    mg5077 The AN and UN seems to be the same.
    While the UN220 is an unlocked GSM device so it should techinally work.
    And I see it has two of the bands that T-Mobile Supports.
    GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz; LTE Bands 2/4/5/12/25

    So even should they stop supporting the U1900 there's the 850, Band 5

      Myi I've sold the UN and the AN in the past had had pretty much a pleasant experience with the UN. Almost no issues. A few customers needed their APN's manually updated. However, the AN was terrible. The only carriers they worked with were Canadian Carriers. On LG's site, it seems like both were unlocked and both had the same bands...

        SimpleJew That's really strange, are you telling me my phone is defective? i can try to factory reset the device, but i don't think that's going to help. switches to 2g when making and outbound call.

          Myi Hi.
          Can you send me the unlocked lg wine 2 system files (LG-LMY120QM)?
          I'm trying to hack the lg classic (LG-L125DL) to all carriers, and I think that might give me some helpful hints.
          Thanks!

              SimpleJew Many people that have tried to use the UN with T-Mobile, didn't work. Even though it showed service, they missed many inbound calls and had poor reception. I know many people that tried it and have also tried it myself on many devices. If anyone thinks it okay, maybe they just don't realize their missing anything...? Or its different in rural/urban areas (I am in Brooklyn NY)? Whatever the case may be, Since the device doesnt support VOLTE it would probably be unsopporterd when t-mobile sunsets the 2g service.

                  Uri does it help if I give you the system files of an unlocked lg classic that was unlocked by tracfone?

                      Myi You need to install a file explorer which supports root. [Login to see the link] for example.
                      Go to root\system folder, and copy from there 3 folders: app, priv-app and framework, and one file: build.prop.
                      Zip all the things you copied and send the zip archive to me.

                          GOLDFISH I hardly belive so...
                          Unless it's a device that if you reset it the unlocking will remain.

                            Uri I unlocked 6 devices by tracfone the way it works is if you pay them $150 they send you an email with instructions how to unlock it you dial #TFunlock# then put two 15 digits codes and it comes up that the phone gets unlocked and the phone restarts and after a reset it stays unlocked every phone has different codes it has to do with the imei number of the phone
