Just use the msm tool to flash your. Phone
Hi.
I bought an HD1900 model myself. It was delivered with the Playstore and therefore under OxygenOS.
Mine was on OxygenOs (India).
To update to a version of OxygenOs global, no need to use the restore tool and unlock the bootloader, to put your Oneplus in Global version.
You just need to download the Rom via this link in Global version: HD65AA Global 10.0.7
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7t/how-to/oneplus-7t-repo-oxygen-os-builds-t3997037
Paste the Zip version of the ROM in the root storage of your phone and in the settings of your phone \ update \ local update, flash the download zip.
the ROM Zip file can also be downloaded with the Oxygen updater application.

I would highly suggest not locking, or re-locking the bootloader(IF you plan on doing any modification). I've seen plenty of people end up in a pickle with locked bootloader and completely bricked phone. My suggestion is to definitely keep it unlocked/unlock it.

Good advice! I managed to brick my Pixel 3aXL by trying to unroot. Thank god it was still under warranty and Google sent me a refurb but I have my 7T now so off to eBay the Pixel goes.

Got a new RN5 China version yesterday. It came with 9.5.12A Chinese ROM. I'm going to flash global ROM by myself to get all Google service and debloated. Found some posts here regarding flashing global from 9.5.13. However, have 2 questions now:
1. Someone warned bricked device due to xiaomi new restrictions released recently to prevent flashing global from on Chinese version. I may not be able to flash global from on Chinese version. (Yes I knew it's Chinese version as my the other one has English characters on the box, but this one has all Chinese characters). Is it possible now?
2. Will I get ota after flashing global from if q1 is yes?
If you only needed Google application like play store and used only English, thank look into this thread about Google installer:

Thanks, but I'd like to get rid of Chinese adware as well. The existing global version of note 5 works really well and that's why I bought another one. I got this one China version to avoid waiting time. But sadly xiaomi made things more complicated now. I hope I could flash it without bricking as it's fresh arrived last night. If bricked, money throwing in the water.
Unlock bootloader and flash global stable fastboot ROM.
Yes you will get OTA update
but dont lock bootloader after flashing global ROM
and you have to wait 360 to 720 hours before unlocking the bootloader

Yes you have to flash global ROM which has anti4 or else MiFlash throws error message saying bootloader index value is lesser than the present bootloader index value
And there won't be any chances of bricking a device if you use MiFlash

That doesn't answer why! if it bricks the phone it might be useful to understand the process a bit fuller. I'm buying the Chinese version myself so want to be aware of why you'd want to lock the bootloader again

Return to stock, to sell, improve security, warranty etc
You'll only brick it if you install and lock the global ROM on a Chinese device, Chinese rom on a global device, or lock on the Chinese EU ROM
Cool. So if I get the Chinese one I'll put the EU one on.
I don't think I'd need to worry about locking the bootloader for a long time. I want this phone to last a few years and it seems reliable enough. And the processes will improve all the time.
Thanks!

Locking the bootloader is for certain applications and features that requires a more "secure" phone, since an unlocked bootloader is considered not "secure".
Payment Applications, Banking Applications, and DRM applications (Netflix) and such requires the phone to have a locked bootloader, or it will not work.

Are you forgetting Magisk? I'm unlocked since surviving 72 hours of stock locked hell. All my banking apps and Google pay have worked for the past 2 months.
BTW stock Chinese or Dev or Global are garbage compared to the EU version anyways.
Hello all,
So my op6t died a very violent death the other day. I needed a replacement phone immediately so I went to T-Mobile and bought the 9pro outright. Per T-Mobiles guidelines, I have to wait 40 days before they'll SIM unlock the device. Once they do that for me "oem unlock" option should no longer be grayed out and I can unlock bootloader.
My question is, once my BL is unlocked, am I able to flash the global/international version of OOS? Or am I stuck with T-Mobile roms forever?
Thanks,
Pain
You can unlock the Bootloader when you request a token to unlock.
If you paid full price, why not get it directly from OnePlus with no restrictions?

Where do we download them from? OP website or oxygen updater app?
I just did this yesterday!
This thread has the instruction you need: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...7-to-eu-via-msm-no-unlock-bin-needed.4272837/
So yes, it's possible, but you'd have to keep the bootloader unlocked and flash the T-Mobile modem after every update. Not a big deal.
I actually tried flashing both the EU (firmware ending in BA) and Global full ROM (firmware ending in AA).from OnePlus and didn't notice any difference. But my understanding is that this month is special in that we can download the full update image from OnePlus for the Global/NA variant.
With Magisk Hide, I was able to get Google Pay working and Widevine L1 for Netflix HD.
Can someone help a cautious betty? How do I backup my oneplus 9 pro partitions without root etc? Thanks
Use MSM tool and back them up. Press f8, ctrl-a to select all partitions, use password oneplus.

