Hello everyone, I'm a newbie and need help. I tried the commands above but got the below error messages and now my Nord is on endless loop. I can boot into fastboot or recovery and that's about it. Please help me and I greatly appreciate it.

Just want to say thank you for this thread. I was able to follow the steps, and take the A12 update. Once I got on A12, I re-locked the bootloader without issue and my T-Mobile N200 now shows as an DE2117 (Unlocked model)

I thought someone had mentioned that you would lose the ability to get ota using this method. But looks like you are not affected by it. Is that right?

Correct, I followed the steps in the OP and used the 11.0.6.0.DE17AA full firmware from https://www.oneplus.com/support/softwareupgrade/details?code=PM1630638351161

Once that was flashed, it took a small OTA to 11.0.7.0 IIRC, and after that, then the full OTA to Android 12 (was 3.8GB~).

Once I was on Android 12, I just rebooted to bootloader, re-flashed the cust-unlock, and then OEM locked it.

So, I reached the same point:
C:\Users\platform-tools>fastboot create-logical-partition system_a 0x6342E000
Creating 'system_a' FAILED (remote: 'Not enough space for partition')
fastboot: error: Command failed

C:\Users\platform-tools>fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true

How do I get to create the partitions so I can convert Tmo to OEM version?

    Guys, I need help.

    I have the factory unlocked version of the N200, and bricked it by trying to flash a GSI ROM and apparently doing it wrong.

    I can get into fastboot mode, but it won't boot past that point.

    Trying to flash the extracted firmware files from the payload.bin, I get messages that it can't resize partitions as needed; doesn't have enough space to flash, and so on.

    I'll post the results here shortly.

    So I downloaded the MSM flashing thingy for T-Mobile that's been shared here, but the program gives an error that it's the wrong device (because it is, technically).

    I contacted OnePlus support asking for a remote session, as I thought maybe they could give me the files and I could then share them here with you guys - but I just heard back from them after 3 days that "we can't do a remote session, wait for the next firmware update"

    So now I have a phone that won't get past fastboot mode - when I try, it loads a Qualcomm CrashDump screen.

    The commands posted above seemed to work for some files, but not the important ones like system. It can't resize the partitions as specified because, I presume there's something else taking up that space

    Is there a way to completely wipe those partitions and recreate them all with the correct sizes? I have the OxygenOS 11.0.5.0.DE17AA files.

    You lose ability to flash OTA until I fix TWRP for flashing OTAs 🤷 that's all I've noticed

    But you can still update using fastboot enhanced to push the payload without factory reset 👍

    Sounds good to me! I already lost the ability to get OTAs when I rooted XD

    Note: if you're on T-Mo OOS 12, then you have to go back to OOS 11 via MSM tools in order to do this.

    Check this post for how to un-grey the OEM Unlock option. There's a single ADB command you can use to do so.
