Hey, I've been using Kangvip rom for the Mate10Pro from this (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/help/kangvip-rom-t3738379)
It comes rooted with Supersu, and got TWRP up and running.
Now I thought of comming back to the stock version of the phone, and having a problem with that.
First my bootloader is unlocked and FRP is locked, Enable Oem unlocking in Devs Settings is off and greyed out, when trying to flash from the full OTA (from this website)
http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=bla-l29C432B129&firmware_page=0
Based on my Version BLA-l29C432B129
When I try to flash something, an error appears with Command not allowed, I read that I should relock the bootloader so I did try, but got the error " Root type is risk" so it didn't work.
Same problem in TWRP, everything is SDCARD is encrypted so I can't have a zip or boot image there.
Heard you could system upgrade with inbuilt huawei software, but only allows an external sd card :/
I'd just want to return to stock firmware , stock recovery and unrooted
I will provide as much information as I can!
Kind Regards Felipe

Hello EDA Forums
I am having an issue with my Moto E 2015, after unlocking the device.
I had it unlocked, and accidentally hit the relock button. Now, my device is stuck in the fastboot menu. The only options I am able to do are barcodes, power off, and bootloader logs.
When I try to use the other options, my phone flashes the your phone is unlocked message then closes very quickly.
My phone is locked, and has a status code of 2. I cant boot into the OS, because in the bootloader logs, it says "Failed to validate system image".
Also, after relocking the phone, my oem unlock developer console setting was turned off, so I cant flash in a new operating system.
I already have android sdk, and have been trying to get the phone working.
Thank you so much for your time, Allan

The short story is that you need to reflash the signed stock firmware for your model using fastboot. Assuming you were running the 5.0.2 stock ROM, you should reflash the 5.0.2 stock ROM signed for your device. Don't try flashing a 5.1 stock ROM with fastboot, as upgrading the bootloader will prevent rollback, and could brick your device in certain scenarios that I won't confuse you with here.

Thank you for the reply. The issue is that I am not able to flash a new os, or stock os to my phone, because it is not unlocked. My oem unlocking access was revoked when I relocked the device.

No. Your bootloader will allow you to flash signed firmware for your region when locked. When unlocked, it also allows you to flash firmware not for your region, and firmware that is not signed at all. You just need to flash firmware whose CID matches your region.
Hey all!
I just got my Note 3 (Snapdragon/Kenzo) from DX and it came with global US rom. I checked and its bootloader is already unlocked. I want to update to Miui 8 global dev but I'm worried with this unlock, is there a way to know if it was officialy or unnoficialy unlocked? I want to flash the oficial recovery rom but heard that it can brick the phone if it was unnoficialy unlocked.

It came with Miui 7.3 Stable (7.3.2.0.0 LHOCNDD)
Please, help. =)

That is a vendor rom.
More than likely it is unofficially unlocked, because your only allow to unlock 1 device per month for each account.
Since your bootloader is unlocked, flash an official rom (which might lock the bootloader again).
Don't flash the latest 6.0.1 rom yet as you might not be able unlock with that.
Then unlock officially.
Check the reddit xiaomi wiki for guides.
Got it! Thanks, for your answer. I realy dont mind unlocking, I just want a miui 8 dev(it has a built in root, right?). I just was afraid of what method of flashing I should use with this unnoficialy unlocked bootloader. I'm going to search this wiki for it.
And better do a Alka TWRP backup now, before anything! Then, if you get your bootloader locked, you can always restore the backup to your current status - ROM and unlocked bootloader. I have two Kenzos in the same situation, and that's the way I do it.
Nice! Will do. Can't I just use that recovery to install an updated rom? There is an annoying bug on this version, I can't open my contact or dialer app, they close befero they appear on screen, tried erasing data but no help.
Boot from TWRP without installing it, make the backup (all partitions), then make sure you get the backup on your PC. After that you can install TWRP and make whatever you wish.
And don't forget, if you need to restore, do it without restoring the firmware partition, or else you'll get an error.
Thansk! But I think I will stick with the global dev. Can I flash it via Fastboot (MiFlash)? This unnoficial unlock wont cause any trouble, right ?
This is not an unofficial unlock. Is isn't either official
My phones came with some vendor MIUI's - 7.4.9.0(LHOCNDD), respectively 7.4.18.0(LHOMIDD), but I never flashed another MIUI, just custom ROMs. For what I know, if you flash via fastboot it will wipe the entire partition structure, including boot and recovery, and the bootloader will get locked. In that case you can not restore the backup you make now. You'll have to apply for official unlocking, or go unofficial.

that means.. you recieved an unboxed device, may be refurbished, repacked and resealed and sold $25 costlier than the original. :silly:
Not necessarily. I have two, buyed from a local big online store, both came with unlocked bootloader. Both boxes were sealed, with no sign of foreign hands
I have 7.3.2.0.0 LHOCNDD rom and unlocked bootloader. Can I just type on fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryAlkaUpdate.img
to get twrp(alka)?
Thats work!

