I just downloaded the 10.0.1GM21AA zip, then did a local upgrade from within settings. I was expecting it to not work but everything works 100%!

I literally bought the phone yesterday!

Not sure if 10.0.1 has anything to do with it, but I'm surprised!

Is there any benefits to getting the token for boot loader the old way from ONEplus or is this quick way identical. I ask because I read somewhere that it isn't so o can't make up my mind. Thanks

Ok after searching thru all the pages I cannot find a solution, my PC won't find my OnePlus 7 pro through adb, I've done the plug in file transfer thing and the OnePlus setup thing still no cigar any help would be appreciated

Download the zip, and perform upgrade like you would with any other update. It took about 5-10 minutes to get booted. I've been using it all day and I believe it still picks up 600mhz T-Mobile bands (Band 71) because I have strong signal where I didn't before

Just a Note, The patches listed on OP, no longer will work on any of the newer .OPS files...... So dont bother Downloading any of the Patchers..

I had to do a restore the other day tried the patch and didnt work, So I ended up manually patching the latest release .OPS file, so I dont have to go through

all the BS starting with the original .OPS file listed..........
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Roach419:
Ok here is where im at.

Bootloader and sim unlocked.

Uninstalled all drivers i could find

Installed oneplus drivers

Restarted computer

Opened device manager

Edl mode via button press

Right click on Qualcomm, uninstall

Scan hardware changes, replaced it with cab file, asks to reboot computer. If i do, it turns into an exclamation point. If i dont it turns into an exclamation point and as its connected to msm, i hit start, and a Sahara communication error pops up.

Even if i seemingly get the drivers right, im stuck on param preload. I dont understand how this is defeating me so bad......
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] cop982002:
Same here...Im about to give up..
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] aoaleman:
Why are you uninstalling the Qualcomm driver? That is needed for the COMM port.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] cop982002:
To update it?

I can't wait to try this tonight! Will update with my results. Thank you so much devs, your work NEVER will go unappreciated.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] eduardmc:
after convertion you can unlock the bootloader. no need to wait the 7 days
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Fatmonk8:
No I don't think you can at this point. Unless you unlocked before conversation OEM unlocking is greyed out, seems they are still working on it to be able to unlock after using the tool.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Phillyslix:
I have already found it. Thanks for responding.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] likecookies:
Thank you very much for this
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] slayerh4x:
This allows you to unlock the bootloader only if your SIM is unlocked.

SIM unlock will come later.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Fatmonk8:
Right, my sim is not unlocked so I have to wait.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] slayerh4x:
These two have nothing to do with each other.

The patcher is just to patch OPS files. The one in the original instructions includes an already patched ops. The patcher lets you make your own if you want to use a different ops.

Gotcha, thanks

only if you need to install custom Rom you need it but in my mind I see perfect with the international version, if you want it you do not need the unlocking of the bootloader

Not sure if you've found a solution yet, but make sure you've installed any drivers if your computer didn't do it automatically, and ensure USB debugging is enabled in your phone in Developer Options. Afterwards, verify with command 'adb devices'

Is there a benefit to unlock from provider over this method .. ?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] chibichuba:
If I'm on T-Mo 9.5.11 stock right now, will unlocking bootloader and converting still work? Also, does this void warranty or cause any issues with T-Mobile?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] AarSyl:
Only if you tell them! ? But seriously, there's no way for them to tell that you converted and switched back. For that matter, I even JUMPed from a 6T to a different phone (for my wife), and they had no idea that it was still the international firmware. It was an emergency, so I wasn't able to convert back before I upgraded.

I keep trying to get step 4 to work with no success . I downloaded all three files from the mirror site (guacamole, msm, and L2 drivers) and extract them all into a folder on my computer. I make sure my phone is off , open msm , hold the volume up and down buttons on phone for 5 seconds, plug the USB onto phone, and wait for connect to display. It never appears. I have tried numerous times and can't get it to show.

