This is freaking awesome, been really waiting on this day. I am sitting here rooted and with TWRP installed, and that means that its only a matter of time before the ROMs start a comin'. Gonna make some back ups and then flash the stock rom from the T-Mobile Development thread and see how TWRP works, will post my results. Might not get it finished tonigh tho, my 4 year old is being relentless and not letting me play with MY toys.

So they got the bootloader unlocked?

This is awesome news!!!

We have root. Bootloader never been locked on T-Mobile variant mate. You can choose to lock it or to unlock it from the Unlock OEM menu locate it in Developer Settings.

The bootloader was never locked in the first place. It's wide open to be used.

Hello XDA Fam, I've come to you for help.
Before it is asked, I did search around forums/threads but I really do have a hard time navigating around this site. And from what I seen there was no answers that I needed. Currently my Moto X4 XT1900-7 which I believe is on a factory image, no longer connects to my carrier. It is able to tell me the actual carrier but that's about it. The reason why I ask is because I'm on a completely stock image that's been updated via OTA.
I believe I lost my IMEI, carrier connection ( call it what you will) and orientation ( when you rotate your phone) after flashing this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3876195.
Since then I've been lost. Please if anyone has a recent up to date fix for this I'd be very keen to hear from you.
I've heard of injecting the IMEI, and tried but some guide I followed on XDA was unclear. And I'm not even sure if it would fix anything .. So again if you have a clear up to date guide on this, I'd be very appreciative.
Thankyou for your time to read through. Any info you may need I can try and provide. I hope that I haven't upset anyone with posting this in the wrong section. Or the fact that it's been asked before. If so you could attach a link for me to follow

Which ROM are currently on? Stock or any other? Also give your device model name(eg. XT1900-2 in my case)
-----EDIT-----
Sorry didn't read the whole problem. What is Device Model? (XT1900-2,XT1900-4,XT1900-7)
Did you try flashing the Stock ROM again?If not, grab one from this link - https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/payton/official/RETAIL/

You can try doing -
Flashing the firmware again(stock), then try locking and unlocking the bootloader again, then, installing PE or HavocOS or any other ROM you like.
Just give it a try!

The moto g4/g4 plus suffer from a similar issue. Couple threads from their xda forum. Seems some can solve it and some can't.

I'm curious if those of us with a bootloader locked phone can flash a different carriers firmware and be able to unlock our bootloader??

I just peeked at the tool and you have to have OEM Unlocking enabled to use this so it may not help you.

i tested it yesterday seems everything works buts its plain as vanilla also its android R

Garbage. Stock is better.

I tried it as well but couldn't get it to make phone calls. I'm on Verizon and tried a few things. Yeah it's pretty plain.
It's aosp I'm really surprised Google would supply this to the masses. Reminds me of the good old days.

I wouldn't even bother trying to flash ASOP builds because I know better. This really isn't for end users. Strictly for development. I'm perplexed why people are even bothering to use it.

For me I was curious to see if this is like the treble ROMs that are out. There are AOSP TREBLE ROMs out that function quite well. One of the advantages is that we have a choice not use Google apps/services with the TREBLE ROMs. Just like the old days. Most of the custom roms out now are loaded with gapps.
There's even AOSP based ROMs with gapps in this section that have a lot more customations.
It's really about choice.

My wife is using one that has a locked bootloader. I tried everything without success. Then I gave up and bought the unlocked version and gave her the Verizon one LOL.
There is a thread in this section that talks about unlocking Verizon ones.

If I try this how can I flash back to a normal rom? I heard you need to use https://pixelrepair.withgoogle.com but it's forbidden in my country.

It didn't work for me in the US either I just flashed the full image from Google to get back to stock.

Yeah I read somewhere that's it's a tricky business to get back to stock but I just flashed and it's back to normal. Aosp was interesting though.

If you have fastboot then download factory image, extract contents to fastboot folder and hit run
If not download the OTA zip, load up recovery, sideload update in recovery using ADB

Ok now we have a new tool. It's like the other tool mentioned in this thread. It doesn't mention needing "OEM unlocked" enabled. Question is. Can I flash Google fi firmware on my at&t phone and be able to enable "OEM Unlock" afterwards?

Question About Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.4 (2020)

Hello everyone im having a hard time identifying the model number of my Galaxy Tab A 8.4 2020 edition by t-mobile. it states on device checker that its model number is Sm-T307U so when i try to look up root methods and custom roms for this device theres hardly any information found. Is it because this tablet is relatively new ? or do i have the wrong model number?
i would appreciate any help and knowledge on this matter thank you ! :fingers-crossed:

That is the model number. I own one too. There is no OEM unlock which makes it highly unlikely this model will ever be rooted or have ROMs produced for it.

I'm concerned if there will ever be any updates for it, even security updates...

I have the same Tab which I received from T-Mobile. I want to root it and install a Custom ROM, but I need to unlock the bootloader first. Has there been any progress on this issue?

Disappointing

if you go to settings and enable developer options, you can turn on the "OEM unlocking" which says that it will allow the bootloader to be unlocked

Can anyone comment on this? I do not own this tablet yet, but I do want to make sure that this option is available since I do intend to root it once I bought it. Any insights will be appreciated!

For T-Mobile nothing has changed and there is not OEM unlock. As of today.

Thanks a lot! I wonder if flashing different firmware would make a difference. I might experiment in a few days.

I'd like to just find the stock firmware for it. It doesn't show up on the sammobile site and I don't know if I trust some of the other places where they say they have it. Need to flash the stock firmware in order to get rid of a Google Lock. If anyone knows of a trustworthy source, please post it. Thanks!

The latest one I have on my device is T307USQS4BTL1. I found it on https://samfrew.com/download/Galaxy...2020-__/4hbc/SPR/T307USQS4BTL1/T307UOYN4BTL1/ but I haven't tested it myself. Hope it's kinda helpful.

Yeah, I've seen that one out there, along with a few on other sites that I don't really know if they're trustworthy or not. I was hoping there was something out there on a website that someone could vouch for before I downloaded it. I think I'll just have to see which site looks the least likely to have malware on it. Thanks for the reply!

I hope one is found out

Did someone fix this for me

It is because the bootloader is locked by the carrier. You can't root it or install custome ROMs, unless T-Mobile unlocks it.
