I bought one off ebay to unlock my rogers s2 lte (same as skyrocket). Paid $13 and had the code within 24hours. Worked great. I've bought lots of unlock codes for lots of different phones on ebay. You're usually safe since payment is by paypal. I've had a few times where they couldn't give me a code for the imei I submitted but I always got a refund. I find ebay usually has the best prices.

Any 1 knows from where i can get lg g2x unlock code ? i am new here waiting for your response ....
why not call/email T-mobile?
It depends. If you bought it directly from a T-Mobile store you can call them up or email them for the unlock code. They'll ask you for a proof of purchase. If you don't have an account with T-Mobile, AND you purchase it at some other retailer they won't give you the unlock code. This happened to me. T-Mo absolutely refused to honour my purchase through amazon, add that to the fact that I don't have a number with T-Mo, they were very stubborn to not give me the code, even though I bought it for full price.
So, I went online an purchased a code from unlockthatphone.com It's like $15 added to $510 (no tax+free shipping) from Amazon I thought it was a pretty good deal too.

There are lots of 3rd party unlock sources that charge about $10 for it. If you have Tmo and your account is in good stand for 3 months then they send you the code for free.
Pm me< I can help you to get the code

Actually if you pay full price they won't even wait for three months, you'll get it immediately. My problem is that I don't have an account with T-Mo at all. I'm moving out of the US, and the O2X costs way more than the G2X.
Thanks

Thanks theunlock.ca for the unlock solution that you provided.
I used unlockthatphone.com Recieved a working unlock code in 12 hours for $15 Figured that a unlocked G2x would sell better on ebay or where ever if by chance i didnt love this phone to pay the etf. This G2x is staying with me!!!!!

Call tmo for the code or spend 3 bucks for unlock code.
Sent from my Calculator with Android.
where do you buy the code? I called T-mo, and they said they would send me an email in up to 8 days. It's currently 14 days later.
--For the record, I have searched the internet, and ended up wasting over 40 bucks trying to unlock a Touch Pro, which when purchased the guy claimed it was unlocked.

Call T-Mobile again tell them your about to leave like tomorrow or in 2 days work something out with them. If not try a trusted website and read comments before going ahead and purchasing an unlock code. Just giving small tips sorry I don't know any website off the top of my head.

I purchased an unlocking service from ebay when I bought mine in May. Took less than a day for them to process the order and send me my unlock code. Worked like a charm. I paid $10 but just checked and the seller I bought from has lowered their price to like $4.
Here's a link to the one I bought:

Got mine for 3bucks few weeks back, now its 3.88. It works for me.

So this is weird...
I travel out of the country a lot for work, so I called AT&T asking for the unlock code and their response was "Sorry the Atrix 2 is an AT&T Exclusive, and we see that you just renewed your contract yesterday, so we can't provide you with the code"
I'm very confused? I've been an AT&T customer for a number of years - NEVER been late on a payment, and I JUST renewed my contract for 2 years. I don't have any plans of leaving AT&T, so I don't get whats going on?
I see that I can buy the unlock code for $25, but I figured AT&T would be cooperative with this? Any ideas or experience guys?
Thanks!

They won't give anyone an unlock code, but you can buy one off ebay cheap enough or other websites. They want to sell you international travel plans, not allow you to use a sim card for that country!
According to this original Atrix thread, people were calling and AT&T was giving them the unlock code:

AT&T will give you the unlock code .. you must have the phone in your possession for 6 months from the time you renewed.
And this is to unlock the bootloader?

Believe he is talking about the sim unlock
iirc you gotta wait 30 days after getting the phone to have it unlocked (or was that t-mobile?)

Many thanks!
I had asked for it and was told no, but I'll try again in 6 months. I travel and having the sim unlocked is what I need. You saved me some cash, thanks!
Thanks guys! Six months seems like an awfully long time LOL whatever, guess I just have to wait!
You do NOT have to wait 6 months, you have to wait 30 DAYS. They don't want you unlocking the phone inside of the 30 day window. So wait 30 days and call back. If you get a no, hang up and call back in 15 minutes until you get a yes.

You can search ebay for " motorola atrix 2 unlock " or " atrix 2 unlock " you will find alot of sellers that can sell you the code for around $20

Hi
Yes i know there's many threads related to sim unlocking service, but they all seem 6 months old and unlock rates have changed. I was wondering where people have gotten their sim unlock codes in the last couple of months and how much they cost.
ebay $4

I bought mine a month ago for $2.98 from ebay but now the seller sold out thier unlock code. I dont know what happen but before there were alot of people sell unlock code for att one x for under $5. Now only 2-3 sellers and price goes up also (the cheapest price I see is $9 something)
I just wanted to share that I unlocked my UK Orange One XL on eBay.
UK based seller and item no 150986220113
Firstly I read reviews and saw positive international feedback so I went for it. I received my unlock code via email within minutes on a Saturday evening, even though order confirmation states to expect item in 3-4 days.
The best part is it's dirt cheap compared to other unlocking services, ONLY £2.49!
I am not affiliated with seller in any way, just wanted to share this here so others can save some $$ while breaking from carrier chains
While researching this I couldn't find any free methods yet BTW!
I was able to call AT&T and request my unlock. The phone was about 6 months old on contract and I hadn't called them before for such a request. Not sure if it matters. Also I wasn't an international carrier either, not sure how much that matters.
I'm glad you were able to get a successful code for next to nothing

I went thru a variety of hoops to get my one xl unlocked, and wife's x+.
AT&T said no-can-do until the contract expires (which, we always renew, typically early, so does that mean no forever??) on the FIRST phone call.
bought a code of ebay which didn't work. paid cellunlocker.net $15 and didn't work.
called ATT and asked for PUK code, then PIN code, and was given both.
worked.
