[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] XD-MOD2-9MM:
Hell ya glad it worked!!! I had the same issue converting my 7T. Figured out everything then it went smooth ??
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] XD-MOD2-9MM:
It is my understanding (since I asked a page or 2 back) that you don't need to flash the T-Mobile modem. MSM to 9.5.7, then unlock bootloader, then run flash all, then update to latest build. People say the modem is intact. I'm no genius though, just a messenger lol ??
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gerguter:
Update before you unlock bootloader and flash all.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
I have just read this whole thread and I believe that the author of the thread a little ways back said to MSM, then unlock bootloader, then flash all? I read something about you need to flash global, then do the updates to get the modem working correctly? Any confirmation? Thank you
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gerguter:
Update, then unlock bootloader, then flash all, then update.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
I don't think that's correct. The OP stated differently about 10 posts ago. MSM, then unlock bootloader, then flash all, then update. Pretty sure the OP is correct
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gerguter:
Ok.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
You are correct msm. Unlock bl. Flash all. Update. But I'm here to tell you guys I took the bootloader lock plunge and came out just fine??? as you can see I'm on T-Mobile with signal and a locked bootloader which you can tell by the L1 widevine cert I have ?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ab2233:
I finally went through and attempted this. I updated to 10.5.10 and used msm to 10.5.7. unlocked bootloader again, flashed all with 10.5.7 global, went well, rebooted, no signal. updated to 10.5.9 via ota, still no signal. flashed the tmobile modem someone uploaded in this thread, still no signal. what do i do?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
Thanks for the info! I need to lock my bootloader but want to convert and this seals that deal.

Have you gotten any OTAs since converting?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dameon87:
MSM back to TMobile 10.5.7. Unlock bootloader. Convert to global, then update.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ab2233:
Update. Sorry [MENTION=1314742]Dameon87[/MENTION] I didn't see your response before I tried what [MENTION=4357743]gerguter[/MENTION] recommended which worked like a charm. MSM, update, unlock bootloader, flash all, update. Working with signal now. Now time to root!
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
You get an ota as soon as you convert. I'm not sure about any more but assuming how OnePlus does it I'm positive I'm good to go lol
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
Does this effectively convert our devices to dual SIM devices? I understand that the SIM tray is an obvious limitation, until I change it out.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NikoZBK:
Afaik, the global ROM does not have dual SIM support, at least for NA, unlike older OnePlus phones like the 6T.. Please correct me if I'm wrong
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
Any way to do this, without going through unlocking it?? Hoping to do it with a T-Mobile version.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Milly7:
Must be unlocked.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
You mean the bootloader, right?? That's what I wanted to avoid. On the 7 Pro, you could flash to an international ROM, and keep the bootloader locked.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Yeah sadly you have to bootloader unlock first now. Implementations to the msm tools are still being worked on but with every device OnePlus releases security gets tighter and tighter
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
I understand, thank you. Is there a way to re-lock bootloader after we've updated to Global?? Just via the fastboot command, right?? I don't mind having it locked, don't really care for root, or flashing custom, would just like beta updates.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Yes. I have done this. But make sure you flash the flash all then update via ota and then lock bl after the ota
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Seems the small otas fail but the full ones work just fine.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Full worked just fine.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
Great. And if something goes wrong, or if I need to flash back to T-Mo software, I can via MSM??

Edit: Nvmd, found the answer. Saw the MSM thread in the OP. Thanks so much!! I'll try it out as soon as I get my token unlock from OnePlus!! Thanks again!!
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
How long have you been waiting? Im 1 week in on waiting.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
The OnePlus 8 Global ROM has dual SIM disabled, but the hardware physically supports it. If you go into the network settings there's a disclaimer that it's coming in a future OTA update. :confused:
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] lordcheeto03:
This is the first OnePlus device I've bought from a carrier; my 3T and 6T were directly from OnePlus.. that being said, once I flash the global rom, can you use the global msm tool if I encounter an issue which requires the msm tool or do I still have to use the T-Mobile version and go back through flashing the global firmware again?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] joemossjr:
Nope cannot use global tool sadly. Use tmobile
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
For anyone who is going to convert, I just did it and ran into issues. Here's what I did:

1. Msm back to 10.5.7, unlock bootloader, flash all, and update to 10.5.9 global.

I had no signal after the initial flash all and still had no signal after the ota.

