[Q] T-Mobile SIM Unlock - Can't manually enter SIM Unlock Code - "Use Unlock app"
Turns out I still don't have coverage at home with T-Mobile's network. I purchased my Z3 D6616 outright (full price). However, when I insert a SIM from another carrier, I get this message* instead of the usual prompt to enter a SIM unlock PIN. I guess they only want you to use their new unlock tool, as a way to prevent 3rd party unlocks.
Am I really stuck using T-Mobile for 2 months because this phone cannot be unlocked manually with a PIN, like most phones? Is there any workaround to bring up the menu to enter the unlock code?
*This device can be remotely unlocked if eligible. Please use the Device Unlock application to unlock the device. . ."
I have the same issue. Unfortunately I was not able to find a solution yet.
I've read somewhere that the Simlockunlockapp.apk is missing from the firmware (this is the default app used by Android to display the network unlocking popup).

Yeah, I'm betting they removed the ability to do so in favor of their new "Device Unlock" app, that way people cannot unlock via a 3rd party. I'm bummed because I already paid for an unlock code, but have no way of entering it! :crying:
I believe legally they have to unlock. Try calling customer support.

I hope you are not a "current" T-Mobile user, because if you are they do it after 45 days of activation for free.
Do you find a solution? maybe if we root the phone and install another rom we can have the ability to input the network code, another thing I did was refill my t-mobile account to a total of $100 USD to make me eligible to use the "unlock app"

Hello there!
I've recently bought 2 ZTE Cymbal T's from the US and I was hoping to unlock them and give them to my grandparents to use them here in Sweden. I know that this is CDMA phone but I did some research and found out that it supports a few GSM bands that I can use here. I've ordered an unlocking code in hopes to unlock it. The problem is when I follow the unlocking process instruction, the "The unlocking menu does not show up. I've tried many codes like. ###3854#xxxxxxxx# with the "xxxxxxxxx" being the unlocking code, ###825*09# , *983*8284# to get the unlocking menu up so i can enter the unlocking code. I've even downloaded a third party app phone dialer just to get some basic codes working like checking the IMEI with *#06#. Is there anyway that I can bring the "unlocking menu" up even by any chance with rooting the phone.
Thank you.
The phone is unlocked it G970U1 model. After factory reset my sim card works perfectly fine during the initial setup screen calling works and even shows LTE on top but as soon as I pass the setup screen LTE goes away and when I try to call it shows me error " CALL NOT SENT" also when I click on the button to enable mobile data it shows me error "Security policy prevents use of mobile data" I really want to know what security is causing this issue also I have changed rom with different versions I get same error with everyone. How do I fix this issue what security policy is causing this issue ? Please help.
Phone locked to Consumer Cellular
If the phone is locked to Consumer Cellular, it will only work with their sim card. You will need to get it network unlocked to use it on any other network.

You know how unlock s10e cc locked?
As i can understand, it's not sp-lock. It's knox lock, as payjoy, rac etc.
As far as I know, you would need an unlock from the carrier. You might try to Google for network unlock codes, but I'm not sure how reputable dinner if those sites are.
If it is locked to CC anyone knows a way to unlock this as I don't find any service for this online. Z3x also only supports SPR , TMO and ATT also I tried changing CSC from XAA to others using chimera but it gives me success message but nothing actually changes.
what about when you get an unlock code and it says unlock successful and this still happens?
I have tried many sites and they cannot get it I need to do it remotely also any answers
