Hi all,
My latest Nokia 9 Pureview got from eBay is unbock bootloader ready, so it cant get OTA update. So have any method to get it to re-lock for got OTA update?
Thanks for help and support
Wait... Is that possible to unlock Nokia 9 bootloader? I think that no way to unlock it in the first place.
Are you sure it's bootloader unlocked? Usually when eBay sellers say the device is unlocked, they mean it's not locked down to a specific carrier and can be used with any. Not sure about Nokia's policy on manually updating the device, but no tools exist that I know of for that.
I tried to unlock bootloader on Nokia 6.1 2018 and it works. Google it how to locked bootloader . You will get the procedure
Type this command in adb and fastboot
fastboot flashing lock

Hi,
Some time ago I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my device. Didn't know it was possible to root without unlocking the bootloader (yes, i'm quite new to rooting etc.). Now my phone has a defective headphone-jack and I need to send it on repair. Anyone know how to re-lock the bootloader so I still have the warranty?
Currently running sLIM 4.8 by Wajk.
Use flashtool
Thanks, but it says on Sony's website that the phone stays unlocked even after using flash tool?
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Never done it in Sony phone but most of HTC, Nexus and few other brands I'm locking just with this command.
Hi all,
I've purchased a used P20 Pro from a friend which has an unlocked bootloader and has been previously rooted. I normally keep my phones stock so I want to lock relock the bootloader (I have the code) but despite trying to follow various guides I have been unsuccessful.
Would anyone be able to guide me through the process of relocking the bootloader please?
The main reason I like to keep stock is manufacture updates etc and I don't have the knowledge to maintain a rooted phone.

I don't believe that an unlocked bootloader will prevent you from getting updates. As far as I know the only difference is the warning you get when you boot that "you can't trust the phone."
IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE IT'S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY
Don't know if there is another way but of you have fastboot and adb you can do it:
1. Make sure developer options are enabled
2. Connect your phone to the computer using USB cable.
3. Open a command window and type 'adb boot bootloader'
4. Once the device has booted into the bootloader mode type 'fastboot oem lock'
This WILL ERASE all your user data and you will have to configure everything from scratch. You will need the unlock code if you ever want to unlock it again so make sure you don't loose it.
The official bootloader unlock method has been out for a while. Its almost 2 years since the phone has been released. I was hoping by now maybe some developer would have picked this phone up and put it to use. Is there a reason why nobody has bothered to start development on this phone and build a custom ROM? I think this phone has great potential given its specs and price. It would be nice to so further customizations beyond those allowed by rooting the phone.
I could do it too if I had any amount of knowledge about Android development, but sadly im a noobie.
What are your thoights?
It's not possible I guess. And Nokia has locked down. Unlocking bootloader. I have Nokia official app and it says Device not support.

No, Nokia hasnt locked it down. The bootloader unlock method only works up to the November Oreo security update. Just downgrade to Oreo November security update then unlock the bootloader, and then upgrade back to Pie.
See this thread for instructions https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-8/development/unofficial-official-nokia-8-bootloader-t3898418
Thanks bro. I have downgraded to Oreo. I got key. Now I can't unlock bootloader just bcos of fastboot driver problem in my pc. Shall I update to pie ? And unlock bootloader in pie.,.

I would suggest using another pc and unlock the bootloader.
I read somewhere that you can not unlock the Bootloader on any Huawei devices if you have the January 2019 Security Patch Update. Also you can not rollback or flash previous updates. Is this true? I did get my unlocking code before they closed the website. But I did unlock my Bootloader at that moment. So is it still possible to unlock my device?
Thanks.

I tried downgrading my Huawei p8 lite 2017 to Android 7 so I would be able to partition my SD Card as mixed Storage, but the System Updater stops at 5% and the Update fails.
Thats why I assume, that you can not downgrade, but I haven’t had the chance to use HiSuite (maybe this would have done the trick).
Unfortunally I can’t really help you in the bootloader unlocking part, because I don’t have a bootloader unlock code and my old code fails(had to relock my bootloader after bootloop in August 2018).
But I think you should try unlocking if you haven’t already and you have no problem with data loss.
If your phone is boot looping try:
-shutting phone off
-[Dangerous]put phone in freezer for 2-3 minutes (I don’t know why, but this seems to help my phone)
-turning phone back on
still in bootloop: You have to relock the bootloader
---Why My Phone Got Stuck In Boot Loop---
I always had that theorie, that my phone got stuck in bootloop, because I didn’t reboot after unlocking and instantly flashed twrp.
I think there was an error while installing twrp, wich I didn’t notice.
Can someone share the unlock code for Huawei PRA-LA1?
every phone has another code,why you need it?
How to unlock FRP on Honor 9 Lite? Software version is the latest 9.1.0.158, where many tricks like Hangouts no longer work. Apparently the only trick that works is unlock with test point? With what software and how does the unlocking perform?
whilst I have been trying to unlock the bootloader, I accidently unlocked frp (now red "unlocked"). I don't remember how I did it; i unlocked OEM and then randomly tried all possible testpoints; no software used. Installed all the drivers.
