I installed orange fox obviously after unlocking my bootloader, plus I rooted with magisk 18.1 however I've noticed that I may have lost my fast charge capabilities. Is this possible?

Hi
I noticed OnePlus 3 does NOT allow user to have fully working phone when one re-lock bootloader with customised recovery or modified ROM. I would only assume there is security feature put in and checking the integrety of the ROM during boot. Did OxygenOS get digitally signed? Does this mean we don't have any method to root the OxygenOS and yet keep bootloader locked?
The reason I like to keep bootloader locked is becuase it's much more secure, otherwise, anyone can took the phone reflesh the recovery and have full access to my contents. Once they are done, they can simply swap it back without me notice anything.
I have done this with Nexus 5.
Any ideas for achieve below as end result?
* bootloader locked, running OxygenOS, and have SuperSU installed
* bootloader locked, running any ROM, and have phone rooted
Thanks
You could try to root your phone with KingRoot, which allows having your device rooted without a Custom Recovery or unlocked device.
Do we know what method is KingRoot using for this?
I wanted to install Gcam and I saw it needs Magisk, since you need to unlock bootloader and from what I get also to root it I was wondering what were the drawbacks if there are any?
I waited the 72 hours and then ran the program on my PC for the Mi Unlock, and then afterwards I wiped the phone clean, flashed TWRP, and put on miui10, forgetting that doing a data wipe resets the Mi Unlock status. Do I really need to reunlock it, cause if so it will delete all my data again..
Edit: It's just odd because on the bootloader screen, 'fastboot oem device-info' shows my bootloader unlocked still, I have Magisk installed, running joeykrim's Root Checker from google play shows root access not properly installed, running flar's DevCheck from google play shows the device rooted, I have BusyBox installed , and lastly, in the Developer options, OEM Unlocking is ticked on, but doesn't say already unlocked, and the Mi Unlock status still shows locked. Lots of conflicting info here, so just a bit wary since this is my first Xiaomi phone.
I went ahead and tried unlocking again with the tool and I get this (see screenshot)
Usually unlocked only once, but if your device is locked again, it can be unlocked without any damage. Don't know what ROM you use If it is a world class ROM, ctf will not pass. For magisk, you have to modify the fingerprint to pass. Try studying. You have to do it. Good luck.

WEll everything is running fine being rooted. MAgisk SAfetyNet passes, rooted apps work fine, but Mi Unlock still shows my phone is 'locked'm but fastboot says it's unlocked. And I'm using the official miui_MIMIX2Global_V10.2.2.0.ODEMIXM_a92827160b_8.0 rom and fw_chiron_miui_MIMIX2Global_V10.2.2.0.ODEMIXM_a92827160b_8.0 firmware
You don't have to worry. I think your device is already unlocked. If the device is still locked, you cannot install twrp.
yeah thats why im confused. everything works fine. i guess i wont worry about it unless i come to a problem
I've asked this on Reddit already, but thought it was worthwhile to ask here as well
It's been a long time (3 years) since I had a device that I'd been able to root and I wanted to make sure I'm ready to do it on my UK 7T whenever a solution becomes available (I've checked here and it seems a bit hit and miss at the moment). In order to get my device prepped should I just unlock the bootloader and wait for someone to get TWRP and Magisk working? Basically, I want to avoid losing all my stuff in x weeks time when the process becomes safer/simpler and from memory I think unlocking the bootloader causes everything on the device to be wiped.
TLDR
2 real questions:
Does the process of rooting the device wipe it, or does that only happen when unlocking the bootloader?
If I unlock the bootloader when I first get the device, will this be me prepped for rooting later on without losing all of my data?
Thanks
If you're not going to install a custom Rom, you're prepared for root without losing your data. I did it too yesterday when my 7T arrived, right after update oxygenos.

I can't see myself moving from OOS, I just want root. So you're saying if I unlock bootloader from the off I'll be good for rooting in the future?

I'm changing from an iPhone 7+ to Oneplus 7T and got it yesterday. Why you don't make a backup when it's time for root? So far I can't see Custom ROMs or a working TWRP for the Oneplus 7T.

Yes, i lost data when unlocking the bootloader but then it was okay while rooting. I think you should unlock the bootloader and root as soon as you get the phone, but after updating to latest 10.0.4 version
Unlocked Bootloader / no Magisk Hide
Consider that apps like GooglePay or other apps will refuse working since they detect the unlocked bootloader state as possible security leak. GPay says, that due unlocked bootloader it does not want to initialze it.
So after facing this problems I would recommend, since magisk is limited to patching the actual boot.img, to stay on locked bootloader and unlock it after a secure method exists to install magisk and maybe TWRP. Otherwise, if you donot use these kind of apps, you can stay with unlocked BL.
I upgraded to official Lineage 17.1 after holding out from Oreo for a while. Everything is working perfectly, except for passing SafetyNet. CTSprofile continues to return false. After reading about the new security enhancements put into SafetyNet, I searched for a method to sign ROMs so that they would pass dm-verity and be safe to lock the bootloader, but I can't find anyone who has done it for recent ROMs.
How does one sign a custom ROM so that they can pass the bootloader's checks?
Can a Verizon Pixel that's been unlocked with the workaround be unlocked after it has been locked on a custom ROM?
Is it possible to use further tweaks on a signed and locked ROM (eg Magisk, modules, etc) ?
it will not be possible.
