For some reason after updating Oxygen OS 11.0.1.1.GM21AA on my GM1910
Widevine L1 is back
It was never available before
I'm not sure if Oneplus made something
But here are some screen shots
Same here. I'm scared to update to the latest OTA in case I lose it.

Should I have do something to enable L1 in lineage or its default in L1. Is there any steps? I'm in currently oos 11.0.1.1.

On almost all roms we have L1 enabled if we had any OOS11 version as base.
So are there any special steps to get L1 on an unlocked bootloader or can I just wipe my phone and install the android 11 update over 10?

No need to wipe, just update with official OTA
Ok trying to get my Widevine back to L1 from L3 and can't find a solution. I was in the last OOS10 (widevine L3) then updated to the latest 11.0.1.1.HD65AA at OnePlus chat support request and it's still L3... So I updated for nothing. I don't get it lol. Reason for posting is that I kinda want to try LOS, but not sure if that will restore L1? Thanks
It's hit or miss. I couldn't get L1 with unlocked bootloader, no matter what.
The only way to get L1 back in my case is to lock the bootloader and go back to official.
@RokCruz
Are you suggesting to update from an Android 10 L3 unlocked state to Android 11?
With Magisk already on it?

I already tested on all OB and the lastest stable OOS11 and Widevine stay in L1, even in ROMs Widevine will be L1 if you use any OOS11 stock ROM as base
So, my recommendation is make a backup of your stuff, take off the fear and try by yourself.

I'm trying.
But every effort in getting L1 on an unlocked bootloader was without success...
This is why I'm asking. The only difference I can spot so far is that you have a GM1917 and I have a GM1913.

I don't think that it's working just for a specific variant, maybe there's something we are missing.
Are you using Magisk? Magisk hide?

Yeah, tried pretty much anything. The only thing I was not able to do is MSM to the patched 21.O.09 version. This version will not install on an EU variant.
I had to clear data for the Netflix App to get it to see L1 again. I assume you tried that too?

I'm in the same situation as you and I have a GM1917. It goes to L3 once I unlock the bootloader. I have Magisk with Magisk Hide enabled and it didn't work. I'd think that this is the normal situation, though...

I am also in the same situation, I tried everything but with unlocked bootloader I have L3. I have a GM1917
For some reason I also lost widevine L1 today, I did nothing, it's just gone.

I recently learned that an unlocked bootloader will trigger the Netflix app to only play in standard definition but not HD anymore because of Google Widevine DRM going from L1 to L3 even with Magiskhide. Is there any way around this on the Mi 9?
From my experience the only way is to relock your bootloader! :/

Thanks, for confirming that. I wanted to help my son unlock and root to install the Viper audio mod. But losing resolution on Netflix because of it is a deal breaker for him. Pity!
How do you even get a proper Netflix app, I got Mi9 Transparent edition with unlock BL, but the app says my device is not supported by the app

Have you tried installing the Netflix app from a another source than Google play?
The mi 9 I was asking about has a locked bootloader and Netflix installed from Play store. Given the consequence for the resolution of Netflix playback I won't unlock :-/
Perhaps a silly comment, but has anyone tried rooting and using magisk hide to perhaps allow regular playback? I can't cos 1. The phone hasn't arrived yet and 2. I don't use Netflix! Just came across this thread and wondered if it would make a difference...
I unlocked my Chinese MI 9 and flashed the official Global ROM. Now Netflix doesn't show up in the app store anymore, nor does it run when I install it manually.
As a temporary work around I installed a modified Netflix app that was made to enable HD playback. This works now, but I don't know how long this will last - so I'd be interested in a permanent solution.
Since I went from Chinese to Global I cannot lock the bootloader again or it will brick my phone.
How would Magisk help with solving this problem?
Also, can I install Magisk without TRWP or wiping the device?

If you can provide us the link to your Netflix MOD app it would be great, anyway i think you can go back to chinese to relock your BL, Magisk does nothing, i'm on global rom with magisk no Netflix available

Yes, it is the global one. I thought the security downgrade was linked to the bootloader. Any way to root without detection??? My objective is to install the audio tuning app viper4android which needs root access.
Hi,
I have find a solution to get widevine l1 working with unlocked bootloader. With Beta 9.6.27 the drm Info App Shows widevine l3, Then i have flashed the latest xiaomi.eu Rom 10.2.16.0 root it with magisk and now the drm Info App Shows widevine l1 so now you have Netflix and Others Apps with hd Resolution. Bootloader is unlocked

Wide one is for TV streaming, not for the actual HD playback on the phone I think
Hi,
I've unlocked bootloader like 4 different times, and my Widevine Turns the L1 into L3.
The main problem for me, is that i can't use Netflix and worst, can't install Samsung Gear Wearable. Even downloading both apps from apkpure, the system give a pop up message saying "App incompatible with this Android Version."
Anyone know's how to unlock bootloader without all this problems? Or how to Bypass it?
I'm using Mi 9T Pro.
I don't think you can get back L1 after unlocking your phone. It is similar to T2 chip in Apple devices.

Not sure how is your Widewine status linked to the bootloader. For Xiaomi Global devices, it always stays L1 even after bootloader unlock.

