Hi,
Is there any way to unlock a prepaid Verizon LG V60 while abroad ?
The phone is not asking for a network unlock code
so inserting your overseas sim card, it doesn't say any thing? and when trying to make a call, it doesn't ask for unlock code?
maybe try factory reset and hope the tmobile verizon app appears again... i believe it's a software lock. and once there is a way to flash other roms, then that might help.

Usually only the AT&T version is the one that asks for a code. Other will have to be remotely unlocked.
ok cos i think my tmobile one asked for unlock code, but my friend did it for me, so not sure. if only we could flash new unlocked rom from another region.

May I know if the verizon unlocked your phone? (While abroad and not connected on verizon network), If yes, did it follow the 60days unlock policy? Thanks in advance for your answer.

Seen a lot of offers for IMEI unlock code for jetstream around the net. Anyone tried that? fake?
Having mine shipped tomm to the middle east...already obtained the IMEI and had it unlocked by one of those sites you mentioned...will update next week when I receive it
I got mine sent to me by a friend in the states, it was bought without a plan and came locked to at&t, I called them and explained I live in Australia but they said they couldn't unlock it. I was able to get an unlock code and made a video about it here http://youtu.be/a8eN0roRxHQ

Thank you everybody for feedback!
Great News - will try unlocking my HTC JetStream which will use a Middle East carrier data SIM & will update - thanks for the hint !!!
Perfectly unlocked to used with any SIM, I paid 25$ to HTCIMEIUNLOCK, waited 15 minutes, got the unlocking code, entered it and ...WOW !!! SIM unlocked.

Buying from outside the USA
I saw these people will sell to international customers. I do not know anything about them, though.
I have ordered mine from AT&T through a friend.

Hm Interesting.
I got my hands on a HTC jetstream test machine for their engineers and it didn't come locked. Had AT&T Logos on it as well. Could just be because it was for the Taiwan Engineers so they didn't lock it. Quite interesting.
Can anyone verified if Jetstream gets 3G/3.5G speed on US T-Mobile sim card with AWS frequency? Or just edge? Someone from XDA posted the Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcZlljP62Ew&feature=youtu.be) video saying it works on Orange network, but I realized the device was only getting "edge".

Hi,
Was wondering if the sim unlock will cause a change in the root or if the root could interfere with the sim unlock or if any future updates will revert the sim unlock to sim lock?
Wanted to be sure before unlocking the sim.

I unlocked my Jetstream a couple of months ago. I rooted the jetstream last week and didn't see any issues. Although now I am bricked because of an unrelated reason. But you won't see any problems with unlocking your SIM.

