Backing up Stock on McLaren OnePlus 7T Pro (T-Mobile) - OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers

Just wanted to ask if there was any way to either back up my entire system or restore stock if I brick on the OnePlus 7t pro T-Mobile edition since there is no msm tool? Just wanted to see if there was a guide before I go ahead and attempt to root.

Ok I see the rar file but what do I do with it? Extract it ? Sorry just new to restoring this way. Or do I use the sha1 of flash.zip to restore to stock after a brick?

Ignore the quoted post and read the directions.
I don't think we have a truly proven full restore method yet.

Flashing OOS on Chinese OP6T (A6010) that comes with H2OS

I am getting a Chinese OP6T that comes with H2OS in 2 weeks time. Any easy way (guide) to flash stock OOS to this Chinese phone A6010? Thanks in advance.
just unlock the bootloader and sideload the oos.zip (full) in stock recovery then flash it from there. you could also do fastboot method. works on my oneplus device since the 3/3T days.

Have you done it for oneplus 6T yourself? I was wondering whether the A/B partitions in OP6T will have a different approach to flash...
Thank you.
according to my friend chinese oneplus 6
you only need a full flash zip of oos and just local update from updater in the phone
no need to unlock bootloader
PS. and no need to factory reset too, but i still recommend to reset it
I am from China, and use Chinese OP6T (A6010) that comes with H2OS
just like fangchunxi1999 says, put full OOS zip on 6t sdcard, local update from updater in the phone setting
after finish, do a factory reset, OOS now!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I will do the same when I get hold of my phone. I asked someone to hand carry for me.
By the way, do you root your phone too?

Interestingly enough I just bought a 6t in China and I have been thinking about this.
- Question for you. Will you still be in China? If not, or you are planning a vacation somewhere, OnePlus support will actually help you flash OOS on your device. This only works outside of China though (even if you have a VPN).
- For others: what is the big difference between H2OS and OOS? I considered flashing, but I have a trip outside of China in a week so I was thinking I can just wait until then and let OnePlus do the flash for me. For now though, I have installed all the apps I want including Google apps and a VPN. Is there any real reason I would want to flash to OOS instead of just leaving it as H2OS? Thanks for any answers.

No. I am in Malaysia. I ask someone who happen to be there to bring it back for me. Dont think there is a oneplus support Centre here.

Yes, root just after OOS first boot.

This isn't at a support center. I just asked used OnePlus support online and they can do it for you through a PC with Windows installed.

Just got Device is corrupted, dont know how to restore it back. Someone said I could use MMSDownloadTool but there was not a version for HydrogenOS. I wonder I could use this from International MMSDownloadTool but I'm so afraid I would brick my Chinese variant device.
Well here's a question. If I wanted to flash h2os onto my international unlocked op6t could I do the same method just reversed?

In all honesty, you can either:
Unlock the bootloader back and just use the device as is or sideload the OOS.zip or you can try the global tool and hope for the best, since unless you unlock, the device is unusable anyways, if someone can get the Chinese variants tool it would be a Chinese user, others can’t request it..you’re better off contacting OP via chat and push for an OS reflash until they oblige and make an appointment with a tech to remote flash for you.

Well I would guess they work vice verse, worse case it doesn’t work, you can always use the msm tool to recover.

Just follow the method mentioned in post 4 and 5. I tried it and it worked. No need to unlock bootloader if you dont want.

I have tried de system update method, but I receive the message "The version of your selected package is lower than that of the current system. to avoid booting up failure, downgrading is not allowed"
Help!
I installed the hydrogen os a few days ago, and it was a nightmare.the boot animation was neat. And the oppo play store has more recent updates than play..
after switching to OOS, will one still get OTAs?
Where can I get the h2os full zip?

[HOWTO] Oneplus 7T Pro (McLaren) files & howtos

Hi guys,
received the McLaren Edition last Friday but unfortunately, I could only start to ruin it today
Here you find some files for rooting and booting, also currently uploading (will take some time) the OnePlus7TProOxygen_14.E.07_OTA_007_all_1910120134_0d7b44417dc0457.zip (as _14.I.07_ already available from this forum)
I will also upload some howtos just to have it in one place if needed...
How did you obtain the full ROM zip file?
Oxygen OS 10.0.3BA Full ota link
https://otafsg1.h2os.com/patch/amazone2/GLO/OnePlus7TProOxygen/OnePlus7TProOxygen_14.E.07_GLO_007_1910120134/OnePlus7TProOxygen_14.E.07_OTA_007_all_1910120134_0d7b44417dc0457.zip
Do you know whether there will be any problems with the McLaren Edition using regular Oxygen OS ROM?

