got root on the G1 already ,possible unlock the G1 without unlock code
anyone working on it ?
I think there are 3 possible ways:
1:find the unlock flag then rewrite
2:find the IMEI code and change it to a IMEI code that has already got the unlock code
3:find the unlock algorithm
hack the baseband
Did you figure out something? I got my T-Mobile G1 bought off eBay in the brand new packaging with a SIM card. Probably someone stole it from BestBuy or Futureshop, whatever, but I generally don't care where it came from bradn new that cheap
But now NO ONE can provide me with an UNLOCK code for it
I tried several different unlock sites, including the most famous one mentioned here, but no one can actually calculate an unlock code based on my IMEI.
I tried some solutions like Gevey 3G / TurboSIM for G1, but eventually the phone with a "proxy" SIM sort of "sees" my SIM card, but still unable to register to the network.
I was wondering if any cable unlock solution was found for the G1 already.
I got the phone rooted with the latest baseband and with the latest self-made build off the android repository, but cannot figure out how to unSIMlock it now..
find someone with t-mobile, have them activate the phone on their line, then use a site or hopefully they have been with t-mo long enough to add international calling, tell them you require the phone unlocked to use a euro sim and your set
disclaimer: in theory
all of the above except adding a stolen phone to t-mo actually work [might still work, not like your responsible for ebay origins] and t-mo's great customer service will unlock it for you immediately if your account qualifies for international calling,
Call T-Mobile
call Jenny-Craig
[same great assistance, just a lot more humorous]
^_^
Sounds crazy, not sure at all if it's been mentioned before but try www.htcunlock.com
They claim to be able to get any code for almost any htc phone including the G1, you can also buy codes in bulk to lower the cost, and its paid through paypal, so its kinda secure
Just my thoughts anyway
Oh and if you are unlocked but have no network, try setting up the APNs in wireless settings
Be prepared to wait several days for an unlock code from tmobile.

yup, been much faster than estimated all 5 times I unlocked my mobiles
I was unlocking the G1 for £3.50 using a site I had access to. I was getting the unlock codes back within an hour too.
PM me if you want your phone done.
No in fact, don't PM me as I don't have the access any more.
The website that can do it is Uniquephones.com

LMFAO...GNR
Hi all, I have a similar experience. We have a G1 here that was never linked to a contract, and T-Mobile refuse to acknowledge its existence. I have tries one unlocking company so far, and they claimed they were unable to get the code. Does this mean I will not be able to get the unlock code for my phone at all?
if its saying that its unable to register on the network then that usually means the sim has been disabled or that the phone has been reported stolen and the IMEI blocked
seems like nobody have a "flash scan" to get our SIMUNLOCK code
Thats the strange thing, it is simply locked to tmobile, a tmobile sim works in the phone, and all is good, but it is locked from other networks (asks for code)
Hi to all
I have a Stock AT&T Note 3 on KitKat, And I bought the unlock code from a website and the Code was working fine
I sent my phone to the Samsung repair center in TX to fix the memory card slot problem.
After a week they sent the phone back to me, and Of course the phone is back to the original settings
When I turned on the phone and inserted my T-mobile Sim card, the phone is asking me for the network
unlock code, so I entered the same code that I used before and it is not working ...
Thanks
You probably didn't get the exact phone you sent them. They probably sent a different one. Check for an old receipt, or the original box for the imei code. See if it's different then the new one. It most likely is. If it is, you will need to obtain a new unlock code.
I checked the IMEI number and they matched
I also thought of that it might have to do with the unlock code
so I ordered another Unlock code from a different site
and it turned out to be the SAME Unlock code from the other site !!
Yes there's only 1 unlock code per imei. It doesn't matter where you obtain the code, it will be the same.
I hate to tell you this, but you'll need to contact the warranty dept and probably send the phone back. Again :'(

Do you think this has anything to do with the Region lock restriction ?
No I don't believe it to be related to region lock.
Check one more thing for me please. Verify that the imei of the phone is what you believe it to be. Open settings and in "about phone" check under status and verify the imei is what you think it is. You can also Press * # 0 6 # on your keypad, Press 'Call' or 'Send' as if making a call. Your IMEI number will be retrieved and displayed on your screen.

do you know anything about this ?
NOTES: If you have a Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, Note 2, Note 3 or your Android version is Android 4.4 (KITKAT): All SAMSUNG devices manufactured after the date of JULY 2013 and Samsung devices running on Android version is Android 4.4 (KITKAT) are subject to REGION LOCKING. If your phone has been used previously with the original carrier, this will not apply to you. However, if your device is BRAND NEW, your must activate it with the original carrier. If your Samsung device becomes Region locked, you will not be able to fully factory Unlock your Samsung devices so it can be used internationally. Even the correct code will not work anymore. In order for your Samsung device NOT to be region locked, you MUST activate (FIRST USE) your S3, S4, NOTE 2, NOTE 3 with your ORIGINAL carrier at least ONCE to take your region lock OFF. After your Region lock is off, you can Sim Unlock your device via Unlock Code. All Canadian Carriers are NOT subject to Region Locking. All USA and European Carriers ARE subject to Region Locking. Region lock is removed automatically after you activate your device with its original carrier. Make some calls before unlocking. (Insert an active original sim card into the device and make a few calls to activate the phone and bypass the region lock. Once you've activated the phone, you can input the unlock code.)
Well after reading that I'm amazed. I believed region lock was based on where you lived and used the phone. Like a person in Europe couldn't use an at&t phone overseas until it was used in the states. I was unaware a person in the U.S. had to do the same if they were using it in the U.S. but with a different carrier. My apologies.
You wouldn't happen to know anyone on at&t would you? Maybe a Samsung rep in bestbuy can help you with borrowing an at&t sim and making a call or 2 on your phone.

