Hi!
I recently relocked my bootloader, and I still get the bootloader unlocked warning. Is there any way I could stay locked and still remove the warning by flashing some logo.bin file?
Also, my software status in fastboot menu says "modified". I'm currently on latest stock version of Android on my XT 1092 as well as bootloader gave me no mismatch warning while flashing the firmware. Is there any way it could be changed back to official? Because it is indeed, official.
You can remove the warning. This thread will take care of you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/warning-message-unlocked-bootloader-t2871478
As for the software status, I don't believe there is a way to have it not show as modified.

I relocked the bootloader but when i did , I got an error saying 'too many strings' or something
However, I restarted phone in bootloader and saw the status code (It was 2-bootloader status:Locked)
However i gave a 'oem lock' command again.
I get status 2-bootloader status:Locked, after relocking. (well thats ok) but i still see the bootloader unlocked warning.
I could Still flash the warning remover 'logo.bin' file
Now Im confused about whats happening! If my bootloader was locked then how could I get that warning? Rather , How could I ever flash a logo.bin file on my device?

It's no problem to unlock the device again. Just use the same code you received via email.
The bootloader-warning stays because even a relock does not restore warranty.
There's absolutely no reason to relock the device. As long as you are fully unrooted you will be able to install OTA even with unlocked bootloader.

You have to be unlocked for this. And just keep it unlocked. As I said, there's no point in relocking.

Interesting. Thanks for the input. learned somthing new..[emoji4]
I restored to stock over the weekend and everything seemed good. I don't want to mess with custom ROMs anymore for the moment so I wanted to relock the bootloader.
I went into the bootloader and ran a fastboot oem lock begin then flash all of the factory image parts again. I then ran fastboot oem lock and got a "locked!" message on my device. When I rebooted into the bootloader again I saw that my device was now locked, but still showed "Software status: Modified". Is that normal after flashing a factory image? I would have expected that it would have reverted to "official" or whatever the default is.
The other part of the issue is that I'm not sure if my bootloader actually re-locked. When I reboot I still see the "Warning bootloader unlocked" message. Also, I was still able to flash the factory image again even though the status showed "locked." Are you supposed to be able to flash the factory images with a locked bootloader? And is the warning message supposed to show after a re-lock?
Locking the bootloader just means you can only flash firmware for your model and carrier, if you try to flash the firmware of a different model or carrier it won't let you because it is relocked.
And just so you are aware, your status is not "locked" it is "relocked". There is no way to have the "locked" status again.
As far as it saying modified, did you flash the firmware for your model and your carrier? Or a different one? It had to be the original firmware that came on the phone or it will say modified.

Good to know you should be able to flash stock firmware with a locked bootloader.
Well the bootloader shows "Locked" not "Relocked." I'm simply telling you what it displays. Is it normal to still have the "unlocked bootloader" warning on boot?
It's a Pure edition and I did flash the Pure firmware, but it still says Modified. That said, the phone came with 4.4.4 and I flashed the updated 5.1, could that be it?
Hello.
Normally after relocking the bootloader on these phones it will say relocked. While debranding my phone I had the phone bootloader unlocked and rooted, with the untrusted boot up message. Half way through the debranded procedure I had massive issues with encryption and it not letting me past which took an age to sort out.
Once I passed that I managed to finish debranding the phone, but after flashing the the new firmware to the phone I stopped seeing the unlocked bootloader message, when I hadnt relocked the bootloader. When I checked, the bootloader was locked and frp was unlocked.
Everything is working fine with the phone, receiving updates, all themes working, everything working great.
I just don't fully understand how it's relocked itself, but Instead of it showing relocked it shows the original locked, but frp is now unlocked while the phone is locked, both originally said locked.
Anyone have any ideas. ????
Same for me
Look at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9-plus/how-to/guide-how-to-lock-unlocked-relocked-t3465486
Did you find out why frp doesn't go back to locked Instead of staying unlocked. I only ask because my NatWest app says i'm rooted or security settings have changed and won't let me log in via fingerprint. I wonder if it's because of this. ????
Edit. If you remove USB debugging and OEM unlock it relocks the frp lock.
Good thank you for sharing it
Hello guys,
So yesterday I got this phone. i am loving it. I have heard that gcam makes camera experience even better. I am tempting to install it.
But I have some questions. Can I relock bootloader and revert back to stock rom and recieve OTAs? Or once its unlocked It can never be stock again?
Also if I manage it relock bootloader. Will it be then covered by warranty?
Hi everyone,
Today I have a big problem
I install jasmine__V10.0.8.0.PDIMIXM and after I set "fastboot oem lock" but Now my MI A2 Can't enter in OS.
I have this message on screen
"Your device has loaded a different operation system"
and another page says
"Your device software can'tbe checked for corruption. Plese lock the bootlader.
But when I check in fastboot I have bootloader locked.
Any suggestion to unlock ? I can't enter in OS.
Thanks
i have bough a x4 from ebay without warranty or anyting, the problem that i have. my phone says at the begining your device has loaded another operating system and then just a line of code says verity mode is set to disabled.
but after that the device starts normally, i have tried to lock the device again, but it doesn't work , maybe you have a solution for this problem :the model is XT1900-1 Type:M2997
the bootloader has been unlocked and to be honest relocking has no real benefits. leave it like it is, flash the latest stock image or a custom rom and ignore the bootscreen message.

first, thank you for your response.
do you think, is that a motorola specific issue with corrupt bootloader ?
i guess the firmware of my device is a nougat, will it really help to get rid of a such blemish if i flash it??

The message is normal for an unlocked bootloader - it is not corrupt. You cannot get rid of the message when the bootloader has been unlocked, even if it is relocked. Well, you can replace the boot image, but the ”verity" message will remain.
