unlocking t-mobile G2 - G2 and Desire Z General

Anyone know how or where to unlock the new G2? I want to use it with ATT LOL
Is there a method or a website I can get the unlock code?
Thanks!
Ps. I had the samsung captivate but the gps and lag on that thing made me return it. That's why I bought the G2.

You do realize that it won't work on ATT's 3G ; only EDGE?
Also, you might want to wait for the NA version of the Desire Z going to Canada ; you might pick up one of those since they have the 850Mhz band used for ATT's 3G.
About the unlock, you will have to wait for the phone to officially launch all over, and then unlock codes should pop up soon on eBay and other such sites.

Yes I'm aware that it will only work on edge.
The disire z is running sense which I don't want. I want as much stock android 2.2 on the phone. Besides the discontinued nexus one, this is my only choice.
Thanks for your reply.

Or.....if you're an existing T-mobile customer you can call them and request the unlock code.....That always seems to be the easiest way.

Yup, if you've bought it from them, and have been a customer for quite a while, just tell them that you need the unlock code since you travel a lot, and they should give it to you.
I see your point about being totally stock, however, some users have flashed the G2 ROM on the Desire Z with no hiccups, and thus getting Stock Android.

would you guys say that t-mobile can give me the unlock code even if did not buy the phone from them? lets say i bought it at best buy. i do have t-mobile account for my brother. but i bought the g2 full price from best buy.

As long as you have an account they should do it.

have your brother call them and tell CS that he bought the G2 and is planning an international trip and wants the unlock code. Simple

you should buy a desire z and flash a vanilla ROM on it so you'll get 3G support. Why get a super nice smart phone and only use EDGE?

You don't even need to say that. Just say you want it unlocked--you just need 40 days of active service. Check T-Mobile's SIM Unlock policy, it's the first hit on Google for "T-Mobile SIM Unlock".

Well my brother has had his account for over 5 years already. Well try calling and ask
For the unlock code because I "am leaving the country for travel" lol

Once its unlocked its unlocked . I always get mines done via tmobile live chat because u dont get all that chit chat just and ok all put that order n for u an ur have the code in 1-7days.
Also note to enter the code u must put a non tmobile sim n the phone then it will ask for unlock code. Thats how they all have worked but I havent unlocked my g2 yet tho

What do they ask for exactly?
Do they charge u for the unlock code?

stupid question but....
I don't get signal in my new house, but my friends on verison and att do. If I unlock my sim, does that mean I can use those towers when i don't have signal, or does that just mean I could switch my carrier and keep my phone? I had a rooted G1 and when I traveled to my mom's house who's town did not have t-mobile yet, I was able to use thier local carriers signal, I didn't know if everyone could do that, or if it was because my phone was rooted or what. anywho, sorry for rambling, but if someone could kindly make me less stupid be answering my question...

when we say "Unlock" we mean that you can put any simcard and the phone will pick up signal depending on the carrier.
if there are no towers near you, if you have roaming enabled, your phone will roam using other towers but they may charge you for that as far as i know.

Just called Tmobile to unlock
They said I could, that they would give me the code, but that the G2 is still not in their system, so they can't request unlock codes for this phone.
They asked me to call again in a few days.
Does that make sense?

LG expo on Tmobile

Hey all,
Im interested in getting an LG Expo, unlocking it and using it on Tmobile. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Have you gotten data connections to work (ie tzones)? Id rather not be a pioneer
there both gsm, and if its unlocked, then it will work. will not get 3g though
Lg Expo GW820
I just got the expo and am trying to do the same. The problem happening right now is getting the unlock codes from at&t. They're claiming they don't have the codes yet from the manufacturer. Once you get the subsidy codes you should be up and running. I will post the codes as soon as I receive them from at&t.
Lg Expo
I do have the lg expo and unlocked too u can pm me if u like
i'm not sure but i don't believe the eXpo has compatible 3g bands for tmob.. correct me if i'm wrong tho
so even it is unlocked you won't enjoy full 3G speeds

you are correct. but tmobile is cheaper that att.
also if you need an unlock code probably ebay is the best place. just search for lg expo unlock code.
cheaper mayb.. but def not as reliable coverage. or as fast without 3g.. i guess it all boils down to what your needs are

aren't unlock codes generated from IMEI? i.e. the unlock code that works for your eXpo will not work for mine.

