Hey guys this is probably a lame question... does any risk come with buying a phone with an unlocked boot loader?
I bought an OnePlus 5 from ebay used in great shape. The seller advised the the phone was rooted with Android 10.
When i start the phone it does have a warning advising the bootloader is unlocked and cautions the OS may not be secure.
The phone did have what seemed to be a fresh install of Android 10... but after trying a few root check apps ... didnt seem to be rooted.
I went ahead and reinstalled android 10 ...
Now that it has what i know to be a clean copy of A10... do i need to worry about the unlocked boot loader? Could there be any other
way my personal info could be compromised ?
Thanks!!!
