Need help anyone know how to sim unlock my lg volt i am from philippines. Im using globe prepaid lte sim. How to active my carrier ? Help any one

Thanks
 
I believe sprint can sim unlock these for international use?

I don't know any way to do that besides having active service and asking them to though.
 
What is CDMA? But my globe prepaid is LTE support. and but my old sim is sprint prepaid what do you mean that sprint can sim unlock international?. And how to get my MSL code?

Code Division Multiple Access, a cellular mode that's used by some carriers in North America and China. Elsewhere I don't know, most of the world is GSM and UMTS.

Do you use United States band CDMA and LTE in the Philippines? I don't think so. Could be worth checking it though willmyphonework.net

You get your MSL(Master Subsidy Lock) code from the carrier, Sprint, assuming your contract is fulfilled or ETF paid.

That means there's partial LTE support, but nothing else. Likely doesn't have all the LTE bands for that carrier. Which means you'll probably have problems with coverage and getting a usable signal. Also unless the phone and service has VoLTE(Voice over LTE), it won't be able to do voice calls.

It actually states B41, 2500MHz only, that means it will definitely have problems getting a signal inside buildings. That's why carriers often use lower frequency bands in addition, to improve their network coverage in buildings.

So IMO I don't think this phone is going to be really suitable and usable on anything other than Sprint or possibly Verizon or China Telecom. CDMA bites yet again! :thumbsupdroid:
