I got this Moto g84 with CalyxOS from ebay but had to update it to the 7.2.2.0 release. Now the thing is, the seller specifically said if I relock the bootloader the phone will be bricked. I used the web installer for the g84 model and left it unlocked, but that g84 installer says its safe and a different part of the CalyxOS site also says don't relock any Motorola phones. Do any of you guys know more about this or what the consequences of leaving it unlocked could be?
Just like other said about physically access, not gonna repeat that. Additionally, afaik there are pixels, brax me, FairPhones (via murena I.e. e/os) and some very custom made phones from sweden/Switzerland that allows relock (like someone said about the keys), I am not aware of any others. Personally I am on FairPhone with e/OS for this very reason. (As my sony's were unlocked while on lineage or e/os ). I wish EU passes a law that required all odm/oems to allow aosp (non gms) and their custom factory os like the pc market.... People should be able to own the hardware they paid for. Not ransomed by the odm/oem with their software keys. (Same goes for cars/bikes/ appliances).
