I'm shocked there is absolutely no discussion on the new method that just launced. Due to the lack of activity, it's not made clear if the bootloader unlock method unlocks the sim card as well.. I don't even know if the method is worth taking or has any significant issues in the longrun..
Convert to international and it bypasses it
Edit:
Nevermind didn't read it correctly
If you're talking about the q upgrade to get bootloader unlocked. I'm kind of surprised too.
I unlocked my bootloader via that method and it did not sim unlock my op7p. I dropped an at&t sim and it told me the phone is network locked and to use the Tmo unlock app.
Any method of getting it Sim unlocked if you are outside of the US?

None that I know of if you buy a network locked version like the GM1915 from TMobile. Have to go through the carrier for SIM unlock on those.
The guy that started the tmo to international conversion thread said it's possible, but complicated and would be release later. Hope they get it out soon.
The Q unlocks the bootloader but the GSM SIM is still locked. I tried this command and got this response
./fastboot erase modemst2
Erasing 'modemst2' FAILED (remote: 'Erase is not allowed for Critical Partitions
')
./fastboot reboot
Rebooting OKAY [ 0.002s]
Would be grateful to find someone with useful info on how to sim unlock this phone.
Thanks
man, would love to find a way to sim unlock this outside the US. sucks
If you have t-mobile version there are 2 guys on guide thread that unlock the phone through the t-mobile app. If your using t-mobile outside the carrier you will have to pay to a 3er party service eBay haves them
Do you know of any 3rd party service that can do this? Please let me know, thanks

Refer to my thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/t-mobile-op7-pro-sim-unlock-t3957662) if you need your T-Mobile OP7 Pro SIM unlocked.
The issue is that I'm outside US. I bought my phone on eBay and it had outstanding balance. The seller didn't provide me with the information you need for unlocking.

No, these commands are for the dangerous ability to flash & erase criticals like modem.
The code to unlock BL is:
fastboot oem unlock
(Erases all data)
---------- Post added at 08:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 AM ----------
I dunno if BL can be downgraded bc OP7P starts on android 9 rom which has security patches which prevent flashing to modem.
Found this thread for a different phone which has the same issue you guys are having:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/help/failed-remote-flashing-allowed-modem-t3924591
If BL can be modified, the perhaps you can erase/flash Modemst1 & 2. If anyone knows of someone who tinkers with BL, bring them here :fingers-crossed:

The phone was simlocked . Someone unlocked it (he unlocked the bootloader and then unlocked it with a box) . The phone was then sold to a customer who said that he wanted to update OTA . Then the phone became bricked .

If you try to unlock the bootloader with fastboot flashing unlock does it work or do you get an error? If you can't unlock the bootloader and flash the full factory image, you will likely have to try to get it replaced by Google.

If you brick your phone with a locked bootloader it wasn't your fault. Nothing you can do to it, can't root it, can't mod it. Just like any other locked phone. If it dies, send it to them for warranty.

No, basically everything you described was a terrible idea and it makes zero sense to intentionally lock the bootloader of a phone you just finished hooking up to a black box to forcibly modify software.
Never lock the bootloader of a modified device, that is just a given.

If you lock your bootloader with custom firmware what happens exactly? I know unlocking wipes the device but I can't remember what happened the last time I had to lock my bootloader. I've read it doesn't wipe. I was doing things too quickly to remember for myself..

Has the original poster tried to unlock bootloader again? The pic in the OP shows fastboot. That looks potentially hopeful. Hope that OTA wasn't 7.1.2
Hopefully the seller was legit, maybe the phone is still under warranty??? Waiting sucks, but if it's under warranty you can fix it for free. Might be worth the wait. If not if that's not an option...
I'm guessing this is a Verizon phone? If so, start worrying, bit don't quit, unless you are prepared to spend more money on a new phone. As long as you have fastboot, you have options.
So we all know the g7 is an awesome phone but for it to be rly great we alwayxs need root and mods , now its possible, this is only for the G710EM Variant since the us one doesnt have a bootloader unlock yet

2. Reboot to fastboot and unlock your bootloader
3. Flash the new boot.img with the commands fastboot flash boot_a pathtoboot.imghere and then fastboot flash boot_b pathtoboot.imghere
4. Reboot and install Magisk Manager Apk
5.Enjoy Root

Well of course it is appreciated but it was already known that the bootloader can be unlocked on the European variant. So when at first I seen the title said g7 I was hoping it would work for the US variant too but then it was edited to European.
ive installed xposed and some other modifications with success , i spoke to someone we might get twrp soon , im not able to make it since they changed the way recovery works and idk how it works xD

You are sim unlocked, right? Just making sure.. You do not need the unlock token, unless you plan to stay on the t-mobile OOS version. There's a guide right here to convert your phone to the international OOS, and thus unlock bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock"

