[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] mannunikhil:
I purchased Lg G6 unlocked t-mobile from ebay India on a half price of original "this is what I was patting my back with pride for" for a while though. Well, today I got a prompt on my phone screen that T-mobile temporary unlock period is expired, please reboot. I could smell the issue by now and as soon as I rebooted another message said "Network Lock". Now my sim does not have network signals. It is as good as a brick because I do not have t-mobile sim nor I think this phone was outright'ly purchased before it landed in my hands.

Looking for options:

1) does flashing custom rom (If available) release the network lock?

2) are there software available that can unlock without t-mobile sim?

3) are there paid unlock services available for foreign network?

4) any other that I am not aware of?

:crying::crying::crying:
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] hyelton:
Sadly only option is to return/get a refund for the phone I’m sure eBay will work in your favour due to this.

Try the network unlock app (purple icon) and request unlock that way. Make sure your on WiFi.

If that doesn’t work only solution is to buy a app unlock on eBay which usually varies in price. And that’s only if the phones imei is not blacklisted
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] mannunikhil:
Thanks for the guidance.

I contacted my local market repair shop, he tried unlocking with his software but failed. He tried unlocking by sending a request to some recognised network unlocker but failed. Now he is suggesting a solution that a modified software flashing can be done to revoke the network lock from it for which I'm unsure about.

While surfing for the resolution, I have come across 2 options,

1 - flashing a ROM for H872 from this xda post.

2 - Have gone through several "GSMHosting" forum pages and people are doing network unlocking at ease with logs as proof. Is this all legit?
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] hyelton:
1. Flashing a rom is not going to unlock it.

2. No it’s not legit to unlock a T-Mobile phone unless T-Mobile themselfs unlock it. But there’s plenty of app unlocking services on eBay between $15 and $30 usually. And if they can’t unlock it it’ll just be a WiFi only device.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] mannunikhil:
Thanks for your suggestions mate, really helpful. I have fixed the issue.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] adbraz:
how???
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] arif238:
How did you fixed this problem, I also have LG G6 T-Mobile variant H-872, bought from eBay India till now it's working fine just wanna know in advance if I get a message like that in future what I'm gonna do then?
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] mannunikhil:
For now just pray to God that it should continue to work this way. :)

I know how tensed I was when I encountered this, anyhow you can come back to me in case of issue.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] jayinc11:
So what is the solution that worked for you?

Don't worry about our warranty, some of us have none that is why we are posting here.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] arif238:
Bro at least give us a solution in advance so that when we encounter any problem we can fix it quickly

See, you replied after one month that's a very long time. That is why I'm asking.

Most probably people forget to reply so if you just give us the solution that would be very helpful in those kind of situations if anyone encounters it.

[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] jayinc11:
Bro I ain't with mannunikhil, the one with the solution. I too, wondered what was the good solution. So cannot help you, for I do not of know, these matters. :D
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] mannunikhil:
Its not that I read your post after a month but I responded late cuz been busy with my stuff and 2ndly your phone still works. I have helped about 21 people so far who have network lock issue, few came back to me to say it worked for them and few dint. All I know is that it worked for me and may work for others too. If my intention was just to keep it to myself I would have already wiped out my relevant posts.

However, thats not the point, point is this forum have ample of info already to understand how to fix this issue but all it takes is to read through all the pages and posts which most people dont take pain for.

You dont say that, I have already shared with you the solution. :confused:
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] jayinc11:
Do you want me to post the solution in public? I thought that is what YOU DIDN'T want? :confused:

Listen, arif238 just decided it was ez'ier to quote everyone who posted asking you a question of the solution, folks who were basically in the same boat with him. What do we call this...lazy fingers. My response was calling this out, if you didn't realize. He too should have written you a DM for the solution, right?

BTW again thanx for sharing the solution with me. I didn't pursue it though. I decided to return the units and got a US997.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] iamamnk:
Please helpp!!

I have the same problem. I got my phone online for half price too! At first when I entered my local sim, it was working. The phone was new so I wanted to explore it and opened the device unlock app to see what it was about. Tried pressing permanent unlock but it said failed. Then tried temporary and it approved. 2 days ago, it said that the unlock period has expired or something and it the network tag said "network locked". T-mobile lets you temporarily unlock your phone twice a month. So I've unlocked it for another month but won't be able to do it again. Please helpp!!
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] hyelton:
File a claim. There’s nothing that can by pass that unless you buy an expensive unlock and that’s assuming there’s no payment due on the phone
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] iamamnk:
[MENTION=4584025]mannunikhil[/MENTION] said that they found a way. I really don't want to go through the headache of transferring everything on to my computer and reinstall and restore all the apps on my old phone and then do the same when I replace it after I get my claim.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFixItMan:
What version of twrp are using

You probably need at least 3.2.2-0

Latest version at time of post is 3.2.3-0

https://dl.twrp.me/klte/

Make sure you have also flashed the latest firmware for your device

For example I'm using G900FXXU1CQK3
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apollopt:
Thanks a lot m8.

