[Q] windows phone 7 unlock

Is it possible to unlock these phones, does it just ask for a code or how is it done, would like to know, do any of the phones come factory unlocked.

Yes it's possible to unlock the phones.
What phone are you looking at for unlocking?

Phones to unlock
I wanna either get a htc surround or a Lg quantum. I will pick one up Monday when they come out just nor sure which one yet.

I'm not sure weather they will come unlocked but I can only speak for the UK, the HTC HD7 was locked to o2 as were other phones on respective networks (orange etc).
You CAN get unlock codes though, I managed to. You might have to wait a few days after purchase (I had to wait 5 days) as the phones are that new the IMEI numbers aren't in any databases yet. Not sure if this would apply to the US though as the phones have been around for a bit now elsewhere.

For the omnia 7, direct unlock here:

HTC surround isn't doing so well in terms of reviews and what not. I'd reconsider that.

Lg quantum
I think i will go for the lg instead as i want the full keyboard, where can i find someone to unlock these win7 phones.

First of all decide where you are buying your phones from. Some of the providers like O2 do not lock their devices.
For the other devices which come locked there are quite a lot of sites which gives you the unlock code within minutes or max 1 day.
Also you can check how much your provider is charging to unlock the device. Usually the charge between your provider and the ones outside is not that huge and if that is the case it is always better to get it unlocked from your provider.

My carrier that actually has win 7 phones wont give you an unlock code for 30 days and want 75 bucks after that, so im looking for an aftermarket company to unlock the lg quantum on bell in canada and also unlock a rogers samsung focus on rogers.

you guys
i'm concerned about this unlocking business. if an iphone comes originally unlocked there's of course 0 problem, but if the simlock gets removed using some software or code and the phone gets its software updated, the simlock comes right back. i know there weren't any wp7 updates yet, but do you think this situation also concerns wp7 devices?

u r talking about jail breaking here not sim unlocking.
Once you sim unlock your phone the only advantage is you can use the SIM of any carrier in it and no future updates would be locking it back.
The scenario you told would only come if you find a way to modify the reg settings to use the phone as a usb storage or something like that. in this case once you update ur phone with a wp 7 update ur hack would stop working till u find and tweak ur registry settings again

thanks for replying, but i actually was talking about sim unlocking. i heard that if the iphone is originally locked to some carrier e.g. at&t, the simlock gets removed using a code or software and the phone gets an update, the simlock returns. i was wondering whether this scenario concerns wp7. either way, it's always best to buy a phone that's originally sim unlocked (more expensive...)

The phones are initially prepared unlocked from the manufacturers like HTC. Carriers like orange than orders phones for them which they ask to be locked to Orange SIMS. There would be an unlock code to enable the handset to accept all the SIM's as the handset was made like that. If you contact your carrier like Orange they would in turn contact HTC and get the unlock code from them. If you contact any third party from the web they calculate this unlock code and msg or mail you (God knows how... Quite a lot of people have asked in XDA and there is no reply to this other than silence)
So if you SIM unlock your phone it is done. All your future updates for the OS would be done via zune and there is no way your handset would get locked again..
Hope everything is clear....

thank you, all is clear now

Successful unlock codes
Hi guys,
Just want to let you know that my Focus finally arrived this Monday, as soon as I got it I sent the IMEI and payed to the ebay guy nckzone, this seller is amazing, in 2 hours he sent me the unlock code to my paypal email address, the code worked just great.
The next day (Tuesday), my girlfriend's HTC Surround arrived and so I proceed to ask him if he also unlocks HTC Surround (this is because we live in Costa Rica and ICE's network is lock because of AT&T's policies), and he told me he can do those as well, so I payed and in 30 minutes he replied with the code. Great service for real...
If somebody needs to buy unlock codes for WP7, I think this guy can. The link of the auction is this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Unlock-Samsung-Focus-i917-Omnia7-Galaxy-Tab-CODE-/140482107888?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20b562d9f0#ht_2581wt_1139

Damn. Man! My Focus will arrive in just a few days. I had to have it shipped. I really hope his magic will work on mine as well. Although I really hate AT&T for forcing Samsung to lockdown on the unlock codes for the US-released Focus. It's not like they're the only Telecom company that matters.
Well, enough trolling. =)) Thanks for the heads up.

