A locked bootloader really means that it's locked to the verification of the manufacture's stock ROM. If the ROM being flashed does not pass the verification process, the bootloader stops the flash.

Does it have to be the original flash from the company until it accepts it?

I'm not clear what you are asking. Could you try asking the question again but differently please.

Only stock rom generated and SIGNED by Essential can be flashed or side loaded to a locked bootloader.
Nothing else will be successful.

I have asked that the bootloader was locked and stuck
It does not accept any 'update' how it can be repaired
I have an essential ph1 and I can not work it for an hour. I got the update and stuck on the logo and I have not been working since then and I'm trying to fix the problem and I can not find the solution

(Q) Need some Advice (bootloader)

Hey guys i need some advice/help.
I returned my phone because of some screen issues and when it came back i noticed something strange, before returning my phone i already had unlocked my bootloader so i wanted to check if this still was the case. So i booted in to the bootloader screen and noticed the the device status had changed to an engineering device (see picture).
So now the questions what can i do with a engineering device or what does it mean, is my bootloader still unlocked or do i need to unlock it again or will unlocking it again remove the engineering status.
Christ! Engineering Bootloader haha...
What happens when you do OEM Unlock?

I wouldn't do that. This might change the status from Engineering to Unlocked and he might never be able to change it back to Engineering again.
I think this is a status that is reserved for servicing the phone and allows engineers to do all sorts of things to the phone, even more than what can be done when Unlocked.
I hope some dev can shed some light on this.
The Holy F-ing Grail!!!! LOL

"Bump"
Hi guys i have a "motorola confidencial property" phone with the same problem,can you help me to update android? the OS have some bugs,thanks in advance from Argentina
What's the problem? Op said he was able to flash recovery.
Guessing when they were working on it they forgot to relock it for customer status. Someone might pay you good money for that device.

Unlocking Bootloader

I cannot seem to get the unlock bootloader page to load on Huawei's website. It keeps giving me a 'Server too busy, try again later' message. I have been trying for 2 weeks.
Huawei's support doesnt seem to understand me via email.
Is it being blocked somehow by my ISP? i havent seen anyone else report on this
i don't know if i can... some moderators maybe can shed some light.. if i make a thread to help others to unlock bootloader's and they give me their phone info's... on private of course, it's prohibited?
Well the question is can you get to the page to unlock the bootloader on huaweis website?

Stok rom, no root, bootloader locked , no costum recovery.
I bought this phone "second hand" and all works good, but next day when i woke up i seen the phone "Welcome" and when i want to add my google account says "the phone was reset..."
Sorry for my bad English .
same problem....any solutions?
The purpose of the FRP is to protect personal property and information in the event the device is lost or stolent, so being able to circumvent that would defeat it's sole purpose.
Your best bet would be to email the Gmail you have on the phone and see if you can meet up again to disconnect the Gmail associated with it. Another possibility is to contact Google about the situation, perhaps they will contact the previous owner to verify the device was sold and to remove the email from the phone?

[Q] LG G6 (H870) Unlock

My sister bought an G6 from someone, but when it boots it says that it is needed to fill in the credentials from the previous owner. But the previous owner is not replying.
So I thought it would be easy to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and reflash the device. I tried with minimal ADB and fastboot (newest version) and TOOL ALL IN ONE. But I get stuck because I'm missing unlock.bin
Anyone knows a workaround? Or another way to hard-reset the device? :good:
Lgup and uppercut.
Or your need to get the unlock.bin from lg dev website.

I didn't know. I suggest mod to move it.
And btw I don't understand why ****ing Poland is messing with European laws and why they block all black foreigners and refugees!
Anyone? Is there an G6 image which supports the REFURBISH function on LGUP/Uppercut? Or another option? Thank you big time.
Just wait the vendor you reply, or file a complaint, they must pay you back if the device does not work properly, and he has surely stolen it, nobody here will help you to unlock this phone because it can be used by thieves

OP5 bootloader relock and reencrypt

I've done some searching and I couldn't find any straight forward info about how to relock the bootloader and reencrypt my OP5.
I'll sell it but the buyer asked for it.
Can anyone shed some light and/or direct me to a thread I can rely on in order to do so?

if the customer wants it all stock, u can use that unbrick tool. it'll get ur device all stock again (I guess). do some research bout it before, as I'm still a newbie nd this may just seem a bad idea.
Good luck!✌?

You can have it even simpler(https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...bootloader-flash-twrp-t3704592/post79512430), but it's also a way.
