Unlocking the phone - Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
My phone was stolen last week in mexico city, and I baught a new one there at Walmart.
The phone (Huawei p20 lite) is issued to AT&T.
Now I'm back home (Israel) from the vacation, and when I enter my Israeli sim the phone requests a code.
I tried to contact at&t and tried using their form to request unlock but it doesnt recognize my IMEI, niether the mexican phone number.
Please help, I am able to root or install a stock rom if it will help, or any other instructions from you experts
Thanks alot

I think you need reBrand your device to your country. Look in xda in any Huawei Forum (actual Huawei-Family with OREO) for Help.
The Question is : have p20 lite for your country different Hardware (LTE-Bands ...) ?
Question 2 : have you the know how to do this ? It is not simple but it is very simple to brick the device !

Hey, thanks for your reply
The LTE frequency do match the ones in my country so that is not the issue if you are asking.
I have never done this on this phone, but if I find a guide that explains it step by step it would not be a problem.

hd2 sim unlock

hi all. i will buy tomorrow an hd2 which is locked on vodafone Romania. can you tell me if there is a sim unlock for free? if it's not, which website or "way" is safer to use it for unlocking? also, if you know a cheaper one i don't mind . I need to be unlocked fast (let's say in 1h after i pay, maximum). Thank you very much.
P.S. i've tried to search on hd2 thread but didn't find nothing about this.
that should be possible
search how to preform a HSPL install and how to update ROM
There is no free sim unlock solution , hspl install does not unlock sim .
Contact korter_gsm on ebay
He sent me a code in less than 2 minutes.
ok. i will contact him.
i saw now his posts, but a little problem that i have is that I don't need to unlock T-mobile version, but European version (vodafone romania). do you know any other place?
P.S. does anybody know something about this website?
or about this website?
HI there. Its korter_GSM from Ebay.
Regarding Vodafone Romania HD2 want to tell you. I have all HD2 codes including newest ones with IMEI 038 and 039 in the middle. But as you may already read somewhere, there are some operators that relocked the phones after receiving them from factory. So as we are providing only Factory codes, for some operators it may be wrong. Tmobile USA and many other operators dont have this issue and code for them are 100% correct. For Vodafone Romania i never checked.
for example. For A1 Austria Factory codes are wrong!
If any other question, contact me at Email [email protected]
or MSN [email protected]
i've made it in Romania, with 25 euro. thx all!

Some questions, about updates and unlockings

Hello from Spain, most probably there is explained but I can't find exactly what I'm looking (so if you you post a link I won't be mad )
Because I couldn't get the Nokia 800 with my operator and because I couldn't get it without changing company I got a Nokia 800 from a well-known auctions website.
The phone works fine and I thing it's unlocked because it works with my local carrier. But It says that is in 7.10.8107.79 and that the carrier company is Proximus. That's not the last firmware and it also isn't my carrier. Is there any way to free the device os any carrier or to force the update?
As I could see with some googling is that I need to download the firmware with NaviFrim Plus the thing now is that I don't know exactly what model I have, I think that mine is RM-819 (I have 1600.2487.8107.12070 for sure) but now the are tons of Variants, and i don't know which is good.
Dear Kapisketo, u can discover which RM is yours just pulling out the SIM card tray and looking behind it on the sticker.
If u have RM-801 u can follow the thread, i´ve done my self and worked like a charm: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737907
If u have RM-819 u can follow the thread,tried my self this in first time and worked like a charm: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1733039
Just pay attention in stpes, its not difficult.
Success to u.

PAC Code for my Lumia 800
Hello guys,
Just bought a Lumia 800 from E-Bay, in its original box, for a good price. When I started it, the first picture on the screen was a logo from Bouygues Telecom - France. After I have inserted my SIM into it, it says "Please insert the PAC code. 9 attempts remaining."
I have three questions:
1.What is the PAC code? Is the phone locked on a specific network?(found some explanations on the forums, but I`m still confused)
2. Why do I need to insert the PAC code in order to use this phone?
3. What do I have to do in order to use my phone strictly AS A PHONE?
Thank you in advance (and sorry for my poor english).
Yeap,it;s locked.I've yet to see someone unlock from bouygues france,maybe that's why you bought it at a low price?

[Q] i9300 mobile network issues :S

I'm having some issues with my i9300 i bought not too long ago pre-owned, i'm going to try my best to keep it clear and simple but...
I bought a i9300 off ebay locked to Optus mobile network, now before I tried to unlock it i rooted it and installed the cyanogen mod 10.2.0. Now I cant read my imei number and some other specs on the phone, i believe you need the imei or else it wont always work i'm told (unlocking the network). Ive been looking around for a stock rom from optus australian versions to see if that fixes the imei problem (didnt check to see if it was there when I had original rom on it). I've been running into problems finding a site that lets you download over 1 gig files without registering (**** that ****). Now I have two questions.
1. Can someone point me to a link of a fool proof no surveys and no registry restrictions of a stock rom from optus??
2. Is there it required to have an imei for unlocking or will unlocking fix my imei problem??
Is there a free way and relaviley easy way to unlock my phone??
Appreciate any help and ask for any more information
Additional imformation:
IMEI is Unknown
IMEI SV is Unknown
Serial No. Know
Have IMEI under battery

[Q] How can I find out from which country my S3 is?!

Hi,
Long story!
I got an S3 from a friend who need help because it was very slow and whatnot, anyways, he also told me that this S3 is not from UAE but it's working fine here, just very slow.
I said well, I will install a UAE firmware and hard rest it, which I did but ever since, I get this NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK.
I read every possible thread about this issue here and elsewhere and tried all methods like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Z6zTfe-sC4
None of it worked out for me.
I tried another Android firmwares (4.3 Etisalat UAE, 4.2.1 Etisalat UAE and finally 4.3 T-Mobile Germany)
The reason, I chose Germany is because when I did first the hard reset before installing the UAE firmware, the phone was in German, so I had to choose English.
Now, obviously something in the UAE firmware is not compatible with the phone, maybe modem, basband...I don't know.
How do I know which firmware to download from sammobile and from which country.
I'm not even sure that it's Germany! It could be Austria, Swiss and even Germany has many operators, O2, T-mobile, Vodafone etc......
Is it even possible to restore the phone to it's very original software after trying all of these Firmwares? I doubt it.
One more thing, from the threads I read here and there about this problem, this issue has to do with the IMEI but it's not my case I think.
When I hit *#06# I get a regular IMEI, nothing lost.
PLEASE HELP!
Thank You in advance
Take it back to your friend. It's either stolen and imei blacklisted or region locked now you updated it to 4.3.
Search and read to find out more.

hehehe!
This friend of mine works at the Norwegian Embassy and his phone he got it from the Norwegian staff there, but it was bought outside the country.
And he has been using it for over a year .
Anyways, I went to samsung and it's either software or motherboard because the IMEI is showing on the device meaning it's written on the software but it got corrupted on the hardware.
will see
waiting for their call
Motherboard