You can with unlocked BL, just boot to fastboot and flash the partitions. You could use SMT download mode, but I wouldn't advise since it could wipe your IMEI and EFS partition.

The problem if you do not lock the bootloader, the play store will not be certified, which means that certain apps like Netflix, will not be available, also certain banking apps will not work. The solution being to root and use Magisk hide .
Locking the bootloader is possible provided your phone is not a Chinese version.
All this is useless with a Xiaomi Eu rom (playstore certified without root).
BTW:
Your first link has already been posted.
The second ?.
The third has nothing to do with the subject.
Didn`t have time to read all so i posted what he needs to get the update. Second link is where to get the rom, and third link of video tutorial has everything to do with subject because guy in the video shows how to flash official rom to your phone and what to do if flashing gives error. So it was meant for him to watch, not for others who need netflix. But if he needs netflix he can just ignore most of recommendations here and just root his phone if he knows how and finds some simple way so he doesn`t brick his phone

After using Mi unlock you will have to wait 168 hours to finalize the procedure.
Then use Miflash to flash the A12 rom, first do not relock the bootloader, check that everything works and that A12 suits you then lock the bootloader if you do not want to try other roms like Xaiomi EU rom.
Mi unlock and Miflash will erase all your data.

and finally when flashing the rom.how to prevent re-locking the bootloader and how to lock it if i want to.
thank you best regards
I thought I was buying an unlocked global version but goy the t-mobile version. Are there any options for unlocking the boot loader without an unlock.bin?
Additionally, once the bootloader is unlocked (if I wait for the .bin from OnePlus) what additional considerations are there for flashing firmware and rooting the device? I have been trying to sort through the forum with minimal luck.
It lools like MSM will not work without unlock.bin on A12 and later, is that correct?
If i unlock with unlock.bin can I use the OTA firmware from OnePlus site to flash and root, or do I need TMO specific firmware and where would that be located.
Any links to applicable guides would be greatly appreciated.

You are going to be ok. I have the OP9P with stock A13 with unlocked BL, rooted with magisk . Unfortunately I am leaving on vacation and will be limited when I can guide you along but be patient.
I just delt with this last week, and was able to convert to global and OEM unlock without having to use an unlock code from OnePlus or from tmo.
What you need to do is convert your model from LE2127 TO LE2125.
1. Download MSM for tmo OP9Pro, this will be handy if you mess anything up
2. I don't have a link but if you search TMO to EU MSM OnePlus 9 pro you should be able to find the right tool. You just run the MSM like you always would.
3. Now you can OEM unlock your phone by running the command `adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim`
4. Your phone is now no longer TMO but will not work with a US sim card, so you need to convert it to global. You can just download the OTA from OnePlus official website and go to software update in settings and press 3 dots and press local update or something like that.
4. After installing global software, upgrade to newest software version via OTA updates
5. Once complete, reset phone through settings.
6. ???
7. Profit
If you need any help with any particular step let me know
I have the TMO to GLO MSM Tool and will give link tomorrow! I will be on the road for about 10 hours tomorrow, that is why it will take a bit to get the link posted to download the MSM Tool.
Give me a little bit and you will have the link. Don't want to keep you waiting.... Fastboot OEM unlock once converted. Enable developer options, USB debugging and OEM unlock....
Also if you want to get back to stock after unlocking bootloader, let me know....I have the answer for that too!
If you stay with Global, you might need to flash TMO modem if your carrier is TMO.
Here you go... TMO 2 GLO MSM Tool....
3.52 GB file on MEGA
mega.nz
So while I was waiting I got impatient and started playing around with different MSM packages. The problem I now have is that after flashing to either TMO or Global I can no longer toggle OEM unlocking.
The phone was network/sim unlocked before I started and now, even if I get onto an A11 non-TMO ROM I cannot enable the setting.
Edit: After reapplying TMO ROM and going online it has re-enabled. Will try the suggested path now.
Use the link I uploaded to go from TMO 2 GLO, if first try does not work, uncheck the "SHA" and check the "USE LITEFIREHOSE" boxes.
Be sure to read all that I have posted. Patience is the virtue to success...
I will get you where you want to be, but you must be patient!

I do apologize, this is my first foray into all of this. I do not know how to do any of that. LOL.
I have that file now, but have no experience with TWRP. Any guide or info you can point me to? Do I need to upgrade to A12?
