I bought a used Lumia 800 last night. The OS version on it is "8107.WM7_Main_ship(mojobld).20111207-2014"
I can't seem to find much info on it, but from what I gather, this is a developer model? Can this phone be updated to the latest OS version? My phone tells me it's already on the latest OS but this can't be true!
Other info:
Firmware: 1600.2473.7720.11400
Hardware revision: 112.1402.2.2
Radio software: 1.6.00.24
Radio hardware: 8255
Bootloader: 7.35.0.0
The OS on the retail Lumias is easily interchangable. You can flash a chinese carrier tango variant on a french or whataver handset and it should work just fine. And then you can flash back to an old mango rom.
Well at least as long as you have hw: 112.1402.2.4 like me. Yours seems to come from an older batch.
(Zune will almost always tell you that you are up to date, don't mind it).
Please take out your sim tray and check your phone's product code. It should be something like for example 059N064.

The product code is 059L8X9 (Type RM-801). Does it matter that my hardware revision is the older one (112.1402.2.2)? Can I still flash other versions of Tango on it?
I ran NCS and it couldn't find my product code or any software updates. I couldn't refurbish it.
Edit: Apparently Zune DID find an update for my phone :S...updating it now! I just got home from work so I haven't got a chance to use Zune until now. Lets see what this does...
Edit2: The update failed . I got an error code 80180048. I really want to update this thing cause the battery drain on it is nuts! Plus, I can't live with knowing there's an updated OS out there that my device should have but can't...any thoughts on updating?

NCS will only look for updates for you product code, just like Zune.
The trick is to force a refurbish with a different variant ROM.
What I would try to do is:
- download the 1750.805.8773.1220 "Nokia 800 RM-801 Everything Everywhere UK GB Matt Black GV (059Q201)" ROM using NaviFirm
- Put the downloaded files in "C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\RM-801"
- replace 059Q201 with 059L8X9 in names of the three files that contain the PC
- Start NCS and put it in offline mode
- Connect your phone and click refurbish.
(If you installed NCS correctly, it should detect your phone and show its basic info. The phone has to be plugged in after starting NCS)
Now while this went perfectly smooth on my 059N1R with 112.1402.2.4 hardware, I can't guarantee it will work fine on your phone. I suspect it may work, but Nokia doesn't suport it simply because they didn't bother to test the new firmware with older hardware.

Is the phone easily recoverable if things don't go smoothly? I made a backup using the WP7 Easy Backup Tool...but I'm still too scared to update the phone with anything haha...
I tried following the instructions for the Windows Support Tool (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2530409) but upon holding the camera button I'm taken to a "SEARAY System Load Menu" instead of the screen with the picture of the phone and computer. The menu is loaded with some pretty scary looking options lol.

The word on the street is that dead Lumia phones are easy to resurrect using the Recovery option in NCS.
But a "SeaRay options menu"? Seem you've got yourself some pretty old device there, sir.
I guess it's one of those with the older Qualcomm bootloaders, which let you use custom ROMs. If you flash with newer official ROM using NCS it will not break your phone but only upgrade the bootloader to the newer locked Nokia DLOAD version.

Hmm...in that case, maybe I should hold off on upgrading until a custom Tango ROM gets made?

In my opinion going with the official software would be safer.
Anyways, I like the look of the Everything Everywhere Tango ROM. It supports a helllot of display languages, internet sharing is unlocked, doesn't have any carrier bs installed, the only Nokia apps preinstalled are Drive, Maps and Contact Transfer, and among them only Drive is pinned to the start screen by default, the rest is just pure WP 7.5.

I think I'll follow your advice and go with the official software. I feel like I've had my fill of custom ROMs with my last 3 Android devices.
Before I attempt this though, what is this I hear about "cabs"? Is that just a packaged and ready to go version of what is out on NaviFirm+?