I got the unlock code from fastboot, but when going to enter it on the OnePlus Site it says it is invalid because it is not a 64 digit unlock code. ????
I have an unlocked EU model IN2023 from Amazon UK and my OEM unlock button is greyed out. I'm so confused
I see this is an older thread, but I have the same problem with Nord CE; Oneplus support is not of any help (they just spam me with "we don't help with unlocking the bootloader, it's a security problem").
Anyone found a workaround?
I have been working on the sim unlock for the gm1915 for some time now. And could really use the help of our community. My Oneplus7 Pro is still financed, it was bought on ebay and can't be activated. So now I'm at the point that no messages pop up for the sim and I have some service but it won't register on the Network. Attached is the firehose I extracted from the .OPS Tmobile msmdownload on here. I don't think it's anywhere on line so enjoy my time well spent. The best way to use it is with QFIL then you can manage all the partitions as needed. I could really use a efs or qcn from a unlocked tmobile Op7P just make Sure u know how to clean out the imei. For your own benefits.
Update..
By digging into the unlock i found way more then i exspected . It seems there is a wrapper on the system. If anyone has noticed the Alarm or the Wake_lock .it all starts up after the very first boot ,with the gboard. Gboard and all the otheres are bonded together buy location services . This is all the gmscore .and when one is tripped by the alarm that is the wake_lock (clock) they all know. And the simlock is android auto that is part of the hidden apps. I found a whitelist.xml showing them all.when the wrong sim is entered the alarm is tripped and call is made to honk the horn,this is the simlock wallpaper that pops up.Also its swiches the sim id to emergency only.The carrier plmns used to lock are located and tyed to game mode,I have found a vulnerablity in the gmscore and have been able to pull it all. There is just way to much more to go into. All of these items have to be cleard to simunlock ,this is why the Tmobile rom is needed. If in the process somthing is done wrong and tripps the alarm the phone will reset the lock and sometimes reboot and not start back up.
heres the Firehose files
Update, by erasing the modemst1 and modemst2 it deleats the sim lock. And don't effect the IMEI at all. But by erasing them it clears all the uim configurations. Restoring efs with twrp goes back to locked. I'm in the process of rebuilding the missing NV- items one by one and should have a fully functional Sim Unlock for the T-Mobile OP7p. After doing all I have I might just have a working bypass for most T-Mobile locked qualcomm devices using the unlock app.
Nice work
Good luck, keep us posted on progress.
Good work friend.
Can this work also for the gm1925?

You will need to unpack the firehose file from the.ops back up file in the msmdownload tool for your phone. The one I have won't work .Its a different SOC then you can use it with QFIL and manage the partitions.

Right now I don't have access to all the info. And money is limited. I'm waiting for a good deal from eBay for one that only has a working unlocked main board. Don't care about anything else on it as long as I can connect to it. Then things will move faster. It seems they added alot this time.to stop us all
Update . If anyone would like to know and is not with the telegram group. I have found all the reasons why the T-Mobile OnePlus 7 pro has not been unlocked yet. Qualcomm has changed alot of internals and has a new updated encryption with the sdm855 SOC. But I'm not going to let it stop me. I have found out that the sim lock is implimented in the stock modem. I'm about done fully unencrypting it and already have it half way unpacked. I have also learnd that there might be a EFUSE for the sim lock. something else quit new. Looks like they must have started paying the programmers at tmobile for a change also.

Update . If anyone would like to know and is not with the telegram group. I have found all the reasons why the T-Mobile OnePlus 7 pro has not been unlocked yet. Qualcomm has changed alot of internals and has a new updated encryption with the sdm855 SOC. But I'm not going to let it stop me. I have found out that the sim lock is implimented in the stock modem. I'm about done fully unencrypting it and already have it half way unpacked. I have also learnd that there might be a EFUSE for the sim lock. something else quit new. Looks like they must have started paying the programmers at tmobile for a change also.

I have a unlocked modemst we can play with. We may be able to push this. As I saw you tried to zero modemst out just like I did. It does sim unlock the device for sure. But as stated it also won't properly read a sim as I believe nv is screwed up. If we can combine some of this I bet we do it. I gots a few ideas as well. If any one is willing to try stuff and such. Mines already unlocked. I got mine done directly from tmobile so I can't out right test my other ideas any more

wont work, i have went as far as erasing the full ufs even the gpt tables, and then writing back , the problem is the device encrypts the modemst1 and 2 using the hardware id .and that ID is hardcoded to the SOC and cant be changed , so u cant write another modemst1 and 2 to another device. the lock flag is encrypted inside them. I have been able to unlock the gm1925 sprint model .have locked and unlocked the same device 3 times now with sprints server.and just have to write the efs back to lock. even have a full log of the process. its just that im out of my range of exspertease and im haveing to learn as i go.
