Hello Guys,
I've bought an Lumia 900 "UNLOCKED" from a seller store at Ebay, in USA.
It's a gift for a friend that lives in Brazil.
Im here at Brazil now, and when I input the non att sim card, it opens a screen asking for PIN (Im already at PUK with 10 tries left.) It says: "This SIM card can only be used on specific networks and it's blocked. Contact your customer service center for he unblock code.
I've called to TIM, tried the SIM PIN and PUK codes. And I've got the unlock code from the Lumia seller and another ebay seller
wich was: 5947**** <> They said this is the same code for any Lumia.
It didn't work, even with the workout.
The IMEI was correct.
Then, I updated the phone to the last update avaliable,
and Nothing!!
The seller told me that him contacted ATT and the phone wasn't in blacklist.
I don't have any* idea of what to do next.
Can you guys help me ? :fingers-crossed:

I Ordered MDAIII from T-Mobile , I didnt get yet but can some one help me with unlocking this phone . Is it posible to unlock this phone to use other GSM Networks. Will unlocking of extended ROM do the trick which I found in some other topic in this forum .
10x in advanced
Should come unlocked but it will be in German.
I got the MDAIII on T-Mobile in the UK and had to pay £15 for them to give me an unlock code.
AAARGGHHHH! - Unlocking T-Mobile (UK) MDA III Sim
Bought this device earlier this month. Can anyone help provide the unlocking sequence cause T-Mobile certainly can't! They say they can provide the unlocking code (eventually) but not the sequence, and to get it I have to contact the device manufacturer! I`m travelling to the USA in 1 weeks time and want to use a T-Mobile USA SIM card whilst there. :x
What do you mean by sequence.
T-Mobile gave me an unlock code - I put my O2 SIM card into the MDAIII and it asked for the unlock code - I entered it. It is now unlocked and works with my O2 SIM
Hmmm, never having unlocked a SIM card before I am going by T-Mobile's advice that there is a specific sequence of key stroke entries that need to be followed before I get to the screen that asks for the code. From what you say it might be no more difficult than taking out the UK SIM card, replacing it with the USA SIM card, a screen appears asking for the unlock code which I enter, and hey presto - job done!
Have I read this right? Is this all you do?
Yes, you are right. It is as simple as that.
MDAIII unlock code availability
Who or where at T-Mobile UK can a SIM unlock code be purchased for 15 pounds? I just got my MDAIII from the Oxford Street retail store but need to use it in areas overseas without T-Mobile service.
Thanks...
I telephoned CS and they gave me the unlock code
italian Rom for xda III
Has anyone an italian rom for XDA III?
Thank you

O2 XDA2s lock
I got my xda2s a week ago and when i called O2 they told me that there is no way i can unlock my phone before the 12month contract ends!
That is really annoying,but they told me its part of my contract agreement!(which i haven't seen mentioned anywhere...)
I need to use it in another network over the christmas, so if there is any other way i can get this unlock code you are talking about, or any software that takes away the lock PLEASE share it.
I really appreciate it.
George
It may be worth ring O2 again. It seems to me that it's the luck of the draw whether you get someone in customer services who
a. gives you the unlock code immediately
b. charges you for an unlock code and unlocks it immediately
c. tells you it can't be done until the end of the first 12 months of your contract.
T Mobile Unlocking
I recieved my MDA III Yesterday :lol:
I phoned T mobile straight away on 150 (from the handset) they were very helpful and told me they are happy to unlock it :lol: :lol:

only 30 days to go :wink:

georkal woudl you please tell me exactly-
Which customer service number you have called?
How can you tell them to unlock the phone? (I hv Voda Sim? I go overseas?)
Thanks a lot indeed
I'm glad you got it sorted georkal.
It's always been like this with O2, I wonder what there 'official' policy is supposed to be? Everyone who calls them seems to get a different answer.
o2 - no help at all!
Hi there,
I have tried O2 a number of times, and each time I come across the same problem - if you aren't an 02 customer, then no unblock for you.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get this thing unblocked?
Tony
Phone your own provider. I'm on T-Mobile and had to pay £15 to get it unlocked.
I spoke to O2 Cust Service 202 many times......
(1)bring it to shop they will unlock for ya
(2)impossible
(3)not until 12 months later
Keep calling - 02 will give the unlock eventually.
I just told them that I was travelling to the US and wanted to connect to a different network while I was there. My unlock code is in the post right now - can't wait!

Hey,
Just wondering if anyone on Rogers has tried to get a cell unlock for the Lumia 900 from remotecellunlock.com?
Basically I placed an order for a code on April 23 (gave them my details like IMEI, Model Lumia 900, and Carrier etc), and I got an email from them later that day saying they were unable to generate a code for me and they would reimburse me. Well I tried to shoot them a response both in the email and in the contact form on their site saying that people on Rogers with the Lumia 900 have been able to get an unlock code from them, but till now I have had ZERO response. The $8.99 has already been charged from my credit card via Dalpay and they have yet to reimburse like they said.
Anyone know whats going on? Thinking about doing a chargeback, but I thought I would check here to see if anyone else has had any problems with them.
Thanks
cellunlocker.net
Took 1 hour or so to get the code. Worked flawlessly.

