I got prepaid sprint g flex called sprint and got the MSL code. I put in different sim and didn't prompt me to enter the code. I was wondering does anyone know where to input code?

Never mind found out msl code wont unlock this phone and they wont unlock it either even though they're suppose by law now. They told they don't know how.

Is there any unlock code generator or firmware that unlocks G1?
you can just call your carrier and they can unlock your phone for you, just tell them your going out of the country

call your carrier for the unlock code. say you want to send your phone overseas as a present or you are about to travel overseas. they would gladly send u an unlock code within 24hrs.
Once it's unlocked, does that mean that it can be used on AT&T and T-Mobile? Or does it only use it for that one?
Thanks for the info, y'all.
Unlocked means you can use a sim card from any carrier you want
Problem is that I'm not in USA, and do not have T-Mobile sim (number, contract, whatever). Thank you anyway I'll continue to search.

Well you can pay to get an unlock code. Or if you know anyone in the states that has T-Mobile and give them you IMEI number and have them get you an unlock code. There is no generator or firmware that will do it as of now.
I've used code from htccode.com and it works! Thank you!
So,
I think, that SIM unlock procedure is the same as for Droid 2 Global.
Phone must be activated on Verizon.
Phone must be activated for global using.
Then can phone accept unlock code.
Without activating phone cannot accept unlock code for other network carriers.
Unlock code can be from verizon, or can be purchased on ebay (approx $20).
Is this right ???
It doesn't have to be activated. The other points are correct.
aha.......

hmmm...so not same as on Droid 2 Global ?
I bought in January two Droid 2 global.
One was new and one was one month used.
The new was not able to accept unlock code - always Code Error.
The used was unlocked with no problems, because was activated on Verizon.
I'm not sure about D2G. Had one, but from a seller on ebay.com who provided Verizon unlock codes -- so of course it was activated.
My D3 however I bought from Motorola Store and had it shipped directly to Germany, unlocked it here with third party codes. It definitely never was activated.
I just unlocked my D3, you don't need Verizon to activate it. All you need to do is to bypass the activation screen using the "four corner" trick, and then enter the subsidy code aka the unlock code.
this is super...thanks

Just for sure, because you live in Canada and use Bell, you're talking about the Verizon Droid 3 XT862 (USA) and not the Bell XT860 (Canada) ?
Yes, I am talking about the actual Droid 3 aka XT862. The procedure would be the same for all phones regardless.

Verizon's Droid 3 is XT862.
XT860 4G Bell release here in Canada is not Droid 3. It is XT860 4G.
Yes I meant to say the XT862, made a typo.

Anyway you could PM me this "4 corner trick". And "subsidy code/ unlock code". In the meantime I will return to searching the forums for this fix.
Thanks

