How?

Thanks for the reply but how? Would I flash the stock image in twrp? Would that remove twrp after?

you should check the forum before you post and see the link was already posted

If you unlock with a code through Hauwei's official process they will have a record that you requested the code.
It's not a blanket "voided" warranty thing, since they specifically say the warranty is voided if the issue is a result of dev work (therefore not voiding the warranty out right from unlocking), BUT I assume how they evaluate that is up to them.

Also, just a FYI when the bootloader is re locked it states it as "relocked" in thr bootloader instead of Locked.

JTAG?

Could we flash a unlocked boot loader via jtag?

hrm.....
I wish to know this as well
I wonder if one person can do this, if they can then do a system dump and it would work for others?
Here's the latest on a JTAG solution:

That would be awesome provided we do not need to each send our phone in to get the bootloader unlocked.

that is most definitely what would be required unless you have jtag equipment available

Wouldn't one person be able to do it, do a system dump and then send it to the rest of us?

[Q] Rooting Question.

Is it possible to root the ultra without unlocking the bootloader? I'm not familiar with Sony, I haven't used a Sony phone since Xperia play. Or do I need to do the unlock method first?
Thanks in advance.

Read my friend read. There are multiple threads with the instructions on getting root with a locked bootloader. but life is so much easier with it unlocked.
[NUT]'s posts are a good place to start, and the guides at the top od this section

I'll come over to your house and we'll get it rooted. Just joking and I must say there is a lot of outdated info even in the stickies. It took me a lot longer than it should to figure out what was currently correct.

Help reverting to stock recovery and unroot without power button

So, i run on this problem - my power button just gave up on working. Everything else is working fine on my cellphone.
Thing is, i have it rooted, and i have twrp, i need to revert to stock so i can send it to warranty.
I'm running stock KIW-L21C432B140 with 5.1.1 version.
Any hints on how i can revert to stock firmware/recovery & unroot, without using the power button?
Thanks in advance
Just use "adb reboot recovery" to get to TWRP and restore a backup of stock. (Check the file depot thread if you need one)
Thanks @halomademeapc for your quick answer! So, restoring the full stock image will get me unrooted, stock recovery and obviously the stock firmware, is that right?

But the code to unlock the bootloader was provided by Huawei... that makes no sense

I didn't want to give ASUS a heads up on the issue, but I don't care anymore. You can use a "raw" firmware to relock the bootloader. But this will not restore Over The Air (OTA) updates.

Ok, thank you much for the info. I just ordered the ASUS ROG Phone yesterday, coming from the Note9. Just trying to brush up on the device and recovery options etc before it arrives. Also hoping I have made a huge mistake. :laugh:
What is a RAW firmware? Cause I always use whatever update they have online to flash mine.

Here is a WW raw firmware; others can be found with Google:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78160485&postcount=24
For anyone still interested, according to the flashall.cmd packaged with the RAW firmware the relevant command seems to be "fastboot oem asus-csc_lk" @Tesla74 as the cmd file actually checks if the Bootloader was unlocked and then relocks it I don't think this is a mistake or something unintentionally done by Asus but wanted this way
Kind regards
Have you sorted ? Managed to relock ?

Question Can i get the bootloader unlocked of sm-s906u

No! There is no root, bootloader unlock for United States Snapdragon. Np oem unlock toggle..can't downgrade firmware if bootloader increases.

100% can't, all Snapdragon devices are bootloader locked.
Locked not possible
Can I install 906U1 over 906U though? If I don't need root or something like that, just wanna get rid of the bloatware.
Did that with my s10+ a while ago.
To answer my own question, just did.
Used bifrost to download an appropriate U1 unlocked firmware and a patched odin to install it.
