Enter Subsidy unlock code - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my unlock code today, but don't have another sim card to put in yet. I thought there was a command that could be entered that would cause the phone to prompt for the subsidy code. Anyone know that sequence??

How & where did you get your Unlock code from?

But you can get it for $10.70 from this guy on ebay ....
I did not even need mine unlocked yet , but for $10.70 , just had to do it, got my unlock code in about 15 minutes , and it worked fine ...
Btw you can use file explorer or whatever, browse to /windows , and run simlock.exe and unlock your phone even if you do not have a foreign sim card ...

I've used him several times in the past and never had any problems. Even on a Saturday he got me an unlock code within an hour. During the week - 10-15 minutes.
Do you have a friend with TMobile? Have him/her put their sim in your HD2 and then have them call TMobile from the phone requesting to unlock the phone.
Let them tell TMobile that they are planning on going out of the country and want to be able to use various providers. Tmobile will provide the unlock code to a current tmobile user.

What exactly do you mean by this? I have a TMOUS HD2 coming and will need to unlock it from Tmobile. Are you saying this is all that will have to be done to unlock it?
Thanks, I've done a ton of searching and there are not concise answers to this that I have found.

Dont get excited, , what it means is that rather than have to put a different sim into the phone to automatically bring up the unlock code wizard so you can enter the code, you can start the wizard manually and enter the code, thus you can unlock it whilst you still only have the tmo sim to work with.
Ah, thanks. I figured it wasn't what it sounded like.
So, "the guy from eBay" seems to be the place to go for a quick and successful unlock code? The price is right anyway.
Thanks
Yea. seems to get pretty good feedback. I got mine from O2, took them 6months, lol, but hey, it was free, and i didnt actually need it unlocked.

[Q] Help w/ X10 DoCoMo unlock instructions

Hello All,
I have the Xperia X10 (SO-01B) from NTT Docomo, Japan.
Firmware version 2.1-update1
Baseband version: 2.0.52
Kernel version: 2.6.29 SEMCHost#1
Build #: 2.0.1.B.0.19
I have an unlock code but can't seem to figure out how to enter it into the phone.
When I put in either a T-Mobile or AT&T sim card, the sim card pic at the top of the phone has an "x" in it. I've watched the youtube video about unlocking and I don't get the screen to enter the code.
I've been reading a lot through XDA-developers and other sites and I'm getting conflicting info. Some say I need to flash a new ROM; some say I don't need to.
I'm not real confident flashing a ROM on this phone. Did it with my Treo years ago but I had a better handle on that phone...not so much with this Droid.
One last thing, where I'm staying only has an eMac for my use.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
If I remember correctly, all you had to do was pop in a different sim card (like a T-Mobile or AT&T) and restart your phone. The X10 would then prompt you to enter some sort of unlock code like a sim pin or something like that. With my once AT&T locked X10, any code I would enter wouldn't work. I suggest you fork over the $50 clams or so for a USB Data Cable unlock. It's a program that you pay for and download that gets you one unlock credit that unlocks
your X10. That's what I did and it worked beautifully. Just follow the directions, connect your phone to your comp, the flash tool will do its thing and it should successfully unlock your X10. Hope this helps.

thank you for the help and...
Yep, popped in the different sim card and restarted the phone. But I was never prompted to enter an unlock code. The phone goes right to my welcome screen and shows an "x" over the sim card.
Does the USB data cable unlock require a PC or will it work on a MAC?

Try pressing this combo from the lock screen when you got your SIM that works with the phone in.
Home>Back>Back>Home>Back>Home>Home>Back
That will get you in to the Service Menu. Then go in to the Service Info and press The SIM lock menu.
That gives you a screen that looks like the one i attached.
If your number next to "Network" says 0 you can't unlock it with a code.
Your screen will most likely have [ X ] when it's locked.

Where/How did you get the code?
I have an unlock code but can't seem to figure out how to enter it into the phone.

Believe you have to unbrand the phone there are other threads that talk about this.
BTW where did you get your code.
For Softbank , NTT Docomo etc.. you must get onto a stock rom ie an unbranded one for the phone to prompt you to enter the code.
If not you must do it using the USB cable method.
The unlock screen has been disabled on softbank and docomo firmwares.
I have the same problem~

Not sure what you're talking about, but ROM flashing has nothing to do with sim unlocking. If you're not using an official sim for the carrier your phone came from, you have to buy an unlock pin online or try to get one from the carrier.
hmm
I removed the number from my post ... seems like i cant remove it from the replied one .
I bought from AT&T and came to india ...... Now it is keeping on asking for the unlock pin
i was desperate .,., any idea , where i can get an unlock pin is helpful
any software ?

One thing you can do is buy an unlock code, like check eBay, I highly doubt you'll be capable of getting software to do it
Any trustworthy ?
I was googling , I found that many might be a scam
If any one else has done this before from a good seller ...
references please ?

Fastboot oem unlock does NOT sim-unlock the phone!!!! It unlocks the bootloader!!! *facepalm*
I hear a lot of people here successfully got codes from cellunlock.net
I'm not responsible if you get scammed though

What should i tell ATT ?
Any ideas ?
Can any one tell me, what all i need to talk to ATT for getting this pin ?

[Q] I have an unlock code but...

Hi, i`ve bought an unlock code for 5 euro. And i recieved it. But the problem is i dont know how to enter it. When you put a foreign sim card to locked phone it asks for code i think. But photon does not ask any codes. How can i enter the unlock code i bought? Was that just a waste of money?
Please HEEEELP!!!

yes that was a waste of money. the phone is already UNLOCKED for international usage but it is locked for any other sim carrier in the USA. outside of usa you can use it freely.
But i wanted to get rid of the registering process on startup

How to type p and w letters to unlock sequence

Hello!
So I already got my unlocking code for the Nokia Lumia. Fine.
But when I tried to type the sequence that I received in the e-mail with the unlocking code, I just can't introduce it!
I'm suppose to enter this:
1. Switch ON your phone without a SIM card
2. Compose #PW+CODE+7# or #PW+CODE+1#
The letter P appear after press 3 times quickly the button star ( * )
The letter W appear after press 4 times quickly the button star ( * )
The letter + appear after press 2 times quickly the button star ( * )
But I'm not able to type P nor W. Not even with the method of the button star.
Any hint?
Thanks!
C'mon, I can't believe that nobody has unblocked a Lumia before...
Does anybody know how to introduce the unblocking code? I even tried starting the phone with another's carrier sim and introducing the code that I have, but it's too long and it doesn't fit in the space given.
Please help!
thankss

Perhaps you don't have the right code, if it doesn't fit in the text box...
Hello,
I have sim-unlock my SFR Lumia and i had the same problem, then this's what i do:
Put another sim card inside and after pin code the phone will invite you to enter the unlock code; tape directly your code and tape "Call", it work for me.

I unlocked an HTC Surround and it might be the same process because it's a Windows Phoendevice, what the CSR told me was that I needed to turn off the device and insert the new sim card, once it boots it gives you a notification that it doesnt recognize the sim card and it asks you to enter the unlocking code.
It was as simple as that but not sure if on Nokia's there's a different process.

I have the same issue, received the unblock code from AT&T for my NOKIA LUMIA 900 RM-808, it has 8 digits but did not work, the code supplier told me that I have to use the following format: #pw+CODE+1# where CODE is the one sent to me 8 digits long, however, my key pad to enter the code just has numbers, someone know if I can get a alpha numeric key pad to enter the #,p,w?
Thanks
Bump. I need to know this too
