There is no way of doing it at the moment, not sure there ever will be.

If it's still locked, do you mind keeping it that way for just a little bit? It's possible we can figure out how to re-lock if we can get a bootloader dump. It's also possible that unlocking your bootloader will report to ASUS that it's been unlocked and it will void the warranty even if we can figure out how to lock it back up.
Maybe try this tool: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.partitions
And then report to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-2-laser/general/ze600kl-official-bootloader-unlock-t3273263

Bootloader unlocked warning?

Anyone found a method to remove bootloader unlocked warning?

That's annoying me too!
Can you lock the bootloader again after Root?

You can, but it will cause a bootloop. Before relocking your bootloader, you should unroot first.

Good to know. I'll just live with the black warning I guess

Oh well... Are you sure?
And if you re-unlock after bootloop it will work again?

You flash it in TWRP, its root

How do you relock your bootloader?
Using that mia1 all in one tool? Or manually through cmd?

Magisk don't work after you lock the bootloader. I tried it and it ends in a boot loop everytime I did it. So stop speaking nonsense.

I did something like this
but I can't remember if it was exactly this one. At least i removed the floodlight at startup xD
