Now that the global Rom is available as a download, has any one flashed it using crazn's instructions for the eu rom? Any feed back or issues? How are the data speeds? Are you flashing the TMO modem? If so, is the fingerprint still working after that? Please discuss.

Sweet. Just downloaded it to use as a base for the TWRP flashable LineageOS 18 ROM for the T-Mobile OnePlus 8T that will come later.

I am currently on global. Flashed it after being on TMO Stock Rom that was rooted. I followed Crazn's method from this thread, [GUIDE] Convert TMO to Global, EU, or other variant | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com) but extracted my own from the playload bin file. So far no issues at all. I patched the boot.img file using magisk. But remember to flash the non-rooted stock boot.img for the global rom first.. boot it up and then flash the magisk patched boot.img. I tried directly flashing a patched boot.img and it wouldn't boot up all the way.

I'm planning on converting over to the Global Rom today. Couple questions.... I'm not rooting or anything. So I run the flash all.bat from the fastbootd screen pictured in the OP from that thread, or do I select English and let it boot to fastboot? Then I unzip the file in the Fastboot adb tool folder and then enter flashall.bat in the cmnd prompt right? Once it's done flashing can't I just boot into the OS or do I need to reboot and wipe everything?

You don't need to select English.. As long as it says "fastbootd" on the top, you are good to go.
Yes, you can simply run flash_all.bat. Make sure though that you have the latest fastboot.exe (not the one in crazn's upload) in the folder where flash_all.bat and other images are. If not, it'll fail. I believe if you download the conversion folder directly from crazn's upload, he has a version of fastboot there that doesn't work. So make sure you replace it with the latest from google platform tools. Remember to wipe everything by using the recovery menu before booting your phone for the first time after flashing.

I had converted to EU before global was available and I just used Oxygen updater to download global and manually installed it right on the phone.

Hi Guys,
Long story short, I bought the LeEco Pro 3 US version due to the awesome Tmobile network support. The modem supports band 12 and WiFi calling and I was happy with it. But eventually notification issues and the horrible EUI got under my skin and I decided to install CM13 keeping the phone as untouched as possible so that I can revert back to stock whenever needed.
I followed below steps:
1. Enabled developer options and enabled USB debugging.
2. Went the Developer Options and enabled OEM Unlocking.
3. Did adb reboot bootloader to get into the bootloader menu.
4. Did fastboot unlock-go command to unlock the bootloader. I noticed that if I did this command and rebooted the phone, the phone reverted back to being locked again. But I could run the command again from bootloader screen and unlock it (as long as the developer options had the OEM unlocking enabled). So I was never permanently unlocked, just unlock at will whenever I wanted.
5. Then I downloaded the twrp.img file and from fastboot screen i did fastboot boot twrp.img, which booted me inot twrp screen. I was able to switch the language to english but i didnt do the permanent system modification. I did not root the phone as well through the menu.
6. Now, I plugged in a USB OTG drive in the phone. Usb OTG drive had CM13 ROM + Gapps on it.
7. Using the TWRP menu, I did a factory data reset and made a backup of all partitions of the LeEco Phone and saved it into USB OTG drive.
8. Then I installed the CM13 rom on the phone. Followed by Gapps and then rebooted the phone. The phone wouldnt boot.
9. I immediately rebooted the phone into the fastboot menu and tried to run the fastboot boot twrp.img, and got an error message that the device is not unlocked. Which is when i noticed that the phone is bricked.
So Long story short, I have a locked bootloader and I want to to retain my modem. I was given a suggestion to boot into the stock recovery and put the x720 update.zip file and install it. But that would flash the CN modem as well. Can I delete the modem file from the CN rom and flash the update.zip? Can someone help me there? All I want is the modem for the US rom and CM13, thats it.
Thank you guys for reading this post, it helps to talk to XDA about such issues, my wife would just kick my butt because I broke a phone, again!
Did you wipe the system using twrp before installing CM?

