Hello all,
I have had my Lumia 920 for a few months now an have yet to find a service that can successfully provide me with an unlock code. I have even lost money on a few sites that refuse to respond to my refund request. I was and still am very desperate to obtain the unlock code.
My only other alternative was to request it through AT&T however I am located in Jamaica so I have never had an account with them so I was turned down.
I am hereby asking if there is anyone out there who is a current or former customer of AT&T who would be willing to request an unlock code for me through there online device unlock service.
Please let me know so that I can provide the IMEI
THIS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!

hi all
i've bought a T-mobile HD2 from someone in USA online.it's locked to T-mobile,so i called the USA T-mobile CS rep for an unlock code.surprisingly,that man was quite happy to unlock my phone for me,for free,
AS LONG AS i can get someone in USA with a T-mobile account(anyone,not just the seller who owned the phone) to call the company's customer service and ask them to unlock my phone.
do you really think it's possible that someone who only has an account can unlock others' phones just by giving T-mobile a call? that man convinced me that all i need to do is to give that person IMEI code and my email address and ask for a favour.it doesn't cost anyone anything and doesn't affect that person's account either.how good is that.
please give me some advice on this if you have had a similar experience. if it does work,can anyone in USA with a T-mobile account be so kind to do me a favour? please leave a message or email me if interested.i would really appreciate it!
thanks
John
Check this thread out! - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=601611
thanks. but the thread is mainly talking about getting an unlock code OUTSIDE tmobile.if there is a way to get the code FROM tmobile,which is safer,why not try?and it doesn't sound to me very difficult,so this is what i am asking:is it easy/not easy to get a code from tmobile USA?

Just buy it on the internet. It's not that expensive.
I had a Droid 2 Global for which Verizon screwed up the unlock codes via OTA update (only way to unlock was through Verizon). So, yeah I have experience asking people to request an unlock codes for me, and in 99% cases noone is willing to help unless you get seriously lucky.
The reason is - unlocking ties the phone to the persons account + it has to be active on ATT network + they can request only one unlock code in 6 months or something. So, if they do an unloсk for you, they can't do it for themselves in the next half a year.
Someone please help to get an unlocking code for my motorola xt610. I bought it from eBay and can't use it abroad, because it is SIM-locked. Unlocking seriveces' codes doesn't work. The code has been changed by Verizon. I am not a Verizon customer. So can't ask them for the code. Someone is needed to be a customer for at least 90 days. Thanks in advance.
I am looking for anyone who can help me.. i have tried everything.. every website i have found on or off this forum to unlock my t-mobile UK locked lumia 800. Everyone has given me a refund back and been unable to help me.. I live in australia and am a student so simply buying a new one is not affordable for me.. i have tried calling t-mobile int he uk numerous times endured lengthy costly calls only to have them tell me they cant help me because i am not a t-mobile customer..
Initially i was in contact with the person that i purchased th phone off and t-mobile sent them an unlock code for me which they passed on.. BUT it doesnt work?? the code is wrong or faulty.. and they have since ceased contact with me rendering me handicapped with a glorified gps camera..
SO i offer say this
1. Can anyone suggest a way for me to unlock my phone
2. Is anyone who is a t-mobile customer who would be willing to ring them up on my behalf (i would provide you with all the information about my phone) and get an unlock code for me..?

Did you try to flash stock unbranded firmware? Idk if this overwrites simlock but you can try it.
simlock is not flashing dependant to any firmware. it is hard-written to eeprom or PM or something similar.
anyway if this site http://sim-unlock.net/site/Nokia/Lumia 800/ shows temporarily unavailable then you are temporarily out of luck!!
I was in a position simialr to you.
I can only guess that T-Mobile were sending out erroneous unlock codes, as the first one I received from my seller didn't work. After a few months and some shouting at him, he called T Mobile back and got an 'update' code which worked.
Is the owner's email address accesible to you? Try sending him a reasonable email advising him that he just needs to give T Mobile a quick ring and they can sort it all out. If not, get more details from whatever service you used to buy it from him (ebay, etc) and send him a stronger email.
If he sold you an unlocked lumia and you agreed to take the locked one WITH an unlock code (a fully unlocked phone delivered in two stages) then he does have an obligation to either provide it or give a refund (as he has missold a good).
Edit:
I do have a T Mobile account and would be willing to give it a try getting you an unlock code. PM me.

I have a Lumia 710 that I need unlocked ASAP. I've tried cellunlocker.net and their services and they came back with no code available. I have a phone sale pending of this and need to get it unlocked. It's on a prior T mobile account i had and don't anymore. Use mac and windows and looking for a quick solution. Paid $30 for an unlock code and got nowhere, but a refund so that was good.
Looking for any help asap to unlock it for sale. Anyone able to help?
My direct email is [email protected] as well. Will pay for a valid unlock code if needed as long as it unlocks it properly. Thanks
