Hello as this is my first problem with a phone/phone company, I'm confused. I am a long time T-Mobile customer. But my son gave me an upgrade phone cause I am apparently severely outdated. However it is an AT&T phone. A Samsung Galaxy S2 SGH-i777. He moved and now goes with Verizon. So I put the phone in my name by buying a $10 prepaid deal. However its now been over a year & 8 requests and AT&T continues to deny me the unlock code. The phone was never under a contract , it was purchased outright and was a gift a few years back from his father. Now my ancient phone ha taken a crap and I cant afford to buy another one. I have looked into several sites and became a member here thinking I was more edumacted :cyclops: then I am. I just really want to unlock the damn thing. Please help......This is what Ive done thus far.
1.) Updated to 4.1.2
2.) Downloaded and Installed Framaroot getting the SuperSU
3.) Downloaded CSC Select & SGS unlock tool.
Still no unlock code. Maybe I messed up already ..... idk? 2 months ago I was laid off, my savings is damn near completely dry and I need help.( In more ways then 1....bahaha)!! I would like to remove anything & everything regarding AT&T from this device and run Google or WHATEVER. Is that possible?? I Thank You ahead for any time, advice and help anyone can give. Happy holidays and Namast'e :good:
Unlocking is the easy part:
a) Get the relevant information from your son, and use this AT&T website.
OR
b) I used Galaxsim unlock, and have used my i777 on other carriers (not t-mobile), and overseas.
Using the i777 on TMobile? I'm not sure that will work very well.
-The i777 GSM frequencies [850, 900, 1800, 1900] will not communicate beyond 2g on t-mobile network.
EDIT: Apparently T-mobile has refarmed a lot of its 3g+ services to the 1900 frequency, which will allow the i777 to communicate at full speed on t-mobile service. *assuming the relevant refarming happened in your area.
You want to use a de-branded, slimmed down version of the firmware? No problem.
If you like the touchwiz interface, look at cooked or shostock.
If you would like to run an AOSP flavored firmware, then there are several excellent choices in the development forum.
Happy flashing,
-Cyril

What CSCs are you generally getting from resellers? Latest European?
Anyone buy from NewEgg? (30 day exchange for issue laden device)
What are the pitfalls if any with using International Versions on ATT. I can see the advantages.
Flashing methods seem to be the same from what I am reading. Even A TiBu restore may work from a saved folder from the Captivate. Have not read of any differences there in apps or TiBu.
VPN settings work?
Been looking to get this handset but not sure about about a few processes. I am guessing MobileTech can unbrick one of these should I have an issue as they did one of my Captivates. I have not read of any US repair support expected.
USA Buyer
I have a SGII here in US, bought from onthegosolutions.com, works well on AT&T sim card. No setup issues, nothing to complain about but the problems with the native email app and activesync exchange server, that is supposed to be fixed in KE7 if I can ever get it.
The phone is the standard EU version XWKE2
I got mine from Amazon and the CSC was from Chile. Flashed the generic European ROM soon after to update the build to KE7. Everything has been working fine before and after flashing and rooting.
THanks for the replies. Being a "noob" to non branded Android Galaxy (always bought Nokia before and had to set up VPN was the only difference.
The two branded Captivates which were complete turds initially have been very nicely polished by developers. (hence my support of donations to them and this site.) I believe in supporting the helpful developers with my wallet for ROMS and paid Apps.
I don't use either Exchange or the stock Email app. I like Gmail and K9. I will root for TiBi and root Explorer. Probably run Cog at first since DG was a force on the SGS I and still is. When I get comfortable with the flashing processes I will try other ROMs
I guess most processes are similar to the S1. I did notice two rooting methods. I even read somewhere SuperOneclick may work.
OF hundreds of flashes I bricked once (recently) but $50 late MobileTech and the JTAG had me like new. Small price to pay to save a few hundred dollar phone. IM guessing Josh cna do the same with the SGS II.
Does anyone know when it will be available for AT&T?
I bought mine from New Egg and received it Thursday and I must say it is a great phone. Mine came with KE2. I just flashed Cognition on it a couple of hours ago and its even smoother and faster.
I read on Android Central the other day that Samsung was having issues with the carriers in the US on getting them to pick up this phone. I don't know why since its an awesome phone and they already have phones on all the major carriers. I'm glad I bought it outright instead of waiting for ATT to officially carry it.

