Is there a way to unlock the LG Incite??

Hi,
I need to unlock an LG Incite (CT810) phone sim locked to at&t.

any body??

a code from at&t is needed to unlock your phone, the easiest way to do this is to call customer support on the terms of "international travel and prepaid sim cards"

Thanks, is there a certain strategy to do so.
does this also mean that i can turn my contract into a prepaid account using this approach, I'm indeed going to travel for a long period (maybe 6 months)..??
thanks

If you poke around on eBay you can get a code in a couple hours for the price of around $5. I guess it depends on what your time is worth. I decided to give up a few bucks rather than waste a lot of time on the phone with AT&T, or searching the internet. The ct810 Incite is phone specific also when unlocking. This means there is not one code to unlock all Incites.

I buy the phone from Amazon, and i don't want to activate the line (i still didn't) ... will that cause any problems ??
if yes, can i activate the phone, then due to traveling abroad i convert the contract to prepaid account??
I once bought a prepaid package and i never activated the line... and the telephone still works till now without problems.. i'm not sure if this is the case with contract phones too ..

will the universal sim unlocker (here in the forum) work on the incite?

As here we dedicate only to HTC devices you won't get too much attention.
better to try here:

Unlocking sim card For UK On Usa Phone
Unlocking your phone is just the reversal of the process of locking. It all concerns with a code, which is put into the phone through certain software. In the same way, software is needed to reverse the logic. This process is available for almost every type of mobile phones today. You have several options for unlocking a phone but the best and simplest way is to use such a service provider expertise, which can do the job for you. If you want best international sim card, I'm recommending you to use holidayphone prepaid sim cards. Because it is very cheap and best in all aspect of services.

Can I use any SIM card to activate my Nexus? (T-Mobile)

I added two lines to my parents' T-Mobile family plan through telephone sales and chose the slowest shipping method, so it won't get here until Monday evening, but I'm going to fly out of state on Monday morning. Will I be able to go to Walmart, and buy a pre-paid T-Mobile burner, use the SIM card, and activate my Galaxy Nexus so i'll have the phone up and running tomorrow? If so, will it deactivate the SIM that they're shipping me?

There really isn't any activation involved with GSM phones. Just pop in whichever sim card you want and go.

How will it know which T-Mobile account my phone is on?

The account and number are tied to the sim card. I was under the assumption you were going to buy a prepaid sim for the short term and that would be fine. However, would not be tied to your account and would have a different number.

would I be able to buy the burner prepaid SIM, call T-Mobile and say I want to use that SIM card and assign it my account instead of the SIM card that they're sending me?

Don't know how t-mob works but I can change my sim anytime and my carrier will put my number there no problem

Not if you want to pick your phone number. The prepaid sim already has its own phone number and you can't change it.

The only thing that is activated on T-Mobile (and most GSM-based carriers) is the SIM card. The phone is not "activated." That is just how GSM works.
Unless I am misunderstanding, you just want an active SIM to use with your new line right? If you have one available you can just walk into a local T-Mobile store and tell them to give you a new SIM for the account/line that you just opened. Afterwards, any other SIM, including one they may mail to you, will not be associated to that line. They do not allow multiple SIMs to be assigned to a line. Activate one, deactivate any other. That's the way it works.

No that wouldn't work cause the prepaid sim would already be active you'll either have to use the non active sim that comes shipped or get to a corpo store and pick up a free one. Imma sales rep for tmob

i guess this is a non issue now. i called T-Mobile to inquire about this but wanted to check my plan first and it turns out the telephone sales lady while telling me my 3rd line would be free due to an account offer, i now actually have to pay for it. i thought the offer was too good, but she confirmed it and i actually have a CallRecorder recording of the conversation. Most likely going to cancel the changes, revert to the previous account and return the phones when they're delivered tomorrow. What a **** feeling, i was really looking forward to activating and using my Nexus too.

That's way more trouble than its worth to try and get working. Why exactly do you want to do this? T-Mobile gives you a SIM already... and if you need another, they'll give you another lol.
Prepaid SIMs are different plans and services and are not transferrable between T-Mobile postpaid and prepaid, generally.

They do give a SIM however it's being mailed and delivered tomorrow but i found out yesterday i have to head out of state tomorrow morning. I called a few TMo stores and they all want to sell me a SIM for $20.
As for the prepaid plans, i just want the SIM from the prepaid phone. From what I've read, the prepaid phone doesn't include any type of plan, it's $20 for the phone and SIM card and a few starter minutes?
Hopefully I won't have to fight T-Mobile too hard to cancel the add a line changes I made last week, I"ll just return their phones or reject delivery and go with Straight Talk for a few months until my parents' T-Mo plan expires in August and add myself then. Such a hassle haha.

T-Mobile prepaid sims come with a plan.

But those SIMs are for prepaid only. They can't be used with postpaid plans.

Think of a SIM Card like a Key to your Number on T-Mobile and it's affiliated plan.
That's it. SIM Card in, enter PIN to unlock the Card on the current device, and off you go.
Call, text, whatever.
Internet settings should be updated automatically.

Visiting UK in Sept - Have my Unlock Code, What SIM card / Service should I get?

I'm really not sure this is the correct place to put this question (Mods, please move it if needed) .... as it sort of needs to be where both the UK SG-SIII users as well as T-Mobile SG-SIII users will both see it.
I contacted T-Mobile C'S and got them to email me an Unlock Code so that I could use my phone while in UK visiting my Mum for 2weeks, but when the email came the very first part of the instructions says "you must perform this unlock function with a NON T-Mobile SIM card installed"
Hmmm well since I am still in Florida, I can't do anything ahead of time but I wanted to try and research / find out what my options were when I get over there (flying into Manchester) ahead of time so that I know what I am going to do when I land.
Anyone out there with experience at international travel, multiple SIMs, pay-as-you-go plans etc?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

It's easy to get it unlocked ... just use one of your friends ATT sim cards from their iPhone because s3 requires micro sim. Pop it in turn it on, it will ask for the code, put it in and your good to go. Then just put your sim card back in and your phone is unlocked for any gsm. When you get over seas find a service that has sim cards pop the sim in and your ready to go.

[Q] Purchasing through Amazon, is SIM included?

I'm considering purchasing the AT&T locked version of the Note 4 at full price on Amazon. If I do this, will the phone come with a SIM from AT&T, or will I need to go to an AT&T store to pickup a SIM card and start a new account? I'm not currently an AT&T customer... I'm active duty military, stationed overseas. I'll be transferring back to the states in about a month and want to have my phone in hand and working when I step off of the airplane.

You will need to activate it with att. Now if your replacing another att phone you can remove Sim and place in new phone new phone should recognize as long as old phone is smart phone too. Att won't let you use it without a data plan if old phone was not a smart phone. Also if old phone is iPhone Sim not compatible you will need to get a new on.

I'm not currently an AT&T customer and I'm not replacing another AT&T phone, so I don't have an AT&T sim card yet. Does the Note 4 ship from Amazon with a sim card included if I purchase it at full retail price?

Not 100% sure but I would say NO it won't. They usually only issue Sim cards at actual retailer's location when they program it etc for you. I've only purchased online once and it did not include a Sim at all let alone one programed to your account. Thank you for your service.

When I purchased my S2 through Amazon, it came with a sim card in which I had to activate by calling in through AT&T. But, I was upgrading through AT&T and already had an account with them. If you are buying the full price without a contract or account, I'm not sure you would get a sim card. Best thing to do is reach out to Amazon and ask them.

I bought my ATT Note 4 on amazon. The SIM card came in the box. Will still need to call ATT to activate.
