I'm sorry, are you saying you have a OnePlus 8T+5G with T-Mobile USA and you've somehow converted to international? There's no tool available yet. How did you do this?
There's no MSM Tool out (unless you've developed an unreleased one?), and the T-Mobile bootloader can't be unlocked yet because OnePlus' bootloader token site is broken for the time being.

Is there anyone currently working on the conversion tool? How about a way to unlock bootloader without sim unlock? Just interested in wether there's progress being made.

Umm how? No publicly available MSM conversion tool is yet available, are you hinting us that you are testing now a MSM tool and it will be released shortly?

I'm sorry I thought it had already been posted. Mine was used to test. I know it will be made public. I responded to the post originally to let anyone wondering know it will be possible, in case that was the only thing keeping anyone from getting the device.

So now that the beans are out of the box, let's hear more, #1 does it need to be bootloader Unlocked or we can drop OP broken Unlock Token site and go straight to conversion?
#2 how does it work? Are you getting the OP OTA like the original international version?
#3 what's the ETA when it will be available for the public?

From my experience had to unl bl then cross flashed. And yes afterward local update is now in my settings and u was able to take latest OTA sent out afterward(11.0.2.3 I think)
But I think the reason it has not been released yet is bcuz the bl unl is still a little sketchy and needs more perfecting.
When I first read this thread I just wanted fellow users who were skeptical of getting the 8t(tmo) to not be held back bcuz of no chance of being able to achieve bl unl/crossflashing/root on tmo varient. I will find out when this will be published

You can't Bootloader Unlock without the stupid Token and you can't get the token since OP site is drunk, I wish this comes out pretty soon and we will be able to just avoid OP token site and just convert it into international version.
Thanks for the information when you have a ETA I'll appreciate if you let us know.

Is there anything I can do to help with the conversion testing. I have my phone SIM unlocked and OEM unlocking is available in my settings.
Here's the thing on converting Tmo to Intl
Yes it requires a bootloader unlock.
Yes it's possible to unlock the bootloader
Yes it can be done without a token (however this is very hacky and isn't anywhere near ready for public use)
Yes some people have it done for testing
No it's not public yet.
No I didn't find or make it
Theres a lot going into this right now with limited options of how to proceed with unlocking. That paired with no twrp makes things kind of a nightmare to deal with.
unfortunately I can't give an excess of information, as im only testing/developing, however I will confirm these things for you.

Just FYI, it seems OnePlus' token/unlock site is working now. Late last night I successfully submitted my token, and I believe a few others were able to do the same.
The thing is though, it says I know have to sit tight and wait one to two weeks for an email with the token...but I'll call this progress, none the less.

That it definitely does! T-Mobile also makes it easy to pay off early as well.
I managed to get Affirm, oneplus's financing lender, on the phone. I spent a good hour, advocating my case. I told them that I would have love to buy the phone outright, if I had the means. Rep said the underwriters make the final decision. I argued further and stated that if I knew what Affirm looked for in their lending criteria, I could make an educated business decision, still said no.
With that, went to TMobile, threw down my down payment.

Has anyone been able to sim unlock the Bell Sensation?
Sites that have the code for T-Mobile Sensation don't seem to have it for the Bell version. I actually got the Bell Sensation 5 days back and been trying to unlock it since. If someone knows where to get it unlocked, please let me know! I know the code would be available shortly (hopefully soon, but I want to know if anyone has been successful and where)
These are the sites I've used and every one of them has been unsuccessful:
1. unlocking .com
2. gsmliberty .com
3. mobileincanada .com
4. htcimeiunlock .com
5. htcsimunlock .com(took my money, did not result in code and never refunded it back, I've contacted them 4 times and they never reply, its been like 3 days now, you might wanna be careful with these guys)
6. cellunlocker .net (I didn't try to unlock my sensation with these guys, but tried to unlock a different phone and they sent me the wrong code. I asked for a refund, they asked me to provide them video proof, i did that and its been 7 months no refund)
7. cellunlock .net (different site from cellunlocker)
I have checked on more websites that I can't remember at the moment.

What's the first IMEI digits?
Does Your HTC IMEI# Start With "3577790" or "3578410" or "3526660" or "3539230" or "3538330" or "3589910" or "3523140" ??? They can do it... supposedly.

I know this is off topic but can you confirm if your bell sensation has a camera lens flush to the casing, like it is not recessed. I was at the source looking at a dummy phone and it has a lens flush with the casing.

oh god, i have a feeling for the next few weeks the sensation thread is going to be spammed hard by bell users having problems with their sensations :/
unlock codes will take a couple days for the BELL sensation, as bell is NOT a fan of their exclusive branded hardware going to other carriers, even if you buy off contract or in another store
But I can't wait a couple of days, I have to use it now!! Just kidding, was actually hoping I'd be able to unlock today, guess Ill have to wait. Hope we wont have to wait too long.

I just emailed him, lets see what happens. He said he did 2 bell's yesterday successfully and one did not work.
Kijiji Guy can't do it for a week. If you know someone with a bell account they will do the unlock for $75 bucks, seems like the only option right now.

I've never actually owned a device on launch, so is that generally the rule? Unlock codes usually take up to a week to obtain?

I mean, it was only a half-truth, but it was still a response nonetheless.
I posted some supporting comments in a couple of Facebook posts about releasing source code. I went back today and it looks like they deleted all of the original posts.
Yeah mine was deleted too.
Looks like we're gonna have to drown them in comments. I just got my GS3 but I'm willing to support my fellow XDA'ers. This is the reason I avoided the One X, even though it was like $100 cheaper than an S3. Simple as that. HTC underestimates the number of modders who buy phones based on whether or not the bootloader is unlocked. It's time to show them.

Samsung seems to REALLY embrace the modding community while HTC seems to just give it lip service.

Can't they be sued since they are in violation of GPL?

They aren't "yet" the GPL states source must be released in a "timely" manner. and timely is not exactly defined.

190$ just to be able to root it? You can clearly forget ROM development on the P20 Pro and not even that would makes the price reasonable
No point, the phone is hardly worth a free bootloader unlock as there is nothing you can do with it.

Good news but Jesus fkn Christ, 190 ? What yen? That's absolutely taking the piss.
I'm one month away from contract ending. Going to give this to my mum, shell like the camera.
OnePlus 8 for me.
One thing to note though, if funky has unlock codes then others should too.
I have the direct number for someone who did have unlock codes so I'll reach out to him and see if he has any..prices are a lot lower..
There are still some decent ROMs for the P20 Pro, AOSIP, Lineage.
Which is more than enough for most people..
No idea what this would mean if you went to EMUI 10 though..
The chap I have seen says they haven't got codes so I would not recommend paying anything
He has said that they have had a lot of luck with unlocking the bootloader via a tool.

Just chatted with a Samsung employee who assured me Best Buy could unlock the bootloader on the U1 devices (mine is SM-S908UZWFXAA specifically) and created a ticket. I shall follow-up when I have time and a day off work to test this out.
He said purchasing it from them was not a prerequisite either, as I did not. I'm still a little apprehensive about it. Does anyone have any experience with this?
This sounds like someone answering a question they don't quite understand to me. But who knows. Considering how many Best Buy employees there are, you would think we would have heard of this by now. But I'm interested nonetheless lol.
Probably thought you meant sim unlock.

Not something Best Buy would do. Also there is no Bootloader unlock on the Snapdragon models.
