i wouldn't mess around with trying to unlock it, or spend time doing it or researching it. it costs less than 3 bucks on ebay
Or get somebody on at&t that has a good standing account to get the unlock from them for free

I can't imagine that if you buy a phone outright that it would be locked. It shouldn't be, you should ring or email and ask if it would be unlocked

Excuse me if this info is posted else where but i have looked an struck out so far. Can anyone inform me as to a company that can an has unlocked a Tmobile g2x in particular since this is the phone i will be buying? Or the o2x ? For my traveling work i need my phone unlocked. An if its neccessary I can purchase one outright if T mobile will definatly give me a unlock code right after purchase. Thank you!
also want to know if g2x can be unlocked if bought right now? can it be unlocked buying an unlock code from some site or something?
Same question. I bought an unlocked p990 and it's currently charging. Will it work perfectly fine on T-mobile or is there something special I need to do to it?

A quick google search shows that nobody is selling the g2x unlocked as of today. Of course that will change sooner rather than later. If you buy from tmobile and pay for the g2x in full, you can request a lock code from tmobile, who will give you the unlock code in 30-90 days i believe.

If it is unlocked, you should be able to pop in a tmobile sim card and use it on tmobile's 3.5g network. You shouldn't have to do anything special.

Instantly? I hope that it is true. That would be awesome I've never heard of any American cellphone company providing instant unlock codes, for people who pay full price upfront. There is almost always some kind of waiting period, usually taking several weeks.

I was told you had to wait because tmobile have to see you have kept your account in good order, as your paying upfront and have no account they should do it straight away....
Im getting mine sent from the states, so i hope they do it there and then, if not i may just have to purchase the LG 2X here
I buy unlock code for T-mobile LG G2x on ebay.com

Don't think the P990 supports T-Mobile US's 3G
can you not buy an unlocked version of the phone - must be places that are doing them sim-free
Don't think the O2X is locked at all, is it? My Vodafone.UK one isn't.

Does G2x supports Airtel(India) 3G bands?

No its not possible at all. You will have to pay your phone bill.
Contrary in what you believe in, throughout all phone history, there has been only a few phones you can fool with the unlock codes, like the galaxy line, and really old nokias. Really !!!
Unlocks go around $13-17 on ebay, mine took 3 days so I was fairly dissapoint.

Well I know for a.fact you can unlock the HTC vivid among many other htcs without buying a code bungling an s-OFF and a little work... I'll look for a site with a faster turnaround time though I suppose

Hi,

Want to use it with a German Provider.
Thanks,

Sorry to have to break it to ya, but sadly there is no way (atleast I haven't heard of any way) to unlock a simlock on the HTC One .. yet

Can't you just ask them to unlock it for you? Usually almost all network operators unlock devices when you have a proper reason. I myself use the excuse of having to travel on another country for them to unlock it for me.

Always. There's usually a fee but it is still usually cheaper to pay to have it unlocked than to pay extortionate roaming fees in Europe/wherever.
Tried 4 online sites but no one that i have tried has the unlock codes. I am on 3 UK and have to wait 30 days for them to do it. Not much use when I am going to San Francisco very soon.

Hi,
Many carriers like at and t , verizon offer a very low price for HTC ONE. The price was very reasonable too. But if i buy one (locked - contracted) and unlock it, will it work in India with airtel, idea etc?
It just costs 300USD for a 64GB HTC ONE for a 2 year contacted phone. Factory unlocked and third person unlocked are very pricey ( 400$ ) . So , if i buy one, will it work if i unlock it? If so, how do i unlock it?
Thank You
Hoping For an answer soon .
Sorry if im doing anything wrong, im new here ._.

If its a GSM phone, it will work bindaas
If its CDMA, then HELL NO
Verizon and Sprint WILL NOT WORK
The GSM phone will have to be unlocked though.
Just FYI, factory unlocked is a LOT more than $400
A new One will be at least 35K INR
Check on ebay.in... There are few at lower price, and as said by raghav, GSM will work, as mine is working too on idea..... Buy after m8 is released at the end of this month, prices might fall down for htc one

You do realize that you'll still have to pay the termination fee in case you break the contract? Also, the price without a contract is $669.

Its is just a Down-payment for the device, you might have to sign a 1 or 2 year contract with AT&T and use their services.

You can get one for around 25k on Ebay. Look for unlocked ones. These won't carry warranty in India though...

24.5k is an AMAZING deal
however, the phone needs to be a 'CDMA Global Ready' and must come with a removable SIM to work in India.
Check whether these 2 conditions are met. Or post the link to the phone if available
Bought Xiaomi Mi3.. didn't wanna risk 24k

raghav kapur is spot on. I have got 'like new' gsm phones from ebay and swappa ; sim unlocked them either via software or buying a 3 dollar unlocking service from ebay (there are many of them), and using it in India. I have no experience wiith CDMA phones.
Remember, official warranties never get transferred the moment you buy a pre owned phone. [ymmv as sometimes the US store associates help you out]
I will not recommend signing a US contract and terminating it. If you are not aware of how your credit rating is related to SSN and how it stays on your profile for long long time, please research about this. Credit profiles in US are little tighter compared to credit profiles in India. Further , warranty of US phones is not honored outside US.
Although pricier option, getting a factory unlocked phone 'MAY' give you global warranty and you can get service from India outlets too. Please double check before buying.

Actually Verizon will work. Ever since the HTC Rezound (Sensation XE clone for Verizon) all HTC phones made for Verizon are SIM unlocked and global ready. They have both GSM and CDMA radio radios in them. Albeit, the GSM radio only supports global frequencies so you have to be sure your carrier uses the same freq.
"Verizon: 800/1900MHZ, UMTS/HSPA 900/2100MHz,GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz, LTE 700MHz (Band 13)"
from HTC's site on what the Verizon branded HTC one will support. Please understand what you are telling people before you say it will not work.
http://www.htc.com/us/smartphones/htc-one-m7/
Source link click specs and scroll to "network" it shows each m7 brand and what frequencies it will support.

Facebook problem in HTC One M7
Hi,
Facebook app not working on HTC ONE unlocked CDMA phone. Facebook lite is working. Facebook website homepage also not opening on any browser. Phone is under eBay returns guaranteed. Any solution to this?
I have to buy a new phone and out of the phones I was looking at (Xiaomi Mi 9, One plus 7, V40) the V40 seem like a good device with good support inside the U.S.
I am trying to buy a sim free phone as when I was in Japan I had an issue with my phone being locked. I noticed there are alot of really cheap unlocked Sprint V40s on Ebay.
I was wondering if it was a good idea to buy one of these phones and pay someone to flash the U.S unlocked rom onto it. Also wanted to know if doing so would allow the phone to use the bands and frequencies of the U.S unlocked version. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
I did it and it's been perfect since
I purchased my Sprint Unlocked V40 on eBay too. I paid Vlad to unlock bootloader and put Android Pie on the phone. I haven't regretted it at all. I can't say for certain it has all the bands as the factory unlocked model, but it does use all the bands I need for ATT. 2, 4, 12, and 17.

Okay good to know. But there are options and you don't have to be a d*** about it. If you have the ability you could buy one on a credit card to get it right before your trip, use it, come back. Sell it, then use that $ to pay off your card.
