hi all my first post im wanting to relock 5x bootloader has i unlocked the boot loader unofficial way as my fingerprint scanner is not working so prob needs to go back also it wont update
i tried this via adb fastboot oem lock and it said FAILED ( remote invalid command) plus on the phone in fastbbot red its got PHONE unlocked and FRP UNLOCK
hope someone can help would be appriciated and im running b130 firmware
I dont think you can relock it its unlockable for a reason. Offtopic// how is warranty in europe when unlocked?
hmm,
well ive relocked bootloader just will not update and fingerprint not working not even in menu
Maybe you should walk us through what exactly you did up until the point where your FP scanner stopped working. It seems strange that it stopped working as a result to unlocking the bootloader (they are not related).
this is what i did
right i tried installing cm13 installed twrp and then the rom did not work kept crashing
so i reinstalled stock recovery via adb
then installed b130 rom for l21 device
ive even tried the dload update app route to reinstall stock rom and when i connect it to my charger and do the key combo i keeep getting software installed failed and it goes to quick to get the error message
i cannot update and im stuck on b130
when i do goto uopdate via handset it says your system was altered and full update is needed and then fails

Thats not the error. You cant update the phone after you rooted it/ after the bootloader is unlocked.
Did you clean flash it or dirty?

What recovery do you use? It might be the recovery that flashes root back to the phone

and won't update tried the load update.app procedure just fails more or less straight away
the fp aint working I've had enough lol and i can't even take it back to service centre as i think they would say boot loader as been unlocked no warranty

@Zulu:
Is your issue that the fingerprint setup menu item does not even show up in the settings menue even when you re-flash stock rom and EMUI 3.1?
I have that exact issue. I have been trying every possible way to go back to stock, am at EMUI 3.1 now with original Recovery. But still the fingerprint menu item still does not show up in the setup menue screen.
Now I am hoping that EMUI 4 will solve that issue.
Did you find a solution by chance?

hi yes same issue i couldn't get phone to update to b140 or anything so I've just reflashed cm13 this time which went without any issues this time round. when i went back to stock the fingerprint was not even in menu same as you
i will not buy a cheap budget phone anymore this is way to much aggro lol and I've flashed loads of phones before and never had these issues on this scale I'm going to be buying another phone in a couple of months
the only reason i wanted to flash in first place as i thought stock was laggy
let me know if you get your issues sorted and then give me a step by step guide please when you have done this
also i did unlock my boot loader via dc client software as huawei site for unlocking boot loader never worked for me
:silly:
u can relock the bootloader. i did it. just go to the bootloader with fastboot oem relock ****** command. **** is your 16 digit unlock code. but 1st flash the stock recovery then lock the bootloader.

Hello zulu1875, if you are interested you can now contact our support team at 1-844-524-6667 for more information as we now offer an RMA process to re-flash the device back to factory settings. Please keep in mind that re-flashing the device will wipe the memory of the device clean.

Hi thanks for message I'm based in uk does honour uk offer this service as I desp need to back to stock
So I bought this moto X Play a few weeks ago and it was fine. Then I rooted it to gain access to some shady things but didn't change much in the phone, nor did I install many ROMs or however you call it. It was fine till I learned that Niantic was blocking access to pokemon go to rooted phones.
So I tried unrooting it, to root it again with the Magisk root or something. I couldn't unroot with SuperSU, even though when I rooted it, that was the only thing I used. So I followed instructions, I backed up my data, I factory reset using TWRP, then it was time to flash a factory image, so I downloaded the ADB fastboot and the stock rom, I downloaded the firmware:
"XT1563_LUX_RETLA_DS_6.0.1_MPD24.107-52.xml" (I searched through the options and found my area, Latin America, made sure it was 6.0.1 just like I used, and made sure it had the correct build number).
So I followed the instructions, did everything correctly, and when I entered the code fastboot reboot, my phone got stuck in a Warning, Bootloader Unlocked screen, followed by an "erasing" screen with the android logo moving its antennae, followed by a vibration and a restart which starts everything again. I'm heartbroken now, I don't know what to do.
PD: I think I might have downloaded the wrong firmware, (it says DS in the name, which I think is Dual Sim, and I only have 1 inside), don't know if I can keep trying.
PD2: Pls halp
PD3: Like you might have guessed, I did unlock the bootloader before rooting, but now it seems that's the problem for the unrooting.

