[Q] "This phone is permanently locked" But still get signal !!! - LG Optimus G (International)

Hello Guyz, I am using F180K which I brought from Chinese local market. When I dial 3845*#180# in network menu it displays "This phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked" but it works on any operator in my country (I live in Bangladesh). I have working 3G connection too. Even I don't have any STk(Sim toolkit) too, which are available when I put the sim card on any other phone. I need to solve this.
I have tried reflashing and converting it to E975 but it does not solve this.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Bump!!

[Q] Arc S - can't conect to any operator

Hi guys
After an operator unlock processing (Wotanserver) this Lt18i Arc S refuses to conect to any operator.
"Could not conect to selected network"
Already do a factory reset, installed an official update, tested with some Sim cards and no card allow to conect to the operator.
Does anyone knows a way to restore the mobile phone?
Many thanks
You'll need to contact them if reflashing a stock ROM is still giving the error.
Finnaly i got a reply. They suggested to try again the same process. Now aparently the operator is unlocked (in service menu the "operator" option is 0) and the bootloader is unlocked.
Moderator you may close this thread. Many thanks

Try another KDZ method. your .kdz file is probably > 1GB so maybe this can work.

Dear olcimanic,
Thanks a lot Borther. I can flash my optimus G by F180s jellybean. But after that i have the problem of network fluctuations and sometimes no network. what can i do brother? please make a way for me.
regards
Clickanu,
Try to flash the latest 4.1.2 for your phone's original model(the model, when you bought it F180S i believe), through kdz. But remove the Sim card before flashing... Once successfully flashed, Please setup the phone for initial setup without the sim card. Once set up is complete, switch off your phone, insert sim card, reboot and search for your network operator manually, sometimes automatic searching doesn't work well.. this is just an idea, not sure, how far this will work, also, always keep in 2G, use it for sometime or somedays and then start using 3G...
Dear olcimanic,
Thanks for your suggestion. Actually i am from Bangladesh (in asia). I found this phone as a gift, when i found it, it was F180S. But The logo behind the phone is from Olleh. Can u please suggest me, how do i find the original stock firmware. I have lot my IMEI after flash...please Help.
Regards

Your phone probably doesnt supprt the network frequency that your carrier runs on
before flash works OK, problem with network was after flash official ROM
same problem here before it was fine after flashing cellular service keeps on dropping

LG G3 D851 shows full bar signals but no service

Hey guys i'm having some problems with my lg g3 d851, since the screen of my beloved lg g2 died after 2 years and a half, my friend gave me his lg g3 to use it as a tablet since the phone doesnt recognize any signal at all, right now is running the stock rom for android marshmallow, everything works fine except for the signal that either always keeps in "no service", i already try to put another sim card on the phone and its showing the same problem, already checked the IMEI on the swappa blacklist and everything is okay, here are a few screenshots, any thoughts on how to solve this problem would be very appreciated thank you!

hi thanks for replying, yeah i already modified the APN settings under mobile networks with the APN of my carrier that is IUSACELL (AT&T México) and is still showing the same problem "no service" or "searching"
I had the same problem, try installing another modem, or send me an pm, I have the same mobile company (right now I'm having some problems with the at&t mexico)
I am having a similar problem with my d851 30g. It isvnot rooted and running stock android 6.0 tmobile rom. I am with movistar (mexico) it will have signal and be on the network and then eject the sim saying invalid then reset. Did factory reset. Movistar sim worked for about an hour and then same thing. Have a s from telcel switched and no problem till this Morning. Did the same thing and restarted. Recognized the sim and all fine. I am new to this and could use a little help. As it is connecting with the other sim and not my movistar sim. Possible software issue or corrupted sim?
Thanks in advance,
Alex miller
