Hey guys I won a Xperia T and tried to get the phone unlocked but I believe I accidentally entered the wrong unlock code to many times, I wanted to know if rooting the phone and installing a Rom will solve the simlock problem?
the phone is from Rogers don't know if that's relevant information

Rooting won't solve that!
Maybe a custom Rom could!
You never know until you try!
Btw get a proper code again and unlock it!

Nope. The lock on the sim card is separate from anything the ROM does. You'll have to contact your service provider to get an unlock code. Assuming the phone is legitimately yours, it is a very simple and quick operation.
I got this device yesterday, but it's locked and i can't use it on my network. Is there any way to unlock this device without paying someone to do it for me? I know that Samsung Android devices are often very easy to unlock, but there is no much info about this one.

There is an app on playstore you can try that.... A user previously asked me abt the unlock and i searched on net for it but found nothing.... So you would need to pay bucks to network unlock
Why So Serious?!

Hey i got a s2 plus GT i1905, and i've been looking for unlocking methods for days (not that i'm dumb ) but its kind of special with that phone :
I've succefully done the root new method (no odin required) and i started with the galaxy S unlock (i got an unexplained error : error, not saved) and the other app from spocky who said "no unlocking method for that device".
Then I thought that i could do it manually, with the SERVICE MODE, but after DEBUG SCREEN, phone control is on position "7" and not "8" as all people are saying, AND "simulation" is leading to a "sw watchdog" that doesn"t help at all.
Therefore, i'm just in the same case as you. If you want any help on those methods maybe those could work for you.
Have a good day!
To understand .. that didnt work for you ?
Nope it didn't :/
I am still looking for another way to do it without paying ofc
Hope i'll find that
i unlocked it at GSM with 7$
It is kind of a good solution, I just did it too yesterday with a friend who got a wierd and universal Sim Card in purpose to unlock every type of phones
Hello all,
is there any possibility to unlock sim for free?
thank you.
How bypass TMobile Unlock App & get Prompt to enter Network Unlock Code / IMEI unlock
Can't seem get the phone to prompt for to Enter Network Unlock Code or IMEI unlock input anywhere after I put a different carrier sim or invalid sim. Is there anyway we can bypass the 3rd Party Tmo Unlock App or get the phone to bypass to enter the network unlock code? The phone is already Rooted running on various ROM such as Darthstalker, Resurrection and Dr, Ketan L2 and also Rooted Stock ROM, but noting seem to get the sim to prompt to enter network unlock. Try Build.Prop nothing there...so far. Try Deleting sys file, apk and other Efs nothing work.... Do I need to change or install a new Baseband/Radio/Modem?
Its built into the T-Mobile based roms if I'm not mistaken. If you flashed an international rom I would think it would go away and you could get the standard unlock prompt. Thats how others have done it in the past. They flashed MetroPCS roms and then unlocked and then flashed back. Make sure its safe to flash an international rom first (even if only temporary).
Has anyone been able to try this successfully?

Use "shortcut master lite" or paid version its up to you..from app store and launch the 7465625 codes press the ones that show perso <android_unlock_code it should bring up what u need..hope this helps someone. .?I have the core prime from metro..and it works to let me put in the code..only I don't have the code..☺I found out about this app when I had the S5..

It can't be avoided. You must unlock through the app. If you install a custom ROM, and are able to get an unlock prompt from the phone, the code you buy over the internet will not work. You are best to go through the unlocking tools which cost between 25-30 and will let you unlock it with the T-mobile app.
Dude here can unlock it for free. Search the forum. Title "Sim unlock - domestic and international"
Here's the link for that.

You DON"T need an Unlock code for these new Samsung Tmobile phones.
If the phone has been paid off for over 30 days then you can use the free "Tmobile Device Unlock" app to unlock
it and if the phone is STOCK and no one deleted the unlock app it should be in the app drawer of the phone.
If the "Device Unlock" app is not in the app drawer then you can simply download it from the playstore.
To unlock it with the unlock app it only takes one click.
The Device Unlock app will NOT ask for any codes at all it only asks if you want temporary or permanent unlock.
Here is the direct playstore link for the Tmobile Device Unlock app in case you need it.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....simlock&hl=en
Here is Tmobile's "Device Unlock" step by step instruction link in case you need it:
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-14011
I unlocked my Tmobile S6 Edge+ and when I go into Settings>Mobile networks and click on
"Network operators" then click "Search Now" it displays Tmobile, AT&T and Verizon as options.
P.s. If the Unlock Device app does NOT unlock your phone it means that it's either not paid off or it has been stolen. (Blacklisted)
Good luck,
Have a great day!
Or, you can use a third party unlocking service like UnlockRadar.com. Here is a link: https://www.unlockradar.com/service/t-mobile-usa-device-unlock-app-official-unlock

You are a lier
i try many times to contact you but never answer..
dont promisse something you wont do it...
Here's my question on this topic. I have flash numerous rims on my TMO note5 and the device unlock app just says it is incompatible and stops there. I know when I put completely stock note5 that I have used the unlock app and it successfully unlocked the phone. After I flashed the rims, the app does not work but I also loose unlock. Anyone else have this issue or know what to do to get unlock back with a custom rom?

