Evening gents,
I wanted to carrier unlock my phone, so I purchased a code from an unlocking site, entered 2945#*802# , then I tapped Network Unlock but I get a message saying "this phone is permanently locked and cannot be unlocked". The phone is brand new and on O2 (uk network) I have never attempted this before, the only thing I have done to the phone recently is root it.
Anyone got any ideas or have I just wasted £7.
Many thanks,
Ady.

Hi all,
I'm new to this board.
I tried to unlock this phone with the app for unlocking which In sent to the phone thru Bluetooth.
I ran it first time, and although it said unlocked, I did not see it, as it was hidden under the window, so I ran it a second time, then it showed an error message.
So when I closed all, I then saw the successful unlock return.
But immediately, the phone started showing: "Service Provider Locked, Pls input unlock code"
Now even the Orange SIM cannot work anymore, also showing locked.
The phone is locked to Orange UK.
Here are data's I get when I Power the phone:
R 1.05.10
G 1337.39
D1.06.00 WWE
It is locked to Orange UK.
Pls can some1 tell me how to successfully unlock this phone ????
Thanks,
dannyogolo

Hi,
I just unlocked my LG G2 D803 "originally with rogers" (CAN) using a unlock code that I purchased over the net.
Bell Sim Card now loaded and activated.
Once I restart the phone it says No Service..
I set the APN correctly
Still nothing, and it just keeps looking for the network. Oddly I receive a "New voice mail" notification.. I try and click it and just get.. Warning, emergency calls only.
What could be the issue?
Would downloading a custom rom and installing a new modem do any good?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks guys
Sincerely,
Royce
For me when I unlocked my phone I had to enter the unlock code twice for the phone to unlock my D803... Just check from the secret menu... All options should say a message about being not personalized

Every one in that "secret menu" says my phone is not personalized. I'm pretty sure this means the phone is unlocked. I noticed other people having the exact same issue after unlocking their phone. Still cant find any solutions.
Solved...
The phones been blacklisted.
Anyone who is having similar issues.. this is most likely the case.
Hi guys, i hope you can help me with this one.
I bought a D802 from AliExpress, but when i tried entering my sim i found out it couldn't get any signal even though it works just fine on my nexus 4.
i tried 2945#*802# to check the sim unlock process and got the next message: "The phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked".
I can't enter an unlock code even if i want to. It doesn't give me the option. i can only dismiss the message.
I tried factory reset, rom switching, and radio flashing, none of them worked.
I opened a dispute in Aliexpress, but in the meanwhile i want to try and unlock it anyway, and maybe save the trouble of buying a new one and wait for a month all over again.
Can anyone help and maybe knows how to bypass it?
Hi,
I recently bought this Sprint G6 from my friend as he said it's already unlocked and can use any sim.
It work fine except when i reboot the device, it run "Confirguring device" then stuck at step 1 for a while then just close and said "please contact your carrier to config the device".
It's kinda annoying, is there anyway to get rid of that? Also, can i flash TMobile rom to my Sprint G6?
If you enter ##brand# on the dialer it removes the sprint branding which might get rid of that issue too as long as the sim card is removed when you enter that code. Note it does reboot the device but none of the user settings are reset or removed just the carrier specific stuff.

It should work just the same if you're outside the U.S.
I just got an LS997 V20 and so far I'm really liking it.
However, since I'm using it in the UK, I needed to network unlock it. after doing this, I hoped that I could use my simcard, however (as you can see in the added image) it still shows a simcard error. the simcard works, however since in my other phone its being recognised.
I think I read somewhere that the sprint ROM blocks simcards that aren't Sprint. I tried to unlock the bootloader and fastboot, but haven't been able since I accidentally installed the latest updates. is there any solution available or so that can fix it without needing root or the bootloader unlocked? I really want to use this V20 as a phone and not as just a camera and mp3 player
Is there any way to fix it?

If you have updated your phone to August OTA. Then you will be left with no other option than to purchase a sim unlock.

I already bought a network unlock that went via an app. I bought it from lgsimunlock.com . Any other ideas? I'm not even sure if that network unlock worked...
