Noob question. Need help please. Does the bootloader unlock image check firmware? - Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
After taking my ZUK out of cold storage, decided to unlock the bootloader. The img file that I received was when the firmware was Indian 2.5. Now I am on 4.0.199 ST.
Will I be able to unlock the bootloader using the image obtained earlier or will I need to go back to the stock firmware 2.5 when I obtained the img?
Advice appreciated. Thanks!

I have a ZE601KL Z011D zenfone as well, but I am stuck with build number LRX22G.CN_user_1.13.40.661_20151103
Android version: 5.0.2, and there is no Update button in the Settings page of my phone. Is there a way I could upgrade my phone manually?
Thank you,
George

On which rom you are?
If its some emui just search somewhere in here for firmware finder tutorial i used it to update to 380 (i had root and unlocked bootloader) and if you are on cm you shoud have backups (atleest if you did everything like all tutorials said) and just restore back if you don't know search
If you are on any other rom look up post from which you flashed it... Usually there is written how to get back
go to huaweis support site and find your phone. under downloads they have stock rollback package and stock firmware. download both and you will find a guide inside the downloads. then you're back to stock
Hi,
Right now i am on stock EMUI 5.0. My version is VNS-L21C432B370 but i have battery problems which i think B380 can solve but since i am rooted and with unlocked bootloader i cant OTA update.
I think getting the VNS-L21C432B380 full ROM i can update with 3 buttons method but i cant seem to find that ROM nowhere.
Can someone help?
Thank you
Hey,
I have the VNS-L21C432B380 full rom (stock) with an unlocked bootloader and unrooted. If there is a way to backup it without unlocking b/l and rooting, PM me and I'll get you sorted. Cheers!

Hi guys I have the retus Moto g5 plus
And I'm on NPNS25.137.35-35
I flashed TWRP and a few roms but would like to return to stock and Relock the boot loader the problem is I have reflashed the stock rom with NPNS25.137.35-35

Can anyone help or give me a step by step with commands to try ? Am I screwed because I installed TWRP ? I can learn to live with unlocked bootloader if I must but the OCD in me wants to lock it lol

You cannot downgrade any stock ROM. Here in your built number extra S stands security patch and it not 35-35 its 35-5 (5 Indicated May security patch). If you want to come back on stock ROM with OTA updates then First install any Custom ROM on your device then Flash with Stock ROM Brazilian NPN25.137.15 (Indian Variant) Download from Firmware site and flash it using "fastboot oem lock" commands. Search for Installation of Custom Rom you will get it.
