D2G Unlock at VZW Support

I bought a D2G at eBay. I love it but I live in Hungary and I can't unlock it. Can anybody unlock it for me in USA by VZW Support if I pay every cost of unlocking (and plus money for helping)? It has clean ESN. I can send it to USA if it's required.
Please somebody help me!

You can buy a TurboSim off ebay item #200539432676 and it should work.

TurboSIM
Thank you for your advice, but I read it has few problems with D2G, so I want to unlock it by VZW.

send it back to d seller to unlock it

I tried it
I asked the seller about that but she refused it.

The device has to be active on a Verizon account that's in good standing. And the line it's unlocked on won't be able to unlock another phone for 10 monhts. I don't think you'll get too many takers on your request. TurboSim is probably your best bet?

Unfortunately
Unfortunately, the situation is bad. But I really pay extra cost for unlocking so if someone can help me to take extra cash, please send PM me.
I think I will order a TurboSIM, it's very cheap so I can try it.
Anyway, I got from UnlockCarrier.com 3 codes. 2 codes of them are 8-digit and they're absolutely wrong. The third one is 10-digit and the phone is thinking so much if I type it, but then the phone refuses it. Has someone got experience about 10-digit code?

The code should be 8 digits.

did her posting indicated the phone is unlock n can be use world wide?
or it is locked phone?
ask her to call on ur behalf to get the unlock code, provide her with d IMEI n IMEID

I can help, pm me..

Thanks guys
haroldz123: I ask her but she refused it again but she said she can refund my money if I send back the phone.
wirelessprofessional: I sent a PM!

"A hope? A chance!"
Hi everybody,
wirelessprofessional can't help me but he tried it (Thanks for it).
But the seller wrote a message to me on eBay if I want to send back the phone she refund my money. I was thinking so much on this offer, and I want to accept it but she wrote another message. In message she wrote that she may can help because she started to work part-time at VZW.

Can someone tell me, would it work if a verizon smartphone user got the esn for the phone, activated it on their line online for matthewKER while he still has the phone, then call verizon from some land line or still active phone and ask them to unlock the phone for a valid reason, then get the code, give it to matthewKER, he unlocks it, then reconnect your own smartphone back to your verizon line? I assume he wouldn't get service or be able to call or anything given that the phone is in hungary, though if it can that's the only risk I see in doing this.

Very interesting...
This situation is very, very interesting... After I sent a video to wirelessprofessional about my bad codes to refund his and my money (because he got same wrong codes), he sent an e-mail. He wrote in the e-mail that he activated my phone on his account and he got an unlock code from VZW. And there is surprise: this code doesn't work, too.
But it isn't end of the story... The seller is also trying to take an unlock code from VZW (she said she works part-time at VZW now) and she wrote me different things than wirelessprofessional. She wrote that she need the pre-installed SIM-card number to unlock method, and today she wrote that the assistant at VZW Global Support wanted to do this method step-by-step with her, but the phone is in Hungary so she ask the assistant how does she do it at home, but assistant said her that call him again if she can use the phone while she speaking on the other phone.
My advice if you want to buy D2G outside USA: DON'T TRY TO BUY LOCKED D2G. To buy an unlocked one with bad ESN is better choice than buy a locked one with clean ESN...
ben7337: Thanks for your post, I hope someone can unlock my phone finally.

same problem, who can help pm please

Santiss, I had a similar problem and ended up selling the phone and buying and unlocked one. I een got the unlock code straight fro ma Verizon Wireless representative and it still didn't work. I initially thought it was because I had to be within reach of the Verizon network in order for the code to work but that was not the case; the code simply didn't work.
My advice? Just get rid of the phone (sell it, return it...) and get one that's already unlocked. The unlock codes are apparently a matter of luck and not a safe bet.

I have unlocked two D2Gs myself online. I know of 3 others that were unlocked using the same site. I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS SITE! I just have used them myself for several different phone models and they always work perfectly.
One of my D2Gs is a very recent new model, the other one was an early phone, both unlocked fine.
I strongly suggest that people try this site before giving up.
mobileunlockstoredotcom
I think it was around the $10USD mark the last time I looked. I got my codes within an hour.
Both my D2Gs are used worldwide on GSM networks and are behaving well. I just did the edit of the radio image that should remove the band locks when I am next in the US in a couple of weeks, that should be interesting!

[Q] Unlocking the MyTouch 4G Slide

I just tried to get an unlock code from T-Mobile but it wouldn't work since I had just gotten an unlock code for my G2x recently and I have to wait 90 days. I bought both the G2x and MyTouch 4G Slide out of contract for full price for use on FlexPay but I still couldn't convince them to give me the code. What are my options? Anyone know of any sites where I can buy an unlock code for this phone? I travel a lot and I really need this phone to be unlocked asap.