CABs are Zune update packages and are nothing like the complete ROMs found on NaviFirm.
CABs are like Windows MSU files, while ROMs are like WIMs or VHDs.
In fact, WP CABs are distributed through Windows Update servers just like Windows updates.
Similarly as with Windows on the PC, the updates take longer that a clean install and the process may fail. And it's even harder on the phone, since deploying too many or too litlle CABs can make your phone unupgradable.
Although the cabsender method is fine for really minor upgrades like pushing the firmware only from 12070 to 12072 to fix the volume bug. It may also be used for adding additional display languages.
I am using the Everything Everwhere ROM and I can confirm it has no branding apart from the carrier being listed here:

Why is the software part of about screen showing Windows Phone 7.5 and why not 7.8 ????
Why would it show 7.8?
Would putting the everything everywhere update on my Lumia void the warranty? I found that if you use the PS tool you can download the firmwares direct from there which is always handy.. Im just reluctant to flash the phone in case it messes with the warranty??

I wouldn't worry about it too much, you could always download your native firmware and re-flash it if necessary.

What hardware are you running? Does it happen to be the same as mine?
Poked around a bit more and I realized my phone has apps that let me mess with the registry etc. (QC BSP Services). It also has a bunch of apps that start with "z" and seem to have access to root things in the phone (zBig Boss Settings, zCompass, zDebugMenu, zSensorView, zStart KITL). Does anyone know what these are for? Does this indicate there is a custom ROM on my phone?
My phone is a later hardware revision than yours. It definitely sounds like you have a custom firmware on there. You should be able to install the ROM I have just the same though.

Ohhh, i see.
This phone is nuts. I just want to restore it to stock firmware but I'm kind of scared that it might somehow brick the phone. Although...it's now stuck on the NOKIA logo and won't boot up...earlier the phone was stuck in airplane mode. I haven't even tried flashing anything on it yet!
Edit: I did a reset with the vol down + power keys, got back into the phone but it's still stuck in airplane mode! Changing the toggle doesn't do anything...it stays in airplane mode. The wifi is on too and when I toggle the slider, it just switches itself back on after a couple of seconds. WTF?!
Has anyone had their phone get stuck in airplane mode?
Chynkinese, i would do a flash with Tango and Nokia Care Suite.

could you be a little more specific... what do you mean without loosing the I.D? if you mean without removing all apps etc, then it's not possible at this time. I would doubt that it'll even be possible when the update is pushed out next year.

Does it matter which color to use? I have lumia 800 cyan and want to use German firmware, but there is a firmware for any but cyan(( Can I use a firmware for a black phone?
Nevermind, I used german black firmware and everything worked flawlessly.
Sorry for my bing translation, see that not is understood well, anyway now I have solved that problem, thank you for your interest, but now I have another question, see if I can help, where you extract "amss.mbn" and "emmcboot.mbn" of a lumia 710 of the files downloaded from the navifirm

