Do you NEED to? No, and most certainly not for the uses you've just mentioned.
Should you?
Decide for yourself!

I am sure there are plenty of people that have bought the phone that don't even know xda exist or what rooting/ unlocking the boot loader means which is fine. But since you are here yes do it you won't be sorry.
Follow the above URL instead of using chainfire or whatever Google comes up with in the first search results. It has been causing problems and goofy things.

No you don't and also, no you shouldn't. Not unless you identify the need to. People jump into root for no reason and without understanding. These people often break their phones. Don't let this be you.

Even if you don't decide to root right away, I would suggest at the very least unlocking the bootloader before setting up your phone. When you unlock, it wipes all your data so it's best to get it out of the way before you invest too much time setting up your phone. If you unlock but never decide to root, it's no big deal, but at least you're covered if you do decide to take the plunge.

i'll send signature file, then you need to flash it into phone using next way
install fastboot drivers for phone.
power off phone.
run
fastboot flash unlock <signature file>
connect phone to cable
run
fastboot oem unlock-go
after this phone bootloader will be unblocked and you can use unsigned kernel ( and do many more things, but we mostly want unsigned kernel )

Since you named the thread official, how it is official? Can you explain?
the way how HMD designed it
What would be the worst case scenario of negative outcome when we try to unlock with the mentioned methods? I mean, if the unlocking failed.
Have you also tried this personally on a Nokia 6 device?
This is kind of interesting

I want to root my nokia 2
I found a post for rooting nokia 2 in blogthetech site but stuck for twrp
so per xda rules i cannot post where to go to unlock your bootloaders on the nokia 6.1 but if you google search you will find it. it's $5 and you provide your IEMI and i had the code and was unlocked within 10 minutes.
im not a dev but id love to start a discussion on how to build twrp and achieve root. i wanted to extract my boot.img and try to patch with magisk but im positive you need twrp to see the partition scheme and temp root to make a system dump. since this is an android one device its possible it follows the pixel scheme and has a/b partitions which makes it even harder for development of roms. but root should be possible if we have someone with the knowledge how to achieve it.
i just wanted to start a discussion and see where this takes us. this is a nice budget device and it deserves root.
im still not sure why its against the rules here to pay for a unlock when jcase used to promote the sunshine app to s-off and unlock bootloaders for $25 per phone.
ive attached a screenshot of my unlocked bootloader so people don't think im full of it. i have the USA 32gb / 3gb ram model from best buy.
let the fun begin! :fingers-crossed:
What carrier do you use? Does your phone normally after unlocking bootloader?

its a gsm unlocked phone but I use it on tmobile. yes its works fine. once you unlock the bootloader it does factory reset and wipe data.
it seems the only way to do a system dump is to buy a edl usb type c cable since we have no temp root or official firmware from nokia. if anybody has one of these cables and gets their bootloader unlocked we can get a system dump including the recovery.img to build twrp and the boot.img to patch with magisk.
I succed to unlock bootloader. I pay for it. I want to back up rom and find way to make custom recovery to flash magisk
why your bootloader ui is different ?
there's a word "one" after "android" ?

Shame no magisk currently or I would be off to buy a unlock key! Bought this phone on contract a month or two ago and am kinda missing magisk.

You should read/search more...
In almost every thread is link how to unlock (because people needs to talk about that everywhere), for now no option to root, unless we have TWRP or the boot image. And you need to wait for Android P, it should be out in August, I think...

I can buy the cable and try to do that. I never done it, but I can Google it and try it.

It only cost me $8, but I least I have it for future usage or to fix phone if bricked. Thanks for working on rooting this device. Everyone will be grateful for you time and work. I don't think I would have the knowledge needed to do it and would have had to do some research to learn about it. Thank you.

How us P compared to Oreo ? Speed and fluidity .?
I think oreo has better battery. P never stuck very quickly Rom and stable. Now that on holidays I found a new add. You can use phone and Google maps can run in.small window! Usefull .. the ROM came with the basic stock Google tools. I like it. I don't like that I can't make modifications like xposed remove some Google apps like player and add others. I don't like that Nokia hasn't software that you can unbrick your phone (lg has the lg bringe). I don't like that Nokia isn't official unlock the bootloaders.
hello, im new in this forum.
i have a mi mix 2s and i wanted to unlock it. mi unlock tool said: device already unlocked..
so I started the flash tool with a global and I think i forgot to switch from "clean all and lock" to "clean all"
so the phone booted in the recovery and said "this version cant be installed on this device"
now I cant do anything...i tried with
- Xiaomi Tool (doesnt works because of usb debugging isnt enabled)
-xiaomi unlock tool says i have to sign in to my account on the device
-Xiomi flash tool (Erase boot error), i tried the official gloabl and china
-adb mode knows my device but no flashing
A friend says there is now software on it. but i dont know
I CAN go to fastboot and i can go to the recovery 3.0
PLS help me! Thank you so much
Try to flash twrp, do factory reset with encryption. Then flash rom with adb sideload
If you have the XE model (which is the Chinese model) and locked your bootloader after flashing the Global ROM your phone is bricked. The Chinese model can't boot up the Global ROM with a locked bootloader. If that's what you did I don't think there is a solution. You need to unlock the bootloader again but if the unlock tool doesn't work I don't know of another option with these phones.

There was a case like this in the miui forum. The guy there contacted xiaomi support and with their help he could unlock the bootloader without signing in
@sidofido
Do I need usb Debugging for your method?
Usb Debugging does not works

Okay so I send an email to the Support.

That's apparently true but there were also at least a half dozen people who contacted Xiaomi Support after reading that and reported that they received no help. They are currently trying to get the name of the specific support person who unlocked the bootloader.
That doesnt Sound good... Where can I get Support? I Used [email protected], is that the right way?

There are threads about this issue on the MIUI Forum. Someone else said today that Xiaomi Support bound his account to his device which allowed him to use the Unlock Tool. It seems to be very hit or miss in regards to getting somebody in support who understands the issue. You should really go to the Xiaomi Forum for the MI Mix 2S. Only Xiaomi can help you and you will get better information there regarding this issue.
I want to flash my Mix 2s from Android P back to Miui 9.5. I purchased the phone with P already installed, does anyone know how I can flash it successfully? I am new at this. my phone says unlocked underneath the xiaomi name when I turn it on so I think its unlocked bootloader? but its not rooted any help would be greatly appreciated

You might be able to fix your issue by flashing the ROM using the MI PC Suite Beta program. That program allows you to flash a ROM when the bootloader is locked but I don't know much about it. Someone in a similar situation as you claimed he got his phone running again using that program.

Using the MI Flash Tool on your computer is probably the easiest way. Download the latest stable ROM if you want to go back to MIUI 9.5. You need the MI Flash version that ends in extension tgz--not the fastboot version which is a zip file. Uncompress the tgz file, put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it to your computer, open the MI Flash Tool on your computer with administrative access. It should detect your phone. If it doesn't I think there is a refresh button. After your phone is detected point the program to the location of the uncompressed ROM folder. Before you flash look at the options at the very bottom. The default will relock your bootloader so you might want to change that. When you hit flash the tool does everything automatically and returns your phone to stock MIUI.
So..... Miui Support says I have to go to the seller....
The guy in miui forum who solved said, he just tried the latest unlock tool and it works.
I Tried lots of Tools, the latest too and it doesnt Work.
So my Phone is destroyed now?
