Anybody buy a sim unlock code lately? From where? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I saw a post that cellunlocker.com does not work on the T999. Anybody buy a sim unlock code recently that worked? If so, mind telling me where? I see there are a lot of eBay sellers so if you bought it there and could give me the name of the seller and it worked, I'd appreciate it.

If your on T-Mobile tell that your leaving the nation and they will give u an unlock code.

Haven't had T-Mobile long enough and don't necessarily plan to keep T-Mobile. Bought an unlock code from cell unlocker and it worked fine.

It doesn't matter. You can say you are going for a week out of country for business and need an unlock code. They wouldn't make you end your contract and it doesn't matter how long you have been a customer for them. Just saying.

T-Mobile USA/Telus T989 Samsung Galaxy S2 SIM UNLOCK

Can any one please confirm if Hercules is locked to Tmobile
Thx
AG
Yes! Got it today to use with provider other than TMO but SIM is locked...Looking for unlocking solutions now!
darn it!
thanks for the confirmation.
any idea if the SIM unlock method for the SGS2 works on hercules too?
Try the SGS Unlock app from Market. Let us know if it unlocks.
Ya its a real bummer!
If your talking about the one on the market. I was considering that but it says needs (root) superuser???
I called Tmobile 4 times already. First they said they dont give the SIM unlock yet because of the 14 day return policy, so I would have to call back after then. Calls two and three was "you dont have an account with us? Oh sorry we cant give you the unlock code then... Final call our asked for supervisor and they transfer me to Tech. department. Tech guy was cool and gave me a number to fax my receipt showing I paid full retail for two phones plus some add'l info for them to be able to get back to me. He allow them 24-48 to get back to me!!! But it could take as long as 7-14 days. I'm sure each and everyone of them was looking at the SIM code unlock screen as we was talking. BOO TMO!!!
is tmobile really selling the phone for 529.99$?
i checked wirefly and letstalk, they charging like 600$ !

i just bought my phone full price too. and i forgot to ask that girl for the unlock code. i got the phone with 30$ prepaid plan, if coverage is good enought i'm going to cancel att!
Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I can recall is..
You can only request 1 "sim-subsidy unlock" every 6 months. Your post paid account must be active for at least 30 days. Prepaid accounts must be active for 60 days with at least $10 balance in the account. If you purchased a phone at full price, you can fax in your proof of purchase to the "Blackberry & PDA support department" for a response within 24-72 hours.
I work for T-Mobile, I'll check the specifics the next time I'm at work.

That sounds about right on with what I was told. I dont have any sort of account with tmobile so I had to do the fax method so patiently waiting since 24 hours now.
Are they reliable to send if you did fax them receipt or do they still find a loop to say no?

This is exactly what you need to do. I called to do it but actually never did, though they sent me the code. I decided it was better for me to just keep my number active for emergencies when I went abroad.

Do any of you mind requesting the unlock code for my Hercules? I am not a T-mobile subscriber. My cousin tried to do it for me, but they wanted a copy of the sales receipt....I bought from a phone shop, not an authorized T-mobile store, so I don't think they will accept my receipt.

I tried to help out someone off of Craigslist before by doing this. You will have to allow someone you trust who is a T-Mobile customer to put their sim card in your phone for a couple of days for T-Mobile to pick up the phone. I tried getting the code by using the persons imei number and they accepted it and then sent me an email 24 hours later about my sim card not being in the phone.

I tried going through the beaurocracy (or however it spells) of T-Mobile to get an unlock code, but never got one for various reasons. You're better off at least trying.
If you don't get it, cellunlocker.net is not a scam. I ordered an unlock code from them for my T989 and got my code within the day. All is unlocked and fine.