This tutorial might be helpful:
http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-...8-on-Lumia-Devices-from-NaviFirm-314617.shtml
"For that, you will need to go to C: \ ProgramData \ Nokia \ Packages, and create a new folder labeled “Products.” Make a new folder inside it, name it as the specific model number of your device (e.g.: RM-801 for Lumia 800, RM-808 or RM-823 for Lumia 900, RM-803 or RM-809 for Lumia 710, etc).
Inside this folder, place the Windows Phone 7.8 ROM that you have previously downloaded through the NaviFirm Plus application. According to plaffo, it should be in this folder: “\ NaviFirm + 1.7 \ Fw \<product code>”."
Lumia 800 developer unlock
Hello! I updated firmware to 7.8 and now I cannot register for a developer unlock, windows phone developer registration doesn't see my phone. By the way, Zune does recognize it but when I connect the phone a message shows up that states that it cannot connect my phone to the internet though I still can sync my phone with PC, and syncronization really works. I tried to reinstall the firmware couple of times, made hard reset but no luck. It either rebooted after disconnection from pc or did stuff like now. Has anyone experienced the problem? Other than that everything is great.
Hi guys I have been following XDA Developers for years and I love it I have found many useful tips and tricks in my time from hear over at the Android forums and now I would like to share my first post with you all not only as a thank you but also even though the nokia WP 7.8 upgrade is close I was impatient like many of you and wanted it now I read lots of threads about using navifirm+ etc and renaming files but in all honesty I think my method is easier and quicker and cuts out a lot of confusion hope somebody finds this as useful as I did.
All you will need for this Update is Nokia Care Suite.
PLEASE NOTE THIS METHOD IS FOR UPDATING YOUR ORIGINAL PHONE AND CARRIER
For Example..
Before Update your phoneis running on Vodafone WP7.5, - After Update it will be Vodafone WP7.8 (carrier locked)
Before you start get your phone code pop your sim tray out and check the code by the Barcode/QR label it should be seven digits mine is 059N8H6
Write yours down and then put the sim and tray back in the phone.
Right lets get started
We need to find a decent version of Nokia Care SuiteThis I found a little hard as a lot of the downloads are full of bloatware/spyware however this is the one I used. softpedia.com/get/Mobile-Phone-Tools/Nokia/Nokia-Care-Suite.shtml ( as a new user I cannot post the Link)
You may need to update some windows components mainly Microsoft net framework 4.0 and all that is available including the extender. you may even need to update c++ redistrubutle to be able to install Nokia care suite. however Nokia Care Suite will tell you what you need.
Download and install Nokia care Suite this will take a little while and after it is installed you then install all Drivers in C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Drivers some will not be compatible that is normal.(my system is win7 64bit)
After all drivers have been installed you can then Open Nokia care center . you may have to go to your program files and open the Nokia Folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Application Launcher\bin application launcher then right click and run as administrator.( I had Too)
once it has loaded you will have a menu double click “Product Support Tool For Store 5.0” you will see a picture of a disconnected phone and cable Click File and “open Product”
Find or type into the filter RM-801 . YOU SHOULD THEN HAVE 1 RESULT this is Our Nokia Lumia 800's click open and you will now see it on the screen (left) with the disconnected cable and phone. connect your phone so that the phone drivers get installed (after install you can leave it connected)
check that in the bottom corner their is a Globe lit up saying online it should be. then click Programming at the bottom left of the window and select Recovery. a new field will appear on screen saying Properties and you will see three boxes. Code, Variant Name and Version.
Click into the Code box and type your 7 digit code from the sim card tray you wrote down and click find online.a Box will open and lots of firmwares should appear within the popped up box in the Code section again type your code and that will give you your specific update to WP7.8
Click download and wait until it has finished after it has downloaded then click update list it should appear in the properties boxes. (if not just select tools from drop down menu and click Downloads and then double click the file)
Then Just highlight the Firmware file and click Start The software will then take over and instruct you to turn off the phone( if it is still connected) after you have done this then connect the phone to the USB cable whilst holding volume up button the phone will vibrate a couple of times and the drivers may instal again give it a few seconds and . press retry Thats it Nokia Care Suite is doing your Upgrade.
Sit Back and relax as Your Lumia 800 upgrades to WP 7.8 I am pretty sure this method will work with any Lumia device however I have only done it with MY Lumia 800 and therefore cannot guarantee it.
obviously I cannot be held responsible for any bricking or damage you cause to the your phone so only proceed if you are comfortable doing so.
Hope you all find this useful cheers oobritoo.

Your solution is good but has a big issue, and I will try to explain it to you.
Imagine that you are like me, having a Lumia 800 that you bought to Orange (or any other provider). Mine was an Orange France Lumia 800 that I had desimlocked officialy by them, and after this, I installed, via Navifirm, an unbranded ROM for the phone. When using your solution, as you said in your post, you must provide inside the Nokia Product Support Tool the code of your device, closely linked to your simcard (you said by yourslef that this code is located on the Simcard compartment. The Nokia Product Support Tool will then download and install on your mobile a ROM branded to the operator corresponding to the code provided.
Navifirm allows you to pick almost any rom, independantely to your code number, and by using a little trick (renaiming 3 files), to install it.
This is the biggest default of this method for someone who cares about not being branded again. If you are using a branded phone and want a firmware customized by your operator, then your solution is for sure the best one.
But anyway thank you for your post, it will help many of us I am sure.
Hi
My brother uses 0 which has Windows 7 installed in it as operating system. From the system itself, it has a built-in Bing search, not just for texts/phrases, images, videos, but for songs as well. Whenever a song is playing, the search option automatically picks up which song is being played & shows option to buy it from Windows Store.
I myself have Samsung Galaxy S 4G (1st generation) with Android as built-in operating system. Though I love Android for its variety, I just can't figure out how to do such song search with Android phones. Google is pre-installed in these phones. But Google's voice search doesn't help with identifying the song. Is there another way to do this?
Thanks!

