[Q] XT1058 Bootloader question.

I have a rooted moto x with a unlocked bootloader. Im using cyanogem atm, but i would like to go to stock again.
I plan on installing a firmware, and i have some questions.
1- Will i lose root?
2- Do i need to unlock the bootloader again?
Thanks in advance

1. Yes but losing root is never a concern with an unlocked bootloader
2. No. Once it's unlocked, it's unlocked until you relock it.
3. Make sure you flash the same firmware or newer.

all I know the Bootloader can not re unlock when you flash stock firmware or update OTA. So you dont need to relock BL after do anything ! Keep Bootloader Unlocked will help you custome your phone easier with root and more !

A certain thread called "[LOLLIPOP WARNING]Those Who Unlocked Via Sunshine or Purchasing a Code from China" says the following:
There is an Enable OEM Unlock option that is appearing in the Developer Options of the N6 and MX14 running 5.1 and if it is not checked, you cannot unlock your bootloader. If you unlocked via Sunshine or purchased a code for your device from the Chinese code seller, we do not know what is going to happen wrt this Enable OEM Unlock option for your phone if you upgrade to 5.1.
Until we do, it is safest to not upgrade and stay unlocked until 5.1 drops and the situation becomes clearer.

There hasn't been any update on the thread since the 5.1 release for the Moto X, so if I were you I would wait... Sunshine has also a support line, so you could also send a ticket and directly ask if they can unlock your bootloader. I'm sure they have seen this case!

you had an xt1058 right ? you updated to 5.1, did your bootloader get relocked ?

It didn't, but I had a Rogers xt1058 that was BL unlocked directly by Motorola and not by Sunshine...
According to Motorola's website, at&t's Moto X cannot be BL unlocked officially, so that's probably why we cannot know what will happen if you update to 5.1.

[QUESTION] do i need to ReLock my bootloader?

i for now just want to stick to Android 5.1.1 on my sprout8/srpout_b.
my mobile is rooted, with xposed. and my Device bootloader is Unlocked. so what is the benefit if LOCKED bootloader?
after rooting i have never ReLocked it, so was wonder what is the dangers of unlocked bootloader?

unlocked bootloader allows you to flash partition images via fastboot. I have not seen any issues with an unlocked bootloader. Also, update to marshmallow if you can,,,,,cause it has native move to SD if you didnt have it 5.1.1
