My LG G3 is running on stock Android 6 Marshmallow, version V30b-EUR-XX, using custom recovery (TWRP), rooted.
The phone is network locked to my carrier. I got a network unlock code (NCK), however, when I enter the unlock menu (2945#*855#) and go to network unlock option, enter the code I get a "SIM network unlock request unsuccessful" error and the attempt counter does NOT go up (always staying on 1/10).
From that I concluded that the phone isn't even trying to unlock the SIM.
Anyone got an idea on how to proceed?

Bought it on contract from carrier, was locked when I got it. Note that I got my unlock code from the carrier, its valid. I also went ahead a bought a key online from a website selling unlock keys. Got the same key as the one from carrier (wanted to confirm the key is indeed the correct one).

Solved issue myself now, reflashed clean stock .kdz, it worked after (the issue was probably the custom recovery or the permissive kernel I think)!

I searched the threads, I searched the google. I can't seem to get it to the point of prompting for a SIM unlock code.
The error I'm getting when I go to "Network Lock" or "Service Provider Lock" is "This phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked."
Picture attached.

hi,
i have soft bricked my lg g3 d855 so i flashed it using lg flash tool but now i have no network & when i type 2945#*855# in sim unlock process it says "this phone is permanently locked and cannot be unlocked" with a "dismiss" button in all choices.
i tried everything reflashing ,flashing just the modem,updating it with lg pc suite ,downgrading to lollipop & kitkat but it doesnt seem to work & i read that this error comes from using incorrect sim unlock code too many times but i never tried it or from incorrect IMEI but my phone imei is correct. and it was working befor brick.
edit : from times to times the network get back for about 4-5 seconds then it goes back to no service
pls help me you're my last hope.

does it mean its a different issue & if it is is there a way to boost the signal???
When i dail this code my G3 D855 show phone is permanently locked but my all sims is working with full signal bars....
After Nougat update I'm continuously getting this message "Unfortunately, LG IMS has stopped" every 2 secs.
I have reset my phone but the problem still persists.
I also tried going into hidden menu / modem setting / and tried going into VOLTE / IMS but not able to do that since I keep on getting IMS has stopped error and not able to disable VOLTE.
Need a quick solution.
I have my SIM unlocked for other networks
Any help would be appreciated.
i am having this exact same issue and i see you also had your phone unlocked by asadnow2k so we no that there is some sort of issue with that type of unlock and android 7.0 i am confident that asadnow2k will fix the issue if it can be fixed
##RTN#
You can try dialing ##RTN#(requires your MSL) this will reset all settings and unlock will gone. After this you should unlock the phone again. Hope this helps! But not 100% shure.
any other ideas to solve this??
in case anyone was wondering doing the ##RTN# reset does get rid of the problem but then you are left without an unlock

After reset with Hidden Menu issue is resolved but Unlocked is gone and now device has sprint settings
And Is sim unlock available on Nougat?
Or would it be safer to downgrade to Android 6 using Lg Flash tool?

Infact i bricked my phone but then i used LG mobile support application and restore my phone which is back and running on nouget again..
I bought a service for unlock from ebay but that person also can not unlock the phone on nouget so seems like now we have to wait untill GCPro guys comes with unlock

My phone was sim unlocked but after the update I keep getting com.android.phone has stopped, I dont have the msl code so is there a way to reset the settings without the msl?, ive tried ##72786# but it didn't work, if someone who has sprint is willing to help me out that would be great. Thanks in advance
Any other solution
So downgrade not working as confirmed by ppanf.
Can't reset MSL code since that would mean sim lock and as of now there is no unlock on nougat.
Any other hack guys???

MSL can be retrieved by anyone who has GCPro or any other similar tool? I tried reaching to some folks on ebay and they got the MSL for me however they were not able to unlock the phone.. Ebay guys told me contact next week and they might have a solution for 7.0
Custom rom
Can't we just root the device and install some custom rom...?
Which is marshmallow based...
Is that possible...?

By flashing stock n910p your network is get locked because you are not using sprint sim card.
Open dialer and dial ##72786# and press "yes" the phone will restart and unlock your network.then you have to make your APN settings manually.depending on your network and you will get only 3g maximum speed 4gLte will never work.
If this does not work you have to root the phone and unlock network by galaxytools app.

Does your phone shows "invalid sim" if not then your phone is already unlocked.
Follow the guide i made step by step in link below only if it shows invalid sim.
once you unlock it then you can flash any rom or stock the unlock will be permanent.

You claim LTE will not work but the N7 ports have LTE working as shown "Device Information" page. How is it that it works on the N7 port but not on stock?

Go to settings/about device/ mobile network type if it shows LTE here then it is getting real LTE signal if not then its fake LTE icon in status bar and its easy to fake it.
If you are in USA then you get high chances to get LTE work.

The "Device Information" page is a hidden setting page and accurately reflects the signal being received. The N7 ports are definitely able to receive the LTE signal on a GSM network as I am on Cricket Wireless. I have even received LTE on stock but it is very hard to do so. I've managed to play with the PRL on stock enough to get it once in a blue moon but have been unable to maintain it like the N7 ports allow me to.