No I didn't wipe the system before installing CM13. Usually the ROM installation scripts do system wipes.
This is the reason why I am hesitant to do this thing as there are no clear (step-by-step) procedures and there is no solid benefit (in fact your will lose some features). Can't it be possible to just create a CM or any other ROM that could be downloaded and rename into update.zip and load it directly renaming the X720 ROM? ^_^
Try unlocking bootloader again with fastboot method as you didn't do it the first time. Then try fastboot boot twrp.img

He will not be able to unlock again due to the fact that he installed CM13 on an unlocked bootloader. I did read where you can flash the CN bootloader on a locked bootloader. Look at post #44 from the "X727 (US Model) Persistent bootloader unlock from 5.8.019s" thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/development/x727-model-persistent-bootloader-unlock-t3500388
"I finished the setup and run fastboot again and it is good so for anyone having the same issue as I was having of not able to unlock, just run: Fastboot Flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn get the file from dr4stic zip file"
Followed by post #47:
"Yeah I can confirm that flashing the aboot worked like dish soap on a squeaky hinge."
If that doesn't work then you will need to install the CN rom using the stock bootloader.

1. Download the rom from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=601275311581036717
2. Unzip and extract the NON-HLOS.img file.
3. Reboot into fastboot mode.
4. Flash the modem "fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.img"
You will not notice a change in the modem version in "About Phone" as they both report Baseband version MPSS.2.0.c1.9.1-00010. Who knows, they may be the same.

Okay, if you chose to use the long route and installed the Chinese ROM, you can still get back to the full US version, complete with all LTE bands. dr4stic is responsible for this gem, and was my way back to US ROMdom.

Sorry for the late answer but to add to that, it happened to me that the ROM didn't have a wipe script thus bricking another of my device. I reinstalled it after wiping the system and it worked.

Can you elaborate on what didn't work?
The thread about factory images of OB 3 contains all the stock image of OB3, in fact, it even restores more files than the one provided on essential website.
It should be the way to go because the script has also been edited so that it restores both partition A and B, making the bootloader locking process more safe
Take any version you wish https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/development/stock-7-1-1-nmj20d-t3701681
but make sure you take full dumps.
By the way, flash-all.bat is for Windows, flash-all.sh is for Mac and Linux

I recently flashed my 6T to stock from EvolutionX and locked the bootloader, and somehow in the process, it seems my keyboard isn't able to display or type any emojis. The steps I followed are:
HTML:
1. fastboot reboot bootloader
2. fastboot boot twrp
3. flash latest OOS
4. reboot bootloader
5. fastboot boot twrp
6. flash OOS
7. boot system
8. reboot bootloader
9. fastboot oem lock
10. boot system and setup (sign in to google, etc)
Is there any step that I missed, or any way to recover this without rooting/unlocking again?

Reflash your ROM through stock recovery ..
You're missing the reserve partition cause you've flashed through twrp..
If you still dont have emoji
root your phone and flash this module

Yes, but not using the guide on XDA. Not sure if that guy had an actual TMO device at all or if his method is just broken but of all the TMO users I've talked to including myself thats not how you succesfully end up on global.
The only way I've ever succesfully ended up on Global OOS11 is as follows.
1.) MSM back to TMO v10.7. No ther MSM version will work as thats the lowest TMO firmware that has a sequential update on global that we have fastboot files for.
2.) After flashing to TMO 10.7 don't take any OTA's. Go right into settings and enable OEM unlocking. Immedietly unlock your bootloader and flash the Global 10.9 ROM through fastboot.
3.) Once booted into the global ROM, take all OTA's (there will be more than one to take so double check)
After that your golden, and you can relock your bootloader if you don't plan on rooting.
Me and another TMO user went through a lot of these MSM flashes and fastboot updates. These are the only versions we could get working that didn't send us into crash dump mode. Feel free to do your own expirimenting.
thanks for the detialed guide bro.. ill stay in touch ..i may need further guidance.once i get my unlock token and unlock my bootloader ...another question ...do you recommend backing up persist or modem? did you face any fingerprint or connectivity issues? ive heard the eu rom supports dual sim and less conmection issues ..

