Tilt2 - How to enter unlock pin?

I got my unlock code from AT&T, but they told me I must enter a non-ATT SIM to enter the code.
In searching the forum, the CDMA Rhodium apparently has a security menu under Settings-> Personal where you can enter it. That icon doesn't seem to exist on the Tilt 2.
Anyone know where to enter the pin?

You need to insert a non ATT sim card - start up your phone - a screen will pop up asking you to enter the unlock code - after you enter it, hit "ok".
That is all you need do.

[Q] How to force the sim unlock screen?

Hi,
I have a SIM unlock code but when I insert a new SIM it doesn't prompt for the unlock code.
I don't know if it has something to do with the fact that my phone asks for the language every reboot and it "covers" the unlock screen.
Is there a hidden menu or USSD code that I can use for type in my SIM unlock code?
Cheers

You installed a KK version and have wrong baseband, kernel or something else wrong. Nothing you can do about it except flashing correctly according to the guide here in the forum.
I flashed the custom KK rom and had the same problem. Only by following the guide on how to install KK with locked dual recovery and root very exact, I got it working.

I thought that I followed the guide step by step but I'll give it another try
Thank you

Hi,
I don't have the "Sim card lock settings" in my Security menu.
but if I go to the "service Menu" - Service Info - Sim Lock y shows an X on "network" and a 5.
I think it means that it is locked and I have 5 unlock attempts.
BUT if I put a new SIM it doesn't recognize it and it doesn't prompt for an unlock code
Q u,z
Cheers

Try this? I did this to unlock a ZL (Jellybean) last night (not intentionally, this is just the order in which we happened to do it).
1) Put in correct SIM (a SIM that has the carrier in which the phone is locked to)
2) Do the initial setup stuff to get it out of the way (this is so it doesn't bother you with it again and again)
3) Power off, put in illegal SIM, power on. It should ask for unlock code without anything overlapping it.

I747 - Stock room 4.4.2 - How to unlock with paid code ?

Baseband/modem I747UCUFNJ2, stock 4.4.2 rooted. Phone from AT&T working ok with Claro Brazil (code unlocked) . After upgrading, lost IMEI. Flashed new modem and IMEI and IMEISV ok now. Checked IMEI number, is the same printed behind battery on phone. But now can not make calls. Got message 'No SIM card'. Ordered a Sim card tray, replaced it, but got same message. Phone has strong carrier signal. After reading a lot, I ordered a paid unlock code, but seller stated that code doesnt work in android 4.2.2. Even though, I tried to insert it once. (#@7465625*638*# - have to use it since phone doesnt ask for code at starting). As stated by seller, got message 'unlocked unsucessfull'. So now, what can I do to unlock the fone ? I have access to a hiden menu by dialing *#197328640# , but dont know how to use it. I have read a lot during this week. Did no find any helpfull information. Any help will be apreciated. Sorry for my bad english.

Sounds like the baseband and bootloader and too new for the ROM. You probably need to upgrade from stock 4.2.2 to stock 4.4.2 or flash a custom ROM based on a TW-kernel.

I edited/corrected my wrong information. The phone is on 4.4.2 stock already.

Try this:
Method 1:
Go to the dial screen and press #7465625*638*#
Once prompted for code, enter 8 digit Unlock Code.
Method 2:
Turn off your Samsung phone
Insert a non-accepted sim card (different from the original carrier) and turn your phone back on.
When prompted for the unlock code type the UNFREEZE code provided. If you are not prompted, go to your dial screen and type the UNFREEZE code, now press enter, send or call. You will receive an unsuccesfull message, don't worry.
Once the phone freeze is disabled, the Network lock or SP Lock screen will appear
For Network lock enter the UNLOCK code provided. For SP Lock enter the SERVICE PROVIDER code
Your phone is now fully unlocked!
If you get "unsuccessful" again then hit Dismiss button and type *2767*3855# on phone keypad and try this procedure again (CAUTION! This will reformat all your data!).
Method 3:
You can try this method without the sim card or with the original sim card
Type #7465625*638*CODE# (CODE is the Unlock Code)
Phone deactivated message means its unlocked

This opened up a menu titled "Data", with a bunch of rows : data profile, EVDO, LTE, eHRPD, APN Settings, ItsOn, DSS, Browser, MMSC, Multimedia, Advanced.
not sure If this menu has anything to do with unlocking the the sim card. do you know more sprint codes that I can try?

You might have to unlock the bootloader to change the sprint settings

Any Idea how to do that, and the likelihood of success?

does anyone know a code to reveal the simlock menu?

I guess no one cares to answer, where is the proper place to get ask this question?

Snapdragon 425/MSM8917 without PC

Hey all! I have an almost brand-new LG Rebel 4, LML212VL. It has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 (MSM8917) SoC. I'm looking to root it. I don't have any other device that I can use, only the phone. Any help is appreciated. I've looked at this thread, but when I install poot and run it, it simply says "Invalid Qt version" and closes. I don't have any computer. Thank you!

I have the same model phone. If I find a root guide for it I'll let you know. Have you tried asking in the lg threads? Maybe go over there and ask around also.

Hello,
I have this phone LG LML212VL. Need to carrier unlock. Any help? I had this sent to me but still could not get anything to work.
How can you check if my Android phone asks for the unlock code?
Option 1
1 - Dial the following sequence on your phone’s keypad as if you were going to make a call:
2945#*model number of your LG#
To find out the model number of your LG:
Settings - About Phone - Model
On the sticker under the battery
For example: If you have an LG 610 type 2945#*610#
2 - The sequence typed will provide access to a hidden unlocking submenu with the following sections:
Network Lock
Service Provider Lock
Network Subset Lock
Corporate Lock
SIM Lock
3 - Check your phone prompts for the unlock code correctly under Network Lock or Service Provider Lock. If it does, you can submit your unlocking request.
Option 2
Insert a SIM card different to the Tracfone - U.S.A. network.
You will be asked to "Enter network unlock code" or for the "SIM network unlock PIN".

Good luck. BEst bet would be to check out "cdma-yemen" they are a talented team of Yemen coders. They always deal with Tracfone and can unlock about anything!