Rooted first but now cannot sim unlock
Hello Everyone,
I have a Jetstream ATT which I rooted with developer d00mlord's stuff. Recently I decided to unlock it from the ATT network. The unlock code says unlock successful, but after rebooting it comes back up with the same locked screen. This will happen over and over again. This is happening with an ATT sim card too, so that I cannot use the data features with anything but wifi. The company who provided the unlock code tells me it may be due to the tablet having been rooted, and that I will need to factory reset everything. So, I am hoping that someone might be able to tell me what I should do. I have noticed that this thread addresses the sim unlock first and then a root afterwards, but not the other way around. I cannot seem to find a thread that is more relevant. This is my first posting and I am brand n00b so thank you very much for even reading this over.
when you say locked screen..what exactly do you mean?
for other sims to work you need to add a proper APN (maybe even for at&t after the unlocking). try googling: "the name of your provider + APN settings"
and add it to the settings>wireless>mobile networks
I have reviewed similar threads for a few days but have not found any answers. The simple question I have is in the title:
Can you unlock the ATT Atrix without an unlock code.
However the situation is a bit more complicated and ill explain.
I have been traveling the past few months and was in Costa Rica for a month. I decided to purchase a local SIM so I could use my phone without paying ridiculous ATT roaming charges. I inserted the SIM and it was locked, unaware of the network lock I inserted my personal code thinking that may be it. No luck and returned to my old ATT SIM. At this point it still worked but a few days passed and I tried again, still no avail so I contacted ATT. It just so happened the 6 month mark was coming up from the original purchase date of my phone so they would provide the unlock code in 4 days time. I waited and finally received, after inserting the code it did not work and I contacted ATT back to assure they provided the proper code as they had to send me a replacement phone a few months prior due to my original Atrix crapping out. They checked it out and determined it was correct but it never worked. I finally inserted my original ATT SIM back into the phone and it also requested network unlock code. Now I am back in the states and even with the original ATT SIM it still requests for the network unlock code. I tried unlocking and flashing with CM7 beta and STILL requests unlock code. So basically the phone is useless for network data but will work fine as a mini tablet i suppose connected to WIFI.
So with that explanation does anyone have any idea on bypassing this or removing this entirely, not even to use overseas but just on the ATT network!
Additionally
ATT provided me with another Atrix to alleviate my troubles so im not entirely phoneless. However I would like to sell one of these and possibly purchase the GS2 0_o
I have contacted 3 cell phone unlocking sites explaining the situation and only one has responded but not with any answers.
HELP!
if you got a new phone, is it still asking for a network unlock code?
No. Its working fine, but I still have this perfectly good working phone I would rather use and sell the brand new one. Unless I cant get rid of this unlock problem I suppose Ill sell it as is. Any takers?
Hi, I talk to att once when i want to unlock my atrix and they told me if the phone is more than six months old the give you the unlock code for free.
so for the atrix if that is your phone you can ask att for your code since august 21.
just call att customer support.
hope this help.
try a diff sim card with data plan and see if it still asks for code
or try flashing a custom rom
I suppose I was not clear in the OP. ATT DID provide this code for me. I did flash a custom rom already.
As far as using a different SIM card I tried to use a second SIM that ATT provided and still nothing.
I am assuming this is a very unique situation and probably wont find any answers unless someone has successfully unlocked the phone by flashing some special ROM.
Flashing a ROM of any kind will never sim-unlock your phone.... ever. period.
The only way to resolve this is through AT&T. The only way to sim-unlock is with the code it requests.... must have proper code. That is the only way. So, I would talk to AT&T about it, in person, at a local store.
I unlocked the inspire 4G simple by rooting and flashing a custom rom didnt ask for network password after that it worked on tmobile
With edge service no. 3g or 4g different bands between tmobile and att

Just the info I was looking for. Basically the phone is boned in that case. Spent a good with with ATT advanced tech support and motorola to no avail.
What I do want to know is WHERE this information is stored out of curiosity. It seems the modding community would have tinkered with some hacks to remove the sim lock at some point.

Tried to screen shot it but it wont allow in the screen. The request comes as soon as I turn the phone on. If I dismiss it I can use the phone I just wont have cellular access.
Ok so I am reposting and not editing as I feel this deserves a bump.
I got my new Atrix unlock code from ATT today and tried it on the new Atrix I received and that one ALSO will not unlock.
Is there ANY ATT Atrix sim unlocked and if so how did you go about doing it? I have only found one thread and no response via PM.
How to SIM unlock Atrix!
I have read both your post and I believe you used a ATT sim card that was not in use or a GO phone Sim card. Am I correct so far? To sim unlock you have to insert a non ATT sim card!! No go phone sim card or a non active att sim!
Call one of your friends and borrow a Verizon sim or Tmobile sim. You only have 5 tries to do this. So as for your first Atrix I believe it is already locked permanently to ATT. Dont ruin your second Atrix.

Well I found that if you push #073887* in the dialer it will actually prompt you for the unlock code. I tried this with NO sim in at first and that is when it said it was unsuccessful. However late last night I inserted my ATT SIM back in and tried again just for ****s. Entered in #073887* and typed the unlock code and viola, it worked. Interesting information for anyone who wants to unlock there Atrix WITHOUT another carriers SIM!
But back to my original issue. I wouldn't mind if the original atrix was locked to ATT, at least I would still be able to use it. The problem is that it wont work with ANY SIM. My thoughts is that it is a glitch and locked the phone to... nothing?
To make matters worse I emailed cellunlocker.net explained the issue and they said they thought if they requested a carrier unlock code it would work. Paid the 20 and 10 minutes later they sent me the same unlock code ATT had provided. Now the hassle of obtaining a refund.
are you selling the phone?

Yea. Both.
you have to use a *different* sim card than your regular carrier uses (ex - I'm on AT&T, so i used a Boost Mobile Sim to unlock my Atrix) You cannot use YOUR sim to sim-unlock.