MUCH cheaper. I pay $5 a month for unlimited (but slow) internet. Enough to do light browsing, check email, and get RSS feeds
Good to see that it is working on Tmobile tho, Ill have to get one now
Just got the phone unlocked. Tzones+Edge and service works perfectly!
I am started to get a little jealous of T-mobile
http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/16/t-mobile-launching-21mbps-webconnect-rocket-htc-hd2-next-month/
My brother owns one and he has had for a month or two now on the tmobile network and it works great. I highly recommend it if you have not already purchased one.
This is the best prepaid phone I ever have in my life. Brought the phone after cash back and all = less than $118 on ebay, phone was a Demo used for a week, so it was basically brand new with everything still in the box. Add the T-mobile prepaid sim card with 157 minute and gold memberships, cost buying it from my brother, $5 and a bag of Doritos. So my new prepaid phone comes out to be less than $125 and it is going to cost me $10 for 35 extra minutes and 1 whole year of service. So my phone service is going to cost me $0.83 cent a month for emergency uses while I can used wifi for internet connection since my campus has free wifi.
And a shout out to wahida76, thank you very much, I owed you one.

HD2 T-Mobile version...Will it work on AT&T 3G?

Out of the box, will the US T-Mobile version out this Wednesday work on the AT&T fast 3G network by just poping in the sim card already set up for 3G use? If not why not?
Look at other threads, and do your research. I won't give you an answer, because its easy to see.
in a non mean way, nope. only edge.
unfortunately not, since tmobile uses a diffrent 3g band than att means you will be without 3g service, so you can only use EDGE (which we all know is not good) however you could put the phone on your wi-fi connection, and you will need to unlock the phone before you can use your att sim, (call tmobile and tell them your moving out of the country to london, its what i do )
with EGDE ... no 3G

You have to have service with them for a while before you can unlock phones.
or take it to a repair shop and they can unlock for you. usually like $30

Find a friend with T-Mobile, buy the phone, ask them to ask cs to unlock it for them, since they are "Going our of town" or it "says sim locked, please enter sim code". Either will work, since they will happily oblige, id try the 2nd one first since its more of a I need the code for the phone to work type of thing.

[Q]Unlocking Carrier

Okay i will b getting my HD2 today and its on T-Mo and im on ATT i know i need to unlock it to use it on Att but i want to run Andriod on it.
Now the question would be do i have to unlock it prior to using andriod via nand or can i just unlock it in andriod or will it remove the unlock ?
There's no hack to unlock it, you're gonna need a code. Reportedly unlock codes work fine in Android, but you might just as well unlock it in WinMo. Flashing another firmware does not remove the unlock code.

ebay cost me £6 and took 12hours. The local shop wanted 30 and the phone for 2 days
I'm not sure but I think you can call T-Mobile and they will give you the code for free. There was a post some time ago talking about this. Maybe you can look it up and see what people have done to get the code.
I will be trying to get the code 1st off of Tmobile see if that works i spoke to a buddy of mine that works there. He said that they have to give it to you no matter what. Since i dont have there service i will have my firend call it in and she been a customer for ages of theres.
i will post back once i get a response
*Edit*
So we called last night they said 24hrs been about so no email yet.
I got the code its unlocked but now no 3g speeds that is so disappointing
No 3g speeds on aT&t? Well that's expected since aT&t operates on 3g bands the HD2 doesn't support.

The only way you would be able to use AT&T network is if you buy the Telstra HD2 T9193 other than that your just going to be stuck on edge.

You can call Sprint and have the SIM card officially unlocked. If you are a new customer you have to wait 90 days before they let you do this though, if you're an old customer it shouldn't be a problem.

From what I understand Sprint has to do something on their end to unlock the SIM. It will only work on overseas networks too, they aren't unlocking it for domestic networks.