Try this site: http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/
I've never used it but it looks pretty reliable

Typed in my IMEI to get checked and no luck. No unlock code available on that site either. I guess HTC just hasn't released it yet and it'll take some time. Thanks though.

Uh-oh. I might hold off on purchase if unlock codes aren't available yet....

I just came across these guys
http://unlockthatphone.com/
Not sure how legit they are though.
http://forums.crackberry.com/unlock...unlockthatphone-com-its-nice-meet-you-540727/ - Their post there seems to be legit..
Anyone willing to give it a go?

Okay so I actually got two honest replies (I think) when I asked two websites about the unlock code. HTCimeiUnlock.com and UnlockThatPhone.com both told me that HTC updates their database every 3-4 weeks with new unlock codes and until then no one can unlock it and both of them will inform me once the unlock is available. My phone must have been manufactured super recently and the wait shouldn't be too long til the unlock code is available so when I know I'll update back.

Fair enough mate. Do report back on how you go.
This effectively means if I purchase this phone now, it will be of not much use to me... I'll just keep looking for a good deal.

Okay so even better news. I tried the T-Mobile live support chat again and for some reason this time the rep has put in my request for an unlock code so hopefully I'll just get it emailed from T-Mobile for free! I'll let you guys know how long it takes. This time I did make it a point to mention that I purchased the phone for full price from a T-Mobile store, not on contract pricing. But I feel like I just got lucky with the another T-Mobile rep.

I like the initiative mate. Hope it works out for ya. If you don't mind me asking, what details did they ask you for before lodging your request for an unlock code?
I'm wondering because if I import this phone (Sydney, Australia), would I be able to get them to lodge a request for me over the internet via live chat, without giving away the fact that I'm overseas?
Cheers

You'll need to have a T-Mobile account because they ask all your account details. Soon enough all these unlocking websites will have the codes available to unlock the phones so by the time you'll get one down to Australia it won't even be a problem. I just got the email from T-Mobile so now I can unlock mine! Good luck to you.

Nice one mate.
I took the dive......................... *heartbeat speeds up* I bought the device off E-Bay US... USPS should have a package for me next week..can't wait. Here's hoping the unlock codes are released by then. If not, I'll just have to use the phone's other countless features..

Let us know how this goes. I'm going to want to unlock as soon as I take a trip out of the US

Great! My brother will bring one back from the us so i'm glad i can use it

Unlocking worked with the ebay link. I can use the phone right now but internet (not) yet. I set the APN right but no luck yet.
(update: probably some APN auth setting that was wrong. Internet connection works over 3g).

CJ, I'm in Australia also, i wanted to know if you got the phone and managed to unlock it.
I was'nt sure if the phone would work here.
how did it all go?

is there no way to this with root and gfree script? worked on the mytouch 4g non-slide
[edit]
it seems using gfree is a bad idea, it should be ported to a certain phone.
G2 and MyTouch 4G are supported, others not.
Using an unlock service on ebay worked for me

Hi Mate,
Yes, I did get the phone. I bought it off ebay. It took 18 days. If you do purchase it off ebay, make sure you don't use USPS - they are slow as.
After I received the phone, I got it unlocked via ebay ($20) and then bought an Optus Sim. I can happily report that it is working 100%, no issues what so ever.
Great device. No complaints so far.

SIM unlock

I searched General and didn't find anything other than, "you gotta pay like 30$ and they'll email you the code.'
On my Infuse, there was an unlock within three days of release.
What's the status for us? There's got to be a free software unlock that we can do by now.

hi
you can unlock your phone using codes. you can get the codes from Mobileunlocksolutions.com. while unlocking your phone through codes you need only your imei and a foregin sim to get it unlocked.

yeah that's more expensive than the other site and they dont have the SR listed.

Did anyone try the galaxy s unlock app from the market? That app worked for my att s2. I think ill go try out.
Edit: guess that doesn't work. Says I have a busy box problem. When I get home from work I'll try the manual hex way and see what I can get done there.

I tried Cellunlocker.net and they email me back telling me, unable to find code.
I too have contacted at&t and I got the same response, phone locked to network.
I have also tryed the Hex manual way and no luck.
Does anyone had any success unlocking SGH-I727?

Yeah I tried both the unlockers from the market as well as looking for the bml3 file for the hex but apparently it's hidden in a different file as the bml3 doesn't seem to exist on our phone.

