Rooting it with another ROM will unlock it for GSM use?
I dont have a Verizon contract... there's any way to unlock this phone?
I travel a lot to Brasil, there's only GSM networks there... any way to use them?
The only way to unlock the phone is to obtain an unlock code from Verizon or — if you're lucky — from one of the eBay/etc code sellers.
There is no workaround. The lock resides in the radio module, and unlocking is done by the stock firmware.

Hi
Is it possible to change the esn ??? I have two droid 2 global, one I manage to unlock with unlock code from ebay and for the other one I can't find a code. So if I change the esn on the second one (to be the same as the unlocked D2G) I hope I can use the same unlock code. I have no intentions to use them on Verizon or any U.S. carriers.So is it possible to change the esn?
The code is bound to the IMEI, not the ESN, as far as I recall.
And you can't use two phones with the same IMEI on a single carrier.

Try some third party unlocking websites. I used cellunlocker.net and it worked. its about $25.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I tried them - they returned my money - "unable to unlock at present time".
Which service did you use?
I was trying to unlock the Atrix 2 too . Which service were you trying ? Has anyone unlocked the atrix yet? I think i saw a video showing the unlock procedure from one of the service providers.
will one of these from the link not work?

i have unlocked sim on other devices by calling att and having them do it.
someone reported att refusing to unlock their A2 though.
you will need to call and tell them that you are travelling and need to sim unlock the phone. they will do a customer check (see if you're activity with att warrants allowing you to get the unlock code).
doesn't hurt to try
i doubt 3rd party unlocking places will be able to do it at this point.
Hello everyone:
I am a chinese,I bought a Trophy(Verizon) from Ebay,but it is locking,and I can not use the GSM function.
The I contact sellers on Ebay who can unlock the HTC phone,but they said my phone's IMEI can not be found from htc unlock code's datebase ,so they can't find the unlock code.
It mean the IMEI was Not Found On Database or it is Not Available.
Have any methods can unlock my phone's GSM network?
I hope someone can give me a help.
Best regards.
TKS.
Does the phone not have the option to toggle to GSM mode, or does it just not work? It should be under Settings -> Cellular.
I don't think the Verizon Trophy is even SIM-locked in the first place. At least, not in the usual sense. However, I have heard a rumor that they block it from being used on the USA GSM carriers, T-Mobile (US) and AT&T.
If you're able to take it to a Verizon store, they can probably remove any unlocks on the device. They may or may not be willing to do so for free, but they probably *can*.
Out of curiosity, why in the world buy a predominantly CDMA phone (even if it has a GSM mode in addition) if you're a GSM user? There are plenty of GSM Windows Phones, most of which are arguably better designs too. Verizon users around here hate that the Trophy is the only phone available to them, and I truly sympathize.
when I select the GSM model and put in a SIM card of CMCC,It display:
This SIM card can only be used on specific networks.Contact your customer service center for the unlock code.
So it's should be a GSM network lock.
You only have 2 options first you need to find the way to bring it back to Verizon to unlock the phone but if you're in China right now that probably impossible.
Now the second option is to buy the unlock code on eBay. I have no idea why you phone couldn't unlock did you ask the right seller? Because HTC Trophy actually have 2 version one is European and the other one is US (CDMA and GSM) You may need to try other sellers if you can find them.
I have HTC Trophy Verizon and my brother also has one he went back home and unlock the phone before left US and it works fine with GSM/UMT.
Is there a way to unlock the D2G to like t-mobile or att?
First you have to call Verizon and ask for the SIM unlock code. they will only give you it if you have been with them for 6 months and your account is in good standing order (no late payments etc).
Then root your phone.
Then use the Band unlock. More information can be found here
Hey jbroderick,
I want to confirm something, you also need to be in the US where you can get US verizon signal to properly sim unlock, this is true? if it is, there is any way to do this outside the US?
Thanks dude!
You do not have to be in the USA for the unlock code to be entered. You do not have to be on a cellular or WiFi network.
I think there is no way to unlock s2g if you don`t have verizon code, problem is you are outside usa.
Hey Luisfebear,
Other chilean told me that on sim-unlock.net he bought a working code to unlock in Chile the D2G. The only problem is that are 3 "different" phones por the D2G. I married with the "Motorola A956" since it's the Model that appears on the label next to the IMEI.
If you se some feedback of the D2G on sim-unlock.net, you'll see that people from other countries succesfully unlock the phone.
I'll post later for my experience.
Hi guys I want to unlock my phone so I can use a different network SIM.
My network provider EE unlock team said they can't get it at the moment and they will contact the manufacturer.
I've asked Motorola and they don't have any codes to give.
Does anyone have an easy way to unlock Motorola Moto G 5g plus?
You can try flashing an unlocked version of the firmware, i think i took mine from motostockrom.
It voids warranty tho
I got one from Cricket Wireless, and I have the same issue. No one could unlock it.
I also faced the same problem EE Network Unlock. You can get the network to unlock supported from here https://unlockplan.com/
I got a good solution from there.
