Is there a way to add back the "Local Upgrade" feature for OnePlus devices
It's come to my attention in the process of trying to update my phone from Android 11 to A12 when I was rudely informed that T-Mobile has exclusive controls over my updates. I find that a violation of my rights to own the phone. I am paying it off and more than half way through it already. I'm not sure that paying it off fully would make much of a difference, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I want to be able to willfully update my phone as I please, as the OxygenOS updater gives me explicit permission from ONEPLUS THEMSELVES to help update my phone in a more timely manor, until I receive this notification; "It looks like you're using a carrier locked device, so no updates for you. T-Mobile will do the updating from here on out" Basically the short version, does unlocking the carrier help with this? Any tips, suggestions, and work arounds? Anything will help
