moto e4 sprint sim unlock? (hidden menu invalid sim card) - Moto E4 Questions & Answers

Greeeeetings!
Anyone knows how to sim unlock this thing? (or at least, some kind of intl gsm unlock?)
Really appreciated!

eBay for $2 sim unlock code. Worked well for me

does sim unlocking opens international gsm bands? can anyone please confirm? data only will also work if that's possible.

Open your dialer and dial ##27264#. Follow the prompts and it will unbrand your device. I think this is what your looking for.
Edit: it should undo any gsm lock.
Edit: that should be ##27263# sorry.

It didn't work, it still shows the "invalid sim card" message. For print phones, NV can be edited to SIM unlock, but there's no way to get the MSL code. Anybody knows how to get the MSL code?

So what I've come to is all Sprint versions or any IMEI starting with 99 is unlockable. I've had one guy who sells the unlock codes on eBay said he's positive there's no way to unlock the 99 IMEI phone. Can anybody else confirm this or offer up a solution?

Have you tried the E4 plus forums instead of the E4's?

im having the same issue, i have an e4 plus and i have bought an unlock code but no matter what i try i cannot get a prompt to appear to enter the code. is there any other option of sim unlocking besides using the code. maybe some kind of root exploit?

Could you possibly be kind enough to share how you managed your unlock?
I would be eternally grateful as I've spent over 2 days of research and begging letters to various unlockers and forums without any joy - even Boost mobile have not come back to me.
I'm willing to pay, or contribute to your​ favourite charity if I can get mine unlocked.

Yes. You'll have to reboot to twrp, click on mount then check the box next to oem. Next go to the twrp file manager and etc/motorola/hide/ there is a file named application.xml. Rename the file with a ~ on the end. Then reboot and you should have it working. That file tells the system to hide the hidden menu app, that's why it opens and closes like that.

I have been following this thread with interest as I have an E4 I bought in the USA recently.
I was hoping to unlock for use here in the UK. Boost have flatly refused to help me.
When I put my sim in the notification bar briefly flashes up with a hidden menu & 'Invalid sim'
I could perhaps use that unlocker website but I don't fancy the phone being on a blacklist.
here is where I show my ignorance though, we are talking about unlocking the sim on a locked phone here yes? ...
not an OEM unlock, which I believe is unlocking the bootloader (rooting it?)

Yes, it's absolutely free. You only needs register on forum, then press yellow button "Получить Unlock code" on bottom (from left side) any forum topic and enter in open window your phone model, carrier and IMEI.
Thanks, let me try it. I will let you know.

Well I recently sent my IMEI for another but I received nothing, I had to write to some of the moderator so that he sent me the code.
I have unlocked two bravos now, today I received the code for the other bravo I bought!
Easiest way to get your Sim unlock code
Your Sim unlock or subsidy code is made from the IMEI number on your phone. The most relyable codes come from the carrier that the phone belongs to. E.G. I took me 10 mins to get my subsidy code from AT&T, That includes my waiting and hold times. If they won't give it to you just tell them your going overseas for awhile and they'll be more willing to give it to you. If you found this helpful there's a thanks buttion below. Give it a push!
i just got mine unlocked from the russain forum, they work real fast , its awesome
hmmmmmmmmmmm
I tried the russain forum and I couldn't even get past the registration part. The Google Translator just came up with an error after error. I was getting so frustrated I just gave up for now.
To alexey_tolstyh : Did you get my PM I sent you?
My g/f called AT&T today and told them she bought the phone from someone that had an account with AT&T and that she needed an unlock code for it. The Rep. asked her for the IMEI number and then gave her the unlock code after about a minute. The call lasted about 7 minutes. Wow what a surprise.
If anyone needs a bravo unlocked just pm or email me. I have an account on the Russia forum and my google works. [email protected] i'll get you your code as soon as i get it.

Yes u can unlock it for free but you are going to risk breaking it described here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2285431&page=45
Quoted Text By "scott14719":
Service provider gives a code. The phone asks for the code to be entered when it detects a sim from a different carrier. If the phones owner didn't screw something up via the "free method", the code is taken and the phone is sim unlocked.
The "free method" involves using the service menu to restore a previous version of the phones software (NV memory) that sometimes includes an unlocked modem. It works for some. The problem is, no one seems to know exactly what is on each phones backed up NV memory. Sometimes it just doesn't work (no other damage), sometimes it doesn't work but also caused the carriers unlock code not to work (need to USB unlock at that point), and sometimes it doesn't work and major screws the phone in the process. In this case, people have reported highly diminished signal, or unrecognized sims even with their own original sim card.

