Ok long story short the pixel 4xl stinks I returned it. so I decided to get TMobile oneplus 7 pro of swappa and I went on the unlocked app and it's unlocked but the bootloader isn't and I download files in that are in first op and I'm trying to extract the 3 files in a folder with 7zip and the only file that extracts is the driver file for some reason 7zip can not extract msm tool file and the intl firmare file. I don't feel like waiting for 7 days lol. #1 why can't I extract those 2 files and also can someone provide the extracted files please? I'm in New Jersey and try to extract them from 12 am till 6am lol. So frustrating. Thx in advance
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] freddienuxx:
Can someone please tell how to extract the firmare pack for the TMobile to intl?

When I extract it the file it turn into a . Ops file and I can't open it. Can someone tell how to extract please thx again

Hey so I've done this to my 1915 and took the OTA so it works on visible wireless. Will I be updated when international OTAs pop up now going forward?

Why can't I do the beta updates?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] resqguy86:
So I've been trying to open the files to get to the contents of msm and guacamole and the drivers but all it does it well, nothing. How did you get the contents of the folders?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
You will receive Ota updates for the firmware you are on normally as long as you aren't rooted and installed a full stock firmware using the MSM Tool.

I am not sure if the Android 10 beta and stable updates are Visible compatible.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] robertelam83:
I downloaded 7-zip to unzip the files. Once unzipped you'll have the folder with all the contents. Open that copy all contents and paste them all into 1 folder with the MSM tool
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] trillonometry:
I wonder what id need to do to get on the beta then?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jhc1:
do you mean put in msm tool folder?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] freddienuxx:
Do I put in folder like this? And also every time I connect cable it goes right to the charging. So frustrating been doing this for days till six In the morning. Driving me nuts
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] robertelam83:
I copied all files from both folders and put them in folder with the MSM tool.

So you should have the MSM tool + the contents from both folders all in one folder.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] freddienuxx:
Ok! I did that still no go! as soon as I plug in it goes to charging state
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Download the update for the beta from one of the threads that link to it, place it in the root of the devices storage, and manually update through the update option under Settings, System, System Updates, and then hit the cog and Local Update.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] trillonometry:
Might be a dumb question but when you say root does that mean I have to be rooted?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
No. What I mean by the root of the storage, is when you go to the device under File Explorer, the update needs to be copied to the main directory or not put in any sub-folders.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] trillonometry:
Great info. I had the incremental update and it wasn't seeing that.

Running 10 now.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] robertelam83:
Did you unlock developer options?

Settings > about phone > build # (tap that repeatedly) it'll unlock developer options.

In developer options

Turn on OEM unlocking

Turn on USB debugging

Scroll down til you see (default USB configuration) set it to file transfer.

NOW before connecting your phone to PC (make sure phone is powered off)

Open MSM tool > select start > it'll say waiting for device....with phone still powered off press and hold volume up + down simultaneously > connect your phone to the PC And continue holding down it should start the process automatically
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] freddienuxx:
Ok I will give it a shot [emoji106]
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] freddienuxx:

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] robertelam83:
More than welcome. I'm just an end user same as you but happy to help??
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ookees:
If my sim was already unlocked by T-Mobile and I have the OEM unlocking available in developer options, do I need to do the first few steps of this guide still? Do I have to flash a specific bootloader? Or can I just flash TWRP and just choose whichever compatible ROM like we did back in the Nexus days?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] zeath86:
I'm having same prob bro can you do me? See if we can figure it out
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] freddienuxx:
look at my screen shot a couple post back. extract all the files and put in one folder no sub-folders just in one folder. pretty much extract files take out extract folders and put in one folder and the ops file is the firmware.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] zeath86:
I'm in North Jersey btw. Where do I get the man tool? I won't work on my computer using Windows 7 maybe that's why because I'm using an old version of Windows?

