Nope, and you can't toggle "OEM Unlock" while SIM locked. I just followed the guide (after backing up persist.img ofc) then I flashed my ROM of choice, which is AOSIP.

Note: you have to do fastboot reboot fastboot when flashing a rom, otherwise you get the 'partition not found' error, which doesn't seem to work when using Windows command prompt. I think the powershell works, haven't tried it as I can reboot into that using macOS/Linux. Yes, fastboot reboot fastboot, not bootloader.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Gamesoul Master:
You most definitely can. I SIM unlocked twice, and it let me toggle the OEM Unlocking both times with no problem. I wonder though... I'll have to try it without turning OEM Unlocking on. I'm not sure how that would make a difference, but each time I tried running this, I had toggled it first, assuming that it was some unspoken, necessary step. Maybe I was overthinking it though. Though even if I was, I'd be surprised if the other people who failed had checked that option.

I'm pretty sure I rebooted fastboot. Using Powershell (which I'm not a fan of, but still). Although the second and third time I tried this, I just tried following the directions exactly, and the phone still wouldn't boot. Also, the instruction to use "fastboot continue" failed. Should be irrelevant, but I had to manually use the phone buttons to tell it that unlocking is okay on that step... lol.

Thing is, I'm not quite sure how any of these things would make partitions apparently disappear on the phone. I mean, stranger things have happened. But I'll give it some more attempts in the next day or two. I wanted to do some solid brainstorming to work out various possibilities first. Because I'd rather not try a new thing every night and have to reinstall my data each night. This is also my work phone, after all.

Also, just want to thank you for responding. To get this working for all of us, I'm going to need all the feedback I can get. And as somebody who it actually worked for, your feedback should be quite useful :)
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Superboy58:
People I sent the tool to test it reported it to work, but faced the same issue:

they had to flash again their boot partition so the phone would boot.

Edit: you don't need to toggle any settings in Android before flashing this. Flashing with msm tool will erase both system and data so it doesn't matter which settings were on or off before flashing. Everything is lost after the flash.

Plus, the setting "OEM unlock" is already enabled by default in the rom that the msm tool is flashing to the phone, which allows to run the unlock command without booting to Android, which we are unable to because of the warning "device corrupt" (it's part of the trick).

So I have an unrooted 7T pro Mclaren I'm planning to root. I've rooted an ATT Note 3 but that was completely different in the usual way of rooting. I do not have a sim unlock yet, so this is my current option for unlocking the bootloader. I just want to make sure I'm doing things right.

If I go to root, I unlock the bootloader with this, then follow the main root guide, starting of at the fastboot TWRP step, then follow it to the end to root.Then optionally fix OTA with the reserve.img OTA fixer. Correct?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] omariscal1019:
yes.. also when u use the tool dont let it boot up after msm is flashed.

when u see msm say download complete unplug phone and hold the volume up and down buttons until it boots in fastboot mode then run the command to unlock the bootloader.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Globel:
this works with 10.0.37.HD61CB?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Superboy58:
Doesn't matter which version you currently run.

The MSM tool will replace whatever software is in the phone, and will install the 10.0.36.

Thanks to [MENTION=10498651]Betrayy[/MENTION]

Updated instructions:

- Open the modded msm tool, uncheck sha 256 box, select target to TMO

- connect phone in EDL mode

- start the msm tool to get it running

- after the tool shows download complete in green letters, IMMEDIATELY disconnect phone and hold vol up + down to reboot into bootloader

- shift and then right click (on blank space), open powershell and then type cmd

- then type the command - 'fastboot flashing unlock_critical'

- select unlock on phone and the phone will automatically reboot and bootloader is unlocked

Same. Bootloader unlocked via these instructions, Rooted via the rest of the root thread instructions, then ran ota fixer for 10.0.0.36 via those instructions. Sadly OTA install returns "Installation Problem". Looking for ideas.

Good afternoon,

I haven't done anything on any phones for a while, so I apologize if this question sound really noobish. I am looking to Root and install ROMs. If I run this program will the phone be rooted? Does this phone need to be rooted or just the bootloader unlocked to install ROMs? The biggest thing I want to do, is install Roms, and Viper4Droid for audio purposes. I am pretty sure that in order to install Viper4Droid I need to be rooted. Any help is appreciated.

My phone is completely stock and my build number is: 10.0.37. HD61CB

Thanks,

Nate

Hello Everyone.

Its been awhile since I have been on XDA and its great to be back on the 7t Pro McLaren :D

I think I may have figured this out by panic testing...always my go to :cool:

I followed the instructions by the OP and I too was stuck in fastboot on 10.0.39, and unable to flash the boot.img he provided. Tripping out a little, decided to play with some options with this tool.

https://xdaforums.com/7t-pro-mclaren/how-to/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t4103513

Under the bootloader, I hit the "unlock" and decided to push the "I have a normal device" button. The GUI to unlock the bootloader showed up on my phone and I clicked my way to an unlocked bootloader! Since I have been able to flash the boot.img as described in the OP.

One of the rare instances my panic resolutions have enabled a first time go without bricking the device. Hope this helps someone else!

Edit: broke OTA as well
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Superboy58:
Currently compressing the new tool for 10.0.39. Didn't had the chance to test it, can someone test and report if it works ?

Worst that can happen is soft brick: you just have to flash a stock MSM image to get back on track 100% working as before.

It should be linked in 1hour or so.

Okay, so it finished the download as complete on MSM tool. However, when I try the "fastboot flashing unlock_critical" command, it doesn't understand that command.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Superboy58:
That command indeed exists.

If it's not recognized it's because your fastboot.exe on your computer is not up to date.

Okay, so I tried "fastboot oem unlock" and that worked.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Superboy58:
[MENTION=2346741]supertweak15[/MENTION] maybe your adb and fastboot executable that are launched when you type commands in cmd are not the one you think.

Just check what's the output of "fastboot --version".

If it's an old version running, you should look into the "windows system environment variables" to check if a path exist to another adb / fastboot exists in the PATH variable.

EDIT: fastboot oem unlock is a deprecated command. It works, but does not do exactly the same. You will not be able to write to critical partitions with a simple "fastboot oem unlock". If it's enough for your usage, you're fine.

EDIT2: about the boot.img, I didn't linked it, so yes you might need it. Here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/file/tt6c58u519d8ktc/boot.img_10.0.39.7z/file

I've had no real issues 'using' these the tools provided here and think they are great.

I've had no problems with OTA after using this or the Unbrick Tool. (the MSM tool was updated to 5.0.17 though. Hope that's ok as it's not version 4 per instructions).

I want to mention though, in case it's useful, that I experienced the wrong model number showing after using the .39 unlock bootloader tool (mentioned by someone earlier in this thread). When the phone updated itself via OTA, while wrong model number was displayed, it either updated my device to Global or a beta because it was displaying an OS 11 version with a ".5" in there and I had been reading current comments (about a month ago) that 11.0.1.4 was just being released. I can't comment on any issues because the ones I had during this time were present well before I ever used MSM, unlocked bootloader, rooted, etc... (Edit: It's possible I may not have selected TMO on that run but I can't be sure)

I do have one question...The patched MSM tool for unlocking bootloader does not pass MD5 when using the verify button. It's likely, but I don't want to assume that's because of the patch. Can someone please confirm, share a clean download if that's not the case or is there an MD5 for the downloaded zip file itself that I missed? Thanks in advance for any help.
