Number of bootloader unlocks

[botboy444]

Is there a maximum number of times you can unlock and relock the bootloader? I think I read somewhere you can only unlock it once (officially anyway)

I sure hope that isn't the case because I plan on chucking a custom rom on when there's more "custom stock" ROMs, no real point rn cuz no trigger or RGB support lol

He was probably refering to this app probably 😄

And as for your question you can only unlock once using asus's unlock tool "unofficially"

To my knowledge there exist a unofficial tool too but I dunno anything about it

But I don't see the point of relocking though as unlocking means getting black listed on asus's server so relocking won't do any good imo as they already know/can check device status on their servers

One good thing is that Asus phones retain widevine L1 even after unlocking

yeah ive got that, needs root but looks pretty awesome! 😄

and i had to re-lock my boot loader because i couldnt get safetynet to pass, no matter what i did

but as someone thats always rooted their phone, the rog3 legit doesnt need to be rooted to enjoy it

Yep you pretty much get everything in stock
I only see the reason to try new roms but again that comes at a cost with no trigger support etc
But iirc omni rom developer managed to get armory crate on omni rom I dunno how good the port is though
