There's a good black friday deal for this phone, but the Mint Mobile variant doesn't seem to really be mentioned here. What are the odds it can be unlocked like the TMobile version?
I'd imagine that the Mint variant of this phone is the same as the T-Mobile variant. If that's the case, the official way to unlock the bootloader requires SIM unlocking the device. However, Mint's unlock policy kinda sucks...
Customers must have had their locked device activated on Mint Mobile service for no fewer than 12 months...

However, you can also try running this ADB command to enable the OEM unlock option in Developer options without SIM unlocking the device (from this thread):
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim
If that works, you can just request an unlock code from OnePlus and get your bootloader unlocked. See the linked thread for details.
Yes I unlocked mine with fastboot oem commands

You can contact @mobbdeep for instruction.
The process can take few days
One condition: the phone MUST be on T-Mobile network at least 72 hours. No exception
[CLOSED][T-Mobile USA] Free SIM Unlocking Service - [OnePlus/Samsung/Google/LG/Moto]
Hello XDA, I am back at it again with the free T-Mobile network unlocks. Yep, you heard that right... 100% FREE. This service will allow you to go into your Settings and perform a network unlock. I've been doing this for over 3 years now with...
forum.xda-developers.com
That's Mobbdeep's thread. He just SIM unlocked my N200 a few hours ago.
There's a full list of requirements in the first post, but the most important parts are:
-The phone must have an active T-Mobile SIM card installed for at least a full 3 days. (yes, this means you have to use the network locked phone for a few days before you can unlock it)
-The phone must be the T-Mobile variant (if it comes factory-loaded with t-mobile bloatware, you should be fine).
If you are on T-Mobile, just run this debloater script:

I haven't got a lot of time to get this out before heading out on a job, so here's the nitty gritty. A few days ago I flashed over "OnePlus_Nord_N10_5G_Metro_by_T-Mobile_OxygenOS_10.5.8" to get a clean start. I then allowed 10.5.14 to install...

Just did this on my free one from T-Mo. Worked perfectly.
Enables the OEM Unlocking toggle immediately. (Then you'll need to get serial, unlock code, and IMEI from bootloader to submit a ticket to Oneplus for the unlock token...then you need to wait a week to get it).

I believe Metro uses a different system than T-Mobile, even though T-Mobile owns Metro.
This debloat script should let you Bootloader Unlock your phone without SIM Unlocking it (you'll likely still need to get a bootloader unlock token from OnePlus).

The Quest for a Bootloader Unlock (partial guide, T-Mobile variant, may work for MetroPCS/Metro variant)
OK, this process has been hell, but I'm gonna try and consolidate everything I've worked out so far in one place. This all applies only to the T-Mobile variant (ie. it comes preloaded with all the T-Mobile bloatware) of the N200 on the T-Mobile...
forum.xda-developers.com
We've refined the knowledge a bit since that post, the specific command from the debloat script that un-greys out the "Enable OEM Unlock" option is:
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim
Just running that ADB command alone will do it.
Also, the original script you wanted? That link in my post (that's included in your quote) leads directly to the post the script is attached to.

Asides from the SIM Unlock service, there's also an unbloat script that will enable OEM/Bootlloader Unlocking without SIM Unlocking your phone (your phone will still be SIM locked, but you'll be able to bootloader unlock it). It's linked to in the thread I linked to.
For the actual Bootloader unlock, you'll need to get a bootloader unlock token from OnePlus. Again, the thread I linked to explains how to do so.

The debloat script will NOT SIM Unlock your phone, you will still be locked to a T-Mobile SIM card, but it will enable the Unlock OEM option in the developer options.
To actually SIM Unlock your phone, which will enable other networks, your best bet is mobbdeep's SIM Unlock service.
I'm not sure the SIM Unlock service will work if you've run the debloat script. (a factory restore will re-enable everything the debloater disables)
Hi and excuse of all my stupid queries as I am as an infant when comes to these techy things,
Bought an OP n200 and its locked On T-Mobile, read all this mobbdeep's unlock service in back dates, thread shows closed, and I dont even know how to PM here on XDA. Is there someone willing to help from scratch ?
Any kind of help will be much much appreciated
@Nikka.
It looks like mobbdeep is not doing unlocks at this time. His recent activity doesn't show any. So little point in trying to PM him.
If you haven't already, take a look at T-mobile's unlock policy. Or if you have the Metro-by-T-mobile version, their unlock policy.
Iirc some people have had luck messaging T-mobile on twitter, particularly if they've been a longtime customer.
If your goal is just to get bootloader unlock to be able to install Lineage or other ROMs then you may be able get that option using the debloat script here ("adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim" is that part that does it). The phone will still be SIM locked / carrier locked though.

