Folks, I know it is a bit late in the game to share the guide but I will do it anyway.
This worked for me on Android 11 stock OnePlus 8 Pro with Shaw/Freedom. This is not my guide but a reasult of the research and connecting several guides together, so all credit goes to community !
I have no responsibility for bricked phones or any loss as a result of following this guide.
