Wipe all datas via CWM recovery or inser a sim of other carrier on your phone and then insert your sim in the phone

I got the 'STRING: NOT FOUND' error on method one, so I moved to ADB Guide method and successfully unlocked it.

If you unlock the phone, it will still work with the original SIM card.
One possible reason that the other T-Mobile SIM didn't work is that it might not have been a newer 4G-capable SIM card, or the contacts became dirty ( they can easily be cleaned with a pencil eraser).

Hello guys
I would like to ask how to unlock this Android device? Already tried GalaxSim Unlock in Playstore and it says that it is already unlocked.. But when I try to use a sim from another network my tab does not recognize the sim.. It says in the notification that I need to insert a sim to use data network
Thanks
I have a Samsung GT - s3570. The problem is, when i insert a SIM card , the phone requires an unlock code. I tried different SIM cards but still same problem ... The phone works without SIM,I want to make it work with SIM CARD.
My question is: how can unlock the phone without going to a service? Financial situation does not allow me to send it to a service .If anyone has any ideas, please help me .

Hey guys,
I have a situation with my HTC 10. I have unlocked bootloader, and S-off via sunshine and installed Viper10. I recently purchased network unlock codes from HTCUnlockingservice.com but it wouldn't work when I restarted the phone with Verizon sim, so I had to go back to stock T-Mobile RUU. But I have the same problem, when I insert a foreign sim it doesn't promp me to enter unlock codes, instead I have a sim-lock icon in my status bar. The TMobile Device unlock App doesn't work either (it used to say incompatible with Viper10, now it says "failure in processing request. please reboot device and try again").
Can someone help me find a way around it ??
Is there a *# sequence to prompt unlock code entry ?? something like the *#06# is ed for IMEI...
Please help, going crazy over here
thanks
