Hi everyone,
As precised in the title, I'm not pretty sure about the right method to adopt to revert back to stock (stock ROM, unroot, lock bootloader) in my situation.
I searched the forum, with several answers, but I'm not sure.
Can someone confirm me the right method please?
Thanks a lot
You cannot re lock your boot loader as it is forever unlocked.
You will have to find a unrooted stock ROM that will revert the OS back to normal without root.
But unfortunately you're forever unlocked

find your file Here depending on your location and flash it with rsd. there are plenty of tutorials around if you need one.
as stated, you cant re-lock the bl.
Hey guys, im new to this forums so first of all, hello everybody.
so, i have this xperia l, and im not new to android devices, and i want to flash a kernel and a rom (more specificly, thunderzcap and ios7)
the problem is, i cant unlock my bootloader. In that screen after you type that weird combination of numbers in the dialer it says that i just cant do it (not allowed). I read it somewhere that i need my simlock code and something else, but according to what i know (and i dont want to believe t) this means it is permantly locked.
So anyone here knows how to solve it? I would defenitly love to unlock the bootloader so i can flash a kernel... or im stuck with my phone? i know there are other roms but it isnt the same thing...
Thanks in advance
If it's locked there is no going around it. So answer is no, if it says on the phone that bootloader is locked you can't unlock it. And there are NO roms that work with locked bootloader. For you to be able to flash a ROM on it you must have unlockable bootloader.
Sorry to give you bad news but that is way things are in your case.
Nothing you can do.................for now.
If we can get CWM going on the phone, we can flash packages. From there, if this can be extended to our phone, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2595238 then we can run CM variants on top of stock, and thus there is hope for the locked bootloader people, like myself, hopefully.
Hi guys,
It might sound dumb but I was wondering if it was possible to relock the bootloader while keeping root.
In fact, I did not want to modify my Honor 8 that much too soon but I enjoy playing some games on my phone using a pad, I did not want to spend alot so I just went with a pad I already have, the DualShock 4. It works well except the button mapping in native Android games, that's why I have to root to use Sixaxis app to solve the issue.
So I may have to root my device soon but I don't plan any other modification to the system atm and I particularly hate the warning message when you boot (gosh, I hated it on my Moto G but it was easy to replace).
That leads me to the thread title: Is it possible to root and then get rid of the unlocking message (relock the bootloader or anything else would be okayish)?
I just want to get root access on the phone for my gamepad issue and eventually setup some typical things such as a real adblocking solution (DNS66 is not bad but hosts file is still the way to go imo) and maybe Xposed.
Is there a way to reduce the modification on the phone? (Thus the idea of relocking it, I was thinking that maybe, once relocked it won't show the message. But maybe relocking just wipe the phone again? (as unlocking it does))
Thank you guys
thats possible to relock bootloader .but if u used flash custom recovery and SuperSu.zip to root your phone , after rooted device , please reflash stock recovery vi fastboot and relock your bootloader
I don't think it's possible to relock the bootloader and keep your device rooted.

It was possible with the Nexus 5 and a few other phones to root it and then relock it. Obviously the only way to know if that's the case on this phone is to try it. But you just have to make sure that the stock recovery is there instead of twrp before relocking.
One brave soul needs to try it though. [emoji4]

Well, I'll wait until someone who has a rooted device give it a try.
That screen would really annoy me... I always thought it was dumb to put that kind of screen... Damn, no need to remind us that it is unlocked if WE DID IT OURSELVES.
Hi everyone. I've unlocked the bootloader on my honor8 dual SIM UK version and I tried to activate android pay and it won't let me since the device is not trusted anymore coz of the bootloader being unlocked I was wondering if I could relock the bootloader so that I can start using the android pay. I was told by someone that if I flash MY device with the the custom ROM namely ( FRD-L09C900B120 ) EMUI 4.1 android version it should work for u. To be honest I completely forgot how I unlocked the bootloader in the first place. The problem is that I can't find the file mentioned above anywhere. If u think that I need to use a different method to achieve what I'm actually after I would definitely give it a go. Just need someone to guide me. Thanks in advance.
Hello everyone, I have questions. I will be happy if someone could help me understand Android better.
Edit: find most answers here https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/21460/what-does-fastboot-oem-lock-do, the following remains:
Is locked OEM equal to locked bootloader?
If not, which is more serious e.g. undesirable when using rooted custom ROMs?
Is it possible that booting fresh custom ROM will lock bootloader (or OEM..) back without asking? just like this happened to me with stock firmware
Is it dangerous if bootloader gets locked and I use TWRP?
