While iPhone 6 users cannot get T-Mobile unlock app non-Apple devices that support it can become SIM free in no time. This is a no-cost application created by the carrier but at the moment it supports only two gadgets, Sony Xperia Z3 and Samsung Galaxy Avant. If you happen to have a second phone besides your iPhone you might like to distantly unlock it using this program.
There are possible T Mobile phone unlock problems we’ll mention below. Still let’s begin with the free T-Mobile unlocking software that you can download directly from this U.S. carrier if you have one of the two smartphones mentioned above.
Once again, you cannot unlock your iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 5S, 5c, 5 or other model from T-Mobile with this program.

T-Mobile Phone Unlock Issues
*I get an alert in the notification tray after unlock.
If you have such a problem you should restart your phone.
*I cannot get temporary unlock via WiFi network.
Temporary unlock can be only achieved via cellular data connection. WiFi doesn’t support this type of SIM unlocking.
*How do I know when my temporary unlock expires?
Once it expires you will get an expiration message.
*Why can’t I unlock my Android phone with the app?
You have to make sure you are eligible for this unlock. Even though this is a free app to use directly on the smartphone you still have to have a T-Mobile active account in good standing, clean IMEI and clean device.
*I get a message that server is not responding.
You should check your internet connection.