Yes you can, by the method I explained in my previous post. It works!
There may be some confusion. The one im referring to (the original ATRIX) will not unlock with an ATT sim, a TMOB sim, a verizon SIM, or even a Costa Rican SIM. NO matter WHAT the SIM is in the "original" phone it always prompts me for a SIM unlock password. Like I said I believe it to be a glitch, intending to lock it to the ATT SIM but in reality it locked it to NO SIM.
So to restate.
YES you can unlock an ATT Atrix with only an ATT SIM in the phone using the method I explained. ( I did it with the phone in my hand right now)
and
NO my original Atrix will not unlock regardless of SIM installed or method.
i will send you a p.m with my offer
Just out of curiousity did you ever set up the sim card lock feature in the location and security settings. It will ask you for the unlock code every time you turn your phone on...shot in the dark here....

Does anyone know of a location to bring my AT&T Jetstream tablet into in the NYC & NNJ areato get it unlocked. Please help.
what do you want to unlock? SIM, bootloader, ???
If you plan to travel and need to change the SIM, call AT&T customer service they will give you the SIM unlock code.
If you want to unlock the bootloader and change the Kernel and/or ROM go to htcdev.com and unlock.

I need to borrow a Sim card from someone so I can unlock the Sim. I was told that will prompt me to enter a code to unlock it. Will ANY Sim work? Even if it is a Nextel Sim card?

Any sim will work-inserting it will prompt you for a code. But to get the code, you need to get the unlock code from either AT&T or use online sim unlock sites.
Regarding the borrow part, you can just use your regular mobile's sim to unlock it. However I think there was a thread that had something about some changes with the data and stuff with AT&T happening on removing the sim. Read it up and make sure to get AT&T's help once you change your sim back to their's after whatever use you intend to do.

What I would be hoping for now that I have gotten my HTC Jetstream Tablet SIM Unlocked, is that CLEAR comes out with SIM Cards. CLEAR has Modems, Hotspots, and USB Hotspots. They should come out with SIM Cards now since there are a LOT more devices that can use them for just the reason of why people get the Mobile Hotspots.
Hi everyone,
Everytime I open the phone I'm asked to enter a Sim network unlock PIN.
At first I talked with my carrier, which tried to give me few PINs to unlock the network lock, but none of them worked.
After reading a while on the internet (and also as it says on the box) I suspected that this is about the Region Lock samsung implemented in it's new devices.
I bought my device in Europe (and well, I don't live in Europe).
I talked with the shop I bought the device from just to make sure the device is not sim locked, and they claim that they indeed sell only sim free devices, so I turned to Samsung.
After talking with Samsung in the country I bought the device, I was given an unlock PIN, but unfortunately, it doesn't work.
Do you have any idea what could it possibly be?
Maybe I tried too many times wrong PINs and the network is locked now? Don't know already....
P.S.
All the phone features works fine (if I go out of the screen with the PIN request), except for mobile internet and calls of course.
Images attached below.
They claim wrong that my friend is sim locked & you will need to find out what carrier its locked to, that carrier will have specific codes.
At least that is my understanding.

Thanks, but based on what info are you so sure?
I talked with the shop again and they INSIST their devices are sim free.
I need to have some kind of proof to argue that.
And also, I'd like to hear more opinions please...
BUMP - any ideas please?
Have the shop were you bought it from replace the phone or you can call the carrier that the phone is lock to and request the unlock code. It should be very easy to determine that by firmware build number (For example: G925P is Sprint)

Just confirmed it's a G925F... so it's not sim locked, as the shop stated.
This phone is simlocked to a network. You need to find out what network it is locked to then get a unlock code.
Once you enter an unlock code it will be unlocked to all network....

Why can't it be? that is a model number for UK handset but it doesn't mean anything else. All UK and europe (also middle east) models are G925F , some are network locked and some are not.
Accept it and do something about it. Ask for refund or ask the seller to get you unlock code.

Your phone is regionally locked., which means you should unlock it with a Europian SIM card before using in an other country.

What you need to do is check with the shop where the phone came from? Which country the phone was bought. Once you know that you can try different sims (they are freely available from providers or ask your friends). The unlock code is a combination of Phone IMEI number and the network so you need that information.
Let me know how you get on...
Dear all,
Is there a real service that unlocks these?
Heard these devices are not unlockable. Is that true? (Two encryption locks, UICC lock, or something)

I used unlockpolice.com to unlock my phone. It cost me $180.00 and they had to connect to the phone with a USB redirector app. First time they read some information from it, second time was to unlock it. They did not change the IMEI number, and it is sim unlocked. Am using it with AT&T after flashing the U1 firmware (removed sprint bloat)
I did not try to use the phone back on Sprint, honestly no reason too for me.