Guys, any update on the unlock, XDA-style? I tried several unlock code providers and am still waiting for a code from them. It is painfully delayed. Did any developer start working on some software unlock for Skyrocket? I understand lesser demand on this phone but if we can get some work going on on the unlock front, that had be awesome!
I will be the first one to donate btw! $28 is too much if it is severely delayed.

yeah, i'd love to have my skyrocket unlocked, but still waiting to see who will get it done for us.

Still nothing apparently. this is nuts. i unlocked my Infuse last year the day after i got it...and i got it on launch day!

Mine's unlocked but when I put in *#7465685# it still say Network Lock, Network Subset Lock, SP Lock, CP Lock.

Anyone figured out how to unlock it without having to purchase a code yet?

+1 here, waiting for someone dev figure out a way to get the unlock code XDA style... I had to purchase a code for my SGS 2 off eBay just now to unlock it, but it costs only 99 cents. Not sure why the unlock code for the SkyRocket cost so much, I mean, $23 is the lowest eBay price last check...

I'm convinced that the online sites are run as side projects by network operator or manufacturer device support employees (ie AT&T or Samsung) who can unlock using the IMEI.
I can confirm that the lock code for this phone is located in a completely different location. Also, I am willing to throw a lot of time at this if someone can point me to the furthest progress made or point me to someone who knows what's going on.

I just orderd a t-mobile sim off ebay for $1 and plan on calling att for a unlock code as I've been a good customer forever. I can dump my partitions before and after the unlock code to try and narrow down where it is stored.

just called att and they claim that the skyrocket is exclusive to att and therefor don't need to provide me a unlock code. So much for that.

I have unlocked several phones through T-Mobile customer service. I simply tell them I am travelling oversees and need to use a GSM sim card from an oversees provider. Usually I would receive a response within a few days, but have seen 24 hour turnaround times before. The official name for the code is "subsidy unlock code" -at least at ATT they called it that. I think the only limitation is that TMOUS will only unlock 1 phone within a 90 day period per phone line or something like that. Good luck.

I tried to get an HTC One S code from Cellunlocker.net and it initially came back "not found" as they said its too new so try back a week later. I waited a week and a half and the code came back and it worked. Film it and you can get it for free sometimes!

Usually tell them you are traveling abroad and need it unlocked to use another sim card while you are over there. I have had several phones unlocked that way.
I have also just said "I need my phone unlocked for personal reasons" and generally they do not follow up with a why.

Telus is now offering the Blue/gray. Not sure if that would be any easier though.

Yeah, I work for T-Mobile in tech care and we don't care what the reason is really. You can do it for any reason at all as long as your account is eligible. I don't remember all the requirements but the major ones are these:
active account for at least 40 days (might be 45)
not delinquent, nothing past due on your account
not received another subsidy unlock code in the last 90 days for that phone line
There are other things they will check also, but those are the major points we look at. It's real easy though, we just ask for your IMEI and and email address and fill out an electronic form that goes to a department that gets sim unlock codes from the manufacturers. You will usually get an email with unlock code and instructions within 48 hours.

Anyone performing software SIM unlocks?

Not via manufacture unlock code but rather software unlock. My Note 8 is still being paid off so AT&T won't give me the unlock code and I'm headed to Germany next week. I'd rather not go the eBay route.

Don't know about the software unlock on this phone, but I got my unlock code from a vendor that I used multiple times for $25. Unlocked mine a couple of days ago.

I ended up using a guy off eBay, he seemed reputable and had his WhatsApp contact info in the eBay ad so that made it easier to reach out to him. Cost me $13.99 and my AT&T Note 8 is fully SIM unlocked.. problem is I tried to activate it on Sprint and since it apparently still has a balance on it they couldn't add it to inventory.. quite the pain in the ass.

Does AT&T unlock the phone for free after 14 days of ownership?
I had bought my s8 from Best Buy and completed the unlock form on the at&t site 15 days after purchase and got the unlock code within 2 days.
11 days to go for my Note 8, i will let you know

As far as I know, you have to pay off the phone first before they will unlock it. I unlocked my previous AT&T phone that way.

Yeah, I was lucky enough to get my Note8 on September 12th. I put in my unlock request at around 10am today and got my unlock code at 1pm. So they were at least super quick doing it.
Here's a bit of a tip:
If you don't have another carrier sim to put in after you get your unlock code you can just dial this #7465625*638*# and it will ask you for the Network Code. Type in the digits AT&T gave you and it'll say unlocked once successfully entered.

If you have a SIM card from another provider put in your phone and it will ask you for the unlock code.
