Will the bootloader unlock code change when installing/restoring roms? - Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers

Hi
Since it now costs money to unlock the bootloader, the last thing I'd like to do is to request multiple unlock codes.
I'm wondering if the code can change, forcing me to buy the service again?
I've heard of the bootloader to lock again when restoring the phone using huawei official recovery but will the old code work again?
Thanks /a

No,there is a certain firmware that can lock the bootloader at a downgrade,if it happens, it will be locked again.
What firmware that was I do not know exactly but I believe B017.
But normally the bootloader stays open.
You have the Unlockcode to unlock it again

[Guide] How to unlock FRP for free

I flashed a B3XX ROM and got a locked FRP. Luckily, I had saved the bootloader unlock code. Here is what I did to get both unlocked again. ATTENTION: MAY WIPE ALL YOUR DATA.
1) Boot into ROM
2) Enable developer settings
3) Toggle OEM Unlock in Dev Settings
Note: if it asks for a password, try your screen unlock. If this doesn't work, go to Security settings, change your password and now try OEM Unlock with the new password. The latter worked for me
4) Now reboot to fastboot. You should see FRP Unlocked.
5) Unlock bootloader again.
I'm not sure this will work for all configs or anything. This is just what worked for me. I was able to flash TWRP after this.

Should kept your bootloader code in your computer or cloud. Anyway you can live chat with huawei customer support or email to them. They might help you.

Bootloop & OEM Locked - How to get Product ID?

Bootlooping for a week. tried freezing, heating, sideloading OTA, resetting cache.
Now trying to obtain unlock password from https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/detail. but I cant get the product ID.
There are generators around but I don't see the 6p model number (H1512).
Anything?
Have you tried the barcode option in the bootloader?
Perhaps try calling Huawei's customer support since they deal with this commonly.

Carrier unlock code? Presumably it is already carrier unlocked (Bahrain). There is no such thing as a bootloader unlock code. You said "cache resetting". What about factory reset? If heating /freezing your phone won't allow you to boot and allow usb debugging/oem unlock, you are pretty much dead in the water.

Problems with WiFi and bootloader.

Hello guys. Ihave some questions about my Huawei P8 Lite:
1)Lock bootloader: I've read that if i give command
HTML:
fastboot OEM relock
the bootloader ststus is "relocked" is this true? If yes, how can i make it "locked"?
2)I 'd like to give the phone to an assistance center to fix the WiFi problems (WiFi and hotspot don't work) but i have some issues: the bootloader is unlocked but i haven't do it, i've used kingroot that unlocked it so i don't have the code for relocking (but i can still obtain it)... Even if the bootloader is unlocked, it gives error when flashing every file (recovery, etc...) so i don't think is unlocked
So... if i give the phone to assistance center, will they accept it even if is unlocked?
Should i relock the bootloader?
How much will it cost?
I 'd like to use the door-to-door service (I haven't used this yet)
How to make bootloader status "locked" and not "relocked"?
Thanx for replyes :fingers-crossed:

Relocking bootloader

Hello,
I unlocked my bootloader with an unlock code obtain from Huawei.
I want to relock it now to install ota updates and rid myself of the boot warning screen.
Huawei no longer provide the codes and I can find mine. I've contacted them but they say the cannot provide it.
Is there any other way to relock it?
Thanks.
Reinstall with service ROM. It makes it "locked", instead of "relocked" and it doesn't matter if the phone is unlocked or not.
Thanks,
Service rom? Is that an official rom?
It's OK I found it. Didn't really want to wipe everything but need must I suppose.
Thanks.
You can obtain unlock code via HCU Client or DC Unlocker but this is a PAID service (3-4 EURO).
If you want to relock the phone just install Service ROMs and your phone will be as a factory new ;p

Google Unlocked Pixel 3a on Verizon

Hi all. I have been searching high and low for information on this specific question:
Will activating an unlocked Pixel 3a on Verizon disable the OEM Unlock and bootloader unlock capability?
I got a Verizon variant before I realized that there was not way to unlock the bootloader. Bummer. So, I returned it for an Unlocked version from Google, which I just received tonight. I breezed through the setup (without the SIM card) and noticed that OEM Unlock was disabled stating I needed to connect to the internet. So, I enabled WiFi and the OEM Unlock was then available. It would seem that I an now able to follow the unlocking procedure.
My goal is to unlock the bootloader and root, but do I have to do it immediately? My concern is that activating the phone with my Verizon SIM could:
1) Prevent unlocking the bootloader in the future if I don't unlock it before I activate with SIM (research seems to indicate that factory resets will undo disabling OEM Unlock if this can happen if I understand correctly)
2) Re-lock an unlocked bootloader - maybe this is not even possible?
I don't want to mess this up. All the info I am finding are discussions related to trying to unlock a Verizon variant and I cannot find good info on what happens to bootloader unlocking options on unlocked phones that are activated on Verizon. The only reason I may want to delay this process is because I dont have a lot of time at the moment and would rather not rush the bootloader unlock and root process. However, my HTC 10 is in bad shape and need a phone to get through the holidays. I was hoping that I could activate it on Verizon now, use it with its locked bootloader for a few weeks, and when things cool down after the holidays, implement the bootloader unlock and root.
If that is not advisable, what about unlocking the bootloader immediately (doesn't seem too hard and I have used ADB before), and activating without root. Then root later? Any possibility of concern #2?
Can OTA's re-lock a bootloader and prevent future unlocking?
I appreciate anyone's incite, experience, or links to the needed information for clearing this up. Thanks you!
I would advise you to unlock the bootloader asap. If you wait it will be a pain later because unlocking causes loss of data. If you don't care about that, wait as long as you like.
As far as Verizon is concerned, if the phone is unlocked, I don't see how they could possibly lock the bootloader. They may restrict your services but they can't touch the lock status of a device you purchased.