I also have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and am really hoping they will allow for it to be SIM unlocked for domestic use as well. At least they didn't ship it with a locked bootloader.

Sorry, I didn't know about the Blackberry. Maybe because Blackbaerrys are somewhat unusual devices they made an exception. In any case, that would make it the only Sprint GSM device that I have ever heard of that was capable of operating in the US. All iOS and Androids have always been blocked for usage in the US. That said though, there have been hacks to some of them which enabled US use, though sometimes at the expense of not being able to use the device with CDMA while the hack was in place (meaning they couldn't be used on Sprint).
Hello, guys.
Who looking to unlock own Samsung S4 Sprint - please send to me PM. I have one way which shall to be checked. I'm still don't havemy own Sprint's S4 on hands to check if this way will works

Yep... it was a fruitless venture.
it would be great if we could get the sim unlocked for domestic use.
I'd be happy with unlocking it for non US GSM providers at the moment, I find it ridicules that I have to wait 90 days after having the account with Sprint for 2 years. It is a new phone and I need to travel now.
Anyways if there is any way to unlock it I'd like to know.

He's asking for a SIM unlock, not bootloader unlock, and the Verizon device (as he mentioned, just added a 0 to the model #) gets unlocked naturally after you insert an active SIM into it. Do you know anyone in the US with a Verizon account? It should take a few minutes.

Hi,
An update from unlockunit.com:
Hi Hackerjj,
Unfortunately, if you cannot find your Phone Model, Country or Network listed on our website, we are unable to generate the unlocking codes for your device.
If you get the message ‘’Unavailable’’ after entering the order details on our website, one of the below situations may occur:
1. Your phone is locked within a CDMA and not a GSM network (you can check on www.gsmarena.com if your phone is a CDMA model)
2. Your phone is not part of the networks/countries that we currently unlock
In order to receive the correct unlock code, it’s very important that you select the correct country and network you originally bought your phone from. In case you place an order with the incorrect order details, we will not be able to refund your payment.
We are constantly improving our service and we hope that very soon we will start to offer unlocking codes for devices locked to Verizon, U.S.A. such as yours.
Thank you for your collaboration and we apologize we couldn't help you this time.
Have a great day!
Kind regards,
Ionut Z.

not true.. i never understood why people will come in here and trust anything anyone says when it comes to sim unlocking lol..
verizon unlock policy states to prevent theft/fraud users are required to activate the device with verizon then after 60 days the device will be unlocked..
if his verizon purchased g975u was never activated on verizon then he hasnt even started his 60 day wait period.. verizon specifically implemented this policy because of people doing what the op is doing... purchase a phone for cheap somehow then use it on some other carrier/network without ever using verizon..
i am sure they had lots of theft and fraud going on with users scamming vzw devices for cheap then reselling for profit since they were unlocked theyd work anywhere out thebox so thisis their way of trying to combat that..

bro, your device isnt a "g9750u" its a g975u.. theres no such thing as a g9750u lol.. also, flashing a rom wont unlock the phone.. also, you cant flash any custom roms anyways since u have alockedbl and no, ur device is not bl unlockable either

not true.. i never understood why people will come in here and trust anything anyone says when it comes to sim unlocking lol..
verizon unlock policy states to prevent theft/fraud users are required to activate the device with verizon then after 60 days the device will be unlocked..
if his verizon purchased g975u was never activated on verizon then he hasnt even started his 60 day wait period.. verizon specifically implemented this policy because of people doing what the op is doing... purchase a phone for cheap somehow then use it on some other carrier/network without ever using verizon..
i am sure they had lots of theft and fraud going on with users scamming vzw devices for cheap then reselling for profit since they were unlocked theyd work anywhere out thebox so thisis their way of trying to combat that..

Thanks! I had bought a Verizon Sim, it is on the way, I think I will receive it in 2 weeks, after that we will know it the cellphone is unlockable. This is the last thing I can do, I think this cellphone is un-rootable also a pain. Another way is to use this provider, but I have not completely trust and is very expensive. https://store.unlockboot.com/remote-unlock-service/
