[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Eliminater74:
On the contrary to belief that everyone thinks your IMEI is in modemst1 and modemst2 Are wrong........

at least not on this device... its in dynamic_nvbk.bin and static_nvbk.bin .................

If it was in modemst1 and 2, then the little test I performed with a friend, would of had the same IMEI as me..........

but he didnt.. his IMEI was his correct one....... Also as I said before misc partition was supposed to hold your mac address and stuff like that.

Found out it doesnt. If that was true, then same friend would of had the same mac address as me...

But I know from the past, that stock roms seem to always know your mac address regardless of the misc partition..

I wiped out my g6's misc partition, and running stock my mac address were still there.. but running AOSP, they were gone..

replacing the correct misc partition fixed that. So this one is still up in the air till we get a custom rom to test with........

and Just to clarify this up: we were in no way messing with that.. we were messing with the Dif for a locked and unlocked bootloader.......

I in no way am talking about how one should work with IMEI, which is highly illegal on XDA and FCC at that too.....

But I compared 2 readback dumps of my device, one before bootloader locked and one after bootloader locked,

and only a few partitions changed. modemst11 and modemst2 and misc and param, and config..

Those were the only files that changed.. Yea system and boot changed, but thats because of setup everything Dif... and those are not critical partitions, or should I say private..

Thanks so much! Followed this and I'm back to stock 9.0 V2.

Quick question - any way to get rid of the TMO unlock app? I don't see an option to uninstall it.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
You should be able to just disable it.

However,if you're going to remain stock/unrooted,& you want to make it "go away" ,you can use the ADB Commands to uninstall:

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] _nkay_:
Yeah. I've disables it for now. Probably I'll take the route you suggested to remove it off.

Quick question,do I need unzip tool first ?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghoster76:
Just wonder someone could help, I need MSMDownloadTool for China variant.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
You should try the international version of the tool, I'm not of aware of a Chinese specific version, your best bet would be to contact OnePlus for a proper OS restore of HydrogenOS.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] intrusdave:
Can someone help me with this error?

I'm getting "Images do not match with the phone!"

I'm trying to unbrick the T-mobile 6T, that was unlocked, rooted, and flashed with the global rom.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
That's odd, have you tried using the other msmdownloadtool for the global variant? T-Mobile devices generally get that error when attempting to use that tool instead of this one...
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghoster76:
I suppose we cannot do this. Thus the device was HyrogenOS, then I think I need to wait and flash correct varianr type, don't be dumb once more time.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
You can convert to OxygenOS from HydrogenOS by simply using the Full zip from OP's website and flashing it locally on the HydrogrenOS variant, so I assume it should work fine, if it can't work, the tool generally says so since it does a hardware check. It is still a risk that you'd have to choose to take, just contact OP, they'll remote in to your pc and do an OS restore for you.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghoster76:
Don't count on them, contacted from 2 days ago, and no answer
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] BIGWORM:
Got any kind of changelog?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghoster76:
Hope a day for China variants
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Just checking:

Is this for the OP6T?

The AFH link has it named for its predecessor,the OnePlus 6......

My apologies if this is an unwarranted abundance of caution..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nima0003:
Yes it's for 6t
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
Whatever changed in the recent update from t-mobile should be changed in this one, since its the same build number, just a full firmware instead of the incremental update.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] hatlesssandman:
I just got my bootloader unlock token and was planning on converting my OP to international variant. However I have a MacBook and was concerned if I goof up, there is no way for me to go back as I don't have access to windows PC. Is there any viable work around for this? Thanks

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ghoster76:
Just use the International version on my Chinese variant, it's so good.

Problem solved
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Shemploo:
Very good read this thread, probably the most informative out of the bunch thus far, thank you!.

I'm on the T-Mobile 6T waiting couple more days for Temp SIM unlock to expire so that T-Mobile can perm unlock.

