You can look at this thread. Its have guides to unlock your bootloader and how to install TWRP also updating firmware. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-manual-updgrade-to-update-oreo-t3758286
But beware, unlocking bootloader will do a factory reset. Backup your data first using hisuite or twrp. Otherwise your data will gone forever.

Excuse me unknown. I have a op3T and I unlocked the bootloader a few days ago. Now I relock the bootloader to use Android pay and still can't use. Give the same error like I have unlock the bootloader. Any advice?
Did you wipe your device after re-locking the bootloader?

When I relock the bootloader, the phone makes a full wipe.
Do I must do wipe cache ?

Don't know??? Never try to relock it...so you have to flash stock rom and your BL will be automatically locked...

As far as I know if you are running a custom boot image you won't be able to relock the bootloader on nougat. It's a feature to prevent you soft-bricking your phone, because if you lock it and it detects unauthorised firmware it will refuse to boot.
To relock nougat, simply use the dload method to get a completely stock device and you will see that the bootloader is now relocked.
Hi everyone !
I really need help. i bought Huawei P9 with brand T-Mobile on Android 7.0 Nougat Version: EVA-L09C150B376. I haven`t and can`t found ROM file: EVA-L09C150B376 to flash it and have again LOCK BOOTLOADER. What should I do now to have LOCKED BOOTLOADER? THANKS !
I recently updated my P10 VTR L29 C432 from nougat to Oreo B360 via oreoupgrade script method as posted in forum but after update my bootloader seems to be locked again i wanted to root my phone via installing TWRP but it's not allowed by fastboot
Any solution or any solution to unlock bootloader without losing data !? I have too much files and apps on phone that i won't lose
I still have the same problem, created an thread many weeks ago and still don't have an reply. Seems like the only way is to make an backup with that backup tool in the settings (advanced->save&restore) or an backup with hisuite...
There's no way to unlock the bootloader without factory reset.
You can only do a backup with HiSuite or Huawei cloud - but notice: you need to backup DCIM manually!
Just a question, because you said, that you updated your phone with my oreoupgrade script:
Did you follow my guide exactly or did you do anything after the update progress was finished?
I need this information, because if this happens to more people, I need to take a look on the progress.

That's odd. All devices I testeds stayed unlocked after update.
The update won't lock the bootloader by itself - normally.
You're sure, that you didn't lock it manually?
Is only the FRP Lock active? You can unlock this by enabling the OEM Unlock in Developer Settings in the settings app.

Okay, that's bad. I'm sorry for this.
You need to unlock it with fastboot command and do a factory reset.
But don't know why the update process locked your phone while other stay unlocked.

WTF dude.....
You relocked the bootloader with TWRP? You are really lucky to not have a bricked phone.
Unfortunately for you, to replace twrp with stock recovery and get the phone back to stock state you'll have to unlock the bootloader again as we cant do anything with a locked bootloader.
*>Unlock your phone like you did before.
*>Make sure you have twrp installed.
*>Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
(just don't put image of twrp in the directory since you are aiming to go stock)

I've unlocked and relocked my BL about 10 times with no adverse effects that i can see apart from after relock BL displays 'relocked'. I've also loaded all 3 different versions of TWRP in between and about 4 gsi images. Now back to stock B136 with magisk 17.1 and BL unlocked again with safetynet passing and banking apps working plus google play showing 'certified'. Why does unlocking and rocking BL cause issue? apart from the obvious full wipe required. Isn't it just a software flag getting set and reset? It's a genuine question cause i really don't know.

Boy aren't you lucky. Some guys have a hard time with relocking bootloader.Maybe you are just lucky or they're doing something wrong.
But how did you flash twrp with a locked bootloader?
PS im also having the relocked status in fastboot. Do you think we can make it back to 'Locked'? Just in case of warranty issues.
Can EMUI10 be rooted with Magisk like EMUI9?
Will the Bootloader stay unlocked after doing the update or did they again integrate some things that make trouble?

EMUI 10 will lock the bootloader and can't be unlocked unless you downgrade to 9.1.
So there's no root if you can't unlock the bootloader.
