Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge +, T-Mobile. I called T-Mobile to have the phone unlocked so I could sell it. Should be a simple procedure. . .but they are unable to do so because they claim the IMEI number is not registered with them and therefore it isn't a T-Mobile phone. The box it came in says T-Mobile, when it boots up the T-Mobile logo appears, I am using their network to call and text, my bill shows the line is active and working, confirmed they have the correct IMEI number. The phone rep said it is a Samsung issue and to call them. I did, and was abruptly told they have nothing to do with unlocking the phone and bounced me back to T-Mobile. . .who just told me they will put in a request for tech support and I should hear back from them in 5 days. WTF?!
What's a guy to do??!

Did you buy the device new or used?
If it's used, are you sure it hasn't been flashed with the IMEI from a different device? Are you sure it isn't a non-Tmobile device that has been flashed with Tmobile stock firmware?
Sent from my SM-S903VL using Tapatalk
The phone was purchased direct from Samsung. It has never been flashed or altered in any way. When I contacted Samsung they confirmed that the IMEI I gave them shows in their database as a T-Mobile phone. So all fingers point to a screw up of some kind with T-Mobile.
So I just received my unlocked galaxy s8+ G955U from swappa. I was hoping it would be as easy as putting in my previous nano sim card from my Nexus 6p and activating. It isn't. The branding is t-mobile. Showing t-mobile screen when I turn it on. I tried activating from myverizon , but when I enter the imei it says: "The phone associated with the Device ID you entered is not compatible with the Verizon Wireless network. Try a Different Device"
I purchased an unlocked phone hoping to avoid most if not all of the verizon bloatware. But, I need to be able to make phone calls and tie it to my Verizon account.
Any help, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

clearly you got the Tmobile s8+ model. Even if its unlocked it only works with Gsm networks. Verizon is CDMA not gsm. Return for a refund and buy a no-career unlocked phone. Good luck
This is the model you need https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-galaxy-s8-64gb-unlocked-midnight-black/5803742.p?skuId=5803742
I think you're right. This sucks. But, it's good to know. I've been on the phone with customer service for 40 minutes trying to get it activated and still no luck.

What I don't understand is that the customer service representative says it's activated on her end. I just can't make or receive calls. No lte or 3g shown.

That is 100% absolutely false and incorrect. All the US S8+ models have the SAME EXACT hardware. Only the firmware is different.

OP, are you SURE it's network Unlocked? The T-Mo branded S8 shipped network locked. If it's network Unlocked, it WILL work on Verizon, but it will still have the T-Mo bootup screen and apps. That's the firmware.
If you want no bloatware, check out the threads for flashing the Unlocked Firmware.
After exhausting all my options I took my friends advice, and called t-mobile. Turns out the phone is still locked. So it's either the seller unlocks it, or refund.

Maybe you can answer this question. If the phone is still locked. Can I flash firmware to unlock it, and activate it on Verizon. (I don't even care about bloatware anymore. I just want to have a working phone)

No, you can't unlock it just by flashing the unlocked firmware. T-Mobile will have to unlock it.
Read one of the threads a out flashing unlocked firmware, it will answer many of your questions, including the ones you have asked in this thread.
Hello!
So I've been going through a saga of getting the right phone and even through googling its hard to decipher exactly what i need given my experience.
I'll provide some details and where I'm at or at the bottom i'll give a TLDR.
I live in the US have AT&T and I want a rooted S7.
Got a S7 for xmas, after doing some research found out that model isn't rootable (SM-G930).
Returned it got one I found was rootable SM-G930W8, said unlocked, and I saw on a few resources it was compatible with AT&T.
Rooted the w8 beautifully, got my new sim card and no signal.
Put in #7465625*638*# and said "Carrier Locked"
Worked with an unlock service, they looked up my phone to tell me exactly what it was, have the code on deck.
Enter code, crickets but possible my sim card doesn't work or i need to try on the stock rom.
Got a new new sim card, no signal. Erased my root and went stock data wipe, no signal.
Tried my best to find stock firmware that lined up with the info the unlock company gave, no signal.
Now, given all that information, can anyone recommend me a model? Just want it to be rootable and work with AT&T.
I'd appreciate any comments on my experience too because clearly i messed up somewhere or the phones sim card reader was busted etc.
TL;DR : I'm USA & AT&T. I want an s7 that is rootable. Had an episode with my previous attempts and would love a guru's advice.
The sm-g930w8 is the same model sold by all carriers in Canada.
Does the phone have a clean imei? Sim card works in another phone?

