flash bootloader permission denied
Hello everyone. I am trying to relock the bootloader on my 7+ lake. I would also like to update to the newest software patch on the way because I had rooted before and as we know there is not yet a way to patch with OTA's with unlocked bootloaders.
I downloaded all required files (FastBootAddOnFiles.zip and the newest system img from lolinet) and tried to run the following from the command line at the mfastboot.exe: (i deleted the full path because it was very long)
Code:
mfastboot oem lock begin
...

I am cutting the remaining error messages they're all the same in each step
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
target max-sparse-size: 256MB
^CTerminate batch job (Y/N)? y
and I stopped it here because it was pointles to wait to load the installer and get errors
Does anyone have an idea how to proceed? The system otherwise boots normally But I succeded in erasing userdata during some of the previous attempts

. So thankfully no bricking so far (fingers crossed) In dev settings the option 'oem unlocking' is greyed out (says I should contact the carrier)
Also, if possible, I would like to get rid of the unlocked bootloader warning at boot and the verity disabled message during boot.
I thought of just erasing everything with TWRP and trying to flash the system anew but I don;t really know it that would help and I dont want to brick it. When I tried twrp backup it failed with createtarfork process error 255 and only proceeded when I excluded userdata so I'm not sure that's enough
Thank you for any suggestions
