Just got tired of waiting a solution for sim unlock my D2G

that's it I just got tired of waiting a solution for sim unlock my D2G, so ...
any of you, D2G owners, US citizen with a VZ contract, is interested in exchange your previously sim unlocked D2G with mine?
mine is blue, zero scratches, and no dust at all anywhere (it has been keept stored in the box most of the time).. ESN clean off course (i'll give you my IMEI so you can check with VZ)
the idea would be to send you mine (without battery and SD card and factory reseted off course)... I pay the shipping... you receive mine, and send yours to me (same conditions off course) .. yeah I pay that shipping too ...
so you get a mint one, and I receive yours sim unlocked... don't care at all about color.. and even I'm open to receive a phone with some usage marks... this is not scam, I'm just a guy tired of waiting to make his phone work ..
regards
Victor

Solution is easy
For me solution was easy. I pain 19 PLN (about $6,60) for an unlock code. I;m using my D2G in Poland and it works great.

Obviously the unlock codes sold on the 'net didn't work for walderrama; so I'm not sure why are you sharing your positive experience with that here, Gibol666.

yeah indeed I've payed 4 times for codes that didn't worked (actually each seller promised that their codes will work as charm, but all 4 gave me the same codes)
well, I see that there's not enough "interest" in help me ... but what about if I add USD $50.- to this "favor"... I'll send it trough paypal as soon as I get the tracking number of the shipping .
regards

You can only unlock a phone that hasn't had unlock code altered by Verizon. With D2G it is a hit or miss. Some unlock (like mine), others do not.
All online unlockers gather their database from Motorola. Hence providing same codes. For "altered" phones, only Verizon can give you the right code. Unfortunately...

[Q] 1 unlock tries left

I bought an unlock code, which did not work (I double and triple checked IMEI).
I now have only 1 unlock tries left.
How do I unlock if last try does not work ?

For real dude in the dev section?

I was able to unlock it using the Stock rom only

ok
i reverted to stock rom through LG update (except recovery, in case that matters)

Did you happen too see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13381450#post13381450

Just call tmo. Your code might be wrong one.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App

I'm not a t-mo customer, and I don't live in the US..

Try to order another code from a reputable seller and check to see if they are the same. If it is the same, you must have either read the IMEI wrong or enter it incorrectly. If it is not the same, you can take your last chance try to unlock it...

I bought mine on eBay from this seller and it worked fine
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=260776518349
It was $10 back in may when I bought mine and it looks like it's only $3.20 now. Like I said mine worked fine. Your mileage may vary.

Get back to the person you bought the code from and have them double check it. If you hard lock the device you will never be unable to unlock it. You have to make sure the IMEI is correct by doing *#06# and enter your unlock code super carefully. How many times did you enter the wrong code? LG gives you ten unlock attempts. Why do you only have 1 attempt left? If you want a code fast I can help you get one for $6.00 (cheaper on eBay). Make very sure the next code you try is correct and enter the numbers very carefully.

There is NO reason you have to buy a unlock code.
Cell providers in the USA HAVE too provide you the unlock code, it's the LAW.
They email it too you within 24 hours.

I'm pretty sure there is no law requiring that in the USA. T-Mobile will do it for active account holders. I think you have to have had your account in good standing for a certain number of consecutive days or something. But I don't think there is any law requiring it.

It is lawful to unlock your phone, but there is no law that I know of that requires a carrier to do so. In many cases they will provide you with the code if your case meets their criteria.

Here is T-Mobile's policy on the matter

Actually I've double checked the code that I gave them, and it still does not unlock.
I tried multiple roms, and this is why I have only 1 attempt left.
Think you can help me with the unlock code ? I can give you the code I've tried, and you can see if you have another one listed.
Edit: I've called t-mobile, and after talking with them for 20 minutes, they said that I can ask a "friend" which has a T-mobile account with prepaid and active for over 60 days, which could ask for the subsidized unlock code for me..
Any volunteers ? (It should "cost" you only a call to them..)

Yes but you would need to send me $6.00 by PayPal for me to get the code for you. I would need your IMEI also (triple checked). Then you can see if the code from my source is the same as the code you bought already.

A. I won't pay $6 just to check if its the same code.
B. I am hoping to get free help from a t-mobile customer as I wrote above..

"Dear Customer,
Sorry I have been unable to generate the correct unlock code for your mobile. There are so many mobile out there sometimes the firmware on certain versions mean I cant generate the code.
I have sent your details over the accounts team who will send you a refund. Although normally quicker please allow up to 7 days for the refund to get back into your account.
Once again I apologise for not being able to get the correct code for your mobile. Your only option may be your network operator or a local shop who can unlock via a cable.
Best Regards,

Don't post your MEID or IMEI publicly, people can do all sorts of nasty things like report your phone stolen with that information.

help me ........

So you got the refund from TheUnlockShack.com?
Since most of them can give money back if they cannot find your code.You can try another unlock website or find on eBay. I got my code from an eBay seller.
Did you make sure you gave the correct IMEI, not MEID?

You can obtain your IMEI number by pressing *#06# on your mobile phone. Try it.

Note: that will only show the IMEI if the phone is in GSM mode. Maybe in Global mode too, but definitely not in CDMA mode.
IMEI is available under Settings, About phone, Status.

