I have a T-Mobile US variant of S22+ but I can't find the OEM unlock in the Developer Options. Is there a way to get this phone OEM unlocked?
By unlocked, do you mean unlocking the SIM from T-Mobile? If so, then you need to call T-Mobile and request it to be unlocked.

No. OEM unlocking, for the bootloader. There's no OEM unlock switch

Hello all,
Here a tutorial for how to install the TWRP 2.8.6.1 on a Oneplus 2 device.
Attention:
I am not liable for breaking your own phone. I do this every day for customers and often it always works. It may be that something goes wrong (errors I have not come across!
First you must unlock your bootloader, to install TWRP later.
Step 1. Unlocking your bootloader!
Download adb & fastboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 i am using version 1.3
Enable OEM unlock and USB debugging:
Go to your phone’s settings » About phone » and tap “Build number” Seven/Ten times. This will enable Developer options on your OnePlus 2.
Now go to Settings » Developer options » and look for “Enable OEM unlock” option, tick the checkbox next to it.
On the same page, also tick the USB debugging checkbox.
Step 3.
Connect your phone to PC and open a command window on the PC.
Step 4.
Reboot your OnePlus 2 into Bootloader/Fastboot mode by issuing the following command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
└ Check your phone’s screen, if it asks for “Allow USB debugging”, accept it by selecting OK/Yes.
Once it is booted into Bootloader mode, issue the following command to finally unlock bootloader on your OnePlus 2:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
└ This will unlock the bootloader on your OnePlus 2 and also completely wipe your phone while doing that. So make sure you backup everything important on your device before unlocking the bootloader.
Once bootloader is unlocked, your OnePlus 2 will automatically reboot. In case it asks for bootloader unlock permission on the device, accept it.
That’s all. Your OnePlus 2 bootloader should be unlocked now and you can install/flash a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM on it.
Installing TWRP 2.8.6.1 on Oneplus 2
Step 1.
Download the TWRP 2.8.6.1.img from here: https://xq55.app.box.com/OnePlus2Recovery/1/4224692657/34795782429/1
Note: This guide assumes that your device has an unlocked bootloader.
Step 2.
Enable USB debugging on your device:
Open Settings on your device.
Go to About phone and tap seven times on Build number, this will enable Developer options.
Now go back to Settings and you’ll see “Developer options” there, open it.
Tick the USB Debugging checkbox.
Step 3.
Open the folder where your TWRP Recovery .img file is saved.
Step 4.
Now open a command window inside that folder. To do that, “Shift + Right click” on any empty white space inside the folder and then select “Open command window here” from the context menu.
Step 5. Connect your device to the PC. And type the following into the command window we opened in step 4 above to boot your device into bootloader/fastboot mode:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
└ If your asks for permission to “Allow USB debugging”, tap OK.
Step 6.
Once your device boots into bootloader mode, issue the following command into command window to flash the TWRP recovery .img file:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img
└ Here modify twrp.img with the name of your TWRP recovery .img file, OR change your TWRP recovery filename to twrp.img and use the command above.
Step 7.
Once TWRP is successfully flashed on your device, issue the following command to reboot:
Code:
fastboot reboot
That’s all. We hope this guide serves you well. If there’s anything you’d like to be added/changed on this page, let us know about it in the comments section below.

Hi, is there the same problem with TWRP 2.8.7.0 than with the ONE ? I mean it doesn't flash radio files
Thanks
Thanks for the info. Just a small check.
Is the Warrenty void? Cause oneplus is always open for developers and I remember many mentioning that..,
YOUR WARRENTY IS NOT VOID in the previous opo forums.
Is there a version of TWRP that's actually built by the TWRP team? Everyone keeps linking to this site and I don't trust it, especially because they actually branded their site's name directly into TWRP.

Your warranty is not void by unlocking bootloader as confirmed by Oneplus on their forum.

Hey all,
--> I'm trying to flash TWRP to my Sony Z5 Compact, but the flash fails during the writing process of the .img file
--> It gives me the following error: FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
--> I am currently running build number 32.3.A.2.33
--> The phone is NOT rooted (but this should not matter I think... because I cant do that either if I cant write anything to my phone...)
Things that I have already done:
1. I enabled OEM unlocking in the developer options.
2. I enabled USB-Debugging in the developer options
3. The ADB and Fastboot drivers are working correctly
Does anyone know how I can fix this issue? I have already browsed the web for a fix, found a lot of people having the same issue, but nothing has worked for me.
Thanks in advance!

