Folks,
Does anyone know where I can get the unlock code for a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, USA, AT&T network? I tried one web service in which I've had good service with other phones in the past but they were not able to obtain the code this time. I really need this code today, if at all possible.
Thanks,
C
Problem solved. Tried another online service and they were able to get the unlock code. PM if you would like to know who or if a moderator says it's OK, I will post their name.

So, here I have an interesting issue for my SCH-R960 (US Cellular) which runs Android 4.4.2 Stock TouchWiz rooted. I got the unlock code from the US Cellular store for this phone, but when I enter it into the Network UnLock Enter Control key dialog, it says "Unlock request unsuccessful"!!!
This is the exact code the guy who worked at the store gave me. I live in Canada and obviously out of range of any US Cellular tower. Any ideas?

Go back to the store and have them unlock it for you. Or just give them a call and explain your situation.
I just called them and it's useless... I told them I can't come to store again since I'm in Canada but he said he can't!!! He said as regulations for unlocking is changing in favor of customers, it might be possible in future though! Which is not helpful at the moment for me.
This should be posted in Q&A. Might get more response that way..
Greetings everyone, I've recently picked up an AT&T Galaxy S6 Active, and AT&T has graciously sent me the unlock code. I'd like to provide Chainfire the recovery.img file to see if he can unleash some magic for those of us hoping to root this phone. Unfortunately I'm too new to the game to know how to extract the recovery.img from my phone.
As an aside, I'm using the SM-G890A on T-Mobile now, and I'm super pleased with the way the phone works. It's extremely fast with data on the T-mobile network, and unlocking and configuring it was easy with T-mobile's help. The battery is ridiculous. Love this phone and hope to Root it one of these days!
Please my Samsung Galaxy s6 model number SM-G920k does not have a sim toolkit stk.app which is very important in our country kenya for sim services, anyone plz help on what to do to install the stk.app and the source
The source you will never get. That is a closed sourced app that many are not excluding anymore and few and fewer places use it. It might still be there but without a ui for people to mess with.
Hey folks,
I recently bought a Oppo Reno 10x Zoom from India. Unfortunately I didn't use it there and brought it to UAE to use here. Now its showing Network Locked message and am not able to use it. Local Customer Service is helpless and asked me to take it to India to solve this issue.
When i tried myself, it is asking for 16 Digit Unlock code. Anybody have a clue on how to get this done?
Hi
Hey did you ever find a solution to your problem cuz I'm thinking I'm running into the same thing it's not asking me for a code but it won't let me on the Verizon network and Verizon actually said that it would work on my on their Network now since they got rid of this cdma thank you in advance
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 5G TABLET that is locked by Verizon. I put a T-Mobile sim card in it and it says it is not a Verizon sim card and shows a ? on top of the icon for the sim card. There is nothing asking me to enter a reset code. Under the phone number it says Unknown. So using an unlock code wouldn't work unless I can find a place to enter it. I tried to get Verizon to unlock it over the phone and they said I had to take it to a store, at the store they said it had to be done over the phone and the person saying it had to go to a store gave me inaccurate information. Samsung won't do anything and T-Mobile said go to Verizon. It hasn't had any service with Verizon for over a year and it was with the prior owner. I've wasted hours on this and accomplished nothing. What's my best plan of action here?
This may be unrelated to your problem, but I tried unsuccessfully to move my Verizon Tab S8+ (fully paid for) to T mobile, and was advised by the T Mobile engineers that it did not have the necessary drivers for their 5G network. Indeed, I tried using a T Mobile Sim card, and it would only connect to their 3G network.

Good to know. I trust about half of what T-Mobile 'experts' tell me on the phone. Are you able to text to anyone on the tablet over their network?
Sorry, I only text thru my connected phone account. But the only limitation I had w the tablet was an inability to connect to the 5G bands, but 3G did work on T Mobile. My Tab was not locked to Verizon. It just does not have the necessary radio bands to connect to their 5G signal.
Nobody here has a clue how to unlock this tablet?

Have you tried opening the dialer pad and doing *#2263# and enabling all the network channels that way?

If it has been a year, then it should work. Who was the previous owner? You may need to contact them. It is possible that it is still associated with his or her account. I had a friend that had the same problem with an iPad that was Verizon plan and he wanted it to work on T-Mobile. After several calls to Verizon he got it to work. T-Mobile can't do anything until Verizon fixes it.
Update: After thinking about this a bit more. The person who said that you need to take it to a Verizon store is probably correct. For Verizon to remotely unlock it, it has to be on its network, meaning you need a Verizon SIM.
On a more cynical side. It is possible the person you acquired it from never paid the device off. Here is how the scam goes.
- Person buys device on a payment plan with a CC.
- Verizon sends device and activates it on its network.
- Person then ghosts Verizon on payments
- Person the sells device at near retail price and pockets the difference between what he or she has already paid Verizon
- Verizon does not unlock device because it is now considered stolen
- New user (you) are not able to get the device unlocked to work on another network
