So I got a Optimus G E-971, and it is currently on rogers. Now I know it may be a long shot but is there a way to unlock this phone without having to pay, I am strapped for cash for a week and need the phone ASAP, as I am starting a small business.
The device is "Unlocked, and Rooted" but I had gotten my hopes up when I did both of them thinking that it would unlock my phone to be used on a different carrier.
Nope. But 4$ is not that much

It is when you don't have more than a cent in your accounts.
True words,but,unfortunatelly there is no way to unlock this phone.

Exactly, if you want it unlocked, you need to pay for it.
If you don't have the 4$ for the unlock, I wounder how you pay the bill for the device...!

Haha because I only pay monthly so I can normally afford it when the bill comes, anywho I was planning on buying a code today, but problem is now for some reason my phone is telling me it's permanently locked, is there a way to reverse this?

I turn the device on with the SIM card and it says "This phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked." Yet just because I was curious tried another sim card and it didn't give me this error, I also tried this sim card on another phone and it worked fine.
So I'm in the process of unlocking my sim (permanently) so I can use it on my carrier in here in Canada. My question is when the sim is unlocked can I install a custom rom, will it still work? ie; can I still make calls and texts?
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. But I really need to know.

Hi! Thank you for answering my question.
The device is locked to the T-Mobile carrier. I want to use it with Freedom Mobile here in Canada, the phone should work on this carrier. I made the mistake of buying it through ebay (was cheap) I will use cellunlocker.net to unlock it.

Okay. Please let us know if cellunlocker works, I haven't tried their service due to too expensive.
You might be able to unlock this device and use it on every network.
But you will probably not be able to use it with Freedom mobile in Canada because Freedom uses CDMA technology, whereas T-mobile uses GSM.
Update: Cellunlocker was unable to unlock the device. Will return and buy the H850 instead.

Do you never used your phone with the T-Mobile network? Did you buy on ebay (buyspry)? Few weeks ago cellunlocker did not work for me, I'm thinking about trying again.

Nope. I never used a T-Mobile sim. I get the phone thru some online seller here in the Philippines. On their first email that says my device was successfully unlocked but when I tried it, It fails I emailed them and they told me to wait again and after few days they finally unlocked my device.
Does your IMEI come up on t mobile website using the imei checker? . I tried cellunlocker about a month ago but they couldnt unlock my device and refunded me

Dude!
I have an H830 locked to t-mobile that I want to use on Freedom mobile in Canada also! How much did you have to pay to do this? All these sites are asking me for $150 and cellunlocker.net simply told me that I should wait up to a month before asking them again because they're having troubles with it.
Same here...I found a local phone shop who promised to unlock for less than $25.. two days later they said the server is down. I think its global I got the same response from different eBay sellers also. I hope T-mobile is not patching their system.

If you own the phone and there's no balance why can't Verizon unlock it so that I can unlock the bootloader? I have a Tmobile Oneplus 6t as well and I purchased it outright and the TMobile Rep unlocked it for me. Has anyone ever called Verizon to unlock the Pixel?
I've used my pixel on T-Mobile without any issues.

That is true I am also using the Verizon variante on TMobile but what I'm saying is my TMobile OnePlus 6t came with a greyed out OEM Unlock option. So I called TMobile and told them I want the phone unlocked and they did it. I just had to factory reset the phone and the option was no longer greyed out. So I'm wondering why can't Verizon do the same for the Pixel? I mean I do own the phone out right no finance.
Verizon will not allow the bootloader unlock and I highly doubt any devs are looking into it either.

That's stupid specially if I own the phone, it's like they still have control over it even though I own it. I guess that's what I get for being impatient and rushing to get the Pixel instead ordering it from Google and waiting on the shipping
I'm in the same boat but to be honest the whole point of a pixel in my opinion is to get a pure Google experience.. I don't have a valid reason to root to be honest. Also my work apps won't work on a rooted phone so might as well be bootloader locked
As I'm in Ireland and bought the 3xl while on a work trip on launch day I'm tempted to see if Verizon might unlock it for me.. really it's not making much difference to me

So please elaborate. You bought the phone from Verizon to use on another network? How and why would you do that? If I wasn't on VZW I'd never get the phone from them... oh wait, did you buy it from BB, i.e. the VZW version on discount? If so you probably need to return it if it's still possible. If not then you are locked forever. Only way is to sell it and buy another. Yes, you own the phone but they own the discount you got from BB and basically you're screwed. Damn that sucks man.

He's talking about the SIM card.
VZW will not and has never unlocked a BL on any phone that had a locked BL. They say it protects their nerwork... More like they hate people hacking their apps and loosing money.
Last unlocked BL they sold was Nexus 6... Correct me, cuz I did zero research on this... Just my cloudy damaged memory

Thread: Pixel 3 XL Questions and Answers...
Question: Will Verizon unlock the Pixel?
I thought that's what he meant, I asked for clarification.
As for the bootloader, no they will not. I just moved to Pixel 3 XL after getting an OG Verizon PIxel XL right after launch (actually immediately after the dePixel exploit was published or I would have purchased direct from Google or chose another phone). This same discussion along with the same "it's not fair since I own the device" arguments has been going on for years. Look at Huawei for evidence that bootloader locking is becoming more restrictive and not less. You can only purchase the device outright, and even they have discontinued the bootloader code request system. Eventually an exploit might come around, but maybe it won't. jcase pretty much said the original dePixel find was an accident, and it took another year and a half or so to find another for a phone that was already being replaced. Either take a risk that one will be found knowing that it might never come, or bite the bullet and buy a Google version or a 6T (where even if you get it at full price from T-Mobile you might have to wait to get BL and carrier unlock).

