so I bought a second hand sprint M8, and since I don't live in the US I can use sprint as my carrier, so I sim-unlocked my phone and I'm now with a gsm carrier from my country, my phone is rooted and is running fluentROM v2.0, I wanted to know how to get rid of the username, it is not my username and I don't have access to the sprint network either, any help is appreciated
Hi I bought an unlocked, Verizon branded Moto X Developer Edition which I intended to use on Koodo in Canada, which runs on the Telus network. When I put my sim card in it has trouble connecting to the network. It connects for a couple of minutes, and then loses the signal for a couple minutes, then picks it up again and so on. It's like it is connecting to cell towers other than Koodo/Telus and cant use them.
I have tested the sim card in another phone and it is fine. I have spent a significant amount of time with Koodo customer support and it has become obvious the problem is with the phone. It doesn't matter if I have it set to global or LTE/GSM and connect to Koodo that way, both have the same result.
Has anybody run into a similar problem? I absolutely love the phone and would hate to find out that I can't use it. I live in London, Ontario and shouldn't have any issues with coverage.
Thanks
I have The exact same problem with a moto X from ATT trying it on Koodo. Maybe flashing the Telus rom or dev rom on it could work. Mine is in 4.4.4 with ATT so I can't unlock the boot loader to do that but maybe you can...

Have you tried manually entering the APN settings?
The Verizon XT1060 (Dev Edition, or non-Dev Edition) is SIM unlocked out of the box. So forcing to GSM mode should work, as long as the APN settings are right.
As a side note, to use a T-Mobile USA Sim, I've had to manually enter the APN settings on my Dev Ed VZW X.

Any help with this.
Thanks
I can use it in Serbia and gsm and lte works fine. I've noticed that every time when I reset phone it shows notification that it's not verizon sim but when you dismiss that notification it will not appear untill next reset.
I recently bought a supposedly unlocked T-Mobile LG G6, but somehow my Verizon SIM card isn't working on it. The previous owner installed the T-Mobile unlock app and successfully unlocked it, so I'm really just not understanding what's going on. I tried to do a factory reset and restart the phone with my new SIM, tried to unlock it again (it says it's already permanently unlocked), etc. Help/advice would be much appreciated!!
is the VZW sim card already activated?
did you try using TMO sim card and see if its working with that?
try with LTE only mode with VZW.
Your tmobile branded G6 might not have all the CDMA bands to work with Verizon.
Verizon still uses CDMA.
If the phone is really unlocked, it will work on AT&T, Crickett, T-Mobile and most GSM networks.
I'd have a quick question I have currently been using the phone on T-Mobile networks is it possible to install a custom Sprint variant rom and then be able to activate the phone on Sprint networks ?
I recently read where Sprint is still not activating any non Sprint phones on their network at this time , I know this is not a global phone and it has a good I EMI number and SIM card but I do not know about having a valid ES n in number or if that is even possible on this Variant . Any help on this matter greatly appreciated
