Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Unlocking

Hola,

I acquired a Sprint Galaxy Note 4 that I am trying to unlock. Unfortunately Sprint website does not exist  anymore and i can't get any help from them. How do i get my phone unlocked since Sprint and T-Mobile are not one? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank  you!!

    How to I get to Sprint to help if T-Mobile cannot?

    Gracias.

    T-Mobile can't SIM Unlock this device for you.  Either take it to a local cellphone repair shop and pay them to SIM Unlock it for you or return it to where you bought it.

    Alright. Thank you for your advice. Now I know I shouldn't waste time thinking T-Mobile would help.

    Are you a Tmobile customer? If not, they can't assist.

    Thank you gramps28. I checked the link and here are the eligibility criteria I found:

     

    La elegibilidad del dispositivo se determina de la siguiente manera:

    • El dispositivo debe ser vendido por T-Mobile. (My device wasn;t sold by T-Mobile but by Sprint many years back.)
    • El dispositivo no puede estar denunciado como perdido, robado o bloqueado. (My device not reported stollen...)
    • La cuenta asociada con el dispositivo debe estar al día. (No idea who the previous owner was)
    • El dispositivo también tiene que cumplir todos los requisitos de desbloqueo para dispositivos con planes pospagados o prepagados que se indican abajo.

    Elegibilidad para desbloqueo para dispositivos móviles con planes pospagados

    • El dispositivo debe haber estado activo en la red T-Mobile por al menos 40 días en la línea que solicita el desbloqueo.
    • Si el dispositivo se financió o arrendó a través de T-Mobile, deben haberse hecho todos los pagos y el dispositivo tiene que estar totalmente saldado.
    • Si el dispositivo está asociado con una cuenta cancelada, el saldo de la cuenta debe ser cero.
    • T-Mobile puede solicitar el comprobante de compra o información adicional a su criterio y es posible que se apliquen otras excepciones.

    I have no answer to many of these requirements. How do I get T-Mobiole to verify them and determine if my device qualifies for unlocking?

     

    Thanks for your help
