Can I reflash back the stock rom even if the bootloader is locked?
I ask because I know it's possible with my Samsung Galaxy S6. Not sure about Xiaomi phones.
You have to unlock bootloader first to flash stock rom or any custom rom.

Hello
Just upgraded to a Note II and have sold my Note 1. The new owner wants stock rom, root and unlocked bootloader. Is there any guide for reverting? I could probably just flash a stock rom trough CWM?
I'm just a little concerned about the earlier problems with breaking the storage part on the phone.
you can use odin to flash a stock rom.

Can anyone here give me simple starter instructions to reflash my vodafone htc one with international or EU stock rom
I dont want a custom rom just a non vodafone official rom from HTC,( EU or World)
It is SIM unlocked and Bootloader locked.
Can this be done without rooting?
Just switched from Samsung where it was easy to switch to a different rom by flashing without rooting voa odin...is there a similar way with HTC?
nope. you have to unlock bootloader,root, and install custom recovery
Hi Guys
Just curious
If I were to flash another regions stock ROM (EG not Australia) and installed a custom ROM over that, would that mess up the baseband?
Kinda need help because I need to reflash this ace and its stuck in a boot loop (Friend tried to flash CR without root rights)
Thanks:laugh::laugh::
Dear all,
I have rooted my device which is running 4.3 (c5502) (build number: . 101) with towelroot. Now i need to install any custom ROM. I came to know that it requires to install recovery first before flash any ROM. I stuck there..Can you please guide me. I didn't unlock my bootloader yet but I had my TA backup with me.Thanks in advance guys.
whatever u need to know is already there. just search for it. if u expect to be spoonfed then you really shouldn't mess with your phone
The thing is, do we really need to unlock boot loader to flash custom roms, or can it be closed just with root and recovery?
No one tryed it till now I think.

Yes for flashing custom Roms the bootloader must be unlocked and a recovery must be installed however if you want to flash a stock based Rom unlocked boot loader is not needed. Just Root and Recovery needed for flashing the stock based Roms. Correct me if i am wrong.
So, I got a Galaxy s5 AT&t (G900A), and i want it deodexed, but since theres no custom recovery for it i wanted to flash a rom like twi5ted lolipop, would this be possible with a locked bootloader still?
Edit: By the way im on 5.0 lollipop
No. If you can't root you can't flash.
