How do you mean by 'the warning remains' though, can you still see the 'device has been unlocked' message even after flashing the logo.bin via fastboot (using the adb terminal)? Can you show us which logo.bin you're trying to flash and what steps you're using to flash the file?
If you've got TWRP, you may wish to try some of the TWRP flashable logo.bin

The only other way I know of removing the bootloader warning is to re-lock your bootloader. The custom logo.bin, though they don't shorten the 5-10 delay on booting, at least hide the bootloader warning (and the N/A bit too).
The v1 Android logo wouldn't even flash, the V2 logo says it's 100% completed but the full warning remains and no logo of powered by Android. I am using the minimum abd package which is working fine as I did everything else without issues via fast boot command, I'm using the commands listed on xda for it I've tried both fastboot flash logo logo.bin and mfastboot flash logo logo.bin Sudo fastboot flash logo logo.bin and flash logo logo.bin all came back as 100% complete without any errors being displayed then I did fastboot reboot.

If you're running an update ending in .67, are you using a G5 Plus with NPN25.137.67? If so, you may wish to look here for logo.bin images https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/logo-fix-g5-logo-bin-t3610456

I'm confused now as you've mentioned you've had an update pushed to your device with .67? For Moto G4 Plus, I recall the latest update is NPJS25.93-14.4 (March 2017), unless you're on a soak test.
So, just to clarify, you've:
1) Downloaded the zip of the logo.bin
2)Extracted the logo.bin from the zip file
3)Copied the logo.bin to your adb directory (ensuring that there aren't any other logo.bin files in the directory or the original/your new logo.bin has been renamed, if for example you had your stock ROM there), or made a note of the path directory to your desired logo.bin
4)Rebooted your device to the bootloader and plugged your device into your computer
5)In adb, typed 'fastboot flash logo logo.bin' (ensuring that the 'logo.bin' is pointing to the correct logo.bin)
6)Rebooted
Yes I have e followed all those steps and nothing changed. Don't even know what a soak test is or how to get it.

I was getting confused as you quoted an update version that doesn't appear to exist currently on Moto G4 athene devices (to the best of my knowledge). Out of interest, can you post a screenshot of your device info under Settings>About Phone? I'd just like to verify what build you have. You'll either get a soak test from the Motorola Feedback Network if you signed up to be a tester, usually. It'll appear as a software update (and accompanied with a questionnaire, if I recall).
It's odd these steps aren't working, I've got a XT1642 (on the retgb retail software channel) and have been able to flash these logo.bin images. Perhaps someone else can chime in with solutions.
That information hmwas removed when lineage is was installed onto the handset I own the XT1643 which is an Australian model. Definitely not a moto tester that would break my contract with Jide technologies. Both my moto G4 plus device got the update so did most the people I know here with that model. Updated about a week ago. Ending in .67 my moto G5 plus which I just got has no software updates and is ending in .14

I think you've got your devices mixed up - as far as I know:
Moto G4 Plus - updated to NPJ25.93-14.4 (March 1 2017 security update) - which would be your XT1642. XT1643 is the Indian model. Thus far, does not have an update ending in .67.
Moto G5 Plus - updated to NPN25.137-67 (March 1 2017 security update) (you've even posted getting this update on your device in the G5 Plus OTA thread! https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72784029&postcount=194) As far as I know, Moto G5 Plus devices have only received .15, .33, .35 and .67 updates.
LineageOS will still show if you're running a Moto G4 Plus or Moto G5 Plus under the Device info. Also, the build will tell you whether it's for Moto G4 ( it'll list athene as the codename) or Moto G5 Plus (listing potter as the codename).

I would like to Relock the Bootloader of My Moto G4 XT1622. I did not find any specific instructions to do this on the XT1622 just for other Moto G4 models and I was not successful. Any suggestion? Has anyone done this on XT1622. Thank you
Same question here, can't find it anywhere.
When i do fastboot oem lock it says that i need a signed boot.img
Flashed the original but still not working. Anyone?
I unlcoked Moto G5 Plus bootloader few days back, but when yesterday night i was trying to lock the bootloader by flashing the available stock roms on the internet which are NPN25.137-33 and NPN25.137-35 i tried with both but it still asks for "Signed boot and/or oem images" to lock the bootloadewr again.
If any developer/person has some solution, please tell us as many of the users are facing the same problems.

Slot Suffix not found is normal, that's because TWRP is checking for another slot like in Pixel or other A/B devices.
About your other problem you have to provide more information, which stock ROM version did you flash and from which version did you come?
Maybe you downgraded your bootloader?
Have you been on any 64bit custom ROM? If yes which one?

