I currently have the Pixel 2. Am looking for an upgrade!
There aren't too many phones on the Verizon network in the US that allow an unlockable bootloader. I am hopeful that the newest OnePlus phone will. Does anyone have any information to confirm or deny that this phone will be available on Verizon with full 4G function?
Thanks!
I'm hoping too, want to replace my P3XL with something that has a larger screen, but hate Samsung's UI. Fingers crossed!! I believe the leaked "specs" on the Oppo site last week showed it as having the proper bands, BUT as we all know it has to be allowed by Verizon before we can really use it
I bought a unlocked oneplus 6t and put my sim card from Verizon in it but had no call service so I went to the verizon store and asked them about it I told them that the bootloader was unlocked they said don't care so the gave me a new sim card still no go so they let me talk to a tech guy they did some stuff and bam it was up and running. So I hope we can do it with the 7 pro on Verizon.
I would be coming from pixel 2 XL. Bought the non carrier specific variant from Google store, not from Verizon, and put my SIM card in it, and it works great on Verizon's network, without the locked down bootloader. I'm hoping the same can be done with this device. Looks very tempting as an upgrade.
I am in the same boat, this device based on a few of the leaks I've seen and concepts, looks absolutely amazing. I completely forgot OnePlus is not compatible with Verizon and although I am not hopeful the new release will support Verizon's bands, I would buy this device 100% if Verizon supports it. :fingers-crossed:
I'm hoping we can believe the pre-order Oppo page as it lists all the same bands as the 6T..........problem is, there is the same typo in the list of bands as on the 6T page so I'm guessing they just copy/pasted. So we still don't know for sure.

The onplus 6T introduced verizon compatibility, I find it hard to believe the next one wouldn't support it.

Precisely - why would OnePlus want to shoot itself in the foot? Breaking Verizon compatibility with the 7 Pro would, in fact, be doing exactly that. To be honest, merely the 3a (if not the 3a XL) are rather large (pardon the pun)
problems for the 7 Pro as it is - and for me, Verizon compatibility is not an issue at all - I'm on the T-Mobile half of Tracfone, and I'm not looking to go anywhere (I'm quite happy where I am service-wise).
Problem #1 - Neither Pixel 3a has a Notch. (At all.) That can't be said of the OnePlus 7 Pro - or 6T, for that matter. Even the 3a XL is - straight-up - $479 (migrating without trade-in (Just Black)). Cheaper than the 7 Pro or 6T, or any Samsung phone (that includes the S9, or even Note 9 - both of which would stick me with a notch). While I would not *mind* OneUI, I don't like being stuck with a notch. OneUI is not the problem; the notch, however, is.
Problem #2 - There *is* such a thing as Too Much Phone, What features do you *yourself* actually *use* on your phone? The very reason why I don't look for wireless charging is that I have it *now* (the S7 Snapdragon phones - such as my S7 - support it) - do I use it? No - therefore, why do I need it? USB charging - which the Pixel 3a and 3a XL, like my S7, has today - is supported - and is a feature I use.. The camera - even, if not especially in any flagship - and this *does* include the Pixel 3a/XL - is overkill, to put it bluntly. Why overpay for a feature I would barely use? (And I don't take selfies - at all.)
How do you figure that the 7 pro has a notch? Pretty sure that's its big draw is that it doesn't have a notch or cutout of any sort.
True, Pro has no notch!

He probably added the APN for Verizon. You have to do that when you put in a new SIM sometimes.
Livestream over.......and we still don't know. No mention of Verizon
UPDATE: Gizmodo says it'll work on all carriers except Sprint.....: https://gizmodo.com/oneplus-7-pro-review-stunning-all-screen-design-thats-1834738811
Two places now saying it'll work with Verizon
https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/14/...ile-announcement-release-price-specs-features
and
https://oneplus.gadgethacks.com/news/everything-you-need-know-about-oneplus-7-pro-0195362/
I think it's confirmed to be working with Verizon on their website, also now I'm kinda considering waiting because OnePlus may release an even more beefier version later in the year.
Also with the pricing, Flagship Killer has become just another Flagship device.
One Plus confirmed by chat with me it will work with Verizon in the US

Does it still have to be registered as CDMA-less on Verizon like the OnePlus 6T?
I just moved to T-mobile and got mine today

Don't think so, according to OnePlus website it has cdma bands but even if it has to be registered as cdma-less it's no big deal. 6T worked flawlessly on verizon's network! And yes the OnePlus website confirms it works on Verizon!

If this is the first CDMA-less device on your Verizon number, yes I believe you will need to chat/call VZW. I won't need to since it was already set up for my 6t for the SIM I'll use in my 7 Pro. I think it's based on the number, not the account as I have other family on my plan that have CDMA radios.
XDA posted an article about a rumour and another article saying that the Pro model will have 5G
OnePlus 7 Pro forums are now open
It’s getting close to the time of year when a new OnePlus device is announced. We already know when the OnePlus 7 will be revealed. This year is a little different, however, as OnePlus is announcing multiple devices. We already opened the forums for the standard OnePlus 7 and now we have forums for the OnePlus 7 Pro.
The “Pro” version of the OnePlus 7 will support 5G, have a Quad HD+ Super AMOLED display, 90Hz refresh rate, 4,000 mAh battery, and fast 30W charging. It will also be more expensive than any other OnePlus device. If you’re excited about the phone, hit the link below to join the forum!