Hi everyone, first message here, and not for the best..
Here's the story.
Yesterday evening, I tried to install Xposed Framework, but I was stuck in a boot loop (even when I tried to uninstall it), so I "dirty" flashed a Nougat build on my device. Phone was back alive, despite a bug from the mobile data.
Today, I had to restart my phone because of this issue, but now, my phone is somehow bricked. Bootloader is relocked (I dont know how the **** it happened), so I can't do anything, as the phone is stuck on a bootloop, and I don't have TWRP anymore. I tried fastboot, but nothing is working on it. Even VNS Toolkit is no use. I tried a force update with the UPDATE.APP, but I'm still in a bootloop.
So, tl;dr, phone bricked, bootloader locked, no recovery, and no code to unlock my bootloader.
Please XDA people, help me !!
You should try to get your unlock code and unlock your bootloader again, you can find the informations of the phone on the original box.
DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL XPOSED ON NOUGAT, there is still no Xposed version for nougat.
It was Xposed for MM, so after my fail, I decided to update to N.
On the box, I have IMEI1 and IMEI2, and the SN. But I don't have the "PIN" verification code (you can only get it via HMI code..) So I think I'll never be able to unlock my BL :/
I had the same issue lost my bootloader unlock code but there is another way to get bootloader unlock code: DC unlocker
Just follow instructions on there site for p9 lite
On the tool set the manufacturer to "huawei phones" not modems. I made that mistake too first
You need to buy 4 credits to unlock = 4 euros so the tool is not free
Good luck
Email huawei to get your unlock code. It's free!
Just send an email to them

Ok bro you want a lolly now? It's a sillicon lotery you were lucky thats all
I dont earn anything with this btw just helping for alternatives bcause some people cant afford waiting for huawei mail if there phone is bricked
Hi everyone, quick update.
I tried to get my BL unlock code from Huawei, but they wanted my Product ID (how nice of them..)
DC-Unlocker is no use for me, as I only could boot into fastboot.
My service provider helped me a lot, and told me to wipe data/factory reset via the Vol+/Power button method. Somehow, it kinda worked, because now the phone is booting, I have the configuration running, selecting language, region, Wifi, but after Wifi+ option, I have the "Checking Info" window, but it crash, and goes back to Wifi+ config.
So now, I'm stuck here...
UPDATE 2:
I managed to get my BL unlock code !!
But now, fastboot is not letting me unlock it (fastboot: command not allowed.) I'm desperate !! Any reasons why ?
UP3:
Phone is FRP Locked, I'm pretty sure I can't go further because of this
Fastboot wont work bcause you havent enabled usb debugging mode and you cant enable bcause you cant boot in the rom
Have you tried the 336 nougat update.app?

Hi ! Can you provide me a link for full update ? Thanks
Today I decided to unlock bl , flash twrp and root my M1.
Tried 3-4 methods , 3 PCs , manually installed drivers and wasted 4hrs but all got zero results. Everytime after clicking on "unlock.cmd" nothing happens. Just command window shows erase all devices ... something like that.
I am currently on latest build i.e. 311.
Any help is welcomed.

If you don't want to claim warranty, you can use the official unlock tool to unlock your boot loader. But you should be aware of its issues.

But I want to retain warranty.
In other posts there is procedure , for device with bootloader unlocked with unofficial method, for look and unlook officially, but is confused and in other arguments.
Is possible have this post for this argument, with clear guide , because I think is important question.
This maybe procedure:
1. miflash to official China Beta rom first. Flash without relock.
1b. Download from PC VPN app, install on phone and set connection to China. Then you are able to active usb developer options
2. re-lock bootloader with official China Beta rom. Flash and relock.
3. unlock bootloader again with official China Beta rom. Need to tie up with Mi account and insert a SIM card. For me, need to wait for 720 hours before MM3 can be unlocked. I checked chinese miui forum. This apparently is a new requirement. One full month later. Gosh...
4. miflash to official Global rom and stop there.
5. Do not re-lock bootloader with official Global rom""
I don't try this procedure......
What's the point of looking the bootloader just to get it unlocked again after whatever hours waiting!?
Do you experience problems with the device being unlocked unofficialy? Or this is just another "good advice/info" coming from MIUI forums...
Be happy somebody already took care of that and enjoy the unlocked bootloader freedom you get.

