incorrect unlock code from AT&T - Nokia Lumia 900

i got two nokia lumina 900's, one unlock code that they provided was good, the second unlock code for the second phone is not good I got the unlock code from AT&T. However, it just doesn't work. When I was asked for an unlock code on Lumia 900, I input the 8 digits code, press Enter, and it said "incorrect PIN". I've called AT&T services tons of times, and it ends up that they asked me to call Nokia support. The IMEI I gave to them is 100% correct, and AT&T stated again and again they've given me the right unlock code. If anybody can help me with this i would greatly appreciate it, I am pretty much stuck right now and I don't want to sell it and for someone else to have the same problem. Thank you

I am also facing this stupid problem. The Unlock Code provided by AT&T is not working, I tried to unlock the phone with AT&T and non AT&T sim.
I even contacted Nokia Customer care and was redirected to AT&T. Nokia statement "Nokia is not responsible for the Lock and Unlock of the mobile. This is done by AT&T, and Nokia cannot help"
I tried contacting the AT&T customer care again and was told they cannot help me. If the code is not being accepted by the mobile, at&T is not responsible.
Stupid AT&T, will soon move to T-Mobile

Ask for a supervisor, and a case with the unlocking department.

did u get any info on the unlock coz mine to is the same problem , the code is incorrect for my nokia lumia 900

i get the unlock code for my lumia900, but when i type the code into the device, it show me the code is incorrect. and I am sure the code is right, because i call them again and get the same code as first time. so what should I do right now. i only have 3 attempts remaining.
please help me :crying:

Just try 2 attempts remaining. Then it say your sim card blocked. Now, you put your unlock code in and see what happend. I unlocked my phone successful with this method. Hope it will work with you.

Try Adding A Zero infront
I also got an unlock code from ATT which didn't sem right because it looked a number short. I had 10 attempts to play with. I tried 3 times with the code and each time it said it was wrong. Then I did something, I added "0"infront of the numbers they gave me and it worked. So I guess some unlockers do not consider the Zero a factor, but apparently the phone does. Just try that and see. Just my experience. Hope it helps some of you.

well mine is already 8 digit code , which starts with 0 . anyone got a correct code after the wrong code from at&t . share here please

Sea problem here, 4 websites gave me the same 8 digit code but its the incorrect one, ATT won't entertain me cause I am a non ATT Customer. Have 4 attempts remaining.
What do I do?

Even with AT&T customer care, the unlock code is not working. The Unlock code provided by the AT&T customer care does not work with my mobile.
AT&T customer care is unable to resolve the issue and same response from Nokia.
I will never buy AT&t contract in future. Sick

Very simple dude, you get 10 tries to enter the right unlock code. Every time you try it says incorrect code which in fact is the right code.
You exhaust the your 10 permits by entering the code again and again, it will then ask you for the PUK code. That's when you again enter the code you have.
Voilà, your phone will be unlocked.
Hope this is clear

@pyk: I have the same situation as your. I am still waiting more than two weeks for the answer from AT&T, . Please confirm this method. Thank you very much!
@chimcanhcut: do you try this method?

Why the sim unlock code t-mobie sent me is not working, please suggest?

I bought a t-mobile dash with WM5 from ebay, I sent the request for sim unlock to t-mobile, and I also received the sim unlock code soon. but the unlock code is not working in my dash, when input the code two times, the below message appeared :
you have tired 2 times please wait for retry.
but I know if I try much many times, the phone will be permanently locked, so I did not try again. I also send email to t-mobile, but no feedback so far.
appreciate anyone suggest me. thanks
have nice day to all
make sure when you provide the IMEI is correctly spell, and also whether your phone IMEI (*#06#) and the back of your phone IMEI is the same, and that number is the number that you give to them. I got mine unlock with t-mobile too, my phone IMEI is two number extra more than the one i found from the back but they will figure it out and send me the correct unlocked code.
If the IMEI you provided is correct, then the previous owner nuked the configuration data or entered too many times a wrong code. I would be able to verify and correct that. Drop me a PM and I will make you a reasonable offer.

same as your situation, my phone IMEI is also two number extra more than the one on the phone back, but I send the t-mobile the phone IEMI(*#06#), not shorter one, if the unlock code is correct, i do not know why it is not working. what should i do next?

