[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] markpwilms:
Since the hardware for the Sprint S9+ and the Unlocked are the same, I would say that it would, but that is only a guess. The capability of Band 71 is built into the processor. It would need to be unlocked by an OTR update or by flashing a T-Mobile rom. Once they start combining the two networks I'm sure that Band 71 will work on that phone, but, once again, it's only a guess.

Tmobile merger is not a done deal - a lot of opposition - worries that it would have same result as in Canada where there are only 3 big players and no price competition at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] markpwilms:
One thing that is a done deal now is that Sprint and T-Mobile signed a 4 year roaming agreement, which starts immediately (asap), and will be in place whether the merger happens or not. Since I'm an old Sprint customer who switched to Tmobile 2 years ago, I'm familiar where Sprint roams, and where Band 71 would be a benefit. I would be surprised if they don't make Band 71 to the devices that can utilize it.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Boobteg0:
When you purchase an unlocked S9 from Samsung, do you have to choose whether you want it to be CDMA or GSM? I recently had an s9+ unlocked that was on CDMA before, and it still only uses CDMA so it's stuck to verizon, sprint etc.. It's incompatible with t-mobile.

I was just wondering if you had to make this same distinction when purchasing one straight from samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kydar:
Does anybody know the secret code to get into Engineer Mode on the S9+ (SM-G965F/DS). That's one way to definitively tell what bands your phone has.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] John0445:
This is the service code for the S9/S9+. I have an unlocked S9 on T-Mobile and can say it connects tos Band 71.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] scottusa2008:
Just joined T-Mobile today (from AT&T prepaid) and Band 71 works. My phone is using it, data speeds are yet to be fully determined... We are in the middle of a snowstorm so it's not like I can go outside to get proper speed tests. My home interferes with the cell signal so data speeds aren't that good.

According to the coverage map I am supposed to be in a non-LTE partner area, but the extended range LTE 600Mhz spottedly shows up in the map. Nearest native area is about 70 miles away from me.

VoLTE, Wifi calling are enabled. Download Booster now shows up (didn't on the AT&T sim).

Also I know someone asked earlier about Sprint phones and this.. My phone is a Sprint GS9+ unlocked, running the unlocked firmware (U1).

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
I got ahold of a used t-mobile z2 force. Considering I'm still using a 2012 phone, this will be quite an upgrade for me. I tried the t-mobile app to carrier unlock but no luck. From reading here, it seems there are two options.

#1 - Get new a prepaid sim, activiate, then add $100 credit, wait a few days, then try the app again, eventually it will work.

#2 - Get/Borrow a used sim (doesn't matter if prepaid), put it in the phone, wait a few days, then try the app again, eventually it will work.

Am I right?

If so, any suggestions where to find a used sim? I tried ebay and they're all new and unactivated. Or maybe someone here did option 1 and doesn't need their sim anymore, PM me.

I looked into option #1 myself but at $3/month for voice/text only, it's not real useful to me as I use hangouts/voice for voice & text, all I really need is data. And with the prepaid unlimited I'd use up my $100 in two months, kinda a waste imo.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
What error message did you receive? There are two kinds; the device is not eligible for an unlock or the device is unknown.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
Unlock Failed: This mobile device is not eligible for unlock. For device Unlock eligibility details, please go online or contact Customer Care.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
That error means the device is recognized by the server and can be unlocked when it is eligible. Since you’re not the original owner you won’t have any way of knowing when it will be eligible. The phone could still be on a payment plan or the original buyer could have defaulted.

If you need it unlocked quickly your best bet maybe finding a third party unlock service that can flag your IMEI as unlock eligible with the unlock server.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
I'm more concerned about cheaply than quickly.

My understanding tho is that it is not under any contract. But even so my understanding is that the app won't unlock unless there's a SIM card in there too from an existing customer... but this is just based on searches, I'm still unsure.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
I believe the phone has to be used for at least 45 days on a T-Mobile account to be considered for unlock.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
If I had family or friend on t-mobile I'd ask them to use this phone a while. But I don't unfortunately, that would be the easiest.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
I had my unactivated new in box T-Mobile z2 force that i got from a trade unlocked in a week after getting prepaid and putting 100 on it. That was the fastest and easiest way not knowing ppl who use tmo. Just wait a few days then call tech support and get them to escalate the unlock...say it's work related...after that restart and it will be unlocked.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
I want cheapest, not fastest or easiest. $100 for unlock sounds crazy. Don't suppose you still have that sim card?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
I don't know if my Sim would even help. I think with prepaid they go by imei so you might even have to add that $ to it. I think the Sim is just the door bell button.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
oh... yeah I better figure that out. If they require prepaid sim to have added $100 since first used on that particular imei, then a used sim doesn't help.

So seems like 3 options.

