Pro1X - Lock Bootloader, but now, cannot Unlock it anymore


Recommended Posts

Hi Community,

I've successfully flashed the official Lineage OS (LOS) (with Gapps) for the Pro1X. But, in an attempt to use banking apps, I was hoping that Locking the Bootloader may help "trick" the Banking Apps to allow me use in on LOS. 

Sadly... it does not allow me to go back to Unlock mode.

I am now stuck in a loop... cannot boot into my LOS. 

Please help! Thanks!

I think this is your best hope...

Note. I've never done this myself. 

As you've learned the hard way, you cannot OEM lock the bootloader on anything but the OEM stock. If you  want a locked bootloader, you will have to stay on stock Android.

Hi Community, 

I tried using this method. Unfortunately, it does not seems to work. 

Is this the end for my Pro1x?

Or is there still some hope?

Dear Community, 

I wish to announce that the solution in the provided link does indeed work! It solved my accidental lock on my Lineage OS Bootloader for my Pro1X, by clean install everything. 

I would like to highlight that you may need to DISABLE DRIVER SIGNATURE ENFORCEMENT on your Windows Machine. This was the one headache I had throughout the process... didn't realise I needed to disable driver inforcement. Silly me!

Thank you community for your kind support! 

Cheers!

Hey Forum,

I'm going to repeat what I posted on the "state of production and delivery" thread here, because I believe it's more on-topic. Has anybody experienced the same? I can't unlock the bootloader on my recently received Pro1X so that I can install a better camera app and take full advantage of LineageOS. Any help appreciated!

"I have finally taken possession of my ordered Pro1X.

I am from Brazil but had it delivered to a friend in the US to avoid tariffs. This was last August 2024 so none of the new US tariffs were in force.

I finally came to his house yesterday and opened the box ( he wouldn't dare opening it before despite all my insistence ). I am disappointed to say I received a used phone with a fading label on the back, scratch marks on the aluminium frame, with what looks like a brand new screen and a used cable. It's evident to me it was a return or, worse, a service phone delivered to the wrong person.

It didn't boot, all I got was the bootloader. Fastboot flashing unlock did not work either.

I then flashed the non-GMS EDL file using the Linux qdl tool as described here, and got the phone to boot.

Now I'm trying to install LineageOS but am stuck at the first step -- unlocking the bootloader.


fastboot flashing unlock

just returns an error every time:


FAILED (remote: 'Flashing Unlock is not allowed
')

Perhaps I'm missing something in the process. Hope somebody can point me to the right instructions?"
