Are there any sim unlocked ROMs available?

Are any of the ROMs in this thread sim unlocked? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=935605
Or does the lock have nothing to do with the ROM itself?

The sim lock has nothing to do with the OS (actually, I think it has more to do with another part of the firmware like the radio, someone please correct me if I'm wrong). In order to sim unlock your phone, you have to get the imei # and contact your carrier for the sim unlock code.

[Q] how to know if my phone is T-MOBILE (UK) or (USA)

guys it's my first post here..
i installed a custom rom on my motorola defy without taking a backup of stock rom. now, after installing a jellybean custom rom my defy is asking for a SIM unlock network PIN.
I searched over internet that flashing a stock rom again may unlock my phone. but i have no idea which stock rom to flash?
so, if i come to know about t-mobile uk or usa version than i can download the respective stock rom for motorola defy.
i am providing the following information that might be helpful and identifying whether it's usa or uk.
MB525
IMEI 3515 7304 0228 877
MSN LO26QG7SMR
MKQ7 334411B11
FCC ID IHDP56LC3

Don't post imei/etc online. The only way that your defy is asking for SIM unlock code is that if it wasn't ever fully unlocked(only soft unlocked).
It will NOT get magically unlocked by a stock rom.
You can search for soft SIM unlock for defy which will need to be done after every rom installation, or obtain the unlock code online(paid).

Pure Edition Owners Please Help Trying to Unlock VZW and ATT Moto X 2nd Gen

Those of you who own Pure Edition Moto X 2014, if you could help me with some info from your devices it may give insight into unlocking the VZW and AT&T Moto X 2014.
If you could, run fastboot oem get_unlock_data and let me know if the first part of the bootloader unlock data (BUD) before the first # is your IMEI followed by a zero or something else. You don't need to tell me your IMEI of course, just whether or not the first part is your IMEI or your IMEI plus some number and if so, is the number zero?
Or is the first part of the BUD your MEID followed by 2 zeros? You don't need to tell me your MEID of course, just whether or not the first part is your MEID or your MEID plus some numbers and if so, are the numbers zero?
Thanks so much to all who help!!!!!!

Just wanted to emphasize again that I am not asking anyone for their IMEI or MEID. If you can help, I would really appreciate it!!

I was flashing kitkat back onto my Moto X today, thought I would try this since I was in the bootloader anyways.
It was not my IMEI followed by a number. I don't have an MEID.
I doubt it would be something that obvious anyways.

Thanks! When you say you don't have a MEID, do you see an IMEI SV in your settings? Do you have a SIM card in your device?
So is the first part of your BUD not related to the IMEI at all?

I do have an IMEI SV, but I see nothing about an MEID. I do have a SIM in my device. The MEID field was blank when I did a fastboot getvar all as well.
Yeah, I don't see any correlation between the first part of the BUD and the IMEI.

Would be interesting what device variant, rom version and bootloader status you have.
But it is a very localized problem, maybe users from your country with the same provider cards can help.

.
Moto G4 plus XT1643
Stock ROM
Build number NPJS25.93-14-18
Unlocked bootloader

My Moto G4 Plus did not recognize the SIM due to poor physical contacts. A single layer of clear shipping tape to the top of the SIM card made it a tiny bit more snug in the slot and then it worked.
