View attachment 4629305Good evening, since I upgraded my phone to OPSS27-82-87-3 version I have not been able to block the bootloader again, when loading an image it says boot loader error security patch I need someone who has this firmware since I could not block the bootloader of the phone if I do not have this variant, and this link does not work up to 222 Mb and it falls
https://rsdsecure-cloud.motorola.co...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
so download wherever it always generates the same download error
link of the image https://ibb.co/i2tV5q
I need the September patch security firmware opss27.82-87-3 a link that works, without this I can not go back to relock bootloader
Why are you trying to relock your bootloader? And you are not likely able to relock the bootloader. Sometimes flashing the exact firmware already on the device re locks the bootloader but not every time. There is no reason to relock your bootloader. It will not make the device as it was never unlocked for warranty purposes. It will not stop Motorola from being able to see that it was unlocked.

You can do it but there is no point. If your thinking relocking the bootloader will get passed a Moto service center and or sending it in will pass there warranty check your mistaken. if you do a logcat and look through it you will eventually find in the logcat it says your warranty is void. Also requesting the unlock code and using it voids your warranty. each phone has a unique unlock code only made for that phone for it's bootloader. For example me and a friend have the same Moto g6 play but his bootloader unlock code is not the same as mine. Long explain short Your warranty is voided the second you unlock your bootloader it doesnt matter if you relock it. And you can't hide it from moto. And as to what @madbat99 said. There's never been an instance where re-flashing stock firmware at least in my experience has relocked a bootloader for Motorola devices. Not saying your wrong I just personally have not heard that or seen it happen yet. it still doesn't matter though because the warranty is still voided from doing it the first time. I've heard of that happening with some Samsung devices but the warranty was still voided. I'm not sure why people think relocking the bootloader is necessary it doesn't affect the phones performance when It's locked or unlocked

is not to pass it as a guarantee I just want to leave it as it was, also had already been able to block the boot, only for the last update of September I can not block the bootloader for being firmware of July, and the link that there is, the firmware of September does not work download certain part and the connection drops,
Also, with the patch version of July security if I could block the boot loader

I'm going to return my dev edition moto x. Do I have to go through the process of relocking the boot loader or will they accept the return with the boot loader unlocked? I'm curious if anyone has tried this?

Re-Locking the BL won't do any good. They will know without a doubt that you had unlocked previously, since once re-locked, the status can never be changed back to "LOCKED", but only "RE-LOCKED".
Word is that they will honor the warranty on the DEV edition regardless of whether or not you have unlocked.
Additionally, some individuals have reported that Moto honored the warranty on their *non-DEV* editions, even though they unlocked the BL - even though the terms seem to suggest this voids your warranty. I'm certainly not saying that they absolutley will honor it for a non-DEV edition, but the word is that they are honoring the warranty anyways.
The documentation seems to suggest that unlocking an actual DEV edition does not affect the warranty process whatsoever.
Good Luck :good:
I appreciate the reply. I'll give it a shot and see what happens.
Moto's policy for Developer Editions is... Unlocking the bootloader does NOT void the warranty. So there should be no fear of returning it unlocked.
I would just make sure you have flashed to a stock rom and factory reset the device to ensure its a hardware problem before you send it.
Sorry for the question....i've an xt1052 with stock 4.4.4 and i would root it....i'd want know if there is a way to relock the bootloader and restore the warranty?
Even if you could, you still wouldn't get your warranty back. When you unlock your bootloader through moto's website, your IMEI is sent to them and they know that you've unlocked the BL and your warranty is now void.
Also, relocking the bootloader will give you a "relocked" status. Not locked. So they know anyway.

There are 3 states for the Moto X bootloader.
1. Locked Status Code 0 (as it ships from the factory)
2. Unlocked Status Code 3 (when the bootloader is unlocked)
3. Locked Status Code 2 (aka RELOCKED, after you use fastboot oem lock)
If the status is Unlocked or Relocked, you'll get the unlocked bootloader warning at boot up. And we do not have a way to toggle back to LOCKED Status Code: 0.
No matter how you unlock your bootloader (Moto Web site, China Middleman, Sunshine app), if your status code is 3 or 2 (unlocked or relocked), then your warranty is void should Moto or your warranty provider see it.
If you got your bootloader unlock code from Moto's web site directly, the official way to unlock, then they likely also have record in their database that your warranty is void.
Some states or countries may have laws that prevent denying the warranty coverage when the claimed failure is not related to unlocking the bootloader (like micro usb port no longer works to charge.)
And for others who may come across this thread... Unlocking the bootloader on a real Dev Edition X does NOT void the warranty. The OP has an XT1052 which is likely a European X, and is not a Dev Edition.
Thanks for the informations :good:
This is really lame from Motorola, I come from a Samsung Galaxy Nexus where this didn't happen..

The X is no Nexus, nor was it supposed to be.
All current "non-Nexus" Samsung phones have a Knox Warranty flag.
Guys, i've been using many mainstream brands like HTC, Sony, Samsung, etc but im newb to Huawei.
For Sony device, im going to lose DRM keys for good after unlocking BL (not to mention backup TA) and many other features & functions like screen mirroring & camera quality degrade.
For Samsung, the well known Knox.
Im about to unlock my P9Plus but by reading this, quoted frm Huawei bootloader unlocking page, im abit scared of losing Leica image processing for instance.
4．Some functions will no longer work after you unlock the bootloader. For example, you will no longer be able to use Digital Rights Management (DRM) keys and digital content that you have purchased. Upgrading software using Firmware Over-The-Air (FOTA) or a microSD card may fail or your device may not function properly after upgrading.

