Czech T-Mobile ROM on a G935FD, will it lock bootloader?

If I were to flash the Czech T-Mobile firmware on my G935FD, will it lock the bootloader? I am under the impression that the carrier firmwares come with locked bootloaders.
Please note that the Czech T-mobile variant is the Exynos variant, same as my G935FD.
Regards
I am hoping that someone responds to this and sets me straight.

Convert G900A (AT&T) firmware to SM-G900W8 VMC Canada (Virgin Mobile)

Hello,
Is it possible to convert G900A (AT&T) firmware to SM-G900W8 VMC Canada (Virgin Mobile) firmware?
Thanks!
no. different bands. odin will not allow you to flash the firmwares
the G900A is bootloader locked, not o good variant to flash roms/root
but if phone is sim unlocked it should work on any gsm netwrork.
as for canadian fw, why would you want it, all fw are basically the same except the bloatware that is added and/or specific carrier apps for some added user functionality.
the radio/modem might come into play depending on the variant/carrier, but should be ok from att to use in canada

Does the US Unlocked model (SM-G950U1) support HPUE?

I can't find the info anywhere... Does anyone know for sure if the S8 Unlocked Version supports HPUE? For now I've carrier switched it to Sprint (SPR CSC) but I'd like to run the XAA (Unlocked CSC) if possible again as my phone is an XAA version. For HPUE I'll keep it on the SPR version...
In test mode I see the transmit on B41 @ 26DB so I can confirm the unlocked has HPUE enabled.

Flashing AMZ KDZ to US997 With Unlocked Bootloader?

The Prime version of the US997 has all the carrier-specific features from AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon that the regular US997 does not have. Unfortunately, the Prime version also has a locked bootloader. Might it be possible to flash the Prime version firmware to a US997 with an already unlocked bootloader? What typically happens when firmware from a locked phone model is flashed to the unlocked model? Is it possible to only cross-flash specific partitions like the CSC or AP like in Samsung models (when using Odin)?
