I'm looking to de-Google my Xiaomi Redmi A5 and I'm not sure which route to take.
Has anyone successfully de-Googled a Xiaomi Redmi A5? If so, which OS did you use and what was your experience like? @postmarketOS @mobian @linmob @[email protected] @ubuntu @omgubuntu

💡 First of all, the question is can the bootloader be re-locked? If not, what is the point of doing it?
From a security perspective, a device with an unlocked bootloader is not suitable for further use.

The custom rom with the largest userbase, Lineage OS, does not support bootloader relocking. So, it is not such a big deal for most people as you display it.
