[Q] A Query Regarding Bootloader & Update. - Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Few moments ago I flashed stock firmware & locked the bootloader. But still when I reboot the device, the 'warning unlocked bootloader' shows up. However, when I enter fastboot mode, it shows Device locked & Status code = 2.
I am not worried about 'warning unlocked bootloader' message, all I want to know is that will I receive L update when it will be officially released ? Or I won't be able to get OTA because it gives 'Unlocked Bootloader warning'
Please clear my doubt.

[Q] Wt19i - Question regarding access to fastboot & unlock bootloader

For the sake of this question I have a locked bootloader on a wt19i. The phone is rooted. (It's my friend's phone but I'm voicing a theory). It can't enter fastboot mode and the bootloader unlock status is: not allowed.
Armed with the IMEI number,
If I did a TA backup via Octopus Suite 1.0.3,
Then, (following methods seen in this thread: http://goo.gl/QNKxS Third post down.) to force the phone into fastboot, start a firmware (re)install in PC Companion. During that process the phone will enter fastboot mode. If I stop the process there [in Windows Task Manger], then the phone will get stuck booting only into fastboot mode (until I finish putting firmware .tft back on it).
THEN I use SE Bootloader Unlocking v1.6 {Found here: http://goo.gl/JxDmY }. I give it my IMEI, it gets an unlock code and I connect the phone - in fastboot - and select "Unlock BL" to unlock the bootloader.
Then restore TA, followed by a restore of firmware.
Would this unlock the bootloader or brick the phone?
Corrections and answers welcome.

I checked the thread you were referring to,
the process they are doing there is to access flash mode...
fastboot is completely different, can only be accessed if bootloader is unlocked.
based also on the bootloader unlock status: not allowed, this means phone is network locked, unlocking of bootloader would not work thru available methods in xda.
you would to pay in order to remove the network lock and then unlock bootloader
Would this unlock the bootloader or brick the phone?

This would not unlock the bootloader,
Brick the phone, not sure, but it would probably wont, good thing you have a backup.
You can always do a flashing of stock firmware thru flashtool or wotanserver.

You can't unlock if it says
Bootloader unlock allowed: no

If it says
Bootloader unlock allowed: yes

then you can unlock, look in my signature for a guide.
If it says
Bootloader unlocked: yes

your bootloader is unlocked.
You can check the state if you boot phone up, open dialer, type *#*#7378423#*#* -> Service Info -> Configuration
Please tell us what it says there, then we can help you

The problem is you tried to use that tool and the moment you have typed your IMEI and pressed get unlock code, you lost your warranty. So you have no warranty anymore!!
Now you will have to desimlock and after that you can just hope fasboot is enabled.
Install flashtool, open the installation folder > drivers and install all drivers for all devices. Install the android sdk (please better look in my signature to see how to set up android sdk and flashtool and replace the usb drivers). Then try to enter fastboot mode like explained in the threads

NOT BOOTING up with BOOTLOADER LOCKED

Please help, I was trying to update my Mate 2 L03 to Lollipop (B322) through the MicroSD but I forgot to unlock the bootloader, now the phone is bricked (stuck in the "Huawei" and "Powered by Android" screen). I can get it into fastboot mode, but everything I tried from there failed since I have the bootloader locked. I tried using the HiSuite from Huawei and it's system recovery option, but it says it's not supported.
I need to get the product identification code to get the bootloader unlock code from Huawei and then work it out but I don't know how to get the product code with the phone like this

Nokia 7.1 after RMA flashlock, no recovery

Hey guys,
so I got a Nokia 7.1 that has once been returned to the vendor after an upgrade failed.
My plan was to unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP - easy enough.
However I can't check "OEM Unlock" in developer options. It's simply greyed out.
I also can't enter any sort of recovery mode, it gives me the usual background for recovery (the android with its belly opened) and only says "No command". It then proceeds to reboot after ~15 seconds.
I cant enter the bootloader or download mode with hardware keys at all, gotta do it via ADB.
Long story short: I want to flash TWRP but I obviously can't get rid of the flashlock and neither can I wipe cache or data to reset it.
I've read about reasons for the OEM unlock being greyed out. Without going into details I got two Nokia 7.2 where I am able to OEM unlock, so I really don't think locale or vendor is blocking it.
Got any ideas?
Bootloader must be unlocked, see this . OEM Unlock doesn't work on 7.1.

relock bootloader?

I'm planning on selling my Motorola one, and the bootloader was unlocked. I used the Motorola/Lenovo flashing assistant thing to reflash stock everything, and it worked as I can boot into stock and use it like normal. but when I relocked the bootloader, now it says "your device has loaded a different operating system". it's fully stock. and if I try re-running the flashing tool it says "rsa has detected your device is flash locked, please contact customer service". I can still unlock the bootloader again if I wanted to, but I'm trying to get rid of this annoying yellow message. any fix?

Have you tried to use Motorola qboot?
If not:
Start device in fastboot mode, and
run the following command:
Code:
fastboot oem blankflash
after that, extract and run the Unbrick.bat that I'll leave in this reply, your phone should be on a black screen when running the command, but after running the "Unbrick.bat" it should restart to the unlocked bootloader!

Serious bricked device unable to unlock bootloader or flash firmware, stuck in Fastboot - OnePlus 7T Pro (hotdog)

Hello,
I have a OnePlus 7T Pro (codename "hotdog") that is currently in a non-working state. My goal flash my magisk boot.img which I created, however I accidentally locked the bootloader. Unfortunately, I'm currently stuck and unable to progress.
Here is what I've tried:
I attempted to unlock the bootloader via fastboot with fastboot oem unlock, but received a FAILED (remote: Flashing Unlock is not allowed) message. I understand this usually means the OEM Unlocking option in the Developer Options isn't enabled.
The problem is that I can't access the Android OS on the device to enable OEM Unlocking. The device boots directly into Fastboot Mode and I can't navigate anywhere else.
I tried to flash the stock firmware, but I received an error message stating FAILED (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State). This indicates that I can't flash files to the device while the bootloader is locked.
In short, I can't unlock the bootloader because I can't enable OEM Unlocking, and I can't flash the stock firmware because the bootloader is locked. I'm stuck in a loop and unsure how to proceed.
Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated! I'm open to all suggestions and willing to provide additional details if necessary. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Best regards,
The only thing I have is that my device is shown as connected in cmd and the command list available, other than, the ability to flash
