Hello
anybody knows why my oneplus 3t 128 A3003 has single IMEI? I have another oneplus 3t 64 A3003 which have two IMEIs.
Does it have any differences?
BTW, Both of them from UK.
Thanks
My UK 128GB 3T has only one Imei too. Not sure why
Is it from O2? Or from oneplus online store?
It looks like units from O2 have a single IMEI. I've got them investigating it at the moment. They gave me two replacements before telling me that all their stock was the same!!

I got it from O2. Is it possible to use 2 Sims using the same Imei? I have tried using a 2 Sims yet
I tried with both H3G and both working
I really don't understand what is the point of having on or two imeis.
Must be something different
Hey, i am a new user of oneplus 3t...And want to the differences between A300 version?
The only difference between the different models is the radio bands that it can receive. Aside from limitations in the radio, every other aspect of the hardware is identical. I'm not sure where the A3010 comes from, but I know that If you buy a Chinese model, the only difference other than the radio is that it comes preloaded with Hydrogen OS rather then Oxygen OS, which is easily user replaceable. All ROMs made for the OnePlus 3T will work on every model.
When buying, just make sure that the model you've selected is compatible with your mobile network.

Yes it is a Chinese model and i m using this model.
Is the root method same for this model?
Yes, almost every tool/method/ROM/guide made for the OP3T is applicable to your device. If something is made for a specific model (perhaps because it is radio-related), I'm sure the author will explicitly state so.

Thanx... Gonna try it today.
I have the Chinese version of the 3T (bought it on swappa without researching the model number) the A3010 & I live in the US... I wanted to know if I bought a replacement A3000 rear casing would that change the bands of the phone? As the A3000 is the US version.
What do you think "rear casing" is??
Anyways, you cant change anything to make it work with US bands.
I'm thinking of buying this phone from a seller in Singapore. The 3T sold in Asia (apart from China) appear to be the same model number as those sold in the UK. Does that mean if I buy the 3003 3T from Singapore it will work on all networks here? Thanks!

What a question..
It doesn't matter from where are you buying it.
It only matters to support EU bands.
3003 is the correct model for EU.

Thanks for the answer! It just seems odd that they'd make it this way, I don't know of any other company that would allow for this, especially since it'd just encourage importing.

Well, since this phone isn't sold like most other phones in local stores, instead it's sold directly from the design-company. Especially now when OnePlus has stopped selling them, now we have to buy directly from the producers (Aliexpress) or from stockpilers/resellers on Ebay. So yeah, this is an import phone either way and, ao it's up to us buyers to choose the direct band-locked modell.
Also, there's actually no physical difference in the models which is important to know. Only in software which locks which bands that it will connect to.

First of all, just press the thank button. No reason to thank through posts.
Secondly, all of Chinese phones are being sold through 3rd online resellers like Banggood, geekbuying, gearbest etc. It's not only for oneplus phones.

I've been using a Chinese variant of the 3T in Sri Lanka for almost 6 months mate. You're good to go.
Cheers!
so i am using galaxy note 5 currently, and now i decided to buy OP3T as it has a lot of customization + NetHunter.
i am deciding to buy 128GB version of OP3T. and want to ask some questions if anyone can answer them.
1. how good is this phone's camera comparing to Samsung Note 5 ? (specially in dark) on gsmarena it looks better than note 5, but how is it in real life if anyone has compared the two?
2. any special model of 3T to avoid or to look for? for the best of xda support?
3. any special bootloader/firmware to avoid ? like sometimes its better to buy the oldest bootloader for highest support on xda. and sometimes it doesn't matter if device's dev are very active in supporting latest firmwares?
4. as i always stayed on samsung phones, it gives a good code *#0*# to test all functions of phone. is there anything i can use to test OP3T when buying?
and others that you can think of suggesting me? so i don't regret after buying something i shouldn't have?
thanks in advance :fingers-crossed:
1) Camera is decent esp with the google camera port with HDR+
2) all models are the same. Just make sure you get the one for your region (proper bands)
3) all software versions give you the ability to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery
4) not sure
4) *#808#

Not all models are the same.
For European users and better coverage of bands, model 3003 is recommended.

They're physically the same, only difference is in the band locking configuration files in the encrypted partition.
But yes, you should of course choose the one that comes with the most suited bands for your region (A3000 for US, A3003 for EU/international and A3010 for Asia).

So, you are claiming that a 3010 can be flashed to 3003 and vice versa?
Any links that back up this claim?

If it weren't for the fact that the band locking is in an encrypted partition which is factory programed and not affected by any ROM flashing, we could if it wasn't for the encryption.
The reason why certain bands can't be active on phones in certain regions had to do with those bands being used by for example the army/govermental agencies, so they're not allowed to make a phone be able to use all bands all over the world.

1) Haven't owned one, but claim that they are pretty even
2) All are the same
3) None are to avoid I'd say. You can always change the firmware the way you want it anyway
4) Just have a second with that and feel yourself how beastly the device is
thank you so much for all of your replies.
so i am from Pakistan, my OMC/CSC is PAK,
on gsmarena there are only two models, Global and USA, i suppose i should buy Global?

Most probably Global is A3003, so yes.

Hi, I'm from Pakistan as well and I'm using Oneplus3T Asia variant (A3010) which is working perfectly for me. Global/Eu variant might be compatible with only a few networks and bands over here so I recommend you buy A3010 version.

give me yours or exchange with my note 5 :fingers-crossed:
i'm from LHR too.
i never understood correctly what is that frequencies of Paki networks, always confused.
i use ufone and zong.
have you tried NetHunter on your version? what is that version? global or europe/asia? i only see two models on gsmarena. are there more?
by any chance is that not a korean / chinese ?

I will only ever exchange my 3T for a newer 3T
You can find all the bands supported by all the networks in Pakistan over at Wikipedia. In your case, ufone and zong should work fine on the A3010/China variant just like me.
There are in fact 3 variants of the OP3T based on different regions. All three have the same hardware apart from the frequency bands obviously.
A3000 (US model)
A3003 (EU/Asia)
A3010 (China)
The global version listed on GSM is the A3003. Both A3003 and A3010 will work fine on your networks. Btw where are you buying from?
As for Kali Nethunter, I have never personally used it. However, it does not matter which variant of the phone you have, it will work on all of them in the same way just as almost all mods and custom roms work universally on all versions.
ok so i bought OP3T A3003 128GB. all bands i wanted are working on it. and im very happy.
its on Android 7.1.1 already.
now i want to root it and install twrp.
any recommendations?
after used samsung odin mode. i dont know what mode op3t has if anything goes wrong (soft brick) to restore official firmware?
also because i don't currently have internet so i have to go to a friend to download stuff. please recommend all the tools i require to unbrick my device if something goes wrong and i dont have internet.
thanks

why i keep seeing that screen on when i start phone. it says your device has been unlocked ans can't be trusted.
it started after i unlocked bootloader.
how can i get rid of that? it says if u want to not see this screen then lock bootloader. so if i lock bootloader will my root and recovery remain?
