Hi,
I entered the wrong sim unlock code into my LGG3 D850 too many times and as it says here, "Use extreme care during the unlock process, as the incorrect entry of an unlock code too many times during the life of the device permanently disables the unlock ability. The number of attempts to unlock the device is dependent on the manufacturer and model." I have contacted AT&T's customer care and they said they can not help. I have contacted LG but I am still waiting for their response. I can not go in person to an AT&T store because I am currently in China. I have submitted through their device unlock portal 2 times now and have gotten the same sim unlock code, but idiot me entered the case reference number in too many times. I can root my phone and do cfw. Is there a solution for my problem? Sorry for my formatting.

I'll be in Korea for the next month, so I got my unlock code from AT&T. They actually gave me the code without any hassle (which was great!)
But when I use it after putting in a different non-AT&T SIM card, it gives me the message "Network Unlock Unsuccesful."
I have verified the code 3 times (and no, it is not the PUK code for those of you who think it might be).
One agent mentioned that my phone has a date (which is July 6th) that my phone can be unlocked afterwards. I got my phone in Thanksgiving so I don't see why there is an arbitrary date. Has anyone had this problem or is this just me?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated! PLEASE, I NEED MY PHONE!
Idk about using an unlock code, but read this read. I think it might help you out.

I called and got my phone's unlock codes (domestic) however Sprint declined to provide how to unlock instructions. told me to go to my future carrier and give them the unlock code.
I called T-Mobile current provider and they told me... no Sprint can unlock and TMo, doesn't know how.
so I am stuck with legitimate Sprint unlock codes... and no idea how to use them.
Someone knows how this works here or it's better off just flash customs rom and unlock XDA way?
Thanks,
When you insert another carrier's SIM (in this case, T-Mob) it should ask for the code, then you just enter it.
Custom ROM isn't going to help you unlock the SIM, nor is there a working "hack" to do so without a code.
Thanks for your reply,
I've tried ATT, TMO sim and the phone does not ask for sim unlock code... it just says contact customer care.
or if someone knows how to get the phone to ask me for SIM/UICC unlock code... some hot keys to press, that can help too since I have the codes from Sprint.
**i am also reading about Sprint Sim unlock on One M8, so complicated!!!**
If you talking about the following mods, they are for unlocking the bands, which AFAIK is not the same as SIM (subsidy) unlock:

yeah, can't find a way to unlock sim to use w/ T-mo ATT. strange... I have the codes from Sprint and no one's done it? good thing I got HTC 10 factory unlocked this time no such problem later on

If the T-Mobile site says it's blocked, then it is blacklisted. Sorry, it won't work on any network. You need to call T-Mobile and ask why it's blocked.
And the only way to network unlock the T-Mobile S8/+ is with the T-Mobile unlock app. Flashing the unlocked firmware and then entering an unlock code won't work. T-Mobile has to be the one to unlock it, and it has to be initiated through the app.

Sorry but now TMB can be unlocked through reading codes no need for unlock app, plus if the imei is blacklisted @ TMB so it is blocked for TMB only which means if he use AT&T sim after unlock it will definitely work !!!

That's absolutely false. If it's blacklisted through T-Mo, it's blacklisted for all US carriers.
And what's your source saying you can use unlock codes on T-Mo? Because no one here has been able to do that. Many people have lost money buying useless codes for T-Mobile.
Good day, I bought this device to use overseas it have clean imei. But when I put my own Sim card I found that it's carrier locked. This phone is not on contact so I headed to https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/#/unlockstep1 to unlock it. For what I received reply -
"We can't unlock your device today. You've tried to unlock this device too many times. Wait 30 days and then try again." So that's what I did receiving the same decline afterward.
When I called at&t support line they said that this imei is not listed on the AT&T database and that phone should be from another carrier (although it has an at&t logo on the back side).
Desperately I tried to use third-party websites like https://www.unlockbase.com getting error again - NO TOOLS FOUND TO UNLOCK YOUR Samsung Galaxy S7 Active!
Any solution on how I can use this phone with another carrier?
Any software unlock? I will root it for this
I am trying to unlock the bootloader on my unlocked T-Mobile N100. When I went to the OnePlus website to enter my info (serial #, imei, unlock code), it keeps telling me to provide a valid imei. I bought the phone of a guy on offer up app and it works fine with my AT&T sim, but it keeps giving me that message. I've tried contacting OnePlus but they said they needed an invoice to further investigate the issue which all I have are the screenshots of the original post and the conversation we had about meeting up (which I submitted to them). Has anyone else had this issue? I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure it out.
The OP8T also had this bug with the unlock website for the first few month of the phone release. Try contacting OP and see if they are aware of the bug.
Hi, friend, can u tell me how did u unlock this phone? Is there any free ways?