The code you will get from them will be the same as the one u got from T-Mobile and also the same as I would find for you: there is only one unlock code. However, your problem is that either the simlock data area is corrupted or the prev owner tried to enter unlockcodes too many times. Ah well, tried to explain that already ...

Hey could you explain to me how to do this? What it is? ect. i am a bit of a noob. lol
As i had the same issues as the guy above.
orange codes
with orange phones you may have to enter twice.
so once you have entered and it will ask you again .
enter the code again and it will work
Once i enter the code it says "Network Unlock Successful" but when i get to the main screen i have no signal, and if i reboot the phone it asks for the unlock code again, help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Same here. Tried everything. Rooted it, flashed with custom firmware MoDaCo. Bought code from HTCCode.com (ripoff). And now am waiting for the isim 2008 from DealExtreme ...
Don't be fooled by HTCCode, like I was. They profess to be able to unlock any phone to any operator. They hadn't bargained for the HTC Tattoo on Orange and probably some other flavours.....
My understanding, and feel free to correct if I'm wrong, is that there's a radio ROM that has been tied down by Orange and at last check they haven't been able to flash it (i.e. get rid and replace by a less tied down one). Within that ROM there's a CID check which doesn't want to respond to any code you throw at it.
My advice is pick up a vanilla Tattoo (play.com do them now for £180), or you could try an iSmartSim (it didn't work for me, but there have been reports of some success)

AGREED!
Here is MY experience with HTCCODE (also known as member "ferraripassion"), and his pathetic attempts to unlock an HD2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657751
I am amazed the admins allow him to continue to prey on members here!
HTCCODE finally DID come across for me. It took some "work"... He claims he sent the code last night.. not quite the "2 minutes" that were brandished, but I did receive it, nonetheless, So I wasn't "ripped off."
Just setting the record clear (for ANYONE who actually cares).
Hi i'm buy code from htcsimunlock . com and key doesn't work, after 24h they didn't refund money. Anyone who has experience with them?
Don't get in trouble!
Somtimes it is easier spending 15 Eruros and 30 minutes than trying magic.
Just one advice. The process erase the data, so remember to do a NAND BackUp before.
I did it before changing from Vodafone to Simyo.
Now i have got a free Tattoo and also changed the ROM.
Just pm me if you need a code

Those codes won't work (Not that they are wrong but because of the Tmobile Rom). I have been able to successful unlock the SM-920T by flashing the SM-G920T1 rom (Metro) but because the S6 edge is not released on Metro i am trying to find out an international rom that would work. I just tried the Tmobile Germany Rom and it failed.

This method works for sure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxOuHIUWAFk
I can do it for you and even support 5.1.1 . no rooting needed no teamviewer.
yes , via S3X box, its a way, flashing out a custom cert, i paid to theunlockpros ,25 bucks, in 10 minutes they do the magic remotely , im very happy , super fast
by any chance can you unlock the lg g4 model H811?
The most surefire way to get your unlock code is to finish paying for your phone. At least if you are in the US. It is the law. They have to give you the unlock code if you OWN the phone. If you are currently financing it then you have to try this way. But I warn you Triple warn even WARNING WARNING WARNING no mater what anyone says. unlocking your phone by these means will get you what you want but you will have boot problems later. Your EFS gets totally screwed from doing the remote unlock. Don't say I didn't warn you.
*EDIT*
Plus stealing is really bad karma anyway.

vouch for that guy!! he's unlock my phone, but you need to root your phone tho
there is a tmoblie app on the phone that lets you request an unlock. look in the tmoblie folder in the app drawer. After that, activate Dev options by hitting the build number and turn on OEM unlocking in the dev options

So youre saying you have a T-Mobile Galaxy S6 Edge and you unlocked it with a code? I have my code on order for this phone we purchased, but it does not prompt for a code. You used the #7465625*638*# option to do this?? I read in another forum that once the code is entered in there and the message is successful, once it reboots you still get a network error..
Please let me know the exact steps you used on your TMob S6 edge once you had the code. Thanks dude.

