[BOUNTY] MSM with Global firmware for 5G McLaren (hotdogg)

[thepotatoman1]

So if our T-Mobile variants get bricked we're SOL?

I'm going to keep trying, but all they say is send it in to the shop which takes 7-10 business days.

Good news, I got them doing a remote support session I just told them my phone was stuck on boot logo I will obtain the MSM and link soon for all the xda people.

Should be within 24-48 hours according to Oneplus's support team.

I just attempted to get onto a chat and request a repair for my bricked device. The OnePlus guy told me they did not have a MSM tool for the TMobile version, unless they were lying. It was worth a shot.

It seems like some of their Tier 1 chat people may not know what they are talking about as they have a seperate support team contact you for remote recovery sessions. I was able to successfully get one booked for within 24-48 hours and should be able to obtain the MSM and firmware plus the RAR password. I'll make sure to update and/or/ make a post on the forums with my findings.

That'd be awesome! Hopefully it works with the TMobile version too. If you could find out during the session if there is a different one for the TMobile version that'd be cool.

I forgot to mention and realize I'm on the global post. This is actually for the T-Mobile variant. My bad lol.

You do know you have to make sure you have a keylogger right? Something, like StupidKeylogger or similar. You will also need to cut connection as soon as all files are in and he/she logs in or use ALL the required passwords. Basically stop connection right before flashing starts. (at that point you should already have all files & passwords) Then make a quick copy of everything... Then reconnect and let the person finish... (with keylogger working in the background at ALL time)

I'll make sure to do that! This is after all for the better for everyone on here. We deserve to have a way to recover our own devices.

I'm gonna back it up to Google drive then copy and paste the keylogger results into a text document I got you guys !

You can cut connection by quickly unplugging Router/AP. That will make it less suspicious than you using the mouse and manually disconnecting or something.

I have a airplane key on my laptop they won't even be able to tell lol

I'd probably rezip it without the password. Don't want to be connected to it in case they have different passwords per instance.

Good luck. As you lead the way.

Hey, if I may give you an advice, you should better not post publicly the link and the password (even if i'm personally interested by them, see my previous threads to understand why) as this stuff is extremely hard to get for carrier editions of OnePlus devices but rather rezip it as someone else suggested a few posts before mine. Otherwise OnePlus might change things for both carrier editions and unlocked ones ...

Oh absolutely! I'm going to obtain the image extracted without a password and the tool to flash then I believe is what we'd need. This should get development going for the devs.

bad news, after waiting for days for a response from Oneplus, I decided to phone them. They state that after speaking to the remote support team, they cannot even help us. As they apparently don't have the images for the T-Mobile firmware either/ firmware for the Mclaren edition. This is a big bummer as until they (if they for that matter) release the firmware on support site we have no way of really recovering a bricked device and any firmware flashing is gonna be very dangerous to attempt. So yeah.. really regretting buying a T-Mobile variant Oneplus phone atm.

They're saying nonsense, they have them at least internally to flash bulk devices.

I swear I'm so close to putting the two of them on a bridged phone call. Also yeah, I was wrong, global is useless for the tmo. I would almost call it a hardware variant rather than some carrier UI nonsense. Bounty is still out though, it's useful and someone made a tmo one.

What happened to TEKHD and the development forum for McLaren? The telegram group disappeared too???

Wondering the same thing, the last message I saw on Telegram was "what is happening to the channel" and then gone!

This has me concerned. I had thought I just didn't add the group or something in telegram. Very sad to see both the telegram group, and now the thread locked.

Everyone used different usernames if telegram. Who were you?
