do I need to have an unlocked bootloader to flash a custom rom? Or can I use koush's moto a4 bootstrap? And if that's all I need, then with all the ATRIX roms that say to use cwm, can I just use the bootstrap since I can't get cwm? Also what can I and can't I flash using the bootstrap?

Hi,
i'd like to know if is it possible to unsimlock our razr with root? or we really need a unlocked bootloader?
Thanks
The bootloader has nothing to do with SIM locking. You'll need an unlock code from your carrier or a third party site, there isn't a free or easy way around that.

Hey guys, I'm not new to Android but I recently got an evo 3d for cheap. Apparently it was unlocked with htcdev. Its for sprint cdma. Anyways, I was trying to install ICS and for some stupid reason I wiped everything then locked the bootloader. I know even I'm ashamed of myself lol! Any way to unlock HBoot 1.50 with fast boot or at least install a ROM? Any help would be appreciated!
I only have access to the locked bootloader and fast boot btw.
Edit: Flashing an old gingerbread stock ruu via fastboot solved my problem

You should never able to unlock it again with HTC dev and then do the wire trick to get s-off.

I did but htcdev doesn't recognize it for some reason. Their instructions required a booted ROM right? I'll try again lol Thanks for the response!

No luck. Downloaded HTC sync and reinstalling drivers etc. But its recognized in fastboot so I doubt that's the problem.

It said it ran fine but the bootloader is still locked and I'm still stuck.

Hi, I bought the codes from eBay, and I don't know if the warranty is still valid because it is unlocked. So, is there a simple way to lock it to the network again? Or, there is no need to re-lock it because they can't see it its unlocked because I used a code. Thanks

Yes my friend, it is possible .. Just Google it and you will find (can't give you the link now). It's basically insert the network code which you want the phone to be locked .

Thanks for reply, I am googleing it for the whole morning, and I found just one video on youtube, but I want to lock it like it was never been unlocked, to use original codes. do they check it if it is unlocked anyway? Thanks

So as the title states, im new to Unlocking/Rooting an Android Device, I've read all the Guides posted and found that either they had broken links or were just plain useless. I've managed to use Moonshine to S-Off my device, not really sure what that did, its to my understanding that I still need to Unlock my DNA, can't figure out how to do that.
If you used moonshine then you don't need to it unlocks your bootloader, give you root and s-off just need to flash a custom recovery

Ohh so, it doesn't need to say unlocked, tampered in my fastboot screen?

Then moonshine didn't work, go to settings software information and look at software number and tell me what it is

Moonshine removes the lock/unlock display.... only display S-OFF.
