Alright, so I ****ed up to the max
I wanted to install cyanogen mod, i unlocked the bootloader, and installed twrp, i then attempted to root because twrp was not able to backup or wipe, but i then realized that android was stuck in bootloop.
For some really stupid reason i decided to relock the bootloader.

So now, I have twrp that cant do anything, a locked bootloader, and a non working android rom, and i cant unlock the bootloader again because of the checkmark in developer options that I cannot get to because i cant even load it.

Someone please help

Ouch. I think you may be stuck. @rootSU is there anything else possible?

You can try to fastboot format userdata and cache but I doubt that will even work.

So i found a post on how to fix it, So now what i have is a bootlooped recovery, with an unlocked bootloader, making progress
EDIT: pushed cyanogenmod, got it to boot up, but i'm scared that it will happen again

Congratulations!! At least you don't have a brick. Do not re-lock your bootloader and you'll be OK.

You should really share what you did for the benefit of others though.

Yes, and let us all count this as a victory for the users of these forums.

I don't know why this makes me want to high five this guy, but I am stoked to hear about this.

Congratulations, and let it be known that the CyanogenMod rom you're flashing is unofficial, and nearly every dev on these forums whom builds from CM source has likely done exactly that which resides in that thread, only personally, so as to familiarize themselves with what is in the pipeline.

Is it great to have it? Yeah. Is it the work of DHacker? Nope.

I forgot to unlock oem and my bootloader is locked. But I can't boot up to anrdoid.
Sounds like the same issue.
How did you fix?

I used the above mentioned tactics, just keep clearing cache and user data, and other things until you get signs of recovery working or android
