Hey, I am not able to unlock the bootloader of the Moto g4 plus. The cid is 0x0000. I am on stock nougat 7.0 with the April 2018 security patch. If I need to send more info, feel free to ask.

Yes I have followed that guide, I have tried it multiple times
Where in the process is your unlocking attempt failing? Is it getting the unlock code from your device or requesting the code from Motorola?

Can we see your getvar info?
1) reboot your device to the bootloader. Connect your device to your computer via USB.
2) open an ADB terminal. In the ADB terminal, type 'fastboot getvar all' without the quotes. Press enter. You should get a list of variables about your device.
3) please post or upload the details here, you may wish to omit your IMEI.

Hmm, thanks for that - looks like there's an issue with your device - looking at the getvar info, there's no carrier listed ((bootloader) ro.carrier: unknown ). What software channel is listed on your device under Settings>About Phone?

You may wish to submit the unlock data information and getvar info (including IMEI) to the official Motorola forums: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/MOTOROLA-Android-Developer/Bootloader-Unlock-Problems/td-p/3222809 Please follow the instructions on that thread, and provide all the information they request. Hopefully they can generate an unlock code for you, but please bear in mind they request at least 2 business days once the request is forwarded.

My software channel is reteu, it can Be true that I don't have a carrier, I bought this device stand alone and later put the Sim in. I will see what they can do at the official forums

In that case, that entry in the getvar info should show up as reteu, regardless of if you bought the device standalone. For example, my device was bought direct from Motorola, no phone carrier involved and it reports retgb as the carrier.

I'd consult the Motorola forum thread on the issue, they may be able to generate a code for you or ask you to submit your device for service.
