If it were stolen and "blacklisted", I doubt the device would be working fine.
Unless "blacklisted" is only effective for use in the USA, as Google suggests.
Google:
............... Blacklisted phones can’t be used in the United States, but some companies can unlock them for international use.

is there any way to tell if this phone was bought directly from google or via a carrier? In the USA or somewhere else?

That's too bad. I guess you have no other recourse.
I would contact Google, giving them the IMEI and serial number and ask what info they can provide.

Mine is a Verizon phone purchased form UAE, it also shows blacklisted but it works just fine. I receive monthly updates without any problem, even adb sideloaded android pie full OTA when it got released. Main issue with mine is that I cannot unlock its bootloader so obviously can't root it but i believe you can unlock yours and root it.

If it's working and it says it's blacklisted, it's probably a U.S. only thing as Google suggests.
Clearly someone managed to get Google financing and stopped making payments. So no, you didn't buy a stolen phone. Anyway, the blacklist carriers use here in the United States is only effective if the phone itself is in the US. In your case, where you are in Pakistan, the device will work normally even though it's blacklisted.
For a period of time there was talk of every carrier worldwide using the same blacklist, which would really ruin your day. As of now, obviously nothing has come of it.
Generally a IMEI will only be blacklisted in the country it was reported stolen.

With the new direction google seems to be going,does anyone know for sure that this phone wont be locked down? I know it sounds absurd, but this is not a nexus....any insight
Seems like if you buy the Pixel from Google you will be able to unlock. Through VZW... no. That sucker will be locked down.

It was on a live stream on CNET where i heard that too. All bootloaders except Verizon`s are unlocked appearently.
Will not be buying these phones however because of the idotic pricing in the EU mainly, 1000 euro`s for the Pixel XL ha ha.

I believe the pixel comes bootloader unlocked everywhere but verizon. I need to verify that thanks.
Or maybe comes bootloader locked but a code will be provide it by google to unlocked it everywhere but verizon.
Thanks
I sure do hope the bootloader is able to be unlocked on vzw i like having the option even if i dont use it
sticky shi..., bootloader must be unlocked, especially for that price.
Anyway, I do not need Android phone without root.
There's a statement from Deutsche Telekom answering a query from a German tech blogger that Pixels bought via that provider will also be bootloader not unlockable.
I still doubt that cause they haven't done that before. We'll see and cross our fingers...

In that case have you read that it may be impossible to unlock do to new partitioning? Which means no root. Well im fine with that. Hope people didnt buy it just for root. Dont believe me then search root google pixel phones.

Certainly not the US version but if the OEM unlock option is available in settings then I guess it's possible on the few other places that got the snapdragon.

The author made a comment claiming that the OEM Unlock will appear if the phone is left on for a week. Check it out.
I don't think that is correct though. I'm pretty sure my S9 has been left on for over a week and it hasn't appeared.

Why is USA s9/s9+ locked but others are not this seems like Sammy fell into carrier bs making them a bad brand for me I will be buying other brands b4 I'm ever locked down again..
Root ok I can deal with out if need to be but this not able to use Hotspot is driving me crazy to a point I'm considering sim unlocking my HTC 10 and going back to that this is insain

Well nothing on mine Canadian version. NO OEM Unlock
I have a Samsung Galaxy A01 (SM-A015M/DS) Latin American version, Region Panama, with Snapdragon processor. My experience posted here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/how-root-device-samsung-galaxy-a01-t4167509
The OEM UNLOCK appears but all of the usual unlock proccedure produces no Bootloader Unlock when it resets.
I bought a S20 from Swappa and I’m wondering if it’s real. Here is the report CPU Z is giving me. Can one of you with an s20 install and run this please?

Well suppose someone gets an s20 on payment plan using someone else's information. They sell the phone online and pocket the cash. The phone will work during this period.
Meanwhile, the carrier sends notices of nonpayment to the person who's idenitity was stolen. It could either be sent to collections or reported as fraud/stolen.
The phone will get blacklisted several months later, after you had been using it all that time. There are ways to determine if a phone has obligations. Just becuase you put your sim in and it works does not mean down the road it will continue to work. Unless you are 100% certain the phone is paid off, you never really know. Here's a link to the determine if the phone has a balance owed for the major carriers.

Is it possible to flash stock OxygenOS?
Yes, after a bit of time. If OP doesn't officially allow it, devs on XDA will make it possible. Should be pretty easy.

I went to the pop-up event in Shanghai and was told that as of now there is no plan for that, if you want OxygenOS you should buy the international version. But they didn't really seem to know for sure, a lot of the 'staff' there didn't seem to be 1+ employees, and weren't using +1 phones... so I'm going to wait and see how it goes.

Not at the pop-up for sure. In the past, I know you could maybe get a phone from HK JD or Tmall shipped to Shanghai etc. but you would be responsible for taxes/custom duty etc. not worth it in my opinion.
You can ask customer support center for help, maybe.
I spoke to support yesterday and they said its not possible as they're different operating systems. But as far as I'm aware isn't it possible to switch to ColorOS on the OP8 now?
I am also considering purchasing from China. But if I can't switch to Oxygen OS, give up and buy a global model.

Hii have a zfold 4 f936b bought from eBay.
It says IMEI is 00000000 and when I insert sim nothing happens.
Any idea what are my options ? Some people say is a demo phone but it don't look like some other says the user trying to root it but failed. Obviously eBay seller won't take any responsibility
Look forward for your comments.

I waited to long can't do it now . Now my only hope it's to find a way to make this work more than using it as a tablet
when you bought the phone. was it specified in the ebay description that the phone is faulty/locked/imei probelm/etc? was it ":buy as is"? if yes, then you might be in a bit of a pickle of trying to complain/return it. however, if the description said the phone was fine and had no issues: how long ago was the purchase? if you paid by paypal, i believe you have 45 days from the day you paid to lodge a dispute.

Sorry, meant to respond but was in out of service area..
Yeah, you were ripped off... Someone has done something that has wiped the IMEI number. Unfortunately it is a mother to fix, if it can be (Might lose IMEI everytime the phone is reset).
Been years since I had to play around with that and the programs I used to use probably don't work anymore, if I even had them backed up anywhere...
Unfortunately this is the risk of buying off Ebay.
May be a demo phone, all demo devices sent to retailers have no IMEI ie 00000..
Probably snatched from a TMO or VZW and reflashed.

That's neither here nor there.
All retailers (Best Buy, Walmart, etc), cellular providers, and the rest are sent demo phones with no modems to try and alleviate the chance of a snatch & grab.
Chances are extremely high it's one of those devices.

Lol, it's not here but it's there... return it. Otherwise you have a parts queen or play Android roulette and buy a used working mobo. Or buy a new mobo.
Even your 2 imei is 000000?
because sometime the 2nd remain at that point u will use an esim
therefore, Ive been in this situation in the past and the device was mine for some reason i lost the imei.
check if ur device was rooted if it was this could be one on teh reason
I paid someone he fixed it remotely at that time it costed me 20$ .
