have you rooted yours yet?
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted}
Yes. Now I am on rooted global Android 11 firmware.
Flashing global rom will lock the bootloader again and I had to re-unlock the bootloader again.

Flash international ROM to Tmobile/Metro w/ locked bootloader
MAJOR UPDATE: Managed to flash Global stock rom to the MetroPCS variant Pros: Stock Oneplus and everything works Cons: OEM unlock is still greyed out Before you go any further: THERE IS NO ROOT FOR THIS DEVICE WITH A LOCKED BOOTLOADER (YET)...

Just download the patched global rom and follow steps from 8 to 13.

If you don't mind my asking. How did you flash the stock (OxygenOS?) image to your phone. I'm also SIM and bootloader unlocked.
Thanks!

I'm curious about how to unlock bootloader using official way on rn3p in case I've already unlocked it the unofficial way. I'm waiting for xiaomi to allow me to unlock my bootloader for 3 weeks now and nothing...so i want to unlock it using unofficial way, but I'm curious is it possible to unlock it officially after that?

I have done it the official way.
1. You get the SMS saying you can unlock.
2. Download the miunlock app.
3. Start the program and follow the instructions.
4. If you get stuck at 50% while unlocking try with China stable ROM.
Not everyone is successful in unlocking on global stable.
I couldn't and had to flash China ROM.
If you still have problems wait 2 days and then it should work.
No idea why but for most it works this way when all else fails.
It's easy enough just annoying that the process is not automated with getting the approval etc.

Got my SMS and did unlock, phone said unlocked but it is not, will not let me try again, says words to the effect that it does not need unlocking already done, what a stupid idea this was from xiaomi
I succesfully unlocked my bootloader lastweek via the unoffical way. I flashed a Xiaomi.eu Multi rom with my own language. I removed the emmc file.
Today I received a SMS from Xiaomi that my unlock request has been approved. Now I want to use the offical way to unlock the bootloader, does anyone know if I need to relock the bootloader?

Just reflash China/Global stable rom via miflash. It will relocked automatically. Then proceed to unlocking using China Developer ROM.

Are you sure about this? Won't flashing stock ROM on an unofficially unlocked bootloader brick the device? Or the brick happens only if you flash MIUI ROMs through TWRP?

Brick only happens when you flash miui rom with twrp.
If you flash it using miflash with proper procedure, it will work as I have tested and done it before.

Lets say I unlock it the official way,and later I flash Miui using miflash does it lock bootloader again or no( which would be very weird to me if it does). It's all to confusing, I'm android user 4 years now but first time Xiaomi user and this is all weird to me. Thanks

I'm not sure about that. But i think it won't relocked back as you need to use some fastboot commands to relock the bootloader again. I might be wrong though.
But i suggest you to flash miui rom using the newly modified twrp(which will not require you to modify/flash boot.img) If AND ONLY If you unlock your bootloader OFFICIALLY.
Hello everyone
i want to flash the new beta version with updater app on my phone and i'm in global stabel 8.0.1.0. Did i need to unlock my bootloader ? because in miui forum didn't mentioned that i really need to do it.

If you are flashing custom Rom and upgrading from Lollipop to Marshmallow than your bootloader will get locked again, but some custom Rom might not relock the bootloader. official OTA update will not lock Bootloader, but don't worry if your bootloader gets locked you can easily unlock it using unlocker tool within few minutes. I've flashed many Rom which locked my bootloader but everytime I've unlocked it using unlocker tool. we don't have to get permission for unlocking and all other stuffs again its quite easy after first unlock. Hope it helps you.

You have to check it manually by booting to fastboot mode and typing following command
Fastboot devices
Fastboot oem device-info
If your bootloader is unlocked than it will show unlocked status true & if it is locked than the status will be false.

Can't it be checked by Mi Unlock Status in developer options (if I am running stock rom)?
You can do that only in developer ROM not in stable.
Hello there. I just updated 9.0, but thanks in advance if I have a chance to unlock bootloader and root.

Well you updated for nothing.
Now you have to temporarily downgrade back to early Oreo. After bootloader unlock, then you can update back to Pie.
Root Sticky everyone should read:
ROOT YOUR V30!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/root-v30-t3927154
Free advice: NEVER upgrade until you know root requisites. In this case you can still do the TEMPORARY downgrade back to Oreo for bootloader unlock with WTF exploit. But what if you couldn't?
You should check before updating to new OS, not after.

Same TWRP for Pie as for Oreo. V30 TWRP dev says it's stable and we're sticking with it.
See WTF instructions for bootloader unlock and root.
Read the Root Sticky, linked above. It has link for WTF bootloader unlock.
What variant do you have? Full Pie KDZ has been released for several variants, but others still waiting.
