Hi, I had unlocked bootloader of my EVO 3d(Vodafone AU) using HTC unlock method.
Today, while relocking the bootloader, i get contradicting msges as Lock successfully and also FAILED. As u can see the attached IMAGE.
Although the HBOOT now shows RELOCKED at top, I now have another line at bottom that reads SECURITY WARNING.
I am not sure if this is normal. please help me
and also the only way i can factory reset my phone is by unlocking my bootloader.
Selecting factory reset in bootloader and also under phone storage setting does nothing.
what is the problem?

On phones I've had in the past, when I officially unlock the bootloader, it shows some warning or boot image saying that the bootloader has been unlocked every time I boot the phone.
Does the AT&T HTC One do this? I ask because I'm concerned about buying one, unlocking it, and then needing to return/exchange it.
If you unlock the bootloader and it does show the boot image or warning, can you make it go away by simply relocking the bootloader?
Like 6 months ago i unlocked the bootloader and unlocked the simlock too.
But now I wanted a custom rom that required locked bootloader, so i locked it.
That's where my problems start. It isn't in fact locked, but it cannot be unlocked again, because s1tool now doesn't recognize my bootloader, therefore cannot unlock it (Flashtool doesn't help either). And the worst part: now it doesn't accept any SIM.
How can I reset this phone now to a state, where it becomes usable again?
Hey guys,
I got a problem.
Bought a second hand z2 today and it sayt it got a update 17.1.2.A.0.314
When I dontload it it sayt cant verify,same with pc companion,but then it says this phone has custom software or something.
I suspect,unlocked bootloader,but when I try to relock bootloader with flash tool it sayt,this phone can not be unloaded officialy?
Someone know how I can fix this?
and is there a way how to check if bootloader is unlocked,like Samsung when u boot with power button and volume up.
Thnx
Go to your dialer and enter *#*#7378423#*#*. Then go to Service Info -> Configuration. What is indicated under Rooting status?
If it says "Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes", this means that your bootloader is still locked but can be unlocked.
If it says "Bootloader Unlocked - Yes", then it means that your bootloader is already unlocked.
If it says "Bootloader unlock allowed - No", then it means your bootloader can never be unlocked.
If your bootloader is indeed unlocked and you want to flash stock firmware, you cannot use PC Companion. You need to use Sony Flash Tool instead.
I faced the same problem. If you have modified any system files (like build.prop) or removed/uninstalled any system apps, then it will error out with the "can't verify".
Just revert all changes you made, re-install and system apk u removed, and try again.
Unlocking bootloader wasn't allowed on my phone, but I decided to give it a try anyways. Flashtool reported that the unlocking process was finished, but the progress bar was stuck somewhere at the half-way point for 10 minutes or so. After this, rooting status in the service menu changed to Unavailable, and I can't tell whether my bootloader is unlocked or not, or somewhere in between.
I tried flashing a custom rom, it gets stuck indefinitely on the animated boot screen, but I don't get any errors, crashes, or warnings while installing the zip in TWRP.
I noticed that after the "unlocking" procedure, my phone takes significantly less time to boot and the interface seems to lag less.
So what is going on here? Have I really somehow unlocked my bootloader?
Try relock bootloader, and unlock bootloader again
I have the same issue
I want to unlock my bootloader and in status it says available no or when i tried to unlock it it says unavailable
Please help
Mine too.
I can only use my Sim slot 2 (slot 1 is not working)
I need help.
I tried installing the new marshmallows from Xperifirm but still not working.
Rooting status: UNAVAILABLE
"Bootloader unlock allowed: no", but on a phone that was previously unlocked??
Hi all,
I have a Z5C and I unlocked it in the past. At the time I needed online banking and got annoyed with not being able to hide the fact my phone was rooted, so I restored stock Android 7.1.1 onto it.
I came back to this after a year or two and thought that I could just root the phone again. Lo and behold, it now says the bootloader cannot be unlocked and everyone says that means it's the end and nothing can be done.
Is that true? Is it possible to unlock the bootloader, but then permanently re-lock it somehow? That seems really strange to me, but perhaps that's what happened. Anyone else have any input on whether this can be reverted somehow?
Thanks,
