Really glad to know this exists before i buy the device. Is this expected to recover from any situation?
So who wants to brick their device to test this tool?
Thank you so much for the tool. really helps to make the decision to buy this phone. So will this recover from any kind of brick like even without need of short points in extreme cases?
Wow. I bricked my red magic 3 over 4 months ago by flashing the wrong TWRP. I will try your tool an let you know if I can get my cellphone to work.
Even a cellphone repair shop could not repair the damage I caused.
Fingers crossed ?

You don't need to short any wire or test point in order to boot into 9008 mode. But you can still do that if you completely bricked your phone.

Mate I want to give money to the developer of this unbricking tool. Thank you so much for helping me in less than 4 minutes completely fix my Nubia Red Magic 3.
Now I am not the guy who destroyed a $1100.00 New Zealand dollars phone anymore.
As promised I'm sticking with my Xiaomi Mi9 and my partner has the very scary awesome Red Magic 3 cellphone.
Here is a picture of her syncing her Google account an transferring her data from her 2016 Xiaomi Mi Note 2 to her completely functioning 2019 Red Magic 3.
Please let me know how I can pay you for helping me fix this cellphone that was bricked for 4 months.
And thank you ever so much
Transferring all her data an apps ?

I fear it would be very hard for you
since this Phone is almost unknown
so it will be very hard to get the unlock code of the sim
just call the provider or find some one who unlocks huawei phones
but it will cost you about 10$-15$

I'm sorry for hijacking a very old post but I just want to ask some question regarding ZTE A520. I'm currently searching for budget phone with good spec and this is the only one suited my budget. So, how's the phone after about three month? And how it brick, do you format it and do you fixed it?
I found some Russian site for this one and it seems provided a firmware download but I don't know if it worked or not.

Has anyone had any luck flashing Tmobile's OP8 with the firmware from the global model? When I had my OP7Pro, I recall flashing the global firmware to improve the overall experience, as TMO is TERRIBLE when it comes to updates. Is this even feasible with 5G?
And before you ask why I didn't just buy the global model... I am on EIP on Tmobile.

If I am correct; People are waiting for one plus to fix the IMEI not accepted issue on the one plus unlock bootloader site; after which people will start unlocking and reflashing the global version. I am waiting at least.

unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, make a full back up, also you should back up persist just in case your fingerprint stops working, then flash the global firmware fastboot ROM, then flash TWRP restore the MODEM ONLY from the full backup and root etc

Well you can always use MSM tool to go back to stock, and as far as converting, you'll find out soon ??
You could try this....

You've most likely been scammed. There is a thread over in the Guides section on how to convert the T-Mobile OP8 to the global firmware but it's still a work in progress. Right now it requires the bootloader to be unlocked and the use of the MSM tool to downgrade the stock firmware first. I don't believe there's a way to do that remotely just from the IMEI.
Please be careful sharing information about your device online, and check your sources ?

You've most likely been scammed. There is a thread over in the Guides section on how to convert the T-Mobile OP8 to the global firmware but it's still a work in progress. Right now it requires the bootloader to be unlocked and the use of the MSM tool to downgrade the stock firmware first. I don't believe there's a way to do that remotely just from the IMEI.

Wow thanks for the advice, I'll just take the 50 as a loss then
If you gave someone your IMEI number you have lost more than $50. You've probably lost your phone.

So I've sent my imei number to someone from this site promising that they can install the OnePlus 8 international OXYGEN OS on my phone just from the imei number.. Just trying to figure out can this be done or have I been had... They claim it takes 30 mins but it's been over a day already and nothing...

Uh oh. I hope that your IMEI number hasn't been compromised. IMEI numbers are in demand for blacklisted phones. how did you pay? Paypal?

Did you seriously, really, share your IMEI with someone you didn't know?
Better exchange your phone now cause I wouldn't even touch that thing after that.
Call TMobile and make up a story about it not turning on or something. Or kill it via root and say it won't boot up

I agree. You should send the phone back to tmo and request a new one. That way you don't have to worry about anything. That would be the best way and don't let anyone get that personal info from you again. I just rooted last week and coverted to global firmware this weekend. I've had the phone since may 2020. I read these threads over and over each day and didn't make a move until I was sure I had things down. Take your time and read, read, read. Happy modding!
Please message me the link to properly convert my T-Mobile OnePlus 8. I already have it sim unlocked though XDA over a month ago. Please include all the correct methods & do not put the things that brick the device, but more of what did successfully work. I've read tons of pages of the conversion & most of them have different things where some say don't do that or not necessary.
How to properly unlock bootloader & download correct MSM DOWNLOAD TOOL software.
Thank you.

Nobody is going to spoon feed you like that. Just go to the official thread and do it yourself. It's not that hard, but backup persist.img before you so anything

Where did you get your info to install the international stock? I've been all over xda and all they have on here is just installing the oxygen OS on the 7t and below.. Is the process the same? Can I use the drivers and msm tool for the OnePlus 7?

Look for the ROM for fastboot install in questions and answers. You have to read a few different threads to make sure you use the right thing. Once you use the MSM took it gives you more confidence since you can just revert back to 10.5.7 TMO anytime your want. Happy modding!
I'm waiting on my bootloader unlock code in order to do this on my T-mobile Oneplus 8. I've rooted phones in the past, but honestly it's been a few years. I have read a bunch of posts, but the info is pretty vague.
Is this still the correct way to go to international? https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8/how-to/guide-convert-to-global-t4105885
If I root, will I lose anything? (Google Pay, bank apps, etc...)
Are there any lingering issues I should know about?
The MSM Tool allows an easy way to go back to stock?
Will it be safe to update to new firmware as they come out? Or is there a process for this?
Sorry for sounding like a new newb, just can't seem to find all these answers easily. I think the last phone I rooted was an LG G4 when it came out lol.

Yeah I was the same way so keys help you out here.
That's a good link to follow.
You may lost the ability to access banking apps if you root
MSM Tool if awesome and gets you back to 10.5.7.IN55CB stock everything.
I had no problems updating international 10.5.10 to 10.5.11. I'm TMO rooted running international version. Happy modding!

So I've successfully unlocked the bootloader of my T-Mobile OnePlus 8, and I was wondering if there was any way to convert it to the Global OxygenOS firmware? And if something goes wrong, is there any way to flash back to the T-Mobile firmware? I haven't been able to find any threads relating to this subject.
