hey what is going on everybody over on
YouTube so in today's video I'm showing
you guys how you can lock one of your
metro pcs phones
there is no cost necessary to do this
and I'm gonna be showing you guys coming
up next so as mentioned I'm going to be
showing you guys today how you can
unlock one of your metro pcs phones and
there's a number of reasons where you
may want to do something like this one
reason might be because you just want to
of course bring your phone over to
another carrier and you need it to be
unlocked maybe you want to sell your
phone on a platform like eBay or maybe
even over on Craigslist and of course
having an unlocked phone appeals to
buyers so there are a couple of great
reasons right there why you might want
to unlock your phone so it's really not
complicated and I'm going to show you
guys on this is my old lg phone and I'm
going to show you guys on this one but I
do want you to know that in order to
unlock your MetroPCS phone you for some
reason hats you have had service on the
phone for at least three months so do
keep that in mind and without further
ado let's just get into it this is my
homepage
so right here pcs you see that symbol
like a door with a keyhole that is what
you're going to go to to find it so
device unlock and then if you'd like to
permanently request that your device
would be unlocks now because I do not
have any service on this phone right now
I don't know what is actually going to
do but normally you would just press
this button and it will unlock it for
you if you have three months of service
if you throw out three months with a
metro
now since this isn't active let's see
what happens okay so it says unlocked
approve so even without phone service I
was able to get the phone unlocked so I
can use this for another carrier now so
that's pretty awesome
I will have to restart my phone for this
to go through but I just wanted to share
that with you guys I hope that helps
okay so as you guys can see it did work
even on the phone without any service so
that's awesome to know that I don't have
to add service again to unlock it
because if I do want to sell it or
something like that obviously I don't
want to have to add service on it again
I do hope that this video helps you guys
out if you have any questions feel free
to leave them below now if for some
reason on your device you do not see
that icon that I was showing you
possibly go into your settings and
search for it there and there you might
discover it thank you guys so much for
watching this video hope you enjoyed it
see you next time
