So, ive tried on my two usual sim unlock codes sites and both failed at getting the unlock code for my phone. Is there any manual method to unlock it?
Cricket will unlock Sim for you if you meet there requirements.

Sorry didn't realize that.
Have you resolved this? I'm trying to do the same. I am in the US, but I'm not putting the phone BACK on Cricket for another 6 months just to unlock it for TMO.

once unlocked it will not relock itself.. no worries.. as far as unlocking solutions I mused mobile in canada but I think you should e-mail them with the IMEI and see if they have a unlock code for it. what carrier was it locked to? that would help narrow it down

Yes! i unlocked my X10 with them cuz I couldn't unlock it anywhere else. Trust me, I've tried all of the online remote unlocking services. HTCCode has the cable unlocking method, for $40, it's not cheap but it's really worthed. I recommended it to a lot of my buddies here in the forum and all of it worked. I've been using my X10 for about 3 months without any problem now hope this helps.
For members who are on the MF3 firmware, what is your experience of Sim unlocking? It seems many are unable to sim unlock. Has anyone successfully sim unlocked, and how have you done it? I'm sure there would be a lot of members who would appreciate the feedback.
i buy my att s4 at full price and requested an unlock code from customer service, they gave me a 10 digit unlock code that worked fine, i am on the f*****ing mf3 firmware... thinking of selling the phone and getting an european version... will see later...
in the past i tested an unlock apk that brute force the unlock code, as it's a 10 digit code you could try that, it will take some hours of key testing, but you will get the code finally and for free don't remember the name of the application have a look on the play store or on aptoide
Cheers
I just did the chat with international care and they gave me the code.

Apparently this works. I haven't tried it though. I have no reason to at the moment.

Ok, seems like an official code from att works. Other methods seem to be mixed. Anyone else?
I took mine to a shop they got paid 25 for to get unlock

I have had no issues with the code AT&T gave me I used a friends T-Mobile card to unlock
I want to know what the best method is for unlocking my Galaxy S4 SGH-1337 MF3 build Currently running on the airvoice network. I do NOT have an AT&T account but should I still give them a call and ask for an unlock code? or use an unlocking service? also from my understanding there is no sim unlock method for the MF3 build currently.
Thanks in advance!

If you pay full price, give them a call and they might give you the code.

First, unlocking the sim card is not related to the version of your phone.
So if you bought it from At&t with full price, some of them they will tell you to wait 90 days before asking for the unlocking code.
If you bought it from someone, ask the previous owner to call them and to ask for the unlocking code. Otherwise, use google, and try your luck.

are you talking about unlocking the phone to works with other carriers? yes you can on any version.
or unlocking the bootloader so you can use other custom roms? is yes, then you can't. only roots.

I'm talking for other carriers. and I tried the *#0011# method and the other one witht the long string of numbers I cant remember but it never goes to the menu to let me choose [1]UMTS.
free unlock method has been known to screw people's phones up. There are several warnings throughout that thread the mention it.
Just go with the options that I mentioned, or use google, such as "Auction website" they do some kind of these service I guess.
Actually, on the AT&T MDL and MDB firmwares you were able to sim unlock it through service menu:

MF3 blocked this, so the only way you can get your phone sim unlocked with the update is using ebay or cellunlocker but at a price.

Yeah that's what I thought the case was. Oh well, back to trying to trade my At&t S4 for the Verizon version. Swappa is such a drag.
Hello,
I am sorry to ask this again but I have an AT&T S4 that's currently stock and runing 4.4.2 and I was wondering if there is any way to unlock it for T-mobile? I tired following some of the posts on here but they seem to be old and outdated. Does anyone have any other suggestions?'
Thanks!

I haven't heard anything yet..did more digging and it seems like you have to downgrade but then it's not guaranteed that you can unlock it.. I bought an unlock code for $30..still waiting to get it so I'll let you know if it works lol

If you are an AT&T customer or a previous member you can unlock your AT&T phone by going here. It is FREE and i have done it with all my phones so far. They provide you with an unlock code and all you have to do is insert the new non-at&t sim and enter the unlock code.

Since you have the unlock code, it will be almost the same thing. All you do is insert the non-att sim card and it will ask you to enter the unlock code. Enter the code and now you have an unlocked phone.
I have sprint LG V20. I purchased unlock code from a 3rd party, however when i insert a t-mobile sim it doesn't ask me for code or anything. Was anyone successfully able to unlock Sprint using a code?
Ditto
I am having that exact problem. I believe the issue is that sprint uses CDMA network settings and the other carriers use LTE/GSM.
Im trying to figure this out too. Im trying to use att card and get no prompt for a code. Just invalid sim card. Dialer codes dont work either.
Sprint v20(ls997) has no "unlock code prompt".It is both CDMA and GSM capable device but is "locked" to sprint. You have 4 options to unlock it
1: call sprint and ask for a unlock if the phone is paid off and not blacklisted (might work)
2: unlock via remote unlock from one of those unlocking sites or ebay listings.(tell them your firmwire and whatnot beforehand)
3:If you are under firmwire ZV7 firmwire you can try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/help/lg-v20-cdma-to-lte-gsm-switch-via-t3602409 it requires NO root
4:you have to be under ZVC firmwire and root your device then you will have us996 rom which will unlock you device as well.
I have a ls997 rooted running on gsm just fine, just know there is no unlock codes for the sprint variant , like all sprint devices.

zvc is arb01, and has no root.So right now, you can't root or rollback to previous version to root. you will either have to wait for root( if someone is even working on it) or find someone that unlock for you using one of those unlocking sites but they do charge quite a bit for a simple unlock.
