Hello. I'm thinking to relock bootloader of my infinix note7 after flashing stock and want some guidance against these points:
1. If I root my phone, remove some system apps (bloatware), then unroot the phone again. Can I relock the bootloader afterward?
2. If above question is "yes", then after removal of those apps, do they removed from factory partition, or would be back upon doing factory/data reset from within the system or through stock recovery?
3. At last, How to relock the bootloader and avoid red state?

1. Sure you can, there's nothing to prevent you from relocking bootloader but you'll end up with red state brick so basically, No you shouldn't
2. removing bloatwares with root removes them permanently
3. ensure that your device is running full stock firmware before relocking

the entire point of a locked bootloader is to ensure that the OS on the device has not been tampered with
