[Q] Is there any way to SIM unlock the Dinc2 by myself?

I've been trying to do this forever. I'm trying to use it in Canada, I already know it wont work CDMA but will on GSM/Global. Its S-Offed and I know I will probably need to be on the stock ROM so I got back to stock. I can't pay for the service cause I'm a student and need that 10 bucks. Help please?

Is your phone unlocked?

Yes, I want to know if there's any way to do that myself.

Yes but you gotta pay.

So there's definitely no way to do it on my own? I can only do it by paying someone?

I have a stock verizon incredible 2 that I need to sim unlock for use in Thailand. Is it really true that the only way to sim unlock this phone is to pay for an unlock code?

Yes. Or ask Verizon global services to unlock it if your still with them.

I have never been with Verizon so that choice is out of the question. I guess I need to find the cheapest vendor selling the codes.
Thanks.

Just FYI
As of like a week ago unlocking without the carrier's consent is illegal and you can be sued....... Just saying

Maybe for you Americans by US based carriers.
I didn't buy the phone from Verizon. I don't live in the USA. I don't intend to use the phone on any US carrier. Who will sue me again and what law have I broken?

Also I'm pretty sure the law states that it is for devices purchased after last Saturday. Hopefully there aren't a lot of people buying brand new Dinc2s.

Alright, I guess that's it then. Would anyone be able to direct me to a reputable and cheap unlocking service?

I'm sure there will be if the user base calls for it. Hasn't been made yet because the device technically doesn't launch until tomorrow on T-Mobile.

I'm curious if the T-Mo version will work flawlessly with AT&T. I've heard the Sprint and Verizon devices can be buggy.

The unlocked version should work flawlessly on AT&T already.

That it does but due to my wedding in three weeks followed by an expensive honeymoon, I lack the funds to purchase an unlocked one from anywhere other than BestBuy currently.
They say they'll eventually carry unlocked 10s, but really, who knows? They will have the T-Mo version though.

In the meantime, everything you read for the u.s. unlocked version translates directly to the T-Mobile version.

Can someone who got the T-Mobile HTC 10 today tell me what they put for the receipt number when they registered for the free ice view case and charger?
Thanks lol

I just put in the Trans #, they require a scan of the receipt anyway, so I recon it's just to cross check.
The proof of purchase will be the scanned document.

I just want to know if tmobile installed any extra software, and if so if we can uninstall it without root. My rooting days are way over.

The only T-Mobile apps on the phone are the T-Mobile visual voicemail app and the T-Mobile account app.
Edit: Their are actually a few more T-Mobile apps, I forgot because I disabled them lol.

Good to know. Thank you! Thinking about picking one up. I love my Moto X Pure, but I really miss having an HTC as my DD.

Does anyone know if the T-Mobile version has an unlocked bootloader and can install TWRP etc?

Even with the unlocked version we still had to go through HTC Dev to unlock the bootloader to install TWRP. I am willing to bet that it will be the same with the T-Mobile version.

@Behold_this the back of my device says 2PS6500 does this mean I can restore the RUU through download mode by placing the renamed zip in my SD card? Thank you in advance.

should i purchase the international or USA version of the note 7?

in terms of rooting which version should I purchase? I heard that the USA version has a locked bootloader which means it is not rootable correct? Is it impossible to unlock the bootloader unless Samsung does something or..? I would assume that since people are going so far as to refund their phones instead of waiting for an unlocker to be released if that is even possible.

I'm waiting to buy international version of phone with Xynos Chip and no AT&T bloatware. We will probably get better battery life and faster updates. We will lose HD and Wifi calling but no biggie IMHO.

Chance's of the USA version being Unlocked are slim to none... Even the Canadian version is locked down.

Having done development work in this field, I feel obligated to tell you that's not exactly true. Hd voice consists of two voice codecs - AMR Wideband, and AMR narrowband. These codecs do not explicitly require VoLTE to function. In fact, you can make "HD Voice" calls over 4G HSPA/HSPA+ using the narrowband version of the codec.

Sounds good to me. Here's AT&T definition of HD voice.

Yeah everyone dumbs down their definitions for the general public.
Basically, telephony in general has always had an 8khz spectrum width for audio. This was manly due to the fact it's small and low bandwidth. With the advent of 3.5g (hspa/hspa+ and lte) bandwidth is drastically increased. This allows for a doubled (16khz) spectrum width as there's plenty of bandwidth for it.

For AT&T and Verizon, correct. T-Mobile uses HD Voice over their 3G network, and you get better sounding calls when talking to another T-Mobile subscriber (I understand they will eventually bridge HD Voice to other carriers). VoLTE for T-Mobile (Advanced Calling for VZW) allows you to keep your LTE signal while on a call, as opposed to dropping down to 3G.

Good question. I heard a rumor that they did some sort of update and locked it?

I have the international variant and it does have VoLTE.

Singapore here. Singtel.

Would love to get international variant if it works with Tmobile.

I can purchase an international version on eBay, there is one currently for 789$ but there is only gold platinum available and the seller ships from NY.... i want to get this but unsure if it is a fake phone or something ><

The Phone may be region locked. Mine (South East Asia) came with a card that says, the Phone needs to be using SEA sim card for the first boot up.

I'm in the same boat, $789 seems lucrative, but no warranty so not sure should take that risk or not. I'm waiting for B&H to go on sale at least they provide their own 1 year warranty.

Verizon note 7 rootable/unlocked bootloader likely?

Is it likely at all that anyone will come up with a way to get around the locked bootloader for this phone?

For verizion? Probably none. Though I thought I found a thread on rooting a verizon S7/S7 edge on here, so who knows. makes me hopeful.

Samsung s9 on Xfinity Mobile?

Anyone running a Samsung/carrier unlocked S9 on Xfinity Mobile network? I’d rather avoid buying one from then to avoid bloatware.
Do all the S9s have all the same bands? Heard people having issues with u locked s8/s9 on XM.
Also if I buy an unlocked will I still get software updates?

All galaxy devices are identical since the S8 apart from the 2 processor choices and sim tray configurations. Every qualcomm S9 is exactly the same at the motherboard level and all have the same capabilities. Get whichever G960U you like and if you have any issues getting the verizon service up and running on it, get the latest firmware from sammobile.com/firmwares and flash it in Odin. By doing so, you now have a full fledged verizon phone that should work with 99.999% of vzw MVNOs including XM
