International from OnePlus webstore: root before Verizon activation or after? - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Searched forum but found no thread dealing with this.
My first OnePlus phone (7 Pro) will be delivered tomorrow and I'm currently stuck with VZW as my work pays for it. I'll be taking the phone into a local Verizon Wireless store to get a new SIM card (current one dates back, IIRC, to my HTC Thunderbolt; then I cut it to mini, and later to micro as my phones progressed) under the BYOD program.
Should I root it before taking it to Verizon, afterwards, or does it even matter?
Thank you for the advice!

LOL. Anyone have any advice?

Shouldn't matter, but I'd wait and make sure service is working with phone stock/as-recurved from seller first before modding.

But when I click on it it says this.
What do?
i saw some forum's answers that it just maybe some old sim card -
i was adviced to change my sim card that was made back in 2002 for a new one -
not sure what may have been changed - but since all the phone numbers and messages are in phone (and google) memory
you risk nothing, and this sim change should be free.
i've already ordered mine and it awaits for me in cellular operator office
Hmm I was hoping that a trip to tmobile could be avoided but I guess if that's what I have to do.

Got a fake j7 pro, how do I get the most out of it?

I received a fake j7 pro as a gift from my grandmother, she bought on the streets thinking it was a good deal. I don't want to tell it was not and already accepted the fake phone, so now I'm trying to get the most out of it.
The specs of the phone are here

the phone has a custom 6.1 android version, and I thought flashing an older version to get rid of the potential threat of having this one, and to run smoothly. A quick search tells me to go jellybean.
Should I flash another rom in this device? Can you recommend any? Thank you!

Mobile SIM cards from t-mobile and its subsidiary Ultra mobile are available in the online marketplace.
These prepaid cellphone cards rent for $3 a month and are already activated.. Does anyone know if these SIM cards can activate the t-mobile oneplus 9?
You need to get it unlocked. I know there is someone on these forums who does that, but the phone still needs to be on someone's tmobile account for him to do it.

A136u locked after update, what do I do?

Hi,
I had a Samsung A13 5G from T-mobile for about 8 months. Back in July 2022 I paid someone online to unlock the phone and he did. The only issue was that I had to enter 16 zeros every time I turned the phone off. Not big deal.
A couple of months ago, after an update the 16 Zeros code stopped working.
Now I contacted some of the people that unlock phones and they say that it cannot be unlock because it is Bit 3 and it is unsupported.
When I start the phone in Odin I see Carrier ID: XAA
Can anybody help please!

) I powered straight to recovery settings to clear cache and factory restore that way. It is now frp locked and he hasn't used it since 2017 and can not remember his old code or which account was even on the dang thing. I'm not trying to waste more time with it tbh, but he's now upset that a phone which DID work (even though he hasn't used it in years) doesn't work and it's my fault. So to help my friend now, I could really use some advice? Or should I just give him $50 and call it a wash.
