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

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

Click to collapse
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
hi iv recently bricked my device somehow and htc want £150 to fix it, my fastboot menu says
tampered
relocked
security warning
im trying to reflash the unlock_code.bin to unlock the bootloader, fastboot says it flashed ok and the page pops up on the device and asks me to confirm but just has the same status ( relocked ) even if i power it down after and restart.
i have the origional boot.img system.img and recovery.img but cannot flash as my bootloader wont unlock.
i suspect this device has been flashed with the wrong .img's in the past and thats why it is bricked.
is it possible to flash someone elses backup to the fone or anyway i can re-unlock the bootloader
any help will be greatly appretiated as im the the badbooks with the wife
chris
I cant do anything, cant go to system. My phone is Honor 8 lite, and its nearly hardbricked. I can acces fastboot, but cant do anything there. If I try to go to recovery, it takes me to erecovery where I still cant do anything besides reboot or shutdown. I need help; somehown unlock frp or flash twrp with frp locked (cant flash anything now)
When I try to relock it, it says stat not match. Cant unlock too, says command not allowed. In fastboot mode, its: Phone unlocked, FRP locked. Help !
