If I choose to convert from yakjuxw to yakju.. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Is there then an easy way to relock the bootloader and wipe any trace of it ever being unlocked?
I know I sound a bit paranoid, but what if I need to send it in for a warranty-related problem?
I got my phone today and was actually a tad disappointed over it being "Samsung-branded" with the yakjuxw-build. One would think it would be entirely managed by Google with it being a Google phone and all.

use the gnex toolkit to flash to google version, then use it to relock bootloader. 10 min thing

If you care about voiding the warranty, then I would recommend that you do the following BEFORE unlocking your bootloader:
Plug it into USB, reboot into bootloader.
Type "fastboot getvar all".
You'll probably see a variable called "unlocked" which would be set to "no" or "0". See if there are any variables listed there that talk about warranty. If there are, then I wouldn't recommend unlocking because even if you re-lock the bootloader, they'll know it was unlocked at some point.
I know that this was not an issue on the Nexus S (also made by Samsung). You could re-lock the bootloader and nobody would be any the wiser.
The reason I suggested you try it was because of the Motorola Xoom (which of course is another Google Experience device with an unlockable bootloader). On all Xoom bootloaders, there's the standard "unlocked" bootloader variable, but also an additional one called "IsWarrantyVoid". From the factory, both bootloader variables are set to "no". As soon as you unlock the bootloader for the first time, both variables are set to "yes". If you then go and lock it again, "Unlocked" gets set to "no", but "IsWarrantyVoid" remains "yes" and there's nothing you can do to change it.
So I think you're OK because this is a Samsung device, but just double check it before you unlock the bootloader. If you don't see any kind of bootloader variable pertaining to warranty, I say go for it. I did a quick check of bootloader variables on my LTE Gnex and didn't see anything suspicious, but it sounds like you have a GSM version, so you should check yourself just to be absolutely sure.

I dared to unlock the bootloader and flash yakju 4.0.2. I mainly flashed 4.0.2 too see if OTA's work and they seem to. Got a small 8mb update but no .3 or .4 as of yet. Gonna check tomorrow morning, though. It's 10.40 pm here.
When on 4.0.4, I'll root.
I couldn't even stay from tampering with my 7 hours old phone, lol. Let's just hope I won't need any repairs. ^^

Hmm..."secure" worries me. I'm sure this is a stupid question to ask at a place like XDA, but does anyone have a GSM Gnex that has NOT been unlocked yet? Can you tell us the value of "secure"? I went back and checked on my LTE Gnex and it's there and also set to "no". I missed that one the first time around.

Unlock, flash temp Clockwork, make backup, done.
Just restore that backup and you'll be back to yakjuxw. Reboot after restore to remove temp Clockwork, then relock bootloader. Good as new.
P.S. might be a good idea to note the radio your phone came with, in case you flash a different one. Clockwork does not backup radio, so you'll just need to flash the radio before restoring to stock.

Yes, which makes me wonder if it's set to "yes" out of the factory, then set to no upon first unlock. "Secure" reeks of being Samsung's version of Motorola's "IsWarrantyVoid".
I'm sure most of us here at XDA unlocked our bootloader the day we got the phone even if we ended up re-locking it a day later. I'm hoping that someone has a girlfriend or parents or somebody that has a Galaxy Nexus that's never been unlocked in order to check the value of that "secure" variable.

secure is basically another way of telling if the bootloader is secure, it's nothing to get scared over

So does it come from the factory set to no?

On HTC devices, the secu_flag (or secure flag) is what dictates if the bootloader is re-lockable. If the flag is set to 1, you cannot re-lock the bootloader; if it is set to 0, you can. I'm just speculating here, but it may be similar on a Samsung device. Confirmation would be needed of course.

That's great info to know. Thanks!

[Q] [Q&A]How big is this issue?

I'll start with a little background, then I'll get to the point. I got a "Verizon" HTC One M7 from ebay. It had a cracked screen, but it was in pretty fine working condition. I took it to a shop to have the screen replaced because it looked a little too complicated for me. Got it back and noticed it didn't have any reception when I charged it back up. Flashed a new ROM and radios, but still no reception.
My problems multiplied once I attempted to downgrade to see if that would revive the reception. I ended up sending it to jtag because I bricked it in the process. Fast-forward to today where I have my phone back, in working condition, somewhat, but no reception. I'm told that it has a GSM board, not CDMA. It was advertised as a Verizon phone and had a signal when I got it. Possibly switched at shop...I don't know.
Now, all I want to do is get a working phone. How do I proceed to get it working so that I can, at the very least, sell a working phone to get one that I can flash to PagePlus?
Go to about phone and check the software information. Post a screenshot of that.
Ok...here's what I have...
Go into fastboot mode and use the fastboot get-var all command and post that as well. That might be able to tell for sure if it is gsm or not. If it is you won't be able to get a signal at all with Verizon. On the plus side you should be able to flash the correct firmware for that board and sell that phone to someone else as a gsm phone. It should work just fine on gsm as long as the correct firmware is flashed.

