Hey guys,
So i have an Alcatel OT 990 with GB 2.3.4.
I purchased online codes for unlocking it wich proved to be completely useles, it just didnt work.
I guess i was conned.
Now when i open the phone it asks for this : SIM network unlock PIN
even when i put back the original SIM!
Do you know what are the solutions for this problem?
I dont know if this phone is able to be unlocked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as i now have a completely useless phone!
Thanks

Hi all,
I have purchased a samsung galaxy vibrant from a USA seller and I live in the UK. The phone will come with no sim. I want to be able to use it in the UK on the vodafone network.
Can anyone advise me please on how best to deal with this situation - I am android challenged so please be gentle. I have done some searches but didnt see any answer to this specific type question.
I am not sure if T-Mobile Samsung is sim locked but am assuming it is but maybe you guys n gals may be able to advise me more on this.
Thanks in advance
If its from a tmobile store it will be locked. Expansys and other online retailers are selling them unlocked meaning they're prob unlocking them prior. You would need the code. The codes are also stored on the phone in the nv_data.bin but you need root to access it that way. There's a market app to get the unlock code but that prob won't help you. Best way would be to root, copy the nv_data.bin to your pc and use the windows utility to get the code. Then the phone will prompt for the code with your sim inserted. Hopefully they already unlocked it. Search the forum for the unlock procedures, they are well documented.
Thanks for the reply I really appreciate your help on this. Person I bought it from has just contacted me to say that they got it from T-mobile themselves in a 2-1 promotion.
They said "I bought the phone from Tmobile without a sim card. The associate told me that you can unlock this one with an unlock code".
Sorry for such a noob question ... When I get the phone will it be able to be root the phone with no T-mobile phone sim card in it? Can it be rooted with any sim card or no sim card?
Thanks in advance.

Hello
i recived SGSII for xmas, but i guess it is locked for Orange because phone wants some network code
so is flash costom rom solution or do i need any other instruction?
many thanks
You will still have to run a app to unlock the phone or one to get to code.
I suggest this one it works on more phones then the code ones and since it doesn't give codes so you can't type them wrong.

Hi guys ,
I have got a sprint lg g3 ls990. which was already unlocked when i got that and was running flumics rom.
But i want to restore it to stock lollipop.

your help will truly be appreciated.

I don't really know the answer to this question because I've never used GSM or had to deal with SIM-related stuff, so this might be a dumb question, but does it just require an unlock code? Is this the same code that you can view in the "About Phone" menu in the options? The one that's called UICC unlock or something? Check out this thread here...
Is it already locked with a PIN right now? I don't even know if locked SIMs persist across factory resets, but if they do I would check online to see if that's all you need, or how it works. Maybe a Google search with something like UICC unlock SIM GSM LG G3 Sprint factory reset, for example. Sorry if I'm already telling you stuff you know.