Netflix and Samsung not allowing you to download from Playstore has nothing to do with DRM. They have different policies for different regions. Try using the Safety net magisk module if that helps. Otherwise, use a modded Netflix app that works on unlocked bootloader.
I tried Android 10 and I decide to downgrade my Mi 9T Pro to Android 9. After downgrade, so many things broken because of persist.img
So, I reflash the persist.img (from V10.3.17.0.PFKCNXM) file and problems solved. I am using xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK20ProMI9TPro_V10.3.17.0.PFKCNXM_v10-9 now.
Netflix Widevine is turned from L1 to L3, so I cant play HD or HDR contents. How can I fix that?
once you have modified the vendor/persist partition (flashing the vendor/persist.img through twrp) there is no way to recover widevine L1 except for having to change the equipment for a new one or with a change of pcba
And if you try to flash using EDL? and then tell us if it is possible to recover the widevine L1

you could try format data with twrp, then you install xiaomi.eu

You should backup your stock persist. L1 is gone forever now so far I know.

I have a Global device. Unlocked BL and flashed the Indian version using fastboot. Haven't rooted but I have formatted all the partitions from twrp before fastbooting the indian rom.
Problem is now I cannot download Netflix app from the Playstore and figured also the playstore "Device is not certified" there in settings.
I want to know this is common and there's no way to get Widewine L1 when BL is unlocked? Or is there a possibility if I go back to the official Global rom and lock it?

Just flash magisk and safetynet patch module, then delete play store data. You can install Netflix now.
Just wondering, what are other disadvantages aside from loosing L1 ? I also flashed my persist image on A3 due to downgrade and sensor problems. Will service center be able to flash to restore it? Cause the phone is running fine on anything else
Same Issue with me. Any progress on your situation OP?
Maybe you should have done some research before doing something that stupid. Flashing persist.img is guaranteed to make you lose l1 permanently.
Hi everyone
Question for professionals and experienced people I hope to get a reliable answer on this matter
1- What do I lose when opening a bootloader other than air update and payment and warranty service?
2- Is it possible to return to the official status and receive air updates?
Thanks everyone in advance
Can't say for sure but you should still get OTA; if not you'll get full ROM zips delivered via OTA instead of the smaller chunk/patch updates.
The main thing is banking apps and Google Pay. Widevine should be OK. On mine it's L1 so still A-OK for Netflix/etc.
OTA updates work also if bootloader is unlocked. Idem for payement and warranty service...
If you root the phone it isn"t the same story.
Mine is rooted and OTA updates work. I download the update BUT I unroot the phone before installing it.
It"s possible to relock the bootloader but no need to do that...
PS: Unlocking bootloader resets the phone (Back up what you need before).
Unlock bootloader means no more hd on netflix n stuff.
Widevine stay L1 but netflix will failed to load unless you delete smthing n widevine drop to l3

Read carefully the forum! It seems people had problems by flashing a wrong global rom. I can't help you more because I've got MI9T Pro and didn't read a lot about that.

hi guys ,
i want to make my oneplus 10 pro 2213 model back to store condition
how can i lock the bootloader?
i cant find any answer anywhere and im not sure if fastboot enhancer is the solution
my device is fully work btw
thanks
it's highly recommended that you don't do that. Most of the devices I've seen get brincked in that operation.
But if you wanna proceed with that, you have to flash the stock image back again, there must be no changed image (boot, recovery, system...).
And then you can run the command "fastboot flashing lock"
what about msm tool
anyway to do that with the tool ?
There is no tool current available to O10PRO, all there is require username and password.
A lot of people, myself included, are waiting for a msm tool so we can fix our devices.
OK
so if my bootloader is unlocked any problem for gpay ota ect?
It may not work .. Netflix doesn't work for example. Gpay as I don't use can't say for sure

No unlocking the bootloader will not effect gpay or any other banking app. Now if you are rooted then yes gpay and banking apps will not work. You will have to use Magisk to fix that.

That could be the difference between the 2213 and 2215. I got my 15 from OnePlus carrier unlocked. That's the first thing I did was unlock the bootloader. Now my gpay, paypal and my banking apps all work. I'm not rooted yet I'm just waiting on a full rom update to get the boot.img. But I see that OnePlus is going to post oxygenOS 13 today. I might check it out. OnePlus has really done a number to the 10 this time. As for as Netflix I think there is a thread in here some place.
Hi guys
Anything new in the MSM tools?
Or maybe any other way to lock the bootloader?
look on GitHub for fastboot enhanced works really great as long your in de bootloader you can do every command with just a click i was thinking on doing that my self to but then i saw something's what i want to try out and there is also a fastboot ROM in the forums maybe that you help you too
Thanks !
I will read about that!
i have the same question.
I have a NE2213, unlocked and rooted and now want to sell it.
So my plan was to uninstall Magisk with all Modules, do a factory reset, update to NE2213_11_A.16 and then relock the bootloader.
since i am only rooted with stock rom - the only changed image should be the boot.img which will be stock after i update zo A.16.
Should be right, isnt it?
since my only other option ist to contact the support for a online MSM-Tool, which i need to do anyways when it does not work - i would give it a try...