Root and Unlock SIM

so this is my first Android phone where unlocking the SIM card is possible. i've been with Verizon and Sprint so long that i never bothered looking up the unlocking abilities/procedures. the only unlocking experience i've had in the past have been with iPhones, where the jailbreaking software has an option to unlock the SIM card as well.
and i didn't know that you have to ride out your 2 year contract before AT&T will unlock your phone. i've tried searching around here, but i couldn't get a good answer. i kept finding threads in regard to a Canadian carrier where you dial a number + an unlock code, but then some ROMS didn't allow the dialing of that number to work (or something like that).
is there a method to unlock the SIM card of the AT&T version without waiting out the 2 year contract?
yes, just keep asking. use online chat. i got both my devices unlocked, one after 25 days of owning and one after 2 days. you do not need to wait out your contact, that only applied to the iPhone.
p.s. the other two larger unlock Sim threads in this board detail all this for you.
Sent from my Galaxy S III
ATT will unlock the SGS3 after owning it for 15 days, and as long as your last months bill is paid in full.
call them, or chat them and ask for it :laugh:
thanks for the info. i totally missed the Q&A section somehow.
in related to other threads i found, should i try to unlock the SIM card first before rooting/flashing a custom ROM?
They are mutually exclusive items to do on your phone. One does not affect the other. So to answer your question you can do whichever task you want to have done first.
That said, I like knowing my phone is carrier-lock free asap, so I'd unlock first to get that done.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
thank you for the info!
just got off the Web Chat with an agent. all i did was simply ask for an unlock and he gave me the unlock code to use once inserting a non-AT&T SIM card.
i didn't have to provide a reason or anything.
now all i have to do is locate a non-AT&T SIM card to test the unlock, and then i can proceed to rooting this. hopefully the stable AOKP will be part of today's release.
I just dropped by Bestbuy and bought the phone out-right. Un-activated phones and phones without the stock ROM have to use a diff carrier's SIM to activate the unlock screen.
Pick one up on ebay. you can get a T-Mobile micro SIM for like $2. The only thing it's good for is unlocking your phone.
Like the one I bought:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/16086619163...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_500wt_1414
If u got it from best buy you overpaid. Phones are marked up from ATT cost. They are 549.99 with ATT and 700 with BBY.
OP
You can go to cellunlocker.net and put in your IMEI and get a unlock code. Great site. I use them all the time.

Bestbuy does price match. So I got it for $549 plus the $10 in BB rewards.
Why are you telling the OP to pay for it when he doesn't have to?
Guess i'll have to try another time later. Not to mention the guy i chatted with didn't seem too bright. Asked if i could have the SIM Unlock code for my phone, and he said that AT&T sim cards cannot be unlocked.
Told me that it can't be unlocked because it is still contracted to AT&T. Told him i read that people have been getting them unlocked after a couple days of purchasing the device, on contract or not, and he said apparently i was misinformed. haha

lulz;
try a new chat rep, or call them.
like ive said a million times already:
as long as you've had your phone for 15 days or more, and your last months bill is paid in full, you will get an unlock code.
now hook me up with some thanks :silly:
If you're not in a position to call to get the code from AT&T (like me, who got from Ebay and lives in NZ), then cellunlocker.net worked for me in terms of getting a code. Just thought I would mention that for people who see this thread and come to find out about SIM unlocking.
yea, i bought my phone on July 26, so it's been 26 days, and since i just started my contracts with AT&T (new customer), i didn't have a last month's bill to pay. and yet the agent i had unlocked it for me with no questioning.
btw, would i be able to use the LTE SIM card from my old Verizon Galaxy Nexus as a "non-AT&T" SIM card?
If you're waiting on a sim like I was... just install the cm10 nightly for the 21st. It will show the unlock screen upon reboot. I didn't need a dialer code or sim. This bug allowed me to use the code I got from att to successfully unlock my phone.

That is why I listed that site. Cause it works and not everyone has ATT. And sometimes they takes days to get a unlock code. Cellunlocker.net does it within minutes.

After 2-3 months T-Mobile should unlock it for you upon request. Just call them.
So I finally took the time to see if the SIM card from my old Verizon Galaxy Nexus would work.
I turned off my S3, put in the Verizon SIM, and started up. After I unlocked the screen, I was promoted to input unlock code or dismiss. I typed the code in and after a few minutes I was taken to my home screen.
I guess it's safe to say my S3 is now unlocked? If I really want to make sure, I would have to have a working SIM to put in my S3?

