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).

How to BlankFlash a working Device ?

So, here is my problem that somehow my bootloader or any one of the partition is corrupted which somehow messup with the moto g4 plus HW partition file and corrupt it. I try to push a edited file but it tucks the recovery. The only hope light is from the Blankflash as it actually flashes everything from scratch.
The main thing is that my device is working just it shows y Moto g4 plus a Moto g4 with no sim working and no fingerprint working. I can't connect my device as a “Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008” as my device bootup in fastboot mode always. So, any workaround to Blankflash a working device anyone please.
its easy, first download very old fastboot stock rom, for instance Android marshmallow, which is very old;
flash it using fastboot and take OTA, it will miss-match the GPT and boot-loader Because GPT partition is not downgradable and it will brick your phone,
then you can flash the working blankflash
I would do the same. Can you explain me exactly how i brick my Phone to use the blankflash?
thx

Moto G5 Plus XT1680 Flash Mode with other Bootloader

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.

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
