If I understand you correctly, you want to know if you flash another rom
will you loose unlock.
The answer is NO, you won't loose unlock on the phone.
So flash away, you are safe.

No. A custom ROM wouldn't lock or unlock the phone. It can be unlocked for any SIM and still be stock firmware, it can also be unlocked for any SIM and have a custom rom.
The two things are completely different.
Hope this helps.
You can do whatever you want to any rom, and that won't affect anything that makes it unlocked
thx for replying,
so meaning, currently the phone is unlocked, and i downgrade to RC29
so it wont be locked again ?
because need to downgrade to root-ed the firmware....
is this mean, downgrade my unlocked phone firmware to RC29
in the process, it will not reset my phone from unlock back to lock status ??
if it will not make my phone locked back again during the process
and i success downgrade to RC29 i can gain root access, then i can update to custom firmware
so another question, in the upgrading process (flasing to custom firmware or cupcake 1.5) will it set back from unlock to locked ??
sorry for my bad english
appreciate for replying, i need to know before i done anything
in the process,
Hi. I also have an unlocked phone. It was unlocked prior I downgraded it, and flashed new custom roms, and it is still unlocked. As the others said no need to worry, if i'm right the locking thing is in deeper level. Of course everything you do with your phone is your responsibility.

Can T-mobile still unlock the phone after I rooted it or would they know that I put a custom rom on it??

Yes, you can still unlock it through T-Mo. No one at T-Mo needs to have physical access to your phone, they can give you an unlock code over the phone.

One has nothing to do with the other. ROMs have nothing to do with the SIM cards and SIM cards have nothing to do with ROMs. T-Mobile isn't going to come to your house and spank you for having a custom ROM because they "know"

If want to keep bootloader lock..I would go to the alternate root that is posted.. it can root frf91 and amon-ra recovery and any rom ... bootloader staying lock keeps warranty intact

If I dont unlock the bootloader what can I not do?
you can root, and flash custom recovery and custom ROM.. jus as the same as unlockin the bootloader, only thing i know you can do with a locked bootloader is fastboot stuff but everything else would be the same... jus warranty stays on phone wiht lock bootloader
this is the alternate way i was talking about

If warranty doesnt matter then do it the first and original way do oem unlock, fastboot flash recovery, do nandroid back up then wipe and flash rom...

there is, but only if you never done a ota from ics to jb!!
if you used a fastboot to get jb or a custom rom you might getthe unlocked bootloader logo away.
but its risky, maybe you brick ur phone. so better dont try it.
i just want to say its possibke!
i hqve the locked logo on jb with an unlocked bootloader

I think the most important acronym in the firmware. EU. Flashing the RKBEUXM should therefore not be a problem. Even without the bootloader unlock. OR only means that provider-specific functions are built in. If you don't know them or are unimportant, the XM works just as well.

If you had to unlock the bootloader to flash the XM, I wouldn't relock again. That would surely lead to a brick.

Hello! Can you tell me what method you used to do it? I have a Mi 11 lite 5G, the ROM that came from the factory was a Vodafone EU and I changed it for a Global EU ROM, specifically this one: renoir_eea_global_images_V12.0.8.0.RKIEUXM, but in the process with My Flash Tool the bootloader had to be open, now I have this ROM working perfectly, but I want to close the bootloader to use Google Pay etc. So I am very interested in your method to achieve it.

Don't relock your bootloader with EU rom. Your chinese phone will be bricked.
