[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] FrisoRoel:
Thx for the fast response. Yes the bootlooder was unlocked.

Have to look into into it further because I cannot find the Qualcomm drivers also with the unhidden option. I had installed the drivers from OP but were chinese so and I tried to install them by prompt commands. May be I did this wrong.

So I installed yours, but after reboot I cannot find the qualcomm drivers (again unhidden tapped). By reinstalling it, it was confirmed that the drivers must be there and I choosed the reinstall option. Again, qualcomm is hidden perfectly.

I'll now try to run msmtools again and will report back

btw, I managed to awake the phone by long pressing (over 10 sec) volume up and power.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
It would be under port or usb in device manager, if u have access to fastboot or recovery then use fastboot files or full rom.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] FrisoRoel:
Not there, I opened every item to look into it. But who cares, it worked.:good:

Gonna install the phone again.

I hope I got rid of the pinnumber not being recognised, there all the fuzz began.

thanks man. Happy new year

MSMTool OP6T stuck on param processing

The MSMTool stuck on this :(

https://imgur.com/qiaF8oh

can help me?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I made an interesting observation when i was reinstalling drivers after i reseted my laptop

I was trying to install drivers on locked bootloader loader, it failed everytime, every driver, device manager showed QSBULK with some numbers seperated by ::

I tried again after unlocking the bootloader, and it worked.

I am not saying that tool wont work on locked bootloader, it works, I have tested, but installing drivers with locked bootloader was not working for me.

Maybe to protect from thieves? Idk. Wierd but interesting, maybe someone with technical knowledge can put some light on it.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] iaTa:
Update your WinRAR.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] akobites:

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] H4X0R46:
Thanks again for this tool! I downloaded the new version you posted and just wanted to ask which exe to run. They both seem to start the program with no discernible difference between the two, which is correct? Thanks! :D
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Factory exe wipes op1 and op2 and a few others where normal one restores everything u absolutely need
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] H4X0R46:
So factory is a more thorough install? Just clarifying, I'm still unclear sorry lol
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] null0seven:
MSM tool erase ALL in youre phone & rewrites the phone like when was launched by OnePlus factory.

Bootloader Locked, unRooted.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yeah cuz if I run msm regular after running McLaren rom, i still have McLaren stuff in /op1. After running factory i dont.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] erto90:
I'm on beta2 and wanted to return stock 9.0.06... I'm not rooted and my bootloader is locked.

Do I need to use MsmTool to revert to stable or there is a faster way ?

Thanks
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] H4X0R46:
I would say using TWRP. Unlock your bootloader, boot twrp with fastboot, and install. If you don't want to unlock your bootloader or mess with TWRP, then yeah, MSM tool unfortunately. MSM should work with a locked bootloader from what I've heard.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] AlanDS:
Whether similar kind of tool is available with HydrogenOS for International version?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] rlramakrishnan:
How does one do this?

Point No. 3 - Press and hold the Volume Up & Volume Down buttons then connect to your PC using your data cable.

How does one hold both the Volume Up & Volume Down buttons at the same time? :rolleyes:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] liam_davenport:
Place your thumb on both buttons? :silly:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] rlramakrishnan:
:o Sheepish grin...
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cjwaggsrx8:
that's exactly how to do it and one thing that gave me problems is that you need to hold it down for a good ten to fifteen seconds before connecting it to make sure it's in that MSM mode..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dibbyo123:
Please release for the latest version. :)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] david72262:
Only way to get latest version is if OnePlus updates it and then some one captures and copies it during a remote session. So if you know anybody doing a remote session with OnePlus tell them to copy the tool

Updated to OOS v9.0.11 which is also compatible with the McLaren edition.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tino73:
I have a TMobile OnePlus 6t that i converted into international OS 9.0.6 but since then I get a message in red at start that says the device is corrupt. I did factory reset and installed OS 9.0.11 wipping the device and even relocking the bootloader to see if I could get rid of the message with no luck.