Galaxy Nexus unlock

Hello,
This is my first post after being referred to you guys for help from a couple of friends.
Was soooo happy to become an owner of a new galxy nexus from 3 on pay as you go. Was given a number to 3 to be able to unlock it and was told it would be no problem.
Tried to do that as soon as I got home and was told they couldn't locate the IMEI number and would take 2 weeks for it to be sorted out!
Obviously I'm dying to use my lovely new phone and so upset I've not got this problem. Is there anything else I can do to unlock the phone?
Thanks

The Nexus S (or any Nexus branded phone) shouldn't be locked. Did you tried different SIM?

Yep should work right away with any carrier... worst case scenario you have to enter the APN settings manually.

That's not true. If you buy it from a carrier they will have it locked to their network. Be patient, the unlock code should come soon. The GN is still brand new

that's interesting. i also thought, that the nexuses are never locked?! isn't it a statement by google, that a nexus phone always has to stay free, no matter where it's sold?
well, mine however is not locked, even though i bought it from a carrier...

if this is a CDMA phone if youre talking about the ESN of the phone and they flashed a different firmware for a different carrier [i.e. Sprint to Cricket] they will not release the ESN...call your carrier if CDMA and ask them the status of the ESN it usually starts with 268 or 270...
if this is a GSM phone...well it should be unlocked by default

Just for the record, I'd like to confirm, that my GN is coming from Vodafone Ireland, in the shop they said it is SIM locked to VF-IE, but when I tried different SIMs, irish/non-irish either, all worked well, no sign of the network lock.

yeah GNex should be unlocked

Anyone can get unlock code for AT&T Samsung Galaxy S2 skyrocket

I just got the Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, and I can't get it unlocked by apps from Google play, so I have no way to use the phone. Can anyone help me to get the unlock code? I will appreciate and pay some fee for your advice. If you think you can do it, please pm me and I will provide the imei number of the phone.

Yes I have used their services and you get the code within 1-6 hrs most of the times.
Yes there is a software hack for unlocking these phones but non of the developers have made it public like they did it for Other phones is Galaxy S series. These software hacks are available as paid solution through some repair box (S-box for e.g) or some via websites on per unlock credit basis.

Thanks everyone. I was not patient enough to, so I got code from Ebay.

good choice...cheap as hell on there and its fast

Unlock your Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket Instantly
I've notice that there are free apps in the Market that are able to unlock some versions of the Samsung Galaxy S series. Unfortunately after much research I forced to the conclusion that the Skyrocket is not one of the supported devices by those free apps.
Shopping around for an IMEI unlock code yielded nothing less than US$24.50. That was until I turned to Ebay. There are several solutions offered there but the one that appealed at an unbeatable price and 100% success rate was from the seller "aprivate".
Your phone will be unlocked via USB with a few clicks of the mouse Instantly. Absolutely seamless service.
Head on over to ebay and search for the seller aprivate or check out their website UnlockClient.com Unlock solutions are NOT limited to the Skyrocket but you can get all your models unlocked their instantly too.
They have great offers which despite my extreme satisfaction is another reason that I am taking the time out to write this review.
Try Them Out Now...

paid but didnt get the code yet. its been 20 hours now
Hello!
I paid them for the unlock code but they didnt me the code yet. Tried calling them but they dont pickup. emailed them with no answer. Does that happen to other people or is it just me?

Third party unlocking was made illegal in the us about 2 weeks or so ago..

Omg.
I am never going to use that phone in this country ever not even going to start the phone on any US carriers. After unlocking, I am sending it to my mom and she stays out of US.
Will that be okay?

