Um, could you please post in a more readable form? Not to be disrespectful ,but i cant understand it quite well....You sure you have a SIM card? Do you have any signal at all? Or do you just have bars but no 2/g or 3/g network?

Most likely a bad phone

If you insert your SIM card and its unlocked, it should say the name of your carrier regardless of what ROM you're using. Maybe a bad SIM card, try the SIM in another phone. If it doesn't work there, the phone might be broken.

lol all i was need is internet settings.............

@edit alright, could You 2xx guys check this?

I don't know if it can work but found this on my disk.
This tutorial is only for my ex p990 but if you get desperate you may try it. I lose my imei trying to flash wrong way, so I found somewhere on the net this tutorial to get it back. If it can work with p880 you may change your imei to europe open (I don't know where to find such IMEI).
So if unlocking depends on imei maybe it work ( I personally doubt this).
1. Connect phone by USB
2. Enter 1809#*990# in dialer
3. Select Port Settings -> Select CP USB
4. Start hyperterminal, in COM settings select same port like in devide manager -> LGE mobile USB Serial Port, 115200
5. Type AT if response is not OK, change port number
6. Type at%imei, it should display your current IMEI
7. Type at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x , where x,x,x... is your stolen or borrowed euro IMEI number
8. Reset
At step 2. you should probably enter p880 hidden menu code and step 7. you must find some eur imei.
Anyway I would rather wait couple days maybe someone finds other solution as I’m not sure if this method is safe for our device.
If you decide to risk and try this I wish you best luck.

IMEI: 352967050008790
Remember to save Your own IMEI because You MUST change the IMEI to Your own after unlocking bootloader! (ofc if IMEI will change the version)
@edit we have to enter our own hidden menu 3845#*880# and there is everything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734330 there is better tutorial for it

If I try to change the IMEI to the one mentioned by reas0n I get "IMEI WRITE ERROR". Showing original IMEI is fine.
I'm on HAS BLACK BLACK.

what is a hyperterminal ???

Do you know Putty? Get this little tool, switch to serial, write your COM-Port and the Baudrate mentioned in the steps.
Changing IMEI was not working for me. (Rooted 20A)

It comes back with an IMEI write error unfortunately. Everything else worked until the write.
OK
at%imei=352967050008790
IMEI WRITE ERROR
Is it possible to downgrade to the 10h Euro Open version? Also advice wise, what is the best USB connection type to use for all this adb and fastboot work? Lots of options these days in 20A.
(tried with the KDZ hack but it doesn't want to complete the process as it complains if it cannot read a cell number or detect a network, then finally fails to decompress the image [which might be a file corruptions issue] I'll try with the SIM).

Imei write error -.-

Damn it... Even with root in can't work? if we can't change imei, what we can do hmm.. I need someone who has facebook and fast internet to downloading, pm me someone. Maybe we can find the solution.

I don't know what exactly happend, but I had the v10d firmware ( AHASBK ), and I flashed the v20a and I got:
P88020a-230-10
I've checked in the hidden menu and it says that my BL is locked
What should I do know? I'm currently downloading the necessary files to flash back to 4.0.3 and try an another kdz v20a.
Do you guys have any suggestions how to get the unlocked version ?
Btw thanks for your hard effort

234 here as well. UK t-mobile phone.
I tried to unlock it using Linux to avoid all the crap drivers, fastboot says it unlocked but the test shows it as locked again:
Code:
# fastboot oem unlock
...
(bootloader) Showing Options on Display.
(bootloader) Use device keys for selection.
(bootloader) Bootloader is unlocked now.
I'll try again with some battery later

Uk sim free 234-000 :banghead:
Sent from my rooted and beanified P880

its certainly something strange, ive flashed back and too testing every different way i could think off,but still have it saying 23400.
its also not anything to do with the build prop where its read from in the secret menu, as my build prop says its v20a euro xxxx

Try to flash the V20A with the LGFlash Tool.
I pass from a Brazilian v10a to v20a and got euro-xxx...
I think the previous version is not importante.
If there is an issue is something else.