I have a mac and no PC so I haven't been able to try the tool, I was wondering if using the tool to reinstall 9.0.11 would fix this issue.

Thank you in advance for the help.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Striatum_bdr:
Within a terminal emulator:

su

reboot "dm-verity enforcing"

You can do this in TWRP terminal without 'su' or from a computer with

adb reboot "dm-verity enforcing"
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tino73:
Thank you very much, I tried it in my computer and worked, no sign of the annoying message anymore!:good::good::good:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] gigawatt:
Hi, had a couple of questions, I am the one who gave the 9.0.11, and I am totally blind so I want to know, are the McLaren wallpapers and logos there if someone flashes? Also, I know the t-mobile modem has a different signature, but I noticed there is a modem.img in the fastboot roms, if I flash the t-mobile modem.img, am I actually getting the t-mobile modem even though the t-mobile rom won't flash, anotherwords can I use the international model and the t-mobile modem by flashing it in fastboot? Also where is a good place to ask about removing apps in twrp using adb shell, because when I remove them and reboot, there back. I'd like to make a backup of some sort and remove a bunch of oneplus apps and when I factory data reset there gone. Thanks for all of the help.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] AnonymousTipster:
Thanks to the new tools (9.0.11), it is now possible to directly convert a T-Mobile 6T from the stock firmware, with LOCKED bootloader, and LOCKED SIM directly to the international firmware! https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/t-mobile-6t-to-international-t3888307

If you want to unlock bootloader at that point, then it's just a simple fastboot oem unlock WITHOUT having to wait 7 days for OnePlus unlock bin.

I tested it myself.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] lemonspeakers:
Wait does this method still require the unlock bin key tho?

Does this mean any tmovile variant can be unlocked now to any network without T-Mobile's help?

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

If I want to start as fresh as a clean slate, how does the MSM tool compare to using the adb command "fastboot format userdata"? I use that command everytime I do a super deep clean wipe before I install a brand new ROM. This, however, does not remove the unlocked bootloader.

Is there something I'm missing?

I have an OCD to wipe my phone clean pretty often cuz I feel like it get cluttered and my deleted Fikes are actually not "really" fully deleted.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Thanks for 9.0.11 msmtool.

Did anyone tried 9.0.11? Just curious.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] hondasforlife:
Has anyone tried out the new 4.0.58 tool on the McLaren edition??
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] iaTa:
Yes it's been successfully tried on all models.

International, McLaren and T-Mobile (with modded flasher).

Great news about the T-Mobile flashing by the way!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] rlramakrishnan:
Curious

Curious as to what the other two files are - MsmDownloadTool V4.0 and MsmDownloadTool V4.0_factory_mcl_op1. I suppose the second one is for the McLaren edition. But the first? Just curious to know, that's all.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] AnonymousTipster:
It writes the entire unlocked 6t firmware to your phone, WITHOUT needing a SIM unlock OR bootloader unlock. You can do it on ANY TMobile branded 6t.

If you'd like to unlock bootloader after converting, there's no need to use an unlock bin anymore.

Yes using the tool wipes the whole phone.

The non mcl exe is used for the regular unlocked 6t. So you'd be flashing bit for bit what all the unlocked 6ts sold by OnePlus would have installed on the phone
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] rlramakrishnan:
Thanks!

Worked flawlessly to revert my 6T to stock ROM from Beta 2, without unlocking bootloader, booting TWRP, installing stock ROM from etc. Thanks a million!

Just wondering if anyone else gets the Windows Defender SmartScreen error denying the download when trying to download the tool? I turned off SmartScreen and downloaded the file (Pic of error below) but thought it was weird.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Tell it run anyway and allow. If it gives u crap go into bit defender and allow it to run..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jeffro64:
I can run it after downloading...That was defender trying to stop the download because it thought it was unsafe or from an unsafe site.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :

I really like this phone and glad I got it...Just wish I would have bought directly from OP. Still running Screwd on the old Shamu, but not sure I'll be using it much after getting the 6t LOL.