I used to have the S8, but i gladly traded it in for the $300 T-Mobile credit trying to get back to my flashaholic days, imagine my surprise when I learned we have to jump through hoops to unlock SIM/BL, now I learn of the inability to totally convert from T-Mobile to International and regret just not selling my S8 myself and using the rest to buy the international variant.

Anyway...

It seems the community (maybe just me?) is in kind of a fog as far as understanding what can all be done with the T-Mobile variant. Can someone please help me understand?

1. Right now we can't flash the critical partitions because of signatures/etc. But we do have Treble and GSI's should go a long way in ROM compatibility. Theory right? Requires lots of development/trial to get to work?

2. Do you see a scenario where OOS versions and T-Mobile diverge enough that say for example we might be running android Q/R/S because of a GSI or still alive ROM community but with critical partitions from T-Mobiles stock firmware outdated, or Frankensteined together to barley work?

I guess I'm wondering if the mood is that the T-Mobile version is going to be harder to support for the community because of these stupid limitations T-Mobile imposes?

If that's the case, i'm probably going to sell off my T-Mobile version to someone that's not as interested in custom ROMs and just get the international version.

Thanks for all you do for the community, and those that can't themselves.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nima0003:
1: OnePlus 6 roms already boot on here, we just have to fix fingerprint and do device specific builds. So yes that will go a long way.

2: That's actually an amazing question. I believe as more developers get their hands on this device, we will probably decrypt rsa keys and be able to fully convert the device, criticals included.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dameon87:
I'd go as far as to say that I doubt it will ever get that bad. The T-Mo builds may be slightly behind, but I doubt they are ever going to be _THAT_ behind. Plus you're talking primarily the bootloader and stuff with the criticals. I'd truthfully not worry about it that much.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
It's not going to bad at all. I already ported the OnePlus 6 open beta 7 and as one dude said just gotta figure fix notch and fingerprint stuff..so basically we will have up to the near min updates from the 6 or 6t intl
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] bigdumbjay:
I'm back modding my phone after taking a few years off, and you saved me from a boot loop after messing up adding TWRP last night. As a new guy it's great to have a safety net for when things go sideways. Now I'm rooted and actually converted to the 9.0.6 international today. Thanks for posting the tool!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ultraman666:
For the life of me I cant get the tool to see my phone. When its not in fastboot mode, my computer sees it as the correct oneplus device but in fastboot it shows LeMobile android device - Android bootloader Interface. When I try to update the drivers or delete the drivers and use the qualcomm drivers supplied in the other thread (qcser.inf) it says make sure the driver is designed to work with windows based system, I have tried both the x86 and x64 versions same issue. I have rebooted my computer etc. Any ideas, i want to go back to stock so I can update to the latest OTA from Tmobile.... Thanks
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Power it off, unplug from PC. Hold in both vol buttons. Count to five, plug into PC. Now tools gonna show connected.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ultraman666:
Nope still shows N/A
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] free4flight:
Try a different USB cable...
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
You have to force install the drivers.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] sabrdawg:
Not having any luck. It keeps waiting for my device, and then will time out after 16s, saying "Sahara communication failed." I can't figure out how to install the Qualcomm drivers to see if that is the issue, either.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
Manually in device manager, find your device, right click and choose update drivers, choose browse my local computer and find your driver folder.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] sabrdawg:
It's not showing my device anywhere :(
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
Not even an unknown device? What mode is your phone in? Does it show in fastboot mode?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] sabrdawg:
Never mind...I got it to work!!! :D I turned the phone on again to attempt to flash TWRP just for shiggles, and after turning it back off, and then attempting the tool again, it worked! I'm SAVED :)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Albinoman:
Did anything ever come of the people trying to reverse engineer this? Heard something about a forced BL unlock.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nujackk:
Ok try this. When you see the leMobile loaded uninstall it

The open cmd type this without the quotes "bcdedit /set testsigning on"

Reboot . Should see test mode in lower right corner or windows

Install Qualcomm drivers and try the tool. Should work.