I tried to use someone's ATT sim and it doesnt work
Also Samsung is telling me that "as you have unlocked the device from third party site , and this is not considered as official unlock for the device"
I might bring the phone to bestbuy and let them check it out.. since the phone is still under Warranty
There's defiantly something wrong if an at&t sim doesn't work. Are you the original owner? If not do you know the original purchaser? It could have been blacklisted.

The phone is working Fine with an ATT sim card, it has signals
it is just that it is not working after I inserted my tmobile sim card
and entered in the unlock code... So the imei should be fine !
I believe you need approximately 5 to 15 minutes of use on an at&t sim card from my previous readings of other user experiences.

Will try that out.. I am running out of solutions !!
I have lg g4 from tmobile with a tmobile device unlock app. It does not ask for network unlock code either with a different carrier. Also it does not pop up the network unlock code window even if i type the 2945 code (ithink). IF i use device unlock app it says device unknown by provider please contact customer care. I ordered service remote unlock they where unable to unlock but they had to refund the money because they could not unlock.
Funny think is T-Mobile is saying its not a T-Mobile phone because they cannot find the IMEI number in their system.
The phone is an original T-Mobile phone, with original T-Mobile packaging, software and original labels with the imei.
The only way to unlock this phone is if i can flash stock firmware on the h811 without the tmobile crap.
am i screwed?

How long have you used that phone for as of now? T-mobile requires you to use the phone at least 40 days on their network and it needs to be paid in full if it's financed. I yours is still financed maybe the op that thread could help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/t-mobile-free-sim-unlock-promotion-t3138438
Can you link us to the App that unlocked it?

please read my post again. tmobile sim is working fine on it. It does not reach even the permanent or temporary unlock option.
T-Mobile customer service does not even recognize the imei number at all. They say its not tmobile phone and clearly is.
1) Does the IMEI in settings match the IMEI on the box/back label?
2) Are you sure this is a T-Mobile US phone and not a T-Mobile european phone?
3) Where did you buy it? (direct from TMO, eBay, CL?)

please read his post again. you must use the phone with your t-mobile SIM card in it for at least a week until its IMEI (dial *#06# to display it) shows up in the "Check Unlock Status" pop-up in the Phone section of the My T-Mobile website. If it doesn't show your IMEI there, the phone is not associated with your account and the unlock app will not work.
I know that simply flashing the unlocked firmware won't unlock the phone. I'm sure that we all know this. But wouldn't the unlocked firmware get rid of the T-Mobile Unlock App, therefore allowing you to then be able to input an unlock code?
This will not work. It send your IMEI to tmobile servers and checks on their end and if it can be unlocked it is unlocked, you can not do it like that.
Right, I get get what you're saying. And what you are saying is true on Tmobile's firmware. But What I am asking is wouldn't flashing the unlocked version firmware get rid of T-Mobile's unlock app (it would), therefore allowing you to enter a regular unlock code that you can get a lot cheaper (like $10 bucks) than a "TMobile Unlock App Service" (like $140) to unlock your device.

Also wouldnt work. That is not a think that T-Mobile supports anymore. It all goes through the unlocking app. If you try it, its probably not going to work. Try it if you want.

If he has a proper unlock code and the ability to input it as though it came from another carrier then T-Mobile would have nothing to do with it. Why wouldn't it work with the all carrier firmware? The hardware is the same across all carriers. Inputting an unlock code does not contact the carrier, right?

This guy gets my point haha. Want to try it out? Paying $10 for a "normal" unlock code is way better than $140+ for someone to unlock through Tmobile's app.