After you have installed the OTA, do NOT reboot.
Connect the phone to a computer and save the zip from the .Ota folder.
Then you can reboot...

We ARE using the "regular" ROM, as the McLaren is identified by the ROM during the flashing.

i doubt it, only way to root is to sim unlock it and then enable oem unlock to unlock the bootloader

Is it just a fastboot command?
I am sim and bootloader unlocked on my T-Mobile Mclaren 5g.
What’s the fast boot command to pull the modem?
How do you want me to share it?

Are you sure it was on a McLaren 5G? It sounds unlikely that it's been successfully done. Could you link to that post?

Yeah, sadly that device model indicates a different one than ours.. oh well
You would have to convert your device to Global similar to how it was done with the 7 Pro first. Then you should apply the beta 2. You will need MSM tool and the ops file for global model HD1917 (it is linked in another thread). You do not need to have bootloader unlocked to do this process. Warning: You might lose 5G capability by doing this. I have not tested it yet because we are only at beta 2. When we get to beta 7 or 8 then I might consider it.

I do not know. There is no thread about converting so I would guess nobody wants to try. Sorry. I gave you instructions how to do it if you wish to try yourself.
Are you advanced enough to convert back and forth using the MSM tool? Have you used it on any oneplus phone before? It is basically like ODIN for Samsung. Flashes factory images.
If you want step by step instructions , message me.

I think i am i have used it before on my op3 and 6,6t, but I'll wait a little more maybe something comes up..
Thanks though
New security features implemented by OnePlus makes it not possible to convert the new phones. Currently there is no way to get around this new security feature until an exploit can be found. I have read opinions that suggest OnePlus is doing this to force people to buy directly from them. Either way it is sad!
This phone was already difficult to work with and now this.

Backup persist.img on oneplus 6t

Guys can anyone guide me through this. I want a proper way to backup persist.img on oneplus 6t in both the conditions i.e with root and without root. Can anyone spare a second to answer my question.

I have heard of backing up persist.img using MSM Tool without root. But don't know the exact procedure. However if you know of anyway of backing it up with root. Kindly share that.
Sorry friend I will really do not know about it, bit when I read OnePlus 8 pro section in XDA they have the help section about it, they explained about taking backup of persist image, best of luck
Edit: hi this is the guide explaining what you have requested I think if it is not sorry for the wrong link

How to downgrade from 11.0.1.1.in11aa back to OS11

Hi since updating my oneplus 8 pro in2020 to stable build 11.0.1.1.in11aa I have lost the ability to connect to 5g on my phone, even though there were some other improvements (like battery life) I would rather downgrade to stable build 11.0.0.0. I am very new at this and my device is not rooted, is there any way to downgrade without wiping the device? I know oneplus released a downgrade package to oxygen 10, and then you can upgrade to 11 from there, but doing this would make me lose all data. Is there a simpler way to downgrade straight to 11 without the whole procedure? Thank you.
If you go for MSM which you may do, then no.
You could perhaps get a full img and go that way but I've not done this myself.
Check the MSM thread, chances are this questions been asked and answered.
Also saw a thread for 11AA too with a full zip so check that one out too.
You can use "downgrade.zip"from 11 to 10.
I don't understand why people guide you to MSM tool. That is for bricked devices and is the last resort.
Anyway downgrade will wipe youre phone clean.

Yea this is what I thought about doing, I guess I don't have any other choice, would rather not resort to MSM right from the get go

Did you read my post? I tried to dissuade from using MSM!
Plus you just provided the same answer I did? In so many words.
I've always told people that MSM is an excessive resort to mundane issues, I'm far from a person who advises to use it without due diligence and an alternative that may work.
i faced same issue, follow this guide and once you done u will get your 5g Back + volte.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ejLtVQTpXZaB5XGNOBRI5dZV4GpuCKtHOGo6v49hWdY/edit#
after that if you dont need to root and relock your bootoarder flash with msm.

I did a full downgrade to 10 with the rollback package from oneplus and then reupdated to 11.0.0.0, thanks for the suggestions though!
