Anyone can unlock Sprint LG V20 remotly ? - LG V20 Questions & Answers

When i pop in my t-mobile sim card, the phone does not recognize it or prompt me for a network code or anything ? anyone know of someone or a service to sim unlock the sprint variant ? Thank you

Bump

I'm also trying to figure this out, as I am not able to even connect to T-Mobiles server to trigger the unlock. All that my unlock app does is just sit there with a spinning wheel and say " connecting to server, please wait " , so if I cannot get passed that than I'm screwed cause it's gotta at least prompt me if I want to unlock permanently or temporary. Darn thing just keeps spinning like I'm blocked from even connecting. Can someone who is rooted check to see if their phone will prompt for an unlock or not? Thanks in advance!

If the T-Mobile unlock app is on the Sprint version (Which I doubt) use this site https://www.unlockbase.com/phone-unlocking-service/tmobile-device-unlock-app-official-unlock/ otherwise you might contact them and find out if they can sim unlock it another way. Or sideload the T-Mobile Unlock app and see if it works that way (I doubt this would work but you never know til you try)

If you are rooted, it can detect it and it will stay on the spinning wheel. Only way I got it to work was to restore to stock no root and it worked (It kept giving me a unlock not available until I bought the unlock service from https://www.unlockbase.com/phone-unlocking-service/tmobile-device-unlock-app-official-unlock/ )

Dirty Santa sim unlocks the Sprint variant,not sure for T-Mobile

I was thinking that it was because I was rooted , so I guess I will try and restore to an unrooted state and see if that makes a difference.

I found a guy on ebay who supposedly can unlock the Sprint V20 for $50.

Don't bother. All he will do is already what you can do. Root your phone and use the US996 Rom on it(btw try that.)

is the phone paid off in full? no more monthly obligation? if not that's the reason you can't unlock. it's because you don't own the phone sprint does. NO ONE can get a device unlocked from distributor without full payment fulfillment.

It works fine if you have a rom thats unlocked(for some unknown reason.)

Anything on this?!!! Im about to buy a service but when I pop another sim it doesn't prompt the unlock code screen I heard there's a way to manually get there any help?! Dirty Santa does the trick I heard but rooting the v20 is not easy and I heard lots of side effects

Supposedly yes. i never tested it.

yes sprint unlocks it remotely that is what they did with mine, once I called in they had you run the uicc unlock option in updates. it will say uicc unlocked successfully.

I too experienced problems unlocking my I337M device (not AT&T, it's the Canadian version, hence the "M" in device model). After trying the keypad menu method and failing, I tried sending my IMEI number into a website to generate a key, but apparently the Samsung servers were experiencing a global delay and they refunded me after two days. (This delay was confirmed from multiple sources.) I then tried a tethered method using an application offered by an unlocking website. It cost $15 (compare at $35 for the IMEI method) and it worked instantly! This was after two days' worth of trying other methods. I won't give you the exact link, but if you google "fastgsm", it should come up. Make sure it's the tethered method. Good luck.
thanx!

The FASTGSM website says:- Warning
Check your phone’s software version by going to Settings > About device. If Baseband version ends with MI1 or later (e.g. MJ1), your phone is not supported for USB unlocking. Use a different unlock method or downgrade your phone’s firmware.
And iam on mf3. So i think it should work!( f comes before i)
I used the FastGSM tethered method, and it worked on my MF3 stock rooted rom. Granted, I do not have MF3 bootloaders, but it otherwise seemed to work. The instructions included inside the program have you dial *#0808#, but other instructions (like the ones on their website) have to go and install a bunch of crap to your phone and dial some other number, but I found the *#0808# will get you straight to the options you need to switch your phone over to DM mode. Also don't forget to switch it back to MTP + ADB (or MTP-only if you don't want ADB debugging on).
EDIT: also make sure you have a completely unfiltered network connection. I tried it on my work's "guest" wireless that has far fewer restrictions, but it blocks something within FastGSM's app that reaches out to their servers right before performing the unlock. It's a safety to avoid them handing out a bunch of free unlocks.
Also! I forgot that I didn't have a 100% success. It didn't unlock the phone by itself, but it did at least provide me the network unlock code. I manually entered this on my phone and it worked the first time. Don't try entering the code multiple times if it doesn't work the first time! Save a copy of the log it makes, but don't post it here (includes IMEI).

I have tried using their usb method and it didnt work and they give me full refund.
I tried free method many many many times with original firmware and the lastest and it failed everytime. I even got the unlock code from att and it also didnt work. I was able to get my phone replaced because of the unlock code didnt unlock the phone. They gave me hard time but i was able to get replacement.
The replacement had the latest firmware, so i didnt try the free method or usb unlock, i just got the code from att and it worked. The free unlock method def. does something that prevents the phone from being unlocked.

From what I've seen on xda it appears that if you have mf3 firmware the sim unlock does not work. It's just an observation and I may be wrong.