well there is tutorial on how to change carrier, why dont you give it try?
I tryed this, i get the codes (both codes, before and after flashed) from z3x pro, phone accept codes and say was unlocked but still showing invalid sim
wrong comment , please disregard
it doesn't matter what you do even if you can get the phone to ask you for the unlock code is still will not unlock it there are ways to get it to ask you for the code like shortcut Master Plusfrom the Play Store but it still will not work
there are ways to get it to ask you for the unlock code like shortcut.pro .....and samoble....but it doesn't matter because even if you can input the unlock code it still will not work it will say that it's unlocked but then it prompts you every single time it does not work the only way around it is to pay to have it unlocked
Recently, as I have been lurking in multiple forums, I have been seeing multiple posts that owners of the Pixel 4 XL that they bought from AT&T, once the device has been paid off and the Sim lock was removed, the allow oem unlocking option was no longer greyed out. Can anyone confirm this is the case ? And can anyone also tell me how the unlocking process went after the device was unlocked through the AT&T unlocking portal considering there is no official unlock code that you need to enter in order to use a new SIM card ? Was there an OTA update that was pushed to the device that allowed the device to be unlocked ? Thanks in advance for the information.
have you been able to unlock yours too?
I am looking for a third-part sim unlock service for Google Pixel 4 XL AT&T. Search everywhere. I've not seen any reliable service.
Have you found any reliable service? I want to sim unlock a Verizon pixel 4...
There are no third party unlock sites for the Pixel 4 or 4, or 4 XL. You have to go through the carrier you got it from. And if you got it from Verizon, you may not be able bootloader unlock after the SIM is unlocked. T-Mobile and AT&T, once the device is SIM unlocked through the server, the device is bootloader unlocked.

Thanks for the response, I do understand that the service provider (AT&T) are the only ones offering the Sim unlock at the moment. I'm juts being optimistic about a third party or XDA providing this service or we will be able to crossflash like the LG series.
The Pixel 4 XL is not like a Samsung device, where you can cross flash. It's a pure, Google phone. The way the bootloader unlock is determined, is based off a IMEI check through Google's own servers. Not any other carriers. What has transpired is that Google has baked carrier locking directly into Android 10, and each carrier maintains a database of Google IMEI numbers. Once the device is paid off, the carrier moves the IMEI to Google's own unlocked database, the device receives a over the air update from Google, then when the device is rebooted the bootloader and SIM card lock will be removed. This has been confirmed in AT&T and T-Mobile at the moment. No word on Sprint yet, however the Verizon version seems to be locked permanently, unless you got lucky and got a unlocked one immediately upon purchase.

i can confirm, ATT unlocked my GP4XL
via ATT unlock request (web portal)
The request takes 24-48 hours as it is sent electronically via ATT to Google
unlike Samsung devices which usually are instant.
Call ATT and ask specifically for TECH SUPPORT (dont waste your time w/any other department)
With the GP4XL being dual SIM,
tell them you would like to utilise the Dual SIM with an additional line you have with another carrier, in which the phone is asking for the unlock code.
*** the phone does NOT have to be paid off ***
--- this is due to the device itself carrying the DUAL SIM hardware, they have to accomodate this feature.
hope this info helps.
Can you confirm that OEM unlocking is not greyed out in Developer settings ? Go to settings>about phone>build number and tap 7 times. Enter your PIN code then back out to settings, then go to system, developer options. Scroll down until you see OEM unlocking. Can you check OEM unlocking ? Or is it greyed out ?

Yes, the option for unlocking is available (see pix)
Your PIXEL 4 XL has (2) IMEI numbers (look on box)
The first IMEI number is registered for network use using a physical SIM card (currently for most)
The second IMEI number is registered using ESIM (electronic SIM)
In order for you to unlock the device via AT&T, you first have to switch over the phone to register using the ESIM.
This is where ATT is sending out a preregistred ESIM card that will be attached to the second IMEI. (the card itself is nothing but a card outlining network registration numbers, etc)
Once you switched from physical SIM to ESIM on ATT, then you can unlock the phone (of course still needing the unlock code) by placing a SIM card from a different carrier in the device.
With the device having TWO IMEI numbers, all carriers MUST oblige to any requests for unlocking for use of the second IMEI. With restrictions of course (like having initial service)
By law they have to. The device shipped with two 'enabled,' IMEI lines for network registration. So much so if they denied this option by law they would have to refund the entire purchase price of the device.
Now if the device shipped with the second IMEI disabled, then thats a different story.

Yep! Setup your network w/ATT using the ESIM number (card) you receive
Once up and running, pop a SIM card from another network in.
Enter code and your FREE to go.
No problem for the info. AT&T shouldnt give you any problems.
though every once in a while you get an agent who has no clue..
For anyone who would like to unlock their ATT Pixel 4XL - I would first try unlocking
online through AT&T web portal. It takes about 2 minutes to go through the request.

As I only just got my GP4XL, I myself am looking forward to see what goodies await.

Hey, so just been following this thread and was wondering... By code, you mean ATT actually sent you a physical code to enter into the Pixel 4? Or it's a remote unlock like iPhones?
Thanks mate!

If you fill out the request via the ATT web portal unlock (link)
they will email you the unlock code within 24-48 hours.
Once you get the unlock code, then you can start the process of contacting ATT to request to move your device to ESIM registration.

Gotcha. So just to be clear, you had to enter an actual unlock code into your ATT Pixel 4 to unlock it? Like when you popped in a SIM from another carrier it asked for a unlock code that you had to manually enter?
And once the device is unlocked, why bother contacting ATT to move the device to ESIM?
Sorry, just wondering if I'm missing something

Well in my experience. I told the att rep I wanted to use the dual SIM feature and needed to be sim unlocked. They started me off with a e-sim. When I get it in the mail I'm gonna set it up, then I'm gonna request the unlock code. I made it half way through the process. Hopefully I don't get held up on the unlock code.
