ROM

Is it necessary to have boot loader unlocked in order to install any custom rom and kernel via cwm?
What could happen if boot loader is locked and ROM is installed?

How to update bootloader?

Hi guys, I'm currently running Omega ROM atm. However up until this point I have only been flashing custom roms/kernels. What is the best way for me to update my bootloader?
Thanks!

By flashing the latest stock rom. But why would you even want to update the bootloader? My advice would be to NOT update your bootloader.

recovery

I know this has probably been asked before but Is the bootloader locked down on the lg g2 or can I unlock it and run a custom recovery. I recently bought a Galaxy s4 and cannot unlock this phone.
Well you don't really need an unlocked bootloader to flash custom recovery and custom Roms. Root with ioroot (makes the efs backup as well), use freegee for custom recovery and flash away!

Question on returning to stock

Hello wonderful XDA Peoples. I am planning on returning my Nexus 4 in the near future as part of T-Mobile Jump. I'm currently on a stock ROM; but unlocked with CWM recovery installed.
To return to stock, would I need to fastboot the entire stalk image (via flash all.bat) or would I just need to flash the stock recovery image, then relock the boot loader? Thanks guys! Keep up the absolutely spectacular work.

You could just flash the recovery.img and then re-lock it

on the nexus 4 rom,kernel .... index there is a stock recovery flasher, if you dont wanna use the pc
if you have root you can lock bootloader via an app
or else just via pc.

So, just flash the stock recovery image and then lock it? In that order? Thanks for the reply
