[Solved] Can't unlock my phone with the code - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I was trying to unlock my xt1032 with cm 13 but it says that the code is invalid.
Movistar gives me that code, and when I noticed that was "invalid" I went to the movistar's office. They told me that probably I was unable to unlock it be cause I was rooted.
The question is, if I flash some Argentina stock firmware, will be able to unlock it?
Of course I'm from Argentina.
If that way won't work, how can a solve that?
Also, what happen when the 10 tries end? I think I used maybe 3 or 4
Thank you. Sorry if I had some mistakes in my text.

I installed a stock ROM and was able to unlock it. Thank you.

Tips/Help with Network/SIM Unlock Problem

EDIT: Nevermind, I called ATT to double check and they gave me a different code that worked. Sorry for the post.
I know this gets asked alot, but the information, situations, and answers out there are so many it is difficult to determine what needs to be done, so I am hoping someone can at least point me in the right direction.
I had unlocked my bootloader using htcdev, installed 4ext recovery, and flashed latest Cyanogenmod. I have been wanting to switch to T-mobile (I know about the possibility of not having 4g with that) and come to find out, entering the Network PUK code doesnt work in Cyanogen..
I gleaned that I needed to re-flash stock rom and then try to unlock, but I did this, and it still isnt accepting the code, argh. Do I need to relock my bootloader or do anything special? I got this code straight from ATT. With the ATT SIM in the phone, it doesnt ask for it, I restart phone with my T-mobile SIM in, and it asks for the code, but always says its incorrect. How is it checking this anyway, as it doenst seem to be communicating over the mobile network.
Any ideas would be much appreciated, thanks.

[Q][solved] device not avaiable unlock bootloader

Hello, my moto g is a locked bootloader, if I change the rom it, I'll get it unlock?
You have to unlock the bootloader first from here if you have a Moto G https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth.
Yea in order to install a ROM you have unlock the bootloader, and no installing a custom ROM won't unlock it you have to use the site above to unlock it. If you have a phone locked to any tariff like T-Mobile you won't be able to unlock it even if you unlock the Sim due to the addictions in the software and you will get a message "device not available" or something like this. So you can use guides available on the internet to solve this.

You can`t flash anything if you have a locked bootloader, not even a factory image and certainly not a custom rom. What is the problem on the Motorola site, could you post a screenshot when you try unlocking the bootloader via that site?

thanks for the support, I'll try this link.
wrap your head after a bit I decided to risk it all, I had a rom americamovil br ( claro Brazil ), this did not allow unlock the bootloader, so I installed the fastboot one retail rom Brazil, and yes I got this unlock the bootloader , noting that the risk of losing the IMEI is great, so think carefully before deciding to do the process.

[Q] Please help me unlock my LG G2 D800 32GB locked to AT&T

I purchased LG G2 D800 (32gb) locked to AT&T network. I wanted to unlock it with a code and tried various webstites - 3 of them replied that they cannot offer any support, 2 emailed me back with an unlock code. Codes from those 2 different websites were the same, however it did not work - I now have the last attempt left to unlock it. I tried through one of the 'shops' as well, but they couldn't help either. Can you please advise if you have a reliable way of unlocking or obtaining a code for unlocking? Is there any other way to unlock this phone? Maybe at least a way of bringing the count of tries back to 1? I also tried ringing AT&T but they could not help, as I did not have an account with them - I'm stuck.
Thanks for any help or suggestions you may have,
PLEASE HELP!:crying:
hi guys, I still waiting for your answer... Please help me!:crying:
is it giving you an error when you enter the unlock code? are you on a custom rom? i had the same problem with mine when i first got it. I was running a custom rom and it wouldnt accept the unlock code. went back to a fully stock rom and it worked perfectly

Thanks a lot for the advice. My phone wasn't rooted (I checked with an app) so I think its runs original rom (and it's Android 4.4.2), Baseband Version M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190082 Kernel Version 3.4.0 Build Number: KOT49I.D80020c Software Version D80020c
I have the last try (10 out of 10) to put a correct unlock code. Have you got any other suggestions? Do you know how to change the number of attempts of unlock back to 1? Thanks
unlock code???

How and where did you get an unlock code for the bootloader? I thought the ATT LG G2 32GB isn't capable of being unlocked.

I would honestly say flash a completely stock rom...go back to square 1 with it. find the AT&T stock image. flash it back thru the LG program. then try again with the unlock code. its possible the previous owner just flashed a stock ROM to the phone. does it have stock recovery on the phone or CWM or TWRP?

if you have'nt unlocked it yet try this ste i got it done for $1.9 the cheapest ever http://www.unlockcode247.com
Apologies for not writing back sooner. I only have 1 attempt left to put the code in, so I am reluctant to try another website, since 2 did not work.
I am worried I will lock the phone indifinitely. Does anybody know how to bring the count back to 1, so it was showing attempt 1 out of 10 for putting the sim lock code in? Thanks

Has anyone unlocked AND used a Custom ROM after?

Hi,
I need to unlock my device and my guess is I need to go back to Stock for the Tmobile Unlock App to work (does this even work in the first place?). So my question is has anyone used this successfully and also rooted/flashed another ROM after the unlock and it stayed unlocked?
If there are things I need to avoid after a successful unlock, please let me know that as well.
Thanks!
interesting
Well I know my N5 is unlocked under stock rom. After flashing a custom rom I lose the unlock. I've posted in other threads about this but there has not been a good answer other then getting an unlock code which I don't know how you would for tmo. But flashing an intl custom rom will let you get to the menu to enter the code to unlock. The question though is how and where would you get an actual numerical unlock code for a tmo device? Cellunlocker and a couple others I've contacted are not able to get an actual code to use for the tmo N5.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, my phone needs to get unlocked cause I'm moving to Japan and I rather unlock it than buy a new phone...until the Note 8 comes out.
I tried to Odin back to stock, but I get a DRK fail so I can't lol

Moto G 7 Power - Is there a way to bypass Tmobile's unlock app?

I bought a Moto G 7 from T-Mobile 5 months ago, but now I'm travelling abroad and can't use any local sim card because its sim locked and T-Mobile's won't unlock it for me. Is there any way to bypass that application?
When I insert the new sim card I get a screen saying that I can unlock it remotely (it is denied on that app). All I need to how to type the code to unlock it.

Hello. I`ll use this thread because of I have same issue. I flashed my metropcs with retail firmware and now it prompts me for code. Is it possible to be unlocked in that way?
So, just an update: I managed to replace the moto g power os, so now I have it debranded but it keeps asking for a code to unlock the sim card. I bought the Pantech UCC 2.0 (which was supposed to generate the code) but it didn't work. So now I'm looking for something to generate that code
If anyone got any tool or device that generates that for the moto g 7 power please let me know.

I`m in the same situation. But I`m even not sure that will evade the original unlock app.

After the debranding (installing the original os) the unlock app is no longer avaiable, so I get the default window asking for the code. Thing is I don't have the code

I mean I`m not sure that it is possible this phone to be unlocked by code since originally it is implemented to be unlocked by app.
I do believe it is possible since its the same screen I've seen on so many other apps. The unlock app was a mod Tmobile delivered with the version of the android operating system. When I replaced it, it went back to the default screen, so all I need now is a way to generate that code, it seems
