Hi guys I have a OnePlus 7 Pro 5G im in the UK and my phone is totally stock. I've just read the guide for unlocking the bootloader and it mentions the phone needs to be SIM unlocked. My phone is locked to EE as it's the 5G version does that mean I carnt unlock the bootloader and install custom ROMs ?
Similar to how the 6T was done you could flash the build with a modified program. This let you bypass getting an unlock token from T-Mobile. Can you do this with the 8 or 8T as well?

Bring the program over. Let's check it out. On the surface no. We have to request SIM unlock in order to bootloader unlock. I don't know any program that would bypass the bootloader unlock. But I'm TMO running global 11.0.2.2.IN21AA rooted. Happy modding!

I know on the 7t pro McLaren they used an altered msm to somehow force your device to allow bootloader unlock without the need for the sim unlock and token portion of the process. Not sure how it was done though, or if it would even be possible on this device.

So I'm familiar with the OnePlus 7 pro scene, imagine reason is same for 7T pro. One of the beta builds for the 7 pro unlocked the bootloader. This was not intentional by OnePlus and is how you could get around carrier locked bootloader's. There was no such mistake on any of the OnePlus 8 builds so you do need to get carrier to unlock your device before you can bootloader unlocked.
Hope this helps! Happy new years!
Is there any threads on possibly unlocking One plus 9 from T-Mobile?

Hi, yes unlock but unlock the bootloader. How can I unlock the sim ?
because even though i changed and i read that changing to a global version was not going to unlock the sim.
in the same way now my oneplus 9 tmobile. It is in global version but with the network locked problem.

Specifically:
Unlock your SIM. Some options here
Finding a sympathetic rep to unlock your device. I used the I'm a developer and need the device unlocked for work purposes and took 2 agents before I got mine unlocked.
Finding an awesome XDAer who has the capability to do it, such as https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ng-service-oneplus-samsung-google-lg.4231597/ (never used this service, just an example but he seems active and still unlocking)
Paying a (trusted) 3rd party service. I never used them, YMMV
T-Mobile's official policy of waiting 40 days and paying off any balance on an EIP.
