Hello,
I am very sorry to write this post again, but noone answered last time.
I have an Alcatel One Touch 990, which got into bootloop so I had to wipe cache,data and stuff, so I accidentaly wiped something wrong and phone became SIM LOCKED. It requires Network key. I am new into this forum and I could not find an answer to this question:
Is it possible to unlock phone via software+usb cable or via some code generator?
I can give you IMEI code and other info if someone has an generator already and is willing to generate it for me.
Many thanks.

Just today i put my office sim card in my phone and now my unlock code doesnt work.
Its saying Wrong code entered.
I have put my sim card now but again my unlock code doesnt work.
Please help me.
Will hard reset solve my problem...
The HD2 comes with an inherent problem and that is the lock code.
It sometimes will not unlock and the only way I have found around it is to perform a hard reset. This will wipe your phone to factory and you will loose you content.
Sorry about the bad news, hope someone else can help you
thank god hard reset solved the problem...
Hey Guys,
Hopefully someone can help me out since I can't seem to find answers anywhere to my problem. I got an unlock code from T-Mobile but when I put a foreign sim into the phone is says "invalid sim, 0 attempts remain". I got the phone on craigslist so I'm guessing whoever had it before me tried unlocking it with the wrong code too many times. I have the right code now, how do I reset the attempts? I can't believe that the phone is hard locked and there isn't anything I can do about it. It's pretty frustrating so any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!!!
really???? no one knows anything about this issue?
So people here know how to put different operating systems on phones but no one knows if it is possible to reset the sim unlock counter?????
the phone is hard locked and (certainly in most cases) can now only be unlocked by using a hardware unlocker. (for most phones, you get three attempts via the keypad, and a further 10 via a hardware connection normally.)
thanks for the reply! what exactly does hardware unlocking mean? would i still need to use the code given to me by t-mobile?
speak to a phone shop (or better yet speak to t mobile first)
have you tried to restore the phone to factory(not a hard reset). I would try going to Tmobiles website and try to update the rom...

^is for US phones I just did mine today because the guy that put android on it removed the unlock screen and I was unable to unlock the phone. And no one on here was able to answer any questions for me so don't feel bad.
Got it unlocked last night! turns out the sim card i was using was locked. i tried a different one and it let me key in the code. thanks for all the help!
now that the phone is unlocked would doing a hard reset lock it back up?

good stuff. No, flashing / hard resets will not ever lock the phone now.
Hello everyone, this is my first post here and I am in need of desperate help.
I have looked everywhere I could but (my bad) I am not into all this stuff at all. I am not familiar with ROMs Kernels etc. I just follow tutorials blindly.
I have a galaxy s2 bought which I bought in the UK. It was locked on 3 network. Later I moved to another country where I got it unlocked for about $35 but that still showed signs of 3 network (The 3 startup logo, 3 bookmarks in web browser etc), however the phone was unlocked now and picked up any network I used.
I noticed the phone stopped giving me any kind of updates and it was on andriod 2.0.1.
I looked up the internet on how to install latest updates for my phone.
Found out this guide and went thorough all the process: goo.gl/yJSga8
Everything went fine but when the phone booted up, it asked me to enter "sim network unlock pin" and now all networks are inaccessible.
I am pretty much stuck at this point. Found guides telling to root the phone and then installing apps like Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock by Chainfire.
I have tried it once and was near to kill my phone. (The yellow triangle appeared at startup and got stuck there. No boot.) I just re-flashed the firmware by following the first guide again and now the phone is like before asking for sim network unlock pin.
I have attached the screenshot of the info that you might need.
I am willing to pay $15 via PayPal if anyone can help me out to fix this issue. (I am a bit hesitant using the rooting method as I an afraid I might kill my phone. But if that's the only choice then I will go with it)
Please ignore if I sound really stupid as I really don't know about this stuff. Please ask me any details that I may have missed out.
Thank you very much!

If you don't want to root, then you'll have to call your carrier and ask for an unlock code. Mine has that service at least, don't know about all carriers.
As far as solving your problem goes if your carrier won't help out... The thing that works for a lot of members here is to root, then use galaxsim unlock app, by xda member spocky12. Search for the thread.
That app requires root access... To do that, easy way is to flash philz kernel from recovery mode. Search up philz kernel thread here on xda and read up how to flash it

Hello hopper, thanks for the response.
I took your first suggestion but instead of calling the company itself I used an online service unlockliberty.com.
They charged me $20 via PayPal and almost instantly sent a code to my email address.
I entered the code on the phone but it gave me "Network unlock request unsuccessful" error.
Contacted support and they sent me a defreeze code and instructed me to restart, enter the defreeze code instead of the unlock code and then it will say "Network unlock request unsuccessful" and after that enter the unlock code. I did the steps and it worked like a charm! my phone is now unlocked.
I really recommend their services if you are in a similar situation.
Thanks alot!
Hello guys
I am using Alcatel One Touch 990 and after doing some stupid reset via clockwork mode, my phone became sim locked again.
I am not sure if I am writing this on a right place, but is there a possible way to unlock this model via some software or code generator for free, or all those things are fake and money wasting?
Thanks for your time.
My friend asked if i could help with his phone. He recently got a new sim card and found out his phone is locked.
Everything on his phone is the way it came out of the factory, nothing has been change... So, for all info on the hardware just google 'acer liquid z520'.
While searching for a way to unlock it, i stumbled upon these sites: http://www.tntts.com/2016/07/open-line-acer-liquid-z520.html & https://www.phcorner.net/threads/230676/
Is this really a way you can unlock the phone? I never saw this kind of way, I thought you needed to unlock bootloader and/or flash some new rom...
Tried searching for a similar thread, did not find anything, sorry if i missed something.
If this is not a legit way to unlock this phone, please point me in the right direction. He would like to avoid paying 20$ to unlock it and waiting for another year for the contract to end is also not an option.
Thanks for the help.