Easy, you need to install the Nokia USB Drivers, located in the folder Drivers, found inside the installation forlder of Nokia Care Suite. Then your Lumia 800 will be recognized.

I bought my 800 unlocked from a 3UK store and don't want it locking to that network as I use a different carrier. I would have thought there were generic codes for non-carrier versions....
Thanks,
I have an issue, my phone is unbranded sim free Lumia 710 with code 059n2l6 there is no software found for this product code, Can I use any?

3. Run the oneClick DOWNLOADER (comes with the latest firmwares)
4. Choose the ROM. FLASH.
5. Once complete take the battery out; Re-Assemble, Switch on
OTHERS follow the following POST
NOTE: I do not take credit for any of the work by respective developers. I'm a lame user and that's my best quality. I would prefer things to be simple enough, if not I find one.
So for those who have been looking around for a Nokia Lumia 710 FULL UNLOCK and are jumbled with programs X, Y and Z and files A, B, C; everything seems right when your are following some steps and then, at some point of time, unfortunately for some it stuck and sucks. I've tried many things and the following is the one I like the most and find the easiest. Best of all, you don't have to worry about the DLOAD.
NOTE: One small mistake and you might brick the phone, so be careful.. I or the developers nor the forum is anyway responsible for your loss. But if you be careful, you won't have to worry.
READ the entire post and understand BEFORE you TRY
Step 1:
Download the required softwares.
( All required files are hyper-linked below )
i)> NSS PRO 0.48 or NSS PRO 0.51
ii)> QUALCOMM BOOTLOADER for Lumia 710
iii)> Depending on your system configuration, Windows USB Drivers either x86 or x64
iv)> Any one of your desired Custom ROM :
A. Rataplan Final, based on Nokia firmware 1600.3037.8862.13170 ,
B. Lumiatrix^8 V 5.1 based on 7.10.8835.35
C. Reality ROM based on 7.10.8858.136
D. fabiode34's Custom ROM
NOTE: You need only one ROM. so pick any. I've been using RATAPLAN's ROM.
Do Not Forget to thanks the Developer, whose ROM you are using.
Step 2:
Once you have all the files with you do prepare the program files for the FLASH.
a. Install the USB driver as per your system.
b. Extract the bootloader to a folder. You will get the following two files
RM803_12w07_prod_generic_nokia_osbl.esco
RM803_11w48_prod_raw_nokia_osbl.binc. Extract the NSS to a folder
Now copy the two bootloader files to the following folder within NSS folder
loaders\special\wp7Extract the Custom ROM to a folder. You should get a .nb file. If not, try another ROM
IF you did the steps as stated, you are all ready.
Now before proceeding, make sure you have Enough battery back up on your phone and for the PC/Laptop (in case there is a powercut and you don't have enough backup, you won't have to but another paperweight.).
Step 3:
Flash your phone:
Did I Miss Something. No. You don't have to check for DLOAD. Not for Lumia 710. I already made it clear.
a. Connect your phone to PC. You don't have to do any button pressing or have to go to recovery mode.
b. Launch the NssPro.exe from the NSS folder in admin mode. Grant all the permissions the application asks for, if any.
When the allpication window is launched, make sure you know what is where. Use the snap for reference
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Make sure, you select the USB port from port selection and alllow the application to detect the phone.
Once the application detects the phone it will show "Nokia USB connectivity.
Change the application mode to FLASHING
On the right side select WP7 Tools. You will get the Bootloader tools..
c. Now refer the following screenshot and proceed.
i. In Advance Connectivity section select NORMAL Mode and then WP7 Qualcomm, if it does not detect automatically.
ii. In Bootloader tool select the OS file and locate your CUSTOM ROM to it.
Once you proceed further there is no going back. So be careful. Make sure that you have all the files in place as stated earlier and also you have installed all the drivers. Use CUSTOM ROMs for Lumia 710 only (Either your own or reliable developers). When Windows asks for format, ignore it. Do not respond to any pop up from any application other than the NSS. You should not leave the PC unattended for whatsoever reason. NEVER choose YES for FORMAT, simply close it.
iii. Hit the install. When asks for confirmation, select yes.
Wait for a while. Do Not Panic. Phone will go blank and will start in NAND DISK mode in a while. The connectivity mode will switch to NAND DISK DRIVE mode.. If Format option pop-ups, Select NO.
iv. Check the advance connectivity mode, and set as stated earlier to NORMAL and WP7 Qualcomm.
v. Hit the Write OS in the Bootloader tools. Wait for a while (usually 5 to 10 mins) Be patient. NSS will ask to restart the phone.
You cannot restart the phone. Take the battery out. Then again put it back and boot the phone.Close the NSS tool and any other pop-ups.
Your phone is now unlocked and loaded with a custom ROM
Step 4.
REACTIVATION of phone.
Your phone is ready to be used if you have used a correct ROM.
Sometimes, if you install a locked ROM or on on a Locked phone, your phone will be locked for LIVE ID usage. you'll have to ACTIVATE the phone to use LIVE login. You can still use other features though. Do not worry, as activation is as simple as chatting with a buddy. Just CLICK HERE and use chat and ask the customer care executive for activation code. They will need few of the details of the phone, and they will give the code. use this code to unlock LIVE usage.
Once again, I take no credit for the work. I'm just sharing the info in a clean manner. I use the method and works for me. Your Phone Your responsibility.