I hear ya on that LOL....But it is awesome to how quick things are moving with the 6T. Not sure I will root anytime soon or not unless I can't live without Substratum LOL, But I'm glad to see you have this phone and working on things! I thought you went with the Essential Phone or something else.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yeah i had essential for about six months and i tried to love it and nourish it with roms and good stuff, but, alas, its too much of a pain for me to mod. Having to format constantly and i could see everything was starting to go down hill and got out while my head could stay above water and not take too much of a financial loss on the device.i kept maintaining blind faith in their company but too many broken promises and unanswered questions..

I have a problem with MsmDownloadTool V4.0

The device is not known

Solutions I've tried

Delete the driver and reinstall it

Change the USB port

I tried another computer running Windows 7

The same problem

I could not solve the problem

oneplus 6T

Windows 10

Try this driver

If it doesn't work, update this driver using option in device manager.

Also whenever u update or reinstall driver, windows pc should be restarted.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ADEL_:
I tried this driver and the problem did not go

I tried installing the driver using the option in Device Manager and the same problem

I installed VMware and installed Windows 7 and Windows 8.1

Then try MsmDownloadTool V4.0 and the same problem is stuck in "Waiting for device":crying:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Try this

Connect ur phone

Go to device manager and click on view tab and enable hidden device

Find Qualcomm or QSBULK

Uninstall it and Remove all driver files

Download drivers from page 17 of this thread

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hUmBW9vm0PqbElhKnqQs2CwHVV_Zmi6e/view?usp=drivesdk ( i had them in my drive )

Install them ( it is exe file, just click next everytime )

Important - reboot pc

Connect device again

If u have same error, then

Go to device manager

Right click on Qualcomm

Select update drivers from menu

Let windows download and install

Important - reboot pc

Connect again

Another question - was ur bootloader unlocked?

I always had issue installing drivers on locked bootloader and its always easy to install drivers once bootloader is unlocked.

If nothing works and if fastboot is accessible, unlock the bootloader and repeat the entire process.

This is for OP6 but you try the part with windows test mode.

[TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)

You can use it to revive your op6, if you can boot in fastboot and have done the stuff with drivers (qualcomm)

MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)

May 2018 Android patches

Guide how to revive your op6:

First of all, you need to access to fastboot mode, if you can't , contact Oneplus support,

then have a windows computer and download these file and drivers qualcomm

( https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347798730) and extract in one folder.

After you have all the file ready, plug in the phone to the computer,

go in device manager and under port (COM) disinstall qualcomm one (oneplus 6) and then unplug.

Now you have to go in Windows test mode to not let him install default drivers, so:

windows key (on keyboard) + X, windows powershell (or normal prompt) administrator and write and enter:

bcdedit /set testsigning on ( you will repeat the same process with "off" to stop the test mode after you will finish to do all the things).

Reboot the system and you could see in bottom right corner the test mode, now you are ready to install properly drivers.

Power off the phone, then hold for 5 seconds vol up and plug the usb to computer.

Now you have to see US8_BULK as new device connected and you can also see in device manager;

if you can't notice it, repeat the process until you see it (power on, power off, hold...)

there is a full youtube guide for op5 and it's the same process (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpLvmID1wdI)

Right click con US8_BULK in device manager and update drivers by system files (go to the folder's drivers you had extracted before).

Now you should see qualcomm drivers under port (COM).

You are ready to let the tool to do all the stuff, so let plugged the phone, always powered off,

right click on msmdownloadtool and execute as administrator.

You should see your device and click start to begin the process; if it gives you some error (like sahara or something else),

unplug, power on, power off and the plug it again, now it should be fine.

And that's it, the tool will do all the work and, at the end, you will have like a brand new phone ready to a new setup.

IMPORTANT !!! if you are stucked in bootloader, you have only to power off and continue with the part: ... hold for 5 seconds vol up... This works.

If you are stuck at that step, you have the wrong drivers installed. Make sure you install the Qualcom USB drivers. Without it, process stalls at param_preprocessing" and never finishes.
