Hello, the thing is that I have a Motorola Atrix 4G from Claro, Nicaragua with Froyo. Claro doesn't have released the official GB update. So I was wondering, is there any other way to update to GB? The phone is locked, I just can used with Claro network, and I don't want to pay to unlock it. Will a custom rom totally lock the phone?
Thank you!
Generally It shoud not .
update
Hi there, i agree the update should not simlock your phone to a specific network again, i have a Desire Hd that was originally on the Orange uk network, i currently use the vodafone uk network and have a had at least 12 different custom roms each having completely wiped the phone before install. hope this helps.

Hi ppl,
Let me tell u my mobile's history.
BELL STOCK => FRENCH RETAIL => T-MOBILE => FLASHED SBF AND UNLOCKED BOOT-LOADER (EVERY THING WENT FINE EXCEPT RAM ISSUE) => FRENCH RETAIL => ORANGE UK.
Now my question is which Gingerbread update fits my profile, and atrix is my primary phone so cant flash any experimental thingi on (not that i like experiments just want a clean phone with gingerbread)
Any thoughts ???
Cant help unfortunately but very interested in your uk o2 rom.did you hack the bootloader to get this?I have an orange uk (sim unlocked ) phone and was wondering if there will be a worldwide non branded gingerbread release.Oh and it would be nice if it could be installed the legit way.I know i ask too much.Just out of interest which rom did you find had the least bloat?ie stupid.non essential apps?thanks

The Brasilian atrix will have a oficial gingerbread 2.3.5 rom update on this december, so wait for the oficial rom, or install CM7?
The only one that you cannot install is the AT&T one, the orageFR and UK are ok
So you think I can use it with unlocking and flashing in Serbia?

Hi,
I saw that Brazilian atrix cannot be flashed with AT&T Firmwares.
But what about AT&T Atrix, Does it has some limitation as Brazilian ones?
e.g. Can I flash Firmware from Brazil and apply a ROM after that?
Thanks for you time.
Bump!
Guys can anyone help pls,i can get Atrix on VIVO Brasilian network locked,
if anyone knows how to unlock it and make it to work on my network(Serbia EU)
Who sold you that device? Do you have the sim card for vivo? In Brasil phone companies are required to unlock phones for no charge and on request. Vivo had, don't know if still does, an online unlocking service. It is for registered customers only though. Check it out.
Otherwise there is no soft unlocking method for this phone. Why don't you google something like "motorola atrix vivo unlock" as I did and look at the websites selling codes. At least 3 turned up in my 10 second search, one seemed reputable. If you can't get it from vivo, this is the only way to get it.

Ne moze se otkljucati brale, i ja sam pomislio da ga kupim kada sam video primamljivu cenu na mobilnom svetu i malo se raspitao.

No you cant carrier unlock it. Don't buy that phone.
Vivo sell their phones sim locked with 1 year line contracts. If its out of this period and you can take that phone to a vivo reseller, they have the obligation by law to sim unlock it. If its in the contract period, you still can have it unlocked if you pay the fee for that or if you by the code (look at mercadolivre.com.br, there's probably someone selling codes).
Hello, I recently acquired a motorla atrix 3g (Dominican Republic), the phone is currently at android version 2.2.2 and I would like to upgrade to Gingerbread but when I try to find updates from the phone it points that the phone is up to date, this is since the carrier (Claro Dominicana) has not yet released GB for this phone. I would like to know the best method to do upgrade to GB preferably without rooting the device.

Unlock the bootloader, get a recovery, flash a rom
Morning all,
I have had my Tmobile supplied S2 for 18 months and need to move to orange so that I can have UMA running on my S2, I have no signal at all here at home and my other blackberry works perfectly fine over UMA.
I have asked Tmobile for a Pac code which is now registered on an orange SIM, I have also asked Tmobile for the sim unlock code which I had to pay 15.32.
Couple of questions that I need answering really if you could help.
1) How long does it take for Tmobile to provide you with the sim unlock code.....I have been waiting about 10 days already
2) Once I receive the sim unlock code shall i just put my orange sim in and unlock it.
3) Will the handset remain unlocked no matter what firmware I install.
4) Installing orange firmware....once unlocked can I just install stock Orange firmware straight onto the S2.
5) Does the latest stock orange firmware come with UMA already as part of the firmware.
I have in the past rooted and uploaded different firmware but cant remember which one then went back to stock tmobile using odin if i remember correctly so im not a total num nuts.:laugh:
Any advice would greatly be appreciated, I think that im correct that once unlocked I can install any firmware and my handset will remain unlocked, but any pointers would be greatly received.
Thanks and happy new year to all at XDA
I used to have an unbranded S6 Edge after selling it I missed it so much so I got a secondhand one yesterday. After factory reset, the first thing it did was install all kinds of Vodafone apps. As a TMobile user with a Tmobile Simcard I guess the Phone has been unlocked by the former owner. Or can Vodafone do this and still have all the apps installed?
I would like to flash the unbranded Dutch stock rom on in but in case the former owner did sim unlock it would I loose the sim unlock then? Is there a way to tell the Phone has been software unlocked or through the carrier?
Rght now it has Baseband G925FXXU4DPIT and MMB29K.G925FXXU4DPJG Buildnummer
And I would like to flash PDA:G925FXXU4DPJH CSC:G925FPHN4DPJE
Thanks in advance,

Flashing a stock ROM should not lose the sim lock. Network lock isn't done by software flashing. It's done with the imei. You should be able to flash any stock ROM including branded firmware and you won't lose the unlocked network
