I have searched everywhere where the answer is "No. Moto G5 Amazon Variant cannot be unlocked". Unless I checked myself. And BOOM!!! The unlock code is on my email. Will see tmrw if we can unlock the bootloader. Need to search for a method to root then.
But I guess, I will do that when Oreo gets released for G5 . Cheers.
Don't update the phones software via OTA when official Oreo is launched whilst bootloader is unlocked. I'm sure this bricks the phone?
How did you get the website to accept your (Amazon) "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" string?
When I enter it on the Motorola custhelp.com site, it tells me my bootloader is ineligible for unlocking.
Note that I have both an Amazon G5 Plus and a non-Amazon G4 Plus in case I need to do something with the non-Amazon phone first.

I've got my eyes on a unlocked Verizon pixel 3 XL that's unlocked. How deep is Verizon's software in the pixel and would it even be possible to fully convert it to a regular Google pixel?

If the bootloader is unlocked I don't see any reason you can't use the non verizon firmware on it. The devices themselves are identical, just the firmware is different. Note that I have not done this so you're at your own risk.

As far as I know it's sim unlocked. If that's unlocked, bootloader should be unlockable as well right? Or how does the process go on the pixel?
On 6T it's you get a sim unlock, then you send a request application, once approved they send you a .bin to unlock the bootloader thru fastboot

No, sim and bootloader are two different things. You'd need the bootloader unlocked to flash the regular Google pixel firmware. Sim unlock just allows you to use the phone on different carriers.

I understand the difference so In another words the bootloader is not unlockable on the Verizon one and there is no process for once it's sim unlocked like it is on the Oneplus 6T (where sim unlock is required in order to unlock bootloader)

No you will not be able to unlock the bootloader on the Verizon variant weather it is sim unlocked or not. However you can uninstall all the pre loaded Verizon apps. I had the Verizon model and was able to uninstall all the bloat. The only difference is the bootloader and being able to root.

I've read thru it, I mean someone will crack it sooner or later. Some fine folks brainstorming it. Wish it was as simple as on the one plus, you just wait 7 days and you're unlocked.

I know, was trying to make sure the one I was getting on eBay was infact a Google one. Apparently there's a major difference in the label. Same model number etc. However there's a lot more writing on it. Mention of imported by Google Canada which isn't present on the Verizon one.
I've read here that the bootloader is locked on T-Mobile's OP7T, are we screwed when it comes to rooting? Doing a search for HD1907, I hardly see anything related to rooting it successfully. Has anyone done it yet? Is there hope for us HD1907s?
Thanks!

You can request a sim unlock from mobbdeep and you'd be able to unlock your bootloader once you sim unlock your phone. Then you can proceed to convert to international if you please.
Edit: it's a week wait period just like previous tmo OnePlus devices we should know this.

Bootloader unlock is in the developer options section of settings. you have to get the unlock token and submit it to OnePlus for your unlock bin. Once the unlock bin is flashed you're bootloader unlocked.

Know of any disadvantages to switching to the US Global version of the OS? Seems like those are being updated faster than the T-Mobile versions.
I'm planning on writing up some documentation about the conversion process once I get my unlock code (should be here tomorrow which means it might take me a few days to mess with it and get it all nice and neat)

You don't. It takes exactly 7 days from when you submitted it. You can check back on the site you submitted the request on and you'll see when it's done, and you can then download it from there. Pestering OnePlus or T-Mobile does nothing, you won't get it any faster.

you can use fastboot rom from the guide section and flash that in fastbootd. its pretty easy to do. my 7t used to be on global but i returned to tmobile stock rom just for the google feed on the left instead of shelf. Before asking questions, just read a couple of pages back to avoid spamming the same questions others have had.

Should I back up some files in case some issues happen? Such as finger print doesn't work when the bootloader relocked? Because of I saw in other some pages in OnePlus 8 series.

i mean i havent backed up anything in relation to persist since ive also seen how to the fingerprint scanner is affected on the oneplus 8. i have relocked my bootloader on my 7t and the only thing not working is ota. i have no other issues besides that. fingerprint works fine after custom rom flashing and switching between global and tmobile stock rom. so id say you are fine since the msmtool does restore everything on the 7t. if you care about widevine level it'll return to stock if you go back to the locked bootloader state. also never re lock the bootloader when running anything custom to avoid issues(brick/bootloop).

I got problem today, but I'm not sure what's going on. I got my sim card in oneplus 7T and the device has been unlocked, the reason I said unlocked because of advance option show this device has been unlocked and able to use any of carriers, but there's no signal at all in my device. I switched the sim card to other phone and it's working, so I put my friend's sim card in oneplus 7T and it's working. Now I don't real understand why it's not working. When I got home and the device is working again.
Do you know anything about it?

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?

Global is a problem since updates are coming from Google and we can't get a full image.
Better to flash EU in this regard.

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.

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.