In my case, I have an unlock code, I input the code by #7465625*638*# without a sim and connected to the wireless. It said Unlock succesful. I reboot before putting a sim for a locked company (TELCEL from Mexico) in the phone and it is still locked.
Still waiting for the custom rom to try to unlock it that way. Galaxy S6 Edge from T-Mobile is the only carrier with this problem I guess.
I already asked for T-mobile to unlock it. They say I am totally elegible for unlock it (by app), but I had to wait for the process in their system.
I 'll tell you if this status change.

I already asked for T-mobile to unlock it. They say I am totally elegible for unlock it (by app), but I had to wait for the process in their system.
I 'll tell you if this status change.

Yeah, I just purchased one at our store which is financed assuming I could just buy the code like we always do.
I quoted user: Z51 or whatever because he says he ordered his code from unlockdeals and successfully unlocked a TMobile S6 Edge. I hope he responds and clarifies what he did to get this to work because it seems like everyone else cant get it going. I NEEEEED this phone unlocked in order to sell it for the full amount I was hoping.
We may need to be a bit patient...

Hi everybody,
I´ve got my galaxy S6 edge (network locked) from t-mobile. Immediately ordered an unlock code. It tooks 24 hours to receive the code, but rigth now, a week later, the code isn't working. I´ve tried to unlock the phone by several days, but the code it's not working. It simply doesn´t unlock the phone.
Anyone have the same problem ? Did you get it unlocked ? If so, can you share us the way you manage to unlock it?
Thanks in advance.

From what I understand, you have to flash a METROPCS S6 EDGE stock rom on top of your phone to get rid of T-mobiles nasty unlocking app restriction.
Even if you use those dial pad codes into your phone it wont work.
Which brings up the question: How long till MetroPCS releases the S6 EDGE and someone dumps the stock ROM here in our forums. Then we are good to go.
I unlocked a lot of phones and they ALL get unlocked by inserting a NON accepted sim card into the phone and they prompt for a message " SIm network unlock Pin"
Hope this helps!

I was told that MPCS isn't releasing the edge, S6 only.

[Q] Having trouble unlocking phone from Wind

Man, what a nightmare...
I moved from Vancouver to California in February, and I've been trying to unlock my phone from Wind ever since. They provided me with an unlock code that doesn't seem to work. Then, after waiting 30 days for them to get me a new code, they gave me the same one. At this point, I doubt that the code is a mismatch to my IMEI, but it's just not working...
Here's the facts:
I have a SGH-T999V running 4.4.2. When I put in the T-Mobile sim card that I'd like to use and then try to put in the unlock code, I get an error message saying that the unlock code was unsuccessful.
Here are the questions that I have:
Do I need to be on the Wind Network to have the unlock code work? I selected T-Mobile as the network operator ever since I moved down to California.
It seems like other people with my version of the phone have had similar issues...is there a solution to this problem?
Can the fine, fine people of this forum help?
This has been a problem since 4.3 with some Samsung devices. Only thing I can suggest is try regionlock away from chainfire to see if it will unlock, which is probably unlikely. Make sure you are on stock firmware with stock kernel

Hi,
What message are you getting after inserting the code Wind provided?

Hi Andrew, it just says "Network unlock request unsuccessful."
I tried rooting my phone and using regionlockaway, which said that the patch was successful, but it seems that wasn't the solution.
It's pretty frustrating since I paid Wind for the unlock code, but it won't unlock my phone! Do you think that there is anything else I can do?

Only other thing is to contact Samsung, since it seems to be a Samsung issue at this point

Welp, I'll give it a try, but I've seen in other posts that people have been given the runaround by Samsung, who say, "This is because of how Wind locked your phone, can't help you."
I'll update this post with my progress, in case other people are having the same trouble.
