Hi guys, I'm getting a carrier locked G2 (mobiltel Bulgaria) and I was wondering what to expect - are they locking the bootloader and if so - can it be safely unlocked and then brought back to stock if I need warranty repair? Is it possible to unlock the device and use it on different carriers?

I purchased LG G2 D800 (32gb) locked to AT&T network. I wanted to unlock it with a code and tried various webstites - 3 of them replied that they cannot offer any support, 2 emailed me back with an unlock code. Codes from those 2 different websites were the same, however it did not work - I now have the last attempt left to unlock it. I tried through one of the 'shops' as well, but they couldn't help either. Can you please advise if you have a reliable way of unlocking or obtaining a code for unlocking? Is there any other way to unlock this phone? Maybe at least a way of bringing the count of tries back to 1? I also tried ringing AT&T but they could not help, as I did not have an account with them - I'm stuck.
Thanks for any help or suggestions you may have,
Problem with unlocking LG G2 D800

Someone local to me is selling their brand new LG G6, which was sent out as a replacement phone on their O2 contract. I just wanted to check if there's likely to be any problems, if I decide that I'd like to root and flash with a European non branded rom? I'm guessing that non branded roms will receive updates sooner?
I dont think so that there should be a problem because I bought my G6 in Orange Slovakia and flashed OPEN EU rom which works fine, I also unlocked bootloader and rooted my phone, no problems so far TWRP working aswell. Model: H870
That's good to know. Thanks!
I wonder if there's a way to flash a stock EU rom, then the LG bootloader too. Just in case a warranty claim is needed.
I'm on O2 UK H870. Yes you can unlock bootloader and root.
I'm new to a lot of this stuff. If you have unlocked att lg g6 phone by carrier code why can't you load any g6 rom on it. Or are there more specific chipsets

There's a difference between Sim unlocking (which is what you have; carrier unlocked Sim), and Bootloader unlocking (installing custom rooms; AOSP, etc). Unfortunately, the only G6's that can have Bootloader unlocking is the international version, but others like TMobile, I do believe have root access.. So for AT&T models, we're out of luck and it will probably not get a Bootloader unlocked but (((maybe))) in the future, we will have root.
Hello,
I just acquired a new 'Huawei Ascend XT' phone which is sim locked to AT&T. I am currently in the process of unlocking the boot loader and rooting the phone.
I was wondering is there any tool available to Carrier / imei unlock this phone after I have rooted it (or may be even befor rooting it)?
Thanks.
I'm fairly certain you just need to change the apn settings manually.. need to do something weird to bring up the option to add/edit, believe it's holding down the tasks button
Without being carrier unlocked, the phone can only be used on AT&T Prepaid, AT&T, or AT&T based MVNOs. These days AT&T won't give you an unlock code unless you use the phone on AT&T Prepaid for 6 months. You can check eBay to see if any unlockers will sell you an unlock code for a few bucks. Only buy from sellers who have a money back guarantee if their unlock code fails.

Bought 2nd-Hand
I would like to ask if there is any way to carrier unlock. I bought this phone for 20$ on offer up. But when I contacted at&t to request unlock they said it has to be used for 6 months. For me that does not work, as I am already with tMobile and bought the XT for a second phone because of the large device support. I actually love the phone, but as is it is just sitting around. If anyone has or has heard of a way to accomplish an unlock please p.m. Me.or answer in forum. Thanks in advance.
Ps. phone is already bootloader unlocked and rooted with magisk 14.0. And latest TwRP.