The old s7 has been sent back so I can't really answer that question.
Nor can I answer the sim card works, because i dont have an extra phone that uses that type.
I did go to the AT&T store to ask if they could check my sim card with an extra phone they have.
Apparently they don't have extra phones ready for that type of nature??? (wtf???)
So I got a new sim card activated from them to see if the s7 would take it, it didn't.
Still just sounds carrier unlocked to me, what service were you using to try unlock it?
Otherwise the G930F is the international model and easiest to mod.
Only concern you'd have is the US uses a different network standard to the rest of the world, so your 3G/4G won't work as well on a non-US device.
EDIT: There also seems to be some root methods for the US models:

So to give more details.
I installed the Superman Rom, put the # in to input the carrier code. At the top, in all caps, above the input for the code "CARRIER LOCKED".
Would the superman rom mess with that? or show bad info? not sure
What i do know is that i factory reset the phone, tried the # to get the prompt didn't work.
Tried a few alternatives, same one with the actual network code in it, the 1101, both didn't work.
The company is "Unlock Scope"
Is the imei of the w8 clean?
The w8 should work with at&t when unlocked.

So I'm not 100% sure but..
When I was originally using the unlock service they needed the original carrier information, which I didn't know, so they asked for the IMEI so they could look it up.
They emailed a full list of details on it and I'd think that it would of been flagged in that process, assuming though.
So the w8 is now unlocked through the unlocking service?
Here's a link to the swappa imei checker: https://swappa.com/esn

no the w8 never unlocked. code never worked.
Thanks for the link
Edit:
Checked and it came clear.
Was the phone sold as being unlocked? Is the seller able to give you any carrier information about he phone?
Are you able to change the csc by entering this into the dialler: *#272*Phone’s IMEI Here# ?

Yessir! I liked what I saw. My price range is 300-350$ and I'm seeing those types of deals on Ebay so i'm gonna keep going until I get what i want.
I'm open to other suggestions too.
You'll have to decide first if you want a Qualcomm or exynos phone.

From what I remember, when I researched before Exynos was the choice.
After some light research I came with the same conclusion.
You thoughts? I want to be able to root it and use it on AT&T network if those factor in.
I know the 930w8 is an exynos and should support att frequencies.

That is weird because I got one for a friend, got a network unlock code,and it works perfectly on T-Mobile and all carriers in Canada.
Maybe there was something wrong with the phone you received? Where did your phone come from?

