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

no, sorry. Pay websites, or t mobile. No unlocker for the hd2 (that we know about)
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.

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 ?

I performed a factory restore in the motorola Atrix i had bought in ebay and that made my cellphone get unblocked to SIM cards that are not from AT&T. I have the PIN code to unlock again but the cellphone does not accept it, i'm getting crazzy about it. Does anyone have idea of what i could do?
I'd try (re)flashing a radio or a different version.
Although I'm not saying you should do it.

It's not officially unlocked. Talk to an AT&T representative online & tell him that you're locked. He'll ask your IMEI & give you the unlock code. (for free). Then your set will be re unlocked again.

The phone will also prevent SIM unlocks after too many unsuccessful attempts. You may have went over your limit. Try getting a new code from AT&T. Maybe the code you have is a one-time use only code?

The previous owner who had unblocked first bought the code from Cellunblock.com and i tried buy it from other website but it was the same, so i guess it's permanent
Same thing

Same thing with my Razr D1 (XT918), I had bought unlocked from a big store here in Brazil. I performed a hard reset (factory reset), and after that, the sim slot 2 does not recognize any SIM card. I remade the reset procedure but it is the same message: "SIM locked ME. Slot SIM you are about to use is locked. Do you want to unlock? Enter (8-16 digits) to unlock."
Apparently, after the reset, the cellphone set a lock in the slot, which can be checked manually by the way:
Settings> Security> Set up SIM card lock
PS: The other slot (1) usually works with any SIM card.
If a had the slot unlock code, I think I could solve the problem, but in some brazilian foruns, I found that its a problem with these cellphone models (D1 and D3). After the factory reset the slot is locked. Motorola replied in costumer service that is working in a solution, but a need my second slot...
Somebody can help?

Hi,
I got my Terrain months ago and using AT&T. Seller already given me the unlock code and I won't unlock it until now, I am going to change carrier, and forgot how to enter the unlock code. I sent message to seller but it seem he already forgot me and telling me all phone were unlocked before sent.
I am stuck with using my old phone, I appreciate if anyone can tell me how to.
Tried #7320*code#, #3210*code# or **00012*CODE# from Google but no help.
Thank you !!
Kent
You have to stick a non-AT&T SimCard in the phone. If the phone is unlocked then it will just connect to the carrier without trouble. If the phone is locked it will immediately ask you for a code and if you don't enter the correct code or cancel, it will not connect to the carrier. If you do not put a SimCard in the phone at all it will not prompt for an unlock code.
I have two of these NEC Terrains, one unlocked and one locked. Just to confirm the difference between the two I stuck a non-AT&T SimCard in the locked one. That is how I can tell you for certain that is how this phone works. I'm not just making it up or assuming this is how it should work, I've seen it with my own eyes.
Good Luck.

Hello
I purchased a brand new Samsung Galaxy Alpha Direct from Vodafone UK. My sim is under Orange/EE.
I purchased a NUC code from an unlocking vendor online. I entered the correct IMEI number as requested and received the code a few days later. I entered the code and received a message saying "Network request unlock unsuccessful."
Went through troubleshooting with the vendor and could not get it working. A refund was given.
I decided to Vodafone UK to have the phone unlocked direct through them as I thought maybe a dodgy code was given. I received my code yesterday, followed the instructions and again the same message appears.
I was growing tired with this so decided to take it to an independent experienced phone unlocker/repairer and explained the situation to him. I give him the code and he tried various different things and was baffled as this should be an easy process.
The phone is running android 4.4.4
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have a phone here I cannot use :crying:
Thanks in advance!
dear same thing happened to me I post a thread on this then I get no answer , but u can use this website to unlock your phone be sure will be unlocked but try to fill information that where you already purchased your phone not where you want to use OK ?

wish that will help you
I just unlocked note 4 from Vodafone. I got 4 unlock codes. One is for sim and the other 3 for aomesthing more deeper in the sistem Just worked with the sim unlock code. My question for you is: if you tryed 2 different ( online and Vodafone) YOU SHOULD GOT THE SAME CODE FOR SIM UNLOCK because is strictly related to your IMEI. Is that the case?
P.S. 1.On Google play is a program Note 4 unlock. I got my unlock code in 50 minutes in the day of international launch of note 4. You should try that.
2. Write with Odin a stock firmware and try again your unlock code after that
3. To enter your unlock code you have to insert an non accepted sim in your phone, power up your phone and enter the code when you are asked. Did you do that?
Try this

If your phone does not ask for the unlock code:
1. Turn on the phone with original Sim card or without Sim card
2. Enter #7465625*638*NCK/Network#
The phone is now unlocked.
If your phone does not ask for the unlock code:
1. Turn on the phone with a foreign (Unaccepted) Sim card
2. Then enter the following sequence:
#0199*Unfreeze/Defreeze#
#0111*NCK/Network#
#0121*SCK/Subprovider#
#0133*SPCK/Provider#
The phone is now unlocked.
