LG G8X AT&T - how to get rid of simlock. Help needed - LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers

Hello guys.
I bought an LG G8X with a broken screen and back for $ 40. I repaired it by myself. It turned out to be FRP locked, but I solved this problem.
The second problem is the simlock on this phone. It is currently locked to AT&T USA network. I tried unlocking it on the official AT&T website, but without luck. They told me that "The device you want to unlock is active on another AT&T account".
What should i do?
I was thinking about buying unlocking code on one of the websites dealing with this. Is it good idea? Do you know which website is good with such case?
Thank you in advance for helping me

ATT website request unlock free

Good day guys, just to let you know that in Movical they were able to unlock the G8X from At&t, mine has financed status but with clean IMEI and when I tried on EBAY and other unlocking sites they told me that the code was not found in their database but at last in Movical they were able to do it, they use the remote method to unlock it

Perhaps after a hard reset or firmware, the sim lock will return, but I will not say for sure.

[Q] Can anyone help unlocking Lumia 920?

I am currently with T-mobile and accidentally bought a "locked" Lumia 920 to AT&T from ebay.
Because I was short on money I even bought one with cracked screen but I cannot use it with T-mobile...
I visited AT&T, T-mobile store and they won't unlock it and since I am not a AT&T customer, I can't ask them either.
I tried downloading multiple softwares and other variety of things but seems no success...
Is there anyone who can generate unlock code for me? That would be really appreciated.
I am facing similar problem. At&t said the customer to whom the phone(imei) is linked can ask for the unlock code no one else. And my seller is such a jerk he simply ignored my requests to help me. As the servers are down no third party code provider is in position to help.

Search "CellUnlock" with Google.
Sent from My Nokia Lumia 920.
There are a host of stores online that will sell you an unlock code for 50 USD or less. You can also call AT&T and tell them you bought for your daughter or son or even yourself to use while you are overseas for month. You need it unlocked so you can use it on a network over there. They will give you a code as long as the phone is not on a contract.
Unlock code for AT&T devices are pretty cheap in fleabay. Paid just around US$3.50. Worth it to get out of hassle and unlock easily.
Rogers device are around $15 online.

Unlocking for other companies

Hi, does unlocking my cellphone to make it work with all companies lock it in my country? My cellphone is from Chile, I talk with Claro there. I am in Canada and I want to unlock it to Bell or any other companies. If I had it unlocked for Bell, would it work back home?
Ps. if you know of any unlocking services would you please tell me. Thanks :good:

Yes once it is unlocked it will work with any GSM carrier in the world. I am assuming you are talking about a GSM phone here.
Besides unlocking services, usually your home carrier will give you the unlock code for free and the instructions of where to enter in that code in your phone to unlock it, if you tell them you need to unlock it because you are traveling abroad. Usually they want you to have owned the phone for a while (like 6 months for some carriers) before they give you the code though. No harm in trying to ask the customer care.
I asked my home carrier for a unlocking code, they said they would contact the cellphone manufacturer and get it in about 3 weeks, which is too long. Does anyone know of another faster option? Thanks... If I can do it by myself that would be excellent too
Hey thanks for the great information but you know what, I couldn't find my device there... it's a Moto G!
Do you know of other good sites to unlock? Thanks!

I don't use iPhone, sorry, I use Moto G
alright, well i dont know which carrier my cellphone is locked to since i bought it to a friend who bought it from another friend in Chile and in chile the phones are unlocked to all chilean companies...anyways I contacted motorola and they said they could provide the subsidy code in 72 hours... ill let you know
hey, Motorola actually called me and gave me 2 subsidy codes and none worked....!!!! i actually double checked the IMEI number and they said it was correct, so I guess i'll have to use one of them unlock websites.... does anyone knows if eBay is safe to do that?
many thanks =)

Root Sim Unlock (h901) help!

I recently bought this amazing phone on ebay(H901), and I'm trying to sim unlock it, the phone is not blacklisted, or financed, but It cannot be unlocked since its not in T-mobile database(even when it is branded tmobile phone with all the tmobile bloated apps), since T-mobile or LG cannot unlock it I was looking for a Root-unlocking solution for this since I dont want to start the process of returning the phone at this time of the year and I already paid for my country customs fees to get the phone here.
Is there any way to sim unlock the LG h901 using root mods? may rooting and deleting t-mobile unlock device app do the job?
Thanks, I will appreciate your answers
Do you have some Solution??

No I haven't find a solution to it, I'm currently living in Japan, and I'm using this piece of art as a media player only because I can't get it unlocked online nor a tmobile sim card to use it.

Hello, I buy a lg V10 H901 on ebay I use it for several months without any worries I live in France so I used the temporary unlocking of the application "device unlock" but since yesterday impossible to use it the temporary unlocking no longer works and thus the phone and block I am therefore not t-mobile client is there a software way to unlock it?
??
No solution for unlocking ?
No there is no known method other than using the app. You may be able to purchase an unlock and seller would submit your imei for processing on Tmobile server I would assume.

Have you tired googling it? From what i know once its paid off fully you can request a sim unlock from tmobile.
a lot of site offers deblocking but are they reliable? I can not pay on t-mobile because I live in France and buy on ebay HK

Yeah I mean usually those services are pretty cheap like 30 or lower to remote unlock the phone. Worth a shot just look for reviews of those sites first too.
