I've created a TMO to Global MSM conversion, but lack a OP9 to test with. I am looking for volunteers to help test the build.
You will lose all data, so back up everything.
Be aware that this, like any other dev project, can possibly brick you phone. If you are uncomfortable, please don't apply.
Please PM me if available.

Do you need to unlock the bootloader, and the SIM network. I tried to update ColorOS and I have already bricked it. Now this one has been replaced with more than 20 dollars, and there is no SIM unlock yet.

No sim unlock or bootloader unlock.
Can you explain how it was bricked and what happened when you tried to MSM to stock?

After I ROOT, I tried to modify the phone device information to LE2110 version, then use the ColorOS downgrade package and put it in the root directory, it can be updated, but after the update, restart the phone, only a black screen, only a slight cycle Vibration. I tried all the boot modes, but couldn't enter, including boot loader, recovery mode, flastboot mode, EDL mode, all of them could not start. It is estimated that the BOOT partition is destroyed. Try to use T-MOBILE MSM tool 9008 mode to reload. It indicates that sahara communication failed. In the end, there is no way, only to contact T-MOBILE customer service to change the phone. The customer service does not charge transportation fees, but it needs to charge 21 US dollars for the replacement of the mobile phone.
you can sim unlock for free with tmo even if you owe on the devices
just contact them on facebook /twitter/ or corporate
super easy
but o always recomand unlocking bootloader
I am game, pm sent.

yes! My friend's Not the TMO version can be updated to coloros! But there is no Internet! The impatient returned to Europe.
Anyway! It has been replaced with a new one! Now wait to unlock the SIM network and boot loader! Don't try it again until there are no more official coloros resources available! After the partition is destroyed, MSM tools can't save it!

^This. You need to sim unlock before converting to international, or you will be unable to unlock the bootloader and have OEM unlocking. At least until they fix the MSM to be able to skip sim unlocking.

Yes, you can try it that way. If the device is already fully paid off you can also simply contact Tmobile and they will be able to sim unlock it for you already as well, or if you haven't paid off and want to chance it, you can try contacting them on twitter or through the tmobile app and try to get the customer service rep to unlock it. Though if you haven't paid it off it's probably easier and faster to DM the OP from that thread.

I have the international version and am also stuck with the greyed out OEM Unlocking option. My bootloader is also still locked. Any help would be very much appreciated. I have tried using fastboot to oem unlock but I get this error
FAILED (remote: Please enable OEM unlocking in developer options first)
finished. total time: 0.007s
It was on a Chinese ROM before and I did use https://oxygenos.oneplus.net/Fulldowngrade_wipe_18821_190425_0253_user_fix_revision_MP_release.zip to downgrade so I could switch to the English ROM.
I also have a one plus 7 pro. It has been carrier unlocked but still the OEM unlock is greyed out. It is running Android 10. Is there a way to 'ungrey' the OEM unlock option? Thx
Do a search for this "The T-Mobile OnePlus 7 Pro’s bootloader can be unlocked by flashing Android Q" and fallow the instructions. Instruction are on xda.
There is no need to unlock the sim on the T-Mobile phone to unlock the bootloader.
Phone needs to be on the international firmware. This can be done with the patched msm tool. Then downgrade to android development preview 3 using local upgrade on phone. Unlock via fastboot and finally root and install a working rom or do the rollback to android p via local upgrade. Search for the guide and fallow the instructions. It really simple.
Kind of related. I converted my t mobile oneplus 7 pro to the international version and am eligible for a sim unlock. I tried to do it over chat but they said since it's not their version of android I would have to do a factory reset (which wouldn't convert it back to t-mobile stock) in order to sim unlock it, does anyone know how to sim unlock it on the international version with t-mobiles help. I would have thought t-mobile could just do it on their end but I guess not, and I guess they are kind of idiots over there to, because initially they had no idea what i meant when i said i converted it to the international version (heck they still didn't understand that I changed the firmware/ROM) so resetting it wouldn't make it a t-mobile phone again.