Hey. I am sorry i cannot drop everything I am doing to perform a FREE service for you. gtfoh with that entitlement garbage. I do this for people when i'm at my computer when they write me. I go to school full time and hold a full time job. PAY SOMEONE to unlock your phone if you need immediate service. ffs you're the type of person that ruins free services for everyone.

Sadly this is true! The people who think they are entitled to everything and anything are ruining a lot of stuff for everyone else! A lot of devs just gave up and left because of people like this and crybabies who don't read first before doing something to their phone and then suddenly their incompetence is somehow the devs fault!? People need to grow up already.. Seriously!

I'm having the same issue with mine.
Im on a t mobile v10 and managed to get promted to enter a sim network unlock pin but i dont know how to actually get the network unlock code already tried asking the unlocking services ppl and they just refuse to belive you can actually get prompted to enter code.
I have a new ZTE z981 I have obtained a unlock code but how do I get the phone to prompt to enter the said code
Your wrong I got the T-mobile Galaxy S8 to ask for network unlock code
Hello everyone
Here's my problem and my idea:
I bought T-Mobile Galaxy S7 on ebay about a week ago (Stock QC1 firmware) and now I'm in need of sim unlock, which I can't, my device's unlock fails every time through Device Unlock app
I've searched through the web past two days and found no solution whatsoever. Every service is down for now and I cannot find any ways to unlock my phone.
So, here's what I thought: Maybe here's someone who can actually develop or figure out a solution for this since many solutions are available for S6/S6e and many other t mobile phones, but not for S7.
I can be tester and provide any files/dumps if needed or anything you guys ask.
I believe I'm not the only one with this problem and if we try hard enough, we can do this. Many people can benefit from this also, so let's be useful.
To mods, if you believe this is a wrong place to post this thread, please move it where it belongs.
Thanks to you all.
So your idea is just to look at other device solutions? [emoji1]

We probably wont see a direct unlock solution on these T-Mobile/MetroPCS QUALCOMM based Galaxys for some time. The older models you mentioned are Exynos based CPUs, they are being unlocked all the time. Unlock app or trusted server for imei unlock is our only solutions for now.

I stand with you. I think a bounty would be appropriate. I go loads of s7 and s7 edge to unlock. I may be at a huge loss if no unlock comes

I believe of we have alot of people working toward it something interesting would come out if it. Considering s8 is also there, more people Wil be requiring unlock. It's only a matter of time
Factory reset your phone, then try to use the device unlock. You can select temporary unlock or permanent unlock. Once you are done you will have a sim unlocked device.

Actually, MetroPCS s7 & s7e device unlock is available for $20 and Qualcomm S6 and below is also unlockable, there are many remote unlock services on ebay/various websites for those devices.
I've been* trying to unlock my S7 since April but no luck.
I know this issues with t-mobile Quallcomm Galaxys are about locked bootloader but that's the only thing I found out.
If someone can make bounty pool or something similar, I would gladly participate.

Yup. I'm on android 7.0. I could go back to 6.0.1 too. Why do you think this is a method to unlock? You need to connect to Tmobile database to unlock. Merely factory reset won't do anything. It's all in the cloud

I know, however when I had issues with the device unlock app a fresh install of the latest version worked and I was able to temporarily unlock for a month.
I did it just now after a factory reset, rooted and running no BS Rom...
T-mobile
I went through the same ordeal. I had to actually call t-mobile and get a representative to unlock it using the phone's IMEI number so it could be used on all carriers. Call them, I'm sure they will unlock it for you. That t-mobile unlock app doesn't do anything. Also under developer options, you need to check OEM unlock before you call t-mobile.
-Just my two cents, Bob

My device asks for active cellular connection in order to get temporary unlock, but I can't get carrier signal since phone is locked.... are you T-Mobile customer and were you using their sim card? I am not.

Called them maybe 10 times, even used their facebook page. Every single customer representative said phone is fully paid and nothing is blocking it but they can't help me because I'm not actual / original phone owner on their database, and person I purchased this phone from has no idea what unlock is, he's impossible to deal with. Maybe you have any tips for me?
Thank you everybody for taking your time and helping us.
Just a quick update, I just flashed latest G930U firmware and after SIM card insertion, phone asks for unlock code, which of course I have no idea what it is

I think you and @boobteg have a paid off devices eligible for unlock. What you need to know ow is that the device unlock app doesn't work on custom roms. It requires a stock rom. There are some of us who are not eligible for unlock.
Any progress?
none so far
Same Solution
Hi! im having the same problem, i cant unlock my s7 tmobile with device unlock app, every place i try say it that the service is down. II flashed with the g930U, now the smartphone ask me for an unlock code, there is anyway to find that "unlock code" to unlock the phone in this way? Or maybe installing an non stock rom is possible to unlock the phone?