Lumia 710 RM-803 flashing Lumiatrix
Whenever i plug in my phone it comes up as a qualcomm device, and the first part of your instructions went perfectly
Check prerequisite files.
Hi,
If the first part went right, you should have no problem for the second part. First part is the critical part here.
(Even I Had faced the same problem many times. Downloading and replacing the files should do it.)
Here are the possibilities:
If the first part went right; the phone will go to service mode; the USB should disconnect and reconnect automatically. You'll get the FORMAT disk message and you should select NO or simply close it.
If you accidentally click on YES, your phone is a gonner
If everything is correct, NOKIA USB CONNECTIVITY should change to NAND DISK. And you can p[roceed with second part.
NOTE1. If first part is not pass, the second part cannot be initiated.
2. If first part is pass, the second part MUST be completed.
What if I just want to unlock the phone and not to install the custom rom...thus it will work i mean it'll unlock my phone using the qualcomm loader files only.
Hmmmm... Just the UNLOCK....

Well, That is completely upto you. But consider the following scenarios, b'cause I have no idea what your UNLOCK mode means.
Case 1: If phone software is not hacked, you cannot install YOUR own softwares without having to purchase from the MarketPlace. You'll have to install applications only through MarketPlace.
Case 2: If you think, installing the Qualcomm bootloader will unlock your phone, then you are mistaking; it will only enable your phone to install any firmware on it (simply saying it will be a dumb rock until you install a firmware).
Case 3: If your phone is carrier locked, and you want to use it on any other network: Simply insert the new SIM card and follow the LAST LINK IN THE ORIGINAL POST. But use it only after a fresh ROM installation or Phone Hard Reset.

Hi,
Have you downloaded and installed all the files as needed. (All the required files are hyperlinked within the description).
It works for me on Win7, both 32 and 64 bit.
Make sure you have installed the proper USB driver for your system (from Step 1 / sub step iii). This is mainly the reason for phone detection.
Check if it helps.

Phenominal post!
I've successfully unlocked my Lumia 710 and flashed Rataplan V6.0 to my phone! Everything's working great, except I need to figure out my APN settings to get MMS working again. :L
The only suggestion I'd make for your Layman's guide is to make sure to let everyone know that they will lose anything that isn't backed up! Pictures, SMS, some contacts that aren't on your SIM etc. It may be common knowledge to some, but I didn't know. It's no big deal for me though.
Anyways, thanks a bunch! Great post!