Problem with my HTC One M8 with ROMs?

I have tried to install a new custom ROM on my HTC One M8.
It has a unlocked bootloader, it's unlocked, rooted, and i've had InsertCoin and Paranoid Android, and CyanogenMod on it.
My device is S-ON.
However, lately I have not been able to update to any of the newer roms.
The ROMs that I have tried to install are:
HTC_One_(M8)_-_MaximusHD_11.0.0
insertcoin-m8_5.0.3_ART
ViperOneM8_4.2.0_v2
And none of them work except for
pa_m8-4.45-20140729
which is always my go-to ROM right now when the others fail so I don't soft brick it.
I do have a Nandroid in case everything goes to hell.
But my question is, what is wrong with my device and why can't I update to another ROM? It gets stuck at the HTC White Logo screen every single time with every ROM that fails.
Thanks!

You have old hboot and firmware version.

Here is my information on my phone, so it would seem that I am outdated. How would I get back up to date?
Here is the RUU for your device version : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58771521&postcount=4593
This will update your device to the latest lollipop 4.20.531.4
1. put your device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC
2. run command to relock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
3. Right click the RUU exe that you downloaded, select "run as administrator" .. wait for it to run, later there is a dialog box, accept, next, next, update, blablabla until it finish and your device rebooted... done.
Note : this will wipe everything on your internal storage. Make a backup of important files before you proceed.
Then if you want to install custom ROM again, re-unlock bootloader & install any custom recovery that you like.

Also, do I need to "re unlock" my phone? Or can I just do "fastboot oem unlock" because I have once before unlocked it?

No .. you need to unlock it with the unlock_code.bin that you received from HTCDev when you first unlock your device.
If you don't have it, reapply a new one.
I see, okay I unlocked it again.
While I'm at it, I wanted to ask one final question that's been bugging me for a while now.
When I got to my Philz recovery and do "factory wipe" why doesn't it actually wipe my data?
I want ALL of my data, ROM, apps, everything to be gone, but it doesn't do that.
Is there an alternative?
Is there no way to remove all user data/apps?
I don't use Philz recovery so not sure how to help you. Maybe try an older version 6.26.6
I use only TWRP and now your device already updated to 5.0.1; you need to use TWRP 2.8.4.0 or the latest 2.8.5.0
Okay I am on TWRP, how do I do a factory reset on TWRP?
and what exactly will it do?
I just hope it'll actually wipe everything when I factory reset it. Or else I don't see a point of even having a factory reset option
It's all depends on what you want to do.
Factory reset - to prepare your device to install next ROM, it wipes user data, cache, dalvik cache
I always prefer - wipe menu - advance - select data, cache, dalvik, system - this wipe everything except internal storage.
To wipe data and internal storage - wipe menu - advance - format data - yes
I got to go now ... bed time

Root and Recovery

Has anyone successfully rooted and put recovery on this device?
I guess we have to wait for a while before someone find a way to root. If zte allows easy way to unlock bootloader. Also depends how popular this phone is between the community. (Apparently not popular at all)
it's problably time to abandon all hope for ever getting this phone rooted. It's such a shame because it actually is a pretty nice phone.
Should have checked earlier whether there is root already.
Actually it should not be that difficult to compile a twrp image since the phone has a pretty common setup (Snapdragen 435 (non-Pro) and Snapdragon 635 (Pro).

Jup. Tried it myself. It seems they have modified fastboot. Apart from

the bootloader is responding with

Yea I wanted to get a ZTE too but I did what you didn't (look up if it can be rooted) and that's why I snubbed ZTE and went for a lenovo zuk z2 for example.
Unfortunately there are no black Zuk Z2 Pro available anymore. White one are no option for me.

It is definitely possible. I know the axon 7 has a very similar bootloader situation. They were able to bypass it with a custom flashable image. unfortunately it is not compatible with the blade. I have been investigating it though. I am not the most qualified to do this, but this phone has so much potential, but it is stuck on old software. I don't want to see that happen.