Im not sure. If the phone was originally bought and sold in the us, then probably not, unless the original carrier were to unlock it. Was just mentioning that perhaps you had not gotten a reply from that site because they're figuring out their legal status, as well as if they can fulfill your order or must refund you.

Wrong. I asked via the unlock portal and received the unlock code in about 8 hours.

Free unlock from AT&T
I was also able to (after spending some time on hold) get an unlock code directly from AT&T. I do have an AT&T account, have been with them for a long time, and do NOT have a contract. I also bought the phone used.

This won't unlock your phone, but you can use it on Cricket or H2O Wireless - even though it's still locked to AT&T - for a LOT less money. $27.00 per month for H2O and $35.00 per month with Cricket - if you use the auto pay option. HTH.

SIM unlock?

Please post experience with S7 SIM (carrier) unlocking here, specifically third party websites that offer an unlocking service.

It works but you have to know what you're doing with it. Did you contact Tmobile for unlock code. We unlock and blacklist repair the Sprint, Tmobile, etc. The Tmobile ones have to go through that app during the process

yea man i called...they sent an email with instructions.. email stated this phone doesn't require an unlock code as it has a built in unlock app. follow the directions below blah blah balh
bottom line, it doesn't work. why? because there's hidden rules and crap that need to be met 1st by t-mobile. prepaid people need to spend at least 100 dollars in refills before the phone is eligible. post paid people need to have the phone active on t-mobile for a minimum of 45 days and your account cannot be cancelled during that time.
well seeing as how i'm on prepaid... i walked in, made a new customer purchase as a post paid user, then cancelled my line after i got my gear vr and netflix code... which wasn't even 30 days. I can't unlock my phone, So I'm now on prepaid gonna see if I can after 100 dollars in refills

I use ebay to get my unlock codes, unlocked maybe a dozen phones in the last few years and never had any issues with anyone.

A couple reliable sites I've used many times are www.unlockbase.com and www.cellunlocker.net . There's also a thread over on the s6 general forum of a member named stifilz that can unlock your device via USB cable, his service is free but a donation is always a nice gesture. Good luck!

Hi can anyone help? I bought an At&t S7 Edge on amazon and got the unlock code from the vendor and it apparently worked. My only issue is that it'll only work with the sim that was in the phone when I entered the code. If I use another one the phone keeps displaying "insert sim". Thanks already for your replies

Thanks for the reply and there's 1 more things I need to mention: I'm using the phone overseas (Haiti) as it's still under At&t contract. Now to answer your questions no it doesn't ask for the unlock code anymore but like I said it only works with the non At&t
sim I used when entering the unlock code.

s7 (sm-930f) lock to Austrian A1 was not able to be unlocked by unlockbase.com. However, the nck from cellunlocker.net worked well.

Ok so what im mentioning is something im still not getting quite well, but i saw before many samsung phones S6, S7, Note... etc that have the international firmware 9XXF/FD even when the phone is actually a T-Mobile version or AT&T, in download mode you will be shown the real phone model but the firmware isn't. Of course through Odin with a PC you won't be able to flash the phone with a firmware besides the one designed for it. If you actually wanna flash the phone you'll need the original firmware, i tried it before and flashed a Verizon S6 that had the international 6.0 firmware on it through Odin and as you might guess i got an error as the device didn't match the firmware, when i actually flashed it with the correct Verizon 7.0 firmware it worked and the phone booted and worked alright, except that now the phone is network locked! downgrade isn't possible unless i use a repair firmware and a pit file (not sure if still works with nougat). Then i got the idea of actually using the repair firmware and the pit of the 9XXF version as its network free, and ended up breaking the phone completely. The jig didn't work so couldn't access odin. So i work for a friend of mine in a repair workshop PC, Consoles, Mobiles... blablabla and we have the Z3x box, it did unbrick the phone, and then i started playing with it to see what it can do, and there is an option to actually flash and mix different parts of the firmware, so i went an flashed the bootloader of the Verizon firmware with the rest from the international firmware, it didn't boot at first but somehow i got it into recovery mode and after a format it did boot, and the network was actually unlocked after.
I do not think this method would work on all versions, as some samsung phones uses the snapdragon soc while others uses the exynos soc, and i don't think you can mix those firmwares, but an unlocked exynos model might be unlockable with the international firmware, of course considering the risk of breaking the phone, but if you're lucky as i was and have one of those boxes you shouldn't be much afraid.
Something else i'd like to mention, is that the Z3x can actually fully backup the phone, and i don't mean a nandroid backup like TWRP but like a full partitions backup, and the idea i got but didn't test is if you have for example a locked S7 and an unlocked one and same model so let's say 930P, you can actually copy the raw partitions from the unlocked one to the locked one and i don't know, maybe ending up unlocking it too, again didn't test this one as i only have one S7 and its already unlocked (930FD).

