11w17, right? it's okay to unlock. just read the full guide on how to first. when you're sure you understand the steps, only then should you attempt to unlock it.
Just because i don't doesn't mean i can't.

Jeese..... Its about 30min to root .266 with Locked Booloader. Dont gramble all the time.
When someone find a simple method than you will have it. For now there isnt any other than flash .254 at first. Just do it and enjoy.

You can take backup of DRM keys. In case you need to use the warranty service, just restore the backup and your warranty stays valid.

So you can make your TA Backup once on rooted 4.1.2, then you are free to root your 4.3 and lock your bootloader with restoring TA..

Surely flashing any of the stock based ROMs that the guys have recommended is better than having a phone thats not working as well as it should.. and from my understanding if bootloader un-lock is not allowed then you can not unlock it...
Good luck !!
so i unlock it or not? give a me the right aswer pls

Just don't forget to back up your TA partition first!
You probably don't know what it is, so search for that first, before even attempting to unlock your bootloader.

If you go into service menu (*#*#7378423#*#*)
Configuration...
Rooting status...Bootloader unlock allowed...
If it says NO .. then you are unable to unlock it..
If yes then you`re good to go...but please do plenty of research before you attempt to unlock...could save you a lot of hassle ..
Once again, Good luck!!

He was asking for a clear answer while you gave him that already, hence the quote. Not really rocket science.

it is upto YOU whether you unlock the boot loader and put on a custom 4.4 rom, nobody can give you the answer
but if it says no on the dialer settings then it's impossible right? or is still possible?

I have a Note 8 SM-N9500 from Hong Kong.
I searched xda website and there is a way to unlock bootloader.
But I wonder if there is a guide to root SM-N9500?
Thank you very much!
if you read the guide for the bootloader im pretty sure it tells you what twrp to install... then from there just install magisk. Then you are rooted

One more question: Can I turn off FRP lock after signing in Google? otherwise, my phone will be locked.

Guys, have you tried something like using Google to search for "how to unlock n9500 bootloader"? I just did and the first result was a thread here at xda with all the info you need for that, magisk, etc. No need to ask in separate threads. It's a basic question, so just search for it and you'll have your answers.

Why you need root?
N950U has a LOCKED BOOTLOADER which CAN NOT be UNLOCKED!
If you are good in reading and searching xda then look up safestrap and Extreme Syndicate.

Your bootloader can NOT be UNLOCKED!
You need to have a good understanding on how to recover your phone when **** happens. The safestrap thread and the Extreme Syndicate thread is not the easiest but not hard either to do so you need to read and reread and comprehend what you read and follow instructions.
So read those threads and ask yourself do I understand the instructions/steps to do it and do I know how to recover my phone when it fails to a missed/failed step or bad file.
Search for any questions you have, it might be answered already, if not answered then ask specific questions on the steps you don't understand.
So read first and understand what you need to do so take your time before jumping in.
I haven't rooted my phone so I haven't done the 2 methods so can't help you, sorry.
