msm tool for 8t? for switching from tmo to international - OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers

Is there anyone working on this? I'd like to help if I can, I'm not expert but I want to see if I can contribute

The MSMdownload tool, if that's what you're asking about, is rolled up in this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8t/how-to/op8t-unbrick-tool-to-restore-device-to-t4180837

I successfully used several times yesterday to get my 8T out of trouble.

No! This MSM tool is just to restore to stock TMO build, for example if it bricked or if you wanna return the device after rooting or switching to international (whenever those will be available) this tool doesn't do what you want yet
Edit: I just realized he even linked you a different one, this is for the international version if it got bricked or anything to restore, there is also a TMO MSM tool, but as I said before there isn't yet a tool that lets you convert from TMO to International, I'm also waiting for it

Any idea if that would allow bootloader unlock without the sim unlock?

I'm not sure, but if I remember correctly in the past years that was the case, but I can't speak on something I'm not 100% sure

Out of curiosity, can I grab full ROM in order to grab boot.img?

MsmDownloadTool hunting

Is it time to start guessing what the URL on https://s3.amazonaws.com/oneplussupport/ will be?
My best guess was https://s3.amazonaws.com/oneplussupport/OP7P/guacamole_21.O.07_190512.rar but no luck.
Edit: Found the EU one! https://s3.amazonaws.com/oneplussupport/OP7Pro/guacamole_21_E.08_190515.rar
OnePlus is definitely using this as the root directory: https://s3.amazonaws.com/oneplussupport/OP7Pro/
Does this mean we can unlock the T-Mobile variant with this?

Yes, this program will literally transform the T-Mobile variant into the international version you can buy from OnePlus directly. There is literally no difference between the two, you get the same OTAs as international version just as if you bought it from OnePlus
Holy hell. I found it.

Has a password, though.
But now we know the filename. This one is apparently for 9.5.4 on the EU model (GM1913). Can't find one for the other builds. Maybe it works for US/Global/India.

I believe the 6t tmobile version after the conversion could get over the air update. U have to.inject the updates manually. Quote me if im wrong but that was one of thw reason why i didnt convert my 6t.

U should have no issues with OTA, the tool turns ur phone back to as it was in the box, it relock bootloader, u roots and stock recovery, now there are some out there that could be modded to not delete userdata and no relock bootloader which means no incremental OTAs

No but we can at least unlock the bootloader on the T-Mobile version
Permanent SIM unlock can probably be done with fastboot commands after a bootloader unlock.
I should have the US (OnePlus Store, not T-Mobile) MSMdownloadtool tomorrow, with the password. Stay tuned on that front.

Thats only thing I want.
I wont have the tMobile one im in the UK and getting 5G variant and it might be sim locked but want to unlock bootloader and not wait 6 months before they give me unlock code.
I just called OP for the literally the 10th time today.
I told them I don't care about my warranty.. I just want the msm tool and unlock. Bin generator. They said that their technical support team is working on it. They also said they will be sending me an email with either the link for the MSM tool either today or tomorrow.
I doubt they will just give a token generator out but once we Hve our hands on the msm tool. We can sort some things out.

OnePlus 7 Pro (T-Mobile) Android Q Beta

Can the Beta posted on the OnePlus forum be installed on the T-Mobile locked version? Also if it is able to be installed does the rollback method still work?

It's more to ensure that if you run into any issues or brick your device, having your phone and bootloader unlocked will give you a way to restore your phone..

Looks like it's time to try and convince T-Mobile to unlock it (I paid outright) so worth a shot. They unlocked my 6T same day.

Someone told me it's not possible to flash the OnePlus unlocked version on the T-Mobile version because the modem firmware is different. I know the 6T was able to be flashed to the unlocked firmware after it was SIM/Bootloader unlocked correct?

That's for a Pixel. The OnePlus betas are unstable and incomplete. Also no recovery mode built-in.

how do you convert from the TMobile ROM to the international ROM?

Title says all
Right now you can't. But it's being worked on. Patience is needed. As soon as it's achieved there will be a post about it.

What? If you have a T-Mobile branded 7 Pro and use the Msm tool to convert you don't need the token right? I understand we are still waiting on the tool to come out, but you said you are getting your token soon and you would only use that to unlock the bootloader on the T-Mobile firmware.

Gotcha, I'm on the same page now.
Coming from the experience of the support for the 6t its only a matter time before the same tool is released for 7 pro.. I don't see the need to get it unlocked through tmobile and or token, just wait for the conversion tool.. It will be here sooner than you think..

msm coverion tool for converting the TMobile oneplus 7 pro to international software.

Is there a msm tool kit like on the oneplus 6t TMobile where it converted the oneplus 6t to international software. Really need it now I broker my phone and it keeps going off
A couple of us are working on it. I should have the TMO MSM Tool for the stock firmware by the weekend.

Yeah, that is already available. You also don't need a msm tool to bootloader unlock.
Nevermind. At first you say you want to convert to international then make a comment that you dont want the tmobile one.

If your bootloader is locked what happened that it won't boot? You can't flash anything to a locked bootloader.

Are you sure it's not just in download mode (I think that's what it is called)? I had it happened on my 6t, I thought it was toast but it was just in that mode.
Try holding volume down and power 10 to 20 seconds and if that doesn't work try holding volume up and power. Try different combinations of the buttons.
If it vibrates after any of these combinations try to power it up normally.

i swear....i dont get why people dont know what they are getting themselves into and then expect others to solve their problems for them.

Did you get sim unlocked first? If you did then should work if not then you need to.
Lol, why all the hate. This is a community for development and cooperation, not discontent. I look forward to when the tool is released. It'll only be a little longer.

Yes. There is an MSM Tool in the guides section of the 7 Pro forums of XDA. there are actually 3, but you're looking for the one to revert back to stock T-Mobile firmware.

Yep, it's possible to go back to stock. But I've been with T-Mobile for years and have turned in every phone I've had rooted with twrp installed. They've never given me any issues.

If I recall correctly, it'll even relock the bootloader, though you could just relock it yourself before using the tool to make sure. There's no flags tripped or anything like Samsung's Knox counter.
