As stated in that article "This method will not provide you with a T-Mobile SIM unlock."
If you want it sim unlocked you need to contact T-Mobile.

Not that I know of, but you can read/ask here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/t-mobile-bootloader-unlock.4181339/
I would recommend buying a non locked version though. Especially if you live in the eu.

Yes, would suggest buying unlocked Tmob variant unless the post above can do it. But you cant be sure until you get your phone. So..

Was anyone able to unlock your S6?
I bought mine in Germany and it is locked to all of the European networks.
I've order an unlock code from 5 different unlocking sites but no one can unlock it yet.
I'm in the exact same situation, and would love to know how.
someone??
same problem here with g920f from usa.
can you tell us from where you tried to buy the codes? (so we won't buy from them)
I successfully unlocked my S6 Edge through cellunlocker.net
which module do you have?
we need to buy manufacturer code or all usa network from there?

Hi there,
I was able to unlock mine two weeks ago using www.unlockunit.com. It wasn't locked on a German network, but it worked. You can try them too, maybe it works.

your device was region locked or carriar locked?
Hi Everyone !
I have been using my cellphone already for almost 2 months with no issues but for some reason my country has an "Homologation" process thing. Basically only the OP7P GM1917 variant has been registered as allowed in country and because of that they do not allow having another variants right now. So today suddenly I lost my service and after doing some research it seems like my cellphone variant is not yet allowed. As far as I know, the cellular network bands are correct since I double checked that before buying it. Is there any possible way to convert my variant 1910 into the 1917 one?
Thanks!
I think you can try this method :

Do I need to have my cellphone rooted for doing this?
Yes you need to root and unlock bootloader.
I'm in USA and on Verizon. No matter how much digging on the forums I'm not sure I can ever be sure which exact version of the 8t would be the carrier unlocked international version with available bootloader unlock and root available. Hoping someone could provide with that info, thanks!
If you buy it directly from OP you should be good to go. Just make sure it's not been purchased through T-Mobile and hardware model KB2007.
KB2005

Why TMobile? Is there not an equilvalent, for example to my V30 that was a non-carrier branded unlocked international model? And Sykojoe mentioned the KB2005, which one is that? I'll admit I haven't even looked up yet.

I'm saying if you are NOT a T-Mobile customer, don't buy a phone that is locked to the T-Mobile network. You need to get them to SIM unlock it then you need to get a bootloader unlock token from OnePlus before you'll be able to flash any other ROMs.
KB2005 is the international version from OnePlus. That is the one you want to get. If the model number is KB2007 it's from T-Mobile.

you wouldn't have bootloader unlock and therefore no root, you posted this in the wrong section BTW.

currently one service can't unlock the newer firmwares and the other is on hiatus, maybe for the same reason.

Hello friends,
Recently I moved to Canada, I have the international model, G781B, I was wondering if it is possible to flash the canadian variant. Reason: 5G didnt work so far, tryied everything to make it work, even manually configuration of Bell network.
Comparing at the gsmarena.com, the hardware looks like the same.
I'm almost giving up and buying a new phone.

Most likely your carries uses mmwave 5g network, and international S20 FE 5g uses the other spectrums for 5g. There is no way a software flfash can change anyting, and I do not think that you can even flash software for thw wrong phone model, as odin check the BL version prior to flashing

Come to think of it, is there even a AT&T branded Pixel Pro?
If you buy it from AT&T, it's not unlockable until the SIM is unlocked after meeting their requirements.
oh i bought the global version. just hope i dont ever have to resort to att versions ever again. i still use their sim card however.