1 - fork out the $100 to t-mobile,

2 - borrow a non prepaid t-mobile sim (loan my phone to someone) for possibly up to 45 days before able to unlock

3 - find and pay an unlock service

I wonder what these unlock services do that I can't.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] sounreal:
Anyone have the link to the apk?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
They have a contact with someone at T-Mobile that can flag your IMEI as unlock eligible with the unlock server.

---------- Post added at 11:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 AM ----------

The app is preinstalled on supported phones only. If your phone does not have the app then it uses a different method to Sim unlock.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
still waiting... their eta aint so great as I passed the 1-5 business days. But I'm still hopeful cuz their online chat told me should be by next tuesday, although they didn't answer support email and I was on phone hold 10 mins beofre hanging up (since online chat replied while I was waiting on hold).
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Picasa01:
I have been waiting for two weeks and I have lost my confidence.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
Have you heard anything in the meantime? I got an email (after I posted here last) saying it was ready, but it still won't unlock. Called them and the guy said sorry they'll re-do it, something about the wrong server. So back to waiting... losing confidence but still hopeful...

If it isn't too much trouble, keep me updated (in this thread) as to what happens for you, or if you end up asking for refund, etc....
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] kendonsh:
Codes don't work on T-Mobile phones once the unlock app is on the device. Hopefully there isn't a balance on the device which would prevent it from being unlocked. For all the phones I use the app for, cuz I have T-Mobile and have gone through a quite a few devices, once it's paid off usually the app automatically works long as it was active service for 40 days prior.

Before the app I knew you could have someone with T-Mobile use this phone for a few days until it registers on the network and then you can request an unlock code and have it escalated.

I really want to lose patience

I really want to lose patience。Did you unlock it? My order has been for a month
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
No. They just gave up and refunded me, sent me the email quoted below. I hadn't even contacted them again, was just waiting and hoping. Now I'm back to finding a friend on t-mobile or forking out the $100+ for prepaid. It must work for some people tho...
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Kaesberg:
breh!! i had the same issue i ended up just paying 100 at a local store (actionlink wireless in slc- www.actionlinkwireless.com/ - )to get the device unlocked it took 5 days but now i can use any sims with my tmo version.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] turbojetjs:
Please let me know about that contact, because I need to unlock mine by the app.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
I don't know who that person(s) are, I'm just a regular customer like everyone else.

From what I've seen in threads lately it seems like T-Mobile has gotten more restrictive in their unlocking policies. Finding unlock services on eBay and other locations has been more difficult.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
I think you're right. I only found one other offering the service, and it's $130, and for that price may as well go the prepaid route thru T-mobile.

I just submitted again to cellunlocker, as I have nothing to lose. I don't think it'll work tho, but I emailed first and they said to try again, so why not. But if it doesn't work this time, and I still haven't heard of any other service to try by the time they refund me again, I guess I'll finally pay t-mobile.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
success!!!!!! It actually worked this time. I'm unlocked and using a freedompop sim. Quite pleased.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] erfanoabdi:
Congratulations

What services you used at all?

Only cellunlocker ? (60$?)

And how long it took to get unlocked?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enigma9o7:
Yes, only cellunlocker, but this is the second time I tried. The first time it didn't work and they refunded me but said I could try again in a couple weeks. I ordered again on April 24th, got confirmation it was unlockable on May 2. They also have a promotional offer to make a youtube video of the process for half price, so I actually should get $30 back once they verify the video, but I think that's only available to the first person who makes a video for a particular model. It's here https://youtu.be/bVPBYMlqjoE FYI, but nothing interesting in it .
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] turanist:
I'm kind of in the same situation where I bought an unactivated one from swappa but T-Mo insists the original owner has to activate and request the unlock. If I understand correctly, your prepaid account hadn't purchased the phone?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] erfanoabdi:
Cellunlocker couldn't unlock my phone but they refunded

I don't think there's possible way at least for me to unlock it

Newest Hermes radio versions 1.54.30.10

Is good...:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
What you gotta remember is that how well the radio rom works is dependant on your carrier. I can suggest 154.30.10 for Australia cos thats what the telstra network promotes but that may have serious issues with someone from another part of the world causing SHORT battery life, cutout in signal and may cause the "No GSM" error if continued to be used. Check around to see what other people from your area are using and that may be best, even if it is an older radio. This part of the phone is probabaly the most touchy and if you do have a problem (from what I've read) you will probably be looking at a brick. PDA will still work but phone is useless. Upgrade at own risk. Cheers.:)

Unfortunatly it does not update the app, it gets in conflict with the package already installed.

The only way i can see that would bypass it would be the factory reset the phone and install it as soon as the devices boots back.. Root is not an option for me... Neither is factory resetting the device so i guess i'll have to pass until someone finally patch it.

Use an apk editor and change the package different than what your camera packs would be. Be it has to have the same number of characters. So change 1. If you have access to apk editor pro then it has an option to change throughout the whole apk one one edit instead of going through and trying to find everyone.