The source of all those stories was a Korean writer with no facts talking out of his ass. A dev just found AT&T LTE code in the 2.3.4 leak along with PNG logos unique to their network.
Here's a link to the story that started it all. You judge if its credible.

Yeah IM over Carrier branded handsets. I was glad ATT never carried the N82/N95/N97 Nokias...... I could not care if ATT never gets the SGS 2. Probably get an SGS 3 instead to compete with ifad 5
Bought one here from the Market place with KE7....Hasn't arrived yet.

Hello everyone, so its finally the launch day for the SGS2! Rejoice!
I picked mine up this morning from Tbooth for 599.99 no contract. I plan on using the phone on telus though, so I need a sim-unlock.
I know there is a root sim unlock app, but does this work on the Bell version of the phone? What about paid unlock codes? Will http://cgi.ebay.ca/UNLOCK-CODE-UK-SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S2-GALAXY-PRO-B7510-/260812982312?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3cb9aa4828#ht_4291wt_1139 work for bell???
I guess I should just try the unlock app... a little hesitant. I realize there might already be an answer for this, but I am just looking for some help. Thank you.
Diito. I bought my Bell SGS2 outright this morning as well. Damn sweet phone. I'm looking to unlock and run on Telus as well.
What I thought they don't allow you to buy it off contract anymore...weird, I am from Toronto.
Anyways for unlocking I would recommend cellunlocker.net (I have used it a few times and it worked, fast and good pricing).

I just bought mine this morning non-contract and intend to use it on Telus as well. They just make you go month to month and pay for 1 month of service and you can cancel in 30 days essentially with no penalties.
I've been looking for a Bell root flash as well...bell has a ton of crap pre-installed that I definately don't dig.
Before all this unlock code ish
try the nv_data.bin thing!

Also you need to pay the activiation cost as well right?
That is not really worth it if you lived in Toronto/GTA, Ontario. I got one at Pacific Mall for 650, unbranded and unlocked UK version.

I live in Calgary xD.
Phone was $625 after tax plus the $50 for the rate plan and $35 activation plus tax so not a huge difference. I'm also wondering if anyone knows the number of digits the unlock code for the GS2 should be.....I received a code from cellunlocker.net and due to poor instructions and myself being uncontrollably impatient to use the phone on telus put in only part of the code..or so i beleive.
They sent the code in this format NETWORK:=48684XXX;PROVIDER:=69599XXX;SUBNET:=85256XXX;DEFREEZE:=05193XXX.
I've used 2 attempts and REALLY want to know its right before i enter it again. I feel like a serious noob after this lol

Umm interesting, I only get one code from the many time I used.
Anyways if you have tried the network and provider one, then the codes are unlikely to be working.
What I will do is, either email them or call them and ask which one to use. If they say use the one that you already tried and didn't work, you should make a video of the process of you inputing the codes and if it didn't work and, just email them that video to get your money back.
But you gota be extra careful now, you only have one attempt before it freezes lol.
Now I wouldn't risk it if they told you the one to use and you already tried it which failed.
You should try to use the things that SS2006 suggested.
cellunlocker.net probably won't refund you the money if you do not have a video, but I can send you the cost since I recommended and it failed. It should be something like $8 right? lol
Good luck.
Edit: okay guys I found this thread and it confirmed to be working:
http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...ree-unlocking-solution-reportedly-not-working
Now you should start reading and learn stuff before you actually start flashing and doing things.
But you should note it will void your warranty if you start flashing and rooting, so you might want to think about that as well.
There is unlock available. under other thread. I unlocked usin theunlock.ca code. i didnt know about root/unlock when i paid for it. But it works.

I'm waiting on theunlock.ca to send me my codes too. Hopefully soon!
So did that software unlock or the sim unlock app work for anyone?
Or should I just use theunlock.ca ?
Same as you guys, I'll be picking mine up today and unlocking to use with Telus.

