Cannot unlock sim - t mobile lg g2 - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys,
I have a problem with my Phone LG G2!
I bought a LG G2 - T Mobile version. I filled all settings manually and worked until now very good!
I wanted to enable LTE - 4G without success. It seems it's locked! So i tried to unlock the phone with no success!
It is permanently locked! Any ideas how i can unlock it?

I think he was reffering to unlock it at home, free. I'm also interested in this, since my phone is locked on OrangeRO too.

Trust me,i"ve tried at home.It not possible.Only solution is that i described .I have another phone,galaxy ace and with a program from market, i've unlocked(Orange Romania).Lg phone are not that easy to unlock!
Thanks, I had a lot of work but it works!
It's coded in a partition which includes imei. When I lost my imei during a bad kdz flash my phone unlocked itself. So the only possibility for the time being is to unlock at your local shop or order a code.

Well, i was afraid of that. So, what's the cheapest online store for unlocking?

Hello, i just bought a 2-hand LG P700 & i try to watch the video on how to unlocke it, but it seams like the video no longer exist, do you have another proposal maybe?
Thank you in advance
Hi! I just bought a new phone for my wife and I'm confused how to get this phone network unlocked because she got it through a contract.
I installed Slimkat ROM and it's working very very fast for this a bit slow phone, but I can't get it to work on my network (different one than my wife's).
I would like someone to help me network unlock it - FREE if possible. I don't like paying to unlock a phone because I unlocked all my phones by myself & help from this XDA!
Thanks in advance!

[q] urgent help!!!

So i just bought a Verizon LG G2 since the guy said it was unlocked for TMobile, but it wont work and Verizon and Tmobile said they wont unlock it.
People have stated that theyve unlocked it with the unlocked code site, but i tried to put my imei and it says that its cdma and wont unlock it even though it has a sim tray. Even reports saying Verizons LG G2 say that its unlocked but for some reason it wont work for me.
How to i unlock it?

It's unlocked... pop in a T-Mobile SIM. Also, backup efs.

Anyone can unlock Sprint LG V20 remotly ?

When i pop in my t-mobile sim card, the phone does not recognize it or prompt me for a network code or anything ? anyone know of someone or a service to sim unlock the sprint variant ? Thank you
Bump
I'm also trying to figure this out, as I am not able to even connect to T-Mobiles server to trigger the unlock. All that my unlock app does is just sit there with a spinning wheel and say " connecting to server, please wait " , so if I cannot get passed that than I'm screwed cause it's gotta at least prompt me if I want to unlock permanently or temporary. Darn thing just keeps spinning like I'm blocked from even connecting. Can someone who is rooted check to see if their phone will prompt for an unlock or not? Thanks in advance!

If the T-Mobile unlock app is on the Sprint version (Which I doubt) use this site https://www.unlockbase.com/phone-unlocking-service/tmobile-device-unlock-app-official-unlock/ otherwise you might contact them and find out if they can sim unlock it another way. Or sideload the T-Mobile Unlock app and see if it works that way (I doubt this would work but you never know til you try)

If you are rooted, it can detect it and it will stay on the spinning wheel. Only way I got it to work was to restore to stock no root and it worked (It kept giving me a unlock not available until I bought the unlock service from https://www.unlockbase.com/phone-unlocking-service/tmobile-device-unlock-app-official-unlock/ )
Dirty Santa sim unlocks the Sprint variant,not sure for T-Mobile

I was thinking that it was because I was rooted , so I guess I will try and restore to an unrooted state and see if that makes a difference.
I found a guy on ebay who supposedly can unlock the Sprint V20 for $50.

Don't bother. All he will do is already what you can do. Root your phone and use the US996 Rom on it(btw try that.)

is the phone paid off in full? no more monthly obligation? if not that's the reason you can't unlock. it's because you don't own the phone sprint does. NO ONE can get a device unlocked from distributor without full payment fulfillment.

It works fine if you have a rom thats unlocked(for some unknown reason.)
Anything on this?!!! Im about to buy a service but when I pop another sim it doesn't prompt the unlock code screen I heard there's a way to manually get there any help?! Dirty Santa does the trick I heard but rooting the v20 is not easy and I heard lots of side effects

Supposedly yes. i never tested it.
yes sprint unlocks it remotely that is what they did with mine, once I called in they had you run the uicc unlock option in updates. it will say uicc unlocked successfully.
