Yes I had mine sim unlocked 2nd week from a xda user. They don't charge but I was happy to donate to them as well. I'll link the thread here once I find it again. Was originally posted in a OnePlus thread.

Thanks. Although I'm not sure what the benefit for me would be since I'm on T-Mobile. But this process would have been easier than what I had to go through to unlock my 6t so I could run the international firmware
Is there anyone that can Sim unlock my t-mobile LG V60 thinQ device.what does it usually cost to Sim unlock this device permanently.If anyone can unlock this device or has a link you could leave for I could get my t-mobile LG V60 thinQ permanently Sim unlock I would be greatly appreciated.

I used the T-Mobile unlock app the day the phone arrived.
I think it really depends on the rep you get.
Back when I get the Note 9 on T-Mobile (2 yr bill credits), after a week I tried using the Unlock App as I was travelling internationally.
It didn't work so I had to call into T-Mobile customer service.
The rep was able to unlock my phone and my wife's phone even though it was only on the network for about a week.

Congrats. Glad to hear it. May I ask if you were postpaid or prepaid?
I'm thinning of buying it from T-Mobile and adding them to unlock it (well, having my uncle do it since I don't live in the US) but it'd be easier for me with prepaid (I figure topping it off with a hundred dollars in refills is comparable to two months of the cheapest postpaid plan and no contract to cancel). Plus the online unlocking service I saw was 85 bucks and I don't know how reliable those are.

I have postpaid. It all really comes down to the person that you get when you call T-Mobile you can get somebody that won't do it are you get somebody to do it no problem I've never had my phone paid off any of my phones and I've had a lot of phones probably 15 to 20 different phones that I bought through T-Mobile on payments and I've always had them all unlocked within a month if you need any help or anything you can send me a message all right take care good luck my friend.

I noticed on one of my V60s it would not unlock. The one that didn't unlock is a LG 2nd year replacement for my old G8. Can't figure out why.
so who is unlocking the LGV60s?
Anybody able to unlock their device for use with a different carrier?
I picked up a T-mobile branded one off swappa and am using on Simple Mobile. Calls and text work out of the box but I can't send or receive pictures.
I figured it might be something to do with it being locked to tmo. I tried the unlock in settings and failed. I called tmo and they say they can't unlock it without a tmo account.
Any suggestions?
Edit - solved. I had a friend with an account call them. Just say you're traveling and need it unlocked, they'll do it.
Still didn't solve my picture sending problem, taking suggestions on that.
Edit again - solved the MMS problem. It won't send with wifi calling on. I turned that off and am good. Surprised I haven't seen anybody else asking about this. I can't be the only one?

Is unlocking the SIM like this irreversible? Just picked up an Optimus G and getting ready to do the SIM unlock. However, still trying to decide if I want to keep this phone and would rather not invalidate the warranty or anything until I'm sure.

I spent $1.86 USD here took about 20-30 minutes
So I went the international chat section of the Sprint website. I got in touch with a rep who looked into my account.
They said that the sim unlock need to be requested as I've unlocked my phone once in 12 months. My previous phone was an HTC One, which I called for unlocking in 6/2013.
Anyways, the request was put in..
I got an email back today stating that it wasn't approved.
This email is intended to confirm that your request to unlock your device has been received by our Back Office group and has been reviewed.
Unfortunately at this time we are unable to complete your device unlock request. The policy only allows one unlock within a 12 calendar month period. Since a device has already been unlocked during the past 12 months, no additional unlocks may be processed.

How would I go about unlocking the sim since I need to use it on my trip to Asia? Without calling Sprint.

You can't, Sprint has to do it. It makes no sense to me to deny unlocking because you decided to get a new phone. I would e-mail [email protected] and [email protected] and tell them what's going on. If that doesn't get it solved, nothing will.
So the really sucks. If you buy a Sprint phone at full price, then want to unlock it, they won't if you already have asked them to unlock a phone within a year.... That's bs

Not sure if that will work. It might? I think either you have to be a Sprint Customer for a certain amount of time or you have to have the phone on your account for a certain amount of time.

I've used Swiftunlock several times and the last time I used it on my TMO S5 it was 19.99. I couldn't find it for a better price from someone trust worthy. It was not swift, however.
Many people have had TMO unlock their device. You have to call and catch the right person and be very persuasive.

You can always simply call T-Mobile and ask for the unlock code. If they question the reason why, you can state that your going to vacations over sea's or etc.. and want to use the phone with the local service provider.
Usually if your with T-Mobile for a long period of years they will simply give you the unlock code with no questions asked upon request. That's usually what I do when I get a new phone from T-Mobile, call them and ask them for the unlock code. Never had a problem.
I haven't used any 3rd party service , but its good to know if in case someone asks.

I'm that guy that ignored every warning sign of a straight up scam. I bought a sprint LG G3 on the premis that cdmaflashsoftware.com could flash it to work on Bluegrass cellular. His only payment option was moneygram (I am aware that I'm a dumbass so spare me the insults). Well now I'm $350 dollars into this phone and still am not sure if it can even be done. Can someone shed some light on this subject.

Have you tried Lg flash tool to get back to Sprint? I would think if your efs is still good you should be able to flash sprint tot.
Don't know anything about your personal situation but if you can't tot back I'm afraid you're screwed.
Have you tried this?..http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...tore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042/post54912191
First of all thank you for your help. It is completely stock and is still under sprint. The only reason I'm pissed at this guy is because I bought the phone only because he said he could flash it. Nothing has been done to the phone at this point. He just took my payment and now ignores me. Again, don't know what I'm doing but can follow instructions well. Lol

Sent from my SCH-I545L using XDA Free mobile app
Just took a quick look at their web site. It looks like Bluegrass runs on a GSM network, unlike Sprint's CDMA. BUT, the Sprint G3 is a world phone, and has a GSM radio and SIM slot. If you can get Sprint to unlock it for you (and since you're not under contract they probably will), you could then insert a Bluegrass SIM card and see if it works. If not, it will still work on Sprint, and you can resell it.
Actually Bluegrass is cdma also. I did try putting some card in though, no service.

It will not worked because the sim slot is locked for Sprint only. The only way to get a Sprint phone sim unlocked is to call Sprint and ask them very nicely. They may or may not do it for you, I have heard the phone has to be activated on a Sprint account for 90 days first. The only thing you can do is call Sprint customer service and try to ask them nicely. Good luck.
Yes I've done that I think. They gave me the unlock code or msl code. When I go to change settings by dialing ##data#, it asks for a 6 digit code to edit. and when I put in the msl code, it allows me to make the changes.
