Hi.. I am a noob but I am a pro in Mi4 ( cancro) but this time It has locked bootloader and I got unlocked img from zuk developer website is about 512 byte and two users comment in the bootloder unlocking and twrp recovery section they are facing issue and actually unlocked boot img file should have 1kb but I am confused and another q can I flash terble compatable twrp at once and regarding rom installation also which partition to be earsed ( efs) and which not to and baseband update section I got it and rom installation I got but after baseband update I have to restore Efs???
And what is the size of unlocked boot img you guys got
Which zui you do have? Probably nougat one, so ur baseband should be 1.70, if its then there is no need to flash baseband.
Don't know about size on unlock img but you should go ahead and see ifs its getting any error then share here.
Ok
One more thing baseband for oreo is needed
I want to flash aex oreo
And what is that efs

First flash official twrp then according to your need and read full post carefully of the rom you are going to install.
There are several twrp and vendor to factory and vice versa zips, some latest build of roms need these zips to be flashed first and some don't required treble twrp so first read instructions carefully,
Ya I did but I have misconception with baseband
Can you msg me in whtsapp 9853687062
Bro plz msg me

If your baseband is 1.70 you don't need to flash baseband

Look around on the forums. There are 3 versions of TWRP for this phone in the ROMs, Kernels, and other development section.
I flashed a modified bootloader to use magisk with oos as it forced seslinux to premissive
now i need to go back to stock bootloader
can anyone provide me zip for the stock bootloader so i can flash it throught twrp
the modified bootloader thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/magisk-oxygen-os-8-0-op3-3t-t3689901
the mordified bootloader zip file is in the download links ->magisk 14.3 zip-> oneplus_bootloader.zip

Sure? You're wrong: the mentioned link include only bootloader+modem that are coming with every OOS release.
There's no system partition, because that packages are built for custom rom users.
I used them for a long time, until I went back to modded stock.
Ps also full firmware include bootloader+modem partitions, otherwise you would get in hard brick especially with major updates.
Are you referring to a particular partition? What you mean for firmware?

Yes they do include that bootloader img i have tried flashing multiple boot images but i used a bootloader zip from. A dev that changed the setting of my selinux of bootloader from enforced to permissive in order to use magisk 14.2 with oos as magisk earlier didnt support enforced state.... That is only poossible to replace when you have a bootloader zip that include instructions to do so .. So the default bootloader zip will have that instruction as default values

Guys i need some help ASAP,today i installed a custom rom[Lineage 15] on my a5 520F and my sim card is not showing up,what can i do?
Please help me!!:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Dis you flashed the oreo bootloader and radio first?'cause i think you may have the nougat ones
It's probably caused by an incompatible bootloader and modem. If you just want to get it working again then probably best thing to do is find your original firmware (on Sammobile, Updato etc) and reflash it with the correct version of Odin.
If you still want to get Lineage 15 to work and you're sure you flashed the right ROM for the correct phone then you can try flashing the Oreo bootloader and modem (Lineage 15 is based on Oreo). There's a thread here with bootloaders and modems: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...to/ref-modems-bootloaders-collection-t3799551
Ok , so first i need to go to recovery and make a full wipe then go to download mode and install the bootloader and modem and then install the custom rom trough recovery??

Yes,you can flash other roms or other stock variety but you should not have to downgrade bootloader as it will hard brick your device.

While you use custom roms imei is there???
Long story short bought a G5 Cedric running latest official firmware oreo 8.1, didn't like it cuz it's too heavy, unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp then flashed lineage 17 but can't pass safetynet,(clean) flashed resurrection remix after same problem, then i flashed omni rom and suddenly my IMEI was gone and can't install gapps, what to do now? I just want a good custom rom that passes safetynet, don't care if it's pie or Q.
Flash a rom where imei works
Backup efs partition using 64bit twrp
You can then restore efs partition if you loose imei
With regards to safetynet none of the custom roms will pass without you doing some work
You need to flash magisk
Flash Busybox magisk module
Flash props config module and follow all the instructions on how to change device fingerprint eg to a pixel 4 https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-magiskhide-props-config-t3789228/
Hide magisk manager with a random package name from magisk settings
Hide app that detects root with magisk hide from its settings
You can also try the universal safetynet patcher magisk module if the above doesn't work but some report it causes bootloops on some devices/roms
Thank you for the quick response, i have a few questions regarding what you said:
1- how will i know which rom to flash where the IMEI works before flashing the actual rom itself?
2- how do i know if my current twrp is 64bit or not? it's the one from the Lineage 17 thread.
3- when im succesfull in executing those steps and i have to back up efs, where can i find it to restore it if i flash another rom again? because last time before flahsing i wiped system,dalvik & Cache & data but not the storage and yet my back-up was gone?

1 - You will have to try roms yourself to find out
2 - All custom roms from oero onwards are 64bit - you wouldn't be able to flash them without a 64bit twrp so you already have one
3 - data/media/twrp/backups or storage/emulated/0/twrp/backups
I recommend changing the storage location to your sdcard so they don't get deleted when you wipe data or transferring to a pc
Formatting data is effectively formatting internal storage as the device is encrypted

fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
If rebuilding the efs doesn't work I do not know
Backup efs first incase it fails to rebuild and imei is 0 again - use a twrp 64 bit to back it up and obviously save to sdcard & pc incase you need to re-flash rom as wiping data will erase your backup on internal storage

If it doesn't work in rom then move back to stock Oreo and once you got the 4g take backup of efs and persist and move to custom ROM. If the 4g is available then no need to restore backup, if not restore the backup and enjoy 4g.

I wouldn't re-lock it for several reasons
1- you need the unlock code to unlock it again & Motorola will say its already been unlocked
2 - Even if you re-lock it it will still display its been unlocked previously
3 - if you ever need to flash stock firmware via fastboot again it may fail with permission denied as the firmware may not be fully signed & you can't flash unsigned firmware with a locked bootloader
4 - if you ota update & it it fails & you hardbrick then again same as point 3
If you really want to Google how to & you need fully signed firmware else it will not lock

I'm going to respond to each point you mentioned:
1- I still have the email from Lenovo containing the unlock code, do i need the same code to relock the bootloader?
2-are you sure it will still say it's been unlocked before?
3-what does fully signed mean? i searched through the link you sent me earlier and i found the same one that i flashed through LMSA, that is XT1676_CEDRIC_RETEU_DS_8.1.0_OPP28.85-19-4-2_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip is the one I flashed through LMSA not fully signed?
4-there's no updates anymore after the version i mentioned in point 3.
side question: does this method you mentioned still applies to relock the bootloader without the aforementioned issues?
PS: it still says ID: bad key on the bootloader unlocked warning, even though i retrieved my IMEI number, shouldn't it display my IMEI number instead of bad key?

You don't need code to lock bootloader - just to unlock it
Yes the bootloader will display its locked but will also give a status code that states its been previously unlocked
Fully signed means each part of the firmware has been signed by Motorola - sometimes the boot.img isn't
You will always get bad key or n/a with an unlocked bootloader - this is normal - you can flash a modded logo.bin to replace this
Those are the steps to re-lock the boot-loader - obviously oreo firmware has more sparsechunk so add the extra parts