That's really strange. I got an unlock code from them in about 4 hours on April 19 for a Rogers Lumia 900. The code worked perfect and I have been using it on Bell since then.
Did you check your junk spam folder?
Yeah I checked my spam folders.
This was actually the email I got from them a few hours after I ordered:
"Dear Customer,
Sorry I have been unable to generate the correct unlock code for your mobile. There are so many mobile out there sometimes the firmware on certain versions mean I cant generate the code.
I have sent your details over the accounts team who will send you a refund. Although normally quicker please allow up to 7 days for the refund to get back into your account.
Once again I apologise for not being able to get the correct code for your mobile. Your only option may be your network operator or a local shop who can unlock via a cable.
Best Regards,
remotecellunlock.com"
I sent them a reply after asking if there was some sort of mistake because others have been able to get a code, but since that message I've gotten no response whatsoever from them. Further emails and inquiries made to their contact form have also not yielded any response. So I think I'll wait until tomorrow then do a charge-back...
Double check the IMEI you gave them.
Type *#06# and make sure all 15 digits match.
lumia 900 at&t Unlock
Hi,
I bought the nokia lumia 900 off contract phone from at&t, i spoke to the customer service and they are telling me the unlock codes for the phone will not be released till october 8th. Is there anybdy who has been able to unlock their at&t lumia 900? if so can you please tell me how you did it? i dont wanna sit with a paper weight for 6 months.
Are you in Canada? Bought from At&t, do they have AT&T where you are?
I am currently in Saudi Arabia. I bought the phone online from at&t USA. Do you think the phone can be unlocked? I bought it because it was off contract and now I am left wondering if it was a wrong choice to make.

AT&T lumia cannot be unlocked at this time. There is a huge thread here on xda abou it.
Sent from my Lumia 900 using Board Express
Yep you gotta run AT&T .. I read in another thread a Canadian was able to call and get an unlock code, but the vast majority.. no luck
There are conflicting reports.

So, I received an unlock code from AT&T and just back from Bell after getting a micro sim card to fit into the Lumia and everything seems to be working OK. I was very persistent with AT&T about them providing an unlock code, basically I didn't take no for an answer and didn't accept their October and December dates. The store new they were selling a phone off contract to Canadian who's plan was to use it out of the country.

Good luck.
Most likely the reason that they couldn't give you an unlock code is due to the IMEI you gave them. Not that you made a mistake, but that their 'unlocker' is probably set for only certain codes.
As others have replied, it's probable that they cannot unlock IMEI's that were assigned to AT&T.

ATT typically wait at least 6mo before releasing an unlock code; it can sometimes be like pulling teeth to get the code from them, even then. That doesn't mean they don't have a code now. You might be able to sweet-talk a pliable rep into helping you, in your special circumstances. Good luck.
I recent bought a Arc S from someone on kijiji (according to him, this phone is locked to Canada rogers), and when I started the phone, it shows the Rogers logo as well.
the problem is, this phone does not work with rogers sim card, it displays
“This sim card cannot register with this network”, if I insert others like bell or telus, it will request a unlock code.
first, I went to rogers store, they found out this phone warrenty expires at June 28th of 2013, which is wierd, then they told me they could not fix it because I didnt buy it from rogers store.
So I bought one unlock code from "cellunlocker.net" and trying to use it on another network, however it failed again, told me code is wrong!
I have contacted with "cellunlocker.net" about this, they insist this is right code and can not do anything about it
what can I do now?
can anyone give me an advice before I throw it away or sell it as defect phone?
thanx
So I got my hands a new Nexus 5X from an EE retail store in UK, although I'm happy to use EE for everyday use there are times when I travel and need to swap SIMs due to black spots. Much to my horror and bemusement I discovered that my brand new 5X is indeed network locked, so there's that myth put to bed for non believers.
I have requested an unlock code from the network, unfortunately patience is not one of my strong points, does anyone know of any sites that offer an unlock for the 5X? I tried one this morning but it came back 'no code found'. If anyone knows of a site that can help, I'd appreciate a PM with the details.
Thanks.
For what is worth, I also got, from. my local carrier a brand new Nexus 5X. LG H790. Well, it turns out to be Network locked as well. Whenever the phone is turned on with the SIM in of another carrier it asks for: "SIM Network Unlock PIN"
I went on and bought online from two different companies sim unlock codes, from the first company: SimUnlock dot com was not able to found a code and after a few days, said so snd proceed to reimburse me.The second company: MasterUnlock dot com did return, very quickly (fte minutes after online purchase) a few codes, named
NCK NSCK SPCK CPCK SIMCK, tried the NCK and the SPCK as per the instructions received but none worked "unlock unsucessful", seems they are also reimbursing me.
So, I dont know whats next, as the carrier wont give out the unlock codes.
My Nexus 5X is locked to Mexico's carrier Telcel.
I have just had this exact same issue (EE UK). I didn't realise this was now a thing! I honestly thought these companies had grown up by now. but apparently not.
Has anyone come across a solution to these? If not, does anyone know if these codes are carrier specific and individual, or generic?
I'd appreciate any info anyone has on this as it's a new thing to me!

Hello,
Bought Razr 5g at&t, have unpaid case lock USA.
live outside usa, so if unlock no problem for me or operator.
have bought unlock service several times on ebay, on some websites but they can not unlock.
what can i do? find another services to unlock or wait maybe after some time it will be more easy to get codes? which trusted websites or ebay service you know?
I know I'm replying pretty late to this however we are not the only ones that have looked into this subject. If the Motorola RAZR 5g is from att and you just got it att will not let you sim unlock until after a year of service with the device ce. After a year you can request a sim unlock and will email you a code for free to unlock it. I've done it yesterday without a hitch. If you purchased the device from somebody from online then you may try calling att customer service explaining that you want to unlock the sim for a different service and they may or may not unlock. If the device is reported lost or stolen then obviously they will deny the request. When I bought my RAZR 5g I also tried unlocking websites and failed. I received a code however the code did not work at all. Remember to many attempts and it will lock you out. Unfortunately their is no website that can unlock it without the carrier permission
