Having some issues unlocking a rogers LG g2 on rogers for use on bell (in canada). I requested the code from a supplier we use at work called swift unlocks. First one came back with an error saying not found. Second one came back and gave me 5 codes. I tried 4 of 5 of them and retried the first one twice. All were unsuccessful. I'm pretty nervous about trying it again unless i know i have the right code. Anybody have any clue as to why this would be? I could pm imei and the unlocks if for whatever reason you needed them. Thanks!
I used a different unlock service but just to confirm:
The IMEI code that you sent them was 15 digits, and
The unlock code that you received back was 16 digits?
The unlock code is calculated based on your IMEI, so an incorrect IMEI will generate in incorrect unlock code. Just confirming, no insult intended.
Edit: the 'not found' error from the first guy might be an indication of an IMEI number problem, the second might attempt to calculate the code without verifying the number of digits (just guessing).
You Recieve Order Like this = NCK: 3318127327994422 NSCK: 8229847774723821 SPCK: 3456299809863781 CPCK: 7894406766580758 SIMCK: 8088200593212927
In Which Unlock Codes Are:
Unlock Code = 3318127327994422 (NCK)
Service Provider Code = 8229847774723821 OR 3456299809863781 (NSCK OR SPCK)
But yes make sure the imei is correct
I had an issue unlocking my phone if i wasn't on the stock lg rom, on aosp it wouldn't unlock for some reason.

Anyone have any idea why my Unlock code won't work when entered. It says unsuccessful when I enter it.
AT&T i987
running Russian to Euro firmware method & modem file
using T Mobile Sim to trigger the Unlock Field at boot.
Purchased from Cellunlocker.net - they insist the code is correct
Does it need a different modem file?
thanks

Check that your IMEI was not changed after reflashing. If not then it is very likely that unlock would work only with your original firmware. If it has been changed then something important got corrupted causing unlock to fail.
I've received unlock code from US T-mobile and it dod not work also after reflashing.
However, changing one byte in the system file as it descibed multiple time worked without any issue on both tmobile and att tabs.

Unlock code for tab
I got a code from cellunlocker.net too, and initially it came back incorrect, saying "sim net pin error" or something like that and they too insisted it was correct,
BUT what i realized is that the was the code was correct and I had to follow the instructions here:

seems like alot of tabs the IMEI changes, or the software has to be adjusted
Hello Everyone,
I have a Tmobile G2 that doesn't accept my VALID unlock code. I got this online and the seller of the code is very sure that this is indeed the valid code and he is saying that some one might have entered some invalid code multiple times which is why the phone is not accepting even a valid one from HTC servers.
Please Help!..Is there any way out of this? i.e. to reset the counter or something like that...
Thank you!..
Additional info
To add some additional info, when i typed in the code and pressed unlock, it didn't give me "Invalid code error " "Code invalid" some thing like that but rather said "Network code unlock unsuccessful" to which i was told that the code is fine and it has to do with the Phone itself. I also didn't get any notification of number of tries left.
Hope some one familiar with this can guide me out. Thanks!.
See the gfree method of rooting in the Development section. It will allow you to SuperCID which essentially does the same thing as "unlocking".
Thank you. Good to know that this can be achieved by a different method. I am very much new to this stuff and i haven't even rooted my phone. Its still running stock android.
I also wanted to know if the above error message is thrown if an invalid code is entered or if more wrong tries are made to enter the unlock code. Its just that if the error comes for invalid code, i will charge back my online purchase. .
Also,now i got some searches to make and learn how rooting/s-off/etc.
Help.
So i searched through the forum and found couple of important posts that could unlock my phone i.e.
1) Getting ADB to run @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865685
2) About GFree method @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2
But i want to try these two out as my last resort.
So can anyone tell me if the error message that i mentioned in the subject is because of invalid code or phone got hard locked and hence even a valid code is not working.?????? (How many attempts are required to hard lock G2?)
So a year ago I obtained the bootloader code and successfully unlocked my phone to debrand my phone.
Now I would like to flash a custom room (lineage) on my phone but to my surprise I found out the bootloader is locked again!
I didn't write down the code and whenever I try to obtain a new one from the official website it just says
"Please make sure the verification code and model number are correct. If your device has multiple IMEIs or MEIDs, please try another IMEI or MEID."
I of course checked everything a million times and every number is correct! I think the error is due to the fact that I already obtained my code...what can I do??
I have a ATT 930A that I successfully flashed with 930U and it works great. I was thinking of making sure it was SIM unlocked in case later I wanted to sell it, so I made a request of ATT for the unlock code but when I try it it tells me the unlock was unsuccessful. Do I need to go back to 930A to make the code work?
Probably yes
I don't think so. Just put in a non AT&T SIM and it's gonna ask for an unlock code

I did but the code att gave me didn't work.
So did the phone prompt for a SIM unlock code and you typed it in, got an error? What is the error? SIM lock should not change when you flash different ROMs yo the phone.

Yes, after entering the code it says "incorrect network unlock code entered"
I had this problem with my S7. I had paid off my contract however every time I tried input my IMEI number to the AT&T unlock device website it would tell my my IMEI is invalid. i contacted AT&T customer service directly and gave them my informatio. They had to put the case in for the unlock code themselves. Reason was since i didn't finish the 2 years even though i paid off my contract it got lost in the system hope this helps
Hello,
I have an old galaxy S5 I am trying to network unlock so I could get rid of it. I called Sprint to get it unlocked, and after a long time being placed on hold, I was told the phone is not unlockable. However, they provided me the unlock code. I tried putting on a different carrier sim expecting to be prompted to enter the code, but that didn't happen. I only got an invalid sim error.
What can I do?
EDIT: it is possible to unlock, see below.
It is not unlockable with some "unlock code", you have to hack the modem firmware partition and flash it to the phone.
There was an online unlock service for $35 at http : / / idoneapps . com and I've successfully unlocked 2 phones with their service but the website does not work anymore, also they do not reply to email or facebook.
If anyone knows the similar service - please share the link, I'm interested too.
I've managed to unlock the G860P for international SIM cards, check this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/confirmed-sim-unlocked-s5-sport-g860p.3128965/
