Hi,
First of all I hope this has not been covered, I searched but found nothing.
I recently bought an unlocked Captivate from the US, I am in Australia. I put my sim in and all was good. Used it for about 4 weeks and then one day turned it on and said on the screen 'you have entered an incorrect unlock code, please contact service provider.'
Now I never entered a code or even had a chance to enter a code. Now it will not let me use any sim at all or even give me a chance to enter and unlock code, which I have obtained using the one click unlock found in this forum.
The phone is rooted but was working fine when rooted originally.
Can someone help? I can still use phone with wifi just not sim. I have tried a hard reset and that still has the same problem. I have tried flashing it back to an older rom, same deal.
What can I do? I can't even enter an unlock code to get it unlocked.
All sim based devices have a PUK code...contact your provider, ask for it and then try to unlock your phone till it ask for it...then you can reset it...that'd what I would do.

HELLO XDIANS......I BOUGHT A D2G FOR MYSELF FROM USA...IAM CURRENTLY IN INDIA.....i bought an unlock code for it which is not working at all.....
after some research i tried to unlock using this code-#073887*...but after this a sim unlock prompt came and after entering the valid unlock code there is a prompt saying like this-"PHONE IS SUBSIDY LOCKED,CONTACT SERVICE PROVIDER..EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY"
PLZ HELP ME WHAT SHUD I DO...PLZ PLZ
first of all, ill suggest u keep ur unlock code to urself.
in order to avoid subside lock, leave the phone on the error msg. without touching anything for apx 9-12 hrs. and ull b fine.
As far as I know, D2G is very dicey on unlock. It seems only the first lot (before Nov 2010) was unlock-able. I bought 2 and none of them can be unlocked with codes from non-verizon places.
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?

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,
Let me start by saying that I am a complete noob when it comes to android and I wanted to ask the experts here. I purchased this phone (The Huawei Inspira H867G) from tracphone, but cant find any information on unlocking this device anywhere.. not even on the Huawei site.. i called them and they are not aware of this device, I read on another forum that the T-Mobile U8686 is the same phone but rebranded.
I am trying to unlock the device, i have purchased the unlock code, but unlike other phones where you put in a foreign SIM and device aks for network unlock code, this phone just does not ask for the unlock code..
no matter what SIM i put it just says "SIM Locked" with a DISMISS button.
does any one know of a way to bypass this and still enter the unlock code? Or how i can modify some settings so that it asks for the unlock code?
I have googled and searched high and low for over a month and just found some clues but no real idea on how to start. From what I can tell I first have to root the phone and then unlock the bootloader, then find a ROM and install it somehow? Am I correct? Any ideas?
Hi,
I can't find a relevant thread for your device and issue, but you can ask for help here,

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
