Not too sure how it's done on pixel phones but on Samsung phones you needed a qpst program to write a new IMEI to the phone. Maybe that'll point you in the right direction

Any hope?

Can not!!!!!
You can...... but the HTC dongle website is down and trying to find anotherway is hopless, everyone bangs on about it being EXTREAMLY ILLEGLE, ALMOST TERROR ACTS, but no one will upload a link to a tool and leave it down to us to choose wether we want but plugging by FEDs because w want a new IMEI
I think can be done with medusa box. Registration process the phone solved a legal way.

Thanks FB Marketplace

I recently bought a Pixel off of FB Marketplace and ended up with a pretty expensive paperweight. I've researched for hours on here and have found some work arounds but none for the May 5th security patch. I've contacted Google to no answer and have tried contacting the seller but ended up with a block. I am stuck at the infamous FRP screen. I've checked the IMEI and the phone isn't claimed as lost or stolen. I know it's a long shot, but has anyone seen a bypass for the May 5th security patch or did I just buy a pricey brick. :crying:
RIP mate it's probably a stolen device

I'm in the same boat. I've tried some of the older fixes but no luck. If you figure something out please let me know!
How much did you pay? There is a fix now.
I dont know if it helps but after wiping data in stock recovery try running "fastboot reboot emergency" in pixel's fastboot mode.

It's $50 or so for the Pixel and $62 for the XL. Worth it in my opinion.

If someone has lost it I'm guessing it will be blocked and won't be able to make a phone call or use mobile data. You should hand it in to the police to give the owner a chance of getting it back (they might have stuff on their phone that they want to get back) . If you don't then it is theft. I'm pretty sure no one on the forums will help you with this and I hope that they don't.

Question Serial only 7-digits, but required to be 8 to submit for unlock token through OnePlus

So weirdly enough, my serial number of the OnePlus 9 Tmo version only has 7-digits. I have tried adding a 0 to the front and back of the serial and it still will not submit. Anyone else run into this issue?

there are 3 ways to read the s/n. 1 under settings, about phone, status. 2 on the back of the phone on the white sticker if you did not remove it. 3 On the box the phone came in.

get oneplus to escalate your case to level 3 techs, they can generate a custom token for you

dealing with oneplus, it may take weeks of going back and forth to get ur case escalated to someone who can actually do it but they did it for me. took several weeks but they finally got it to a level 3 tech that simply requested some info and i responded with the requested info and the next message they sent me an unlock token. knew exactly what i was wanting

I've been told to say to one (zero) before in the number but it didn't work, I've answered again saying it didn't work.

They told me the same but it hasn't worked for anyone I've read of that's tried that. Just keep pushing. Tell them that it's bad business to sell defective devices. I mean tbh that's what it IS basically even if everything works perfectly except the serial/unlock issue. Honestly they should have a pretty direct route for doing this after enough people have to get these tokens generated. Their aware of the problem so it's not like it's a unique situation
Just wanted to chime in, just purchased an unlocked T-Mobile Oneplus 9 from Airtalk Wireless. Mine has a 6 character serial number. Hopefully it doesnt take even longer to get an unlock token since I am missing 2 characters.
Took a month but I got Oneplus to send me an unlock token .bin going to try and unlock the bootloader a bit later.

Question I may have found out how to unlock early through T-Mobile

* I just got this phone 3 days ago *
I have not spoken with any tech support at all about this matter. I simply have been looking through everyone's post and I had came across the one where you put the special code in the dialer system. However, prior to that I had popped in my old SIM card from my pixel 4 that was already unlocked and then I did the check in. Went back to developer options and OEM was grayed out and said to connect to the internet. That was last night and obviously I put my new activated SIM back in since that time .Now today all of a sudden I get the notification that my device has been unlocked. I checked my T-Mobile app and indeed it said that my device is unlocked and ready for any compatible network.
I would also like to add that I did do the temporary unlock as well before I got the message . Not sure if that part was before or after I swapped SIM and did the dialer method. And yes I know that that wouldn't have done anything either by itself but maybe that also helped possibly fool the system into thinking I was already unlocked idk but thats it honestly. Could be luck but I wish you all luck at the same time !
I have pics for proof including the 800 I still owe on it.
you lucky dog there is another guy that did that aswell. i had to go to extreme lengths. to get it sorta done

tmobile unlock app (pixel only) is the app you need to temp unlock the phone. if your goal is oem unlock, that requires permanent

that dialer code just checks that you are connected to the internet maybe googles server as well, but not sure.

I believe it does nothing but "check in" with a server to verify your connected to the internet

Okay I see what your saying I'm actually gonna do some more reading into that but I do know forsure it does exactly that check in to verify a connection to the internet and I assume by pinging googles server. The success notification is saying it got the ping back, meaning it's on the internet. Where the confusion I think your at is coming from is that the OEM unlock switch requires the internet purely to check if your phone can be unlocked or not (grayed out oem switch or not), so if it didn't instantly become available it is not going going to. When the device is fully paid off the switch, at least for t-mobile, will become available. But I appreciate you digging that up I have seen the title to that thread I just have never looked at it, knowing I'm more than likely **** out of luck, for now. New phone coming soon. I hope this makes sense

It's okay I went out of my way to do it lol and as for the phone then idk wtf happened something happened somewhere and at some point it ended up with me having it fully unlocked with $800 still left to pay .about to get a laptop soon to finally root. But on the T-Mobile app it says fully unlocked idk I'm happy. But now the 8 is coming out soon I have Jump! Upgrade so I can do it but I'm so cheap I held out for 4 years with my 4 non pro lmao
I have made some decent money this year so I swap around from my 7 pro, s22 ultra, and OnePlus 10 pro. I think I may trade in one for the 8 I just can't decide between getting rid of the 22 or the one plus. I'm leaning towards getting rid of the Samsung.
