Im retty sure there isnt one. Theres a uicc unlock. As per sprint unlocks this device remotely upon contract fulfilment. And i believe they unlock for iinternational use only. I dont think the codes will work on this device. I may be wrong but u may have been scammed

Cell Unlocker says they have the unlock code for the Vivid with a 100% guarantee and they say it's permanent. Is this the same unlock code that we need?

That's likely a SIM unlock code, which will allow the phone to work with a carrier other than the one that sold it. There's also a bootloader unlock code that we're supposed to be able to get direct from HTC at htcdev.com that will allow us to flash custom software to the phone, but right now nobody seems to have succeeded in getting that.
As bjg222 said. That is sim unlock to use it on another GSM carrier.

You may be right. I will send them an E-Mail and ask them.
Thanks for your input.
Yes it is a sim card unlock, finally got an answer from my E-Mail

Yeah, most reports so far say that the AT&T version gives an error when going through the process on htcdev.com. (Haven't tried it personally, my phone won't be here till tomorrow)

I did go through the HTCDev.com site and followed the directions to submit for a Bootloader Unlock Code. It does error out say CID Not Allowed. This doesnt surprise me give the phone launched on Sunday.
I'm actually looking for a SIM unlock so I can use the Raider with a non Bell SIM. Tried Cellunlocker.net and despite the site saying they have it (and paying for it) I was emailed a couple of days later with a refund saying they don't have it yet.
Anyone know of a site that has the unlock code?
I try to unlock my Sprint M8,I tried T-mobile and AT&T sim card.
But my phone didn't likes youtube video, My phone didn't ask me about the unlock code. It just simply tell me the sim card is Invalid.
I have tried to use the unlock helper to unlock it, but it just unlock the internation lock.
I still want to unlock the domestic carrier lock.
Is it the ROM problem?
My phone use the Android 4.4.3,and it is S-OFF.
Please help me!
If you're trying to unlock your phone to use it on another domestic carrier, you're not going to be able to do that. SIM unlocking will work for international use.

Hello everybody.
So... I understand pretty good all terms about rooting, flashing and roms.
The thing is that I have a LG L90 with CM 13 and I've noticed today that it only accepts one SIM Carrier, it's network blocked.
I want to insert another SIM from another company, but I do not know how to unlock the network restriction.
Does anybody have any idea of how to do that?
I remember owning a samsung ACE and some guy developed a tool to unlock network just using an APK.
Please, xda, help me. You're my only hope.

Hello the only way i know how to unlock is to ask t mobile. Did you buy the phone directly from t mobile?, if so you can ask them to send you a unlock code which you can input in your phone to unlock. Simple as that.

Hi. I've tried with my carrier (telcel/Mexico). They told me, they could not unlock it. They tried but didn't work. Told me the reason could be because i have a custom ROM (CM 13).
So i'm looking for alternative methods.
Got back to stock and call your cellphone provider again. You can go back to stock using LG Flash Tool and the correct kdz for your phone model.

i used idoneApps gt3.1.5
in this app theres a option to unlock sim and when u click it on the ls991 it brings up a menu to enter a unlock code
now i know this app needs root to some extent but this may work on unrooted also.
that said i may be wrong but if im not mistaken the gsm unlock comes from sprint and its called a uicc unlock which modifys the carrier folder and a few other things to unlock it... not unlock code but again i myself have seen this option in the said app above and it may work ive never put in a code. i used the available free methods.
i see you say svc code or service code rite which is also ure msl which is only obtainable by sprint.
what firmware are you on??? u may be able to get a refund on that unlock code and do it yourself for free

The app requires root. If you are on ZVB or beyond won't work.
Hi if I root my S6 Active will that also unlock it. No I know everyone is going to respond rooting and unlocking are different things but the question is if I root it will it still be network locked. Or does the act of installing new software on the device remove the network lock?

It won't SIM unlock it by rooting it, they're 2 different things. You need the SIM unlock code to use it on a network other than ATT.
Are you sure

Are you sure does that mean that the network lock is hardware on the device and not just software. I mean if I erase all the software and install a new custom ROM if the network lock is software based it should be gone. The reason that I ask is I just got my phone back from samsung for a repair and now I can't unlock it. AT&T and Samsun have no idea why the unlock code doesn't work. So I need to find a way to unlock it without AT&T's help.
Will fix it

Hmmmmmmm
thats unsual.....
Not sure I have ever heard that flashing a new rom would Unlock a phone to any sim before and indeed that would mean just reflashing a full stock rom on samsung devices would unlock them.....
In my opinion you probably talked to someone who had no idea what they was talking about and said what you wanted to hear..
I could be wrong but am sure MANY others will confirm what I have said...

IF AT&T can't unlock it then am Not sure... BUT may be give the update process here in the s6 Active forum a try and THEN try your unlock code as could be something has go screwed up and REFLASHING a stock rom/update may fix it..... A long shot but HECK what have you to loose!!!??????
