Unlook bootloader then update or update then unlock bootloader? Or does it matter?

Just got my OnePlus One yesterday and I was gonna unlock the bootloader but there is a update out.
So my question is:
Do I update THEN unlock the bootloader?
Do I unlock the bootloader THEN update?
Does it matter?
Thank you

It doesn't matter - just unlock it before you install anything

Doesn't matter at all, as @spanna said. The bootloader can be unlocked no matter which build you're on.

Yes or No Question - Can I still root my Verizon Pixel Build NMF26O

Just need a yes or no. I've read tons of threads but can't get a simple yes or no. I inherited this phone so I couldn't unlock before taking an update. Can I root this phone:
Yes
or
No

No, you cannot currently root a Pixel on NMF26O with the default locked bootloader. The current root method requires an unlocked bootloader, and the exploit that previously allowed the Verizon bootloader to be unlocked does not work on NMF26O.

Can you flash back to OEM image and unlock then reflash new build then root?

No. You can't flash unless it is already unlocked.

i thought if your on the google version your able to unlock bootloader? Verizon model is not able to unlock bootloader if you take the 7.1.1 update.

Why can't you? Google version allow OEM unlock in dev.options then reboot to fast boot and run fastboot oem unlock. Unless i missed something?

i was trying to use the toolkit to unlock my bootloader

Someone correct me here, but on Google version you don't need to use tool kit i think. I have not unlocked mine and am unsure, but from what i read it's quite literally allow oem unlock then fastboot oem unlock. Again, haven't done it yet so maybe I am off base here.

My apologies, I misread your original post as you having a "Google Verizon Pixel", not version.

[Help] Can i lock my bootloader?

Can I lock my bootloader again? Because I can't flash anythis, because FRP is locked, I think that is the problem why I can't flash no?And in the development settings enable oem unlock it's blocked and I can't switch the button...

Usually users report to do the rollback to MM and they get the phone locked and unrooted
Just like out of the box..
But in your case I would be more carefull since oem unlock can not be changed..
Let some more experiaced user tell you if you can do the rollback to MM evan with the
oem unlock not changed..

Use the adb command with the unlocking code you got

What to do with adb and unlocking code, because bootloader is unlocked, but i can t do anything, and i cannot enable oem unlock

I have answered similar question here. Now you have to flash rollback and after that B131 (everything as stock). Then you have to update to version you want to unlock and follow my steps.

Rooting lg g710n on android 10?

Is it possible to root LG G710N on android 10 or will i have to go back to Oreo ULM before?
The simplest method is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

You must unlock bootloader success before think about root

That's where the problem is. I can't access my fastboot mode. Using adb reboot bootloader or holding volume - while phone starts up, nothing seems to work.
I also learnt bootloader is only unlockable on ULM and European versions. I have a Korean model.
Will cross-flashing to the European version help?