Installing Custom ROMs help!!!!
So i downloaded rainbow mod 2.1 and the downloader.exe. I also have fully unlocked my Lumia 710 with Nokia Care suite 5.0. The porblem is, when i launch downloader.exe and click download ROM, it says "Lumia Disks not founded!" and tells me to put my phone in osbl bode, which i did. HELP ME PLZ!!!
Hi at all,
I have a Lumia 710 with DLOAD bootloader version 7.33.0 and OS version 7.10.8862.144.
Can I install a Custom ROM (Rataplan V7.0) with this method?
Guys, I have a nokia Lumia 510 with a DLOAD bootloader. Any Ideas how I can get a custom Firmware on to it? And will the process of changing the bootloader as specified above work for my phone? Please work on a custom ROM for it!! :crying:
I saw the other thread on unlocking the T-Mobile variant, so I thought I'd document my experience unlocking the version bought directly from the OnePlus store.
WarningsThis guide applies exclusively to OnePlus Nord N200 5G phones bought from the USA OnePlus online store.
It may work for other carrier-unlocked Nord N200 5G phones. However, I haven't tested them.
As always, this voids your warranty.
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about this process before following it. YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will not help you.

In addition, this adds an unremovable warning screen from the bootup process. After unlocking your device, the device will show a warning screen on every bootup for 5 seconds. It will read as follows:
The boot loader is unlocked and software integrity cannot be guaranteed. Any data stored on the device may be available to attackers. Do not store any sensitive data on the device.
Visit this link on another device:
g.co/ABH
PRESS POWER KEY TO PAUSE BOOT
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
As a last note, if successful, this will wipe your device. Backup all data you care about.
Prerequisites1. A OnePlus Nord N200 5G bought from the USA OnePlus store, running OxygenOS 11.
2. A computer with the `fastboot` android platform tool set up and working.
You can download a package containing fastboot from https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.
3. A usb-C cable to plug the phone into the computer.
Steps1. Enable developer settings.
Go to Settings -> About phone. Tap "Build number" 5 times until it brings up a prompt to enter your device password. Enter it.
On success, it will bring up a note saying "You are now a developer!"
2. Enable OEM Unlocking
Go to Settings -> System -> Developer Options. Tap "OEM Unlocking" and follow prompts.
3. Reboot into fastboot
Long-press the power button, then select "Restart". As the phone is restarting, hold down the volume down and volume up buttons.
The phone should now be showing a text interface. You can select different options with the volume buttons, and use the power button to select.
3. Unlock using fastboot
Connect the phone to the computer.
In a command prompt on the computer, use the following fastboot command:
Bash:
fastboot devices
Verify that your device is connected, and the serial code matches the "SERIAL NUMBER" shown on the screen of the phone. For instance, my device shows as:
Code:
$ fastboot devices
SERIAL_NUMBER_REDACTED fastboot
And on my phone screen, it shows "SERIAL NUMBER - SERIAL_NUMBER_REDACTED".
Once you've verified this, use the following command to unlock the device:
Reminder: THIS COMMAND WIPES YOUR DATA. All data on the phone will be erased by this.
Bash:
fastboot oem unlock
If successful, the computer will output this:
Code:
$ fastboot oem unlock
OKAY [ 0.042s]
Finished. Total time: 0.042s
On the phone, you will see a prompt for unlocking the device. Read it, and follow the instructions. Use the volume up/down buttons as up/down arrow keys, and the power button as "OK" or "Enter".
After you've confirmed you want to unlock the device, your phone will reboot several times, and erase all data. Once it's done, you'll be rebooted into the operating system.
4. Confirm the unlock worked
To confirm the unlock worked, reboot into fastboot mode again.
On the screen, the bottom row should now read "DEVICE STATE - unlocked".
Congrats! You've unlocked your device. Once someone builds a custom recovery or ROM, you'll be able to use fastboot to flash it to your device.
So does this mean you can now pull the files someone would need to start on a custom recovery and/or a custom rom or at least majisk?

Unfortunately, this doesn't let you pull any files from the device. All it does is allow you to flash a custom recovery, ROM, or boot.img once someone develops one.
With that said, I have started researching steps for porting TWRP to the device.
Edit: since this is the only place I've mentioned it, might as well give an update. I'm giving up on porting TWRP for now - I think we really will need binary blobs, or a lot more hacking on things and finding a similar device. And given that our device is the first wave of devices with the sm4350 platform.... I think our best bet is OnePlus releasing binary blobs.
I've taken notes on everything I've been trying at https://github.com/daboross/android_device_oneplus_holi_notes, if anyone's interested.
Man that stinks. I was hoping we could have at least gotten the files needed for majisk.
2 alternate ways to get into fastboot mode:
ADB:
The command
'adb reboot bootloader'
will restart the device in fastboot mode.
Advanced Reboot:
In the developer options, turn on 'Advanced Reboot'.
Hold the power button for a few seconds to bring up the power off/restart dialog.
At the top right corner will be 3 dots, tap them, select 'bootloader' from the resulting dialog.
The phone will reboot into fastboot mode.