thankyou il try that,i remember now that mine was euro open when i first changed from v10F to v10H so maybe its versions before v10h(before they knew or making jb for 4x) so any protection may of only been added to v10h

We can now try this -
GBR V20A_00.KDZ

[Q] Unable to unlock phone

So, basically, I got a new pay-as-you-go SIM and I don't want to buy a new phone for it. I was looking for methods to unlock my current galaxy ace, it's rooted and I have a custom ROM on it- The Ultimatum by The "A" Factor. I got my unlock codes and put the SIM in expecting to get a screen saying phone is locked, please put in unlock code or something similar that usually happens. However nothing came up but when the phone finished booting, I had no service and can't use it for calls or anything which suggests that the phone is still locked, I tried using the *#7465525# service code, but I got an error saying no service or incorrect MUDI code or something like that. Is it possible that flashing a new ROM wiped the unlocking procedures and is there anyway for me to know if my phone is unlocked and if not, can I still unlock it?

Didn't show you nothing to introduce the code?¿
... try introducing another SIM from other carrier... when you boot then automatically should ask you to introduce the unlock code
If it doesn't work you could phone to the device's carrier, the carrier must help you if you finished your contract

I do have another SIM from another carrier, but the screen isn't showing up, I've been scouring the internet and found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335548 , turns out it won't show because of my ROM, so I'll have to switch to stock like you said, before I do that though I'll try that code he said at the end to see if it will unlock. Thanks :good:

[Q] No ''SIM unlock code'' prompt

Hello guys. I have a bit of a problem. I have bought a Droid 3 , blocked on Verizon and it doesn't ask me for the unlock code. I searched everywhere and did not come with an answer. I have to mention that I am from Europe and the person that had the phone before, tried to put the codes more than one times and that may be the cause. Can this be fixed? Thx.

Hi, did you try to leave the phone on for about 2 hours? It should ask you to insert the unlock code at a certain point, even if the maxumim number of tries has been reached.
Is it XT862 model?

Yes i tried, i left it for an entire night. Yes it is the XT862 model.

If you dial #073887* the sim unlock code prompt should appear.
Please try that, if you haven't done it yet.

Done that. Nothing happened. I dialed the code into the dialer application. Have i done something wrong? Thank for the help , by the way.

You're welcome.
I don't think you did something wrong, you just have to type that code in the dialer and when you insert the last '*' symbol the prompt should appear. I tried it on my Milestone 2 (that has never been locked) and it works.
Are you running the stock GB rom or there is a custom one installed?
Did you try with another SIM card?

i am running the stock verizon GB.

This is a known issue in around a third of the droid 3s. For some reason they can't unlock properly. It's possible that you have one of these...

Atrix HD with subsidy locked

Hi guys, I have a problem with a phone from Ebay...
I buy an Atrix HD for unlock but the big trouble is that I can't. When insert the micro sim, the phone says that is "subsidy locked" and thats all...
Know any solution to the problem?
I searched for hours and not find anything...except an manual for the original atrix and atrix 2.
amilkhanzada. com/2012/03/ how-to-unlock-permanently-network.html
Someone knows the "retail radio sbf" for the atrix hd?
This link is the only that I find
Well, sorry for my bad english....I failed english at school xdd (Im from South America, Colombia for be more specific).
Cheers and thanks

Subsidy lock means it's locked to AT&T. You need to buy an unlock code. Look at eBay.

I'm not if it applies to the AHD but it may be "hard locked" due to too many failed attempts to enter a network unlock code.

There are code providers, that can also find the hard lock code, for additional cost, usually. Be sure to tell/ask them about your situation.
You might try with another providers SIM, perhaps it will prompt you for unlock code.

The problem is the insane "subsidy locked" :C
I cant enter any code. The only "way" is remove the non accepted sim card and dial the number #073887* but not sure if it would work.
When I insert the non accepted sim card appear that message automatically (image) and is supposed the window should appear to enter the unlock code.
I'll ask to see if they can help me and tomorrow try with other sim cards :C
