XT1064 on Lollipop. How do I relock bootloader?

My bootloader is currently unlocked and I want to relock it. I have an XT1064. I've tried downgrading to 21.11.17 and following the instructions for KitKat but it never works. What can I do?

Unfortunately I have yet been successful doing this. I think it's because some parts of the firmware can't be downgraded. I keep getting pre flash failure

i did just for kicks... and was successful on XT1069.
from what I understand when this problem happens, is related to the ROM you used to do the process that is described in this thread follow these step with a ROM that is perfect and will succeed.
I did with the good xml ROM for my device and it was perfect.
try other ROM xml file... all i now here
One thing, to receive an OTA is not need to be with bootloader locked...
But you must have a untouched original ROM and Recovery installed on the device...
So no root original ROM and recovery just that.
I say this because many worry that is need to have a locked bootloader to receive OTA, and is not.

Have you tried locking after being on 5.0 firmware

I don't remember (i think was 4.4.4 to 4.4.4)... but i will try (5.0.2 to 4.4.4 and lock it) and report. OK, maybe today if not tomorrow...
In theory is the same friend of my did form 5.0.0 to 4.4.4 no problem...

Pretty sure you can only relock 4.4.4 bootloaders (motoboot.img) with the oem lock
If you have updated to a lollipop 5.0.x bootloader you cant downgrade from a 5.0 boot loader and hence cant relock it (yet?)

You can downgrade if use a ROM or a backup to update. the bootloader will remaining the same.
I dont know if you update via OTA to L if the OTA is updating the boot loader...
But yes you can downgrade from 5.0.x to 4.4.4 regards the bootloader if did not update don't see way will not re-lock, if update the OS and bootloader maybe because will not recognize the OS and ROM even if it is all original, but i think it should...
I will tested and report... downgrade and re-lock the bootloader... But my bootloader is the same version it did not update because i use a ROM or a TWRP backup do upgrade to L.
I will update the ROM i using do a clean flash, before i will try the downgrade and re-lock process. :good:

yeah i'm talking bootloader I know you can go up or down between 4.4.4 roms and 5.0 roms , i've tried mfastboot, fastboot (different versions) as people say 'only this version works' and so far not found anything that works

Ever since I upgraded to 5.0 then downgraded 4.4.4 I can not lock the boot loader. I don't think anyone will be able to until there is 5.0 firmware

[Q] Which bootloader is required for a custom rom of 5.1 or 5.0

i have a XT1058 MOTO X 2013 Bootloader unlocked with latest TWRP recovery+root on Stock 4.2.2 rom I havent upgraded from 4.2.2 So I am on the 30.B4 bootloder. Now my question is will I be able to flash any rom on this bootloader? like im going to flash 5.0 and maybe 5.1cm nightly.. Now I want to know if i have to upgrade my BL to 30.B7? or the 4.2.2 30.B4 will work fine? I cannot proceed without getting complete information about the booloaders. Also I will flash CM11 before flashing the CM12. Please help. Please tell me which bootloader supports most custom roms and also let me know if i update my phone to 4.4 will my bootloader get locked? i cant risk getting locked again. I HAVE TO KEEP MY BOOTLOADER unlocked any how. Please tell me what should i do in detail... Thanks in advance.

BUMP
*****Edit****** Got the answer to my question the most common bootloader that is required by the custom roms is the stock 4.4.4's bootloader.. So first flash KK 4.4.4 FIRMWARE if you want to flash various custom roms....

sorry dude, sometimes it gets dead in here ,just gotta accept the fact.
How did you unlock your BL? via moto website? BL is permanently unlocked if so. And once BL unlocked, you can flash whatever custom rom you want man.
Go ahead and jump to 4.4.4 and check it out, 5.1 is here so might as well.

You are absolutely right... but now someone told me that i dont really need to care about the bootloaders... Because the Custom Rom probably flashes the required bootloader during the flashing process.. So im going to flash Cm11 on my 4.2.2 bootloader and then Aicp 5.1.x and I'll let everyone know how it goes... thanks man

and my BL is permanently unlocked man. Thanks for your help :good:

good job man:good:

AOSP custom ROM downgrade

Hi guys. I have a (Non bricked!) Xt1068. My question is as follows: I know that installing Android 6.0 OTA and then downgrading to LP will brick the device because of the bootloader downgrade. If I install a custom ROM such as AOSP-RRO-6.0.1-20160402-titan-vidhanthbafna and try and downgrade using AOSP-5.1.1-20150531-titan-luk-OLD for example. Will I brick my phone?
