AT&T purchased/branded N6 are carrier locked. If device is paid off/ purchased outright, then you can request an unlock code from AT&T for free. Otherwise you can purchase from several 3rd party vendors for about $25.

ATT Nexus 6 comes network locked. Once unlocked, should work fine on any Canadian carrier. I suggest WIND MOBILE.

Thanks guys now I find out it might be a google play one .....is there a way to tell if its Sim locked? Thanks again

Who has received the HD7 8107 update?

I have T-Mobile USA and have not received it. T-Mobile USA says 7720 is the latest for the HD7, yet some folks say they have it. Do you have it, and did you force it?

...not even the two guys who claimed to have it haven't posted yet....?
Got it. Forced it. Followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415
Got tired of waiting. It was easy and the phone works fine.
Also forced mine, but can't find the article. I'm not unlocked.

Ok, all you need to do is read the rest of the article, especially update two where it states if your phone and setting no longer work to flash the language pack in the same way.

I think it does an auto back up. it's the first step that takes so much time. Not sure how to back it up from there.

That is because you are not able to force the Firmware update that is pushed with this - it is the firmware update that fixes the MAC address issue. Surprising that T-Mobile US are not pushing the update for just this reason, pretty sure it is against regulations to have the MAC address changing!
I received a replacement HD7 and the tmobile rep swears the latest software is on it, I will post back shortly.....

I suspect it will be latest available on T-Mobile network, ie 7720!
Just got 8701 without forcing but got a zune notification instead. Bootloader upped too. Surprised.
Unlocked TMO HD7.
TMOUS updating the HD7 today finally. Got a total of 3 updates. 7740, then 8107, followed by an update from HTC. Not sure what the HTC update did. Anyone have any ideas?
Its the firmware fix that fixes the MAC address changing on reboot...

Restoring to Stock M7 Sprint

I am running VipereOne Rom and now I want to return to Stock Rom, my phone is sim unlocked and S On, please give me some guide I tried searching but they require S Off
Thanks
Nothing (except trying to RUU backwards) requires s-off.
RUU is the easiest way to return to stock.

Would an ruu help rid any remnants of the previous owner? I can't put an sim card in and have it work. Unless it's a sprint one. Maybe an ruu will help rid stuff...l found a user name in about phone.

An RUU will wipe the device and when done your phone should be like it just came from the factory.

If you prefer third party sites. There are some who is offering them. But they are paid services.
I don't know if this is even possible, but your first step would be to unlock your bootloader. As this is no longer an official service that Honor offers, you're kind of stuck. You best best is to try the services at funkyhuawei.club.
Right now Huawei is in troubles, ¿we can have a chance?

MetroPCS should be the T-Mobile version, at least to my knowledge. I believe MetroPCS is a prepaid company owned by T-Mobile.. Just as Boost mobile is the prepaid version of Sprint.

The whole experience across the board everything including the camera has improved. It is literally like getting a new phone. This is a killer value phone now. Picked mine off eBay open box for 280 bucks and after this update it's a hard phone to beat for this price point.
Works perfect, this is the final build.

Seems like it, the 60fps mode on 4k seems to be way better now.
The update caused my Google Pay to no longer work. The app cites that my phone may be rooted or using unofficial software. Other than that everything is quite an improvement.
What about OTAs now? Will they still work when sprint releases them?

No why would an update unlock an IMEI? IMEI number stays the same no matter the update and even v40 sim doesn't get unlocked if you flash a custom rom
Does anyone have a work around for Google Pay after the update?
can i install this on my unlocked AT&T g8?
