Hey guys
I have a Moto X XT1052- The Indian Version.
I rooted my phone a few weeks back and I've decided that I don't want root access anymore.
I have unrooted my phone from the SuperSU app by clicking the clean up button.
Now I can't find anything as to how to relock the bootloader. I don't really need the warranty to be active again but if there is a way to do that it would be appreciated.
Also I need help to remove the bootloader unlocked warning message to be removed as well.
Please be clear in your explanations as I'm new to all this.
I have attached details about my phone to this post.
Thanks in advance
If you are already unrooted than there is no need to go further. The bootloader can be relocked with fastboot like you unlocked the bootloader but its getting back to the state relocked and not locked. That means your warranty's is still voided and the warning message keeps there. To remove the warning there was a tutorial here in the forum. Basically it's just changing the bootlogo.

It is possible to unroot from the SuperSU app isn't it? That's what I did.
But I want to relock the bootloader.
Does it erase data on the phone?
Will it lead to bricking or any other problems?
And could you explain the procedure in detail please?
And could you give me a link to the guide you mentioned?
Thanks

Relocking the bootloader will erase your data. There are serveral threads on XDA about it... here is one -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/noob-guide-unroot-relock-bootloader-vzw-t2571786 while it says VZW (Verizon Wireless) in the subject, the same steps and info apply to all 2013 Moto X's.
No it will not lead to bricking, as long as you are re-flashing the EXACT same rom that is on your phone, and your battery is 100% charged before starting. In other words,as always, if the battery goes dead during the process, there is a potential to brick, and DOWNGRADING your ROM is not good.
As for changing the logo.bin to remove the unlock warning... see -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/moto-x-boot-logos-t2417961/post53098892 or see the LOGO.BIN info at -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-Bootlogo.htm
As @bronko15344 has already said, your bootloader status will change to "Relocked."
There are 3 states to the 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 command)
If the status is Unlocked or Relocked (code 3 or 2), you'll get the unlocked bootloader warning at boot up. While you can replace the Logo.bin to hide or remove the message, any subsequent flash or ota that replaces logo.bin will cause the warning to return.
We do not have a way to toggle back to LOCKED Status Code: 0 as it came out of the box.
In other words, even relocking doesn't take you back to 100% completely stock.
Keep in mind, I have NOT tried flashing a custom logo.bin to remove the unlocked warning on a phone set as "Locked Status Code 2" (aka relocked). I don't know if you need to be Unlocked Status Code 3 to flash it.

If you used the "Full Unroot" option in the app it should revert all changes which are made during the root process. To be sure that your system partition is completely stock you can flash it with fast boot (this won't delete your installed apps and data)
To do this look into this guide
guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock
Short version:
1.
Download and extract the sbf flies matching your phone and carrier from here:
http://www.filefactory.com/folder/dd05c058d3ff8dbe/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=100&page=1
To decide which file you need to download:
info-tip-web-sites-official-leaked-roms
2. (this step is necessary to remove your warning message)
ghost-original-bootanimations-unlocked
download the standard boot animation and extract the logo.bin and overwrite the logo.bin from the sfb files.
3.
now flash the system partition, kernel, recovery and the new logo (without the warning) with the following commands: (Note: For flashing system.img you MUST use mfastboot instead of fastboot. It's to big for the normal fast boot. So no typo here)
Code:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img
Don't execute the following command as this will delete all your data/installed apps etc.
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
That should be sufficient to revert everything what was changed during the root process. Check if everything looks like it was was on stock rom (including the recovery and the bootlogo)
Now you can relock your boot loader using one of the these commands (I'm not sure which one it was but it should be the first one. If that is giving you a error than try the second one)
Code:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem relock
But actually I would not relock your boot loader since you gain nothing and if you want to unlock it again all your data will be erased during the unlock process. and since you are not rooted you can't backup everything before...
Edit: Like @KidJoe said. If you accepting an OTA than the warning comes back. so if you relock your bootloader you can't hide that message without unlocking (and loosing all your data) again. Just stay on the unlocked bootloader

On the 2013 X, if you just do Fastboot OEM LOCK, it will prompt you with "ready to flash signed images."
The info in the thread I posted a link to are accurate. You must fastboot oem lock begin, flash full stock rom (using mfastboot), erase cache and user data, then fastboot oem lock.

