Question Unlock bootloader failes with 'remote failure' - Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S

I have a new Moto G100. I would like to root the phone using Magisk. In order to be able to do that I used the procedure to get an unlock key from Motorola. When boot into the bootloader and try to send the key to the phone using
fastboot oem unlock <key>
I get the following response:
...
(bootloader) Check 'OEM unlocking' in Android Settings > Developer
(bootloader) Options
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.060s
Developer settings are enabled. When I go to Android Settings > Developer and check 'OEM unlocking', the setting is grayed out. It looks like the setting is set to On.
The phone is eligible for unlocking according to the information from Motorola (cid variable is 0032).
Why is the unlock command failing? What can I do to fix it?

You need to connect to the internet, and wait 3 days or so, till oem unlocking is not grey
Edit does it look like this?

Do this and update to latest OTA

After about 72 hours the option was magically enabled.

[Q] Phone bricked and fastboot connected but fails every time to transfer anything

My Nexus S is stuck on the google screen.
I have downloaded the drivers for Android ADB and have gotten fastboot talking to the device but for some reason ADB doesn't talk to the device (though it does with my HTC HD2).
The phone is still locked and has no custom bootloader on it.
I can list devices attached with Fastboot and it shows the Nexus's serial number but when I try to do "Fastboot oem unlock" it comes on the phones screen to unlock the bootloader and when I select yes it hangs there and cmd says:
Code:
...
FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))
finished. total time: 0.582s
I am running windows 7 64bit.
The only difference I notice from the tutorials and mine is that the driver says
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Instead of Samsung Android Device.
I had to install the drivers manually as PDAnet couldn't pick up the device and I found the drivers on one of the many topics on this.
Any idea's would be much appreciated, I have been trying to fix this for over a week

If fastboot recognises your phone, have you tried flashing latest cwm.img recovery through it? (fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img) from your sdk tools folder? It could be that you never had USB debugging ticked in settings!
I have tried flashing the latest recovery .img to it but it comes up with the exact same error.
I don't think USB debugging was enabled before it bricked. I have no idea where to do from here as the phone was bought second hand so no warranty.

[Q] How can I fix this mytouch4g

Ok, so when I turn on the phone, it gets stuck on the HTC screen logo forever. With the volume down and power button, I'm able to get into hboot/hboot usb plug when connected to the computer. The recovery, factory reset, image crc options don't work. In my linux computer, when I type fastboot devices, I'm able to get serial number of the phone. The picture links below summarize my current state

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The commands that I've tried are below.
(command): /fastboot devices [output] SH******** fastboot -- (note: here I did get my serial number but I know better than to post it here.
(command): ./fastboot oem rebootRUU [output]... FAILED (status malformed (1 bytes))
(command): ./fastboot flash zip PD15IMG.zip [output]: sending 'zip' (322693 KB)... FAILED (status malformed (1 bytes))
Tools in hand: android-sdk-linux, linux mint, PD15IMG.zip and phone
note: I also tried all of the above commands on windows 7 home premium 64 bit with adb installed and got the same error messages from fastboot. I tried the official htc bootloader unlocker but kept getting that error: 120 battery less than 30%.. although my battery is fully charged and that stopped the tool from unlocking the boot loader.
I read somewhere If i find the orginal stock recovery image, I might get out of this but I cannot find it anywhere yet.
Just find the stock RUU and you can revert it back to life
When you cant find it google it and for sure you will get the RUU

Did you tick the OEM unlock option in Developer options? If not, go to Settings, About Phone, tap Build Number 7 times. Developer options will appear in Settings. Tick OEM unlock.

Messing with the Radioband. Now my XPERIA M4 Aqua is just like useless brick

Hi friends, i am a new member here
First let me explain my problem
It has been couple weeks since i accessed the *#*#4636#*#* menu on my device and my curiousity kicked in and led my device to a total disaster. I have stupidly accessed the radioband option and stupidly tap the USA Band. Now my device can't make nor receive a call, message, and even access the MMI Code provided by my network provider. It works only on 4G/LTE network, and the network just disappears everytime i switch it to 3G network. Now my XPeria is just like a brick with "accessing 4G internet" ability
Yesterday i found a solution in a forum that requires me to debug my device from pc. I think this method is the solution because lot of user reply and say that this worked on their device so i decided to follow it too. I have followed the instructions, install the ADB in my PC and the fastboot and ****s. It alsosaid that i have to type these following commands in the command prompt i've opened in the adb folder
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
I have done this but i stuck in step 2 and 3 (the erase modemst). Everytime i type the command, it appears like (picture included)
fastboot erase modemst1
erasing 'modemst'.....

Can somebody please help me with this? How to make the command success. Or do you have another method to fix my radioband problem?
Thanks a lot beforehand