I though OP is making a 5G model separate from the Pro model
I saw some interesting 5G references playing around in the shortcut manager app earlier today.

It is. The model is Oneplus 7 Pro 5G. Different phone.
The OnePlus 7 Pro 5G being an n78-only phone would explain entirely why EE UK is the only partner for it. If the regular Pro has it, that would be insane. I don't think the mmwave antennas are needed for 3.5 GHz, especially if the phone doesn't support mmwave to begin with.

I know next to nothing about 5G, but have been holding out for the 5G version, hoping to use it on T-Mobile when it's available in the near future. Are you saying that the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G won't work in the US?

If it's only for 3.5 GHz, then no, not yet. It might work in a few years if the CBRS spectrum is auctioned off and built out, but not today. Europe is deploying 5G on that frequency.
If the phone support mmwave frequencies, then probably yes.
The rep told me the pro is actually 5G capable. #ThatIsAll

Thanks for the info! Guess I'll just wait to see when it's out.

Was that a T-Mobile or a OnePlus rep and did he/she sound "rep"utable?
A ONEPLus Rep that was there for the special release event. He works for Oneplus not TMO. So yes reputable.

I dought that is correct.
According to this: https://www.cellularmaps.com/5g-coverage.shtml "Verizon Mobile 5G is only available in Minneapolis & Chicago." I think we need someone with Verizon there to see if the 7 Pro gets 5g.
I got 5g Pro pre ordered with EE UK.
Release is 31st may.
Hoping for not locked bootloader as they said they don't lock OnePlus devices but this is exclusive to EE so hopefully they don't start to lock.
Personally I thought about it and decided not too especially because the x50 modem is first gen. A second gen x55 5g modem planned for phones later this year. Just wanted to get some opinions now that its being released what do people think of their current purchase.
TBH, I thought about holding off, but then the thought of 5G not being everywhere anyway turned me back on ordering a 7PRO again. So far it's been amazing. When 5G comes out I'll just see about it then. I'm interested on the pricing and the T-mobile support.
Only difference being the faster speeds... Its not like we struggling on a current 4g streaming YouTube or Netflix....
I'm good with this badboy here and now! Cheers
I hope I'm wrong, but from what I have read, the 7 Pro 5G is being released only on UK carrier EE because it will only work on their frequencies, which are different than those in the US.
The 5g version won't be compatible with Verizon's 5g I think

With huawei being banned here, i think 5g will be postponed if not, im pretty sure it will affect the timeline.
Hi, I want to get a 7 Pro to replace my Mi Mix running AICP on Verizon in the USA. I'm wondering which model(s) will work, and if any versions will have a more reduced capability on Verizon. I do not have 5g, and don't think I will while I have this phone.
Will only gm1917 work?
I couldn't find anything about people using the gm1915 tmobile 7 Pro on verizon network. I'm wondering if it's a bad idea to buy a tmobile version (used, might save a little money or find a good price quicker). Any idea if converting tmobile > international version would work also?
A lot of ebay sellers do not list the model #, or say whether tmobile or whatever. I'm a little worried about receiving something not gm1917
I want 8gb or 12gb + 256gb.
gm1917 north america
gm1915 tmobile
gm1920 5g Europe
gm1925 5g Sprint (I don't need 5g)
I read about the other 7 Pro + Verizon quirks: wifi calling, might need to troubleshoot CDMAless, etc. That seems fine, I'm willing to do some work to get it rooted, rom'd, & running. I love the Mi Mix + AICP, if I could upgrade the camera I'd keep it. If you've got any other advice, please lmk.
Thank you for all the help on the excellent forums

T-Mobile will work. Updates are slow.
I have the GM1917
Since your with Verizon I would go with the 1917 version. I don't know about TMobile but I have the 1910 and has Verizon's main bands and you can talk and use data and send a text but won't receive a text back. I went through this scenario with verizons rep and made sure cdma less feature was on and just would not work. You can try with the TMobile but it's less of a headache and time if you just get the 1917.
Hi, I just tried taking my Cricket SIM card out of my OnePlus 7 Pro and putting it in another phone, and after I returned it to the 7 Pro, I got a notification that my line was suspended. So I proceeded to call Cricket customer service and asked why this had happened.. They said that the Network is changing to 5G and that this phone(the OnePlus 7 Pro) was no longer going to be supported after Feb 2022 because the 7 Pro is considered to be a 3G compatible phone and that all 3G compatible devices will no longer work after that date.
My question is: Are all carriers doing this? If not, What are the Carriers that will remain 3G-Backwards-Compatible?? I really do not want to buy a new phone as I bought this 7 Pro for over 600 bucks. Any help/information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