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] shattered519:
Hi, all. Just got a T-Mobile op7p and I'm having some trouble getting it to show up in the MSM tool. I've used both the button method while phone off and adb reboot edl while phone on, but the former results in the phone showing the charging battery icon while the latter simply reboots normally. I've installed the drivers from the phone when the phone gets plugged in, and tried this with usb debugging on and off. adb shows the phone under adb devices. All the files were downloaded and put into the same folder. Any ideas how I get this to work? I've searched this post but haven't found a similar experience due to the sheer number of posts. Any help is appreciated!

EDIT: Got it working! You guys are a stellar community!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] russey2005:
After moving to international will this allow me to join the beta?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] lazbrav92:
Yes, you'll be allowed to everything and you're gonna get the last international version update faster than tmo version
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] russey2005:
To move to beta I just have to place the beta update from OnePlus site and install from local?

Downloaded all files and when running MSM tool get error "patched images does not exist" 5500kb. Also checked download for Additional 7z says 1kb and driver 1837kb.

Looks like did not download? Any suggestions?

Also to unzip what do I use that is free to unzip-I guess rar?

Advice would be appreciated?

Thanks!

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] vettejock99:
Question regarding the approach

Does this still work if you've got a Tmo OP7Pro that's been fully updated to the official 10.x firmware already? If so, is it better to update fully first to ensure modem/baseband and other files and partitions are fully updated to ensure the best compatibility with the Tmo network (band 71, wifi calling handoff, etc) or should I do this conversion before updating? The used one I just bought to replace my OP6T is on v9.5.9 or something like that at this time.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] RandomPooka:
Everything about the TMO oos will be destroyed. No point in trying to update to the latest baseband. It's going to be overwritten
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Bestbang4urbuck:
Here to help a few people out and also have a question myself. I did flash my T-Mobile op7p to international. The files work just fine. Go to your desktop and right click. New, folder. I just named it "phone". You will extract everything into this. Now right click msmdownloadtool and run as admin. Click yes to run. Soon as it opens click enum. Now is the time to hold your volumes buttons and plug it in. The part I might have messed up on (idk) my phone is working just fine. I totally forgot to uncheck sha 256. But everything still went smooth and my phone is working. So what is the sha 256 and why are we unchecking it? Glad I could help out anybody that was having trouble and hoping somebody can explain this sha 256 to me
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] madunix:
Can someone explain to me the benefits of switching to the international version? I'm on T-Mobile, and when i went into one of their apps, it straight up asked me if i'd like to unlock my phone, i hit yes and then the phone restarted. I inserted an international sim card and I had access to the phone. Since the SIM wasn't active, i have no real way of knowing if that's what the restart was for. Anyway, any advice or answers are appreciated. Thank you.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] csmooth2001:
either open task manager and delete the msmdownloadtool that is running -OR-

reboot windows
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] famewolf:
Dual sim support (personally confirmed working after buying a $8 dual sim tray from ebay to put in phone). Upgrading to Android 10 that last I heard the t-mobile version still doesn't have. Oneplus Upgrader to allow you to force recent updates instead of having to wait in line (doesn't work on "T-mobile model"). Removal of T-mobile bloatware. DC dimming is enabled on international and not on t-mobile (possibly because it doesn't have Android 10 yet).

I'm sure the list goes on. The t-mobile version was $100 cheaper even with both unlocked than an internation when buying used from swappa.com.

---------- Post added at 11:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

When I had issues with this it was because it was loading the wrong drivers for the device...I basically did delete of device and scan for hardware....finally it found "Oneplus Driver" and that seemed to do the trick. Not sure what was different but prior to that I was getting the sahara error. You also should start the msm app and have it "waiting on device" before you put the phone into edl because it apparently needs to grab it right off the bat or you missed it and might as well restart.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] boom_bee:
Hello everyone, I was lazy to read through all the pages and posts, but if anyone is willing to give an answer if appreciate it. After doing this process, do I need to update my op7p through oxygen updater incrementally or will I will I get the ota notification and update through that?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Either way will work.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] boom_bee:
Okay thank you!?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] famewolf:
By Reject do you mean blacklist? I have a t-mobile sim for another 20 days or so and an ultra mobile (also uses the t-mobile network) and would like to keep both sim's in so I can use the unlimited data on the t-mobile till it runs out. I've tested it and it worked but pulled it out after concern the duplicate might get my imei blacklisted and then it wouldn't work for either provider. Ultra Mobile also doesn't do refunds.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ogre del:
TMobile just released the Android 10 for the 7 pro. (Last night) Do we know if u can still flash the international version over the TMobile 10 firmware with this method?