I have the same MIUI vendor as you, 7.4.9.0(LHOCNDD), what method did you use to install TWRP? I only want to install AOSP/CM based ROM on this device. I want to flash it ASAP cause this MIUI ROM have a Trojan downloader, which luckily can be disabled.
I used Cofface on first phone, Alka on the second. Before flashing, first boot from TWRP image, make backup of all partitions to the SD card, copy the backup on computer, and only after that flash the TWRP image. After that... flash ROMs

I followed a tutorial that uses ZXC TWRP while on MIUI. Then I flashed ALKA, I'm on Nexus Experience now.
I have a Z5C(E5803) that was originally able to unlock the bootloader and let me flash ROMs, specifically the Cyanogen ROM that CTXz has been working on. I ran out of power and got stuck in some kind of nasty bootloop yesterday that prompted me to re-flash boot.img and TWRP.
After I did these things I left it charging for a few hours and it was able to boot into TWRP where I then restored it to a backup of the basic Xperia pre-loaded ROM.
This all worked fine, thought I could boot into TWRP and just flash the Cyanogen zip again. I can get into TWRP just fine but I attempt to flash Cyanogen I get an "ERROR 7"
I have since done several wipes, gotten into the bootloader settings by entering that code in the dialer and have seen that bootloader unlock = no. I distinctly remember bootloder unlocking being allowed the first time I installed CM on my device, what could have caused this?
I was able to use it with fastboot anyway and install CM13 again, maybe this was a bug?
When I tried using oem unlock command with fastboot it said my device was already rooted even though I had just restored from a backup, and then I just proceeded normally from there.
use CM13 official Recovery to FLASH CM13.
also i don't think so twrp3.0.2 is out there for z5c. are you using any other variants Twrp? (YUGA ? )

In Xiaomi you there isn't any TA partition so you don't have to worry about DRM keys. You can simply unlock bootloader and fastboot flash TWRP recovery and SuperSU binary via recovery to get root access.
I recommend you to unlock bootloader and flash zcx recovery and create a full nandroid backup before mounting system partition. This way you have a complete backup of the current state and you can return to it at any time.
You can install any custom ROM via recovery.
Unlocking bootloader won't void the warranty.
If you want to use marshmallow you can either flash beta MIUI ROM with/without unlocking bootloader or unlock the bootloader and flash a MM based ROM via recovery.
You can return to factory state at any time by either flashing MIUI fastboot ROM via EDL mode on locked/unlocked bootloader or by flashing fastboot ROM via fastboot mode on unlocked bootloader.

I won't recommend you to use kingroot to root the device due to following reasons:
1) I don't trust these shady chinese closed source apps that relies on software vulnerability.
2) If you've rooted by any method without unlocking bootloader you won't be able to flash "incremental" OTA updates as it verifies system partition before flashing. However, you should be able to flash MIUI full recovery ROM that'll overwrite the whole image without verifying for the changes. Unlike OTA it's usually about 1.2GB in size. There's another method to flash OTA without system image verification which involves removal of a few lines from updater-script but I haven't tested it yet on stock recovery.

1) If you want to revert back to MIUI from CyanogenMod, restore nandroid backup. But make sure to backup every partition in TWRP recovery first before any modification. And don't allow system modification on the first boot to recovery. Firstly, create a full backup and then you can flash whatever ROM you like. In case you want to switch back, restore the full backup except "firmware" partition. I suggest you to use zcx recovery. You can find more about it in the xda thread.
2) If you don't have a TWRP backup, you can revert to stock ROM by flashing MIUI fastboot ROM via pc in fastboot mode. You can do the same in EDL mode but it'll wipe everything including internal storage.
3) If you want to install MIUI beta ROM based on MM, you can do that both on a locked and unlocked bootloader. Go to en.miui.com and download the latest beta ROM, put it on your internal storage and use the updater app to install it.
4) If you do the step (3) and want to revert back to MIUI stable based on LP, then you'll face sim detection issue which can be fixed by flashing modem (NON-HLOS.bin) of the same stable ROM via fastboot on unlocked bootloader. This is a bug from Xiaomi side.
5) You can use MIUI beta ROM, actually it's more stable than MIUI stable ROM and most people prefer it over stable.
Hope that helps

Thnk you soo much bro
after i touched some times "miui Version" in about phone and a message appear "you are developper now"
a new menu appear "additional settings"-> "developer options" ->"mi unlock status : Unlocked"
does this mean my bootloader is unlocked? can i flash roms now?
miui global stable 8.2
thanks
You can. Flash stable or custom rom, twrp
Yes,you can flash ROMs now. But first flash TWRP and make backup of your current MIUI installation.
I had the same experience. My newly bought rn4x mido came in with unlocked bootloader. I thought it was strange. I can flash twrp and boot to twrp but i cant reboot to twrp recovery. I had some trouble aswell installing custom rom, though i cant seem to recall where i was stuck. However, worry not, restoring miui via fastboot is easy enough, and you can even lock back the bootloader via miflash/fastboot and then unlock it in the official manner after 72hrs, which i ended up doing, and now running custom rom smoothly.