Thank you for responding, Yes i see that mobbdeep is not active still tried a luck if anyone came up with a solution,
The variant i can only see T- Mobile first logo on start, rest difficult for me to know
And the twitter and FB options i read about is for those with T-Mobile account and their Number current being use in the USA
I am from Asia not having number nor the account at T-Mobile, even the default device unlock app not pre-installed, though i checked my IMEI online on T-Mobile web and they say its CLEAN
Completely have no idea what to do, My goal is to unlock network for now and my oem in developer option is visible to toggle on, that means I am allowed to unlock bootloader but thats not my need for now
Written almost all i knew, any help will be treasured.
@Nikka.
I don't think there are any great options. Such as a diy network unlock method or a free service.
There are paid services that claim to provide a network unlock, but I don't know how trustworthy they are. I've never used one, they were too expensive imho when I last looked. And people on xda don't seem to think highly of them.
If you can, the best option might be to return your n200 and buy a networked unlocked one.
I'm just about to return my Samsung A52 5G after realizing that the bootloader seemingly can't be unlocked. I did a quick google and thought it was possible, but apparently the North American version is locked.
Now I'm looking at this phone as my next option. Can anyone confirm if the OEM Unlock button appears in the Canadian version of this phone? I'm buying from the OnePlus website, and it says that it is carrier-unlocked (not T-Mobile).
I'm not even planning to root the device or do anything advanced, but I want to have the option to install Lineage later on once I stop receiving OTA updates, assuming that the Lineage devs make a build for this phone.

I believe there's a method to unlock the T-Mobile US version. I asked OnePlus's support, and there was a separate set of instructions for T-Mobile, so they might be able to help you.
I ended up buying the carrier-unlocked phone in Canada, and everything worked out; the OEM Unlock button wasn't blocked or anything. You just need the fastboot and adb drivers for the device, as usual.
There's a way to get oem ungreyed,read aroud
Even OEM and SIM unlock are separate, you have to have SIM unlock first before enabling OEM unlock.
Units sold directly from OnePlus.com is SIM unlocked.

If you need to SIM unlock your phone, do that before Bootloader Unlocking (remote SIM Unlocking won't work after running the debloat script that lets you Bootloader Unlock without the SIM Unlock).

do I have to have my phone SIM unlocked in order to get the bootloader unlocked. I'm only asking because I'm actually not using a SIM with my Nord N200, I'm just using it to play around with, but it is locked to T-Mobile. I just bought the phone off of ebay. I want to convert it to DE2117 firmware so i can install LineageOS.

No, though you'll need to use an ADB command to enable the "unlock oem" option in the dev settings.
ADB command:
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim
For more detail, read my post on that second link (the bootloader unlock one).

oem unlock is already enabled. I commented in your other post, it's enabled but I can't access fastboot mode, it doesn't give me the option in the recovery menu.
this adb command should get you into the fastboot:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
If that doesn't work.... I have no idea. been a while since I did any work on my phone.

Other than the ADB command, you can always enter fastboot mode by powering off your phone and holding down all three buttons while it's unplugged.
This is regarding unlocking bootloader on T-Mobile varient. There are two observations.
1) After device is SIM unlocked modification of the setting that was greyed out, 'OEM Unlocking' will be possible..2) Without device being SIM unlocked, modification of same setting is possible by performing the ADB command ("adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uim")Surely the manufacturer wouldn't make SIM unlocking as easy as performing a simple ADB command. But if not, wouldn't that imply that it is, in fact, NOT necessary for device to be SIM Unlocked to Unlock bootloader? It Don't make any sense.
Has anyone tried to unlock bootloader on SIM Locked device and did it work? what happened?
I took my SIM Locked T-Mobile N200 that I never paid a single month for and that was blacklisted and account sent off to collections.
I did ADB command to enable OEM Unlocking. Went to FASTBOOT and acquired the unlocking key. I sent key to ONEplus via their T-Mobile Unlocking webpage. And Oneplus responded a week later with my unlock_code.bin file.. DEVICE UNLOCKED
So I guess this would imply that ability to modify the greyed out OEM unlocking is the only way to unlock bootloader and NOT that 'device must SIM Unlocked' as instructed in the unlocking process.. Device being SIM unlocked is simply just ONE method of allowing modification of that setting? Right??
If you use the adb command and send your IMEI through the device unlock portal on OnePlus.com, you can be bootloader unlocked without being sim unlocked.
It just seems too easy for a T-Mobile locked Contract phone to be unlocked, don't they check the Device against some sort of database or something before providing you the unlock_code.bin??

The unlock_code.bin file lets you bootloader unlock the phone. This does NOT SIM/network unlock your phone... Though with T-Mobile you're supposed to be SIM unlocked before you can bootloader unlock, we just figured out how to bypass that.
They just linked the SIM unlock to the same thing we've been using, is my guess. I'd be interested to know if I'm right, but at this point, it's moot.
SIM UNLOCKED (bought in September/2021)
It got sim-unlocked after 180day, by simply pressing "unlock permanently" without using Metro or T-Mobile sim ever. after 180day however the phone is seems out of time (outdated).
