Help [Solved] Bricked device

Hello, my device is stuck in a bootloop, and can't get into recovery mode. The OEM is not unlocked in the Developer Settings, so trying to unlock it by using fastboot flashing unlock doesn't work. I don't know if there's anything I can do, but if there is I'd like to know

Basically:

-Stuck in a bootloop
-Can't access recovery mode
-The OEM is LOCKED
 
So I am going to assume powering on and on doesn't work. What about a factory reset? I know you can use the power and volume buttons to factory reset. I know this probably isn't you're first choice but in the end it might the quickest and easiest way to solve the problem.
 
If you can't access recovery (to perform a factory reset and/or potentially sideload an OTA image) and you can't unlock the bootloader then I'm afraid you're kind of out of options.

Being unable to access recovery generally suggests a hardware storage problem anyway. You'll need to have the phone repaired or replaced.
