Put in a sim in your phone that's not the same as the 1 you have in it for eg/ your on o2 network try putting orange network and see if u can phone out if so your unlocked to any network if not your locked to that network

I think the lt30a is the AT&T phone. You may be able to get an unlock code from them. I had no problem getting an unlock code from AT&T when I sold my S3 to buy this phone.
EDIT: I read this wrong. the AT&T version is lt30at. Sorry.

yes.
from what i undestand it was bought in uk.

some people are confusing the 2 unlock types
Just in case, the sim unlock process is a simple one, just insert another sim from the other provider and enter the code provided.
Unlocking the bootloader is not possible with some versions including the lt30a - at least a method does not yet exist - unless you are working with the models that have unlocking enabled. Check other posts which cover this topic extensively.

yes i know it asks for the SIM network unlock PIN, i do not have one.
and also i know that the bootloader isn't unlockable, i've checked in service info. i don't need unlocked bootloader for now as i have rooted the latest stock 4.1.2, only problem i have it with the sim lock..

got the sim network unlock pin from network operator, thread can be closed

[Q] [Help] Sony Xperia V SIM Unlock

Hello ! Been browsing xda for few years and found a lot of good info here , keep up the nice work. But now i got some issue and i cant find anything to solve it , maybe some of you could help me.
My problem is that i recently bought a Xperia V, was bought i think from JAPAN , on the top writes on it NTT DOCOMO - has a locked SIM card.
What i tried -
-unlocking bootloader with official sony guide , but if i type *#*#service#*#* says to ROOTING STATUS - BOOTLOADER UNLOCK ALLOW - no, anyway to the SIM LOCK - [x] Network - Unlimited , this means i got unlimited tries to the code it locks it ? still didnt found a way to unlock bootloader
-rooted phone, installed custom recovery
But still havent manager to get rid of that simlock , everytime my phone boots up asks a NETWORK SIM UNLOCK PIN.
Status
Model LT25i, Android Ver. 4.3, Build No. 9.2.A.2.5 ( ask for more info if needed )
I can downgrade to any version using flashtools.

htc j one seeking unlock help

hello guys
i have an HTC j one HTL22 i bought it from japan and it is locked to AU KDDI
i have looked everywhere and what i found is that IMEI starts with 99 dont show you the screen for the pin code to enter it
i had the same problem with an xperia Z1 and all i did was changing the rom to international then buy the code from s service provider then enter the unlock code then flash the original rom again
i have a few questions please
1- does the international rom work on HTL22 ?
2- is there any way to get the screen where i can enter the unlock code ?
3- any kind of help to unlock it or advice would be welcomed
thank you

UPDATE
i tried unlocking the bootloader through HTCdev but the carrier wont let me, i get the CID Not Allowed
can i flash an international rom with locked bootloader and not rooted and s-on ?
