Hi,
I already have a network unlock code from my operator, but neither they or myself can work out where to enter it!
I have googled and sent LG an email but I haven't heard anything.
Does anyone know where I should enter the unlock code?
Thanks
Try this:
How to insert the Unlock CODE into your LG P500 Optimus One
Insert a not accepted SIM Card and turn ON your LG P500 Optimus One.
Your LG P500 Optimus One will display "phone restricted".
Select Cancel
Your LG P500 Optimus One will display "phone restriction code".
Enter the Unlock CODE you received from UnlockallCellular.com
Select OK
Your LG P500 Optimus One is now unlocked!
Cheers
Hi,
thanks I forgot to mention I tried that. When I have another SIM in it it doesn't say restricted, only says Handset Network Locked. It doesn't give me the option to enter anything
I think there is a *# combination.
I allready saw it here on the forum.
But can't find it anywhere...
Try this code:
2945#*500#
Cheers
Thank you ever so much!
Score one for XDA!
Really appreciated
If it worked please change the topic name to "[REF] Enter in P500 unlock menu", for further searches.
Cheers
hey op, where did you get the unlock code? i've been trying to find a site that can do it but none of them have it yet.

I guess that this codes are for unblock phone in other operators net, aren't? If so, then it haven't sence for me. Our operators have to sell already unlocket mobiles.
2945#*500# doesn't work on my phone. i am using CM7 Rom by Mik
I came across a site which is selling LG unlock code for €8.00 but i don't know how to enter the code.
And also when i insert a sim from different network, it doesn't ask for unlock code or doesn't even show that my phone is restricted. Only says no network. Is that because i am no using LG branded rom?
I took the phone to a unlocking shop and they said they could unlock the phone by connecting it to a computer. By changing some firmware details. But i am not too sure about this. I am using Mik's rom and i don't want them to change anything around. I have custom recovery installed and i little afraid about this. And i am also afraid that after they change the firmware will i be able to flash new ROM? and if i flash new ROM will that lock my phone again?
So if you guys have any idea, please share
ı using 2945#*500# ' Your Phone is not personalized. ' ????
i can confirm, dialing 2945#*509# does not work on Mik's CM7 rom. It's worthwhile to note that the last three digits should change to whatever the model number of phone is (for me, I have an LG P509-T). It's my assumption that you must be on the stock firmware, or at least a firmware that is based on the stock ROM in order for this to work. I remember several months ago I tried this on MegatronV1 and I was able to get the unlock screen to come up, but I had no idea how to get an unlock code at the time.
I suppose that for those of us who are running Gingerbread, the only solutions for this are to roll back to a froyo rom based on the original firmware, roll back to the original firmware itself (hope you made a nandroid backup before you got all flash happy!) or if you're intent on sticking with gingerbread, wait a couple months until the Gingerbread firmware has been officially pushed to the Optimus and the devs can start cooking roms based on the new firmware.
Just a thought; if you unlock your phone on a custom firmware when you flash another rom, do you have to unlock it again? I'd be interested to find out.

I am in the same boat, so no solution is it?
Thanks, tried all 5. None worked here. KOODO in canada in case anyone comes across the thread in a search
I too have a Koodo phone. Th # sequence stated does in fact bring me to the unlock screen. Unfortunately it says I only get 10 chances. I believe there are different unlock codes as per your IMEI. What gets me is, the people in the malls who sit in their kiosks and unlock phones at $40 to $50 bucks a piece are just typing the IMEI into a program and popping out an unlock code. I would really like to get my hands on that software, and then I would start doing the unlocking on the side for far less than what they charge.
Thanks!

Other than the OEM ROM, is there any other ROM that allows access to the unlock menu?

First of all, I'm from China, my English is not very well, maybe you can't understand what I'm saying. I'm so sorry to my college English teacher that I haven't learn hard in his class.
Now let's entering the title：
I have a SAMSUNG Exhilarate(SGH-I577 AT&T) which my sister bring back from NewYork, and I want it to use my Chinamobile SIM card, and there comes the problem. When I insert my Chinamobile SIM card into the phone, it needs me to input "sim network unlock pin" ,but I don't have this number.
First what I'm thinking is to flash a rom, but this phone model doesn't released in China, I've been searched for 2 days, and finally find it's rom in this forum, I've downloaded two roms

I've been successfully flashing both of them, but when I insert my Chinamobile SIM card, it all needs to input "sim network unlock pin" :crying:
I searched whole day to find a way to unlock this, I've tried Samsung Galaxy S Unlock Tool, it doesn't work. Someone said there is a nv_data.bin file in the system, but I haven't found it even by using ReExplorer. Then I find Samsung tool and installed in my computer, but it doesn't work, does this software need to purchase?
So anybody call tell me how to unlock my phone, Is there any expert, proficient, mybe god can help me, Can someone give me a detailed description how to do this,
you can reply to this thread or send me an email:[email protected]
I'll give you my best regard.

