I had it unlocked by an ebay unlocker using software that I see right in the link above. Geesh I could have screwed this up myself!
Hardware is now listed as LG-M320TV (Brazil?)
My original unit is LG-SP320 for Sprint/Boost.
Initially he screwed up the IMEI and next day had to reset to original IMEI to get Sprint to even recognize the phone as compatible with their network.
The current hardware sees the phone as dual sim but this isn't of significance.
It detects the sim #1.
My issue is that I am using Tello (Sprint MVNO) and can send sms, make and receive calls, browse the internet however I cannot receive SMS.
I have tried receiving sms from various senders.
The same problem exists with either a Tello/Sprint (CDMA) or RedPocket/ATT (GSM) sim card inserted.
That leads me to believe that this is unrelated to the carrier but that there is some identifier in the current firmware that is preventing my phone from being located by the incoming sms messages.
The model name is X Charge and I do see firmware for LGM322 an X Charge for Comcast Xfinity and am wondering if this would be more suitable.
Will this brick the phone and/or lose the unlock???
I have done numerous Factory Resets with no change in the condition.
Good luck with your lottery purchase ;-)
