Found this today at Motorola's website while looking at the news on the Z2 Force.
I hope its not a mistake but it seems like the unlocked Moto Z2 Play is actually going to be able to be used on Verizon and Sprint and not just the GSM Networks like the first gen Z Play!
Regretting getting the Verizon version about now...

Other what is said about CMDA bands is there a link or any for sure is true.
I was just about to check the site again but looks like the server admin screwed up something and it says "access denied". Oops.
But yeah the link says carrier compatibility for the unlocked version includes Verizon.
Site is back up. Going to the carrier compatibility page here under the Moto z2 Play it says:
Available in an unlocked version for major U.S. carriers like Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile.

Did the unlocked version end up working with Verizon?
The shipment is stuck in Memphis TN. Their projection of the 18th of August was changed to the 28th but I don't think I will get it today with the delay.

Just received it. Found out my old SIM wouldn't fit because the phone requires a nano SIM. Went to Verizon and they installed the new SIM and activated it. No problems and I am now in the process of configuring it.

Did you ask a question? It would appear this belongs in the Question and Answer forum.
Anyway, the T-Mobile One supports every band at&t does plus AWS. Unlocked and with the right APN, it will work flawlessly on at&t - in fact the T-Mobile software has almost no lag compared to at&t.
There's your answer.

I have an unlocked T-Mobile HTC One, and it works perfect with AT&T SIM. I can get both LTE and HSPA+. That actually makes T-Mobile version a much better buy since I'm getting ALL the bands for both carriers, much less bloatware, and WiFi calling when using T-Mobile SIM.
Couldn't be happier.

Thanks for the tip on that app. It still didn't fix the problem, but I figured out what my problem was. I was only able to get up to HSPA+ speeds since the APN settings for LTE would not work. When I put the LTE APN settings in, it would say there was a data connection issue and the settings were not correct.
After doing some additional research, I found that since the IMEI of the T-Mobile version is not in AT&T's database of LTE capable phones, my data provisioning on my account was locked in at only receiving HSPA+ speeds. My last phone was a T-Mobile HTC One S, which wasn't LTE capable, so it made no difference what the data provisioning was on my account. To make a long story short, I took my wife's HTC One X that she was not using any longer and had the AT&T phone rep put that phone on my account since it's capable of LTE and the IMEI is obviously in their catalog of devices.
After that, the settings worked immediately for my HTC One.
The more and more I look for help from AT&T, the more I realize that the company doesn't have many employees that are skilled in the way of assisting outside devices. Since T-Mobile welcomes customers to bring their AT&T devices to their network, I can only assume they would have figured this out a whole lot quicker.

Their policy on this seems to be very arbitrary. I purchased mine at Wal-Mart and paid outright for it, and then submitted the necessary info immediately to their SIM Unlock department. Here's the response I received from them a week later:
T-Mobile Sim Unlock Request
Sim Unlock Reference: ---------

Thank you for taking the time to contact T-Mobile. We have received your SIM Unlock Request. Unfortunately, we are unable to process your request at this time. The account must meet the following criteria:
1. 60 days of active usage on device
2. Must have $50.01 or more in accumulative refills since activation.
Please submit a new SIM Unlock Request once the subscriber has met the Eligibility criteria.
Thank You,

How did you get it unlocked? You would have to wait 40 days to unlock it by T-Mobile. Did you find a site that can get it unlocked? I heard that most of the sites don't have the codes yet for T-Mobile version of HTC One.
I tried this myself. Used this site for unlocking my HTC One got the code within 30 minutes.
I unlocked my AT&T G2. Received the code in 15 minutes.
$1.70 (DOLLAR AND SEVENTY CENTS) only

Update: Thanks to "paffinity" for the confirmation. It works and is genuine. This is the email address "[email protected]" of the guy who sent's these unlock codes, he replied to my email yesterday confirming that he can unlock LG G2 AT&T and T-mobile phones. Not sure about Verizon you have to ask him only.
Thanks to"amorek13" confirmed working for t-mobile as well.
I was pretty sure that all Verizon LTE phones are SIM unlocked out of the box. At least my Droid DNA was, and so was my previous Droid Razr.

Tried it on mine (AT&T) and it worked.
I've never done this before and there were no instructions, just the unlock codes, but I found instructions elsewhere.
Dial: 2945#*model number# (800 in case of AT&T G2)
Tap "Network Lock" button.
Enter SIM unlock code. Should tell you successfully unlocked (or something similar).
Wait for it to reboot. Mine got stuck at a blue screen for some reason (thought I bricked it somehow), but rebooting fixed it.

I put a T-mo SIM in my Verizon G2 and it worked... just not very well. Not sure if that was a reflection of T-Mo service in my area though.
The "?" SIM symbol stayed on and it often said Roaming (R) over the service bars. But I was able to use both voice and data up to HSPA+.
I do not see where this can work on a Verizon VS980 phone, or am I missing something????
I'm in Poland with my VZW G2. Don't worry, no sim unlocking is needed. Just popped out the Verizon sim and popped a local one in and everything works great after putting in the correct APN settings. So much cheaper than paying Verizon for global data...