---------- Post added at 04:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:58 PM ----------

I was gonna flash the international today, but surprise surprise TMobile FINALLY pushed it. I just don't want to wait for further updates
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Not blacklist. A device IMEI is supposed to be unique to a single device and SIM. Some networks do not permit more than one device with an IMEI on their network at the same time. If you use two different carrier SIM's, it shouldn' t matter as long as they aren't using the same network. Networks like T-Mobile don't seem to care if there is more than one SIM tied to the same IMEI on their network.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] chibichuba:
Safest bet is to not update OTA to OOS 10.0.1 yet if you plan to convert to international. Once you update, you won't be able to use this method until the developers update their tool. There's also a chance that the OTA patched this method to prevent it from being used in the future, but this is still unknown. Best to wait for testers/devs to update in the forums.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ogre del:
Yeah that's what I figured lol. But sadly my phone updated while I was sleeping. Hopefully the devs can figure out how to flash international over the T-Mobile Android 10. But for now I'll happily enjoy 10 the T-Mobile way lol
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Converting from Android 10 is the same as converting from Android 9. The MSM Tools work the same way as well.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ogre del:
So all the same files work? If so that's great news
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Yes. It just takes you back to 9, then you use local update with the latest update to quickly get updated or take the OTA's as normal.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ogre del:
Awesome thanks
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] rob_z11:
I have TMobile converted to International version, and I am on the latest stable, but it won't let me run local upgrade to ob7. It starts and get hung at 87%...

I tried with and without the magisk..
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mjb337:
Converted back to T-MOBILE just to try the new Android 10 update which came rather fast right after converting. T-Mobile has something the international software doesn't have on Android 10. Google feeds are integrated in T-MOBILES version of Android 10. The phone is very fast. Think I'm sticking with T-Mobile for now until Devs create a tool to flash back internationally.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] smallsmx301:
You could have installed Nova launcher. You can get the Google feed there. I'd rather have the fast updates then wait on T-Mobile.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
The same MSM Tool that worked for Android 9 works for Android 10.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mjb337:
I'll try it out I'm thinking about rooting again but I don't know if it's possible to root T-MOBILES version of Android 10 without converting back to international
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] RandomPooka:
If you have an unlocked bootloader, the worst that could happen is that you'd have to flash the stock boot image back to it, I'd think. Extremely worst case scenario would be that you'd have to use the TMO msmtool for 9.0 and take the 10 OTA again if things get really off the rails. Not likely at all.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mjb337:
I'ma fastboot oem unlock again since I've relocked it before converting back to TMobile. I'll use payload_dumper to extract the boot.img whenever someone put up a downloadable link.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ogre del:
Quick question, besides the 2 extra TMobile crap apps and Google feed in the launcher, is there any difference between tmobiles firmware and the international? (Besides updates directly from OnePlus)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mjb337:
Will this work on T-Mobile OnePlus 7pro Android 10 with an unlocked bootloader without converting to the international op7p????
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] famewolf:
I don't recall seeing anyone say for certain that dual sim works on t-mobile with the dual sim tray. That might be an issue.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ogre del:
I really don't have a need for dual SIM. I was just wondering if it was worth my energy converting to international firmware.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] famewolf:
What you just asked is the equivalent of "Will washing my face work without actually washing my face?

The topic is "T-mobile to international" and you just asked if "this" would work "without converting to the international op7p".

---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

One thing I've found the dual sim really useful is this...you can pick up and unlimited talk and text plan for next to nothing..where they get you is typically the data....you can also pick up some nice plans for "data only" sim's intended for tablets. I have my phone currently configured to handle calls and texts on sim 1 and data on sim 2 which has unlimited data.

I get: Param Preload - a green bar - 6s - Semd project mo... but nothing more happens. I have done the following:

I have deleted all USB drivers on my PC that have anything to do with OP or Android and even many I simply could not tell if they were or were not associated. I have reinstalled the L2 .inf and .cat drivers. I am using the factory DASH cord. I know the phone is connecting because I get the connect tone from windows. I also get the connect from MSM. I have tried Vol+&-&PWR with MSM in the above condition which disconnects the phone and reconnects it again but 6secs later I am right back where I started from. I have left the phone connected and shut down MSM and restarted getting a red message but then after powering off/on I again get a connect but 6secs later back to square one. I do not have access to another PC and my computer only had the one USB port. I cant revert or go to Global or any other ROM. I have tried using All-In-One which seems to load but I still just get to the rotating OP logo. I have tried command line loading a ROM too with no effect. I basically am fully stuck and cant figure out what is going on. Can anybody help with this?

Is there a linux version of the patcher available?

Since the msm tool allows partitions to be updated while the bootloader is still locked could it not be used to put root and twrp onto the device?

Hello there

I can't understand why a such important tutorial has so many important missing inforamtion such as

> to unpack the .OPS file contained in guacamole_21.O.09_190516.7z\ next to MSM.exe

> How time each step of MSM operation is suppose to be

> Compatible with all Android Version ?

"Send project model to device success!" (in raw STATUS OF LAST COMMUNICATION) >> It is supposed the step 5 ????

This step did last only 5 sec, Progress bar is full green, now what I'm supposed to wait for or expect ?? nearly how many time ??

Both phone status are N/A from here

Hello Everyone,

I have few questions regarding converting tmobile oneplus 7 to International version.

My phone is currently sim-locked, I am planning to get it unlocked by tmobile via tmobile unlock which is preinstalled on the phone.

My question that is that if I get the phone unlocked and then converted to International version. After the conversion will the phone sim-relock again?

Will the phone receive OTA updates regularly? Lastly does anyone have any issues with android 10 with converted version far as data or sim being re-locked? thank you.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
The SIM lock of the device is not tied to the firmware the device is running. Flashing the device does not affect the SIM lock one way or another.

If you do not use TWRP or root your device and keep the International firmware stock/unmodified. You will receive OTA's for that firmware.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] sajk420:
Thank you so much for providing very helpful information and clearing some confusion. I might have posted in Oneplus 7 forum. I have oneplus 7 PRO.

Yes, after getting unlocked by tmobile, I just want use it as Oneplus unlocked devices. No rooting or any types of modification.

So as i understand now, sim lock is separate from the Firmware, once its unlocked it will stay unlock even after flashing international version.

Would you happend to know what region of international version it will flash too? Or any type of specific firmware I should look for US version when i flash using MSM Tool.

thanks again.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
The SIM will remain unlocked after flashing. Even if you choose to go back to the T-Mobile firmware. The only exception is a temporary SIM unlock. You need the permanent unlock for it to remain unlocked.

The 21AA (GM1917) firmware is the global version sold to North America, so that is the International firmware you want to flash to. Flashing will wipe your device.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] gigawatt:
Hi, if I get a temp unlock from t-mobile and then convert to international will the temp lock still apply or will I have perminent sim unlock?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jhofseth:
I think you have to permanently sim unlock before converting to be able to oem unlock.

Just got back to the States and been out of the loop my phone T-Mobile variant just updated to Android 10 can I still perform this method?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Yes, as long as the bootloader version of the firmware you are flashing to is the same or newer. You can not flash a firmware with an older bootloader version than your device currently has.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Ghost29:
So is there anything I have to do before and with my phone? I did get a Sim unlock through someone on xda. Oem in now able go unlock. Does the boot loader need to be unlocked to use msm tool and convert to international? And I'm on android 10. After pulling up msm and I follow steps man just says waiting for device and nothing happens. Please help!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jcsww:
The MSM Tool will bring you back to Android 9, which you can use the OTA or local uograde function to update. You do not need to unlock the bootloader unless you intend to flash TWRP and or root.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Ghost29:
OK, so there is nothing I need to do to use msm tool to convert to international?
