Is the T-Mobile OP7T (HD1907) screwed because of the locked bootloader?

I've read here that the bootloader is locked on T-Mobile's OP7T, are we screwed when it comes to rooting? Doing a search for HD1907, I hardly see anything related to rooting it successfully. Has anyone done it yet? Is there hope for us HD1907s?

Thanks!

You can request a sim unlock from mobbdeep and you'd be able to unlock your bootloader once you sim unlock your phone. Then you can proceed to convert to international if you please.

Edit: it's a week wait period just like previous tmo OnePlus devices we should know this.

Is there a guide to for converting to the international rom? Do you know where I could find the img? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

MobbDeep has unlocked my SIM, but how does that affect the bootloader? Is there a bootloader unlock app that I can get from T-Mo?

Bootloader unlock is in the developer options section of settings. you have to get the unlock token and submit it to OnePlus for your unlock bin. Once the unlock bin is flashed you're bootloader unlocked.

Know of any disadvantages to switching to the US Global version of the OS? Seems like those are being updated faster than the T-Mobile versions.

I'm planning on writing up some documentation about the conversion process once I get my unlock code (should be here tomorrow which means it might take me a few days to mess with it and get it all nice and neat)
How did you get an ETA for the unlock token? I submitted it but never received an email stating that they got my request.

You don't. It takes exactly 7 days from when you submitted it. You can check back on the site you submitted the request on and you'll see when it's done, and you can then download it from there. Pestering OnePlus or T-Mobile does nothing, you won't get it any faster.
