I have a oneplus 6t t mobile, sim unlocked but bootloader still locked, android 10. is the only way to unlock the bootloader on the tmo 6t to wait a week for the unlock token?
yes use msmtool. You have to flas it it from tmobile to global then you can do fastboot oem unlock
Token doesn't take that long to get just fill out the form and then you'll always have it

I just ordered a tmobile 6t from b&h photo that has been "unlocked" by tmobile for resale. After reading around I am assuming that I will have to have a token also.......where do you go to fill out the form exactly?? 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 guys i have the tmobile 6t and pay for it monthly on tmobile
i unlocked it and put latest 9.0.11 oxygen os on it
does this mean I can use it on ATT or verizon? I'm not sure if its actually sim unlocked without finding someone elses SIM in there. I know i had to sim unlock to unlock the bootloader but will I still be able to use it on verizon or ATT or another tmobile account?
thanks!

If you flashed the international's ROM, it's now SIM unlocked.

I read in the unlocking thread that flashing the international rom allows the bootloader to be unlocked, but not the phone itself. I don't have a different SIM to test my theory, though.
You must request a Sim unlock from T-Mobile. If you did the recent msmtool where you flashed to international version of oos. You would need to reflash with msmtool for tmo in order to request the unlock Sim code. Using the msmtool to flash international does not Sim unlock. That is done through the Sim unlock app installed on tmo 6t os. And must be requested and approved by Twitter for the unlock Sim code. Which you can do through TMobile Twitter, higher success rate

Does Oneplus6T ( lock sim) or unlock tempory sim can flash to international version? And can use without Lock sim?
Does the bootloader need to be locked for a V20 to be sim unlocked? I'm looking to buy a service on eBay to unlock my V20 but I'm wondering what is needed for me to be unlocked, like a locked bootloader or rooted
Any help would be appreciated

I think T-mobile's (h918) unlock app checks safetynet (can probably be fooled by setting it in magisk hide). Other models that ask for an actual unlock code it probably doesn't matter.

Yeah I think as long as I flash a stock rom I'd be fine, but I still have yet to find a good service that isn't $70.
so i live in the us. I was going to get a S8 in a trade im in need of a new phone any more but its sprint and Im on tmobel
what are the chances it has a sim lock i dont think i request for a unlock has been put into sprint.
just buy a sim unlock and Im good to go right? Any problems with the s8 supporting tmoble bans?
What would it take to unlock the boat load and flash a rom. Will the boat loader be able to be unlocked.
I did look this up but im seeing conflicting answers thanks for reading my post.

Their are paid services to sim unlock it
as for the bootloader it cannot be unlocked
perm locked
you can follow the edl rev 6 thread and possibly get root on nougat but no unlocked loader
Title says it all. I'm just curious if it's possible.
Thanks in advance !

What? Im assuming over asked question?
I mainly ask because at one point there was a way around it with the one plus 6t. So i wasn't sure if there was a way currently with the 7T Pro.
Far as I know there has not been a guild without it
Short answer: no. Unlock code is needed and MSM Tool can only flash T-Mobile software now.
After the device is paid off AND been on the network for 40 days THEN you can get an unlock code
EVEN if the device isn't from the original owner AND YES: it HAS to be registered on a POST PAID account for 40 days for this to work, prepaid has different LONGER rules and I forgot them.
So how do you get an unlock code?
And to clarify a SIM unlock code not token from oneplus. I know how to do the latter.

Both incorrect. Apparently no one can read the title of threads in our subforums before either asking questions or answering them incorrectly.
@15jpenni
A hacked MSM version was made that allows you to unlock the bootloader and therefore root your phone with Magisk. It won't, however, carrier unlock the phone from T-Mobile vs. if you properly unlock the phone through T-Mobile as the official method that @RypeDub mentioned. Try reading the thread and see how u can do it unofficially:
T-Mobile 7T Pro 5G McLaren bootloader unlock without SIM unlock/OnePlus unlock token!
Here is a patched MSM download tool for TMobile OP7T Pro 5G McLaren. It will bypass the need to sim unlock before unlocking the bootloader, and will also bypass the need of an unlock token file from OnePlus (hence skip the wait period of 1 week...