What am I not doing right?

Edit: I have installed the OnePlus 7 pro drivers from my phone onto my laptop. I have the guacamole and msm files in the same folder on my laptop, when I extracted the L2 folder I put the 32 folder and 64 foleder with the other two files so it looks like this:

32 (folder)

64 ( folder)

Guacamole

Msm

All 4 of these files and folders are in a folder called "new folder" on my laptop.

T-Mobile converted to international.

Sim unlocked. Can run msm tool to convert to international. Once phone gets into the OS the network keeps connecting and dropping. I can msm back to the T-Mobile version and have no troubles with network. I have also tried the fastboot method and the same happens to the sim and network dropping. Any help appreciated.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Mildromeda:
So I did all that, I installed the drivers from the l2 or whatever anyways I got it to be recognized in ADB devices and I also got the MSM tool to start running but it gets Frozen at Param now and just keeps counting up. this is crazy I can't believe that things are more difficult than they were back when I used to do them with my Nexus I know that it's not a Google device but it still seems that things are a little bit more difficult than they ever were.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] RandomPooka:
You're trying to do a thing that's not supposed to be done to the phone. Sometimes that gets difficult.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Mildromeda:
Ok so hopefully this will help kinda of lol, so I was having the same issue couldn't get adb to connect so plugged in phone. Go into settings and find where it has the options transfer files/mtp/don't transfer etc you know that menu when you plug it in that pops up well it didn't with mine so I had to find it in settings. Then after that do enable developer options then usb debugging then give the permission key thing when it pops up. Ok so at this point it still wasn't working right so I plugged it in went into device manager on my PC and it showed the adb interface! Thing so I right clicked that then click update then click pick your own then scroll down to Google Inc installed and that worked for the adb... Then l now for the msm thing so yes do the 2 L2 drivers thing but that didn't seem to work so I had to Google Qualcomm drivers for OnePlus 7 pro found a mediashare file and boom it was recognized in the edl mode so I was able to open msm then unclick the Sha box plug the phone in on and type adb reboot edl and then it flashed connected I hit start really fast not sure if I had to but I wasn't going to take the risk and it worked.

So side note I pretty much wiped my PC before doing all this again and I installed the android sdk studio and everything after I reset my PC.

It's crazy how iffy this was listen I'm more than thankful but there was a lot of guess work here and if wasn't for my history with the Nexus devices I would've never figured this out I mean I was getting no adb no adl no msm and there wasn't much help here for those also how do I get the Android 10 update now? It's only showing the latest 9 maybe after I update to that I'll get the 10 notification guess we'll see

I know I'm aware I ended up getting it to work but by filling in alot of blanks I'm not trying to be rude about it. I just remember there being alot more "what if" options on previous threads for devices.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] NotATreoFan:
You still need an unlock token from OnePlus to unlock the TMO model, even on global firmware. It takes about a week from request to processing. You can get around it by flashing the A10 DP3 OTA, and it won't check for the token.

L2 drivers
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] egglitofinocas:
Thank you for all your help! Finally got it to work! This is awesome!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] cop982002:
Tell us how?!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] egglitofinocas:
1) Install fastboot and adb drivers on computer, and OP7 drivers by connecting phone to computer using the file transfer option instead of charging. Access the device folder and install the drivers.

2) Download both compressed files using OP's instructions. Extract them both and copy them into a separate folder, where only the extracted files exist.

3) Confirm that ADB is working by connecting the phone via USB, enabling Debugging, and using the command "adb devices". The phone should show up as connected. Keep the phone connected and open the MSM application in the extracted files folder, and uncheck the "SHA 256" box. In the command prompt, type "adb reboot edl" and keep an eye on the MSM app. As soon as the status says "connected", hit the "start" button in the app. Let it run until the progress bar turns green and says "download completed". The phone will restart and that's it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
You can actually hit the start button before the device shows as connected. It will start automatically once the device enters EDL Mode, if everything is good.