When all done open cmd and change above line to off reboot and back to normal
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ultraman666:
Thanks tried this and I get "the boot configuration data store could not be opened. Access is denied"

---------- Post added at 06:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------

Tried this as well same issue
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nujackk:
@ Ultraman666 Oh sorry forgot to mention open cmd with administrator privileges.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ultraman666:
ok that worked and let me into test mode but I still get the error " the folder you specified doesnt contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with the windows for X64 based systems." Guess I will have to try another computer ugh
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nujackk:
Yeah sounds like it, cause that's what worked for me. Soon as I got into test mode driver loaded and all was good. Find windows 7 machine might have better luck
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Flyinace2000:
Tool worker perfeftly. Restored me from internation 9.0.7 to stock tmobile
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] IllyaK:
Why did you go back and did you get the same cell reception on the international version as the TMobile version?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Flyinace2000:
Reception was fine, but I was tired if the cat and mouse game for root detection and my work email with Matisk.

Reception was not noticible different.

Finally I saw that TMobile software updates wasn't lagging nearly as bad as I originally feared.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLogicalGamer:
Hey guys. Glad to finally be on the OnePlus train. Jumped from lg, and couldn't be happier. I'm aspiring room cooker/Dev. Givin that I don't know too too much I like to have a way back to stock from my PC so thanks for this tool guys. However I'm running into a problem when trying to use it.

I was able to install the drivers via the starting windows in test mode mentioned above. The tool detects my device, but after hitting start it just hangs on memory size: in the 3rd col, and waiting for device in last col. It never actually starts to flash anything. Pressing stop just caused it to hang with stopping download in the third col and still waiting for device in the 4th still.

I was able to unplug the device after force closing the program in device manager (admittingly probably a bad idea) and got the phone to reboot and was able to try again. Still no luck though same thing.

I was in edl mode (blank screen). I have twrp & magisk installed. I was actually wanting to restore to stock to go through the process again to get a better understanding of the duel slots, as this is the first phone I've owned that had them.

I'm running win 10 home 64 bit. On a custom built gaming/Dev rig. I had thought perhaps it was because I disabled test mode before flashing, but figured if that was the case the program wouldn't be able to use the drivers.

Any help would be great thanks guys.

Also if anyone that has flashed successfully could give me the time it usually takes on the memory size: segment of the restore I'd appreciate it.

Also it's a Tmo 6T

Edit: Also using v2 from op, and the drivers from op as well.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
You shouldn't need test mode to flash, I use regular mode, the overall process takes anywhere between 5-10 mins, have you tried various usb ports? What I used was googles universal usb drivers, that seemed to cover qusb mode as well, since I never ran into the driver issue and the samsung/google universal drivers are all I can remember ever installing on my pc, I am using a custom gaming rig I built as well, when I had the hanging issue, I was using the front usb ports, I switched to the rear onboard ports and it works perfectly fine.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
You know you could've done the local upgrade and locked the bootloader so you could have the best of both worlds right? Global firmware and a secure device meeting the security requirements.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLogicalGamer:
Tried one of my back usb ports instead of my front ones. I think the one I tried may be usb 2.0 though. The only reason I used the drivers in the op was because it showed up in my device manager as qualcom something. Sorry can't remember the exact name off the top of my head. currently on 554 ms but I'll attach a screenshot if it helps. Did you have to manually install the drivers as the google universal usb via device manager? Had to do that a couple of times on my past lg phones for fastboot.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Flyinace2000:
At the time it was t an theory. Until they test the 9.0.10 update I'll hold off.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
I had to manually update using the google drivers once, the pc finds the drivers automatically since then, and this device is limited to usb 2.0 anyways, so it doesn't really matter what port version you're using, try deleting the drivers and manually installing again.