In addition to wolfcity's useful post, have you unlocked this device's bootloader in the past? If so, then what happens if you try to unlock with your unlock key as given to you by Motorola?
If your key no longer works, and OEM unlocking (under Settings>Developer Options) is turned on, then you may have to request help from the official Motorola forums: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/MOTOROLA-Android-Developer/Bootloader-Unlock-Problems/td-p/3222809
If you have not unlocked this device bootloader, then have you obtained the OEM unlock code and submitted that code to Motorola as per this tool? https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

Looks like you flashed a ROM meant for US devices onto your Indian device... Also, NPN25.137-35 is a really old firmware (March 2017) and Moto devices sometimes do not work well if you've flashed an older firmware to your device.
I'd recommend flashing the NPNS25.137-92-10 (April 2018 security patch) or NPNS25.137-92-14 (June 2018 security patch) firmware onto your device. I'd also recommend flashing with wiping your userdata, as I don't know what's causing this; with a data wipe, you will want to back up your data if possible. Copy your essential files to a computer/cloud storage and hopefully have your contacts backed up. You could use MyPhoneExplorer to back up your contacts, text messages and call log.

Not much to add to echo92's post, a full wipe and flashing one of the mentioned firmwares is exactly what you should do.
For the case that you have downgraded your bootloader in the past I would recommend to not take future OTA as this could hardbrick your device.

Here you'll find the firmware
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/RETAIL/
Use NPNS25.137-92-10 (April 2018 security patch) or NPNS25.137-92-14 (June 2018 security patch.
As I told you before the "slot suffix not found" message is normal and no problem.
It just tells you that your device has only one update slot and not two like Pixel or some Xiaomi devices.
And about the unlock key: Have you tried to get one like echo92 posted? Have you tried to use the
fastboot oem unlock command?
Here you find a complete guide for rooting your device, the first part is only about flashing stock firmware. Just follow the first part of this guide but use the above firmware.

As Wolfcity has mentioned above, the slot suffix is normal for our devices as we don't have A/B partitioning. To illustrate, if I boot my G4 Plus to fastboot and then issue the command 'fastboot reboot' from ADB, using minimal ADB 1.4.3 and the Motorola USB drivers, on Windows 10 64 bit, this is the output:
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot reboot
(bootloader) slot-count: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.176s
Also, as I asked you in your PM, have you actually posted to that Motorola thread? Once AlphaDog or one of the moderators sees your post in that thread, they should start the process for getting you an unlock key, or at least advise you on what to do next. I do not know if posting outside of that Motorola thread will get you results.
A month ago my Moto g5 plus died trying to fix a Moto Z Play from a friend. I had mistakenly connected my cell phone thinking it was my friend's and I ended up flashing mine by mistake. Since then my Potter died! I have tried everything to be able to relive it but I can not find the way. I have downloaded all the official Stock Roms and none has been able to raise my phone again.
The result after the flash was that the original bootlader that I had changed completely! Now I have the data of a Moto Z Play on my Moto G5 Plus.
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)
BL: C1.07 (sha-9d7f987, 2017-04-01 13:44:07).
Is there any way to relive it again? The Model is Moto G5 Plus Potter XT1680 32GB P3B. Every day I try to do something new but I can not find the way anymore ....

I think you need to use the blankflash from albus. If you flashed Z Play's firmware then you changed the bootloader of your G5 Plus to Z Play's. Have you tried the albus blankflash? Please report after trying.

I can not download the albus blankflash from the page because it does not exist. I got a BlankFlash from Moto Z Play from another side but when I run the .bat it remains on waiting device.
In device manager I am listed as "Fastboot Potter S", after installing the driver, it is in ADB Interface. But from there I can not execute Blankflash.
Another solution?
This is the flash file that no longer appears on the page but I can not find it on the other hand the same link
cloud vache-android com/Moto/albus/blankflash/
Try downloading blankflash from here...
https://androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=213037
Is your ADB and Fastboot working correctly on PC?
Download the flash blank but it still does not work. The ADB and Fastboot works correctly but it does not let me run the blank flash. Any other idea?
If I try to load a rom from Fastboot, it works. But if I try to do blank flash with the qbot.exe command from the .bat it does not work.
It is always on <waiting device>

Not really sure why I'm tagged here... This isn't my area of expertise at all.
Sorry, but I have no incite here.
@NZedPred, @echo92
Hmm, is your bootloader unlocked? In the G5 plus unbrick guide, those users who managed to recover their device after using the albus bootloader and the addison2potter GPT/bootloader were only able to use stock TWRP flashables (though you didn't hard brick, flashing the Z play bootloader is a similar result). I'm not sure if flashing a stock ROM via fastboot is an option, due to the different bootloader. There are reports that the stock ROM may be flashable if you omit the GPT and bootloader, however you'd need an unlocked bootloader and also you'd have to forget about using OTA updates at all. Else, you'd likely actually hard brick this time with an OTA update.
Thus, if you can, stock TWRP flashables or a custom ROM are likely your best options.
Just checking if you've tried these:
- Fastboot to boot a TWRP image (i.e. fastboot boot twrp.img, where twrp.img is a TWRP file)
- Fastboot to flash just a bootloader from the right device
This isn't really my area of expertise either. I usually fix things after having broken them myself, but I don't want to try this