I got it from ebay.
Hello, I hope someone here can help me, since I've already tried everything I know.
I bought a OnePlus 7 Pro 5g from ebay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/193541542389?ViewItem=&item=193541542389) because I checked on T-Mobiles website and it says it was carrier compatible I'm also aware that the 5g won't work on T-Mobile. The seller assures me the device is unlocked and when I go into System Updates, it says below UICC Unlock that the device is unlocked. But when I insert my T-Mobile sim card it won't connect to the network. These are the things I tried:
Inserted the T-Mobile sim card but it won't connect to the network.
Tried going into settings/SIM & Network/Network Operators and chose T-Mobile 4g but after a while it says the sim card can't register to the selected network.
Tried T-mobile customer support and they say I need to talk to Sprint.
Talked to Sprint customer support and they said I need a new sim card.
Went to T-Mobile and got a new sim card but still nothing.
Did a factory reset but still did not work.
Wiped data & cache but still not working.
Tried updating PRL, Profile and UICC Unlock under the System Updates Setting of the phone using WIFI internet and I got an error.
I don't know what else to try. I even contacted the seller and he assures me the phone is unlocked and that it should work without a problem. I'm in Puerto Rico and using T-Mobile but I can't get this to work no matter what. Can anyone provide some insight on this or does someone here has any experience using this model (GM1925) with T-Mobile?
*Edit*
Forgot to add. When I insert the SIM card and it tries to connect to the network, after a while I get a notification that's titled Phone Services and it says Phone not allowed for voice. Anyone know what that means?
Have you tried with Force LTE app on Android and selecting the correct mode for Tmobile?
Had a similar issue when using Visible phone on Tmobile. After using the App and selecting the correct Network Mode was able to get everything working

Well my problem was solved. According to an awesome telegram group I found and with the help of an awesome member called Chris Starling, we managed to get the phone working. Turns out that some Sprint phones being sold on ebay are semi-blacklisted and will not work with US carriers. The method to solve the problem involves tampering with the IMEI and I barely understood it, the member Chris basically did everything and got the phone working again. So this thread can be closed.
I suggest that no one buy phones from the same seller I got it from.
Hi Lpedraja2002,
If possible can you please elaborate on your solution? I am faced with this same issue, a locked Sprint SIM from an ebay scam. I am familiar with the concept of rooting and changing the IMEI using a root app, but would love to know some more details.
Cheers
Hi.
I also have the same issue. I got the gm1925 model as present. I'm not living in USA but can't use the network in my country. I try 3 sim from several Carrier but it didn't work.
Can you please tell as how you did it.
There is a MSM tool tutorial for unlocking the bootloader on the locked 5G variant. Normally blowing away the software from recovery would work but if Sprint locked the SIM via the IMEI number than it should be possible to unlock the SIM by changing the IMEI. I will be trying this soon using a IMEI changer root app, or maybe using ADB or something. Will update next week.
Edit: can confirm it is impossible to unlock the sim, even by changing the IMEI. One has to get in contact with Sprint.
Following up on this as I recently purchased a OnePlus 7 Pro 5G and am now stuck with it. Wish I read this thread earlier. Can you pass along your contact Chris Starling if he would be able to help?
If it's who I'm thinking of I may know the guy.

i need a help on sim unlock oneplus 7 pro (Sprint) and oneplus 8 (tmobile or Sprint)
I have a Sprint GM 1925 that is debranded and sim unlocked. Both Verizon and T-Mobile confirm it is unlocked but it shows as not compatible and can't be activated by either carrier. I also get a notification that's titled Phone Services and it says Phone not allowed for voice when inserting a T-Mobil SIM. So any help guys?
To everyone here I might have a possible solution.
I was looking for the answer here and didn't found it, so contacted sprint by chat by this link https://www.sprint.com/en/legal/unlocking-your-sprint-device.html talked through chat and waited for 30 minutes. Then I looked for system/updates and then click the UICC unlock it search out for updates and then unlocked the phone. My phone is a one plus 7 pro gm1925. Just hope this could help someone out here.
Hi all,
Amazon and many online retailers are selling this model GM1925. Please advise whether it’s worth to buy. My friend bought this and using via T-Mobile network with 4g however it’s not working with Xfinity Mobile network sim.

