Anyone know how to adb unlock sim? I had a captivate and there was a way to change the binary file to leave network unlocked then you pushed it using a Chmod adb command. I would try it but I'm afraid I don't have insurance and also not too comfortable with htc devices so I don't wanna brick by accident

You either need an xtc clip or a sim unlock code from Verizon or an online unlocker.

I believe Verizons code is free...why won't ppl use it?
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
As a Verizon indirect agent my account manager will not give unlock codes to me therefore software unlock is my best bet, I'm not buying an xtc clip either talk about a ripoff
Why can't you just call Verizon customer support and get the unlock code from them? Shouldn't matter if you're affiliated with vzw or not, you pay for a service, they provide it.

Please answer the question I know what I can and can't do it's stupid what can't be done when u work for a company but I have tried everything and that's why I am posting the question, Yes I have searched, Yes I have called support, my options are software unlock or code unlock and I don't want to pay for a code
Those are your only options. Either find someone that does sim unlocking with an xtc clip or buy a code. There's absolutely no other way known right now.

Side note, what are my chances of bricking the device trying to do this the same way? I have backups if I can get into CWM BUT a nice brick would probably make me very upset
It has a greater risk than not doing it and spending a few bucks.

Hello. I have a samung galaxy s3 i747 which was locked to Telus. I had an issue unlocking it with other sites. However, I found Unlock Client and it worked like a charm. Use them, their software works.
:laugh:
I can vouch for them as well, unlocked my Bell i747 through them worked awesome.
or you can take 5 minutes of your time, and call AT&T, and ask for your unlock code.
for free.
:good:

If I lived in the US and was an AT&T customer then perhaps I could phone and ask for the code, but I'm not and I can't.
Why is it all these posts are started by people with like 1-10 posts? Employee of the company in question much?
If I could just have one recommendation for an unlocking service from a reputable member here I'd be thrilled.
I can see how you would assume the OP probably works for the company first post ever and join date of Aug 2012, but I can personally say I have used their service and it works. I usually lurk and read on XDA but you can take my word how ever you want
I checked your posts, it was nice to see they weren't just 11 posts all promoting Unlock Client at various device forums here
I may try them out when my red S3 finally arrives.
I called ATT to unlock my S3 and they obliged. The problem is the unlock sequence doesn't work for me giving me an MMI error.

You need another carrier's SIM card to prompt the unlock menu. The dial sequence is only for non-NA variants.

I recently went overseas and used this guys xxx.cellunlocker.net, fast and worked on the first try. Use a diff carrier sim to unlock it with the code they send you.

if you've had your sgs3 for 15 days or more, they will unlock it.
also, you need to have your last months bill paid in full.

it depends on the CSR you get. after trying with 5 different live-chats, i finally got one who provided the code for my sister's 2-day-old SGS3 immediately without any questions.
I told them I'm traveling to Canada. That might have worked.
Got my Garnet Red AT&T S3 today (in New Zealand). Ended up going with mod edit:link removed.
I hate to have to say it, because I'm going to sound like one of the many shmucks who come here talking about unlock solutions in order to get $5 off the price, but the unlock code worked fine and only took about 10minutes to come through. Just to be clear, I'm not claiming the $5 off the price for making a post here, I just thought people wanting feedback from a user in good standing here at XDA would appreciate knowing this service is legit.
(lord knows I'd have loved to have seen one post from a user who was clearly trustworthy before I went through the process, no offence to the many helpful people who have confirmed various services before I did, it's just that tiny post-counts invite skepticism of planted posts)
I'll take the €5 then

Typically At&t won't give you a code until approx 6 months after the release of the device. In some instances it is sooner but not normally.

I have never had them give me an unlock code before 6 months. The last phone I tried this for I had it for 2 months which was my galaxy note and they wouldn't do it then either.

