You'll need to flash a stock AT&T rom for the unlock code to work.

can anybody help me i just brought and tmobile htc hd2 and its not unlocked i have att service. does anyone know of a place where i caN GET FREE CODES????????????????? thanx in advance
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 ?

hey kiran.. i too had same problem... I got this moto atrix with android 2.2.2 version frm AT&T carrier locked.. i tried to unlock with "RSD lite" software by keeping the phone in "Starting RSD Protocol Support" and again booted it in "fastboot" mode and tried "fastboot oem unlock" command, then rebooted the phone (this process i got on googling) the phone rebooted saying unlocked, but when i insert my sim it is still asking for "SIM Network unlock PIN"
did u find any solution ? i too thought of buying that PIN online, but was just checking if anyone did it before in india...

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

oh, that is great. how long did ATT take to give you the unlock code? What did ATT ask, apart from IMEI? ATT mobile number needed?? I don't have ATT mobile number....
ducati - same situation for me as well .. i dont have ATT SIM .,., but the phone is locked for SIM
What should i tell ATT ?
Any ideas ?
Can any one tell me, what all i need to talk to ATT for getting this pin ?
Any news, guys?
I also have Atrix from AT&T and its locked with my sim.
How can I get the unlock code? send them an email?
Thanks.

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

start up process is common with all android devices.
one time process as long yu do not factory reset.
Next time donate 5euro to some dev so that we have some goodies.
hello everyone,
been out of the scene for a while, and I just sold my dell streak, however, the new owner cannot use his new dell streak as its locked to AT&T. I obtained an unlock code from them by calling them, but the streak is on MIUI and the menu that ask for the unlock number does not come up, is there any other way to do this? do I have to flash an original android firmware to it? Thanks in advance.

you said it is sim unlocking... therefore (usually) it is phone related locking... not from at&t... there should be a menu for security > sim card lock
im just trying to unlock the phone to be used with TMobile, it is locked to AT&T not sure if it's phone or sim. AT&T gave me a code to unlock it but when I insert the sim the menu to unlock it doesn't pop up

open Settings > Security and search for something similar to sim card lock... you should get something from there...
if you get nothing.. most probably the phone is network locked... my phone is network unlocked where i can insert any sim... and it does have sim card lock in case there is someone else want to use the phone and use another sim card in it...
If you mean CARRIER unlocking and not the sim card itself, you have to install a stock rom. Sim unlocking isnt exactly something that can be easily tested on a custom rom, so that's your only reliable way of doing so.
If you mean the actual sim card itself, cant help ya
anyone care to share some rom links, all the ones ive tried dont work or a whole bunch of ads come up.

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?
