have you tried going into your stock recovery and just do a regular factory reset?
@jorge3687: First try a factory reset as suggested by Arju. If that doesn't work, sideload an OTA image to restore your device. The OTA images don't require an unlocked bootloader.

i have searched high and low for help on this one and can't find anything similar.... Though I found one thread that suggests I attempt the HTVDEV unlock code 5 times in a row.. Which did not work.
I returned my phone to stock several weeks ago. Locked the boot loader (see pic#1) Then I had something weird happen , where The phone rebooted to a "enter password to decrypt"??? I never encrypted my phone. So I read the only way around this was to do a factory reset. So, I rebooted the phone into bootloader and attempted a factory reset. The phone then rebooted and is frozen on the HTC splash screen. See pic#3
I have attempted to unlock the bootloader so I can flash a good recovery (which I cannot access, then will just reboot)
So basically I only have access to fastboot. When I plug in the phone into windows, I cannot access through ADB. (Same thing in Linux)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Have you attempted an RUU?

I could not get an ADB connection. I attempted to flash a new recovery, but of course with no root, s-on and bootloader locked... no dice.

Yeah and all you can do from fastboot with those restrictions is, erase cache. Erase it like 3 times in a row and see if it works, who knows. I flashed cwm recovery which sometimes gets me into recovery, like 1 out of 10 recovery flashes. then you are allowed to finally use adb commands
Hi Guys,
Would appreciate some help, though I realise I may be out of luck. My device is rooted with twrp installed, I thought i'd lock my bootloader so that the new killswitch / device reset protection would have some use.
Basically, it's now stuck in a boot loop. I get a flashing teamwin (twrp) logo when I try to turn it on, that's all. Here's the kicker, I can't unlock my bootloader again because I didn't have "allow OEM unlock" ticked in the developer settings.
Anyone have any ideas? I don't care if I lose my data, just panicking right now.
My Thanks!
Someone smarter than I can tell you how to use fast boot to unlock your boot loader.
TLDR: someone can help you that someone is not me. Worry not.

Its locked. Wont unlock because allow OEM unlock in android is unchecked. This setting is crazy
Thanks for the replies guys, anyone else got suggestions? Would motorola fix this if I sent to them? I assume they must have some development tools or qualcomm software that could do it.

I would assume they could.
The same thing happened to me and I thought for sure I was completely shafted. Turns out you can get back into your device by doing the following:
fastboot format users
fastboot format cache
I then rebooted the phone and voila, back into Andriod where I can click that unlock setting off and try installing the custom recovery yet again.
Ok so, this is my first post on xda, and because my (sprint) Nexus 6 is stuck on a boot loop. When powered on, goes to googles boot animation, then says "Android is starting... optimizing apps # of 127, and then once it reaches the end, it just goes into the animation again. I somehow have usb debugging disabled, and oem locked. I have no idea what i did to cause this, but esentially I unlocked the phone, and rooted it, and then i tried to disable encryption, and thats where things went south. clearing chache does not help, niether does factory reset. Attempts at flashing factory images are fails. even the guy at sprint cant do it. Besides fixing it, my only other option is to send it in to google and get a reaplacement...for $200. PLease help me solve this issue and i will be eternally grateful :3

OK. So...do u know how to use fastboot? If yes...do a fastboot format data and fastboot format cache..also...do u have stock recovery or twrp?
I got that bootloop when I flashed a bad boot image. Easily fixed by flashing a good one...
But, let's clarify a couple of things:
Did you relock your bootloader while flashing?
Do you have a custom recovery (TWRP)?
If the answer to both of those are "yes", you might get out of this by using these commands:
fastboot format userdata
fastboot format cache
This will allow you to enter TWRP and restore a backup or flash a ROM.
If you didn't relock your bootloader you shouldn't have any problems flashing. Clarify what your trying to do, please (are you using a toolkit, etc).
If the answers are 1-yes and 2-no, then your probably SOL.

There is currently no know way of fixing it.
Your only avenue is to RMA it.
So I'm currently running the newest version of Blisspop on my phone. I was at work earlier this evening, and my phone rebooted. However it never came back. Its stuck on the "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" screen. I was able to access fastboot, however whenever I would choose anything it would immediately go right back to the warning screen. Except when I choose recovery. It goes to the recovery splash logo, and freezes there. I don;t know what to do, as I don't have USB Debugging enabled on the device. Is there anything anyone can do to help me? Thanks guys!
Better you flash stock firmware via fastboot mode by PC and take a complete backup of stock ROM before you proceed.
I would, however, I can't enable USB Debugging.
Hello,
Yesterday I've decided that the Stock ROM was just an actual mess and decided to install a Custom one.
I have "experience" as I've done it in the past with Nexus, Sony, Motorola. But is the first time I come back to this stuff after some time, so I didn't follow all the events.
Said so I've basically unlocked the bootloader, following the usual steps and everything went well apparently.
The FRP was already red, and as well the Unlock bootloader from green became red.
I've rebooted the phone and I was "welcomed" by the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted".
The phone rebooted and everything was deleted? lost all applications and the GAPPS are missing plus all the Huawei one.
Even weirder The keyboard never Pops-out, meaning I can't literally do anything. I tried all the following then:
Ok no panic...let's enable the Developer Option. Clicked 100 times on Build Number and nothing happens...
I was able to fastboot the phone and apparently flash the TWRP, as no error was raised, but I'm trying in every way to boot into recovery to install a custom ROM and it just doesn't. I always end up on that panel "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted".
From here I tried to go back into the Huawei recover interface ( Power button + UP/DOWN) and chose to recover the original Software, but of course it fails.
Ok... an other idea. A simple factory reset? Well it asks me for the PIN and I can't type anything due to the missing keyboard
I typed one of those special codes and chose factory reset. It says I can't do it because of lock screen which is activated. To remove it...I need to input the PIN
tried to fastboot boot twrp.img and no luck
installed FLashify but doesn't allow me to click anything
Kingo root fails at 90%
Offical TWRP download the twrp.img from somewhere but I don't get any option to search the .img path and load it, or whatever the app should help you to do
I am out of idea and with a Macbook available.
Cheers!
You could search for a keyboard on Play Store with your voice. If you don't have a microphone symbol in Play Store search bar, try flashing a bigger Gapps.zip which probably would include Google Voice Recognition.
EDIT: If you still can't manage it, flash the stock erecovery.img to your recovery partition, then do a restore from there. It will download stock firmware and format your data.

Hi
In case someone still searching for solution, had the same problem, you need to relock bootloader using "fastboot oem relock #unlockId" then enable oem unlock from developer's options, unlock again in fastboot and you're good !
With HI SUITE
Hi
Install Keyboard APK (swiftkey for example) with HiSuite (http:/ /consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/)
Unlock the bootloader again.
I already happened to have PHONE Unlocked and the bootloader is locked.
Go to bootloader and use the command (fastboot oem device-info) and you will have the bootloader information.
