[Q] Samsung carrier check

First of all, i'm sorry for posting in this topic but haven't seen a General Samsung topic here.
I'm working to complete a Samsung Carrier Checker and currently missing some details.
Here is a sample:
Code:
IMEI Number: 35xx600621949xx
Serial Number: RF8xx21FGxX
UnNumber: 04157DF48098Exx < This i have no ideea what it is.
Model Info: MOBILE SM-G925F BLACK H3G
Model Number: SM-G925FZKEH3G < This is the model and the las 3 chars define the Carrier and Country. Example H3G = United Kingdom H3g Hutchison
Model Name: SM-G925F
Warranty Status: In Warranty
Purchase Date: 04.26.2015
Production Date: 04.24.2015
Manufacturer: P518 Samsung Electronics Vietnam < This is the place where it was manufatured, P518 means the plant id and the plant name is Samsung Electronics Vietnam
Carrier: United Kingdom H3g Hutchison
Sold By: United Kingdom / 27 April 2015
Ship To: United Kingdom / 07 May 2015
What i need:
- A complete list of carrier codes like "H3G", i have some of them from sammobile but its not complete.
- A complete list of plantcodes like "P518 ", i have some of them but its not complete.
- A way to get model info from imei or serial, because on some imeis GSPN server not replies it (Model Info: MOBILE SM-G925F BLACK H3G)
- Maybe some knows what UnNumber: 04157DF48098Exx means.
Thanks!

All the reviews I have read about the M6 Note seem to say that it has built in root access, well mine does not have this feature. I have not found any reason as 2 why this is missing. This is not carrier branded with Mobile Provider patches or apps pre-installed. Any help would be appreciated. Here is my device info.

US T-Mobile with EU Honor 8X

I am about to blow my brains out with this one.......
Guys just a quick question if possible. I got this Honor 8X unit, a JSN-L21 and according to gsmarena this device not only has GSM but also CDMA. All I am trying to do is to use it with T-Mobile or ATT and have LTE on it.
So I tried BYOP with T-Mo and they're saying that this unit doesn't have VoLTE ..... well I don't know about that and I can't believe that 2018 phone doesn't have that. But again I don't know. And ATT refuses to work with it period, showing no service or emergency calls only. What a hell is going on I tried to read on it and almost flashed it with like LineageOS but then I find out bootloader is locked and the company no longer unlock them. If you can please let me know what a hell is going on. Is it like EU only phone or something? Why it's not connecting to LTE and no working with one of the 4 Major US telcos.
Thanks, guys, please help cause I am clueless with this Huawei brand.

AT&T uses bands 2, 4, 5, 12, and 17; the L21 has 1, 3, 5, 8, 38, 39, 40, 41. At best you would have band 5 for 4G, and that's only if you were in an area with band 5 coverage. AT&T 3G uses 850 and 1900, but the L21 only has 850.
T-mobile uses 2, 4, 5, 12, 66, and 71 for 4G, and 1900 and 1700/2100 for 3G.
An L23 would work with either carrier as it has 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 28, and 41, as well as all the 3G bands for both carriers. I have an L23 on Cricket (AT&T) and it works great.
