Hey guys,
I'm in the market for a new phone and I am wondering, can this bootloader be unlocked? I can't seem to find an answer or any instructions as to how to do this? If someone knows how, can you share the link?
The international bootloader is unlocked. Instructions for installing TWRP are found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-...very-official-twrp-hero2lte-3-0-0-0-t3334084. The US models have locked bootloaders but are rootable. The instructions are found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-s7-edge/how-to/root-available-t3411650.

Hi guys,
Can someone point me towards a guide for unlocking my bootloader? I have rooted 5.0 and it's still stock but the bootloader is locked. I heard there was an unlock method now but I'm having trouble finding it.
Thanks!

I looked before posting but did not see the answer to this so....I have the TMobile one plus 6T sim unlocked but bootloader is still locked down (for now) is there a way without unlocking the bootloader to install the OTA's that are downloadable from the OnePlus website?

Those would be international/unlocked 6T Noms and are not compatible.
So the only way to get the updates as they are available is to unlock the bootloader and flash the international rom?

Yes. I did and I have the T-Mobile 6T. Just use the fastboot version to convert and then update to 9.0.7. But please read all the directions thoroughly, so you don't make a mistake. PM me if you need help.
Hey, i have the model number H873 which is canadian, and i looked on google and this thread etc and havent seen any possibility of bootloader unlocking

I know there has been no way to unlock the H871 bootloader before, but I found a recent article that explains how to do it: https://tweakdroid.com/bootloader/lge-lg-g6-lg-h871-lucye/
Has anyone tried this yet? Does it work or is it too dangerous? Any other thoughts?
Thank you!