I'm thinking it'll be a chain reaction as soon as we have *anything*.
Like, if we get magisk, we'll quickly be able to then pull the stock ROM and recovery and use those to build TWRP.
Or if someone can build TWRP, we can use that to pull boot.img and get magisk working, and pull the stock ROM and get a custom ROM built.
Or if someone can port a custom rom (though I imagine this is harder than the above two - probably impossible without binary blobs?) - we can include root in it, then use that to grab boot.img and the recovery image.
As soon as we get *any* control which gives us root access or otherwise unimpeded access, we should be able to do everything.

I think the thread has been deleted now, but someone did do that for the Metro variant. I believe there was also a grab for the T-Mobile variant.
Unfortunately, both of those OTA updates were partial updates, and are useless without an original ROM image. I've also been watching for an update to my OnePlus non-carrier-variant, but no updates have been pushed at all.
I think it's not a bad idea. Just unfortunately all the updates so far have been partial, and since a new version of android is a ways away, I think they will continue to be partial updates, still useless.

Ah, but the device shipped with OxygenOS 11!
There have been so few updates since the device was released a little over a month ago. No OxygenOS 10 firmware ever existed for it.
Is the N200 directly bought from oneplus dual sim?
It seems like the device has the space/pins for second sim but disables dual sim via software.
Check on youtube for "N200 teardown" and the motherboard likely has space/pins for second sim.
BTW: does the unlocked version of N200 have FM radio? Can you install app "NextRadio" and see if it works?
GSMArena lists the N200 as dual sim with FM radio.

I'm not sure if it's dual sim or not, but it doesn't look designed to be. There's only one IMEI listed in settings, and while the SIM tray is long enough for two different SIM cards, the second one is filled in with plastic and you'd have to modify it to put a SIM card there.

The motherboard may have pins for second sim card.
Maybe like the t-mobile version of oneplus 6T, we just need to replace the sim card tray and flash compatible firmware to enable dual sim function.
Even with one IMEI, both sim cards can still work simultaneously like the T-Mobile oneplus 6T. People have reported two sims work on t-mobile simultaneously or on two different carriers on t-mobile oneplus 6T with one imei.

I'm surprised the radio app doesn't work. There is a default package installed with a radio app, and the original phone (A91?) comes with an fm radio.
Can someone explain if they really switched the camera modules? I can't find any info on what the specific camera module is, plus the a54 (oppo) has a 48 mp camera versus the 13 mp in the n200. It seems like they really wouldn't switch the cameras on a phone so similiar, but who am I?

What is the default package? I can't find any on my device that looks like it'd be a radio app.
Here's a screenshot of NextRadio. To be clear, I have done no debugging to see if I could get it to work. I just installed it via the play store and opened it.

also i know these are supposed tto have to be sim unlocked first but i saw in anotther thread on anotherdevice i believe it was an OPO something but there was a script hat got rid of tthe services/apps that prevented unlocking the booloader while sim locked.
does anone know if the same script could be run on this device or will i have to sim unlock i?
The unlocked variant can be rooted as easily as any, as long as you get a copy of its boot image. The TMo variant (which you're after) has yet to get its bootloader unlock token.
To me, having high refresh rate is paramount, so N20 omitting that is a critical flaw. Plus, having tried GSIs on both, I felt N20 was weirdly stuttery/unresponsive for its specs.

Get the n20 over the n200 if the final price difference is less than $60.
The n200 is a bad device for its specs because oneplus has no interest in optimizing the OS for its low end phones with 4gb ram, because oneplus has only two devices with 4gb ram: the n100 and n200. Oneplus put an OS designed for 6gb/8gb ram with mid-high end cpus on the N200 which has only 4gb ram and lower end cpu, and as a result, the N200 performs like a Motorola phone with 2gb/3gb ram.
Similarly speced Motorola phones perform much better than oneplus.
Ironically, if you update the N200 to android 12, the system will say the phone has a snapdragon 855 cpu, while it has a low end snapdragon 480 cpu. So basically oneplus software engineers just put an OS designed for high end phones onto the low end N200 without any optimization, and even forgot to change the cpu model name.
If you buy the carrier tmo/metro version, you need to obtain unlock token bin to unlock the bootloader, and you need to sim unlock first to enable OEM unlock or you can use the disabling Qualcomm uim app trick.

