Updating normally will brick the phone with an unlocked bootloader. You would need to re-lock it or flash the ROM manually.

Hi there folks,
Did anyone on stock b27 non-root, locked bootloader try if the unlock procedure provided by @DrakenFX still works? Also if relock is still working? I mean did the bootloader unlock procedure already got changed as announced from ZTE?
For now I want to stay stock, but don't want to loose possibility to unlock after the update to B27...
Thx!
Or is it at least possible to downgrade to B20 from B27 using tenfar's tool and then unlock bootloader?
Just for the record: it is still possible to unlock on fully stock B27 using this threads method:

Just received my V20 US996 from Amazon coming from a Nexus 6p running PureNexus. Been checking out some of the roms but I'm at a loss. I've read so much I think I've confused myself even more. I've read sites outside of XDA that give detailed instructions on how to install twrp / root with no mention at all about the need to unlock the bootloader on us996 but then I read some posts here and it says unlock bootloader and others that just say to install rom you need twrp / root. So...... which is it? Do I really need to unlock the bootloader and if so can it be relocked in case phone has to be sent back to amazon under square-trade warranty?
Thank you in advance for any help in this,

Also are there any downsides in unlocking the bootloader? Can everything be reverted later on? If warranty is temporarily void, can it be restored later?
Alot of doubts and questions but I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me. Thankyou!
Technically,
when you unlock the bootloader, it's not gonna be under warranty anymore. So basically it is like you unlocked the bootloader, flashed as many roms/kernels you could and than when your mind is set to again use MIUI and get the warranty, you flash latest MIUI and relock the bootloader.