Edit: reboot the device into qusb mode and your pc, and make sure you're using a good cable, that transfer rate doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

.10 update works fine via local upgrade, only breaks twrp, but that has been updated, though that doesn't matter in your case.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLogicalGamer:
Just using the cable that came with the phone. I've a random one from a friend just laying around. Think it was from a gas station though lol. Just to clarify you mean uninstall the drivers from the op then manually point to the google usb drivers while in qusb correct?

Edit managed to get the drivers and device uninstalled here's what it shows up as in device manager by default for reference.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
Yes, or any other drivers that you can find thats newer tbh, not sure how old the OP drivers are and make sure you select delete drivers when uninstalling it.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLogicalGamer:
Okay well I've got adb & bootloader interface listed under android devices. I installed them from this thread. And oh my I just saw how ancient they are: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

They've always worked though haven't had a problem. Just for clarification when you say google usb do you mean adb & fastboot? Now that I think about it if not I know Installed the google usb drivers with android studio. The only problem would be finding them. I'll attach a couple of more screenshot's for reference. Sorry to put you through all this trouble man.

These are the two I have available in my list from Device manager> update driver> let me pick from a list of installed drivers.

Edit also included the options under the first one. The options for the second one are about the same, and the ones below that are old lg drivers. still got my old v20 & g3 lol.

Edit 2: Tried adb and the Msm wouldn't detect my phone at all.

Also I'm still showing two separate com ports. I guess from where I switched usb ports.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dark Nightmare:
You have to uninstall the lemobile device, those are the wrong drivers, but the right interface, you said the OP drivers aren't allowing you to install them due to signing issue, correct?

[General Questions and Answers] Firekracker50:
Hello I an running a Droid Z2 Force. I have several cameras in which store pics/vid on SD cards. I generally use the Samsung EVO Select 32GB cards. I have a USB C to USB A 3.0 adapter. And a USB 3.0 card reader.

I have been using the native File Manager version 4.0.27.

I transfer the pictures from the SD card via the card reader to an SD card that resides in my phone. Also a Samsung EVO Select.

On multiple occasions I have experienced file loss. I perform the file transfer with the native file manager by selecting the folder on the SD card that is in the reader, selecting move to, selecting the folder on the SD card in phone that I want the files, and selecting paste. Occationally once completed the folder with pictures/videos is not on either SD card. They are totally lost.

Also the transfer speed is extremely slow. Painfully slow.

What is the best file manager for USB OTG file transfer like I am doing? I want something reliable that won't loose my pics. And something that will xfer quickly.

Also does it matter if I use Fat32, NTFS, or exFAT for the SD card? Currently I believe I'm using Fat32 but I will have to double check.

If I have left out any needed information please ask and I will supply it.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] morpheus95:
Hi,

Dose any know how i can get an Email count for Outlook E-mail ?

i am using wibar on my Tytn II and i have sorted out how to get the email count for two which are "gmail" and "fastmail" but as you know the Tytn has to check these every 30min or so (what ever time has been set) but i setup an account with mobipush which uses Outlook and that why i need the count for it if its possible.

i have used the method below from another forum

1. Create a shortcut (wherever) to \windows\tmail.exe.

2. Modify that shortcut so that it reads"

"\windows\tmail.exe" -service "AccountName"

AccountName should be exactly as it show up in your Accounts list. (When you're in tmail, click menu, then "Go to" and use the name as you see it there. I'm using this trick for POP accounts - I'm not sure if this will work for "Outlook E-mail". For Text Messages, of course, you use "SMS" and for Multimedia messages you use "MMS".)

Once you have the shortcut, just specify the filename for the .LNK file (e.g. "\My Documents\gmail.lnk") as the command for your (WAD) shortcut.

You can use the same principles to create a Text Object (which can sit on top of the icon that takes you to that e-mail account) which will show the unread message count for that account. Just create a text object with

Object Type: Custom Text

Text to display: %Unread:AccountName% (as above) and

Tap Action: .LNK file as above

now i did try this but with the account name of "Outlook E-mail" and "Outlook" but none of those seem to work.

if any of you clever members could get this working i would be very grateful.

Tony