Every time I run fastboot oem get_unlock_data regardless if it be on Linux or windows, fastboot or mfastboot it fails. It says <bootloader> Failed to get unlock data. I have tried reinstalling drivers, installing alternate drivers, and reflashing the phone to the latest firmware. I saw someone with a similar thread for the z2 but their solution did not work. I have been using Motorola phones for a long time and had unlocked the bootloader on my previous z2 with no problems. The only thing I didn't do yet is trying to format the userdata partition. I highly doubt that will help anyway. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Everything looks legit, weird. Make sure you have oem unlocking enabled in developer options, grab the utilities zip from the return to stock thread (since it has known good adb/fastboot), unzip, shift+right click to open a command window from inside the folder. Reboot to bootloader mode, verify connection 'fastboot devices", then try to get the unlock data again.

Make sure your fastboot file is up to date (or use the one in the utilities zip in the return to stock thread), and try using a direct 2.0 usb port off the mobo. Might seem superficial, but it does cause problems for some.

What does it say under the oem unlock switch in developer options? You also mentioned that you had reflashed firmware previously but with a locked bootloader you shouldn't have been able to. Are you able to boot and install twrp? If your bootloader is truly locked, you shouldn't be able to.

You are able to reflash the latest stock firmware USING FASTBOOT on a locked bootloader IF it is signed by Motorola and this is a well known fact.

Remember when installing TWRP for the first time you must first 'BOOT" TWRP and then flash the TWRP Installer zip. There are a few other steps to follow after installation so please read the guide if you are unfamiliar with the process. Good luck and happy flashing!

Not always. There have been instances where the phone has relocked itself and won't flash anything, even official signed. Usually the oem unlock switch is greyed out as well with a message near it, that's why I was curious about the oem unlock switch. Usually there is a status message near the switch itself. In this scenario the phone seems locked but is more in some hybrid lock that doesn't allow much of anything.

Also the switch isn't grayed out. do u think a factory data reset would help? Cuz I don't want to do it if I don't need to.

At this point you don't have much of an option. Everything seems in order, you're able to flash, fastboot commands work, except oem unlock. I would.

Okay I will try tomorrow

[Unlock / Relock] Bootloader

If you want to unlock bootloader, just follow the motorola guide.
For trouble shooting or more info about how to get your "cid" and see if it's unlockable , have a look here.
If you want to relock it:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
...
(bootloader) WARNING: This command erases all user data.
(bootloader) Please re-run this command to continue.
OKAY [ 0.080s]
finished. total time: 0.080s
Code:
fastboot oem lock
...
(bootloader) warranty bit blown
(bootloader) Lock complete! Flash signed images after reboot if needed
OKAY [ 0.943s]
finished. total time: 0.944s
So, um, is it unlockable? (Given the article linked is generic across all Moto phones, and the list of unlockable phones does not actually list the Moto One Vision.) Apparently you can run
Code:
fastboot getvar all
with the phone in bootloader mode to get the cid, and if it is one of: 0x0000, 0x0003, 0x0007, 0x0009, 0x000B, 0x000C, 0x000D, 0x000E, 0x0014, 0x00DE or 0x0032; but no others, its bootloader can be unlocked.
Asking because there's an Amazon UK Prime Day deal on today and tomorrow for this phone where it's 25% off its regular price, and I'd rather only buy it if, once its warranty runs out as do the Android One security updates, there's a chance for me to unlock the bootloader and put on, say, Lineage OS. My LG G5 is on its last legs and I do need a new phone, and it'll be a long while before this phone regularly sells used for £199.99 here in the UK. Especially with Brexit, and therefore an impending Sterling devaluation, closing fast.
(I gather the "Amazon Prime phones" mentioned as non-unlockable in the article are US Amazon Prime exclusive phones such as the Moto G6 and X4 that were for a time offered only to Amazon Prime customers in the US.)

Yes. Developer Mode has an option to unlock the bootloader.
£199 quid is a hell of a deal ; considering I shelled out £269 last month for mine.
Would you (or anyone with an EU version of this handset really) be kind enough to get the cid in bootloader mode using fastboot per my earlier post? I gather that the cid is the ultimate arbiter of whether the bootloader is unlockable, and that even permanently-locked bootloader handsets have similar firmware that has the Enable OEM unlock option in Developer Mode. (I'm happy to be corrected on this point.)
Answering my own question, the cid of a Motorola One Vision bought off Amazon Italy turned out to be 0x0032, indicating that its bootloader may be unlockable:
Code:
(bootloader) cid: 0x0032
You can boot into the bootloader from a powered-off, cable disconnected state by:
holding down the volume-down key
plugging in the USB cable whose other end is already connected to a computer with the Motorola Device Manager drivers installed
Then fastboot works.
(Why did I buy it from Amazon Italy rather than Amazon UK, taking advantage of the Prime Day deal? Despite the fact that Amazon UK showed the Prime Day deal was meant to run for 48 hours, at midnight, Amazon UK pulled its own merchant listing, leaving only third-party sellers, and so the Prime Day deal became unavailable. Amazon Italy had a lightning deal the following day on the phone for €249.99, which was a better price than I could find anywhere else. So I bought it, having missed out on the Prime Day deal the previous day. Thanks, Amazon. Thamazon.)

