Thanks a lot
Sorry about my bad English!
Standard Nexus set up is to ship with a locked bootloader, but for those that want to tinker, it's easy to unlock.
Beware that doing so will wipe your phone, so it should be the first thing you do to it
Thank you very much

Re-locking bootloader?

Hey guys,
I have TWRP set up and rooted but I hate that little open lock icon when I boot up the phone.
If I relock the bootloader will I still be able to flash mods/roms etc since I have TWRP installed?
Thanks in advance!
Without stock when you relock it will just keep booting back into the bootloader instead of android

I am on stock, just another recovery and rooted.
So it won't boot into bootloader the whole time or will it?

Well I guess I care. Not only because it's irritating but also to get warranty back.

With a custom recovery. Relocking the bootloader should cause the device to fail to boot.
It doesn't matter if you still have a stock rom.
It will fail the locked checks and put you straight into the bootloader

just revert to stock with original recovery if worried about it since you cant lock it on custom firmware
Okay thank I know enough, will just let the unlocked lock icon show.

[Q] Unlocked bootloader LG L7

Someone told me that if u unlock bootloader on L7 you can't reboot your phone. Is it true? Why's that?
Sent from my LG-P705 using xda app-developers app
That's wrong. You have to unlock the bootloader to install a custom rom on your device. And a lot of people ( and me ) unlocked the bootloader without having any issue.

maybe if you fail unlocking it, using cmd and install another stupid thing, yes, you can fck up your phone )