My only concern with rooting and unlocking it via the methods available here on XDA is that it seems to be a hit or miss with what kind of glitches you may end up with.
I'm hoping theunlock.ca will preserve all the original device settings, firmware, etc. and just allows me to use it on my Rogers account.
Rooting with XX OXA kernel worked.
Then I used this to use it on Telus.

BELL, rooted and unlock with ZS firmware.. up and running with TELUS..
I just subscribed to this web site to thank you A LOT! It works perfectly!!
theunlock.ca worked for me!
Did it with Helroz galaxy s unlock and it worked for me!!
I simply root the bell galaxy s2 by following:
w**.inspiredgeek.com/2011/04/29/breaking-samsung-galaxy-sii-s2-is-now-rooted-using-xwkdd-insecure-kernel-with-superoneclick
Then I have install the galaxy s unlock + busy tool
gone trough the 1-2-3 steps form the galaxy s unlcok tool
Then boot the phone with my Telus sim card, wait a few minutes to get hooked to the network and Voila!!
Note: once you flash the kernel with odin, you'll get a yellow triangle at the boot screen, I have simple flash back with the original kernel with odin after root grants to get rid of it, the original I use is I9100XWKDD_StockKernel.tar, too big to get attached
I have a bell S2 when i put a rogers sim i dont get a prompt to enter to the network control key. Im running 2.3.5
That means its already unlocked
Hoping to get a Note and can't decide to wait for T-Mobile to get it (? months) or buy ATT now and do the steps to use T-mobile including 4G. How tricky and risky are these steps? I managed to root a Samsung ~year ago but the Note is worth 5x that phone. Also, if I use Gingerbread now, will ICS upgrade while maintaining 4G ablity be easy enough? Appreciate the advice.
I am on atta so I dont have exp on tmobile but if you go to rootgalaxynote.com you will see step by step guide and it looks easy just like flashing custom roms. just follow the instructions and you should be fine. I have flashed so many custom roms since jan of this year and never had any problem and my note is better than ever.
for official ics update, you will have to revert back to stock rom before you can upgrade. you will find this process also in develop section. you will probably have to flash tmobile again but it will be easy for you by then. very easy I must say.

OK, I am on t mobile.
Here is the thing. The T-Mobile modem is easy to flash, true. However its reliability is less than you would see on T-Mobile phone (meaning some complain of weaker signal and data connection gets dropped very often with the only work around disconnecting data and reconnecting).
I personally never had dropped calls by the way but some people complain.
If you choose to stay on att modem then you get reliable 100 kbps which is pretty slow for most tasks but works fine for emails and light web browsing.
There are some tweaks that purportedly make it more stable but those can only be done on stock rooms and not on cm9 or aokp which are the most popular.
To make a long story short - it is kind of a pain on both gb and ics. They say T-Mobile is switching to 1900 band in a few months and then connection on stock att modem should improve- but there is a risk there too. So if you can wait I think T-Mobile one should be better.
It is a great phone and those of us who had it from day one are happy campers for most part. But if you can wait why not get the right one?
And then again what is the right one? With new processors already announced and galaxy siii coming soon many will say that you should just get a newer phone. But I am perfectly happy with the note and if you get the one with perfect connection that would be quite great (in my opinion). T-Mobile always takes longer to get new phones so on T-Mobile side the note will be quite big news for some time.
By the way I just posted some related questions in a neighboring thread - hoping to get some questions answered myself
Wow just read in general section that galaxy siii is coming in June and note on July 11th. This is for T-Mobile - so if this is true then you have quite a few excellent choices.
very helpful...
Thanks, I appreciate the info in all of the replies. I'm afraid I already caved and bought a used one on ebay today! I have been "suffering" with a quite tiny screen on an old Symbian phone!! I also saw the July 11 date for the Note arriving to T-mobile but I'm very anti-contract -- can't stomach the way the providers soak so much $$ from contract customers. It just seemed that the price on T-Mobile Notes would be elevated for a while and might take a few more weeks beyond July 11 before there would be plenty of used ones to pick from on ebay. . So I will hope for the best with flashing the T-mobile modem on ATT version.