I'm currently on the Global version. Stable 10.0.1 but I read somewhere that you would run into issues if trying to flash OB 10 builds on a T-Mobile converted to Global
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] RandomPooka:
I believe the needed files for voice and data on TMobile aren't in the betas. If you're just looking to flash it to get an unlocked bootloader, there's guides for how to do that.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] robertelam83:
No no no. I converted my T-Mobile 7 pro using the MSM tool from this thread.

I'm already unlocked, rooted and on the Global firmware and updated from 9.11 to 10.0.1
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] RandomPooka:
Then I'm once again confused why you might want to flash the open beta if you're already unlocked and on 10.0.1
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] robertelam83:
Because OB4 Is a newer build of Android 10, bug fixes, new/updated features
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] anoymonos:
If my device is sim unlocked before I convert , will it still be unlocked after conversion?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Yes. Flashing does not alter the SIM lock or unlock state of the device.

That makes more sense. I didn't realize they were still releasing beta versions after the official release dropped

Is there a way to get the Google ( Now ) feed back after converting?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Nitemare3219:
Currently running the latest T-Mobile OTA of 9.5.11/September patch. Do the instructions and linked files in OP still apply? My intention is to get Android 10 running on the stable OOS release. My SIM and bootloader are still locked, and will stay that way.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] kyledowling:
Yes but you would have to use Rootless Pixel Launcher, sideload the pixelbridge.apk from GitHub, and enable Google feed integration from the launcher's settings. A quick Google search will bring up the pixelbridge apk file.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] vahdyx:
I downloaded everything from here, my phone is still on an EIP and when I press and hold the volume buttons and power, it goes into Fastboot. When I plug it in to my computer, nothing happens. No com saying connected, nothing.

I'm doing something wrong, why won't it establish a connection?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] vahdyx:
Think I know what's going on. ADB Devices won't show anything in "Fast Boot Mode" so I think something is up with my set up where I can't have the MSM tool find it in FastBoot. However when I'm on my home screen and do "ADB Devices" it finds it just fine. When I do ADB Reboot EDL, it gets to fastboot and again, nothing. It loses connection.

Anyone know why this is?

I had the same issue converting mine. ADB saw my phone but adb reboot edl just booted device to blank screen and msm tool didnt see it. I had to open device manager and then connect the phone to the computer. When I saw a new device pop up on a com port I manually updated the driver with the l2 driver.

After that when I ran the msm tool then ran ADB reboot EDL, msm tool saw my phone and ran.

I just want to say, that after all these months, I am finally on the international OS.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] canhazpixels:
Quick question from someone who just ordered an unlocked US-version (T-mobile, I assume) version of the phone - does turning it into the 'international firmware' version disable the US-specific bands (like 71/600 MHz LTE) on T-mobile's network? If so, I'd rather not go to all the trouble, since reception would be worse.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
The GM1917 and GM1915 firmware have the same bands.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] canhazpixels:
Nope! Not according to Amazon and GSMarena. The international version is missing band 71.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
According to OnePlus, the international version GM1917 has band 71.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] canhazpixels:
Well, I'll be. I guess those websites were wrong, then... Wow. And here I spent all this time looking for a refurbished tmobile version for sale, after reading the stuff on those sites! Maybe it's changed since initial release? Hm...

So, what reason could there possibly be that anyone would want to keep their phone on the Tmobile firmware version? Better wifi calling?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
I think it has always been that way for the OnePlus 7 Pro. Better carrier aggregation on T-Mobile with the T-Mobile firmware and yeah, WiFi Calling does work better. The hand off from WiFi to cellular and vice versa is much better on the T-Mobile firmware. Not everyone needs or wants a dual-SIM device as well and the ability to just walk into a store and get it versus waiting for it to ship. Both firmware have their strengths and weaknesses. The firmware on the T-Mobile version is much more stable and polished than what is on the International firmware. That doesn't mean the International firmware isn't great though.
