Bypass Tmobile Unlock App by Flashing?

[youngquazy]

I know that simply flashing the unlocked firmware won't unlock the phone. I'm sure that we all know this. But wouldn't the unlocked firmware get rid of the T-Mobile Unlock App, therefore allowing you to then be able to input an unlock code?

This will not work. It send your IMEI to tmobile servers and checks on their end and if it can be unlocked it is unlocked, you can not do it like that.

Right, I get get what you're saying. And what you are saying is true on Tmobile's firmware. But What I am asking is wouldn't flashing the unlocked version firmware get rid of T-Mobile's unlock app (it would), therefore allowing you to enter a regular unlock code that you can get a lot cheaper (like $10 bucks) than a "TMobile Unlock App Service" (like $140) to unlock your device.

Also wouldnt work. That is not a think that T-Mobile supports anymore. It all goes through the unlocking app. If you try it, its probably not going to work. Try it if you want.

If he has a proper unlock code and the ability to input it as though it came from another carrier then T-Mobile would have nothing to do with it. Why wouldn't it work with the all carrier firmware? The hardware is the same across all carriers. Inputting an unlock code does not contact the carrier, right?

This guy gets my point haha. Want to try it out? Paying $10 for a "normal" unlock code is way better than $140+ for someone to unlock through Tmobile's app.

I tryed this, i get the codes (both codes, before and after flashed) from z3x pro, phone accept codes and say was unlocked but still showing invalid sim

wrong comment , please disregard

it doesn't matter what you do even if you can get the phone to ask you for the unlock code is still will not unlock it there are ways to get it to ask you for the code like shortcut Master Plusfrom the Play Store but it still will not work

 

[trinilu27]

there are ways to get it to ask you for the unlock code like shortcut.pro .....and samoble....but it doesn't matter because even if you can input the unlock code it still will not work it will say that it's unlocked but then it prompts you every single time it does not work the only way around it is to pay to have it unlocked
