I have just received the information of an OTA small update (183 Mb) up to B188 and I was wondering if after update I still have root or if I have to reroot the phone and if there are problem becuase of the unlocked bootloader.
Some people say that with unlocked bootloader OTA is not possible other say that there are no problem.
TIA
Edit: I tried to do the update but it always stuck

Hi, actually i have the b133 with bootloader unlocked and root, today i've received the notification trough updater,the b183 update, from android 5.0.0 to 5.0.1.
Now i have a question, in order to successfully install the update i have to remove the root and update?
I unlocked my Moto G5 Plus not that long ago and soft bricked it trying to install TWRP. I decided to try to relock the bootloader and was successful. My device has no signs of being unlocked and Google Play says I'm certified and I pass SafetyNet. Will I be able to get future OTA updates?
Provided you flashed and re-locked with the correct stock ROM for your region/device, you should be okay to receive OTA updates. A locked or unlocked bootloader doesn't appear to matter for receiving OTA updates, but having the expected build for your device does appear to matter.
Well, safe to say my device has been restored. Just took an OTA and updated with no issues.

Do you locked bootloader? With unlocked bootloader you cant update via OTA
Hi, I've rooted my P SMART with Magisk (bootloader unlocked, TWRP and so on...). After rooting, OTA updates were unavailable as expected. A few days ago, without any "hack" by my side, I got a notification about a new OTA update available.
It's a full update (2.37gb)... my question is: what will happen if I execute the update? It seems a complete reinstall of the OS, I think I'll lose my data... By the way, Magisk will be removed? Or, worse, Bootloader can be relocked?
Apparently every OTA update relocks the bootloader. I unlocked my bootloader shortly after I bought the phone, then got some updates, and now when I wanted to try the new Magisk, my bootloader is locked. Is there any way to avoid this? Otherwise I have to wipe my phone after every OTA if I want to be unlocked and have the latest security updates. Thanks.