Can anyone shed some lights?
I asked this before i unlocked my bootloader, as my previous phone was also a Sony.
I was told nothing would be lost, and from what i can tell, the phone still seems the same as it was out of box.
If you do notice anything, please let me know as well.
I haven't received any OTA update, but i can always download and update via SD-Card if i require.
Haven't tried playing any videos on the phone, besides ones that I've taken myself, but nothing i have contains DRM protection so I don't see any issues there anyway.
This is my 3rd Huawei Device after the P8 & Mate 8.
On all the devices I didn't notice any changes after unlocking.
how about screen mirroring & netflix/iflix HD. if im not mistaken netflix wont play HD movies if DRM is absent on device.
Hi, i wan't to temporary unlock BL only to de-brand my P9+. So i'll relock it after the operations. In that scenario, what happens to my warranty? If now I check the warranty status with Huawei services, i receive a message that the phone i regularly under warrenty until xx/xx/xxxx. If i unlock BL that message remains or will change in something as "NO WARRANTY..."
Thanks

If you somehow already have the bootloader unlock code (e.g. from DCUnlocker), then the warranty displayed on the website will not void, at least on my Singapore's VIE-L29C636. But I am not sure through if you get the unlock code via the official EMUI website. Your bootloader's state will become "unlocked", and if you do relock your bootloader, it will show "relocked" instead of "locked". Read my post here to revert it back to "locked" state.

I got my H9L 2 months back and had rooted it (and unlockedd bootloader). Im having a big battery issue battery drains too fast. I want to get it to service centre as waranty is not over.
I've read posts saying if I relock bootloader I'll get waranty back but some says I won't get back warranty even if I relock bootloader.
Can someone sort this out please
IF you've unlocked the bootloader and rooted the device you have no warranty in the eyes of the manufacturer, it states this in the terms and conditions when you get your bootloader code from them.
See when you unlock the bootloader you get a warning screen upon booting the device and relocking the bootloader will not get rid of that warning.
However have you tried to see if the battery issue is intact an software issue. I.e have you wiped caches, checked if an app such as Google assistant WhatsApp Facebook is running in the background. Do you have the same issue when booting android into safe mode????

That's strange. I've relocked it today after flashing compete stock using HuRupdater tool.
I'm not having the warning screen I had earlier when my bootloader was unlocked.
So does that mean I'll be able to claim my waranty now?
And I've tried different ROMs the issue persists.
If they ask if I've unlocked the bootloader(since I've given my product number they might know) I'll just tell that I took the unlock code just in case, as they were shutting it down and that I haven't used it. Well at least that's the plan
So will they know that I've unlocked it earlier if there is no warning screen? As I've told I have complete stock firmware including kernal and recovery like @Fredin_ told.
Please reply fast.
If your no longer showing that Warning message after going back to stock then you can try and claim warranty if you wish, however they might have other ways to finding out if the bootloader has been unlocked.
So put your claim in and see what they do, they will either honor the Warranty or not Honor the Warranty and give you a quote for the work.
Personally if i unlock my bootloader and root it i'd just put up with the issue as i fully knew that the warranty went when i unlocked the device.
But i will leave it upto you how you go about it.
Hello there, I was just wondering if anyone returned their Asus Rog Phone 2 for repair or simply returned it after relocking the bootloader.
On XDA there is a great guide on locking the bootloader here https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/guide-convert-cn-to-ww-rom-26-08-t3961042http://
So would be interesting to see if locking the bootloader is all we need to peacefully rma the phone or does asus have some other sneaky peaky something going on to detect if we ever rooted.
I am perfectly happy with my phone its just some people on my youtube channel were asking if its safe to return after relocking I just said I haven't heard of anyone doing so, so not 100% sure.

Most Android devices have a record in system chip. Once bootloader has been unlocked it will change status from 0 to 1 and even if you relock the device it will still stay as 1. Since you triggered the log thingy. So Asus techs will still be able to find out that bootloader has been touched. For example on Samsung devices they use something called a KNOX chip and when you unlock bootloader on a Samsung S9 or s10 the Knox chip will break and no longer work and status will say that Knox chip has been triggered with 0 to 1. That's how Samsung finds out if you have unlocked your bootloader on their devices. So Asus have probably a way aswell on their end.
You can return the device for repair but repair service will reject warranty repair and will put a price how much it will cost you to repair the device. Since they will see bootloader has been touched. So then warranty is voided.
I returned my 1st one because of no volte. Bl was unlocked, relocked using asus's app before the tool here was available. No issues, got a full refund.
I doubt they wouldn't repair it under warranty, unless it was actually caused by a bad flash, or something.

What Asus app did you use to relock the bootloader? I thought the only way to relock is to use a fastboot command. Asus has an apk for unlocking the phone, haven't heard of one for relocking.

Ah OK no worries. At least now we know that people can safely return or repair their phones if they relocked the bootloader properly. Thanks for responding.
