Hello,
in order to get a repair in terms of the warranty i need to re-lock my bootloader somehow.
My x force has the original software but when i try the fastboot lock command it tells me that i need to flash original firmware first.
How i can get the original firmware onto my phone?

Hello,
I want to relock the bootloader and go back to stock.
I tried flashing stock firmware using fastboot.
fastboot oem lock begin
flashed stock firmware
fastboot oem lock
But Bootloader is still unlocked.
I got message as first flash full stock system. Something like that. Don't remember as I tried this a week ago.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Edit : I also tried the Windows tool provided by one of the members but it failed too.
I used the same to unlock in the first place.
I think it depends on what you want to achive. While you might be able to re-lock the bootloader (which means it can't be flashed without being unlocked again), you will never ever get rid of the unlock message again. This - to my understanding - is an efuse which is permanently set. If you want to remove the unlocked bootloader boot message, I'd stay unlocked and would just flash a different boot logo (logo.bin) where the unlocked gfx are replaced with the standard gfx thus showing the standard boot logo.
I would like to relock the bootloader altogether.
I don't think you can. You can lock it but you can't remove the warning that it has been tampered with.
I don't care about the warning.
I just want to re-lock it.
Flashing the Official firmware for my Country - India did the job.
Last time I tried with firmware for ASIA.
I don't see any reason for that to fail but you never know.
Thanks for replying.
hey can you give me the link for that rom im also using the indian version but unable to lock the bootloader
several questions in no particular order:
Does the "OEM Unlocking" toggle do anything on the XT1572?
If I issue the fastboot OEM LOCK command after having sucessfully unlocked the device before, do I need to go through the full data wipe+send oem data+flash unlock code process again?
Lastly, I was able to flash the MM firmware for my Single SIM AISA model XT1572 despite having the bootloader locked (I think).
Is that normal that I can flash the official moto firmware using just fastboot without having to tweak with anything else?
I presume that since the digital signatures are correct the bootloader has no issue accepting the MM files.
Not quite the end of the world if I have to wipe everything and start over (it's only been a day) but I regret not knowing earlier. Nor did I expect to get this far with a relocked boot loader. Was trying to add SuperSU and found that while I can overwrite flash the stock recovery I cannot flash TWRP.

As far as I am concerned relocking the bootloader wont wipe your data and yes about the question regarding the stock firmware
PS: Dont relock your bootloader once you unlock it the warranty doesnt come back even if you lock it again
I have moto g4 plus. recently i rooted it and everything worked fine
but when i applied the nougat ota upgrade
i m unable to downgrade it to mm stock ROM or stock ROM
neither, able to lock bootloader even cant flash with recovery
every time i flash it it shows "preflash validation failed " and "piv sign not valid " for the boot and recovery image
my stock ROM is not corrupt
one more thing it also display's "security version downgrade"
pls guys help me
1. enable developer option
2. enable oem unlock
3. get unlock code from motorola website
4. unlock via fastboot
Sorry, misread. I think you want to unlock BL.
Did you read XDA rules...? Did you search...?
There is already a thread for ReLock issue..
As you will read,
You can't downgrade bootloader if once updated...
Don't Mess with bootloader unless want a brick....
According to my views, there are no benefits for ReLocking unless want to sell phone and make buyer fool... LoL...
I see plenty of guides on how to unlock the bootloader which as I understand voids the warranty. Is there any way to relock the bootloader if I need to? Maybe someone could link me to a guide?
I've had bad experiences with dodgy solder in 3 LG G4 handsets so I sort of see the value in a manufacturer's warranty these days.
In fastboot
"Fastboot oem relock YourCode"
Fastboot relock still show that the phone was unlocked before but to revert to original state you have to flash stock firmware using this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-rebrand-chinese-al00-mate9-to-t3554656/page57
This will lock the bootloader without any trace
Many many thanks.

Is the adb relock bootloader "Code" command connected with a factory reset? Do I keep my data?
next ... After unlocking the bootloader of my g4 plus bike, I made the installation of the rom and an update arrived via ota ... I placed to make the installation and after made the cell phone hung up and did not call any more ... then I did the blankflash and the mobile came back in fastboot mode with the boot blocked again, now I can not install any rom and nor unblock the boot by not having the option oem unlock checked ... my question is the following have some way to enable the option unlock boot without starting the system, by adb or something, or do the installation of some rom with the boot blocked? Thank you very much in advance
Which ROM did you flash onto your device?
As far as I understand, you cannot enable the OEM unlocking option without booting to system, and as your bootloader is set to OEM_locked by the blankflash, you need to flash the stock ROM firmware to get your system working.
I'd suggest looking into flashing the latest stock ROM firmware, follow this unbricking guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-hardbrick-solved-guide-t3657761
If that doesn't work, then you may have to wait for a newer firmware or submit your device for an expensive service repair.
For future reference, if you did flash an older stock ROM firmware, please delete that and only flash stock ROM firmware as new or newer than your bootloader. If you do want to flash older stock ROM firmware, do not use OTA updates please. Old OTA updates corrupt your bootloader and thus lead to a hard brick.
