Hey,
I'm new to this so help would be greatly apreciated.
I would like to know, if i can remove a network lock for O2 UK with rooting and if so how can i go about doing it?
I got my mates old phone when he got his upgrade. I've tried IMEI unlock codes and O2 customer services wont help cause I dont have an acount with them.
So im kinda at a loss. Any advice would be great.
Thanks.
There are tons of codes to get on ebay for about £2 which definitely unlock,rooting will not unlock the phone,but when you do want to root there is a one script root right here on XDA
If you can't get the carrier to unlock your phone your best bet is getting it unlocked by a third party. I've used UnlockBase the last few times I ran into issues getting my phone unlocked. Here's a link to their LG page if you're interested: https://www.unlockbase.com/unlock-phone/lg/.
I'm using UnlockRadar for some time and they have great customer support for LG unlocking check it out at www.unlockradar.com

I have tried unlocking my discover and I called AT&T they told me that I couldn't unlock the phone because it was strictly for AT&T. Not sure if that is true or not because I looked at unlocking sites and they say that they can unlock the phone but im not too sure how true that is.
Sorry if that was not any help but being as I have the same phone and tried the calling at&t way of doing it thought I would share that with you.
i tried

I tried three different 'pay to get the code to unlock' websites. One flat out said that it can not be unlocked and refunded my money. the other two tried to help me but nothing worked. they all gave the same unlock code, so I kinow that they at least tried to generate one. am waiting to see if I can get refunds from the other two.
its strange - I can root the phone (which I am not really interested in doing), but can't unlock it. Mmmmmm.
Unlocked - WORKING
I've been noticing a few too many people having a hard time with some of the sites someone mentioned. I've had to use one of them myself a few weeks ago for a ZTE Merit from TracFone. Luckily, I was given a working code and move about my way. This phone however, due to limited support has been an obstacle to root and unlock. I am proud to say that I FINALLY have both and even managed to make a working mini-sim after two tries.
Maybe I could help you guys out. I unlocked mine and have it working 100% with Simple Mobile and T-mobile.
All I need is the phones IMEI. I spent hours last night trying using different methods and came really close to paying only to find out the Discover wasn't supported for some reason or another. A buddy came up with a minor tweak in the way the IMEI was loading into the unlocking software to get it working.
PM if anyone is interested. Here are some screenshots.
Hi all.

I've finally found a service that was able to unlock it! After 8 attempt and refunds from other companies.

Is it called the unlocking company or what is it's name? would be helpful if you could be more clear...
I think he meant theunlockingcompany.net, unfortunately they were unable to unlock my H-815AR from Movistar Argentina, tried at least two more services, including unlockunit and unlockcode24x7 without success, the unlockingcompany folks told me to wait a few weeks and try again.
I've had good luck with Android SIM Unlock. Got my unlock code for my G3 and G4 from them with no issue. http://www.androidsimunlock.com/unlock-phone/lg/g4/

Hey i know this is an old post, but i'm having an absolute nightmare unlocking my phone and was wondering if you could please help just by answering a quick question!
Originally locked to EE, I went through them to get it unlocked and it failed.
When you say the other companies failed do you mean that they gave you a bad unlock code, or the way of unlocking it didn't work?
For me they've given me a code to input on the dialer to bring up the box to input the unlock code. However THIS code doesn't work. So i can't even input the unlock code. Furthermore they say that some models will automatically bring up a box for you to input the code when you insert a locked sim, but that doesn't happen for me either.
So when you say that some didn't work, then one did work, what do you mean by that?
Thank you
Hello xdadevelopers,
I recently purchased a T-Mobile LG G3 D851 from a friend of mine only to discover that it is network locked. I am a Sprint user (I know...I know) and I'd like to switch over to the G3 as my main phone. It seems that the phone has no other lock on it since it says it is not "personalized". Due to my friends account being cancelled, T-Mobile will not provide an unlock code in order for me use the phone with my Sprint SIM card. I know I can order an unlock code from some shady website, but that doesn't guarantee I'll get my phone unlocked. So, in other words, I'm reaching out to the forums for help. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.
Actually UnlockBase.com isn't shady, they're reliable and have used their services in the past to unlock a ton of metroPCS phones for my family.
However, If you feel you do not trust any other company, you're welcome to start a new plan with T-mobile and request an unlock after you have met their requirements.
Hi Friends,
I got LG G7 Thinq Carrier Locked and I'm tired up of this network I want to use other network but my phone is network locked I can't use anyother network sim card... Its pretty annoying and I just didn't thought that this could be a big issue for me.
Is there any way I can use another network on my phone? only if the method is safe I don't want to risk my phone so please tell me if it is possible to safely unlock my g7 thinq and If anyone have tried unlocking this phone then please help me.
Thanks
Well as per my knowledge network unlocking is completely safe there are 2 methods to unlock your phone.
1 - (Free and recommended method) You can visit LG customer support or service Center and tell them reason why you want to unlock your phone and I'm sure they are going to help you.
2 - (You have to little fee). If you didn't got any proper help from LG service center then you have to try any network unlocking service provider they will get you unlock code for your phone and you have to pay little bit fee for that. There are lots of service provider the one I have tried is safeunlockcode, but here are lots of other you can do research and go with any service provider you like.
Happy unlocking
My buddy has an extra TMobile verison and I want to use it on Verizon. Is it possible for me to activate it?
