Ask the guy you bought from what the activation string is and enter it into the octoplus shell software
Thanks, I have emailed pretty much everyone I could find, GSMFORUM and the guy I bought it from, support at Octoplus, and so on, so far not one reply (except from yours). This is really pi$$ing me off, after spending a small fortune only to have it not work after the first box didnt come. Not the greatest set of support for this product I am finding, at least not yet.

Searching for server...
Server greeting: "Card updates server v.2.2"
Searching installed cards...
Found card with s/n (REMOVED)
Updates count: 0
Updates limit: 3
Activations:
- LG - NO
- Samsung - NO
- JTAG - NO
- Huawei - NO
- FRP - NO
Activation string checking failed!
Please, contact to Your reseller.

Hey man, can you check your devices, is your card also unknown, or is this my possible issue? I know if Windows cannot read the internal card, then Octoplus may be having issues, can you check your Windows OS and confirm for me?

I am having a problem with my new Octoplus box, I fire up the software, it tells me I have to update the box first, sure NP, except that I cant activate it or register it until I am in the software and I cannot get in the software until its updated. The box purchased was activated (supposedly) for LG, thats why I bought it, for the LG activation. However I cannot find the activation string to enter because I cannot activate the box/card so I am in a cat/mouse chase.

Any ideas (note, I blanked the serial number from the picture but it appears authenticate):
Try without being connected to the internet.

Hey, do the unlocking services work on Restricted devices? Step dad got screwed over by Sprint ($50 bill somehow became $105 and no one can tell him why or will do anything about it) and now he has a Restricted G7 and has moved on the Cricket wireless.

Does the unlocking only work on unlocking the SIM card? Anyway to get the phone unrestricted?

Needs help.

Hello. I bought LG G7 Sprint variant. Try network unlock with remote service, but no luck with it. There is no download mode on it, no fastboot, only has access to recovery. When turn it on, after that all off times have pop up message "Device restricted. It is still owned to Sprint....." And last: can't use WiFi on it. It switch to any WiFi network, but no internet on it. When connect it to PC via USB, PC shows that it is unknown device. Please, take me any support with this.

PC don't recognised it. Unknown device. May be it is blocked because of restricted or motherboard is damaged?
Try a different charger and a different port on the computer that means the connection is faulty could be charger or the port on either your computer or your phone
