[Completed] Verizon LG G Vista; does it already have an unlocked SIM slot?

My friend recently got this phone but had never used it. I have an account with Ting and the imei checked out just fine, they said with one of their SIM cards it would work on their network no problem. I have 2 questions;
1.since no SIM has been activated on this phone with any carrier dies that have any bearing in it being kicked out not?
2. A brand new sim card came in the phone, again never activated. Is there a reason why that SIM card I'd number count just be attached to my thing account? I thought that they just tore that number in and connect it to the appropriate account n I'm confused in why what logo is on it matters.
Thank you in advance for any help or insight that gets sent my way and I appreciate everyone's patience if my questions seem silly or dumb. I am legit confuse though,

Unfortunately there is not much about your exact device on xda.
I found this thread: [Q] LG G Vista - Root Request by ClassickWORLD.
If you register on xda, you can post in this thread or in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Hopefully you will get better help there :fingers-crossed:

Can't find a direct answer to your question.
So best place to ask is the Sprint G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
BTW ... it's only possible if both networks are using the same frequencies/bands, so that the mobile network chip in your device is able to connect to the other mobile network carrier.

[Completed] Help with a locked Note 4

I purchased a T-mobile Note 4 via OfferUp and I didn't check phone properly. Purchasing in a parking lot, I made sure it powered up and checked to make sure it was a Note 4, but guy looked honorable. I KNOW BIG MISTAKE. Got home and found a lens on back camera cracked. And, didn't know to put my T-mobile SIM card in to check before purchasing. Called to change my T-mobile to put on my account and the IMEI# was bad & T-mobile had it locked, T-mobile said that the phone was never paid for and therefor locked. Ordered a Net10 SIM and a months service. When I got Net10 SIM, went to my account to activate. Wouldn't work! Took to a boost store and guy checked and said it wouldn't unlock. Do I have any options or do I loose my $300 and call it a monster learning experience. Its running on 5.0.1 Lollipop!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
Unfortunally i really don't know if there is a different solution in these situations, when a phone is locked by the carrier in most of cases there isn't much to do... I don't say it's impossible but yeah you need an expert here.
Maybe you can find a better help here on the general forum of the note 4 > T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!

[Completed] Carrier unlock asap please help

I recently spent money that I REALLY didn't have on a Sprint Flex 2 because a friend of mine's friend claimed to be in a bind and needed urgent help and I knew my boyfriend had been wanting this phone and honestly, I'd been wanting his! However, after getting home with it I'd noticed it had a Google Account lock so I paid someone to bypass it, which was easy and worked like a charm... Then, I realized that it was Sprint and my bf has an att sim! I I contacted that same guy and for some reason his program just decided it wouldnt work with my computer anymore so wasted more money, I then found another guy and he said to go to swappa.com and make sure it wasnt blacklisted which it was obvious its not beacuse if my bf would habe sprint itd be working perfectly. I paid this new guy to get a new IMEI code for it and he hasnt answered me back and honestly i dont see how he can claim it to b blacklisted, but anyway i need a carrier unlock done like YESTERDAY!!! PLEASE HELP!!

Need urgent help with unlocking S7

Hi all ! Ok so my gf is about to go abroad in a few days and we'd like to have her Samsung S7 Duos ( SM-G930FD i think) so it would work in UAE. We've tried using the various unlocking website and even went to a store close to us to have it unlocked to no avail so I was thinking if maybe someone here can point me to a few guides so I can do it myself. I am well aware of the risks and am fairly confident in my ability to learn. Now the problem is that with the dual sim phone she has the 2nd sim slot comes openline by default (contract phone for 2 years) but it cannot connect to any mobile data network except that of the first sim's carrier. Yes i know we could have this unlocked by the carrier but she stopped paying her bill last month coz of the crappy service and honestly it's a waste of money if we do that. Anyway, can someone point me/ give me some tips as to how I go about doing this? Will rooting and flashing firmware solve this? Or do I use other softwares like Odin etc etc? Would really appreciate any help I could get. Thank you for reading.