This is exactly how I have unlocked all of my devices on AT&T. I just chat with international support, tell them I am going out of country and would like to use my phone there. They ask for the IMEI and within a minute give me an unlock code. Never had anyone say no, and never had issues. Unlocked S2, S3, S4, Atrix. All phones except S3 purchased on contract and still no problems.
Idk why anyone would pay $35 for something that is so easy and free and the unlock code is guaranteed to work.

galaxy s4 sgh I337 at&t unlock

Hey there, I have a samsung galaxy s4 sgh-i337 locked to at&t.
I bought an unlocking code from an ebay user.
it doesn't unlock my phone, it writes: "unlock request unsuccesful". I tried to use the defreeze code and then again the network code, still nothing.
I was referred to a guide that suppose to show me the "service mode menu", by entering *#0011# . so service mode goes on when i put that number in the dial pad, but then I suppose to do 'menu key'->'back'->'menu key'->'key input'->'1', but after I do that nothing happens, the service mode menu with all the options doesn't pop up, it stays in the same page of the service mode. somewhere down on the ServiceMode page it writes "Service:Limited". what should I do?
Talk with an at&t rep or chat online and indicate that you will be traveling and want to use this phone there and they'll give u a unlock code..

Someone... Help.. please
no Mega genius here that can solve my problem?
same boat here man, this is a new problem since not everyone has 4.3 yet. Att won't even give me the unlock code since they changed eligibility few months ago to "only off contract or fulfilled contract phones." I've read one person saying the eBay unlock code didnt work on 4.3 either. And the only success i've heard is another post here on XDA saying they unlocked 4.3 using the regionlockaway app, but they apparently Odin flashed 4.2.2, did the regionlockaway while the phone had no sound/wifi etc., then Odin flashed 4.3(locked again), then flashed 4.2.2 odin again, regionlockaway'ed, then odin'ed 4.3 again and the unlock stayed. That sounds ridiculous and is not an exact science.
So i'm done with At&t's phone slavery and switching to T-mobile on a nexus till the Xperia Z1 is out. I thought this was the future.

how much do you think they'll take?
If you have another $20.50 go to Myhoian's website it's unlockcode247.com it'll take about a full day or over 12 hours usually but not longer than that he's never failed to unlock any of my phones.

My carrier said I was qualified to do the unlock. How are these services? Paying that much money on a limb sounds sketchy and most endorsers seem to be part of the sketchiness. Anyone else have experience using the only sites?

If you are an AT&T customer or a previous member you can unlock your AT&T phone by going here. It is FREE and i have done it with all my phones so far. They provide you with an unlock code and all you have to do is insert the new non-at&t sim and enter the unlock code.

Since you have the unlock code, it will be almost the same thing. All you do is insert the non-att sim card and it will ask you to enter the unlock code. Enter the code and now you have an unlocked phone.

depends if u need your MSL
to root you 1st need to unlock the bootloader via htcdev.com
after unlocking bootloader, you need to flash TWRP from download mode
boot into TWRP to flash either Magisk (my preference) or SuperSU

HTC Bolt SIM-Unlock
I followed the steps from the instructions and was able to SIM-Unlock the phone.
Also, performed UICC unlock in Software Updates after I paid off the phone.
I tested it with a friend's T-Mobile SIM and worked flawlessly.
Also tested with another friend's AT&T SIM and again worked flawlessly.
I have since switched to Verizon and found out that it will not work on Verizon, so I decided to sell it.
Sold it on eBay and now the guy who purchased it says he is getting the following error :
"GSM/UMTS Mode not supported in the U.S. Only foreign SIM card usable in device. Your device will switch to CDMA mode now."
When I google this error, everything I find is for older HTC devices, and these posts are back from 2011.
Has anyone come across this, or do you think this guy is trying to pull a fast one on me?
Again, I know for a fact it is unlocked and will work on AT&T but he says it is still SIM-Locked, and says the MSL code I gave him is incorrect.
Pretty sure a phone cannot re-lock itself.. am I wrong?

You have to wait a while for the unlock to go through. I've never unlocked my phone but I've seen videos so I have some knowledge

Something happened with OS in your phone. Maybe it was rooted, or maybe some error in the system. Any how. Just flash your phone with stock rom. The original firmware that it had, and the code should work. Also try factory reset first. That may work as well.
Good luck.
Pm me i'll unlock it for u for free

ok I have a g930az... (s7) frp locked... ex girlfriend thought it would be funny... it's not...im on US4AQA1 firmware6.0.1/mmb29m/930aztus4aqa1 user/release-keys
I thought since I was on MM I could do this with no issue... but everytime I flash anything but pure stock all 4 firmware files I can't boot past the splash screen... bootlooop on off on off... forever... I have tried every 930u a and v combofile and qc engboot file I could find... I've done the FRO unlock on many before this but this one is nuts... i think she may have done something else I dunno/..
