[OnePlus 10 Pro] nuckat520:
!!WARNING!! THIS ISN'T A 100% SAFE BY ANY MEANS, IT WORKED FOR ME, BUT T MOBILE LOCKS THEIR STUFF DOWN A TON

SO BE VERY CAREFUL! DO NOT ATTEMPT WITHOUT UNLOCKING T MOBILES CARRIER LOCK, AS WELL AS PAYING OFF YOUR PHONE COMPLETELY, & THEN UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER USING MY TUTORIAL !!WARNING!!

I do not have a tutorial on unlocking the carrier as I already paid mine off and it was carrier unlocked when I paid for it. The only thing that I had to learn to unlock was the boot loader which was very weird process for me. T-Mobile is very very controlling and restrictive.

IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

ALSO, IT'S NOT GENERALLY RECOMMENDED TO USE DIFFERENT FIRMWARE, but sadly the NE2217 variant I haven't been able to find firmware for it. So this method is risky, but the only way I currently know of rooting right now.

Credits to Prant for his help; I was unsure about doing this before he gave me a super good idea. Credits also to OPTeam

These 4 people is how I figured this out so thank you for that. Main credits go to them, not to me.

My phone was already network unlocked when I got it, but only the bootloader was locked. I believe both need to be unlocked (not sure). I would unlock both, better safe than sorry, you know. Besides, unlocked = freedom over your device anyway.

I don’t know how to unlock both the network and bootloader, so if someone wants to tell me so I can add it to the thread, cool. If not, just look it up online on how to do it, I am sure there’s info available or you can ask T-Mobile themselves.

Also, make sure your device is fully paid off for the highest chance of this to work.

This first spoiler contains information on how to unlock the OnePlus 10 Pro NE2217 bootloader

Bare in mind this is the specifications of mine: OnePlus 10 Pro NE2217 14.0.0.710 (ex01)

And I used NE2213_14.0.0.710(EX01): NE2213_11.F.72_2720_202405120231 from OPTeam's thread to pull this off.

I am unsure about other builds and versions so please be careful!

I haven't used Windows in years so I apologize for any mistakes. I was also very tired while making this I triple checked it, but with my leukemia treatment and being a little sleep deprived I still might've missed somethings. Especially on the windows part since setting up a KVM or dual booting is too inconvenient for me right now. If you notice mistakes just tell me and I'll fix them. Thank you for your understanding and please remember the risks here!

SHORT WINDOWS TUTORIAL ON ADB/FASTBOOT:

Spoiler content hidden.

This is a Linux tutorial, but a lot of the commands specifically the adb & fastboot ones are the same as Windows. I've made a short windows tutorial that may not be 100% accurate since I haven't used Windows in years so I apologize beforehand. I prefer linux what can I say, you know. Lol.

Main Tutorial:

The idea he had was you could test the patched boot.img by booting into it without flashing it. That way if somethign does go wrong it SHOULD boot back into the original boot.img without any harm done.

CREDITS/FINAL STATEMENT:

Bare in mind that this could still be risky and I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device. I'm only sharing what worked for me for future reference! Thank you to users: Prant & OPTeam as well as ssut who made payload-dumper-go all of which where vital in pulling this off. No credit to me they were the OGs here so send love their way, not mine. Credits also to BeatBreakee as his thread gave me a lot of insights as well.
