Hi guys
i have an optus locked oppo f1f which im thinking of giving it to my parents to use.
if i root and flash a custom rom will that remove the network lock on the phone?
is there another way to unlock it without having to pay optus or someone else?

Hi everyone!
I have a Huawei U8180 locked in Orange. Will ROM flashing unlock the phone? I mean after flashing would be possible to use any carrier around the world?
If yes, can you suggest me a guide to flash Huawei U8180.
Thanks in advance.
P.S: Sorry for my English, it's not my first language.
Neither rooting nor flashing another ROM will remove the carrier lock on a phone normally. You'll probably have to look up specific instructions for your phone.
As far as I know, most carriers will give you the unlock code after the contract has been completed. You may have to try calling a few times to get someone who knows how to do this, though.
No, ROM flashing will NOT unlock your phone. You need a specific code to unlock it so that it will accept any carrier's SIM. This can be obtained from your current carrier.
Hi. i m a little confused about phone unlocking. i m on Three UK with a HTC phone which is carrier locked. so no other sim is gonna be used on that phone. if i unlock the boot loader via HTCdev and after that i install/flash a custom rom, will it stay locked? even after flashing another ROM? and can someone tell me how the carriers put a lock on their devices?
thank u.
Assuming the boot loader is unlocked, the phone is rooted and a custom rom installed is there a way to network unlock the Z3 without a code purchased online ? Im thinking there might be something like this thread that uses an exploit or something to unlock the phone.
Alternatively, which is the fastest phone unlocking website ?
I bought a Samsung J7 from a provider (iusacell mx), I want to use it with another provider (telcel mx) but is locked for the original provider. My question is: if I install a custom rom (twrp) it will unlock it? Or I should first go to the provider to unlock and then install the rom?
Thanks in advance!
Custom ROM does not unlock the phone.
