How to check Bootloader Status

I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to check if my Note 3 has a locked bootloader or not?
Can't seem to find anything on Google or on here on how to do it.

Which model?

Then your bootloader is unlocked by default.

That is good to know, makes a change from being stuck with a locked one on my previous phones.
Thanks again for the reply!

[Q] How to make sure that bootloader is locked?

Hi,
How can I test that bootloader(Download mode) is locked on my Samsung Note 3(N9005) after I installed CyanogenMod?
Fastboot command tool doesn't see my device(I can see device with adb outside the Download Mode).
Is it possible to lock Download mode on Samsung device?
Thanks.

Only verizon version(sm-n900v?) is bootloader locked. N9005 is international so it isn't locked.

Hi, thanks for fast reply.
In this case it there an option to lock bootloader? Or replacing it with the one that I can lock?
Thank you.

Why you need to lock it?. Never see anybody asking how to lock bl. Samsung didn't make it lockable anyway.

It's recommended for security purposes. Google shows a lot of reasons to do that(can't post links due to new account, but search for "android bootloader lock security" will give plenty of examples)
So for Samsung it's impossible to lock or to replace it with something that could be locked?

Locking and all other things fastboot is made for is NOT MADE/WORKING for Samsung Devices except the Galaxy Nexus. You have a open bootloader and you can only flash by bootloader if you use ODIN.

An att note 3 900a running kk also has a locked bootloader.

Sure, but he has a N9005 ^^

I know, I was just commenting on the fact that the note 3 from att also has a locked bootloader. The remaining note 3 variants do not have a locked bootloader and they cannot be locked unless the locking is done by Samsung.

Go to download mode, flash original rom using odin. Then if you wanna do something, make sure check 'oem unlock' in developer options to prevent locked by frp

I think this procedure is for model SM-G928F, this thread is about model SM-G928G.