Does it protect their network if I never accept any OTA updates because such updates could fix any exploits that eventually will be used to allow me to root the phone that I bought and own?
I mean, I'm just wondering what they would say/do if a lot of people start telling them point blank that they are going to boycott all security and other updates until they allow BL unlocking.

Easy answer. They don't care about consumer opinion until results are felt. They are concerned with brand, lawsuits , and corporate spending. Look at it this way, this thread was last posted on (by me) over a year ago, and there hasn't even been a sniff of an exploit or getting Big Red to change even once.
Once, a long time ago, Verizon carried bootloader unlockable phones. My Nexus 6 was from Verizon and it was fantastic. Google made a marketing decision for Verizon to push the Pixel OG exclusively, Verizon forced them to make a varient that could be locked down and full of Verizon crapware, just like every phone on their network. OG, 2, 3 and now 4, sold by Verizon will never get natively unlocked. The only hope would be a temp root solution and being able to toggle the unlock in developers options.
6 years ago unlocked "dev" phones weren't readily available, but Google sells an unlockable version now, with financing if you want, most people that want root just buy that.

So much I want to root my Pixel 3a but OEM unlocking is greyed out because it is carrier locked. I owe $250 to Sprint to pay it off. Would they allow it to be unlocked once it's payed? Or will I need to make up some excuse why I need it unlocked besides saying I want to root it?
Any help is appreciated, thanks

I highly doubt sim unlocking a phone would allow the bootloader to be unlocked. For example the Verizon Pixel 2 XL is sim unlocked out of the box, but the bootloader to this day is locked.

You can always ask to have it sim unlocked before it is payed off. The longer you have had their service, the more likely they may be to unlock it. Once it is payed off, they should unlock it for you.
Once it is sim card unlocked, the bootloader unlock button will start working.

That because you have a Verizon phone. It's the only US carrier that bootlocks the Pixel phones.
You live in the Cleveland area(from your profile), so can you tell them you need a sim unlock because you got a job across the lake in Canada and want to use a Canadian carrier to cut down on costs - or even say your new(fake) employer has a work sim for you to use? It's a practical and believable excuse as people do commute across the border regularly for work.
& if the sim unlock gets you the OEM unlock option - BOOM: you're all set.
*It's just a little white lie to a giant corporation that lies to consumers all the time(sprint has the best service? my a**). You've got nothing to lose, so why not try?

Maaaan... I guess my little plan failed then. Sorry to hear that. But it was worth a shot.
And I'm curious about the unlock after you pay it off too, but I have heard in the past on some devices Sprint does give you OEM unlock once it's fully paid for. Verizon is the main carrier where you are stuck no matter what...paid off or not.
I wish the you best & hope you find a solution sooner rather than later.:fingers-crossed:

Not sure what you mean. As long as we aren't talking about Verizon, there are plenty of people that have gotten their phones unlocked from the carriers and then had the bootloader unlock work. Google has simply tied the bootloader unlock to the SIM lock which makes sense because if you could bootloader unlock the phone, I'm sure there would be a way to SIM unlock it. There isn't anything special that Sprint needs to do other than SIM unlock the phone - the phone will automatically allow bootloader unlocking once the phone is SIM unlocked.
The Verizon models should be considered bootloader locked forever. There were some reports that people have been able to bootloader unlock the Verizon model, but I would chalk that up to early errors on Verizon's part vs a change in their company's policy.
If you are looking for a way to get Sprint to SIM unlock the phone, then that is another issue. Obviously the company policy is to only unlock phones that have been paid off unless there are special circumstance (ie you are traveling out of the country). I will say that calling the customer service line is the hardest method of getting a phone unlocked. The most success comes from people DM the carrier using Twitter. That must go into a different group and they seem to be much more likely to unlock a phone than the normal call center. But you are always at the mercy of the person handling the request because it is generally an exception to the rule.

Sic,
Wow, this is fantastic, and exactly what I was looking for. I've been hesitant to pull the trigger on buying a 'sprint locked' Pixel 3 XL because I haven't seen anybody who has actually said "Yes, I've done this." Only folks who said stuff like you, but I think I'm gonna go for it. I'm very confident of getting sprint to SIM unlock it.
Thanks again for your help.
Couldn't you just buy a sim unlock code from a service other than your carrier, unlock it and problem solved??
So I'm still financing my device through T-Mobile, but I always check the device unlock app in the off chance that something changed. Today, I went through the unlock request and it was approved. No trying to contact T-Mobile about it or anything. It just went through. Skeptical, I went to see if the OEM unlock option was available, and I was able to toggle it with no issue. A friend mentioned that he'd heard the latest update was allowing people to unlock their phones without authorization. Anyone else getting this?
Well that is great news...I got TMobile to unlock perm the 2nd day I had mine. Still financed and everything.
I think they are getting more easy to request unlock on certain phones nowadays. My 6t was same but good luck with Samsung phone....
Were do you find this carrier unlock request? I'm curious, to see if it can be done with my sprint phone.

How long have you had the device? Have you been using it for more than 45 days? I'm really hoping my unlock was intentional and not just a random mishap, because that'd be great news for T-Mobile users if that was the case

No, I just bought it. Paid in full. After doing some Google searches, I will have to wait 45 or > days before I can unlock. Kind of a bummer, but I can live with it. Got a good $ trade-in from T-Mobile, so that's why I bought the 3a XL from them.

Yeah, when you do that, an update would be appreciated. If you still have a balance on your phone, but it's unlocked, then that means we can confirm that t-mobile variants are getting unlocked before being paid off, which is great for people looking for rootable devices
