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?
Hi I've tried searching about quite a bit but can't seem to find the correct solution.
I've had the bootloader unlocked once by following DoomLords instrucions but locked it as an upgrade popped up on my pc companion, now I can't seem to unlock it again.
I've followed the same process as before, even through the sony bootloader unlock site (this gave me the same unlock key as before) I've attached my error from the command prompt screen.
Anyone??
the screenshot is not readable.
maybe you forgot to remove the last number form the unlock key.
or flash a firmware first then try again
Sorry here's another screen.
I tried to re unlock the bootloader after an update via pc companion, it didn't work then.
I've now flashed ICS onto the phone with flash tool and unlocking the bootloader still doesn't work.
I've tried taking the last digit off the unlock code, with no luck!
Random post to keep the thread alive, hopefully someone will know whats up
Last try, anyone?
You're not using 0xFFFFFFF as the key are you?
No definitely not. That was the error the 2nd time round trying.....
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?
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

I need help.
I tried installing the new marshmallows from Xperifirm but still not working.
Rooting status: UNAVAILABLE
Hi people!
I know, I'm completely newbie in this.
But I'm getting in trouble and confused about it.
The question is simple:
What's means FRP lock / unlocked and Phone lock / unlocked?
And what's the difference between them?
FRP means Factory Reset Protection. If locked your phone will be protected of unauthorized factory resets. If a stranger tries to reset your phone, the phone will ask for your Google password on startup.
So if you unlock FRP you will lose that protection but this is required too unlock your bootloader (that's what you called phone locked/unlocked).
Phone locked (bootloader locked) means that you cannot make any changes too the partitions of your phone for example the recovery. So you are required to unlock your phone to install custom recoveries and ROMs like TWRP or RR etc.
Hope I could help you clear some things up.
If you're planning to sell your Android phone, make sure to remove your Google account from it first or else the next owner wouldn't be able to use it.

actory Reset Protection (FRP) is a security method that was designed to make sure someone can't just wipe and factory reset your phone if you've lost it or it was stolen. Starting with Android Lollipop, FRP is "standard" in vanilla Android, and most companies making our phones have implemented it in their own models.Mar 29, 2016

Hi everybody,
My question is going to sound stupid, but now that I've got the unlock code for the bootloader, how do I unlock the FRP?
It is to this part that I am lost.
Sorry but I'm not very young anymore and not healthy. I had a big car accident and am much more on my phone and my computer

Hi,
OK so I activate the OEM to unlock the FRP.
And for unlocking the Bootloader I can use Huawei Multi Tools?
Should I delete my Google Account or Huawei before doing these manipulations?
I do not have fingerprint or pattern lock.
Thanks in advance for your answers.
This video is for the Honor 8, but the same steps are used to unlock the bootloader on the Honor 9.

I unlocked the bootloader. Done on the instructions of the website:https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/step. After unlocking bootloader on my phone fastboot appeared the inscription "PHONE Unlock" and "Unlock FPR". On my device sprosili settings. After that, I re-entered entered the Google account, but the phone then began to hang periodically. I went into developer mode, done a factory reset there. And decided to turn back. Went to fastboot, blocked Downloader. Phone rebooted, then on the screen appeared the inscription: "Relock PHONE" and "FPR Lock". Out of fastboot, there was a black window where it says to restore the system through recovery in the air, but when I try to do fails. Help me, please!

First you should try the HWOTA procedure without rebranding.
