Relock the bootloader - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Does any one know how to relock the bootloader please on Note 9

Once you unlock the BL on Sammy you trip knox which also kills Samsung pay and other knox apps. Not possible to revert it.
However if you have ticked OEM unlock only and not flashed anything , you can just untick OEM unlock and you are good.

Re-lock bootloader

Hi,
Some time ago I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my device. Didn't know it was possible to root without unlocking the bootloader (yes, i'm quite new to rooting etc.). Now my phone has a defective headphone-jack and I need to send it on repair. Anyone know how to re-lock the bootloader so I still have the warranty?
Currently running sLIM 4.8 by Wajk.
Use flashtool
Thanks, but it says on Sony's website that the phone stays unlocked even after using flash tool?
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Never done it in Sony phone but most of HTC, Nexus and few other brands I'm locking just with this command.

Permanently Unlock Bootloader

Is it possible to permently unlock OEM and Remove FRP From Note 5 .
So there wouldn't be a risk of bricking it by disable OEM Option in developer options (thus rendering the device useless).
I REALLY Think FRP (Factory Reset protection) Is so stupid.
If I wanted to Make my Device Safe I Could Easily UNROOT IT and Add Pin/Password..
At least samsung should give us a a password that we could get on SMS or at the Repair Center by verifying our phone ownership..
There wasn't so many risks with the Note 4 I used to flash hundreds of Roms without worrying about this.
i have the same problem with the stupid frp lock ive done everything dm verification failed and frp lock combo now my expensive note 5 is a paper weight
I have the Note 5 (SM-N9200) and can't get te factory bootloader unlocked to save my life and it doesn't have the OEM unlock feature and CROM Service doesn't work do anything but crash when I open it. I've been up here for like a month trying to get help on it.
Yeah I'd like to figure this out too. I managed to recover my phone after FRP triggered but I'd like to remove FRP and custom binary protection completely to disable development mode without fear of locking. Hope someone will find out how to do it. Also I'm wandering where does FRP live (bootloader, kernel?) and how does it perform custom binary check. Just curious...

Bootloader unlocked not rooted NFC pay not working

I unlocked my bootloader just before the pie update s. I noticed my bank NFC pay stopped working around this time. At this time I don't really need the bootloader unlocked. Is there any harm relocking my bootloader? or possible bricking? If I leave it unlocked how can I hide my unlocked bootloader by rooting ?

This is pretty bad if your bank app thinks that phone is 'rooted' just because BL was unlocked.
If you didn't do anything else (Recovery, eRecovery, Ramdisk, Kernel are still stock), you can relock BL, no harm, it will just Factory reset once again (prepare back-ups)
AFAIK, installing Magisk does not hide from apps that BL was unlocked

Thank you for your response. All are still stock. I just unlocked it a while ago to remove emergency broadcast but did it through ADB instead. No need at this time to be unlocked. Thanks again.

Enable FRP after ROOT!

Is it possible to enable FRP after unlocking the bootloader and rooting the Galaxy note 9 device?
I am worried if my device is rooted and is stolen from someone.
Can I have a protection even if I root?

when u enabled oem unlock it showed a pop up warning u that security features will be disabled if u unoock it..
even if u could enable frp which u cant while unlocked all anyone would need to do is go into dl mode n flash w.e they want anyways...
if u want security then relock the bl and go unrooted

Is it only oem unlocked (unlocked bootloader) or is Knox tripped?
You can relock the bootloader, but you can not untrip Knox.
Here is a thread about it:
