Recently got moved to AT&T from tmobile and now AT&T is claiming my device in incompatible because they are opportunistic. I have all but one 3g band and one 4g band so it in theory should work aside from their device whitelist. If I could change the phone to a GM1917 there is a chance the network would accept it.
My phone is already rooted and I can easily flash a new rom but would like to know if doing so would make a difference before I go through that ordeal and loss of data.
Will a rom change what the phone thinks it is or not? Thanks for any help!
No. I have YAAP flashed and it still says GM1915. AT&T probably checks the IMEI and sees it's a GM1915 and denies you VoLTE. You could fool them by changing your IMEI but discussion of that is not allowed and IT IS HIGHLY ILLEGAL, so DO NOT do it.

Can I see some screenshots of AT&T working on LineageOS GM1915, currently planning to buy this version since its the only popular one on eBay and I am really considering on planning to get the OnePlus 7T since its Unlock versions can be find cheaper or the same price as the GM1915?

I would personally go with 7 Pro since it's slightly better phone and more importantly it seems more popular here in community.

ok, i just hope the sim works
It doesn't matter if the ROM shows a different model if the network doesn't see it that way. You still DON'T get VoLTE. Don't show me an enabled checkbox to prove it. I've been there and it doesn't work.

Hello all,
I'm on T-Mobile and trying to get away from the hell that is Samsung. I'm looking at OnePlus 7T T-Mobile, or 7 Pro.
It looks like the "root community" is more active on 7 Pro, and my fear is that the "7T T-Mobile" will give me trouble when unlocking bootloader and installing custom ROMs.
7 Pro seems to be very close in specs and has just looking at the ROMs section here makes it look like it has a more active community.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you.
If you mean 7 Pro (non carrier variant) then definitely go for it.
Not because there is more development, but also because I'd avoid any carrier variant of any phone.
If push comes to shove, you can always convert the TMO version to international. Easy and works like a charm.
Go for 7 Pro. Nothing beats the no notch full screen!!
Coming back to OnePlus with a OP 7 Pro from a Galaxy S10+ and I highly agree with the above statements. No carrier phones, OnePlus 7 Pro for the win!

Can you explain this a little? I'm actually looking at the 7 Pro on Swappa and the price difference from the TMobile version to the unlocked version is pretty significant. If I buy one that says T-Mobile unlocked, am I to assume it is sim-unlocked and can be converted?
I would only recommend doing so if and only if you are familiar with flashing rom/twrp/root and know what you are doing. If you have decided to buy a T-Mobile model, just make sure that it is fully network unlocked (you can test it with other carriers sim) and do the conversion first then unlock bootloader using the international model version method. I myself bought a refurbished T-Mobile version of oneplus 7pro for quite cheap and converted it to the international version. It has since then became an international model without any drawbacks. Dual sims is working, all custom roms are working and every mods that works on the global model will work on the T-Mobile converted model. The best part is after you convert to global, it will always stay global no matter which roms you flashed unless you revert it back.

Pretty much..I would check first before you decide to keep it. Also with the branded phones I would make sure it's not still under contract, stolen or not paid off. Something to think about
Also what the guy above me said is pretty much what I was going to say
The 7T Pro doesn't have a TWRP that can flash to the system. So you're stuck with using fastboot to flash ROMs. If you don't wanna do that, buy a 7 Pro

Yes I've been flashing since the original Droid. Haven't had a phone I could flash since my pixel xl though. I'll make sure and get an unlocked t-mobile phone. There are no limitations after the conversion? I feel like I was reading people who converted the 6T had issues with safetynet and nfc payments. All clear here?
Thanks guys. Got a sim unlocked t-mobile 7 pro coming from swappa.
Thinking of purchasing the 7 Pro GM1925 model unlocked, only question is will I get software updates from oneplus or will this be carrier controlled? I know this is the sprint model unlocked and I plan to use on tmobile. Just don't want to be getting updates 3-6 months delayed is the fear.
I was facing this... really looking forward for the answers

The best option to allay all fears is to debrand the phone even if it's unlocked by sprint et at. There are numerous posts on how to do them. BTW, why do you want to buy an unlocked sprint version when you can get a pure OP7Pro on Amazon?

Price is the reason, the gm1925 (sprint unlocked) are heavily discounted right now. Whereas the gm1910 international versions are more expensive.

Because it is literally the same phone. I could not find any difference. Updates from tmo or from op. You pick. Buy the phone on layaway from tmo or buy rn from Oneplus.

Correct but it's still the same phone. There is nothing special about the t-mobile one. They advertised like the tmo one had better 5g capabilities, but it is the same. I have an 8t bought from oneplus and I use it on TMobile, compared to a t-mobile employees' who I rooted and poured over, no discernible difference other than ram size and storage but none of that is anything important in terms of is it 2 diff devices?? Nope.

Oneplus 8T
I buy a oneplus and a pixel every year. The pixels suck anymore compared to oneplus. Buy oneplus.
The T-Mobile version has sim slot 2 disabled and no assigned imei for it. Might still work once converted but only one sim active at a time. AOD is also non existent until future update or conversion. There's also more steps to unlocking the bootloader. It requires sim unlock and you need to submit a code to oneplus to get the unlock.bin but their site is bugging out for now. Sounds like it'll be fixed within the next week though.
Edit: the T-Mobile version KB2007 is still the hardware equivalent of unlocked US KB2005. Only actual difference is software limitations. Once we can convert firmware its just another KB2005 hardware amd software wise.

What the heck are you talking about, the phone is great, battery is great (81% left after busy day), speed is blazing, camera is great, little to know issues (gmail freezes and no swipe down to answer) - surely not worth crying about and from what I read the update has no significant value - return your phone if you are so displeased with OnePlus.

That is a T-Mobile problem...not OnePlus! For whatever reason you chose to purchase the T-Mobile version of the phone along with all the consequences.

I too wonder why it is taking so long for the unlocked phones to receive the last few updates...but then again I'm happy that my phone is working great...and let all the other countries be the beta testers and squash the bugs...then they can release a truly stable version for me!

Because we have full zips for Euro and OTAs will actually work. Converting to global would require the same reserve.img dumping as T-Mobile variants and break OTAs without tons of effort. Global will hopefully use OnePlus servers for the next OTA.
For now, converting to Euro is best for most 8T variants. Modem works perfectly with whatever bands your phone's hardware support.
Google delivers Android 13 December 2022 update for Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro
Google has announced a major feature update for Pixel smartphones running Android 13. As of the December 2022 update, the likes of the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro support a dedicated reader mode and can share digital car keys with other compatible smartphones, among other changes.
www.notebookcheck.net
I put mine on the beta channel release. Coming from a P6P, using straight talk, it would not accept the sim.
Called Straight talk, which was useless. They said I had to buy a new sim card. Saw on a thread here that the
beta channel rom fixed it. Sure enough! After reboot, the sim card worked!
I was expecting 5g update, disappointing...

I wouldn't hold your breath. They either chose horrible hardware, don't know how to fix it, or won't because we will buy a new Pixel. With that being said, I actually think that the 7 Pro is an improvement over the 6 pro. My battery and performance is dramatically improved because of the updated Tensor chip and I don't have the cell standby bug that plagued me in the 6 pro.

This isn't the full release notes.
That article from notebookcheck.net referencing the Google Blog only concerns the "Android Feature Update", which is for GMS Android users. There is also a "Pixel Feature Drop" which Pixel users will likely get tomorrow. Plus there will likely be other "fixes" and whatnot.

I am in 5G unsupported country and I am using physical SIM I have tried to disable DSDS but it didn't seem to stick. I have tried with stock and beta QPR1 same result. Which custom kernel would you recommend? I think the issue is with the radio and the Samsung Shannon 5300G. I am not sure if there is a radio firmware I could try.

I fail to understand the complaints from people who live in "unsupported" countries!
Why would you even consider buying ANY phone that is unsupported in any way?
The fault is yours not Googles! YMMV

Probably because they wanted a pixel but Google only officially sells phones in like 4 countries (exaggerating but probably not by much). I want phones available outside of the USA all the time but my wonderful carrier (verizon) and to a degree the other carriers as well suck and want big money to certify the ability to use their towers (bands). Stuck mainly with iSheep, Samdung, One Plus (already settled) and Google (constant hardware problems).
It will be difficult for me to make you understand anything since you fail to understand simple things like why anyone would pick a Google phone instead of another brand. Anyway I had Nexus and Pixel phones in the past and they have worked just fine. I was very well aware 5G and VoLTE don't work and I was not after these features. I would be perfectly fine with just 4G. Mine Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 2 XL worked flawlessly. I might have a faulty hardware I am not sure at this point. If you could not help me at least don't blame me for my choices, the money I have spent are mine not yours. Like I have said I know since the beginning some of the feature would not work and this was a risk I was willing to take since I wanted a "clean" android and rootable + unlocked bootloader (there are not many phone manufacturers offering such features). I was not expecting the Pixel to not support any well established telecom standards. Aside from that I live in Europe and I bought the phone from neighboring country. It is not from Japan or US/Canada with different bands.
@xpact , it might be your phone or possibly faulty modem hardware. I am in the US using the 7P7 (rooted, unlocked) without any issues (I keep 5G off) 99% of the time. Once in a while I have to restart my phone or turn airplane mode on and off because I would randomly lose service. Its pretty rare though and even less now after the November update.
Question for the group and I hope I'm in the right spot. I got my 7 pro last week. So I went to the Factory image page. I'm on Verizon so I took the verzon update. Now I see a update just for global. Should I wait on the Verizon or can I just install the global one? I'm new to Pixel experience.

I'm in Europe too and have the p7p from Germany, all works fine, no faulty hardware at all. Where did you buy your phone? I'm on stock firmware but had rooted it and there was also no problems, I often think to myself wtf you are always doing with your phones?

I bought it from Germany as well ) The previous pixel I had I bought it from UK and the Nexus 6P from UK as well. But the ones from UK I did not bought on first date but few months after they might had different hardware modem revisions.
