I'm not sure if this is going to end up as a fix or a cautionary tale, but here goes.
Was looking to root my g4, so I successfully unlocked the bootloader & installed TWRP using this method: http://ift.tt/2bpYffi
Things were going pretty good there, but when I tried to install the SU image through TWRP, the phone wouldn't boot.
Naturally, I didn't do a backup of the stock state of the phone (BECAUSE I'M AN IDIOT!) so I figured, what the hell, might as well install cyanogen mod, and see what that's all about. There's a cyanogenmod beta for the G4+. It went on smooth through the TWRP installer and was behaving ok, but wouldn't see the SIM. I check the IMEI number and the phone does not have a value set, just blank space.
I then tried to re flash stock firmware on the phone, thinking that might restore the IMEI.
It was a bear to get on there, but I was pretty proud of myself when it booted.
Trouble is: still no IMEI number. Also no wifi and it can't see the SIM card (probably because no IMEI number).
So, I figured I'd go back to the cyanogenmod, and see if I could somehow trick it into an IMEI number, BUT! re-loading the firmware re-locked the bootloader.
I went through the unlock process at motorola again, but this time she won't unlock. The console is throwing me
.
So, from here, I don't know where to go. Try re-flashing cyanogenmod on it manually I guess, but I don't know if that will work with the bootloader perpetually locked.
Can anyone help me sort this out?
Please?