The device comes unlocked but your Mi account has not permission to unlock this specific device because you never followed the official unlock procedure.
Xiaomi with its new policy does not let you use a Chinese version of a phone with a global rom and a locked bootloader. If you flash the global rom and for some reason the bootloader gets locked, your phone will stuck on the recovery with the following message "this miui version cannot be installed on this device", at this stage you must unlock the bootloader to be able to boot again, if the bootloader was unlocked officialy with you own account, you can use the mi unlock tool to unlock again and make the phone bootable, if the bootloader was unofficialy unlocked or unlocked by other account, in this case you can't unlock with the Mi unlock tool, you can't flash another rom since the bootloader is locked, you can't follow the official unlock procedure because you are stuck in recovery, the only solution is to use the test point method with EDL authorized account
Ok, I guess sounds reasonable for majority of the users.
But me personally? I could care less...
You can backup bootloader unlocked status and restore it if locked by accident...

It requires either root or EDL or TWRP...
And no, EDL is not locked, it's not Xiaomi's feature to lock it, it's Qualcomm business... MiFlash is locked which is irrelevant... Who needs their stupid front end when you can use Qualcomm tools...

Users have been experimenting with older versions of MiFlash as well as Qualcomm's official flashing tool QFIL, but to no avail, they couldn't flash in EDL because the programs could not bypass the requirement for authentication.

that is exactly what just has happens with me few minutes ago.
I bought the MAX3 through Ali Express with "fake" global Rom, and open bootloader, however since the global ROM is officially released by Xiaomi so I was trying to flash it through XiaomiFalsh but, mistakenly, and unfortunately, I kept the tick mark on "clean all and lock" and now the phone is stuck on recovery, I called the service center of Xiaomi by they said since it is not officially announced in my country so it is not their baby and they asked me to contact the seller "who ali experess! no way!!"
guys who can help me to get out of this issue will be really appreciated, but keep in mind I'm not an expert.

There is no way to apply for unlock without a bootable phone, He must go to Developer options -> Mi Unlock status -> Add account and device but this is not possible because the phone is stuck in recovery.
The only solution right now is to use the test-point method to flash the chinese rom.

Someone I helped fastboot flash China 8.8.9 mistakenly did this and was able to boot. Is Global rom entirely different in this situation?

Oh right, now I remember. This was that very big announcement. Completely forgot. Thanks for the reminder. Yes, then test point is the only option, unfortunately.
Again, this was why I urged people to steer clear of global and stick to Eu roms. More harm than good especially related to such situations (many new flashers accidentally locking bootloaders).

Thank you so much guys for your feedback, for now I have the flowing questions:
1- the phone is stuck in recovery mode, how I shutdown the phone.
2- If I wait for Xiaomi to launch MAX3 officially in y country do you think they will be able to help me even with charged service?
3- can any of you expert guys direct me to some useful link to see how do it use the test-point method.
4- If I succeeded to unlock the bootloader through the test-point method, is it mandatory to flash the Chinese version or I can flash global Rom and keep the bootloader unlocked.
thank you in advance for your time.

1. Hold power and volume down until boots to fastboot mode, leave it and it should turn off automatically after few seconds.

4. With the test-point method you can flash the chinese rom even if the bootloader is locked, after succesfully flashing the china rom you have to apply for official unlock, after getting the unlock permission you can flash global rom by leaving the bootloader unlocked.
XiaomiTool official page is proposing another solution but you need to wait for a global dev rom to be released and it is not guaranteed to work
If you get the message "this miui can't be installed on this device" and your device is bricked you might be able to recover it using xiaomiadb by first installing global developer and then installing china developer OF SAME VERSION (for example 8.8.16->8.8.16) using "xiaomiadb sideload_miui -otarom CurrentRom [ZIP_ROM_FILE]"

hello all, if someone can help me, i have my mi max3 with locked bootloader.
now i dont have any rom on it so trying to load a rom but getting an error ERASE is not allowed in locked state
what rom can i flash on it ?
tried to unlock bootloader via the tool, it gets stuck at 50% cannot verify phone.
had the same problem, was able to recover it with the test point method and flashing chinese rom, and switching to english language.
the procedure is described here:
https://androidfilebox.com/tips/edl-test-point-mode-redmi-note-4x/
the installation process of the qualcom drivers is special.
you have to open te backcover, which is very special too, dont forget to the 2 mini screws at the usb port and the drawer on the side . search and look on youtube.
look further, where the testpoints are on the mi max3
follow strictly the procedure, load and double extract the chinese rom for the mi max 3.
It is real work, and real danger that you break something mechanical, one shoud have a calm hand and a lot of patience, but for me all went good and the phone spang to live again.
Another solution could be this, but I have no experience with it:
