Hello everyone.

I have an IN2015 model that I want to convert from International to T-Mobile software. Can I use this tool as it says it's only for the T-Mobile model?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
No.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickdearing88:
Thanks, I found that out. How do I switch to the T-Mobile software on my phone?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
I'm not sure whether you can (nor why you would want to), but considering T-Mobile variants can convert to global with an unlocked bootloader, maybe the other way is possible but you would need a fastboot rom with T-Mobile OS, which isn't available.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickdearing88:
Ok, thanks for the info. I wanted to only because I would like to test out 5G SA, which is apparently only working when running the T-Mobile software. If you know someone who's running the global ROM and has 5G SA, please point me in their direction. I'm no expert but logic tells me that there is no reason the global ROM shouldn't be able to connect to the SA NR network as many other carriers across the globe will be using SA NR networks soon. LTE carrier agg. works fine on my phone.

Modify OnePlus 7 Pro 5G, 8 and 8 Pro, 9 and 9 Pro NR/LTE-A band combos - MT-TECH.FI

On this instruction we will modify OnePlus 7 Pro 5G, 8 and 8 Pro band combo profiles with Qualcomm software. OnePlus has limited 5G access and 4G+/LTE+ Carrier Aggregation combinations and this instruction help you to unlock. However this instruction doesn’t unlock hardware defined combinations...

Is there any chance someone can track down the MSM for the new TMo 10.5.23.IN55CB?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nathan.7118391:
This instruction only allow enable/disable 4G Carrier Aggregation & 5G EN_DC combinations and band support if hardware support it. If hardware doesn’t support, you can’t enable/disable band. Example OnePlus 8 (China) 5G doesn’t work in USA even it support n41 (T-Mobile/Sprint) band because it doesn’t support 4G anchor band used in USA.

Yes I was replying to nickdearing88 who said he had IN2015
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickdearing88:
If so, could I flash it to my phone successfully?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickdearing88:
Thanks, really interesting to checkout the CA details. As I read through the comments, I figured I'd go for it (saving a copy of the un-edited file for backup of course). But I'm on 11.0.2.2.IN21AA and apparently it won't work without root. Based on the comments, could NR-SA be enabled via NetworkSignalGuru with root? I have no objection to rooting if it's not a horrible process on this phone. Based on the FCC filing someone posted, it seems like OP will be enabling it via OTA at some point? Could this all be so locked-down due to an FCC requirement?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nathan.7118391:
You can't use the MSM tool to flash a ROM. Is strictly for recovery purposes. If your phone is not TMO origin then I would not recommend using this tool.

The root process is pretty easy but you have to do your homework. I was on this forum for months reading everything before I tried to root. Now I go from TMO to global to TMO back to global with ease. I don't even have the updated MSM, I just use the one with 10.5.7 and take the updated. Happy modding!

Hello Some_random_username,

I was wondering if I can use the msmdownloader tool oxygen is file in2015 on my Verizon OnePlus 8 in2019
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] satva49721:
Can someone please help me with getting over to global firmware after unbricking my device. Whenever I use the flash-all.bat file from the global firmware zips, I get crashdump mode. I want to get back onto 11 global.

thanks.

EDIT: nevermind, i got it. used msm to get on 10.5.7 then flashed to 10.5.9 and it didnt end up in crashdump mode.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JoeOtterson:
I'm still having trouble booting to EDL, I've tried the volume buttons, adb command, and fastboot command, but none have worked for me. When trying the volume buttons it just brings me back to fastboot mode. I don't know what else to do.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sameog:
Ah yes. I had an "issue" there as well. I'll elaborate and try to make it easy.

1. launch your msm tool and connect ONLY the end of the usb that plugs into your PC

2. Power off your phone all the way.

3. While holding down both the volume up and down keys (I use my right hand for the volume buttons), I use my left hand and plug the phone into the usb cable.

4. MSM tool "should" say connected after your computer gives you that "ding dong" windows sound.

5. Click on connect and click start. DO NOT TOUCH THE PHONE UNTIL IT REBOOTS ITSELF. (caps for emphasis)

6. for good measure, I reboot the phone back into recovery and wipe all sections, meaning these 3 sections: system setting, cache, and pictures, music, etc. I wipe all three sections 3 times to delete and wipe all old stuff so that you phone boots up clean.

7. Let me know how it goes. Yes, lots of info here but I want to give you a clean write-up and nothing half-assed. It's just the way I work. <thumbs up>
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JoeOtterson:
Thank you for the response, I actually did manage to get it back to OOS 10, I ended up trying a different USB port and it worked. That and I realized nobody was saying to hold the power button with the volume keys, so I only held onto the volume and it connected.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zrzhu:
Thanks. Your steps are really helpful. just want to share my experience of connecting the phone. If you plug in your USB cable before installing drivers, you need to unplug it after the drivers installed, so the MSM can detect your phone.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JCroffut:
Hey guys,

I know that nobody is really going to be able to help me, and im super new to all this. i used to mess with a moto x back in the day and it was much easier than trying to do all this. i recently unlocked the bootloader on my oneplus 8 tmobile version using the unlock key i recieved from them and oneplus. I (thought) i had succesfully gotten twrp on the phone, but thats where the problems begin. I attempted to flash a rom and recieved the error that it could not mount the storage and now shows 0 storage. i can still get into fastboot and into recovery, however i can literally not do anything else. if i try to flash anything it says failed to mount storage and just cycles me right back to recovery. anyways, i tried to use the unbrick tool on my home computer, but as soon as i run the application it doesnt start, and then the icon DISAPPEARS. i tried it on my laptop, and the program runs but wont recognize my phone. now i read everything on here, prob 10 times, and i understand that its a driver issue of some kind, i just cant figure out exactly how to get those drivers right. i know nobody will prob be able to help but im at a total loss with a brand new, 2 week old oneplus 8 that has been dead for one of those weeks. Moto x was so much easier. unlock, root, flash, wipe, enjoy. this phone is my living nightmare and im not smart enough to fix it....
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] kool_am:
Try a combination of drivers. Download OnePlus drivers from their website. Download adb and fastboot drivers. May need to download Google usb driver if OnePlus driver is not working. For using msm you will need to download qualcomm driver.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JCroffut:
problem is finding the drivers. i have clicked through every link i can find to try to find the right drivers and nothing is working! i def understand the prob is me not being smarter than the phone atm but i am stumped
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sameog:
oneplus drivers: https://oneplususbdrivers.com/

you might need this one as well: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634746189

After installing these drivers, I would do a reboot of your laptop/desktop to refresh. I hope this helps.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JCroffut:
i will definatly give that a try and see if it helps! youll hear back from me!
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JCroffut:
that was the ticket and the driver i needed! its currently running as we speak! omg thank you. im packing up my rooting days and stashing away from unlock token for another day when they have more material for the oneplus 8 lol. or im just to dumb to know what im doing. thats possible too! more reading in my future until i figure this out!
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zrzhu:
One thing to note is you need to disable driver signature check in windows 10. See my post here.

https://xdaforums.com/t/tmobile-oneplus-8-unlock-bootloader.4205731/#post-84166541

I started messing with my phone a couple days ago and had to do MSM. If have all drivers installed, it should work. Try different USB ports or different computer.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sameog:
Excellent! Happy to hear that the above links worked out for you. Yes, I honestly was hoping more development was in store for the oneplus 8t. The 6T had loads of development. With every new devices that gets released, new methods to root are introduced. It's a constant battle, if you will, but at the same time, I think it's fun and educational in its own way. =)
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sameog:
Finding the proper drivers is a clumsy process. Lots of people out there are still embracing samsung and apple.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JCroffut:
Well when I said packing up my days I just meant on my everyday use phone, at least until there is better development of twrp. Any suggestions on a fun rootable phone that is cheap and fun to play with? I thought I heard pixel was good
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ink718:
Pixel phones are always good because theres no hoops to go around to unlock it and root. Also to get root use this thread for in2017(tmobile) model: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-android-11-how-to-root-t-mobile-op8-5g.4228303/

For verizon use this thread: https://xdaforums.com/t/op8-oos-vzw-67cd-unbrick-tool-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4191723/
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Scott:
Not so much... If you buy a Verizon Pixel it will be locked until an exploit is found. If you buy a T-Mobile Pixel you will still have the same Network Unlock crap that all T-Mobile phones have.

If you buy straight from Google, yes, its full unlockable from the factory.

Anyone try using this tool on Android 11? I can't receive MMS/SMS messages.

UPDATE: I was bootloader unocked & rooted on Android 11. The tool was able to revert my phone back & my messages are working now. It put me back on Android 10 & i will root my phone back again. Thank you for this tool!

Just wanted to say thank you for this tool and guide. Had an issue with a used T-Mobile OnePlus 8 that was on March software update 11.0.1.2.IN55CB. System update showed a new August update was available but it would fail to install after numerous attempts and resets. Used the tool to return to Android 10 and was able to update successfully.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] AmorImpermissus:
Am hoping someone here can help me. I have an unlocked bootloader on my OP8, and was trying to flash a different rom, but it is bricked-- phone boots to crashdump mode. When I hold vol up + power to hard power off, it reboots and does not power off. This is not a result of me holding the power button too long. I release all buttons the instant the screen goes black. But instead of staying powered off, the screen stays black for about 2s and then does a little 'vibrate' and powers back on again. The result is that I can't completely power off the device in order to put it into EDL mode. Other things I've tried: releasing power and then holding down vol up + vol down the second the screen goes blank and plugging in the usb cable to a USB 2.0 port before the little vibration indicating power on occurs (this took me 30m of trying to pull off because that's a lot of things to do with two hands in less than 2s). This causes the "Fastboot" boot graphic to appear for less than a second, whereupon it goes straight back into crashdump mode. I have also tried booting straight back into fastboot mode-- same result: flashes the Fastboot icon briefly and then goes straight to crashdump mode. The only thing I have left to try is letting the power completely run out and then trying to enter EDL mode. I'm really hoping someone has some advice for me because I have no idea what else I can do. If anyone can tell me something that works I'll gladly paypal you some drinks funds. :(

Edit to add: also, I am using the stock cable. I let it run out of power overnight, but when I hold down vol up + vol down and plug it in, nothing happens. MDM is definitely open, but nothing shows up in device manager. If I press power, it shows a display for like 2s that there's not enough battery left. If I let it charge long enough to get enough battery to start, it powers on automatically and starts the crashdump mode all over again. :(
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hendavi:
Try while plug in usb cable on phone, holding vol + & - and power botton until phone reboot.

Check on windows device manager weather your phone ia in corret driver. It will show in device manager on port 9008. If not, try install the driver attaced OP.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] AmorImpermissus:
Yeah, I tried that. It never installs anything or shows up in device manager at all until after it shows the crashdump screen. When it reboots, it never goes to EDL mode at all or even tries to. Instead, it immediatley tries to enter fastboot, fails, then switches to crashdump. I tried forcibly installing the 9008 driver over the 900E driver it installs when in crashdump mode, just to be sure. If I reboot while holding +/-, it shows it offline in device manager. The phone then vibrates. It shows fastboot for less than a second. It then goes straight into crashdump mode, and _only then_ does it show up in device manager. So in other words, EDL and Fastboot devices aren't showing up in device manager at all, period, because Windows isn't even detecting anything as connected until it hits crashdump. Thanks for trying to think of something though =/
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hendavi:
I facing this problem before, on crashdump mode while cable still plug in. Press and hold vol + & - and power button ( must assure USB cable is plug in PC) . After phone reboot, hold on button until PC detect your phone ( watch on your device manager ). Because edl mode is blank screen, nothing will show on phone.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] AmorImpermissus:
So I know that I'd tried this the first 50 times before looking really, really carefully at everyone's advice to get it powered off and only then hold volumes and plug in (no power button). However, I literally received a brand new OP8 for my wife in the mail today. It also came with a brand new OEM cable. When I used *that*, it worked, and the MSM tool saw it. For anyone else encountering this problem, please consider buying a new cable. Mine was about a year old and I think it may have been damaged just enough to cause issues, even though Warp charge was still working with it.

Does anyone know of a way to oem unlock a in2017 without a token or help from tmob? The oem unlock toggle in Developer options is greyed out. "Bkerler edl" or perhaps gfil? I'm new to in2017 but not to Qfil or EDL. I don't care if I have to gut this phone. It's like the last in a long list of backups. BTW, the Network unlock button just returens and error of Error Code = 1.

Another thing is: Once I get this thing into 9008 it only stays there for a minute or 2, tops, then reboots itself.

I have a couple of LG v60s, which have the same chipset and they're take a while to boot out of 9008.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you recently flashed ColorOS or OOS Open Beta? Every time I flash an open beta, than MSM back to stock, I get a broken sim card and bootloops.

I solve this by flashing the earliest MSM, than flashing a newer MSM immedietly after. Not sure why I've had to do this, but it's a consistent issue. Kinda scary because MSM was supposed to be the end all be all to fix any issue