I need help with my sprint locked OP 7 pro GM1925. Can you please help?
Hello,.
I bought a phone, 8t plus (tmobile version). when i try to check imei status it says invalid imei... it came with a deactivated sim card.
i tried paying three different unlock site services for the t-mobile unlock app. but they keep returning to me saying that they could not find the imei or its invalid.
I'm in a real pinch here, I love this phone, what are my options? is there some way to force unlock it with a different firmware or something like this? maybe you've got a clue why my imei doesn't show up anywhere?
many thanks
If it's bought from eBay, you're SOL - invalid IMEI is invalid IMEI. You will want to refund it and buy the virgin OnePlus 8T to ensure you don't run into problem.
It will be tough to remove the IMEI from the blacklist, as it's usually death sentence for that ID number, not to mention it's illegal to mess with it.
Especially for this reason, I don't buy used phone anymore unless it won't see network service (usually as a Linux hacking plaything), and I mainly buy new phones ever since to guarantee that I don't run into any problems.
Sent from my OnePlus 8T using Tapatalk
it doesnt give any error, through the tmobile unlock app it says "not eligible" which all unlock sites say that's what you want to get..
THEY say that they cant find the imei anywhere and that maybe I gave them invalid imei, but I'm sure I did not... this happened with more than 1 service site. any clues? i don't want to return it unless absolutely neccessary
Alright, double check your IMEI to ensure you don't make any mistake. There are three ways to check the IMEI, of course; 1. dial *#06#, browse into Settings, and go through "About phone", and 2. touch "Network Status" if the IMEI is not shown or 3. reboot your phone into Fastboot and scroll the UEFI Fastboot bootloader option down to "Show barcodes". It's easy to make mistakes with long numbers like IMEI - had to triple check mine before submitting the application for the bootloader unlock token.

I checked, the imei i gave them was the correct one, I wish that was the problem. how can an imei be invalid (not blocked/blacklisted)?isn't there any way to flash something on the phone to sim ulock it? thanks
even services that CHECK if its blacklisted doesnt work with phones IMEI. what is going on here?! thanks
This phone is not blocked—it’s ready to use on the T-Mobile network.
Device Name Not Available
IMEI: *****************
that's what the unlock service site sent me, they said that is the reply they received..
Alright, if you have Straight Talk or maybe a T-Mobile SIM, test it to make sure it's alive.
Sent from my OnePlus 8T using Tapatalk
You have to have it so long before T-Mo will unlock the device.
Three days minimum if I recall. I had mine unlocked in a week after the purchase, and only have unlocked its UEFI bootloader a few days ago once the LineageOS 18 ROM matured just enough for my liking. Otherwise it's a 40 days wait.

Hey there!
can you PM me a screen shot of your IMEI, please? I really want to look in this. I have a oneplus 8t. Thanks.
I am outside of the usa at the moment so the T-Mobile SIM card that came with the phone is unable to activate... I'm starting to wonder if that's the only problem
I have found a rather expensive service provider that has full confidence that he can unlock my phone. Will update you further when I have more details.
Is it safe giving my imei to other forum members? can it be used for malicious activity?
Many thanks.

Then use it on TMobile for minimum 3days then unlock it via tforce on facebook or twitter T-Mobile help. But this requires you to have TMobile service. That's the only way you will unlock that phone those unlocking site aren't connected to get the 8t from T-Mobile unlocked that's mainly for samsung devices trust me I run a repair shop and use the unlocking sites. If you can't get TMobile service then you best bet is to return the device if you can't return your SOL until a simunlock bypass come
I'm not from the USA . Anyone got suggestion how to get it activated ? Thanks
Hey friends!
i've promised to update as it unfolds, day before I was supposed to return phone I got it unlocked by a vendor claiming he is working with T-Mobile directly or something like this, and said he can do it although not cheaply.
That guy had a handful of troubles to deal with me as I put him on a timeline, and not only that, bombarded him with conflicting messages before I decided to actually use his service. he was extremely polite and understanding.
may I recommend an ebay vendor here? if yes I will put a link to his store.
thanks!

Sounds like you purposely bought a phone that was either lost or stolen in the US and was sold to an overseas buyer because the blacklist on devices from US and Canadian carriers does not extend outside of the US and Canada.

It is more of a buyer beware statement about buying cheap devices from other countries.