I just called AT&T to test this (I have no need to unlock personally), and after telling them I was going on an international vacation for a month, they gave me my unlock code within about 5 minutes. the difficult part was that I had to manually cut down a T-Mobile sim I had laying around, but a few snips of the scissors later my phone was unlocked for free.
hi, i'm new here. i don't know anything about phones. i just switched from AT&T to T-Mobile. i'm using a galaxy note 2 (at&t). with a t-mobile sim card. i got the unlock code from at&t and it is not working. it tells me the unlock network is "unsuccessful" and i've already tried it like 6 times. i'm only aloud 10 attempts. can someone please help me? i don't want to root or flash or whatever. i don't know how! i don't even know what that means.. please help!!
#1. Why did you try 6 times if it didn't work after the third time?
#2. Are you sure you have the correct code from THEM???
If it's not working then it seems that it's the incorrect code!
I would contact AT&T again, if that's where you got your code from!
Which would have been sent to you in an e-mail. Because I have done it myself, but not for this device...
#3. Before trying again MAKE sure you have the CORRECT code!!!

Well I tried like 3 times, then stopped. then I read you might have to wait 24 hours after receiving the code, so I tried again a couple more times after waiting a day. yes, I got the code emailed to me after filling out the request for online. I've called them multiple times, spoke to 2 tiers of technical support. got sent to a corporate store just to be turned away at the door because they can't unlock phones. so why was I sent there? Who knows. at&t is no help. I don't know what else to do. I already switched my number to tmobile. it's been over a week and I already got my first bill for a phone I can't even use. I've been without a phone for over a week. This is so irritating

OK if you really want to unlock it that bad there's a few things you can do.
But IT involves flashing your PHONE!

thank you for your help, but honestly that looks like a different language to me. i can not even begin to comprehend all that info. i'm sorry
you should have unlocked it before you switched to tmobile..
I'll give you credit for admitting you dont know the first thing about phones, and dont want to even try flashing anything..most people who know nothing about this flash anything and everything and totally ruin their phones..
Not sure what you can do about this; I would think to unlock an ATT phone, you need to have a ATT sim card in there..
Bajanman knows more about this than I do..

To use the unlock code, T-Mobile Sim is in the phone, boot it up, a menu asking for unlock code, type code, after a few seconds a message verifying network unlock replaces the code box. It's immediate, because the unlock code is stored in the phone.
You should verify the IEMI number under the battery -- that's what they need to retrieve the code from their database.
I vote for bad code or bad typing. Is there any way to backtrack your customer service efforts and get at&t to recheck their work?
I would

hi - i have a htc one x locked to orange uk, its totally original phone and never has never been rooted or modded before, i purchased an unlock code and the seller is 100% sure thats its the corrrect unlock code for the phone but it doesnt work, after several times of trying the code it still says " unlock code ir wrong".i thought perhaps unlock code was wrong so i bought another from another seller, it was the same unlock code....phone still obviously wont unlock...is this a deliberate ploy by orange to stop people using other sims in their phones.. I also have reset the phone to factory settings and tried with diffrerent sim like gif gaff, vodaphone etc but still remains locked and wont accept the unlock code. I have no reason to doubt the seller. im in the uk. Ive read somewhere that it may have something to do with the radio.zip whatever that is. To be honest im totally new at this modding lark so would be greatful if someone could walk me through this problem or help me in some sort of way. i would like to use my tesco sim in the phone. Thanks

That's the same reason I didn't get mine unlocked through T-Mobile (greedy @$$€$!) Got mine on eBay and it worked perfectly first time.
If the code isn't working for you and you got the same code from 2 sellers, it looks like your out of luck mate and you'll have to give your greedy network the money.

Signed. I don't know if an unlock code could be per device but if so then we could sign a warranty void clause to get our unlock code. I've seen this happen for another device.
Is it possible to add the note edge 915 a to the petition as well please?
Signed & shared.. Cmon ppl only 7 so far?
I don't want to be negative, but I've used android since 1.5 and had AT&T since then. In that time I've had a few phones with locked bootloaders and I've seen quite a few petitions to unlock it and I've never seen anyone successfully get them unlocked from AT&T, it's always been boot strapped or some other method for bypassing it. Not saying don't try, but don't seriously get your hopes up. Also even if you got everyone on XDA with an AT&T Note 4 to sign it's probably less than 1% of their sales of the Note 4.