Good choice. I was trying to be overly critical, but I guess my (perhaps somewhat hidden) point was that it's a great phone - with a lot of enthusiasm driving higher than usual software development for such a "niche" device.
I've read somewhere today that t-mobile versions of any phones are generally more buggy, so may not be worth it. And I'm sure that as soon as t-mobile phone reaches the hands of our developers the modem will be available for our use as well. Not only that, but also it is likely that by then official Ice Cream Sandwich will be available and kernel modifications will result in even greater roms.
Here is the link to Carrier Unlock discussion - I paid $25 myself, though some people used cheaper services I guess. You need to do that before your SIM will work.

While loading modems is easy once everything is set up, you need to root the phone and load cwm recovery which you then use to load the modem.

Hi there! I know I'm about to ask something stupid.
I've owned and modded a Defy for almost 2 years, and today I got a second hand MB860 (I found that you call it Atrix 4G; here we've got no 4G for the time being, so it is just an "Atrix"). The fact is that it's still simlocked, and in a few months I might need to ask the guy who buyed it a the phone company to ask there for the subsidy code, or pay someone to give it to me.
One of the guys who unlocks cell phones over here, in a forum, has said that it is necessary for the phone to have the Stock ROM at the moment of entering the subsidy code. Honestly I didn't believe him, I've always been convinced that there is no way for the ROM to interfere at the moment of simunlocking a cell phone. Am I wrong? At the moment of introducing the subsidy code, does it need something special? I've been searching here, but found nothing yet.
The problem about this is that that guy says "Ok, if you don't want to believe me, don't do it. Try it on another ROM, but I won't give your money back if my subsidy code just doesn't work". I wouldn't like to lose 25 USD without the possibility of complaining to the guy, and I'm a bit curious about what he says.
Thanks in advance!
Hey i recently unlocked my atrix on a rom that isnt stock. It shouldn't matter which rom you use. What i did was call AT&Ts wireless department. I didnt know which specific department i needed so i waited until i was transferred to a real person and told them I needed to unlock my phone which had been under contract with them a long time ago. I was actually never in a contract with them as the phone was a gift but they didnt ask any firther questions. So they transferred me. Told me to give them the IMEI number and told me to wait while they look it up. They then instructed me to put a sim card from another company to get the sim unlock prompt to popup. I put in the code they gave me and i succesfully unlocked my atrix. I did this on monday and used a tmobile sim i had lying around. I was given the code within 10 mins. Best of luck

Thanks! I think I will keep reading a little so as to mod it (I found the Atrix a little bit riskier than the Defy) and then unlock it.
There is always the option of flashing stock again, but I'd like to avoid it .
Hi,
Firstly, I'd like to apologise if this post is either in the wrong place, or if the answers are extremely obvious. I'm fairly new to this site so I'm not 100% sure where to post, I'm fairly new to unlocking as I've previously only used factory unlocked phones, and I'm fairly new to Android Rooting so I'm not completely sure of some things.
Long story short, I currently own an HTC One X+ which is locked to the UK O2 network. I want to use a different network so I'm going to have to unlock my phone. O2 will not unlock my phone until 12 months after I've owned the phone, and even then they'll charge me £15. eBay has multiple sellers offering an unlock for £1, but I have two questions before I go ahead and purchase it/send them my information.
Does O2 require you to wait 12 months from purchase because they want to make some money from you, or is it physically impossible to unlock a phone until 12 months after purchase? (this question seems pretty silly seeing as you can buy factory unlocked phones, but I thought I'd check anyway)
Will unlocking my phone affect my ability to root in any way? (again, I feel this is an obvious answer of 'no' but I just want to be sure)
Thank you in advance for any help provided.

1) yes
2) no (my device is the o2 one and it's now running fine on 3)
My HOX+ is/was on contract with Vodafone which I received in November 2012 when I upgraded. My phone is rooted, unlocked bootloader etc. I switched to GiffGaff a few weeks back to get off contract (it cost me to pay off the Vodafone contract but I'm £23 a month better off!). Anyway, I never had to get a PUK or anything, just popped in the new SIM and I was good to go.

Is that a yes they only do it to make money from you, or yes you have to wait 12 months?
