Can you relock the bootloader?

Title. Alternatively, can you still receive OTAs with an unlocked bootloader if the firmware is stock?
Currently the issue is that the firmware files you can find online throw a bad key error on the boot and recovery images, so it's not possible to lock the bootloader that way. Motorola also doesn't provide proper OTA packages to download (I asked the support) and an emergency recovery tool like Samsung Kies doesn't seem to exist for Moto.
What are my options here? I want to give the device to a relative and need everything to work.

I did it with this code on fastboot folder (Minimal ADB & Fastboot Portable 1.4.3) with the last firmware RETAIL PPSS29.55-37-4 and then use RSD Lite to re-flash the firmware, it worked for me. Do it under your own risk.
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem lock
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash oem_b oem_other.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot oem lock
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot flash logo logo.bin

Thank you, that worked perfectly!

@HeavyHDx I highly recommend to re-flash the firmware on RSD Lite (if you haven't did it) because it could be some errors with the NON-HLOS.bin, like no sound when calling, at least that happened with me.

How could it worked perfectly since some commands are non-sense??
The Moto g6 is a A-only device... So all commands for XXX_other.img or "_b.img" won't be executed.
The second thing is that this device has a "adspso.bin" file for partition "dsp". But the command here will flash a "dspso.bin" file.
What about /recovery???

Follow the instruction on the following page:
"You can try to use the instructions given on this page https://forum.xda-developers.com/red...t3940057/page2. Extract all img and bin files from the Global ROM and place them into the folder where the "cmd-here.exe" is. Also you need "system.img" you can download that here https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...pQ1KK1LjysSfYm, but dont download the other files they might be the Chinese files.
After you extracted the img and bin files and placed them into the folder where the cmd is placed connect your phone to the computer, open the cmd exe and run the commands
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash parameter parameter.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot oem nubia_lock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot reboot
After all that you should be able to go into recovery mode through fastboot mode if not then try and flash dtbo.img and vbmeta.img in the line of commands so for example "fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img" and "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" looking something like this...
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash parameter parameter.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot
This was the line of commands I used when my recovery mode was corrupt and somehow worked
I hope this helps and let me know if it worked or if the issue is still there. Also the forum has several posts on this matter and they might have the answer you are looking for as it helped me with this issue. Good Luck!"

Followed a guide as stuck in boot loop. Now device is corrupt, help please.

Hi there, my device was having boot loop problems, I followed this guide using files uploaded by a user, then I was able to update using otg cable but it got stuck at 25%, after a reboot I get the message that my device is corrupt and cannot be trusted.
This is the guide i followed :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/red-magic-3/help/stuck-fastboot-mode-t3937527
Now I have tried to flash at fastboot the following images:
En_wpj0O_v115
En_wpj0O_v207
En_wpj0O_v209
En_wpj0O_v210
Chinese 2.31
I used the following commands each time:
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
Fastboot erase boot
Fastboot erase recovery
Fastboot erase system
Fastboot erase userdata
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot erase data
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase modem
fastboot erase dsp
fastboot erase vbmeta
fastboot erase dtbo
fastboot flash parameter parameter.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot oem nubia_lock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot reboot
Each time I've tried I just end up with the device is corrupt message, I have read that the command 'Fastboot flashing unlock' can solve the problem but when I enter it I get an error message that it's not allowed.
I would really appreciate some help getting this back up and running, maybe I'm doing something wrong or not using the correct images but I'm now at a loss.
Also my battery is now getting low which is worrying me.
Many thanks,
John.
Edit also followed this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/red-magic-3/how-to/stuck-fastboot-mode-check-ub-debugging-t3951498
I used the files from global 2.31 and system.img uploaded by a user in that thread.
Then the following commands:
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash parameter parameter.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot flash -S 500M system system.img **I have to do it this way else it fails**
fastboot reboot
Unfortunately I still get the device is corrupt and cannot be trusted message. I am really stuck now
One thing I have noticed is when I flash system.img although it completes with all ok messages I cannot send any fastboot commands after doing this although fastboot devices shows the phone.
Should also mention that I cannot enter recovery from fastboot, just get the corrupt message.

Success.
I had to do:
fastboot flash -S 100M system system.img
Sending in larger chunks must have corrupted the image, I'm now back at the recovery and hopefully can go from here.
Update
Flashed latest EU rom over otg after clearing data and cache, all working.
What a relief!

Red magic 3 software crupt
My friend I'm facing same problem
I can't go to the recovery to restore flash file from usb OTG
Also fastboot is not allowed to unlock flash
How can i get back ok my device?

i may have just bricked my phone, can someone help me?

when i try to repair it using the moto repair tool, it says failed, when i try to boot into android, it says to enter a password, ive never had a password, i dont know what to do, or even where to start to try to fix it. the bootloader is locked, and i dont know how to boot into the os... it says your phone has loaded a different operating system, then the id says bad key, can someone help?

Bad key shows up when your boot.img flashed is modified and the system is locked.
By enter password you mean the drawing dots or a numeric code?
Try using this software: https://support.lenovo.com/br/pt/downloads/ds101291-rescue-and-smart-assistant-lmsa
If it shows failed on it too then you need to reflash via cmd with exact same version ( locked bootloader wont let you flash a different version than exact one). Use fastboot getvar all and find the line with the version stating. then download and flash it.

by password, it says "To Start Android, Enter your device password"
also how would i go about flashing the exact version? ive never flashed something before

Look for ro.build.fingerprint after typing command: "fastboot getvar all"
Then download ROM via lolinet https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/ali/
and flash via typing these commands:

My moto G6 is bricked after relocking the bootloader

Hi everyone!
I have a big issue
I first flashed the stock firmware via motorola rescue tool then I relocked the bootloader
After that I got this error
Your device has loaded a different operating system
Then it bootloops

Most likelly you have flashed the stock from a different variant, check this link
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai

you can still flash stock with bootloader locked, as long as you can enter fastboot mode
1. Find a Stock ROM on lolinet that works properly for you, with imei working, download and extract.
2. Flash the rom via fastboot on the computer using the code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot bluetooth flash BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
