Unlock my previous phone after upgrading
I have given my sister my old Samsung S22 Ultra and now use a S24 Ultra. I live in America, but my family is from England and my sister still lives there. I assumed the American S22 Ultra was already unlocked, so I didn't even think about unlocking it through T-Mobile before I upgraded. I am now, of course, back in the US and the old phone in the UK. Is there a way for me to unlock the old phone through T-Mobile? I have the IMEI etc, and the phone can surely be linked to my account to prove it was mine. I'm guessing now, but it would have been my daily driver for a year or two. What are my options here?Dumb questions about M2000 hotspot and unlocking
I currently have phones on TMo plans but no mobile hotspot data plans. I recently bought a used M2000 hotspot that was advertised as unlocked (and has a TMo SIM installed). How do I check whether the M2000 is indeed unlocked? I installed a prepaid data SIM from Talksim and get "Invalid SIM". Does this mean the device is still locked? Is there a way to get TMo to unlock without getting on one of their plans? I just want to use this for international travel and don't need to use it at home in the US. I can't seem to access my.mifi (192.168.1.1) when connected via USB to my PC (likely because my router owns that address). Do I need an active data SIM on the M2000 to get to the admin page? Sorry for these newbie questions.
Locked imei…
Last week my brother told me he was unable to use his phone. He said the phone is saying no sim. I called Tmobile and they said the illegal team locked the sim and I would have to write them. I been a customer with Tmobile almost 9 years. I asked if it was a number or email I can contact. She said no I had to write Tmobile. I’m not understanding why the phone is locked anyway.
New Device Activation
I have this old Sprint device I purchased, and I am trying to activate it on my line, and it wouldn't work. I can receive calls but can't make calls. Sprint said the device have to be unlocked. Please, since when does T-Mobile require Sprint devices to be unlocked before being able to use them with the network? Can anyone help?
