I recently bought a Nokia lumia 520 from Walmart (AT&T) USA.... Im from South Africa and have to head home soon due to family emergency..
I have tried a unlocking service that normally provide you with and code but they couldnt generate a pin....
Also AT&T wont release the unlock code as the phone has not been active for more that 6 months.
I do have the Imei number..
Could someone plz advise me what to do as I dont want to throw this phone away ..
Thanks in advance..
Please , anyone with info or help ???

Can the Lumia 820 be SIM unlocked? I know at least for the At&t version of the 920 it cannot. I am on T-mobile in the US and even though they have the 810, I want the 820 instead. The 810 is hideous.
You need to ask your provider. In Europe there's a law that says you must provide a free unlock service - you can't sell simlocked phones otherwise, maybe there's similar thing in the US.
An Option

I honestly think 90% of unlock websites are scam. If you're going to pay for it - it's best to visit some kind of network outlet or Nokia Care and see how can they help you.
Ok, can i unlock the cellphone on Nokia care service?
i think that is better on nokia that the page.
Its says it costs $999.99 USD to unlock my phone! WTF

actually . that's like a default price if they don't have the code. I've definitely used this site for my sony ericcson play, for about $15 . its legit . im considering ottawapc.ca ... kinda nervous about that one, but cellularunlocker is legit.
Edit:
Hello, I want to say to everyone who has whatever it is "Sim Locked" phone to use this site cellunlocker .n et . The people are very kind and serious, I guarantee it 100%
Hi,
Has anyone who tried the site and had any success?
I have lumia 820 locked from Orange France I don't know is there a way to use my phone with other networks..
Excuse me if I have wrong spelling.
Sorry to bump such an old topic, but I thought you guys might like to know that you can get unlock codes for AT&T 820's now. I bought one yesterday from cellunlocker.net and it worked. It was $15. I've also been reading that people have successfully been able do a chat with AT&T and get it for free.
Hey guys,
I bought a lumia 920 from ebay last week . i didnt know that it was Locked to AT&T .Im currently in Srilanka and there is no AT&T service here.
it asks for an unlock code when i insert my sim.
I contacted AT&T with their live chat system, they told me that they can provide me the code for free but they asked me for an AT&T Account then they can give me the code asap.
so i dont have an AT&T ..
can't any of you guys who have AT&T accounts help me get the code ? ?
Thanks alot....

is somebady enough kindness and help us!
Hello there!
As this phone doesn't really have its own dedicated area in the forum , i just felt this is the right place to ask for help.
I own this device which was bought on contract from orange romania , and unfortunately it is sim locked.
I have contacted htc regarding this issue and they checked my IMEI but they said that my phone doesn't appear to be locked nor branded by any carrier. In other words , this phone has got a lock on it , but it wasn't htc that put it there, but orange romania.
Do you know any way to unlock it? I would go into a service store but it's hard to find somebody that is capable of unlocking my phone, i have already tried 3 stores in my area and all of them returned a negative result.
I live in italy so i can't go back to orange and ask them to unlock my phone. Even so, if you're still on contract , they charge you 100€ to unlock your device, which is absolutely insane , my phone costs NEW , UNLOCKED 130 € on ebay.
Therefore , any thoughts? I'm willing to test some stuff if you have any idea. Of course , i wouldn't want to brick my phone as i really doubt i can find someone to unbrick it around here, but anyway , i'm open to new ideas.
Thanks in advance!
Hi everybody, I'm a little desperate, exactly one year ago I purchased 4 phones nokia 1020 on ebay usa, but then I realized they were locked by network rogers canada. I searched many websites (cellunlocker.net, samunlocks.net) to buy the unlock codes without success, all pages return: CODE NOT FOUND. Please I'll be very grateful if anyone can help me or if someone lives in canada to help me get the codes, or if you can unlock the cell by software. I am willing to pay any price, thanks
