[How to]Relock Bootloader

My mobile:
ZF2 ZE551ML 2GB [ROOTED] [BT UNLOCKED]
bear with me!!!!!!!!
I had Hard Bricked my phone previously
[xFSTK Method] i flashed the .RAW file to recover it
After fewdays
I flashed TWRP
but when i try to open recovery it again boots to bootloader
i researched a lot and found that BT must be unlocked (i already unlocked though)
Then i again unlocked BT.. Im Successful in flashing
So,
Do i relocked the bootloader using the .RAW file??
can i able to relock it if i do the same(flash .RAW file)??
Did the black splash screen come back after you flashed the RAW image?
No

Nope.. I flashed Black Splash screen Later
I do believe what you are saying, cause I can actually relate it to changing of motherboard
I found a tutorial for bootlader unlocking but I can't try it 'cause I already haven't the ZF2.

I rooted my phone with method 3 with stock .165, j just make sure you have the latest 1 click root kit. Restart your phone then try it again.

I Checked, I apply method 1
I have tried to root my ZF2 using method 3 and nothing happens...was successful before the latest update but nothing now....
And when I attempt to root it using method 2 see a response flicker on the screen for a very short time saying "unauthorised"...is this something to do with the latest update or something else? Anyone seen this before?
cheers

1. Wrong thread.
2. Wrong forum :silly:
3. This One Click Root is only for ZenFone 2 devices.
4. I don't think that AT&T devices could be unlocked. Not only AT&T, Verizon does the same thing too. Maybe you could look for working root method on this forum.

Did you check/enable USB debugging mode in Developers Option? Then try again. Check also in Device and Printer in your PC if your MTP has no yellow warning sign. If it does then you need to update your drivers correctly.

have you check using command promt that you asus device is detected. Better use the stock USB chord of ASUS. IF you have done all of that stuff, then I don't know how to help you anymore..

How exactly did you root it?

locking bootloader? Android 8

I went into super su and unrooted my phone. Can I lock my bootloader now or is this a bad idea?

Bad idea. Next update might fail from left over stuff from root or a mod...then you are done.

The solution (I think) would be to wipe data and flash the entire stock image for your phone, then re-lock the bootloader. This will make sure that any folders/files pertaining to being rooted are gone and shouldn't cause any problems when it comes to validating your OS. Just make sure you properly unrooted SU by using their uninstaller/unroot tool before wiping and reflashing.

Yes run flashall unless you are extremely brave. I used to lock and unlock my nexus 6 bootloader with custom firmwares but this phone is a completely different animal

Flash. all to both slots and be sure to include -w
Out of curiosity, why do you even wish to lock the bootloader? Especially with the numerous horror stories of users unable to resurrect a bootlooping device (rather simple to fix if unlocked) because their bootloader is locked.

Locking the bootloader is always a bad idea if you have to ask if it's a bad idea.

Just an FYI, here's someone that locked their bl. Only 2 reasons I can see this as necessary is RMA, and Android pay. And Android pay works with magisk, so really only one reason. Just be sure to know what you're doing. https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/help/pixel-xl-bricked-bootloader-locked-t3698638/page2