FYI Amazon Spain seem to have had this handset at a decent price since Prime Day, and the price hasn't gone back up yet -- the price is down €40 from its usual €299.99 price to €259.99 since last week. Not quite as good as the €249.99 Lightning Deal on Amazon Italy from a week ago, and nowhere near as good as the £199.99 Amazon UK Prime Day deal, but still a good deal. (On Amazon Italy it's €269.99 starting today, but on the other Amazon Eurozone websites it's still €299.99, and in the UK the Amazon usual offer of £269.99 is back.)

Yea it's sold by amazon.it at 299 euro, I was near to gets an galaxy a70 but seems they have troubles to run gsi roms. I'll order Moto's phone pretty soon, but I'd like to compile his kernel first so if done well I'll get it.
My phone is a RETBR with cid: 0x0032. Motorola sent me an unlock code that seemingly works, however I'm unable to activate OEM unlock under developer options, as it's greyed out. Any ideas?

Impossible to relock the bootloader
Good afternoon,
I am trying to Relock the bootloader again, but it does not work.
I have followed the instructions of the first post.
The command screen when I try to unlock it is as follows:
Then I turn on the smartphone and the following screen appears:
I'm going to "Settings / Developer options", and I can't activate "OEM unlocking", it's gray
I have followed the clarification of post # 8 and nothing changes..
I am doing something wrong? Is there any solution?

Then I turn on the smartphone and the following screen appears:
I'm going to "Settings / Developer options", and I can't activate "OEM unlocking", it's gray
I have followed the clarification of post # 8 and nothing changes..
I am doing something wrong? Is there any solution?

Hi. I have relocked my bootloader twice but never seen anything like that.
A quick google suggests that a factory reset before relock should work. Other says that rooting with magisk made the oem toggle usable again so that they could relock. You'll have to reflash firmware before ofc, cause you don't wanna get it locked with non signed code flashed to it
Let me know if you get it solved.

Good Morning,
I don't know if I understood you well, I'm sorry, my English is not perfect.
First inform you, it is not essential to relock the bootloader. I just want to do it, to update via OTA.
If I can update it manually with the bootloader unlocked, I would not need to relock it.
Can I do it as you indicate in this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80903809&postcount=23?
I have not rooted the smartphone yet, I will do so soon as explained in this thread: TWRP 3.3.1 & Root for Moto 1 Vision
It occurs to me...
Do you think it would be fixed by reflashing the latest firmware again manually as you explain in this thread: [XT1970-X] Stock firmware share thread. [TOOL] fastboot flash / info

Have you tried full reflash with wipe, and then boot it and go through the setup so that it connects online?
Have you tried with root to see if the toggle gets enabled?

Good morning,
I've only done a "factory setting", I don't know how to do a wipe and everything you tell me.
I hope to root the smartphone in the next few days! Another challenge!, hehe.
I hope I don't keep a brick.
I'll tell you how it goes
Regards and thanks

Good afternoon,
I don't know how to do it: "full reflash with wipe, and then boot it and go through the setup so that it connects online?", maybe I've done it without knowing it.
Anyway something strange is happening, it is updated via OTA (PSAS29.160-55-7-1) although it has the bootloader locked.
Rooting is delayed due to a doubt: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=81281003 until I solve it, I will not do it for fear of the brick.

Good afternoon,
After rooting it, it seems that everything has been fixed.

Did anyone find the solution to this problem?
I've tried everything, completely reflashing retail rom, retbr rom, installed magisk on an encrypted phone, on an unencrypted phone, erased the phone data, unerased... Every f*CK*NG thing and the switch is still grayed out...
I want to relock my bootloader but I just can't.... I don't know what to do anymore...
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot

No idea why that is.
While rooted, I have no problems with the oem unlock toggle.

Not only that, I've rooted using different methods. Encrypted phone, not encrypted, old magisk, new magisk, and the list goes on. The oem unlock Is always grey...
