unlocking bootloader for rom update

[kades]

Hi, I have an moto g5s+ original (locked bootloader), but I'd like to remove the opertator apps without root changing. Can I flash a new rom retail in order to do that? In other words, changing firmware by fastboot or RSD needs unlocked bootloader? Thanks.

Most likely the bootloader will need to be unlocked, to flash different carrier firmware