i didnt see you unlocked the bootloader, i guess this is the problem
Here link:
https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/

its always good idea to backup also DRM keys also unlock takes your warranty
A. Install the Android SDK and the device drivers
1. Download and install the Android SDK. The SDK Manager is included in Android Studio, but you don’t need to install more than the basic Android command line tools. These can be found at the bottom of the page.
Tip: Take note of the installation path, you may need to access specific files later.
a. If you are running Windows: You need to install additional drivers.
1. When completing the installation, open the Android SDK Manager and go to the Extras folder to install the Google USB driver.
2. Download and install an updated Fastboot driver. This is the standardandroid_winusb.inf-file, with a few lines of code added to enable Fastboot to support Sony devices.
3. Replace the original android_winusb.inf-file with the downloaded file in theusb_driver folder, located in the Android >sdk > extras > google folder on your computer.
b. If you’re running OSX or Linux, you are not required to install any additional drivers.
2. On your device, turn on USB debugging by going to Settings > Developer options and click to enable USB debugging.
a. If your device is Android Jelly Bean 4.2 or newer: Developer options are hidden by default. To enable, tap on Settings > About Phone > Build Version multiple times. Then, turn on USB debugging by going to Settings > Developer options.
B. Connect to Fastboot
1. Turn off your Xperia™ Z5 Compact.
2. Connect a USB-cable to your computer.
3. On your Xperia™ Z5 Compact, press the Volume up button at the same time as you connect the other end of the USB-cable.
a. Windows users: When asked for a driver, open the Devices and Printers directory, click on the fastboot driver and press Update. Browse and point towards the location of the new android_winbus.inf file.
4. When your device is connected, open a command window on your computer and go to the platform-tools folder within the Android SDK folder.
5. Enter the following command:
fastboot devices
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6. Verify that you get an answer back without any errors.
C. Enter unlock key
WARNING! The command below contains your unlock key. If you perform this step, you will unlock the boot loader. This may void your warranty and/or any warranty from your operator.
1. If you still want to unlock the boot loader of your device, enter the following command:
fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0x(here your code you got by sony)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. Verify that you get an answer back without any errors.
D. Done!
You have now unlocked the boot loader of your device
good luck, update if got it right
PS .i posted my imei by mistake hope i didnt miss to remove another :X
Hey man! Thanks for the quick response! Went right to work with it this morning... and it fixed it!
--> I completely missed the next steps from Sony. for some reason I thought that OEM unlocking option would do the magic lol..
--> After I unlocked it through cmd it was a breeze from there! Got my TWRP on there and the Lineage ROM
Thanks!
Like the title suggests, it has been 4 days since I got permission to unlock the bootloader via sms

Been trying to unlock the bootleader once daily with no success. Always get the same message that 'Current account is not bound to this device' even tho I only have one MI account which I use to login both on my PC and my RN4. Also I have the options USB debugging and OEM unlocking enabled on my device .
Any suggestions guys? :crying:

If you mean this
Then I've done that as well
Give it two days
while setting up device,u should log in with mi account, Not anytime later(personal experience).
Give it two more days or upgrade to miui beta roms, they usually have fewer errors while unlocking.
Wait few more days. :0
dude patient's is the secret for unlocking the bootloader
Use latest mi unlocker and also install mi usb driver and dont forget to enable oem unlocking in developer option and debugging option.
Need not to wait for day
Follow this step and you will be able to unlock your bootloader.
Its just a myth these guys created to wait for few days .
I got premission within 6 hours of applying and the moment i got sms regarding premission granted and so in 5 mint i got my phone unlocked.

I'm pretty sure I have the latest versions of the unlocker and drivers.
As for the developer options, I've enabled them as well, as shown in the screenshots above.
Oh well, looks like I have to wait for a few more days.
It is a common error. Wait for few days and it will be fixed

Thank You.
This does still work with Android 11 and Feb 2022 security patch.
I don't know if it's my device OR it's model specific (I'm using TA-1149, sold in LATAM), but the guide didn't work for me (after flashing unlock command, it just reboots and bootloader is still locked).
However, the method I used was all of the above, but changing "fastboot flashing unlock" to "fastboot oem unlock".
After that, my bootloader unlocked just fine.
Maybe useful for another variants of this phone or just for TA-1149?
As the title indicates I am currently in the process of rooting my LG V60 Verizon Variant. However, I am running into a issue when using QFIL.
I am following the V60 Bootloader Unlock and Magisk Root by crimsonrommer: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/v60-bootloader-unlock-and-magisk-root.4358785/
Here is steps 1-5 from the guide:
If you already have it unhidden go to Developer Options under Settings -> System and enable OEM Unlock as well as USB Debugging. If you don't see Developer Options go to Settings => System => About Phone => Software Information and tap Build Number until it either asks you for your password or says you are a developer at the bottom. Verizon Users: You will not see the oem unlock option, we will fix this later in this guide.
Get it into 9008 Mode: (This may take several tries)
Make sure you are connected to your computer via USB.
Hold Volume Down and Power until it shuts off
Now here's the tricky part, as soon as the screen turns off, immediately start tapping volume up quickly, but do not let go of volume down and power, if you did it successfully you will see your screen is off but it appears either in Device Manager or Windows plays the Device Connected sound.
Open and Configure QFIL as shown below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
4. After that click Browse and select the Firehose you downloaded earlier
5. Next go to the Tools menu at the top then select Partition Manager (If this errors please reboot back into edl using the steps mentioned above!)
All of the previous steps have been followed to my knowledge. Below is a video link showing what happens when I try to access the partition manager:
