Hello!
I need some assistance for relocking the bootloader of 10 plus.
It appears i get the following:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
Is there a way to Relock it or should i wait for a flashtool update maybe?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello,
Well, I wanted to experiment with Gcam - Camera2api etc and other mods!
Since I can't find yet anything that works with this model, I wanted to re-lock the bootloader and remove the message on start up "Bootloader is unlocked etc etc" and also revert back to original firmware.
I used flashtool - latest version 9.28 (Androxyde) and successfully unlocked the bootloader!
When I tried to re-lock it (As I have done this with previous Xperia phones) I got the error in the 1st post!
If you need any more details please let me know!
Thank you,
John.

I did the same thing using fastboot unlock command. But for now there's no way to fix this. Flashing the stock firmware, does not fix the issue. In fact it worked on some of the previous devices. But this time I don't see any solutions. I even tried so many commands using fastboot. But non of em worked. Let's hope that Sony will release some kind of commands to relock the bootloader.

First.
Is your phone bootloader unlocked?
Problaly not, because unlocking you need fastboot.
Use search google "how to unlock xperia bootloader"
If unlocked then we help you install any rom.

Already said that.
Try unlocking your bootloader again.
Cause your bootloader might be locked.
Press thnx if u like my answer.

It says device must be rooted, what it actually tries to say is bootloader is not unlocked.
Unlock bootloader, or try a kernel which works on locked one

Rooting Status:
Bootloader Unlock Allowed: YES
thats what i see on my system / configuration
Bootloader unlock allowed : yes means bootloader not unlocked.
bootloader unlocked : yes means bootloader is unlocked.
So urs is not, there a sticky in general for unlocking.
Then install it

Hello there, I won't lie, I ask for help, you answer me.
I don't understand enought your method, because it's not well described.
But.. Therefore...
I'm able to root my device.
I'm able to backup my ta partition or my drm keys.
I'm able to unlock my bootloader.
I'm able to restore my bootloader to lock it back.
i'm able to unbrick my phone when it couldn't boot via flashtool.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But I'm unable to install a custom recovery and or even launch the stock on it there was one.
I tried this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647492 (normal boot and no pink led).
I tried this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799388 via flashtool and my phone couldn't boot, even to the SONY logo, but it were vibrating when pushing on the power button.
Anyway, I flashed via flashtool the 14.4.A.0.108 back, now I'm still rooted and the bootloader is still unlocked.

What can I do to install a custom recovery via the 14.4.A.0.108 ?
Or this operation is impossible and I have to downgrade ?
(I read about downgrade and I'm affraid to lose my IMEI)

I'm pretty sure the problem here is that there is a stock firmware development aka the custom ROMs can't just start "taking over from where the devs left off" like it happened with Samsung Devices that get stuck at v4.1.2 unless someone else does something about it.
I guess most things here just are not stable. I hope the stock works out for you. Did you get the rooting done? I found a video tutorial for that here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...de-root-android-4-4-4-ver-14-4-0-108-t2801587

Hello, of course I have done rooting, now I'm back in full stock, nk rooting, just pure sony beauty. And everything works better without root, or it doesn't matter, but the navigation and the use of the device is much smoother without lags
Can anyone confirm if Euro version of G5 has unlocked bootloader ?
If yes are we going to see same leven of developement as 6p for this phone ?
I'll be checking when I get mine.
Could well be locked with option to unlock through LG dev site like EU G4 though...
i seriously cant wait for the arrival of mine..
ofc i'll check for flashability
well i've got mine now. i have yet to figure out if its locked or not.

ok.. installed the lg usb driver..
using adb reboot fastboot..

From the LG Developer Forum:
Hello,
We are planning to support bootloader unlocking for LG G5 for the European market with model number H850 soon.
It will be available this month.
When it's ready, we will let you know via our website.
Thank you.

The EU version is locked out of the box, but some folks are getting email responses from LG stating that they have plans to unlock that version in the near future. They also state that there are no plans to unlock any other variant.
uh. two posts since i edited mine. i managed to get into the bootloader and provided a screen scan (using a scanner.. srsly..)
How come the fastboot oem unlock or fastboot flashing unlock commands don't work on the international model? or is it just me!

i just thought it was similar to the t mobile version where you could unlock however dm verify stops from flashing anything
T-Mobile USA variant has a "semi unlocked bootloader" because you can Unlock it successfully but only write commands on fastboot are disabled
.... Still for few time
Hi all.
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my 8 Flip but am having a couple of issues. First one is that there's no "OEM Unlock" option in my Dev settings. I've tried running the official unlock tool anyay, and it errors out saying "Failed to unlock your device, please try again later.[11006]"
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Solved it - Just had to turn wifi off and use mobile data and it worked
My friend has an error code when unlocking the Bootloader. Do you know why?

To root the phone
where did you buy the phone? Some vendors sell phones that cannot be rooted.
You can see it with the app CPU-Z in System section if you see bootloader : no, you can't root
I was just about to unlock the bootloader to try to dump the recovery.img and use that to create a twrp image.
But there is a big warning saying:
Before you download, install, and use the Unlock Device App (“Service”), you understand that you need to take all risks in terms of quality and performance of the Service, including but not limited to: once you trigger the Service, you’re not able to recover your ASUS products to the original status at the time of manufacturing (“Original Product”) anymore. Original Products which is used with the Service (“Changed Product”) will no longer be regarded as the Original Products. The software updates will not be available to the Changed Product, and the digital content in the Changed Product may no longer be used. (...)

Does this mean I would not get security updates and later the Android 13? I only want to get twrp to be able to root the device. but losing the OS updates would be a big no-no.
Are those who have unlocked it getting updates? Can anyone confirm this?