There's no login info. Just select "Other".
Changed the download link to GDrive.
Thank you
is there a steps on how to do this? first time looking at this msm tool.
will this work for software version 11.2.5.5LE53CB
Your current version does not matter. This will flash phone to point that it was when it came out of the box. then you can start over.
Do i lose unlock after convercion
How do you back up the T-Mo modems without going thru the T-Mo bootloader token unlock? I want to try going back to the T-Mo modems to see if they resolve the issues, and then back them up when to reflash when I go back to the EU load.
Thanks!

Well, I guess it ended up not mattering much in the end. At least for what I was trying to do.
I'm finding T-Mo's service to just be complete crap, and I've determined it's not the phone. I moved 8 lines over from AT&T. Half were BYOD (all unlocked AT&T Samsung devices, and my son's unlocked OP9), and the other half were Samsung and OP phones bought from T-Mo. Everyone's experiencing bad call quality and coverage issues. Both my family and in-laws live within a mile from known T-Mo towers where we live. I live in a major metro area, my in-laws in a rural area. My parents live in a medium sized city. It's gotten unbearable, and at times, my wife and I have had to resort to texting due to the call quality just being so bad. Cutting out, garbled, etc.
In-laws also have T-Mo's home internet and are having issues with that.
I don't get it despite everything good I've read about T-Mo. None of us had these issues with AT&T.
I'm going to try to work it out with T-Mo, but at least for the time being, I'll just go back to the European ROM. There's no difference in the call quality anyway, and at least there I have root again.
If i flash the T-mo firmware to a global model, will I be unable to unlock the bootloader simply with the adb command, or will I have to go through all the hoops as if I bought the phone directly from t-mobile?

I'm gonna use the T-Mobile sim card on a global version of the phone. So theoretically the phone would already have been sim unlocked out of the box. What I'm asking is, if i choose to use the T-Mobile msm on the unlocked global model, will it carrier lock me in? If not that means all i have to do is go to developer options and use the unlock command, right?

Hi everybody
I'm struggling with pixel 3 OEM enabling which is already grayout and carrier locked issue
I done anything but this thing is still locked
Is there anyway to unlock it? Or cross rom to global to unlock it?
Its looks like verizon
Thanks
Unfortunately a Verizon branded Pixel is not unlockable, and it is not possible to reflash the global firmware because flashing anything requires an unlocked bootloader.
If you aren't sure it's Verizon, you can try this:
Remove the SIM
Factory reset the device
Skip through setup, make sure you connect to a wireless network
Manually set the clock 1 week ahead
Use *#*#checkin#*#* to force a checkin
Leave the device overnight and see if OEM Unlocking is toggleable
Again, if this is for sure a Verizon device, unlocking the bootloader is not possible.

Again, if this was possible, we wouldn't be having this conversation. As with most Qualcomm devices, the Pixel 3 has a QPST mode - for Qualcomm Product Support Tool. This tool is not freely available. As far as I know, it can only be used to write binary images to the chips as one might when attempting to resurrect the device; it cannot be used to dump the contents of a device. This idea has been explored before to no success. Unlocking the Verizon bootloader simply isn't possible, and there simply isn't any way around it.

You could if we had the binary files for use with QPST, but we don't. A bricked device can only be recovered by someone with both the necessary tools and binary images, which again are not available.

If you need to go back to the T-Mobile version, there is a separate MSM tool to do that, it will also relock the bootloader at the same time for warranty purposes.

Flashing to a different firmware does not alter the SIM lock/unlock state. If your device is SIM locked to T-Mobile, it will remain SIM locked to T-Mobile after flashing to the Global, EU, or other regional firmware. T-Mobile devices can only be SIM unlocked on the T-Mobile firmware.

Pretty much t mobile is your only hope. Maybe paid services Which you will not find or get any help on here.
These phones will frequently work with t-mobile resellers too, but no guarantee. You might consider mint mobile.

You can get bootloader unlock this way and then flash global to it with the msm tool in that link.
T mobile is a bit of a pain to get the unlock code, you have to get a number from the phone using adb and then submit a request on their website using the serial and that number... A week or so later they will send you a unlock code that can be used in adb and then the normal process to unlock after that.