Could you please explain how to activate the "four corner" trick ? My D3 after enter the unlock code which bought from unlock4moto.com displayed a sentence " Your fone is subsidy lock. Pls contact network operator...". I wonder do I have any chance to unlock my Droid 3 in this case. I bought this D3 from ebay so I surely could not contact VRZ for there help. If you can help me with my case that mean you save my life
I have tried 3 different codes even one from verizon and still the phone is locked. The people in verizon told me that they only have one code for my phone and do not know why it is not working. Perhaps the phone has to be in the verizon network when in input the code.I am in Colombia right now and I am trying to use it with movistar. Thanks
Sorry for offtop.
How you taken unlock code from Verizon? I have code for my droid, but this code not from Verizon and not working. And I think code from Verizon will be work.
I guess it was just luck that i got a very helpful rep. I told the that i was abroad, that i pay in full and all that stuff.
Hi.. when i bought my Droid 3 in ebay, it was not unlocked. I asked the seller to ask for de SIM unlock code and verizon gave it to him as good client. This guy saved my life.
I am in Movistar Uruguay, and code worked. No need to use CDMA network to SIM unlock. Phone is superb.
Then I do not know what is wrong with my phone. I did exactly the same but the code does not work. I got the code from Verizon too. when i put it it does not work and it goes to subsidy lock. I guess I tried too many times and now it is in a different type of lock. Anyone knows how to restore it to original. I restored, flashed and nothing still the same.
i am trying to unlock and flash my verizon d3 as well global tech support told me the phone had to b active on there network to unlock there is a code for each meid# and things they do ota on there end also , they told me the phone could not b unlocked out of the country off of there network i am in the midst of flashing my to chinese ver.firmware but im not totaly unlocked i had a glitch flashing and had to restore factory now verizon needs to release again .,or so it seems im tryin to find away around it they only unlock each ten months
The whole problem with unlock codes from verizon is that I bet it's not the sim/network unlock code but the PUK or pin unlock key that's used to unlock the phone after too many invalid attempt but not to unlock the network/simlock. Pretty sure I can get my network unlock for bell for $75 after I've been in contract with them for 3 months and my account is in good standing. Just some idiot rep reading "unlock key" but not the first work and handing it out without really knowing what it's for, I've had it happen on rogers, bell and virgin mobile.
Ihave this same problem i buy an xt862 and a code on moto4unlock.com and dosnt work so i get a code from motorola and la this same that the moto4... So i dont know what to do same one can help me please
Hello
I wanna ask you guys if you know any SIM Unlock tool for my Droid 3 XT862 from Verizon. Firstly, I'm not in US, so for me contact VZ is impossible. I did purchase for the unlock codes from some websites, but non of them work. So my very last choice is praying for any tool that could unlock my phone.
If you know any one, or how to do that, please help me, my hero
Thanks in advance

i used it for my droid 3 and used the guide to get it working with tmobile in the usa but after unlock you will be able to use it anywhere. the guide is only necessary if you want to use it in the usa
the main point is my cell phone isn't unlocked GSM yet. I bought some code on internet, they are all the same code, and it doesn't work with mine
same problem here.
Did you input the code correctly?

Isn't Verizon known to replace the standard Motorola SIM unlock codes with their very own (which forces the user to contact Verizon to get the code, where they would request that the user have an account in good standing for x amount of months before they will give it up?)
This happened to me when I bought a Verizon Droid 2 Global during a visit to the US. No more Verizon phones for me... ever!
I purchased two codes from ebay both works

My understanding is that once user disconnects their phone from Verizon, sometimes Verizon will replace the unlock code with their own code making the code generators to not work unfortunately.
One can put their D3 on Verizon and receive the unlock code (as I understand - so, if you have a friend on Verizon who won't need an unlock code to ask to put your phone on his/her account briefly and request unlock code?). I made sure that the person selling me the phone got the unlock code and unlock the phone BEFORE selling it to me.

I noticed one company offers a more expensive unlock code service beside the standard rate serivce. Not sure if its actually increases you chances or anything, here's the link:http://www.swiftunlock.net/UnlockServices/Motorola.html

I have a Verizon Droid 3, and tried CellunlockerPro for sim unlock code, but did not work. They said the unlock code may have been change by Verizon via OTA update, and can only be unlocked by Verizon. Unfortunately, I'm not a Verizon customer... Can anyone kindly help to use your Verizon account to get the unlock code for my phone? will pay $10 for your trouble. Thanks.

Try unlock4moto.com and see what they provide. If that doesn't work, then that's your only option. That site specializes in unlocking Motorola phones.
Really works

unlock4moto.com really works and they could provide me the code for a cheap price, 6 bucks
also if you got the screen on Verizon Droid asking for "activate your phone" (which would make you call verizon) there is a way to skip that
just tap the 4 corners clockwise mode of that screen starting with top left and than tap android bot in the center
this will skip the activation and actually take you to the phone main screen :laugh:
tried swiftunlocks.reseller

I just unlocked one for $5.00 and it works and less than one hour.
