[AC Question]

My mom gave me her Lg g3 from sprint. Phone is paid off, she is still on contract with sprint but bought a new phone. I currently have T-Mobile. My mom called sprint and they said they couldn't unlock it remotely, so they gave her a sim unlock code and told her to take it to the new carrier and give them the code to unlock it. I spoke with T-Mobile, and because they are an he away, the lady told me I could enter the code myself. However didn't give me any instructions! How do I do this, do I use my already active T-Mobile SIM card? HOw do I get to the screen to enter the code? Please help!

Welcome to Android Central! Insert the T-Mobile SIM into the phone -- does it prompt you to enter an unlock code?

Also, be aware that the Sprint G3 will not pick up T-Mobile's 4G LTE, since it doesn't support T-Mobile's LTE bands. The Sprint G3 uses LTE bands 25, 26, and 41, while T-Mobile uses 2, 4, and 12. The best you could get would be HSPA+ ("pseudo 4G").