I had the TWRP version 3.1.1. After updated if worked fine.

For what price you purchased the mobile?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] QQboss:
My friend has the same issue. Bought a second hand Tmobile G6 and the sim couldnt get any signal. After a while googling I found that IMEI of the device is blacklisted.

Now I wonder if rooting the device and changing the IMEI would help.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] akashx101:
I can help you, text me on whatsapp @ +917022130177
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] mannunikhil:
There is a service on ebay,com which can make blacklisted imei as clean. search that up.

ok.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] menonmanjesh:
Please update this thread if you got a solution for this issue.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] mannunikhil:
No solution yet. Tried few options but all in vain. Now, what I have found out that, If I downgrade it to Nougat 11g, then I can get it unlocked. Though I am not able to find one post where there was a complete procedure looks like it was deleted by the OP.

are you in same situation as I am?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] menonmanjesh:
No. I just wanted to know the workaround.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Zirc92:
Did they remove the option to turn off WiFi when the phone sleeps? Can't find it in WiFi advanced settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ars0n:
Yup, i feel like it turns it off and causes issues with taskter, etc. could also just be tasker.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] haifish9999:
Yes.... Samsung has been remove this option in the new Galaxy Note9 ..... they did a bad thing while removed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
That's terrible. I remember that option was brought in a few years ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] xguntherc:
Yes my apps all stop updating when the screen turns off. This is causing all types of problems. Why the F would they remove this, especially on a phone with a massive 4,000 mAh battery.

Stupid.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Huh? I think we were talking about the opposite thing. WiFi stays ON when sleeping now. Before it could be set to turn off when screen was off thus your apps wouldn't get updated until your phone woke up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] beta546:
Yeah I know this wasn't the point of the thread, but this is exactly what happens to me. If my WiFi is on and I leave the phone off for a while I get no push notifications for anything, I only noticed one morning when I'd left WiFi on and woke up, when I turned it off and went back to mobile data, all my notifications came. It's not much of an issue for me as I don't use WiFi really, I get 20gb data a month so my mobile data is on 24/7 and get no problems with that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] WaxysDargle:
a lot of this has to do with the battery conservation features of Oreo. every oreo phone i've had has had this issue unless it was a custom ROM built over a 7.1 kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] beta546:
Yes I agree, I've had constant problems with notifications for a year or more now, stock and custom ROMs, this is actually the first time I've not had a problem with them, except on WiFi like I mentioned. Everything comes through straight away on mobile data, even when the phone's been asleep for several hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Yep. 100%. Since Oreo notifications have been hit and miss for me., Been like this since the note 8 Oreo update .
[Mogul, XV6800 General] devinf:
Hi guys, I would really appreciate any help you could give me on this issue.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] christoophat:
I really wanted to try out that ROM, as it seemed to check all my boxes for my soon to arrive V30+. Looks like the thread got closed due to some antics & egos, and the dev pulled all the links to the files.

Hoping it gets sorted out at some point....:(
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] seloka180:
??????

me too

I was waiting for a stable release to my v300s ?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] intruda119:
Appreciate the hard work but the rom was very alpha. Everything plus the kitchen sink but needed some work.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] christoophat:
Perhaps, but now.... one less dev for our phones. Saw similar thing in Axon 7 forum, dev ported a bunch of ROMs, get Treble working, then got bored or lack of enough thanks, and split. At least he left the links up.

Ah well...same as it ever was.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
True but that's why treble is great, there's a but load of GSI AOSP roms
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] christoophat:
From what I've seen so far at least on Axon7, is that most all of the GSIs still have a lot of non-working functions. The advantage of a "modified" stock ROM, is that it uses what was originally written for the device and can utilize all of the features we got the phone for in the first place, DAC, cameras, etc. For me rooted stock, debloated, with a different launcher & maybe some added audio goodies, & I B a happy camper.

But am always watching for custom ROMS that can deliver all the goodies. Fingers crossed. :good:

Seriously you need to chill down.

Like I already said in one of my previous comments (which you probably asked to be deleted because I was telling the truth) - internet will always be a place for people to hide behind aliases while acting like assholes.

You should have ignored those people or reported them for flaming and offending you, as they are a tiny minority, most of the people actually praised you for your work.

Now ultimately what you do is your choice, but it's kind of a childish thing to do, especially considering the fact that you were also rude towards some people that had no bad intentions.

Once again, I wish you a good luck. :)

Plus adding less than perfect translation software into the mix can lead to misunderstandings between languages.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Atrizzain:
There's always some entitled a holes ruining things for everyone, this man put in countless hours building a ROM that rivals anything I've seen as far as features go... And people act like he owes them a frigging wishlist. It's his creation, for himself, that he was kind enough to share with us all. True it wasn't a perfect creation(as few ROMs are), but it clearly said BETA... You can install a ROM but not read, apparently. It's a shame, we lost a great dev.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Pretty much
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] intruda119:
We have different definitions of great dev.

I choose quality over quantity.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] christoophat:
Since it was only the one ROM, huh?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Exactly. If people didn't like the ROM they could ignore it. Some devs like suggestions, others have a take it or leave it attitude. It's their ROM, so they have that right -- especially when it's not a branded group ROM like Resurrection Remix or something.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] DonWuan:
No. But getting to the point of a stable release helps. Rom was heading in a great direction if he wanted to continue the work. Best feature rich original rom ive seen in quite some time. Last few days of the thread was just asking questions. People were losing wifi, bluetooth and other issues. Someone mentioned volume slider being like 1-300 that pissed him off. Volume slider did nothing between 1-250 though.

This is not entitlement or being a ahole. When a dev decides to throw 1 million new features into a device the dev/creator might lose focus on the devs vision. Unless something was brewing before i entered the thread was nothing a seasoned user of xda/forums couldnt handle.

Rom was inconsistent across the board with parts installed that didnt work. Majority of the features didnt work correctly and we knew this rom was beta. But instead of being up front in the op users like myself didnt know what i was getting into. Nothing mentioned in the op about magisk or xposed not working. That you need to enable 20 apps to stop the annoyong popups all over the place.

Gboard stopped working in cettain apps. Which i woupd have mentioned nicely. Putting things q0 layers deep is sonmething also.

Being upfront would avoid a portion of the questions(atleast the users who read). Workinf smarter vs harder could have avoided some of the bs questions. I believe this rom was one of a kind which brings its own challenges.

Hopefully the dev comes back and shares his work again. Believe in being blunt with folks, enough people lying to us daily.

Conatructive critism. I do appreciate the hard work.

While some on here were harsh, he was a tool himself.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] christoophat:
Agree with the above. And again, I feel that language barrier played a part in all this, as I have seen in other threads where non English speaking person reading something in translation that sounds derogatory to him tempers flare & it starts going in the toilet. Awaiting my V30, was searching thru the threads to find which I thought would be what I need. His held some promise, but yeah there were a lot of jumping thru hoops activity to get it installed/working etc per what I was reading thru.There was a dev in the Axon7 section who released like 6 different ROMS, all in the same thread , it became a nightmare just trying to keep track of which ROM was which. I was kind of surprised the mods let it go that way.

Simple & direct is bestest
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] AquaSize:
You see, those things make a great dev quit, like just be grateful, the Dev knows those problems and did his best, and all he get was "can you please fix [something] " or people not actually reading the thread properly
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darth:
It's simple folks. Really. Members who contribute work here don't owe anyone anything. Not updates, fixes, explanations, nothing. This isn't a candy store, and nobody has the right to demand anything from anyone, or criticize anyone for anything. If you don't like someone's work, or it's not up to your standards, then move on to something else, quietly. Or even better, create your own work, anyone can learn. And this site has many resources to help you learn.

On the flip side, people will complain, whine and demand, it can't be avoided. But, we have a report system for anyone over the top or too disrespectful. Or, simply ignore them. Getting upset and lashing out is definitely no way to handle it, and will end up bringing trouble to your door.

This is the internet, without a thick skin, it's a harsh place to be.

Developers do this for free and for fun, and no one has the right to complain about anything. And, if it's not fun anymore, I suggest another hobby. Life's too short to spend time on something that's lost its charm for you.

And so, thread closed. Don't need a thread to debate any of the above. Anyone here could start developing, instead of waiting for others to do it. So let's move on. :good:

I've been wanting to flash the Open Beta of Pie for a bit but what's stopping me is the concern of not having TWRP and Magisk to work (As 17.1 does support P) But I don't want a soft (or hard) bricked phone. So for those who have the Beta installed, could you install Magisk 17.1 and TWRP (3.2.2 or newer) without any issues? Thanks

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] HighOnLinux:
I apologize if I'm asking too much, since I don't have a computer anymore that I could restore from again if I get it bricked. So the steps you took were:

3. Flash Magisk

4. Boot to system
