I got a SIM unlock code from Tmobile, however it is not working with CM10, so I went back to the RUU and tried and it still didnt work. Any ideas of what I need to do?
contact the person you got the unlock code from to re-enter the code.. or you can always s-off your device and use the unlock sim for s-off method which would disable the sim lock on your phone

hi,
i have tried the superCID and cant get it to work. all i need is to sim unlock my phone.
is there any simple ways just to sim unlock the phone (without paying)
thanks
Try jocky's security unlocker, theorically it should remove SIM lock with all other security stuff.
I have a T-mobile Vibrant that i need to unlock for ATT but it doesnt want to unlock. Ive searched multiple ways to unlock it but they all seem to require a tmobile sim card which i do not have. Is there a Method i can unlock the phone without a Tmobile sim...Ive tried SGS Unlock too but keep on getting the Unknown Error.
At some point in the past I setup an unlock code for my SIM card using ThunderShed (CM 7.2). I know the code, I have to enter it every time I reboot the phone (or come out of airplane mode). The situation is, the unlock code only works with the ThunderShed ROM. That sounds as weird to me as it does to you. Any other ROM I flash will not accept my unlock code. Even weirder, there is no option to remove the SIM unlock code in the Settings. "Location and security" is where it should be, but it isn't. So I cannot flash any other ROM w/o removing the SIM unlock code, and I cannot remove the SIM unlock code with my current ROM.
Any suggestions would be most welcome!
So I installed a custom rom on my phone after unlocking BL and all that a while ago.
I recently got the unlock code from my service provider and was trying to sim unlock the L9. I get an error saying I have an invalid code (which it isn't). A quick google told me that custom roms sometimes won't let you use unlock codes.
I tried using the guide from @cmahendra to reset back to the original kdz/ROM for the phone but it stops at 15% and says phone not connected (even through all the drivers install/are installed correctly).
Does anyone know best way to unlock the phone with the unlock pin provided? Or at least how to reset it back to normal?
yeah, it uses the device unlock app.no it says i'm not eligible for unlock.the seller who sold it to me even requested tmo and was denied.tried rooting and messing with system files now it says can't connect to remote server even after reflashing stock using LGUP.Tried using the f600l rom port, no you can't get the sim unlock prompt to pop up.tried blisspop and resurrection roms, they do prompt for a sim code but the codes do not work it says 255 retries remaining<<<something not right there.I do have the right unlock codes, just get them from an unlocking site or ebay.Speaking of unlocking sites, they want 60usd+ to unlock the tmo variant WTF!! Also if you try to get into the sim unlock menu using stock rom (dial 2945#*901#) it just says device permanently locked for everything.Now if there was a way to get a stock rom or port from say at&t variant which has the sim unlock prompt it just might work.
The closest i've got to unlocking this thing i the actual network unlock screen that comes after you flash the stock firmwire through LGUP. it said 0/30 attempts or something for a brief second or two the first boot after reflashing and then it restarts before you can even do anything into os never to be seen again unless you reflash it again but again you will only see it for a second and its gone again.I wonder if there is a way to keep that screen on so you can attempt to unlock it via code.
Also I'm pretty sure the device unlock app is just there to check prerequisites of your t mo account.In reality it does unlock the same way as other phones.probably just applies unlock code from tmo database once it checks you've met the criteria for unlock.
t-mo has really locked these down .
So has anyone been able to successfully unlock this phone without the tmo app? or have a cheaper service to unlock this thing ? Else im stuck with a paperweight.
