Ok when you flash the msm, it locks the bootloader so you gotta use the bin file that you got.to unlock the bootloader from fastboot then it will be greyed out.

Yes but you need to have your device sim unlocked first before you apply. You can get that through TMobile. Also check out the thread of the person helping with unlocking the sim.

i cant get the unlock code from fastboot. maybe there is a workaround like with the op7p where oneplus released a beta with an unlocked bootloader. i have the patched msm.exe from then but it wont load the .ops file.
is it possible that if i flash the eu or international .ops file it will allow me to unlock the bootloader?
Not that I know of yet. If you can't get the unlock code, most likely you're not sim unlocked.

just spoke with tmobile and they said its not blocked and ready to be activated. also that without the tmobile unlock app i would have to test it with a new sim card. think it might be a problem if someone unlocked then factory reset before they sold it?

also i looked up tforce on twitter but there's only 1 person with that @ and they dont seem like theyre active

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 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").

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..

Well there is that and then there's the fact that the pixel is carrier unlocked. Sounds like this guy had no clue what he was doing with this phone. Also like to know what "box" you hooked the phone up to
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.
Sorry guys, but unlocking bootloader through adb and fastboot didn't worked.It asked to unlock bootloader with yes (vol up) or no (vol down) and i pressed vol up, but it failed instantly and it let me to the screen with normal reboot, recovery and bootloader options (volume keys don't work for some reason on that screen so i pressed power and volume keys at the same time 10-15 sec to power off).
Without unlocked bootloader, we can't have root, custom recovery and custom ROMs.
That means that unofficial way doesn't work so we need to wait Nokia to give us codes (like in Huawei phones) or provide a official way of unlocking bootloader.
EDIT: Now is possible to unlock bootloader.

4. Reboot and install Magisk Manager Apk
5.Enjoy Root
6.Profit
Credits

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.

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'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.

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

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

No, these commands are for the dangerous ability to flash & erase criticals like modem.
The code to unlock BL is:
fastboot oem unlock

---------- 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:

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:

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)

I dunno if BL can be downgraded bc OP7P starts on android 9 rom which has security patches which prevent flashing to modem.

I used cellunlocker dot net and they got it unlocked in 7 days. It's about 45 bucks
so I have the following Scenario, I was able to use the temporary unlock on the Tmobile app, I put another sim and it works, I have read this is only for a month, but if I switch to the international version will the unlock stays? have anybpody tried that before?
