how to Root with locked bootloader
Hi, Is it possible to root on a locked bootloader. I feel its risky to unlock bootloader because we definitely loose warranty where as on locked bootloader its possible to regain warranty after full unroot.

When you relock the bootloader you will get back your warranty, so no worries

effects after unlocking bootloader canvas a1
After unlocking bootloader, whats the significant loss? Like for example, after unlocking bootloader of xperia i lost my DRM keys and then after even relocking i couldn't get them back so some Sony apps like walkman, track id were not working.
Is there anything same here on Android one also.?

And also what about the OTA from Google? After unlocking bootloader, Will I get the same we get on locked bootloader?

Absolutely right. All "tutorials" with unlocking bootloader, formatting userdata, installing custom recovery are trash. Especially because we are going to get L update soon and custom ROMs aren't going to be the priority for a lot of people.

If you have no idea what you're talking about, why accuse someone with some idea?

Quick thing guys... Correct me if i am wrong.
When you root the device, changes are done to system and (i think) now Google as a second level checks if there are changes done at the system. If that's the case, will we get L push update with locked default bootloader and a rooted device?
Thanks.

Unlocking bootloader here will wipe all the data stock in the phone. AFAIK there is no loss over here.
You will need the stock recovery to flash the OTA update

unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery then flash the latest supersu.zip. As simple as that
htcdev.com/bootloader

Its the same procedure to unlock a locked or re-locked bootloader. The only difference between locked and relocked is that relocked mean your phone was unlocked at least once then locked back using the "fastboot oem lock" command. So go ahead and follow the instructions from htcdev.com/bootloader (submit your token then wait for your unlock code and flash it).

As @alray said, unlock procedure is the same for "locked" and "relocked". That means that your files WILL be erased when you unlock your bootloader, so backup everything you don't want to loose

Will CF-Root Wipe My Data?

I see mixed info about this. I'm on stock 6.0.1 with the bootloader unlocked. If I root using CF-root, will my user data get wiped?
The CF-root screen says it will. The documentation says it will only if the phone is not OEM unlocked yet. Another online source said only if the data is encrypted.
If it will, how do I make a complete system backup before using CF-root? I don't want to try something until I have a backup.

when you unlock your bootloader, itll wipe your whole phone, including your storage. and that is normal, and has been like that since the very beginning.

complete backup.. with adb or with root. non-root you can backup some stuff, or backup with adb.

Thanks, but I have already unlocked my bootloader. My question is that with an unlocked bootloader, will it still wipe my data? Thanks!

it shouldnt. but thats just an "app", if it will or not i dont know. if you root your phone properly, the right way, it wont. by the right way, i mean fastboot flash twrp recovery, then flash supersu with twrp recovery and boot up. it takes about two minutes.. do you need something else to do it for you, really?

[Q]Stuff to do before unlocking bootloader/root

So I just got My OnePlus 3T and like most, would like it rooted! I have had experience with rooting and unlocking bootloader, but since My earlier devices were by Sony, there is a lot of difference. In Sony devices, there was no need to unlock bootloader to root, but it seems that for rooting 3T, I need to unlock bootloader. Even that doesn't seem difficult since there is this great guide with a toolkit. But My concern is that do I need to backup any partition before I unlock bootloader? Like in Sony we had a TA partition, which could be backed up before unlocking bootloader and would get wiped after unlocking bootloader. This is just for keeping it as backup and restore it to device if I decide to lock bootloader again. Also, will I loose anything if I unlock bootloader? Such as anything specific to OEM or camera functionality?

Nope. On OP devices there's no permanent penalty for unlocking. If you ever want to go back, you can re-lock the bootloader. But: unlocking and locking will wipe your phone. So you can't carry over root to a locked bootloader.

Okay, that helps! So to return back to locked bootloader everything would need to be like stock(no root, custom recovery etc.)
I had read somewhere about EFS backup and that it is related to IMEI number of the phone. This need to be done before or after the rooting process?
Also, would I need to disable encryption (as it is seen enabled in settings) and remove the fingerprint lock option before unlocking bootloader?
And just to be clear, I'm going to do following steps in the sequence to flash TWRP and root, Please let Me know if it is correct:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP.
3. Flash SuperUser
all this with the help of ToolKit of OnePlus 3T. I don't need to take backup as the phone is new.
Also, I will be flashing the phh SuperUser for support with Magisk as mentioned here.

Hey, do you guys know if you can get official OTAs if you have TWRP installed?

Former Z2 user here @Mirhawk
I did the advice backup as a precaution. Then did your 1,2,3 steps. May I ask, why Magisk? Is Android Pay currently working with stock ROM + Root + unlocked bootloader?

AFAIK stock recovery is required. Otherwise install zip manually via downloads.oneplus.net

I'm not interested in Android Pay, as it doesn't work in My country, It is Pokemon Go I wanted, but I guess it doesn't work. Thanks for the infor though! It was a lot simple in Sony!

No, because you need root to use Xposed wich requires TWRP ergo an unlocked bootloader.

Yes but how are you going to flash it? With stock recovery its not possible. Btw locking a bootloader when you plan to root or use mods is NEVER a good idea, besides that in the case of OnePlus it doesn`t void warranty so it would be unwise to not unlock or relock the bootloader.

If your device gets bricked while your bootloader is locked, you're going to get screwed. The most you can hope for is a complete phone reformat through one of the unbrick guides
