Hi,
as we all know that unlocking bootloader will factory reset the Phone , what about the esim's configured , do they be backed up automatically on next boot? or it will removed and need to scan QR again to add them?
did you find answer?

I have this phone and I contacted Verizon and they gave me an unlock code. The problem is that the phone doesn't ask me for an unlock code. Is there a way to manually input it? Or is there a way to flash the phone completely (besides the format in the settings cause I have done that)? Maybe if I flashed it I would ask after at the first boot...
Hi, can't find info on this anywhere, can anyone please shed some light on my problem? I did a factory reset on my P10, bootloader is locked again which is great but FRP is showing as unlocked in bootloader. When I try to use Andriod Pay it wouldn't work and says bootloader is either unlocked, or I use custom ROM etc...but I'm full stock and bootloader is locked again, I think it's the FRP that causes this. How do I lock it please? Thanks for your help
Edit: I found out I'm on completely different firmware that to what I'm supposed to be(I think). I'm on VTR-L09C432B201 which seems to be Europe region and I'm in UK. Do you think this prevents pay from working?
What is your Enable OEM Unlock option status?
If it's enable, try to disable it, reboot and check FRP status.

It's still the same, it was enabled and I disabled it and no change. I'm just trying to get that android pay to work. Maybe I'll try to force OTA update to 8.0 and see if that does anything??
Hey,
is it possible to view the bootloader unlock code when my bootloader is unlocked already? The reason behind it is that I acquired it back when it was possible, however didn't save it anywhere. My phone is unlocked, running TWRP and rooted. Now I want to reset the device and start fresh, and in case this goes wrong somewhere in the process and relocks my bootloader for any reason I want to save it beforehand, in case it is possible at least.
Couldn't find anything on Google because all that comes up are tutorials on how to get the code on a locked device. And my hope is that it's easier with an already unlocked device, hence the question.
Thanks in advance!
Since there's nobody answering, another question to push the thread: If I boot into TWRP now and wipe the system, data and cache partitions, then install a new ROM - let's say the unofficial LinageOS build - is there any chance the bootloader relocks for some reason? Or am I good to go as long as I don't reboot to bootloader and relock it using fastboot?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Don't think it will relock your bootloader.....but toi certainly received the code by mail so maybe you can check your box history or contact the "seller"...?
Can't find the mail anymore, unfortunately :/ I've changed mail providers without any backups so it's possible the mail went to an address I don't have access to anymore.
Yesterday, I was going to lock my bootloader to cell my Nokia 8 cuz' I needed money. Being the noobie that I'm I didn't have my unlock key saved anywhere. and couldn't get a new one because the stupid Bootloader unlock app doesn't work on Pie. I did know that locking the bootloader doesn't require a key. So I just went with it without remembering that I still had TWRP instead of stock boot img installed. So when I locked the bootloader the phone booted into a screen similar to the unlocked Bootloader warning screen. But it said "Your Device is corrupt. It can't be Trusted and will not boot." Instead. So now I have locked bootloader with TWRP that I can't boot into. I still can boot into fastboot mode but I can't do much Because LoCkEd BooTlOaDeR. The only sulotion is to unlock the bootloader with an unlock key Which I don't have and flash stock boot. So please help. You'll be literally saving my life. This is my first thread ever on the internet so forgive me If I made any mistakes:laugh:
EDIT: I took my phone to the service centre near me and they were able to fix it

Hello! I have the same problem! (((You were not interested in what exactly or how you should do to correct the error? And how much money did you get for repair?
Well you can use original OST not NOST and flash signed images (.NB1) without unlocking bootloader.

Only with service point authorization as far as I know. OST (and NOST by extension) usually show you a login prompt when you launch them. Service Points login to a server that generates a temporary unlock key, which allows OST to reflash the partitions. With the proper authorization, even NOST could flash .qlz files (as long as the images inside are official and signed) with a locked bootloader.
Since we don't have service point permission we have to patch the tool to ignore it (both NOST and the hacked OST). It will still try to request the temporary key, fail, and pass an empty value to the bootloader. To get the bootloader to accept the following flashing commands, you have to unlock it.
