Carrier variant bootloaders are not unlockable.

LOL, no.

No. Carrier models are not bootloader unlockable. If you want an unlockable bootloader don't get a carrier model.

Both of you are partially incorrect, the VERIZON Variant is indeed permanently bootloader locked, however, the AT&T, T-Mobile and other carrier models can be bootloader unlocked after SIM unlock.

Locked Bootloader?

How do I know if I have a locked bootloader?
I read in wikipedia that the international version has an unlocked bootloader, is this true?
Does that mean that if I bought my phone out of the us (Mexico) I have an unlocked bootloader?
Cheers

Any x10 when bought new has a locked bootloader, it doesn't matter which country it came from, the bootloader will be locked, as sony ericsson had an agreement with the network carriers at the time it was released not to unlock the bootloader.

Is AT&T Optimus G carrier locked ?

Someone offered me an E970 bought from AT&T and he says it is unlocked.
Does it mean someone unlocked it ? it is permanently unlocked then ? or do I need to obtain some PIN to unlock it
again when a software update is done ?

If its unlocked it can work with any GSM network provider no need to obtain PIN to unlock it. It will stay unlocked even after updating.
And you want to clarify whether he is referring to carrier unlocked or bootloader unlocked. Big difference.

Moto E 2015 LTE bootloader unlock eligible after subsidy unlock

I got this phone that claimed it was unlocked. Went to Motorola's website to request bootloader unlock key. Request was ineligible. Checked the phone and noticed it was subsidy locked to AT&T. I called the seller and they provided me with a subsidy unlock code.
Will unlocking the subsidy allow the device to be eligible for bootloader unlock? I don't want to unlock the subsidy and find out the bootloader is permanently locked thus returning the phone problematic.
Thanks.

No. They are separate locks. The AT&T/Cricket and Verizon models cannot be officially bootloader unlocked.

Does Sunshine say it can do a carrier unlock? Because last I checked Sprint is CDMA, not GSM...
"Sprint SIM unlock features are considered experimental." If the M9 is like my other HTC phones, the command to s-on is "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" Note: this will brick a device that has any oddities that require s-off like mismatching aboot to firmware, etc. In other words, be sure you are full stock before running the command.

I'm aware that all phones support all of the bands they are just locked...and Sprint last I checked is one that Locks said bands and only "officially" supports CDMA
As I stated earlier, in the sunshine thread, jcase states Sprint carrier unlock is experimental and not guaranteed to work.
yeah i just spoke to them on chat. im going to try to ask for a refund

So you want a SIM unlock? Sunshine is the only method and per the Devs of it, it isn't guaranteed. "SIM unlock for sprint M9 is considered experimental."
Edit: only other way is to call Sprint and have them unlock the SIM. If it's not subsidized, they should have no issues unlocking the SIM.

Worked for me. Then again, I bought my HTC M9 outright from Sprint...
Edit: here is the stipulation on unlocking. Yes, the M9 is capable per this link. Please don't say carrier unlock doesn't work if they state it does and some of us had it happen quite easily...

Question Can I still unlock my bootloader?

So currently I have a moto g play locked to atnt and it has oem unlocking available (not greyed out) the thing is when i go to the bootloader unlocking site im denied (probably due to it being carrier exclusive) but if I were to unlock it by atnt (so that its not carrier exclusive) would i be approved? or is there a way to bypass the unlock code?
No

you can't modify a locked bootloader. So, you can't bypass any code inside the bootloader.
