Question Bootloader unlock - ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s

So long story short
I purchased the tencent version from a reseller, that had unlocked the bootloader and flashed the WW firmware, changed the FP & then relocked it.
Now I'm f##### and don't know what to do.
Can anyone please assist me with any information in regards to "how to unlock without the unlock tool"
Or, direct me to someone/website that I can pay to have it done.
Muchly appreciated

I know one person who unlock bootloader by Edl Firmware and use some command.

who is he? can he help me?

The rumor is that once the bootloader is unlocked and locked again, it can no longer be unlocked a second time. It may work to flash a new bootloader (which is what the EDL restore does as part of the process).
I would suggest taking a look into https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/repair-your-asus-rog-phone-5-with-edl-mode.4271121/ but know that the directions are pretty rough. Make sure to read everything twice before clicking buttons and if you watch the video, make sure to wait until he moves to the next step before following along because it looks like the video was his first time doing it.

You need to use "SM8350" firehose for my share files. Then hopefully it will work.

So, Is the file that i shared, the correct file?

If I follow, you have the file for a 660 and need the one for an 888.

Sorry, i understand what you mean.. I thought 660 was the snapdragon version, but It's actually the vulkan version.

Question concerning the above.
I unlocked BL, flashed Magisk, but now, without any action from my side I see "unlock OEM" option is not greyed as it was during unlocking BL.
Does it mean it locked itself?
Mentioned rumor I hear first time, but it is good anyway that I've read it early enough, before playing too far with my smartphone.

But there might be a way without writing a new bootloader.
The guy just patched a binary to jump to the same display as if the bootloader was locked.
No big deal but still highly risky.
I do not know how it works on the XZ. And since this does not bother me, I will not invest my time or risk my phone on a solution.

How did u unlock your bootloader on that phone because when I do it it says waiting for device in the adb on the computer and I did everything else right I think any ideas
I unlocked mine by installing fastboot drivers for the XZ2. It kept hanging up on 'waiting for device's too. But worked after installing those drivers. I can't figure out how to flash twrp though. I get error 'no such partition'.

That evil misleading boot screen message for this phone, for the longest time I felt reassured that should the time come that I'd want to sell my phone that I'd be able to "lock the bootloader". I never really looked into it because of that message... Until now, when I want to actually sell it!
Obviously this confirms otherwise. It's a shame I cant just relock it and sell it on

Downgrading the android version with Moto firmware is always a risk.
If you downgrade you need to disable updates, OTA updates could brick the device.
Once the bootloader is unlocked, find your
Software Channel, it will be like, Retail, RetUS, Verizon, metroPC
You can find your firmware here
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/sofiap/official/
download. and Unzip it
Check if your device uses fastbootd
Flash option 1
Find the flashfile.xml in the firmware folder
and use the online flashfile converter to get the flash commands
add the fastboot reboot fastboot commands if you have a fasbootd device.
Flash Option 2
Install LMSA
use the rescue option to download the current firmware for your device
move the LMSA firmware to a different folder
rename the Android 10 firmware folder to the same name as LMSA firmware.
Move that folder to LMSA download folder
Use the rescue option to flash renamed firmware.
There is no guarantee that either method will work, but they should.

Yeah, I've heard this is risky, but I'm willing to take the risk because Android 11 ruined my phone and basically added 3 or 4 years to the battery of a phone that I only had for 7 months and was working great before this crap.
And once again, Thanks for this help. I appreciate it very much, even if it doesn't work.
And I had a question before I proceeded. There was an update that came along with Android 11 from Motorola on that same day. The update basically changed my look screen, peek display. Doing all this should get rid of that too and make everything look how it did before the update?

Question is it possible to root P11 pro gen 2?

I'm looking to purchase this tablet, but want to be sure I can root it before doing so.
The one I'm looking at has the MediaTek Kompanio 1300T processor
I just want to be sure i can remove any factory installed apps, and can install magisk (or similar for tablet) and adblock.
i don't necessarily care about a custom ROM, but lineageOS or AOSP would be a good option, if available.
Thanks

Yes, I tried several times. Nothing happened. It just doesn't unlock the bootloader.
There is another thread I've posted to about this with more stories from others.
I don't think there is much risk of bricking your device, but it is just unlikely to get rooted.
But, maybe you find something I did not and you will be successful.
I really liked the tablet, but refuse to be crippled by a manufacturer that pretends to be protecting me from ... I'm not sure what.
I rooted mine and it was a mistake.
I do not really gain anything out of it and now I cannot update my device anymore.
Do not do it.

You can rename the zip as you want, it won't change anything, the information is in the zip.

Precisely, OTA allows to update with a recovery rom, not to downgrade.

No need to post You tube videos showing that everything is possible and easily circumvented.
I know many who regret having used You tube tutorials before asking the questions on XDA.
The safest way is to unlock the bootloader.
Please note that on the video at 7 minutes 36 we see the poco padlock which is open, which means that the bootloader is unlocked.

I recommend these roms, better than stocks (call recorder, full themes, etc).

Hi, I decided to unlock my BL and willing to wait for 7 days. I just want to ask is it ok to use my current Mi account and cellphone number when unlocking my bootloader? Because, I think, I already used this account before when I unlock my Poco F1 few years ago.