That is normal, you have to go in and manually set the APN to your carrier in the settings.
I did set the APN manually but I couldn't get that ? SIM icon to go away.

I'm currently with Cricket Wireless and every time I try to update I phone I receive an error message stating, "error: update check interrupted".
I have come to find out that you cannot get the update through Cricket Wireless.
Does anyone know if the Samsung booths within Best Buy stores will receive the update? I went in about two weeks ago and they claimed to not yet received it.
Are there any U.S. carriers besides AT&T that you can get the update from OTA? If I were to go with AT&T pay as you go would I receive the update?
Thanks.
I was able to get the update using an old SIM card for Net10 which I was not using. I am currently with T-Mobile though I am considering to switch to Cricket. Just a piece of info.

to get lollipop you MUST have an AT&T or an AT&T MVNO sim card. Because the phone has to connect to ATT servers. And it won't anyone but ATT to connect. Also I'm not trying be rude but this has been covered many times already
I didn't see any threads and I did a bit of searching first but besides the point.
How do you determine of a SIM is ATT MVNO?

Yes, cricket is on the ATT network but I've been informed by a few sources that Cricket is also their own network and won't receive updates. Whatever reason that is...
But I've heard of people updating on other carriers using ATT towers. I'm probably going to boot Cricket down the road anyway. Not getting updates is garbage.

I know T-Mobile used a different primary LTE band so the G850a may not work with them.
Just tried to update with an inactive Straight Talk SIM on an AT&T LG G2 and it said the device was up to date. The LG G2 update was rolled out with the Alpha update so it should be available. Can't test with the ST SIM in my phone; it won't fit.
G850A works great with T-Mobile. Much faster LTE than with AT&T. No lollipop update is availability through T-Mobile though. So I had to use my old MET10 SIM card to get the update. Now I'm on lollipop with T-Mobile.

From what I've seen, and experienced on other phone, there is very good chance you will never get LTE speeds. Definitely not band 71.

Wow that's going to suck I guess I'm going to have to return it. The phone's going to be delivered to me this Wednesday. So the bands are a hardware issue not software correct? I thought by buying an international version would be better for rooting. Oh well back it will go. Thanks for the info.
I have got LTE speeds and band 71 on previous Oneplus unlocked phones, so I dont know what the previous poster is talking about. My advice would be pop your sim in and see for yourself before you draw any conclusions.

So maybe that will be the difference since at the moment the pro 7t is only sold over seas. Idk. I'd still wait to test before jumping to conclusions about LTE connectivity and speed and such.

Hi, thanks when I received the phone I just inserted sim card from Samsung Note 8 into the phone and it worked. Didn't have to call to activate which was pretty easy. Thanks again for the info.

I did the same when I originally bought a OnePlus 7 Pro -- I took the SIM out of my LG V10 to get it working. I was just covering the bases when I had T-Mobile send me a new SIM card after returning the OnePlus 7 Pro and before getting the OnePlus 7T Pro (keep in mind that SIM cards get updated/upgraded and I wanted the latest).
What kind of speed are you getting on Tmobile without band 71?
is there a version of the device unlocked worldwide? or just versions locked to carier?

You should email LG website. As right now it's only for carries.

You can. Make sure you do your homework. Each LG V60 carriers have different bands.

but the devices are not attached to the carrier for a period of time?
I've heard if folks that have used twitter to ask for day 1 permanent unlock and have received it. Even when not fully paid off.
TMO phone BTW

This is the response i received a few hours ago :
My whole reason for asking for unlocked was to Unlock the Bootloader. This would technically be my 1st LG I've ever own since July 2010 when I got my very 1st Android through Sprint Called the HTC EVO. I havent looked to another OS since. Feel in love with Development from the start, currently on Moto G7 aka River Android Dev Team and just left the Google Pixel 4 4XL Dev Group. Bunch of immature lil kids.... Anyway, is there no possibility of Unlocking the BootLoader in the V60? no way to install or flash Magisk for ROOT? No TWRP? I cant even imagine....[emoji23]
PS
They were listed as international versions on Amazon a week before launch....

Not surprised in the slightest that this is the case now and probably will get more prominent going forward. I'm guessing the money is in the carriers and not in selling unlocked phones direct to consumers.

Carrier Unlock isnt an issue, Just went through it on my Pixel 4XL. Took me (7) devices but once i found the right rep at TMO i was able to get them to unlock it, a) Same day i received it, b) wasnt even active on my account yet c)100% of Device was owed. d):laugh:
I could toggle oem unlock out of the box, cant enter bootloader though... Just fastbootd

Be careful! The carrier-locked LG phones only show carrier-specific radio bands in their spec sheets. This seems improbable in a modern phone but I'm not taking any chances. If the specs are right, a T-Mobile phone would work great at home but be dead while traveling.