Care to elaborate on what this Qualcomm uim app trick happens to be?
So I went with the n20. Actually seems to be a pretty decent phone other than the fact that it shipped with a 7 digit serial so I can't get an unlock token. Been back and forth with OnePlus trying to get it resolved but they always just tell me they will email a response within a few days. Their last response was to add a zero before the serial. But doing so just gives me an error that the serial/unlock code don't match. Hopefully I can get this taken care of and get the bootloader unlocked. OEM unlock was easy peasy to get with the debloat script found elsewhere in the opo threads here
Actually I have to say this is one of the better performing devices that I've owned. Similar to some of the flagship phones I've had. Only the refresh rate I guess would be a turn off for some though it doesn't bother me at all.
N20 of course
6/128 can make big difference from N200
Due to limit of response time, 90Hz IPS may not be better than 60Hz AMOLED
695 is like 750 according to Geekbench

Oem unlock means sim unlock or bootloader unlock?

in short, bootloader unlock.
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. It refers to the manufacturer lock on the bootloader. It is a security feature to keep you from accidentally bricking your device by tampering with the system images/files or malware from being able to modify or tamper with your system. This is why SafetyNet fails when you root and many banking apps and games check SafetyNet at the beginning of execution to make sure that your running a secure system before they allow an app to open. There are some ways to get around that by hiding root/magisk with Xposed modules(LSposed) etc... Some methods work for some apps and others dont. Make sure you have everything backed up before doing any modifications to your system because its easy to brick your device(make it unbootable/nonfunctional)
I havent found a way to SIM unlock without going through the carrier. There are services out there that claim to be able to SIM unlock your device for a fee, and many have been reviewed by other members. I have not personally ever used one. But here Im referring to unlocking the bootloader so that the system on the device can be modified (rooted, non-stock ROMs, system tweaks/mods)

I read your posts and decided on the N20 as well and I must say this is an AWESOME little phone.
It came with the stock July OS. I have read many of the posts on here but I'm sort of stuck. I can't seem to figure out how to get a copy of the original OS. Read some options saying if i couldnt get a copy I could try to make one using twrp but that went down a dead end and I am back to square one. I have enabled developer mode, debug over usb, and set the setting to allow oem unlock and I'm kind of stuck at this point. My goal is to root this thing so that I can get call recording working like my older phones.

You should seriously flash this before anything and it'll save you from bootloop
Thank you so much! I am downloading now.
This is the one I picked up just for reference. 8 digit serial number on this model.
I disabled automatic updates and had the oem bootloader unlocked as well as all playstore options for updates disabled and this morning the phone updated itself without warning to the august update. It started talking about upgraded to android s and i factory reset it hoping it would roll everything back, but nope. Stuck on stupid August Update. I just wanted to get root back on it with call recording and lock down all android os updates.

How do I flash this first? I am starting fresh again tonight and want to do it right.
Gotcha,
So I have chosen to begin this portion with the following.
Disable DM-Verity or Android Verified Boot without TWRP
In this tutorial, we will show you the steps to disable DM-Verity or Android Verified Boot (AVB) without using TWRP Recovery.
www.droidwin.com
First step is to get a stock image file. However I have not been able to make a copy of my stock rom nor the current stock rom on my Phone now which is now on August patch 2022-09-05. I have downloaded several copies but there have been posts saying not to use just any version of stock rom so I'm trying to make sure i'm doing this right.
I am also on
Build Number CPH2459_11_A.08
Basebane version Q_V1_P14
Kernel version 5.4.147-qgki-g26211b5d5105
Hardware version CPH2459_11
I have the following files downloaded to work with.
I'm thinking of using this one.
Inside the following files can be found
If this is all right then I will try to continue with this portion of their instructional.
Does this sound about right?
