I was wondering is it possible for me to use the “Lumia Software Recovery Tool” and update my phone? or by doing that I would lock my phone again for the Verizon network and would end up with a lot of trouble.
To answer your question. Yes you can use LSRT. And no you will not get into trouble with Verizon, nor will LSRT "lock" your phone. It was never locked in the first place. At least not for GSM and LTE. The CDMA is locked to Verizon and ONLY Verizon can unlock it...no body else.
When you see the term "unlocked" on Ebay or any other place; it's just a marketing scheme and nothing more.
