Hi folks... Got a Huawei Y 2019 (Huawei Y6) and when I start it the display shows "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted".

 

I want to pass it to someone, but don't want the person to freak out. The device came like this for review. Any way to change it?

Probably just bootloader unlocked. You can relock the bootloader via fastboot if you have unlock code, like: fastboot oem relock <unlock code>

 

I'm not sure if there are any other easy methods to relock bootloader. Quick googling returns this - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-t3369797

Yeah sounds like bootloader is just unlocked, but this is the fastest way to relock bootloaders. I'm not sure how it works with Huawei devices but that command should just work without the unlock code. IIRC this is only when unlocking the bootloader.
