Can this be unlocked?
Per the description:
Carrier: AT&T
Even if they unlock it unless you’re on at&t network you will not get the software updates.
Upon research, all other firmwares are compatible. So i should be able to flash the factory unlocked firmware and use it?
Although you can always buy a $25 prepaid AT&t card and it will update.
I use AT&t prepaid so it’s a moot point for me anyways. But I purchased an AT&t LG V60 before I was on AT&t. And I worked around that but I just buying a month plan and use that sim. And it got me up to date with the updates.
I also think some other carriers that use AT&t towers will provide you the update. Possibly even the $15 mint mobile card but double check me on that before you buy anything.
Mint uses TMobile towers.
Thanks. I might have been thinking about Straight Talk
