How to check bootloader unlock? - OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear all,
Merry Xmas and Happy New Year
I am new to oneplus x.
I rooted using this method i. e. Without PC.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-root-oneplus-x-twrp-pc-t3251027
Then I use flashify (app from appstore) to flash TWRP.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...recovery-twrp-2-8-7-0-touch-recovery-t3252840
Then i flash blu_a Kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/kernel-t3250995
How can i check if my bootloader is unlocked? For other phones, my understanding is that as long as u can flash twrp, bootloader is unlocked.

I think you can only check that with the adb tools on your computer.
Command to check bootloader status: fastboot oem device-info

I thought the bootloader needed to be unlocked first before flashing a custom recovery??
At OP, when you flash TWRP via flasify, did you run into any problems??
Just curious really.

No issues. Used for few days
My Kernel is flashed via TWRP. I did backup too. No issues

I have issues with drivers for my windows. Have Samsung s2, Asus Zenfone 2 all installed so i use the root without pc method. I suspect my bootloader is unlocked as i can flash twrp.

Any master has any idea?

Gosh... Seems like no one has the answer. Need to check via PC.

You have to go to setting / about phone / 7 times on build number to unlock dev options/
Then settings / dev options
5th line is OEM unlock.
How is yours?

I manually did that before all the process in my 1st post.

I think this is to allow u to unlock, not unlocking the bootloader per se.

with adb/PC ? isn't it ?

check status of bootloader
first go to fastboot mode
first power off the device than Hold Volume Up while Power on the phone
than in adb type: fastboot oem device-info
there it should be flagged as true

My opx was unlocked, installed twrp, now.... Back to stock ROM and bootloader now is locked and i cannot unlocked,
What can i do?
Thx

I know but my laptop fails to install adb driver for oneplus x because i have too many phones installed. I uninstalled all drivers and tried installing oneplus x one but it fails.

Based on my understanding, once unlocked, its difficult to lock back. If its lock now, i doubt you are unlocked at 1st place. Pleaae correct me if i am wrong.

Yes. You are wrong.
I have twrp, so i unlocked, but now, i do not know how is locked, because i didnt, and when i try fastboot oem unlock.... No errors but nothing happend.
When i flashed twrp and try cm 13 i flashed, from twrp, the stock zip, 2.1.3.x
And now say that is locked, and.... Never unlocked
PD. never rooted, but when i flashed yesterday CM 12.1, when i restarted my opx to system from recovery do not ask for root from twrp ¿?, when i flashed stock zip, asked me to root from twrp when i restart to system ¿?

Stock recovery disabled via twrp, how to enable it?

Hi, I used fastboot to boot TWRP without flashing it (using fastboot boot twrp.img). Foolishly of me when exit TWRP I was asked to disabled Stock Recovery wich I swiped yes. Now my stock recovery is gone. How do I enable it via TWRP again without having to flash it? or what are my options? phone functionlity was not afected, just the stock recovery.
thanks.
imho you either use twrp OR stock recovery. so in my opinion youve done all right.
Download fastboot image.. extract boot.img from it. Boot in TWRP using fastboot .. then install->install image->boot.img(file you extracted)->flash->choose recovery, not boot when where to flash->done.
If it doesn't work then flash the whole fastboot image with mitool.

I ended up flashing the whole image beacuse it bricked when using the command "fastboot oem lock".
any idea why it bricked? i did flash a stock recovery before in order to lock it again.
After rooting it im interested in locking the bootloader again. Maybe I skipped a procedure in order to lock the bootloader again??
Right now im rooted, phone working, stock recovery (since I flashed a fastboot image with SP tools) and unlocked bootloader but I want to lock it without bricking it again.
thanks.

To lock bootloader again you must flash stock image via fastboot with "lock bootloader" bat file (it is in stock image flashtool zip). But why U need to lock bootloader? i dont see sense to do it.

Hi, thanks for the answer, I want to lock it because some features got disabled when unlocking the bootloader, like xiaomis "Find mi Device". I also read that having the bootloader unlocked may compromise your data security.

I accidentally relocked the phone by using the hstool method of flashing a full firmware.
it does relock the phone and required me to unlock it again using the fastboot oem unlock code

That's interesting. So all your data was wiped when you used the hstool?
Someone else said flashing firmware via dload method also relocks the bootloader.
hmm i'm not sure.
I'll explain the whole situation.
I had just unlocked the bootloader and installed magisk.
after installing magisk, I installed a few modules, one of which made my phone bootloop.
I managed to get back into fastboot mode, use hstool to select my firmware (224) along with the patched hisuite from funkyhuawei.
after my phone recovered, it seems to have been completely reset and locked.
*edit*
I guess I should also add, I've never installed TWRP on this phone, only patched the recovery_ramdis.img for Magisk

I used the external usb method (where you update using the code *#*#​2846579#*#*) and it 100% relock the phone.

and yes, the same code works to unlock it again. KEEP THE CODE SAFE!

You need an external usb-c drive with some firmware on it.
I initially used v187 from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/firmware-update-187-brings-oem-unlock-t3897301
Since then I downloaded a v206 which works over USB but I cannot recall where I got it from.
Note that you will loose all user data since the phone will be fully wiped.
Also this method requires a phone that is working, as in able to boot and access the dialer and menus.
If I find out where I got the v206 I will post it here as well.
I should also add, maybe it might work with a memory card as well... But this method requires an external source for the firmware since it formats the entire phone
@ xeroxide Thx for your help.
I Try this at the weekend.
If you need to relock your bootloader, this is the process:
Using eRecovery, restore your phone to stock
Once done, boot into recovery and RESET your phone (if you dont, it will not allow you to lock the bootloader)
Boot into fastboot mode (Holding Vol-DOWN, plug in usb cable) , and run the command
fastboot oem relock < bootloader unlock code>
the phone should now ask you that it will wipe your device, confirm,
Enjoy locked phone!

LG K61 (mt6765) root?

Hello guys,
I'm looking root options for this device.
Phone's bootloader is probably locked,since there is no fastboot mode.
I have patched boot.img made by magisk manager for A slot(don't know if need for B slot too?)And probably i need patched vbmeta which I don't have it.
I see there is in firmware kdz Efuse image too,I'm wonder if I format this partition in with special transsion tool,could it unlock bootloader?
Thanks forwardly for answers.

No, those drivers would help if there would be a fastboot mode.
But it just isn't available. It just boots to normal mode what ever you try, eh?
That is normal for most of the LG phones...
I'm looking for days on how to unlock bootloader on this phone,but the big problem is there is NO fastboot mode installed.
Is there anyway to workaround to unlock or to enable fastboot mode?
Is there any hidden method with buttons or something to enable bootloader?
This model chipset is mt6765 and what I have tried is I patched both boot.img from A and B slot and flashes back with Transsion program but aftet first start it triggers dm-verity.
I also tried formated Efuse,LAf_a and Laf_b and VBMeta partitions,flashed two boot.img patched and after that it is again trigger dm-verity,but HOW???
I'm having the same problem, i have an LG K51S, when i run
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
its reboots to the normal state, idk what to do, if you have any information please contact me.
Thanks

Adb reboot fastboot and you'll be in fastbootd which removes oem commands but I've been working with the stylo6 and K51 which I have the ability to unlock the bootloaders and flash magisk patched boot.img successfully to gain root access.

Hi, I have a LG K52 and they have the same chipset as LG K61,
I'm having trouble now trying to root and unlock it, can you please explain how you did ?
The only thing I've been able to so far is to get into fastboot and it's in a very very very dirty way, since adb reboot bootloader won't do the trick I had to type adb sideload radomimage.img to get into recovery menu and finally reach Fastboot, but nothing happens when I try fastboot oem unlock or fastboot flashing unlock or anything else
First the adb command is adb reboot fastboot and you can't unlock the bootloader in fastboot, the tool mtkclient from github will do that, i have a group that I sent you the link to in a message, there are instructions and support in there with now almost 200 members. We are helping unlock nearly every newer LG model and many others.

Question fastboot not entering

i wanted to flash a custom ROM. to unlock bootloader with adb with adb reboot recovery the phone just reboot. developer settings enabled. OEM USB debbuging too. but there is no advanced reboot option in settings. help it's my first time doing this.
I faced the same issue after OOS 12
What i did to fix this issue was i went back to Oos 11 using msm tool and then unlocked bootloader then flash custom rom.
If it is your first time doing all this maybe you will find it difficult to use msm tool so follow a good videk guide on youtube and then try this.

Question Relock Bootloader

Hi,
has anybody tried to relock the bootloader?!
i was a little over hasty and unlocked a device. I thought (yeah, i didnt checked it ...) if asus is offering a unlocker, it should be no big deal to lock it again.
But everything i found is for the ZF8, and all i found does not work on the ZF9.
It starts that there is no adb/sideload option in recovery nor have i found a custom recovery.
And every relock command in fastboot is not known by the fastboot environement of the ZF9...
So has anybody found a way?
thx in advance.
Matt
Has anyone found a method to close the bootloader again? I'm thinking of opening it but I'm worried that I won't find a method to close it if necessary.

If you haven't tried it, you can try it with:
-fastboot oem asus-back
-fastboot oem asus-csc_lk
-fastboot flashing lock
-fastboot flashing lock_critical
-fastboot oem lock
-fastboot oem lock_critical
-fastboot flash !frp-partition! default_key.bin
-fastboot oem asus-lock
No. Didnt work. 'Command not supported in default implemantation' All of these commands.
I did not try the *critical commands and the "frp partition". I had not time to read me in on that. And i dont want to brick the phone complete.
For what it's worth, fastboot oem asus-csc_lk worked for me. It also wiped the phone itself, I didn't have to do it manually.

Same, though I expected that since I rooted.
For any one wondering how to update, just take the firmware file from ASUS's site, place it in your phone's internal storage, then either wait a few seconds for the update notification to pop up or restart your phone (you should see it then). Follow the prompts from there.

This command works? Can someone give me a quick guide to close the bootloader? Right now I have twrp and magisk.

1. You can only re-lock the bootloader by going back to the stock firmware/recovery, losing twrp and magisk.
2. Re-locking the bootloader does not re-enable the OTA updates, but might help with Google Pay/SafetyNet attestation if that's broken for some reason.
3. This command works. Just flash the stock firmware and recovery, then do adb reboot bootloader and fastboot oem asus-csc_lk.

To flash the stock recovery is it enough to install the full zip of the stock ROM from twrp and reboot?

Yes, that should be enough.

ok, just one last question. If I have the latest version (2060.113) with TWRP, to leave everything stock what I have to flash is the zip downloaded from ASUS (also 2060.113: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/AI2202/ASUS_AI2202-33.0804.2060.113-kernel-src.tar.gz?model=Zenfone%209 ). I have seen that there are other ROMs called RAW, but I don't know exactly which one to install. I'm afraid that when installing the zip from that link something "non-stock" will remain installed and when closing the bootloader the smartphone won't boot.

I can't say much about this. I don't think it's going to be a problem, but of course you're doing it at your own risk.