Oh wasn't aware that you directly have to flash a firmware to relock the bootloader. Thank you
hey how u do u unlock ur moto x t1052 .
I was flashing system partition via dd .. Yeah stupid I know.. Some how boot loader locked itself previously.. My system is incomplete.. Won't boot.. Stock recovery and locked boot loader.. If I try to unlock boot loader via fastboot I get error about Dev options which I can not get to... Please help!
Will rsd lite still flash? Why did my boot loader lock itself ? Something new? New boot loader or new android do this?!

Sounds like RMA to me.
i dont get how bootloaders magically lock themselves, unless a script was run that issued the relock command..
one of the ota updates locked boot loader I believe, as I always leave my bootloaders unlocked for rescue, always testing different rooms, etc.. as well as it locking my bootloader it also required you to boot phone and go to developer settings and enable oem unlock there before you can fastboot oem unlock...
or maybe some other chaos locked my bootloader, idk..
fortunately I was under warranty, and phone was wiped good enough for them to not see phone was rooted or just didn't care and Motorola sent me a new phone...
I can only boot into eRecovery and fastboot.
I tried to unlock bl but failed because of frp lock on.
Recovery from eRecovery failed and I don't know why.
Three keys dload also failed.
Can anyone tell me what should I do?
I rebrand my VTR-AL00 to VTR-L29, then I flash twrp and root my phone .After one day, I want to flash kang's rom ,but found frp lock on.So I fastboot relock my phone,and it don't boot anymore:crying::crying::crying:
Hello mens,
i need a little help with locking bootloader on my Moto G6 (and flash stock rom). I try some treble rom and after that i want to go on stock, so i want to follow this tutorial https://animetrick.com/flash-stock-rom-moto-g6-plus-locked-bootloader-2018/ but without succes. My problem is that i cant swich off "enable oem unlock" from developer setting (it is grey and untouchable) and cant lock bootloader before flashing stock rom. Anybody know some solution ?
I don't think you can lock the bootloader before flashing stock. With a locked bootloader you can't modify system partition. Forget about the switch. Just install stock rom and then relock your bootloader using the guide. When you follow the guide, which doesn't mention the switch, you will reflash stock via fastboot commands, and relock the bootloader via fastboot. Pretty sure the switch will rest itself.

So, i decide use mobile with root and Magis, so I flash Rom, patched boot image and use phone in this status. Now I look into settings and OEM unlocking button is available. WTF ?
Just saying if your attempting to relock the bootloader to do a warranty replacement you cant. The bootloader can be unlocked and Moto even tells you how to. But once you unlock the bootloader once the warranty is void weather you relock it or not. In fact even requesting the unlock key can void the warranty.
To block the bootloader you need to re-authorize unlocking it in the developer options with the OEM unlock button. If the OEM unlock button is gray and unavailable you need to install root and then the button will unlock. Sam had such a situation and write what I did to make everything went without error.
Of course, USB and ADB drivers must be installed.
- Install ROOT, start the device
- Go to the developer options on your phone
- Enable authorization to unlock with the OEM unlock button
- Enable USB debugging
- Unpack the system files to a folder with ADB
- Unpack the file "FLASH_OEM_LOCK.zip" to the same folder (download below)
- Start the phone in bootloader mode and connect to the computer
- Click on the file "FLASH_OEM_LOCK.bat"
- After the procedure the phone will boot, the bootloader will be blocked, and in the developer's options the "OEM unlock" button will be available
Note: The procedure erases all data, the phone will start up as "New" with a clean system.
I did it for my own needs but maybe it will help someone.
Tested on my Moto G6 (XT1925-5)
I try to relock my Moto G6plus xt1926-3 also with stockrom flashed (after trying lineageos) but have some problems.
I cant flash something after the two "fastboot flash oem lock". It gives "remote failure" (bootloader flash permisson...) error.
After relock with oem lock, a message "incompatible operating system" is displayed before boot.
But I can unlock it again without problems. (and install magisk for example or boot twrp).
I can switch the oem unlock in dev settings to on too (in unlocked boot), but the script gave me same error.
I want only to revert to stockrom (-89 or older) and locked bootloader.
What am I doing wrong?
I could flash with locked bootloader (magisk, enable option in dev and proper fastboot version)
But I get the message "your device has loaded a different operation system"... I have flashed complete stock
*weird*
EDIT: unlocked, flashed bootloader again and relocked, but message keeps.
Have the same issue. I tried to relock my Moto G6plus xt1926-3 Android Pie also with stockrom flashed (after Ressurrection) but had some problems.
I couldnt flash anything after the two "fastboot flash oem lock". It gives "remote failure" (bootloader flash permisson...) error.
After relock with oem lock, a message "incompatible operating system" is displayed in boot.