Galaxy J7 Sky Pro (SM-S727VL) Root and carrier unlock

Hello everyone,
I'm a little new to rooting android devices. I have a galaxy j7 sky pro that I'm trying to root and unlock from tracfone to use with a different carrier. I have tried with Odin, cf root, supersu, one click root, kingoroot but nothing has worked. Any suggestions ?

They can be carrier unlocked after 1 year of service. If you have forgot to reload or run out of minutes, the timer restarts. This goes for straight talk and tracfone (as far as I know).
I also have a J7 Sky Pro and i really need it carrier unlocked and would like it rooted. I am currently figuring this thing out so i may be able to help.

anyone get anywhere on these tracphones yet???

here's a reply to the after one year unlock above, if I wanted to hear that I wouldn't be here. I OWN this phone, I have a receipt where I purchased the phone cash from a retailer. There was no agreement, issued, signed, nor agreed to what I had to do with the phone after I purchased it. If I choose to unlock it and use it on any network I choose including ones out of the USA, that is my business. Now as far as bootloader, ok it's unlocked, now what is the next move here??? Sorry to sound crass but if you can't add to the conversation with REAL information stay on the porch.

Tracfone security is tough. The only possible way to root it would be to find a leaked engineering firmware online somewhere and flash it to the phone. Then try king root. Also, unlocking would be kinda useless for this phone. The bands for this phone do not support ATT or Tmobile. It's a Verizon device since it ends in VL.
Now if you bought the 737TL version, unlocking would make more sense.

I'm samsung illiterate and really need help.
I hope I'm on the correct thread. I really need help. I won't use the correct terminology but hope someone is fluent in dumb blonde. My phone broke so I went to Wal-Mart and bought the j7 sky pro because it said it's powered by T-Mobile and that's my network. After powering on I was told my SIM wasn't valid. I googled the phone and learned about unlocking. So I went on YouTube to learn how only to discover that it's supposed to automatically show a screen asking for an unlock code. My phone however does no such thing. If I purchase an unlock code how do I enter it? It's really important because I have a 3 year old with special needs and in order to get to dr appointments for him we use uber but to install uber on my new phone I need a code to be sent via text and since my network is locked I can't receive texts. This could literally be a matter of life and death for my child. I can't afford another 100 dollar phone and without uber don't even have a way to get to a store to buy one. Any help would mean so much

Still no luck rooting this phone?

Still nothing for the phone? Don't care about unlocking th3 carrier bc it's NOT GOING TO CHANGE ANYTHING. I want root bc of many other things. Tons of crap on the phone that's unneeded as well as my love for xposed modules...someone possibly has a root file by now?

Where did you get the bootloader ing to flash at?

Type #83865625# (#TFUNLOCK#) and it will prompt for the unlock codes. Yes codes. There should be two of them. As for root, I am working on it. Ive come pretty close already but don't wait for me to do all the work, go find the engineering system or engroot and post it.
