Yes it will.
If it's unlocked now it will remain unlocked after firmware update.

Having an unlocked bootloader is fine, not having the correct recovery or the stock ROM is what causes it not to work.
I have an unlocked bootloader and have just updated using the OTA an hour ago.

That's incorrect.. i guess you dont have an unlocker bootloade, or you're lying
If you use the official unlock method, you can't update via OTA.

That is not incorrect, my bootloader is unlocked via the unofficial method. OTA updates work fine this way and always have done.
I have recently gone back to stock from CM13 by flashing over TWRP with the stock recovery image and then sideloading the stock ROM via ADB, this was about five days ago. I received the update notification this morning and it ran correctly, like it always does.
If you have used the official method to unlock bootloader then you should already know that OTAs probably will not work as this was stipulated in the terms of using the official method.
For 550

Currently there is no root for any G6 yet. So far the only model with unlocked bootloader is T-MOBILE version and they don't even have root yet as T-Mobile disabled the fastboot commands needed to flash TWRP and SuperSU. Just give it some time, this phone just recently got released.
Any news as of yet?

There won't be any news.
There is no developer trying to root this phone.
There are two versions that have unlockable bootloaders.
Since there are versions that can be bought outright with custom recovery and root capability, the developers are focused on ROMS.
THE Best alternative is to sell what you have and buy the unlocked international version.

There is no root currently for Oreo. On s8s if you haven't taken the revision 3 bootloader you can downgrade and root nougat.
Also the 80% charge is the engineering kernel used for root. It is preset from Samsung to not charge over 80% this has been mentioned a million times over
so no root available yet for android oreo . what about the mobile data icon bcz it is missed from CP?

ahh i read wrong
I used to use system ui tuner required no root and status app no root either to over lay and hide icons
So bassicly all you can do if you have not updated to the newest version 3 bootloader is downgrade back to 7.0 and root from there
no i dont want to downgruade to noughat,
what about the icon that i didnt have ?

The 950w is the same as 950u And again if you are on bootlloader 3 or higher there is no 7.0 no root
What Is your current firmware and I may be able to direct you better

This is bad news, I am sick and tired of Samsung useless apps. I think my next cell will be a Pixel.
Is there any hope for this cell to soon be rootable?
