Is there currently a method to sim unlock the T-Mobile variant without using the T-Mobile app? The phone is rootable with the original firmware still installed.

Sim lock has nothing to do with bootloader lock.
You'll need a code from sprint to unlock your sim. Or buy one from somewhere online. You'll need to provide your IMEI #.
Afterwards you can use any sim, no need to flash any roms. However, the sprint variant is limited to band 4 LTE.
Ok, soo how can i tell if my droid 3 is sim network locked or unlocked? i ask because i recently had to sbf and now when i insert a sim card it just says invalid sim, but before the sbf it would say "enter sim network unlock pin".
Can anybody tell what happened?? also i tried the sim cards in my sister's droid 3 and it says "enter sim network unlock pin".
I am very confused...
Can you help, @sd_shadow ?

Sim locked or band locked?
Sim locked requires a code, once unlocked it stays unlocked, even if you flashed firmware.
Sim unlocked only allows non USA network gms bands to work
Band unlocking allows USA gms networks to connect, the Droid 3 requires Flashing a radio.img and edited build.prop (stock), if you flashed full firmware you need to reflash radio.img

I mean sim lock. I never entered a code. The only thing I did was the one click SBF by overlayer. Custom roms just switch from radio off to out of service then back radio off(except for steeldroid ics as i can get get CDMA). I pop in a SIM card and boot up the stock rom it just says invalid sim. It use to ask for the unlock code before the SBF, now it doesn't. I also tried the same SIM in another droid 3 and it asked for the unlock code.
Not sure what happened or what to do about it.

I have an unlocked Moto G6 that I am trying to flash with Verizon firmware. Can anyone point me in the right direction? A google search has shown nothing.

What do you mean by unlocked. There bootloader unlock and sim unlock. Sim unlock just allows you to use another network. Bootloader unlock allows to to flash. Also there is no Verizon firmware to flash because the Verizon model can't be bootloader unlocked which means you can't flash it. Verizon and att are notoriously the worst when it comes to having there phones eligible to be bootloader unlocked

I guess it's SIM unlocked since I can pretty much use it with any carrier by swapping the SIM card. I bought the phone new and unlocked from Republic Wireless and am trying to get it working with full features with Verizon Prepaid. A couple of folks on Reddit mentioned that I could flash the phone with Verizon software in order to get it to work as if I'd bought the G6 from Verizon.
Is there a way for me to unlock my ATT Note9 without another carrier's sim card available?
Thanks
