Dont spam your **** here. Unlocking can be done for free and it should be free.
Where sis you buy yours from? shoudl not be sim locked at all. I would go back and swap it. I bought mine form store in oxford street, none of theres were sim locked.

I have a Atrix 2 AT&T sim locked .If I install a custom rom like Supercharged Atrix, will be unlocked to any network mobile ? I live in Costa Rica, I bought my phone on ebay like new, unmodified and without contract,but I dont have money to buy the unlock code in cellunlocker.net. It is necessary to unlock the bootloader to unlock the sim card ? I Search in all the forum to see if the doubt was resolved but did not find anything.Somebody help me please!!!
No, it's not necessary to unlock the bootloader to have your sim unlocked.
That is a network provider deal.
Our bootloader is currently "UNLOCKABLE".

I don't think installing custom ROM will unlock the phone for all carriers. You have to do unlock separately if you want to use with any provider other than AT&T.
SIM unlock is entirely separate from changing roms, the bootloader and all that stuff.

Currently our bootloader is LOCKED. Installing the SC ROM will not unlock your phone. To unlock it search on eBay for an unlock code. This right now or the only way to unlock your phone.

He means to SIM unlock the phone, not bootloader unlock....
a sim unlock is about $16.00 USD, just search ebay for atrix 2 sim unlock code.
I got mine from here

Hi everybody,
I have already flashed a new ROM (ICS 4.0.4) and I have superuser permissions (root) but,

What can I do?
Thanks in advance.
Fernando.

If it's an unlocked GSM phone, it will work with any GSM carrier. I don't know if your phone is carrier locked or not, though. Also, custom roms don't control which carrier you can use.

You don't need root or ANYTHING to unlock your phone.
1) get SIM that is not the network the phone was originally on
2) buy unlock code from local dealer or trusted ebay seller. You have to give them your IMEI I believe
3) put that SIM in and when prompted, enter unlock code. Phone is now unlocked for any SIM card for eternity

Hi Guys,
I've sold my sensation and I had assumed that because I had rooted unlocked and flashed an unbranded stock ROM that it would be SIM free, but apparently its not.
Can anybody recommend a remote sim unlock service for me to use to unlock it?
By the inconceivable amount of power that Google may grant you.....

As far as I know, my phone's carrier locked from "3" from Austria. This is my very first android phone so please bear with me if I don't get what you mean!
The very first thing I did when I received the phone was to switch the Stock Firmware from Austria to Taiwan's (I thought by doing this my phone would be automatically SIM unlocked lol...)
I followed this method

I have tried running GalaxSim Unlock and Galaxy S Unlock and I'm still unable to SIM unlock my galaxy r phone...
I kept googling for SIM unlock solutions but all I get is commercial unlock results from google... and I couldn't find any threads here discussing about SIM unlock solutions... ANY help/comments would be much appreciated!!!:crying:
UPDATE: I didn't actually run Galaxy S Unlock all the way to step 3, I only ran it to step 2(since at the end of step 2 it indicated that I would have to run step 3 only after unlocking.) and my SIM was still locked even after restarting my phone, so I did not run step 3. Please do correct me if my hypothesis is wrong!
UPDATE2: I tried entering this on my phone and nothing came out. *#7465625#
UPDATE3: Does anyone know how to check if your Samsung Galaxy R i9103 is the CDMA or GSM version??
I think there is only GSM version of R...