Yes, but not using the guide on XDA. Not sure if that guy had an actual TMO device at all or if his method is just broken but of all the TMO users I've talked to including myself thats not how you succesfully end up on global.
The only way I've ever succesfully ended up on Global OOS11 is as follows.
1.) MSM back to TMO v10.7. No ther MSM version will work as thats the lowest TMO firmware that has a sequential update on global that we have fastboot files for.
2.) After flashing to TMO 10.7 don't take any OTA's. Go right into settings and enable OEM unlocking. Immedietly unlock your bootloader and flash the Global 10.9 ROM through fastboot.
3.) Once booted into the global ROM, take all OTA's (there will be more than one to take so double check)

I figured out how to do this - important to choose "Other" on MSM login.

This worked great for me. Last step is downloading full 11.0.2.2.IN21AA OTA and extracting the boot.img so I can easily root it. From there, this is a great path and guide. Sorta a long process, but it's nice to have the phone clean without TMO bloat.

I was attempting to root my OnePlus 8 5G and it was a pain looking for the boot.img. Thankfully my friend squabbi from MaowDroid, found a OTA in a telegram channel (https://t.me/s/OPUpdatesTracker?q=11.0.1.1.IN55CB) and was able to extract the boot.img. From there the processes was the same as with any other phone with Magisk. I hope this helps out some people and prevents multiple headaches.

Made this little project using the script from @mauronofrio FASTBOOT ROMs to return OP8 to latest OOS, since I was always having issues doing so, and always ended up using the unbrick tool for OP8.
Enjoy! If you have any issues, just let me know using a post.
Regards.

I have a T-Mobile device, which I converted to Global and finally installed a custom ROM. For any updates, I have to follow the same route - go back to T-Mobile, then global and then any other ROM. Can I use this utility to go back directly to Global from custom or would I still need to first flash T-Mobile ROM?

Technically, this process would be the same as a conversion. Just see if you need to backup any other extra partition, like persist.img or other.
Regards.
thank you so much for this, ive been stuck or soft bricked for the last 4 days and this might just be my out.
Hi, thanks for this! Now I have a question, I have latest OOS with Magisk, but since upgrade to 11 i have System UI crashes and serious lags and freeze, I did 4 factory resets and its still there, I want to reflash all from 0, can I use this?
Thank you very much for the contribution

There's a self extracting file (*.exe) inside the zip file. Have you run it, and checked the extracted files?

Thanks -- I didn't notice it was an executable. I think I'm ready to go, but just checking. Here's what I've done so far with my T-Mobile version OnePlus 8:
1. completed process to unlock the bootloader (unlocked phone, got token, applied token)
2. set up fastboot in a directory on my Windows PC
3. ran the self-extraction on OnePlus8Oxygen_15.E.35_OTA_0350_all_2103221815-FASTBOOT
Now I'm going to run flash-all.bat. Before I do that, do I need to back up any files, e.g. modem files? Thanks!

backup persist.img and modem.img just in case, and you should be ok to go.
PS: i'm going to upload the fastboot rom without the self extracting method to be easier for users.

@infected_ Considering that I am coming from an unlocked bootloader, will this method re-lock the bootloader and is this carrier-branded compatible?

Safe to use for Verizon OP8 5G UW or is this a method to go Global from a carrier-branded version?

sorry for another simple question; I haven't done system level things with Android in a long time. Where are instructions on how to backup those files? I did a little searching, but haven't found anything that works yet.

Thanks! Now I realize that even though I have an unlocked bootloader, I don't have root access. Now I have to figure out how to get that. Sigh.
And...I see much conflicting information on how to root my bootloader unlocked T-Mobile version OnePlus 8. Any advice/pointers to info on the best/easiest way to root it?
