Hardware unlocking works about 30%, worst case you pay 1000s of rupees to alter the device and you don’t even get 100% working of the device. This can work but it is not worth risking and destroying your device just to make calls from another provider.
- IMEI or network unlocking: The one that actually works is IMEI or network unlocking, this is by far the simplest one than downloading spam software or paying a dodgy guy to play around with your device’s internal working.

No physical work or downloading any dodgy software, they just click a button then reset your device; this allows you to go any carrier you want.
