Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to unlock my phone from T-Mobile to use with European operators?
There are tons of websites online that ask money for that and I need to provide them with my IMEI, does it really work? Do I really need to pay for that?
Thank you for your help
Try ringing up TMobile and ask them for it(tell them that you will need to use different carriers in other countries during your travels)

Looking for some recommended sites to buy the Unlock code off of.
I don't wanna get scammed, but I don't wanna pay a lot [preferably no more than $20-$25]
Or someone that can verify this rumor I heard, That you can take your phone into your carriers store, and they can/will unlock it for free, if you say you're going to be out of the country.
Thanks
try resetting it or downloading stock rom and wiping the phone down if ur phone has SDCARD
Heh you misunderstood me.
I mean unlock from mobile service.
Turns out you CAN get it unlocked for free from your carrier. so whoohoo for that!
Hi,
Guys can anyone tell me what is locking/unlocking devices ??? I live in Egypt, but one of my relatives lives in America I'm going to send it to their home so they can send it to Egypt, which site should I buy from ?. What if I unlocked it will I still have to pay and by unlocking it means I can use anyother carrier ? Software also will be as the international device ? Is it illegal ?
I need any piece of information anyone can help ?
Thanks in advance
Unlocking your phone means your phone will no longer be "tied" to a carrier.
For example I have a T-Mobile Vibrant (from USA), that I use in Canada on Wind, because it was unlocked.
It is not ILLEGAL, (some countries yes, check with your local laws).
I know unlocking blackberries was difficult (from my experience) and you would have to pay a couple dollars for it.
Other phones you just click a button and its unlocked.
Choose the phone you want to buy, and google phone name + unlock.
Hope that helps.

Hi I'm from India,Kerala. We have a large number of people working on gulf countries so a large number of gulf handsets. And most of them are Samsung, and most of them are region locked. In the past it wasn't an issue thanks to XDA i used regionlockaway.apk to remove the region lock but it's not possible now with the new handsets.
What I'm asking here is a cheapest yet reliable way to unlock the phone. I think there is no software trick out there which is free so I'm willing to pay but I want to know the most reliable and most cheapest services out there If anyone know please do help.
Thanks in advance :good:
I have a T-mobile Avant that I would like to use my Metro PCS sim card with. The device unlock app does not work, refers me to Tmobile Customer Care. & they do not care, I have not been able to get any help from them. I am not arguing with them anymore. I am rooted, can install any custom roms if needed. Please tell me that I can bypass this somehow before I go crazy. Thank you in advance for any help
you can't, gotta get the code from t mobile of find a service that does it
Hi everyone and thanks for the time to read this.
So, recently I purchased a Galaxy S7 from a co-worker. After bringing it to my house I realized it was SIM locked to the T-Mobile carrier. He bought it already used and sold it to me, so I can't unlock trough the T-Mobile customer service.
After an extensive search on the web I found a few paid solutions (unlock sites, Chimera Tool, some android apps). But since I live in Brazil and not the US they end up costing three times their original value due to money conversion.
I found out that you can extract the unlock code from the phone itself through some softwares ( i.e Chimera Tool). So I ask you: there's a free way to do that? I appreciate any help, thx.
Tl;dr: Need a free way to unlock SIM without contact to carrier (T-Mobile)
HI.
I a having this same problem expect. I am however from the usa. I moved tmoblie has no service in new area. They refuse to unlock my model is sm-G930T. Please anyone with any odeals on this problem let me know...
After searching a lot I found a website that fixed the network lock for me. It was also cheaper than the competition. unblockmysamsung.com
It took only a couple days to fix and I did through Paypal so if it didn't worked I could have asked for a refund.
Unlock method