Just call your carrier and trek then your traveling overseas and would like the unlock code. In most cases they'll give it to you. For free!
Tried that guide and it did not work! Still get the sim unlock code message. Also the carrier is rogers so it cost $50 to get the unlock code lol

Easiest way to unlock it is to downgrade to 4.2.2 and then run RegionLock Away. Once you're done you can upgrade again and it'll remain unlocked.
I have a 5.0.1 rom, can I downgrade to 4.2.2? also, is that the correct version? I've been looking for unlock codes, but I can only find for the international version.

You can't downgrade to 4.2.2 from 5.01. Flash the 4.2.2 modem, root, run regionlockaway, flash back to 5.01 modem, i747m should be network unlocked.

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.

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.

I think you ought to have unlocked before going the U-way. Most unlocker I found utilize the Tmobile unlock app to unlock which is only found on the stock Tmobile firmware. I dunno. Anything is possible. I'm also seeking to unlock mine... I'm outside the US. So I guess I have better chance. Wish there was some free way though.. Goes from $20 to $30 on eBay.. Ain't no cheap unlock these days.

Not really but my guess would be you have to use the stupid unlock app that comes on t-mobile phones. Try www.cellunlocker.net , pretty sure they have the method to unlock using the t-mobile app.

Ok I unlocked 3 T-Mobile s7 edge devices thru unlock base and this is what you have to do
You have to flash the T-Mobile firmware back to your phone thru odin.. Take your sd card out and make sure to click nand erase all while flashing T-Mobile firmware .. You can do this before or after you purchase T-Mobile app unlock.. I did it afterwards
Once you have t mobile firmware on phone use the unlock app to unlock.. Then I flashed the U firmware back but I did NOT do nand erase this time.
My phone is on cricket unlocked and working
Remember to nand erase first or you will get a error on the unlock app because flashing other software such as U screws up the unlock app.. So do a nand erase
You do have to use the unlock app but doing it my way here works perfectly!
Works perfectly.. I done 3 T-Mobile s7 's so far

Ok I unlocked 3 T-Mobile s7 edge devices thru unlock base and this is what you have to do
You have to flash the T-Mobile firmware back to your phone thru odin.. Take your sd card out and make sure to click nand erase all while flashing T-Mobile firmware .. You can do this before or after you purchase T-Mobile app unlock.. I did it afterwards
Once you have t mobile firmware on phone use the unlock app to unlock.. Then I flashed the U firmware back but I did NOT do nand erase this time.

After entering phone model and all on unlock base, they ended up saying they have no unlock method for my device. Samsung galaxy s7 edge T-mobile. So I don't know how you did yours. And I'm still on stock T-mobile rom

Unlock base claim they won't refund if imei was blacklisted. Does this mean blacklisted devices are not supported? Even if device was located abroad and used overseas outside the USA? Unlock won't work?

on the top of the unlock to be able to use the phone in the USA (and we're not offering cleaning service)
which means you won't be able to use in usa
but please contact them about it
I just got unclocked from a seller on ebay. Presently $69.5.. Before unlock my imei was blacklisted. But now imei appears to be clean. Is that how they unlock? Clean imei and then place a call to tmobile for unlock? If there's anyone wanting to unlock, go for esn cleaning 1st (about $20) and call tmobile to unlock your phone and see if they'll do it for free.

So I couldn't find anything in the forums but does anyone know where I go to enter the unlock pin? I have it there's just no instructions on where to enter it to unlock my device.

There is an app.
You use the app that's preinstalled on your phone.
yea that isn't working for me... I tried it and it just gives me an error code
Is the phone paid off in its entirety and did you wait 40days after you brought the phone?
If you just want a temp unlock, I think you can request it on the app.
So there is a forum here on how to convert it to the international version. That's what I did. And I completely bypassed needing to wait 40 days and paying off the phone. If I find the post I will link it for you

Yes, I paid it off once I got it and I waited 40 days. I think the app is just broken for me.

hello,
tap on the screen so that it gives you option to type your pin instead of using fingerprint.

I have converted to international version but its doesn't unlocks sim I have ordered sim unlock service from https://www.cellunlocker.net/t-mobile-unlock-app/ after sim unlock you can convert to international version. If your phone has bad imei (financed) you cant use phone in USA. If imei is clean it will work with any network in USA
Ok! So it worked! I just had to download the patched version of the MSM tool and it rebooted and everything and no more TMobile logo. Thanks guys!

No, it doesn't but I don't necessarily need the SIM unlocked. I tested Fi on here and it works fine. That's the only other carrier that I use and in my area I'm usually on the T-Mobile part anyway.
