Unlock sim t mobile - Moto Z2 Force Questions & Answers

Hi I bought an eBay phone from the US t mobile unlocked the bootloader it wasnt a problem.Then I want to ask if there is any option on the flash rom for the EU or to have the SIM unlock network?

Phone can only be sim unlocked with the device unlock app installed on the phone. Unlock the phone first before trying to flash another ROM, the unlock app only works on the stock firmware.

sim unlocked telcel?

hi guys
if i bought xperia play from telcel mexico, and then sim unlocked it with a code from a website, would the phone then be considered an unlocked phone, and therefore can unlock its bootloader?
thanks
It seems that it won't work. I read a post of someone saying that it has to come pre-sim unlocked to get unlocked bootloader

We must tell you the truth: unless the phone was bought sim-unlocked from the factory, you won't be able to use fastboot. Phones bought to carriers can't access fastboot even if you sim-unlock them later.

Hi, can you give me the link to the unlocker at [email protected], I am not finding any sim unlocker in US for the phone from Telcel.
if you get sim unlock it will not unlock bootloader but if you unlock bootloader it will sim unlock
I mean when unlocked via test point

The answer is no, with the unlock code you can use the phone with any carrier like movistar, iusacel, unefon, telcel etc, but it doesn't unlock the bootloader.
The Xperia Play model from Telcel it's R800a, the only way to unlock the bootloader from R800a phones is with software like Setool or Omnius, those softwares need credits to unlock the phone
Here's a video to solve some frequently questions

If you want to unlock your bootloader, you can do one of these:
- Buy credits for Setool or Omnius and follow youtube tutorials for these softwares
- Contact this forum user Alejandrisimo, speaks English and Spanish, he can help you to unlock your bootloader from Remote Desktop (obviously for $$$, he use one of these softwares and need to pay the credits)
- If you live in Mexico City, you can go to Cell Phone Plaza ("La plaza del celular"), in some of these business offer sim unlock services using Setool software (if you watch the video, you will notice that using Setool software for sim unlock also unlock the bootloader). I unlock my bootloader of my Xperia Play from Telcel in one of these business

[Q] Rogers SIM-Lock

Hi, I'm brand new to this kind of stuff. I've done some searching around, and I have come to the conclusion that I am one of the unlucky Rogers customers with a Play that is SIM-locked I can't unlock the BL.
I've seen the methods that Jinx and others have come up with using SETool but I was wondering if, since the SE site explains that my phone is SIM-locked, I could pay one of the unlocking companies like theunlock.ca and remove the lock from my Play.
Maybe this has been asked before, but after I remove the carrier lock, could I access the BL?
Nope, a sim unlock is just that, a bootloader unlock on the other hand will grant you access to fastboot and sim unlock your phone, although its a little more expensive.
Yes you can sim unlock your phone with a simunlock company. Mine cost 8 bucks to do. Bootloader will still be locked but who cares. The best roms are the stock ones anyway and there is no risk bricking your phone.
I have a Rogers Xperia Play; How can I tell if mine is SIM-locked, or are they all SIM-locked?
All roger xperia plays are sim and bootloader locked coming from rogers, to test out the sim lock just grab a sim from a different provider and pop it in (it wont work). As for testing the bootloader, turn off your phone, hold the search button and plug in the usb cable to your phone and computer, if it was bootloader unlockable your status LED will turn blue meaning you can use fastboot, if not, nothing.
My phone also came from Rogers, sim unlocked from some website for 8$ too.. I still have locked bootloader.. But I think that you can unlock your BL yourself if you already have an unlock sim phone.

There is someone unlocking the rogers bootloader.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254416
U can get root by installing the original uk firware, ginger break, up date ota and you have the lastest firmware.
Hope this helps
Thats an expensive route to sim unlock though
wait so let me get this straight.... I have the r800a rogers branded simlocked phone.
If I were to pay someone to debrand it which is = sim unlock (correct me if wrong) , then I'll be able to unlock the bootloader myself right? or aka access fast boot.
JNo you can sim unlock but you will still be locked out of fastboot as it is factory locked. Here are your choices,
Sim unlock is 8 bucks
Or
Bootloader and sim unlock is about 28 bucks
Or
Unbranding is free, just flash a stock r800a generic rom

[Q] Sim/Bootloader Unlock

Hai!
I have a question:
I have a Xperia Play that is Sim Locked and so i cant unlock my Bootloader.
My question is, if i pay my cellphone company to Sim unlock my Play, will i be able to unlock my bootloader after that? Or unlocking the bootloader only works on phones that are native sim unlocked?
Thanks!
It is still possible to unlock the bootloader of your phone as I have a sim locked phone but unlocked it and unlocked the bootloader altough to do this you are going to have to sim unlock your phone with a software like omnius which uses a testpoint connection which gives you the option to unlock the bootloader of your phone it will not work if you unlock your phone using a unlock code.

If i unlock my branded phone, will i be able to unlock bootloader?

So, i have a branded phone and can't unlock the bootloader.
Will i be able to unlock the bootloader if i unlock my phone by contacting the phone network operator?
Also, will these two options do the same thing with my phone?
unlock at: phone network operator
unlock at: http://unlock-bootloader.com/unlock/

Removing the SIM lock (which is what you appear to be referring to) does not give one the ability to unlock the bootloader. However, I believe unlocking the bootloader will also remove the SIM lock. I can't say for sure, since my version of the Play (R800x, the Verizon CDMA one) does not use a SIM card at all.
Thanks for the answer!

Question - factory unlocked H815- will oem bootloader unock etc affect carrier unlock

Simple question but can't really find the answer online.
Bought an H815, no carrier label etc. My ATT sim works in it.
I want to unlock the bootloader (OEM process) root, add TWRP and flash custom ROMS. Will this affect the factory unlocked carrier status?
How is it carrier unlocked btw , at the hardware level or bios type process? I see the H815 comes factory carrier unlocked?
tia
Assuming your phone was purchased sim free, then no, bootloader unlock shouldn't affect it. You can always make a backup with SALT first (bootloader can be locked when you take the backup) so if for whatever reason it does get removed then you can restore it.
Btw, LG's don't support fastboot oem unlock. You need to do it via Official LG bootloader unlock website or UsU (look here in the threads) if your device isn't supported officially - if it is an EU H815 it official should work though.
fr eBay sim free. I'll look into the SALT backup.
I did a bit of work already and signed up as an LG dev and do see the LG website process which I was going to do to start.
So then adding TWRP and a custom rom will not affected the carrier unlock as well?
thanks
