Hello, I am new here. I have been reading for days and days now, and I have come up with a question:
I have a brand new AT&T branded Tilt that I want to unlock. I found the Sim unlocker on the stickie. The question is this, AT&T has already provided me with the unlock code for my IMEI number, so if I just use their unlock code will it stay unlocked forever, even if I flash a new rom to the phone? Are there any benefits to using the XDA Sim unlocker versus the unlock code that AT&T provided to me?? Will I still be able to use the phone anywhere in the world with AT&T unlock code?
And what about those internet sites that claim to unlock your phone for a fee, do they work? Because a friend of mine wants to unlock as well, but is scared of the process found on XDA.
If the AT&T unlock code will work, how do I do it??
Thanks for any help.
Still reading!!

The Unlock Code that AT&T gave you should work fine. Once you do a SIM unlock it be will be unlocked forever.
Thanks for the help! What about the internet sites that you pay for the unlock codes, do they work??
How do I use the AT&T unlock code?
Sorry, but I didn't find any info on the wiki about that.
You put in a non AT&T sim card and it will ask you for a code. You enter a valid code and you are unlocked.
All the Unlocker does is find your unlock code due to a hack on the radio.
I wouldn't be suprised if some of these sites that sell unlocking actually wouldn't just sell the instructions available free on this site.
Its very easy for your friend to unlock his device. Just follow the instructions. Now, don't hold be liable but I'd say there is a 99% change of the hack working. I did it fine. Took me maybe 30 mins to read and then follow instructions.
No Worry, i did the same thing and works..
Call AT&T explain that you need to use oversea SIM at different country while you travel as for business. they will ask your IEMI code and email unlock code within 3 business day, i just get mine and work perfectly without worrying screw up the radio cracking method and $$$ free.
Great this was very helpful. I am hoping to purcahse a Tilt from At&t on my US account then use my China Mobile sim while I am living here in China. The reason I want the Tilt is for the Chinese language software Pleco. How has everyones experience been with the stylus and screen on the Tilt. Are there any other At&t based devices that I should look into or wait for?

I used the free SIM unlocker here and it works great. I like the Tilt, stylus works fine, my finger - not so much lol. I'm looking into getting the Fuze.
I was wondering if anyone might be able to offer direction as to how I might unlock my phone? I bought it straight out 18 months ago and only now have learned it would have been wiser to purchase an unlocked version in the first place! I am not sure if this is possible, but it would be great if anyone had time to offer direction/advice.

Telus Canada is CDMA - not GSM.
I am new to these dual tech phones - so will ask the question. Can CDMA phones be unlocked in the same way GSM's are ?
Thanks bill_in_mtl,
I guess that is my question then So, can the Telus CDMA be unlocked? IF so, how?
Hi, i friend gave an HTC Fuze (GSM) locked on AT&T.
will i be able to use it in europe if i unlock it?
there is some radio-flashing needed or it will just work with any european Sim after the unlocking process?
Sorry, this may seem a stupid question but i'm new to this world
also:
What is the best way(site) to unlock it? i've already looked into that and i know it is a service that needs to be payed off.
Thanks in advice
Ok, it worked, thanks anyway.
re: FUZE unlock for europe
AT&T unlocked mine for free. Just call and ask. I used my FUZE all over Europe and enjoyed very fast speeds from the local carriers there.
Hello All,
I'm newbie in Unlocking and Rooting the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. It's my brother's phone and he sent it to me from US to Egypt, I need now to unlock the phone and my question is,
If I Rooted the phone and unlocked the Bootloader and Flashed a Custom ROM, will I be able to use any SIM card? Or I have to Unlock the phone using the Unlock websites for 29$?
Thanks in advance.
Currently, there isn't a way to root the AT&T version of the Note Edge. The answer to your question is yes, if your are able to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom ROM, you would be able to use your SIM card.
I wouldn't trust any of the websites offering an unlock or root services but that's just my opinion.

I bought an unlock code back in Nov last year, the day that I got the phone. Worked perfectly. Now I can use any GSM SIM cards.

I love the comments full of nothigness...
Care to provide the information so that we can also do it?
And love the replies that are sarcastic in nature.
You've posted more than I have, and all this time you don't know that you can buy unlock codes from various places? It has been discussed to death in the forums.
Anyway, since you want to know, I'll help you out. I bought my code from cellunlocker . net. You need another SIM card that is not your network, plug it in the phone, and the phone will ask you for the unlock code. Put in the unlock code that you bought from the place that I mentioned. Viola! It's permanently unlocked.

Mine is Note Edge T Mobile. Already had Unlocked it. But, my concern is, How could I remove the T-Mobile carrier apps and branding. Also, Can I install the international or Indian Version ROM on this?
Hello everyone,
This is me posting for the first time here.
I've found a really cheap Pixel 3, but it is carrier locked to a Japanese carrier called Softbank. Is it possible to remove the carrier lock by rooting the phone? If not, what are the other options should I pursue to buy it?
With many regards,
Emir.

If it's carrier locked it's more than likely bootloader locked. If so, you can't root the phone and most likely can't do anything about the carrier lock. You could call the carrier and ask them if they'd unlock it or, That's about your only option I'd guess. Unless you can get in touch with the carrier and get them to unlock it, I'd stay away. Cheap or not, it's not worth a dime if you can't use it after you get it. Just my 2 cents worth.
