Hello
So I followed instructions for relock the bootloader but I think I made a mistake now I'm in a big big mess :/
I got a message "Your device is corrupt can't boot", thing is I wasn't rooted anymore I flash some file before relock the bootloader.
The thing is I don't have access to the Fastboot anymore no commands working so no EDL.
The only thing I have access is the Start/Restart Bootloader/Restart recovery
So I wanted to know is there a solution of do I need to contact asus and pay for repair.
Thanks in advance

I appear to be in a conundrum. I'm looking to change the recovery I have from CWM(T) 5.8.0.2 to the newest CWM(T), but my girlfriend insists on that I keep the bootloader locked. I updated it once before but I can't seem to find the instructions to update it again.
Can anyone help me here? and if at the very least, give me some reasons to help me convince her to let me unlock it.
Ignore the girlfriend and unlock the bootloader, it always can be relocked and no one will ever know that it was unlocked! once unlocked use fastboot to flash the recovery of your choice, plenty of guides with commands to do so.
Hello guys,
I have a Moto G, Dual Sim variant.
I decided to lock my bootloader, but even after i locked the bootloader back, the warning on the boot screen won't go
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!

Im assuming you're talking about the screen saying "Warning Bootloader Unlocked"??
If so, unlock your bootloader, get a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP.
Follow the instructions over here:

Download the second zip in the OP, "logo.zip"
Go to your recovery and flash it.
Your Warning Screen should be gone

This will remove the unlock message but if you check on the fastboot screen your phone will still say locked. code 2 Once unlocked you can relock the bootloader but you can never get back to a locked code 0
Forgot to mention that. What he said. Once you unlock your bootloader, it will never be 0. If you try to go for warranty or something like that, I'm assuming that's how Motorola or whatever will know you unlocked your bootloader and hence, voided your warranty.
Thank you everyone, I just wanted to unlock the bootloader because i am giving my Moto to my brother

Thank you so much for help,i manage to found this thread yesterday
Okay so, first things first:
I can boot into both Recovery AND Fastboot
ADB Sideload does NOT work in my TWRP
Tampering bit is true and bootloader unlocked is false
My problem now is;
I need to unlock my bootloader because right now, my phone has no OS. I can't unlock it though because neither fastboot oem unlock works nor through the OPO Toolbox/Toolkit.
I can't flash anything to it right now and I need to find a way to unlock my bootloader, whenever I try to unlock it, it reboots to TWRP.
Please help. <3
adb push yourrom.zip /sdcard
Then just pick the ROM you just copied onto your phone storage using the above command in TWRP and you should be fine.
If that doesn't do the job then you can always use the brick recovery download tool.

Did you try flashing the OPO factory image and then start from scratch?
I kept my phone on charge for a few mins and when I came back to unplug, it was stuck on google screen. tried turning off the device or restarting it but nothing works. The phone was extremely hot. My phone is completely factory stock. the bootloader is locked too. how to recover it now ? please help.
i tried entering recovery mode but as soon as i select recovery it gets back to google logo screen again.
right now i have kept the phone in freezer now.
my bootloader is locked .. can i still unlock it and flash factory image ?
help ?
not a single reply ? bump...
Are you able to communicate with the device using fastboot?
Try flashing the stock images via fastboot
You won't need an unlocked bootloader for this

Try the instructions at the top of the page here https://developers.google.com/android/images
It may work without unlocking the bootloader.

whatever command i use it says OEM unlock is not allowed.
Just throwing out ideas that you may have already tried. If I understand right you cannot get into recovery which eliminates trying to sideload the stock image. Your bootloader is locked and it will not let you unlock so booting into TWRP is out of the question. Are you just wanting your phone operational again? Have you tried wiping/factory resetting with fastboot commands? i.e. fastboot erase userdata or fastboot format userdata.

yes i have tried flashing by giving the fastboot command "flash-all.bat" it starts flashing and it stops in the initial stage by giving error " restarting bootloader" then I get 2nd error " bootloader locked" and process repeats again

both command not working .. same bootloader locked message.
error message " Please unlock the device to activate this command"
anyone else can help ?
I would contact Google customer support. Even though my phone was out of warranty and I was not the original buyer (bought in eBay), they were willing to make a one-time exception for an RMA. I didn't use it because my phone is rooted and I was afraid of being charged for any repairs. As long as your phone is stock and unrooted, you have a chance. Just say that you think you have a hardware failure and while you understand that they are in no obligation to help, you would appreciate anything they can do.
