Question DRM L3 after locking the bootloader - OnePlus 9 Pro

Earlier my 9pro was rooted and bootloader was unlocked with DRM L1 status but after uninstalling magisk and blocking the bootloader my phone is truck on DRM L3. Can someone guide me how to fix this issue ? I have to lock my bootloader as one of the app i use for studying just bans the account if they find the phone has unlocked bootloader/rooted . Thanks

I'm on stock A12 TMO LE2127 rooted using magisk and unlocked bootloader. An app I use will not run under this state unless I add it to the magisk deny list. I am widevine L1.

Well this app was working but I had accidently uninstalled magisk and it detected unlocked boot loader and banned me for 2 days , it really costs a lot lol and my exams are coming so to be on a safe side and to prep using my phone (which I was avoiding ) I have locked the boot loader now . Using msm tool to go to a11 gives drm L1 , I have a question should I factory reset after going from a11->a13 and also will it keep L1 after reset ?

If using stock roms all the way to A13, which is the best way to go, you should be ok. You should be at L1 then.

Wildvine level is a complete crap shoot when you unlock the bootloader. Other threads are out there where many of us followed the exact same steps and some had L3 and some L1. I have yet to retain L1 once I unlocked the BL and rooted. Usually relocking it will put you back on L1. Some have reported having to relock it and reset the device. YMMV.

Had L1 after msm a11 , but it has now changed to L3 on C.66 . Any solution guys ?

You might try a factory reset. I know others going through updates and such said factory resetting helped solve the problem...

bootloader unlock code different from frp unlock code.
installing other device firmware has chance to replace oeminfo.img partition. Changing this partitin often causes locked frp.
If lucky you can wipe from the erecovery that is loading. maybe even couple times. Then maybe it will boot. Other that that there has been no public mention of any fix.
do your best to fix it using hisuite or other methods if you can. if you have twrp that can help if you have stock recovery and locked frp your only hope might be hisuite and if that fails you will need a paid option like dc-phoenix or funkyhuewei. i only have experience with dc-phoenix, and it did fix my locked frp completely bricked phone, but i read that funky also works well but is nearly 3 times as expensive. (15€ vs 50€)

If flashing again is the answer to solve problem. Use my guide here.
You are on Oreo now so use the top portion. "Flash update"

But I put it all pretty simple, I thought. Like 4 steps
Download files
Put files on SD card
Install twrp

If that is over your head, maybe you should not have modify and phone.

I used fastboot oem unlock, if I recall correctly. And I have MagiskHide enable in Magisk.
I had done the same the first time with that command and mine also was L3.
What I did and fixed it (for me) was relocking the bootloader and unlock it with "fastboot flashing unlock", then installed magisk stable and used MagiskHide, then it was L1. Hope this fix it for you.

Does this require wiping data like usual when re-locking and then unlocking bootloader again?

Disregard my last message. I asked because Netflix said L3, but I downloaded the DRM Info app and it shows L1. I cleared cache and data for Netflix and then logged back in and now it shows L1 there too.
Here's the thread that helped me figure that out:

Thanks for your reply, it could help some other users. But after my first unlock DRM info said Widevine was L3. But second attempt was successful

Okay, I redid everything, using fastboot flashing unlock this time, and I'm getting L1.
interesting, I am on global 11.2.2.2 (rooted/magisk stable/lsposed) running magisk hide and getting L1 widevide. I used 'fastboot oem unlock' but I do not use netflix so it doesn't matter too much for me, but good to know.

Hi. All I know is once I MSN Tool from 11 to 10 I got L1 back because I don't realize that the tool relocked my bootloader.... Then from 10 to 11 update and still L1 (bootloader locked)
Soon as I unlock my bootloader on 11 right back to L1. And I'm super crazy about this issue. Anyway, best I can say is I can't seem to have both unlocked bootloader and L1... So it's one or the other. Nothing I've read our tried has worked and it's like a waste of time trying. But, do what you gotta do cause I failed and you may not. Good luck. Thanks

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

I posted the exact tutorial and process i used 3 days ago and it is to unlock bootloader, download rom he needs and use video to flash it. Simple. I had exact same situation and i fallowed these steps. I don`t see any problem, and if it is, let admins delete my posts and i won`t try to help since it gets judged immediately like i did something terrible. Anyway, since i posted a question my self with a little problem, if this is the way i might get some answers by explaining every single thing i or anyone else post, then this is not the right place to get answers... Best of luck to Powerhero with updating his phone. I hope he chooses best and easiest solution and enjoy his phone with new software.

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.

one more thing sir and sorry for that. the process with xaiomi phones is a bit different i used to do it with samsung phones.
i did all the steps to unlock the bootloader
and tells me to wait 168 hours to unlock.
now should i use the phone normally and what things not to do untill the 168 hours complete
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

Question L1 question

Is it possbile to have L1 when we unlock the bootloader and root it using magisk delta by HuskyDG?
I have seen some people with OP 9/9 Pro saying that they kept L1 after unlocking and rooting but how to do it with OP 11?
I've tried unlocking but as soon as i do i lose L1 had to relock to get L1 back. Now some people also mentioned that if you do it twice like first time unlock bootloder, root etc. then unrooting and relocking bootloader to try again unlokcing and rooting to get L1. I haven't tried unlocking it again cause it just takes so much time installing all the apps back again.
Op11 with unlocked bl have l3 is not like op9p with unlocked bl and l1

But it should be same as Op 9 Pro minus the upgraded cpu and camera chips structure is still the same. Heck both devices have A13+ support so how come?
