Hey everyone!
I have seen very few threads on this phone, and i hope you all will be able to help!
i have the metropcs varient of this phone. The company says it is able to be unlocked but it wont unless i connect it to their network [i do not have $ to start services with them] but i would like to unlock the phone.
The app "unlock device" keeps telling me to reboot and try again, and putting a new sim card in does not allow me to put in a code.
any thoughts? thank you in advanced for the help!
i would like to unlock my phone too. help XDA.
Same ??
Any thoughts, threads, it anything on this phone, the Alcatel 5054n? Metro pcs gave me the network unlock pin but there's nowhere to enter it. My phone is rooted but I can't get the bootloader unlocked... PLEASE HELP
Hello, sorry for my English
I used the RegionLock Away application to free my Alcatel Fierce XL 5054n Brand device from the PCS metro company
This application uses root to work, and to date I have been occupying my phone for 4 months with a different chip from the company Movistar (Mexico)

Dear fellows,
I got a Alcatel One Touch Evolve 5020T (T-mobile) from US as a gift.
When I put my India's SIM card into it, it says network locked.
On searching XDA (and other) forums, I learnt that the SIM slot is locked. In MTK Engineering mode, the option of SIM ME lock (unlock) is grayed out.
I tried to use SP Flash tools using the scatter file but I get an error - Secure Baseband. Need auth file. I dont know where to get this auth file from.
I tried using Alcatel One Touch Upgrade S 2.8.0 software as well. I used the model number - 5020. But the moment I connect my switched-off phone, it says - "Read terminal information failed, Unplug device, remove battery and try again..." [Screenshot attached]
Questions:
1. Is there anyway to reset the firmware...so that the SIM ME Lock menu can re-appear?
2. I have the NCK code with me (from a trustable source), is there anyway to directly push it to the phone and unlock it?
3. Are there any special tools available to directly unlock this phone?
I am not an expert at this, but have working knowledge of linux/android.
Any possible answers?

Not sure why you never got any responses. I know this is about 18 months late but hopefully it will help someone else with similar question on Alcatel OT 5020T.
1. Is there anyway to reset the firmware...so that the SIM ME Lock menu can re-appear? You can get to the SIM ME lock menu by dialing *#*#3646633#*#*
2. I have the NCK code with me (from a trustable source), is there anyway to directly push it to the phone and unlock it? No. You can´t "push" unlock codes into a phone. It has to be processed (the phone has to "ask" for an unlock code first).
3. Are there any special tools available to directly unlock this phone? Yes. GB-Key, SigmaKey and other dongles can DIRECTLY unlock the 5020 and a wide variety of Alcatel models without any unlock codes. But those tools are quite expensive and only make sense if you are providing a commercial unlock service.

I researched a lot about this issue and sent plenty of emails to unlocking site and only this one unlockcode4u.com reply to me the following:
Quote:
"Unless your phone prompts for the unlock code when powered on with a non-accepted SIM card, there is no known way to enter the unlock code in the phone."
I also found out that if your LG phone IMEI begins by 99000, the phone won't ask for the unlocking code in most cases, even if you enter the common LG sequence (2945#*740#)
I tried a local unlocking shop too and they could not help me neither.
This is quite frustrating
Any help would be appreciate
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.
So... i got this from Craigslist and i didnt check if it asked for an unlock code since every other phone i got used worked pretty much flawlesly... but thing is, the previous owner somehow managed to put a wrong sim unlock code a lot of times and now i cant unlock it to use it on another carrier, its locked to Cricket.
Any idea on how to fix this if it can be fixed at all? Cricket LG Stylo H634, wanna use it in Mexico.
Hi,
So this device I bought from facebook marketplace and was told it's fully unlocked.
After inserting a different SIM, the device works for a minute, then shows an error saying it's not a verizon SIM and disconnects from the network.
I contacted Verizon and they're telling me that it's unlocked but I guess something in the firmware that prevents me from using the phone. I did a factory reset, now the phone setup won't finish without a Verizon SIM card. it stays stuck on that screen.
Is there a custom firmware that I flush this phone with and be able to use the phone?
Please advise.
Thanks.
Verizon A02S unlocked but not able to use on other networks. Need help unlocking
Hi. You have to remove headwind mdm thanks
