Hi guys, I recently traded my Oppo find 5 for a AT&T note 3.
The Find 5 was unlocked and I was using Tmobile. Although the Note 3 is locked to ATT.
I tried using these threads to unlock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494634
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475552
the only difference is I used an app called Kingo to root. I also dont have the original ATT sim card that came with the phone, I used an old one I had laying around.
Other then that everything seemed to have gone smoothly. Except after I reboot the phone after the region unlock it says "invalid SIM" and asks for a sim unlock code.
Could you guys help me figure this out? I thought it would be a lot smoother and this is my only phone.
Thanks!
You must have the latest software update. If so your baseband version ends with "mj5".
The 2 threads about unlocking you posted worked on baseband version "mi9" only.
You have to buy an unlock code now.
Sorry!
Hello,
New poster here and I could not find anything on any other threads so I started a new one.
I bought a second hand phone that had previously been unlocked. It was originally locked to Bell and then unlocked afterwards. I used it on MTS for a while and then gave it to a friend to use on Telus but when he put in his sim card it gave the notification "Phone not allowed MM #6"
I did some reading and it seems like that means that the IMEI is blocked but that can't be the case as I can fully use it on MTS.
Does anyone know how I can fix this problem and use it on Telus?
If you need any more information just ask and I will try to get it to you asap.
Thanks for your help!
I've gotten my hand on a Moto G 2nd Generation. Sorry I've exhausted the search engine on trying to find out what country this moto g is for. The model on the back says XT1063. It is only single sim. does not have any network branding on it. In the system information, it says Moto G (2nd generation) I've tried ATT sim, Tmobile Sim, Verizon Sim, and even bought an unlock code, but noway for me to enter the code. My only guess now is that this version is already unlocked, but for another country(india???) Does anyone know how to get to the menu to enter the unlock screen if this is indeed the global (compatible with US). The tutorials I saw just shows putting in a sim from another network and it shows the unlock code screen.
and if it is indeed a different country, may I ask which one so I can somehow try to sell it.
Thanks XDA.
in my experience i restored to stock using the tools provided in the developers section, after this my radio was not working (im from mexico) and my guess is because the radio i flashed is from US, later i restore to stock again but with radio from Mexico and got my sim working that way.
So what i trying to say is: why dont you try flashing to stock using radio for you're country, than try using the sim.
i used this

btw. i own XT1063 also.
This has been a long back and forth conundrum that neither Sprint, Cricket or LG seem to be able to help me with. I purchased a used Sprint G4 on ebay and had it domestic sim unlocked over the phone with Sprint. I used it perfectly with a Cricket sim (mms and lte worked perfectly). A few days later I had to send it in to LG repair for the infamous "camera has stopped worrking" error. After getting the phone back (same IMEI), the phone no longer recognizes the Cricket sim card. It recognized a Sprint sim card that LG returned it with but not the original Cricket sim. I've contacted Sprint and they've repeatedly confirmed (after many insistent calls and chat messages) that the phone is unlocked. Cricket tells me everything is fine on their end, and LG tells me to ask Sprint to unlock it or provide an unlock code. Completely at a loss so any input would be extremely appreciated.

Don't know if I have that option. Lg returned the phone upgraded with Marshmallow zva
edit* Going to try to revert back to zv6 and see if it'll work then.
you have to be on zv6 first I'm not to familiar yet with this phone. I unlocked mine and had the invalid sim I had to do the build prob edit and then it took care of invalid sim but u have to be rooted to do the prop edit
** update
-Reverted back to ZV6 and rooted using this : howto-downgrade-to-zv6
-Then followed the sim unlock guide mentioned here: Sim unlock guide
Only getting 3G but calls are working perfectly which is much better than nothing. I'm going to read around the Sim unlock guide to see if I can tweak a couple settings to get MMS and LTE working.

I had to dl a 3rd party mms app i used chomp. And play arou d in radio settings under mobile networks.
So I bought a G Flex on swappa after having owned 2 previously (its a pretty sweet phone :good: ). This phone is branded as a D959 on the body but the software running on the device is D95020F on KK. It wouldn't be such a big deal but I'm unable to carrier unlock it as I get the message " This phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked" when I enter the number "2945#*950#".
My question is will I be able to use the LG Flash tool to flash a D959 stock rom and have a working phone or am I SOL and should I return it?
Extra info:
-I tried to flash a recovery using Freedom Flex but I dont believe it is compatible with the D950 KK variant. I believe it doesn't have a custom recovery.
-The phone arrived rooted.
Im having the same problem
is there a solution i can follow?