Second time around I did this:

2. Msm back to 10.5.7, update, unlock bootloader, flash all, ota update and relocked bootloader.

I had signal right after flashing the global fastboot ROM, prior to even doing the OTA.

I think it's safe to say #2 is the best option for those of us converting now.

Also, seems like incremental OTAs can fail. It reverts to downloading the full package after failing on incremental OTA and updates just fine.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] knightsh:
Have a question for you guys that have successfully converted. Why are y'all using the msm to downgrade to the T-Mobile 10.5.7? Is it not possible just starting on the most recent firmware? 10.5.10 I believe.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
Based on my experience, I feel like you have nothing to lose to just unlock bootloader and then running the flash all. If it doesn't work out, you could just msm to 10.5.7 and do it the way we know works for sure.

I had signal even on global 10.5.7 the second attempt I made.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
T-Mobile OnePlus 8 Global convert

I think I'll wait for this global (international) convert to be official by WhoAreYou of XDA which they're currently working on. I don't want to f up my OnePlus 8. I just got it 2 week ago.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xander24777:
I'm confused about whether this works or not. Can someone verify that this works? How do I go about it? Follow the OP or do something different? I should be getting my unlock token from oneplus tonight so I'm almost ready to try this
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
Yes it works. Msm to 10.5.7 tmobile, then update, then unlock bootloader, then flash all and update. I did it two nights ago and I received 10.5.10 OTA yesterday. The incremental OTA failed but then it downloaded the full version and installed.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
There will never be an official conversion. This is the best you get, and this does work perfectly fine if you can follow directions. If you don't know what's going on here, then this isn't for you

---------- Post added at 02:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 AM ----------

That's not the correct way, and that an extra unnecessary step. MSM, unlock bootloader, flash all, then update. That's the correct steps and have been confirmed by multiple people in this thread. Please can people stop adding their own guide here?

[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
This method did not work for me. Had no signal after flash all to global and the update. I reverted back via msm tool, updated, then unlocked bootloader, flash all and had signal before ever having to update.

So that step was necessary for me, once it failed the first time.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
honestly that didn't make any sense because you obviously have to update after you flash the flash all. Probably had no signal because you didn't flash The flash all from the correct fast boot. Make sure you are in fastboot d and not the bootloader screen ??. OP directions are very clear. Works like a charm. if anybody thinks that a different method works, then maybe a new thread should be made? Not sure why there are multiple random users posting a separate guide than what is listed in post #1. Clutters this thread up and makes NOTHING clear
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
I did follow the directions step for step. Not sure what you tried to say with your first sentence though, I didn't say anything about not doing the update after the flash all, other than I got signal the second time around without having to do the update after the flash all. The only difference I made in my two attempts were I updated, via OTA, after the initial msm. I could not get any signal the first time I did it yet, I got signal just fine after the flash all the second time around.

I want to reiterate that I followed the steps exactly. I went through the pages of this thread and read every post while waiting for my unlock code from OnePlus.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
It's been said numerous times that if you aren't on 10.5 .7 you are going to encounter issues. That's why MSM back to 10.5.7 is necessary. updating past that before you flash the flash all is going to encounter issues - as has been previously stated in this thread numerous times. Please follow OP instructions. If you feel as if you have a new method that works, a new thread should be started. This thread is getting cluttered with 100 different ways about doing this when post #1 clearly states the correct way. Thanks for understanding
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
I never said not to msm back to 10.5.7. I did that on both attempts. Weird that you rolled with that but okay. The facts don't change, I followed the OP instructions and it failed. I added one step and it worked fine for me. I'm not alone if you look back a few pages, some others went through the same issue. It's important that others know this before they attempt, in case they get stuck.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ab2233:
Listen guys, this is the appropriate way to go about doing it. I'm tired of people saying "no that's not the right way", I tested several different methods and unfortunately OP needs to update because doing that method causes you to have no signal. First you want to be up to date on firmware. Then MSM to 10.5.7 with the provided link in OP. update again once that is done, unlock bootloader, flash all, update. That method will work but I am not taking any credit from OP or anyone else, I just want to give people updated instructions that worked for me and hopefully you get the same results which you should if followed correctly.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
Exactly. All I'm doing it providing my scenario and steps I took to make it work(which seem to be the same steps as you).
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
I just submitted mine the same day that I wrote that message. Took about a week, the last time I did it.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
Did you ever get your unlock token?? I'm hitting a week now.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] parsa5:
Got it right at the 1 week mark, to the hour.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] knightsh:
Okay guys. Noob question. When getting the unlock code using fast boot there is two lines of numbers and letters. Do we just use the first line or do we need both when applying for the unlock token? Also, as for the serial number needed to get the unlock token. My box shows an 8-digit serial number, a SIM serial number and handset serial number which is labeled as the IMEI. I'm assuming it's the 8-digit serial number needed for the unlock token?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] crackerjack9249:
Did that but I had to unlock the bootloader 1st before the MSM (T-MO) but on the global with signal now.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mexiken:
Both lines, and the 8 digit one.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] marcus37:
So u were able to transfer the TMobile branded to international?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jacob O Link:
When I type fastboot flash fast-all it says the image filetype cannot be determined. Am I missing something?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jacob O Link:
Update: it is a bat file lol I'm dumb. I got it installed, on the 10.5.7 global version, however I followed the instructions perfectly and my fingerprint sensor is not working. The only thing I haven't done is update to the latest oxygenOS version. Do I need to do that?

UPDATE 2: after reading comment OP did not have the persist backup in the instructions and I did not do it, can I ever come back from this? It is my fault, I should have read more.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gerguter:
No worries. Just MSM back to Tmobile and start over.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jacob O Link:
Thank you SM. I lost my air for a second there haha. Already on it!

Actually, [MENTION=4357743]gerguter[/MENTION] I just MSM back to 10.5.7 and it did not fix my fingerprint sensor, Any other ideas?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zander21510:
Coming up on my 1 week tomorrow...I wonder why they make you wait for a week, clearly it's an automated process as you can't even request it till you get sim unlocked, and I requested just a few hours after getting sim unlocked. My old Motorola Z and Z4, they both just generated the code immediately. They weren't T-Mobile models though I guess...but I still don't get the double waiting period.

[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
Reading must be though ?? I'd read #3 of the old instructions. Says to restore modem through TWRP ??*♂️
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pro_granade:
My bad, but go in this thread and search for "modem.bin" you'll only find 3 posts about the info I knew.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MNBatman080715:
It's all good man we're all here to help. It's damn near impossible to find anything here because everything and this thread is pretty cluttered because everybody keeps posting their own guides, posting their own links etc. Lemme know if you get it working ??
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pro_granade:
Well I broke my fp scanner in the process so I gotta fix that now lmao

EDIT: The guide requires MSM flashing to some old OOS for the non tmo variant, uh oh

Kernel Performance

That is fantastic! :)

But I would like to know what is the maximum frequency allowed by this kernel. I am now using the LineageOS 17.1 ROM but the kernel does not allow me to modify the governor or the frequency. I would like to know if that happens with this kernel too. Also, the maximum frequency is 1800MHz and 1296MHz when the normal frequency of the exynos7420 is 2.1GHz and 1.5GHz.:silly:

AOSP roms won't support samsung specific features, although basic spen might work fine, but don't expect a fully featured versions of samsung apps to work.