Scammer Unlock Codes http://unlockcellphonecode.com/

Hi guys,
As you know, Nokia Lumia 900 AT&T can be unlocked for free calling at AT&T. I paid for this guy in http://unlockcellphonecode.com/ for an unlock code for Nokia Lumia 900 AT&T. Now, I've gotten unlock it for free My Nokia Lumia 900 AT&T, but this guy I emailed it for a refund, NO ANSWERS from him. So, like a advice, Dont buy code here http://unlockcellphonecode.com/ .and find a good page to unlock your devices.
Thanks!!

If you were stupid enough to pay him for the unlock code then that is your problem. You paid him for a service, he delivered - doesn't give you the right to ask for a refund and doesn't make him a scammer either..:banghead:

Terms and Conditions said:
All Unlock codes are digitally delivered via email. Customers are Instantly emailed a username and password to submit their phone info (imei, model, the service provider the phone is currently locked to, etc) directly to the unlock servers immediately after purchase. When the server has generated the unlock code, it will automatically be emailed back to you using the email address you provided when you submitted your phone information. Please make sure to check your junk/spam folder before emailing support.
All unlock codes are guaranteed. If we can not generate your unlock code or offer a software unlocking solution we will refund you.
Due to the nature of unlock codes, video proof will be REQUIRED from anyone claiming an unlock code does not work.
Most codes are pulled directly from the manufacturer or service provider databases so the only chance of getting an invalid code is by the customer submitting incorrect information to the server.
Refunds will not be issued for incorrect information (imei, model, provider etc) being submitted and hence resulting in an inaccurate code.

Unless you can show that the code they supplied doesn't work, they will not refund you.

If you got what you paid for, and still want refund, that would make you a scammer, and not the other way round...

[A] regional lock

So, a lot of you, who bought your S6 from other countries which aren't the one you live in, know that the S6 is Regional lock.
I've tried to find a way to unlock it via software and other methods and came to the conclusion that the only way is to pay for an unlocking site so they will get you your code from the manufacturer database BUT almost all of those sites can't get the unlock codes for the S6 devices!
So, after almost 3 weeks I've decided to send an email to Samsung mobile and to ask them for help in this matter; in my case, I bought mine in Germany and it is lock to all European networks, so I've sent an email (in English) to Samsung's Germany support told them about my problem and ask them to help me, I've even offered to pay them directly online.
To my surprise, they have me to send them my device's IMEI, the country is which I live in, the carrier that im using and a copy of me receipt, after I did so they send me a response saying that they will send me my device unlock code in the next couple of day FOR FREE!
So the answer to all of us, who share this problem is just to send Samsung
(which correspond to where you bought your device) an email asking for help in that matter.
go to this site
http://www.samsung.com/global/support/globalcontact.html
locate the country from which you bought your device, and enter that country samsung website, then go to Support-->mobile---> mobile and tablets then at the bottom click on Contact Service and Support by e-mail.
there you will need to fill your details.
you can use the same text that ive send them, and you will most likely get the same results:
Hello,
I live in -write your country-., I bought my galaxy S6 in -write the country.
My device is locked to -write the which region-, and I would like to unlock it, I've tried doing so for almost 3 weeks now and none of the unlock services are able to unlock it.
I don't mind paying in order to unlock it, but no one can!
Please help me, either by releasing my unlock code to those companies or, if it possible, for me to pay you directly.
IMEI -
Serial num -
Model SM-G920F
Date of purchase
Thank you,
your name

i sent them. hope it will work.
Thanks!

Not as smooth a task for me. I'm Australian and bought mine in the Netherlands, and their support has been terrible. First they told me they can't unlock it, then they said they could but I'd have to fill out a special form so I did, after over a week of hearing nothing I took it upon myself to contact them again, and asked them where my code was, only to be told I had sent the wrong receipt (I was given a few with my purchase), I asked them when they planned on telling me as I would've given them the other receipt upon request but I heard nothing. After unsuccessfully trying 5 different unlock sites I decided I'd go back to the samsung route. I contacted their support again, heard nothing for nearly another week, went on their live chat only to find out they didn't even receive my email, lucky the lady was nice and gave me her personal email and said shed make sure the request went through, but said it'd take 1-2 weeks. So as of the time of this message I've had a $1200 brick for nearly a month, with not much promise of anything really changing. Hopefully this woman will be more helpful than the last few I've had.

I got an answer from samsung usa.
they told me that they cant help me because by the law- only the carrier can provide an unlock code.
i send them mail back, hope that's can help.

That's bull**** tell them its region locked not carrier locked. Its not illegal to remove a region lock, especially if they're the people that made the damn phone.

In the first mail they told me that they cant help me.
i sent them another mail that says the seller told me that he cant help me and the device is locked.
they sent me that mail back: (only relevant part is here)
However, Non-US/International model devices are also available at the third party retailers like Best Buy, Walmart stores and online stores like Amazon, eBay etc in the US. As the Samsung support is country specific we in Samsung US Email support do not have information regarding Non-US/international model devices.
For information regarding your product and assistance for it, we suggest you to contact the appropriate country support team where the device was purchased/manufactured. You can also contact the place of purchase for any available assistance and to know the origin of the device. Only, they can provide you with the region unlock codes. For your convenience, we will provide you with a web link wherein you can select and reach the required country support team.
