If I unlock bootloader and root how to update to further versions by huawei?
Will the warranty be voided?
Is there any real advantage of rooting mate 9?
TWRP is necessary for rooting?
Like Oneplus does huawei also encourage rooting?

You should be able to download the OTA and flash in recovery. This method worked on the Hauawei 6P. Other more experienced Huawei users, correct me if this is wrong
Will the warranty be voided?
Yes
Is there any real advantage of rooting mate 9?
It depends on what you want to do with the device. It will allow removal of unwanted system apps, ad blockers, build prop tweaks and future custom ROM flahshing
TWRP is necessary for rooting?
Yes. This is how you will flash the necessary root files to the device.
Like Oneplus does huawei also encourage rooting?
No they do not. But they do allow the unlocking of the bootloader.

I am on the Google variant. I'm curious whether simply unlocking the bootloader will prevent me from using Android Pay (and similarly protected apps). And same question for SuperSU systemless root?
As a bonus, if I were to unlock, root, modify a file (like hosts), then unroot and relock, would it complain?

If you modify the system and relock the bootloader, you risk bricking the device entirely, if it won't accept fastboot commands

First question, I think on some firmware, custom Kernel with root is allowing Android Pay for some users on some carriers. I wouldn't universalize, you have to try.
However, only unlocking bootloadet doesn't work, but in addition a custom kernel can fix what breaks is needed.

Second question:
EXACTLY: the bootloader detects changes in the system partition away from pure stock, so if you change things, that signals "corruption" to the bootlader so it will PREVENT boot and as ndarkside says, RISK OF BRICK

Very true, but on the pixel with the November update, safety net checks for bootloader unlock, but I think Franco kernel can hide it to pass the check, if there is no root.
I don't want to Loose data, is there any way to root my honor with one click tools?
I'd be surprised if SuperSU (2.79 or earlier) or Magisk 12 didn't work - while the Kirin655 octo-core SoC powering the 6x is not Exnyos or Qualcomm, it's not Mediatek, either. Failing that, you can always install a ROM that includes self-rooting (Lineage 13, for example). While you need a third-party recovery, TWRP is available.
Dont use kingroot. Just use the TWRP way of rooting your device its much safer that way
I think it is quite difficult for EMUI 4.0 Android MM to root without unlocking bootloader...
Actually backup your data, unlock bootloader and flash TWRP may be a safer way to do it...

It's THE only safest way. Other rooting methods take advantage of exploits which may be hard to remove.

Hello. I've some questions about the below concepts.
1. What is Rebrand? Does it mean, say, changing from hydrogenos to oxygenos? (Same as flashing?) Can I upgrade from Oneplus natively after that?
2. Do we need to unlock bootloader to root Oneplus 8?
3. Do we need to flash TWRP to root?
Many thanks!
I researched on Chinese Oneplus discussions
1. Can upgrade from OTA after flashing oxygenos
2. Yes, need unblock to root
3. No, no need TWRP to root
Hello all xda members,
I am not new in rooting. I was rooting my phone since 2014. When KitKat and lollipop introduced. After I purchased the new redmi 8A dual, it's impossible to root with kingoroot and with others. So, I googled how to root Android 10 miui11. I found there is an app called magisk. So I installed it. Now, I searched more, I found that I have to unlock my bootloader in order to install custom recovery. I really don't wanna unlock my bootloader and custom recovery. I just wanna root for temporarily because I need to convert some application to sys apps.
Now,
I found that people doing another magisk way to root and is called 'patching boot image', . I patched my boot image and download the platform tool. Now, I am completely puzzled because I don't know what to do next! Some are saying I have unlock bootloader and some are rooting without unlocking bootloader.
If by patching boot image root is possible without bootloader then could you please write the steps! I am completely noob in magisk line.
Or,
Is there any way to root MIUI11 without unlocking bootloader? I really don't wanna loss my data.
Thanks for reading!

Your only chance of rooting without unlocking bootloader is to find a universal rooting app or PC program that has an exploit that works on your device. But, I doubt that there is an app or PC program that can root your device, those stopped working on devices with android versions newer than Marshmallow.

You can install the OTA update from here. Just follow the instructions Google provided at the top of the page and you should be all updated. It's only the full images that require the bootloader to be unlocked.
Just go look up factory images for Pixel phones. You can install firmware right from the web browser. You don't need to have root. Root is optional.
Do you mean without an unlocked bootloader? Root is not the same thing and does not determine how you can flash firmware.
If your bootloader is unlocked, you can use the Android Flash Tool. If your bootloader is not unlocked, downgrading is impossible.

This only works if OEM Unlocking is enabled in Developer Options.

@Albi Lukaj, Please be aware that unlocking your bootloader WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE AND RETURN IT TO STOCK!!!
If that is not preferable, you might try applying the OTA like stated in Post #2, but I am not sure if it works downgrading a version (it probably doesn't)...
