Hi
I had Moto G XT1068 with stock rom, bootloader locked and no root.
Then I decided to follow this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/tool-moto-g-xt1068-andoid-l-updater-t2964933 to install Lollipop with root and bootloader unlocked and worked fine but I couldn't get acess to 3G, the dialer wasn't working and I faced a few more little bugs so I decide to downgrade to Stock rom again and followed thus tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/restore-to-stock-t2873657
Now I can't pass the bootloader unlocked logo. I have acess to fastboot and I have Philz recovery installed. I searched and found some tutorials to unbrick the phone but I'm a little afraid to follow the wrong one and do worst.
Can you help me please? Is my phone soft bricked or hard bricked? Can I have hope?
Thanks to all.
PS: my english is not perfect, if you don't understand something please say.
hey xda world,
first this is my first post ever on this forum and i cant hold myself of being amazed from how helpful and smart the people here,
my case is kinda hairy so bare with me
now lets get to the mess, so i got yesterday myself a p9 *EVA-L09C02B123/Vodafone*, unlocked its bootloader then installed twrp and root, after doing the process i tried to lock the bootloader because of the annoying message at the bootup, but i couldn't because of an error from fastboot {Root type is risk}.
i looked up the error around the interwebs and xda ofc, and somewhere i found that relocking can only be done if all the partitions are oem/stock, so i decided to get rid of the twrp and flashed back the default recovery from the SRK Tool and still couldnt relock it.
then i started to look for stock roms and couldn't find a stock for the L09C02, so i tried the dload B136 and it failed at 50%, knowing that oeminfo dictates which version the phone should get, i got the C432 one and flashed it using twrp, did factory reset and i noticed the vodafone boot logo being replaced by the default huawei, at this point the build became *EVA-L09C432B123* and tried the b136 dload and still no luck and failing at 50%.
please help ! :crying::crying::crying:
Welcome to xda
Does your phone still boot? And what is it you are trying to achieve right now? Relock your bootloader?

my phone does boot, and yes i want to relock for the reason i might want to sell it but having that boot message is kinda cringey for non power users.
also an update on the case, yesterday after posting this thread i downloaded an update zip from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67122856&postcount=47
then i flashed the zip using twrp and succeeded, now the version is L09C432B136 but still no luck locking the bootloader.
Possible bad download? Try downloading the whole stock rom again.
Any error messages?

this is not a fix to lock the bootloader as that is hardware level not software level. Use the tool DC-Unlocker or SRK Tools, look on the other threads under Huawei P9 and you will find these two options to lock the bootloader again. I have already done it on mine after de-branding and network unlocking my (what is now a....) EVA-L09C432B136
If you can boot and have the correct version, I'd say try a factory reset, download that full stock rom again and try flashing. I don't see why that shouldn't work. Unless there is something different hardware wise about those branded ones...
first must remove root via super su, then flash stock recovery then relock
I get a "root type is risk" when i relock with SRK Tool, any idea?

Actually AFAIA flashing the stock rom will relock the bootloader.

i had an issue trying to update from B136 to B166 and i ****ed up everything
Only solution i found was to dload with stock rom B136 provided by PaulObrian in dev section, successfully, and guess what ? bootloader was locked again
Hi fellows,
I bet that this request is a tough one. Does anyone know a way to unlock the bootlaoder of P10 without having to fully wipe the phone ?
As of now, impossible on any phone except for OnePlus One due to a bug.
I have a P10 vtr-l09 Vodafone UK, I rooted the phone a few months back without really reading about it to much, now I want to unroot the phone and relock bootloader and go back to stock so I can update to oreo, I have tried many methods and nothing seems to work at all, I am at a loss of what to try next, can anyone please help me
RE: Huawei's bootloader codes
Currently I have a stock non-rooted EVA-L19 which is currently out of warranty.
I'm planning on rooting it soon (I'm unable to download required files due to bad internet) and with the recent changes in Huawei's bootloader code requests, is it possible to generate the unlock bootloader code now then hold unto it till the day I decided to root the phone?

There is one and single bootloader code for unlocking and relocking. It is bound to your device ID, it has no timestamp or expiration day. Keep it on the safe place, once you get it, you can reuse it for unlocking/relocking/unlockung as many times as you want, whenever you want - for your particular phone.
Be aware, unlocking or relocking triggers hard reset with wiping Internal memory. For hard reset you must be on stock TOM, unrooted, with stock eRecovery - that is, if you ever want to relock (or want to initiate hard reset), you will have to unroot before that, return from custom ROM to stock, and re-flash stock eRecovery before relocking/hard resetting (otherwise you risk to brick the phone).
^ thanks for the reply. I thought unlock codes were generated randomly similar to keygens
I went ahead and generated the code.
I'm aware that unlocking the bootloader triggers the hard reset, learnt it the hard way on my nexus 7 2012 yrs ago -_-
Thanks!
