OS Nougat 7.0
Bootloader G950USQS2BQL1
AT&T
Hello, Uber Driver here who found this phone in my backseat. Tried returning the lost phone to rider via Uber Customer Service several months ago, unsuccessfully.
Is there anyway to unlock this phone for personal use via carrier unlock or Bootloader unlock methods?
Any insights into this are appreciated. Thank you.

Evening,
I have tried EE and various sim unlocking websites trying to get a sim unlock code for my P9 lite which is locked to EE in the UK but no one so far has been able to produce a code for me.
Has anyone on here sim unlocked a P9 lite locked to EE or can anyone recommend a tool to do the job?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there. I'm in the same boat. The EE site won't accept my IMEI code. I did manage to get my bootloader unlock code for around £5 using a site mentioned in the unlock/root guide thread. A weird thing was that the Huawei site wouldn't accept my IMEI/serial number, and the guy who runs the site I ended up using for the unlock also said at one point via email that I'd given him an incorrect IMEI number. I insisted I hadn't and he eventually sent me my unlock code - not sure what to make of that.
Hi,
That's a weird one! I haven't been having that issue. My issue so far is none of these unlock code companies have been able to provide a code...
I went into town today and went in a few mobile phone unlock/repair places. Most were able to get a code which would have been pointless but one guy said that he could hook it up to his computer and unlock it that way. It was a case of "no unlock, no fee" so I went for it.
I paid £15 ad he unlocked it successfully ?
From my experience, getting someone to hook it up to their computer to unlock is the way forward!
I left the phone with the guy (after noting down the imei beforehand) and went back 30 mins later where it was unlocked waiting for me.
Popped in my partners ID Sim in and it picked up the network straight away!
Happy customer!
Go find someone who can hook it up to a pc for you! There are remote options but I don't entirely trust them.
Good luck!!!

+one for this.
Followed this - https://www.dc-unlocker.com/huawei-android-hisilicon-unlock-guide
But instead of letting the program unlock the sim I paid for just 4 credits (4 euros) to read the unlock codes, then when you put the wrong sim in the phone asks for the NCK code.

Hello,
I just acquired a new 'Huawei Ascend XT' phone which is sim locked to AT&T. I am currently in the process of unlocking the boot loader and rooting the phone.
I was wondering is there any tool available to Carrier / imei unlock this phone after I have rooted it (or may be even befor rooting it)?
Thanks.
I'm fairly certain you just need to change the apn settings manually.. need to do something weird to bring up the option to add/edit, believe it's holding down the tasks button
Without being carrier unlocked, the phone can only be used on AT&T Prepaid, AT&T, or AT&T based MVNOs. These days AT&T won't give you an unlock code unless you use the phone on AT&T Prepaid for 6 months. You can check eBay to see if any unlockers will sell you an unlock code for a few bucks. Only buy from sellers who have a money back guarantee if their unlock code fails.

Bought 2nd-Hand
I would like to ask if there is any way to carrier unlock. I bought this phone for 20$ on offer up. But when I contacted at&t to request unlock they said it has to be used for 6 months. For me that does not work, as I am already with tMobile and bought the XT for a second phone because of the large device support. I actually love the phone, but as is it is just sitting around. If anyone has or has heard of a way to accomplish an unlock please p.m. Me.or answer in forum. Thanks in advance.
Ps. phone is already bootloader unlocked and rooted with magisk 14.0. And latest TwRP.
Hi bought the essential phone from Sprint and paid off the next day. I want to unlock the bootloader to be used on att. I want to know if the phone gets updates or not once it is unlocked. Please advice.

Bootloader and carrier phone unlocks are 2 different things. Unlock bootloader to install custom roms. Unlock phone to use other carriers networks. Even if you unlock your bootloader but your phone is still locked to Sprint then you can't use it on AT&T network. You need Sprint to unlock your phone first but your phone has to be active with them for 50 days to be eligible for unlocking your phone.
Can a Galaxy S7 Build: G930PVPU6BR02 be unlocked? It is paid for and Sprint says they have done all they could on their side and it is listed as unlocked. It isn't unlocked and it's not blacklisted. So where do I go to pay someone to get this unlocked? Thanks in advance to any feedback/help.

what carrier are you going to be using with it, I know that once you're on Sprint's most recent firmware then ur stuck using their rom, which you can still root and have it unlocked, which all the unlocking procedures requires you be rooted first so you may want to get that accomplished beforehand. there are services on ebay that range from 10-30$ where they have to remote in to ur usb hub to unlock it. I heard good things about idoneapps and they have a simple process which I have not tried this myself as I didn't want to spend the 30$ for the service.
Thanks for input. What i need now is to get it on xaa firmware.
Does the bootloader need to be locked for a V20 to be sim unlocked? I'm looking to buy a service on eBay to unlock my V20 but I'm wondering what is needed for me to be unlocked, like a locked bootloader or rooted
Any help would be appreciated

I think T-mobile's (h918) unlock app checks safetynet (can probably be fooled by setting it in magisk hide). Other models that ask for an actual unlock code it probably doesn't matter.

Yeah I think as long as I flash a stock rom I'd be fine, but I still have yet to find a good service that isn't $70.
