I've been trying at this for a couple days now,no success but no brick either Every phone I've owned up to this one I've been able to root and flash recoveries and custom roms as I pleased but this phone been tricky for me so I need someone here maybe to tell me my next move... So I called TMobile and I got the rep to give me a permanent unlock for my phone and I checked the Tmobile unlock app and its says permanently unlocked ...So my question now is since I cant seem to get the adb to "fastboot oem unlock" to change the device state to unlocked in the bootloader without asking me for my unlock code ,how to I get this to work? Is the next step requesting the unlock code from Oneplus because I have all the info for the form for Oneplus but don't know how to find unlock code for the form.... Help me out guys ... Thanks

You now need to convert to Int. version, you can't "fastboot oem unlock" on T-Mo version without a stupid unlock token! Follow these instructions ===> https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/how-to-convert-tmobile-op7-to-t3935947
So I called TMobile and I got the rep to give me a permanent unlock for my phone and I checked the Tmobile unlock app and its says permanently unlocked
After this, you need to enable OEM unlock. See here.
Once you have enabled OEM Unlock under developer options, the fastboot oem unlock will work.

No it is not unlocked
Fair play mate, thought I'd throw that out there just in case.
I see you was asking on the Verizon bootloader unlock thread also so hopefully you get it unlocked again.
Good luck
Can someone explain whether process I go through on tmobile to unlock the bootloader? With the oneplus 8, I had to have 3 months paid off first and from there I could get the unlock code. Is it the same with note?
Thanks
I would also like to know that.
Hopefully someone can enlighten us on that
That was years ago particular with one plus, they don't have a say anymore with these phones.
You have to pay to get it unofficially unlocked.
Search the forums, I don't know if we're allowed to post pay for unlock link even if theyre on xda.
Also, if your phone is still sim locked and you unlock the bootloader, it will remain sim locked. Only T-Mobile can sim unlock it and if you do sim unlock after you unlock your bootloader, it will relock your bootloader and it's stuck as locked forever.
So I'd sim unlock your phone before paying to bootloader unlocking it.

Thanks coilbio,
That was helpful and appreciated.!
can you please clarify what do u mean by unlock?
If you need to unlock ur phone(network unlock) so that it can be used on any network then u can contact Tmobile to unlock your phone. You can contact Tforce on twitter to get ur phone unlocked. I was able to do that thro them.
Hi mindseye0803,
By unlock, I meant bootloader unlock,. My bad for not being specific on that.
Thanks for asking and hopefully, for help

Thanks bro, much appreciated.
New here.
I just switched from a Pixel 5.
Rooting was easy there, but I'm struggling with this phone.
So I bought an Unlock S22 Ultra from Swappa, Snapdragon version SMS908U.
My OEM Unlock option will not show up.
Am I screwed as far as rooting?
Also if not, can I just manually flash stock firmware to get the option back?
There is no OEM unlock option on US S908U/U1, and you cannot unlock the bootloader.
You can unlock the bootloader only on the European Exynos model, so if that's what you need, you should sell this phone and buy the Exynos one.
Gotcha! Thanks for the answer!
I Have been trying on the Motorola website and it says that the phone is ineligible to be unlocked when i put the Device ID on there site. I mean, why would the phone even have an OEM Unlock option if there was no way to unlock the bootloader? Just asking if anyone else has found a way around this?

Do you really have a moto edge+ 5g? And from ATT? And bootloader unlocked?
ATT doesn't sell your "BOOTLOADER UNLOCKABLE" MOTO EDGE+ 5G.
No single att branded Motorola phone is EVER eligible for official bootloader unlock.
If you want an unlocked bootloader you should only buy it directly from Motorola
Depends on who you bought it from. If you want an unlocked version always buy direct from manufacturer instead of a carrier or Amazon... They always Lock down anything they sell.

You can continue to claim you unlocked the bootloader of your att version moto g stylus 5g and call it a day.
att never sells MOTO Edge+ 5g. So either you don't actually own a moto edge+ 5g or you bought an unlocked version from somewhere else like bestbuy but not from ATT.
I am enjoying my bootloader unlocked moto g stylus 5g 2022 and you are begging others to help you with unlocking your att branded moto g stylus.

May you provide proof please?
Other than bought directly from motorola.com (unlocked) or some T-Mobile version, all other US variants cannot have bootloader unlocked.
Have a nice day.

ATT never sells moto edge+ 5g. There is no att variant moto edge+ 5g at all.
For Motorola phones, usually only unlocked version, t-mobile/metro, t-mobile MVNOs, boost mobile, us cellular and google fi versions are eligible for bootloader unlock. ATT, tracfone, ATT MVNOs, verizon and verizon MVNO versions are never eligible for bootloader unlock.
Visible version used to be fully unlocked version and eligible for bootloader unlock but after visible enforcing 60-day sim-lock policy, visible is shipping dedicated visible version or verizon version motorola phones and they are no longer eligible for bootloader unlock.

So sorry but you are sol! Never buy a device from a network provider because they are locked down! Always buy directly from device manufacturer if you want to unlock it!

I have always been able to unlock T-Mobile/Metro this is my first time dealing with a Verizon bootloader. So basically there is no way to accomplish this.
T-Mobile/ Metro by T-Mobile are bootloader unlock eligible almost immediately, though I have heard of people running into trouble with it before successfully unlocking a few days or a week later. T-Mobile requires the phone to be paid for before SIM unlocking for use with another carrier, and Metro requires you to keep service for 6 months before they'll allow you to network unlock.

Its because that feature is always built in to any android device, but it is up to who you bought it from that decides if they will allow you to unlock it or not!

try flasing wtih the tmobile file
download the coverter.bat to platform-tools folder and also extract the zip of the tmo firmware
click on convert.bat to creat a flashfile.bat
put your phone on fastboot or bootloader mode the same when you turn off you phone and hold volume down and powre together when you get to fastboot screen
just click the flashfile.bat
and it will flash your phone then try the above i mentioned to unlock bootloader instructions
thats how i did it
i have tmobile service so it worked out for me
maybe after unlock your bootloader you can reflash the same way for your service like
att, boost mobile, cricket, retus, tmobile or tracfone
again my phone is the xt-2131 version
also everytime you reflash something and have the option to go to the phone setting you have to oem unlock
and adb debuggin on so that you dont brick it