Really? I chatted with them online, asked them if there was any way i could have the unlock code for my phone, should the need arise that i have to use it on a different network. Had my code in like 10 minutes.
Thanks for all the replies guys.
I am going to buy a unlock code from mobileincanada as they seem to be priced closely to a couple other sites I've looked at, and I figure why not support a Canadian company.
Thanks for replying so quick guys. I really wish there was a free method of unlocking this phone, but oh well.
I chatted with AT&T and told them I was going abroad. Within 3 minutes they gave me an unlock code for free. I have been an AT&T customer for 2 months only.
AT&T has been known to give out unlock codes for free, but can the same be expected of a Canadian carrier? Highly doubt it.. they will gouge you for $50 for something that probably costs them nothing
I don't think they give out unlock codes at all... I haven't heard anyone or read anything from ANY of the Canadian carriers doing that. I've always read AT&T doing it, if you ask politely.
It can be worth the try, it won't hurt to try. If they don't you can always pay for an unlock code... But always try the free route first.
As asked light night and got denied. I've been with AT&T for years. I might be traveling at the end of the month. I did the online chat and was told I would have to wait until my contract was up before they would do it.

Unfortunately that only works on the Stock ROM. Personally I'd rather just pay the ~$10 and get the unlock code rather than going through the hassle of going back to the Stock ROM and running through that method.

LOL, thats funny! You shouldn't have had to even do that - I've been told/and have read, that they will unlock as long as your account is in good standing with them Still though - thats good to hear you got unlocked!
Yea.... i (and many others, as it seems) simply went onto their online chat support, and asked if i could get the unlock code for my phone, just in case the need arises where i have to use a SIM from a different carrier. Took two tries talking to different people, but got it unlocked. I don't think they're quite as strict with the idea of keeping your phone tied to them until the contract is up with other phones as they are with the iPhone in particular.
i got the unlock code from the 1st chat with the rep no problem. i havent been able to get it unlocked because i dont have a different sim.
is it even possible to unlock if i leave the att sim in?

It may be an awful roundabout way of doing it at this point, but maybe if you can get your hands on one of the earlier builds of CM10. There used to be an issue where on the first boot after installing CM10, the unlock code prompt would come up. Don't remember exactly when that was, though....
I sold my sgs2 when I bought my sgs3.
Wanted an unlock code and att refused. I explained that I wasn't trying to cancel my contract and just wanted to give it to my dad since I got a sgs3..
Att still refused but credited my account 150 for my trouble?!?! Haha

GSM Phone unlocking - the easy way....
To get a SIM unlock, all you have to say is that you will be traveling overseas and you need the phone unlocked so you can use a GSM sim local to the places you will be going.
In general, it doesn't really matter much if the SIM is unlocked locally.
Now, if you want the phone unlocked for loading new OS's, the i747 usually does allow loading of other OS's such as CM10 and other Android versions. While the BootLoader is still locked, there are sites where you can get it unlocked. Albeit I hear that you will loose your DRM information because of it.
My son is in the Army and I had a new phone unlocked for him. I explained that he will be deployed and needed something for local GSM coverage, without suffering the costs of AT&T International roaming. Got it unlocked by AT&T in one call.
Just my experience and $.02...
Just spoke to AT&T a few hours ago. They gave me the unlock code for my old Captivate which I had upgraded to an SGS3 a week ago for my wife. I asked about unlocking my SGS3 (1 month old) and was told that they would be able to givw me the code after I had had the phone for 90 days. They also said that I could have only five phones unlocked every 12 months.

As somebody said earlier call t-mobile and talk nice and they might send you the unlock code but this will work only if the phoe is registered with t-mobile (bought from t-mobile)
Else pay for unlock code. many sources available on the web or may try a local dealer who may do it for you.
Good luck
Just read this...damn I was hoping you could unlock it like the G2 bummer guess I'll have to call. I thought you had to have the phone for 3 months though can anyone confirm?
