This Metro Razr 2024 deal is mainly about a cheap foldable with a one year Metro lock and eSIM activation. The strongest upside is the price, with multiple orders going through around $65 or even $35 for a second line, and the phone can be used on Wi Fi or as a secondary device while waiting. Community testing also points to a possible unlock path on some Android 14 units, especially older November 2024 builds. The main catches are frequent stock and checkout failures, plus many reports that newer Android 15 or March 2025 units stay locked or hit server errors. A good fit if you are comfortable with the wait and the activation hassle.

Common Questions (6)

  • Some units accepted a T-Mobile SIM and worked immediately or for a few days, but many others showed a network-locked message or stopped working. The safest expectation is that it remains Metro-locked until the unlock process or the 1-year timer completes.

  • Sometimes, but only on certain software builds, mainly Android 14 units with older security patches. Many Android 15 or March 2025-update phones hit server errors or never show the permanent-unlock option, while older A14 builds were reported to unlock successfully.

  • Mint SIMs were reported not to work out of the box, and several T-Mobile SIMs also failed. A few specific SIMs from T-Mobile or other carriers did work for some users, but that behavior was inconsistent and not something to count on.

  • No port-in is required for this deal as posted, and several shoppers were able to order with a new number. The listing terms were later changed in the thread, so the requirement may vary by current checkout flow.

  • It is reported to auto-unlock about 365 days after activation. Do not erase the eSIM before the unlock completes; after it unlocks, you can confirm in settings and then remove the eSIM if you want.

  • No ongoing commitment beyond the first month was reported. The service is prepaid, so if you do not pay the next month the Metro line ends, and autopay is off by default unless you enable it.

Here's my instructions that I modified from a post that was posted before (it said wifi off but didn't work for me).

1. Download the Moto unlock tools
2. In developer settings enable ADP
3. Once the phone is connected to the computer (usb and file transfer mode), launch the app, turn off the metro PCS sim and wifi.
4. Click Unlock (which opens up screenshare on you computer (u can make it bigger by putting 980 on the max size,
5. Internet sharing - Click Ok on the Connection Request for Gnirehtet, Also clicking Turn on WIFI and you should see connections in that ghir box
6. Click Open Metro unlock app (WiFi is ON at this point)
7. Click Phone Permanent Unlock then reboot, double check unlock status in about phone

Notes: Idk why the original instructions said have wifi turned off. Because it worked when I had it on. Also, I did have my tmobile sim in the phone and notice the unlock app had errors and switch Metro unlock 180days, but the permanant unlock was gone. I did click reset metro app and reopen Metro Unlock app to see the permanent unlock again.

Here are pics.

If someone on A15 can try this and let me know if it works. My phone was on A14 w/ Jan 2025 Security Update (phone box dated 1/16/2025)

Edit: Doesn't work with Android 15 March 2025 Security Update
Thanks a lot. I was able to permanent unlock my 2nd razr (A14, security update 6/1/2024, phone box dated also in 2024). Something to share, at beginning it didn't work by following the above steps. Then I noticed the airplane mode is shown up on the shared screenshots. So I turned on the airplane mode thru the process and it worked. Fortunately my 2nd razr came yesterday with A14 and the old security update. But my 1st razr came earlier with A14, security update 3/1/2025 and phone box dated in 2025, I was unable to unlock.
In addition, I noticed some difference between these two phone. When the 1st razr connected to the computer, if I select file transfer, the Moto unlock tool can't recognize the phone. I had to select no data transfer. When the 2nd razr connected to the computer, I can select file transfer and the Moto unlock tool can recognize the phone.
I do have a question to shortyman24, because we haven't activated the Metro-esim to unlock the phone, now since it's permanently unlock, can I activate the Metro-esim and install it on the phone? Would it impact the unlock? Thanks again, shortyman24!

So the screenshots are mixed, i only screenshot some screens before and after i saw the unlock. The pc program i had screenshot later on to figure out the steps. Since after the unlock i cant open up the unlock app anymore. I haven't activated esim yet but it should not be a problem since its already permanently unlocked. So its confirms it only works with A14 and A15 users are SOL.

Looks like its Back In Stock was able to order a 2nd phone for $35. Pray for RNG gods for an Android 14.

I was finally able to unlock one of the two I ordered. Thank you so much! Currently working on the second one. It didn't work on the first try, I had to be persistent but it paid off.

I think its 2 per account, I wanted to try to add a 3rd line but have the same message as well. If you want more you probably need to create new account/email and get it for $65.