My father always says that I keep learning from the forums and I never write anything. Well now something discovered by me. At least I believe so after browsing Internet for several hours.
I read the above recomendation of "kew1701" about flashing a modem of the t989 to the i577, and I thought: That will probably brick my i577 because the i577 is LTE and the t989 don't. It worked for the t769 because the t769 is not LTE either. And both the t989 and the t769 are for T-Mobile.
So I decided to give the try on my i577 with the modem I use to unlock the i727, the UCLD2. I assured my i577 was on ICS 4.0.4 and installed the modem with TWRP.
I originally downloaded that modem from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029650
(I thank that thread).
Followed the *#197328640# steps and it worked like a charm! Unlocked!. IMEI intact and all working. Now probably will flash back a i577 stock firmware, if I find it.
(My phone was on 4.0.4 UCLH3)
Enjoy.
Nice

Hello guys,
I've tried to cut it short.
I would try all day unlock my S3 sim lock, but its failed every times. I am new in android customization so I read all things what I found, mostly the best hopes in here. So, it was an sim unlocked Galaxy S3 when I bought it, with android 4.0.4, I would like to upgrade it to 4.1.2 stock rom but it was some custom rom so its wont went automatically, I used Odin to Flash it with the stock 4.1.2 what I found here but it has the sim lock, I was tried more 4 unlocked roms but its stayed sim locked, I try all methods what I found but nothing worked, now the default IMEI changed.
Is it possible to homemade sim unlock it for free ?
(sorry for my bad english)

I am sorry for my bad english again, I mean unlocking the sim network at home, not in the service shop.
Hi All,
I have a Galaxy S2 which is SIM locked to the '3' network in the UK. I have contacted the carrier and they have provided me with an unlock code. However, when I am prompted to insert the code when I put in a different SIM card the code is rejected. I've also tried running the GalaxySimUnlock app which also came up with the same code that I got from my carrier.
My phone was originally updated to stock ICS but I then flashed it to CM 9 and then MIUI. I initially tried the sim unlock with MIUI running. I've now returned the phone to the stock 3 image - it's currently running 4.1.2 baseband I9100NELS1.
Has anyone had this problem before or can you shed some light on what is going wrong - I thought if I contacted the carrier this would be simple!
Many thanks,
Steve
Make your PC's network is sold. You have tried many software unlocking by noon?
Hi duykhanh187,
I'm not sure quite what you mean! I have contacted my carrier and have got what they believe to be a good unlock code but it is not working.
Thank you for your reply,
Steve

Hi Steve,
I've seen the same problem before as well, so I've very keen to see if
XDA-D have a suggestion to help solve this issue.
Good luck,
Tink!
I have seen a number of questions that are simular to this, but I have not been abe to find one that is like mine, therefore I am posting this.
I have a Galaxy S3 International version that was bought from Digicel Jamaica. It is completely paid for, I called Digicel to ask the for a unlock code. they informed me that they do not do that and I would have to go and get it professionally unlocked. the reason I want it unlocked is that I not longer live in Jamaica, but now live in the US and would like to use the phone for the next couple of months until I can get a phone on contract.
I have tried everything I have seen on this site, including getting a unlock key. nothing works.
I upgraded the phone 4.3 sometime ago and have also rooted it in the pass.
Whenever I try the *#197328640# , after [6] Network Lock I get no menu options see .
PLEASE HELP ME :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
I have also tried using RegionLock Away and Galaxsim Unlock, both tell me my phone is unlocked, but I still can't use another sim in the phone.
PS. I am using a T-Mobile Sim from straight talk
You can't region unlock on 4.3 at all, sim lock is possible but only if you buy a valid code -there is no other way and your posts are identical to hundreds of others.

I have a valid code, but the SIM unlock doesn't work with the code. I have tried everything I have seen online, downgraded to 4.1.1, replaced the stock 4.1.2 that came with the phone.... nothing works
