Is there anyone who can help?
Thank you
AT&T should unlock the Lumia 900 for free, but they do have a couple of restrictions. If you're a business customer, you can call 800-331-0500, and after verifying your eligibility, they'll give you the code on the spot, with an email follow up. If you're a consumer, you can visit their unlock request website at http://www.att.com/deviceunlock . The general requirements list the circumstances that they will unlock your device.
Current AT&T customers may request five device unlock requests per year. Former customers may request up to five device unlocks per former account.
Hope this helps.

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

Took 1 hour or so to get the code. Worked flawlessly.

Thanks

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.
Hello all,
I just wanted to pass on the information to you guys that you can get your Nokia Lumnia 900 unlocked from AT&T to run on a different network....I received my code from them over the weekend and am running it on the T-Mobiles network...
Don't get my wrong it is a complete pain in the A## to get a unlock number from AT&T. But if you want to now the easiest way to get a code from them is to call them and get someone with tier 2 tech support and have them open a case number for you and give them the IMEI number from the phone... AT&, first has you go onto the website and fill out a form for the unlock code and you have to wait 7 days. Than you check it and they tell you that they can not provide it for you, this is incorrect..... Just call and have a case number opened and the will email you the code...
You can get it, you just have to be persistent with them...

Has any one unlocked Nokia Lumia 521? which is locked to network carrier T-Mobile.
Yes, gave them a call after 30 days, then they emailed me the code that week. Tried and works fine on aio wireless now, actually better
Any luck on this yet?
Hi, I am wondering the same thing. I live in the Bahamas and I already tried contacting T-mobile for an unlock code for my lumia 521. They informed me that i needed to have a t-mobile account in good standing or have had one in order to get the code. I pointed out to her that I would love to have one as their service would probably be worlds above what we have now, but that they do not provide service to this country. Therefore I have had no reason or opportunity to obtain a t-mobile account. I asked if there were any other options for obtaining the code, and she spit the same lines she said earlier back at me with an added apology. I thanked her for her time, she apologized some more and i hung up. I am still wary of remote imei unlocking services online, and the shops here charge a hefty price (90usd) to unlock this phone so I am hoping there are some alternatives here.
I apologize if this post is in the wrong place. I am not sure if this warrants a new topic or not.
Any help or advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I wanted to know what happens if I tried 5 times to unlock my fire phone and it was unsuccessful? It says
Thank you for contacting AT&T Customer Care about unlocking your AT&T Mobile device.
We cannot complete your request because this account has reached the maximum number of unlock requests allowed during a given period. If you have questions, please review the AT&T Mobile Device Unlock eligibility requirements by going to this link, ____
Would I ever be able to unlock it again? First time doing this and it failed 5 times on my gophone sim.
EDIT: Willing to pay $100 USD if someone can help successfully unlock the phone.
Hello.
I’ve got a Samsung S22 I purchased from Samsung’s website when it came out (about 1 year ago). It came in an At&t branded box, and it is indeed locked to At&t. I requested an unlock code through them, they said they aren’t able to provide unlock code Because “it is not in the database of devices sold by At&t”
I’ve called At&t several times and each time they tell me the same thing.
I did reach out to Samsung and they said they have no unlock codes, only the carriers can provide this.
The odd thing is that I bought two phones at the exact same time and one of them was able to be unlocked by requesting the code from AT&T’s site.. it took about 5 minutes and they emailed me the code.
I’m curious if there is any other way to unlock, or am I just stuck?
I do see people selling unlock services on eBay or other sites.. Do these people have other methods, or are they just somehow “tapping in” to AT&T’s database?
Any guidance is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Give a link of the site of the store where you bought both phones.
Directly from samsung.com, got the pre order discounts with trade in.
I'm sorry for your purchase problems.
Check your documentation carefully if you ordered both phones as unlocked (or US Cellular) on the order.
If so, refer to your order and demand that Samsung fulfill its sales commitment.
If you ordered AT&T, you should indeed receive the codes from AT&T.
The vendor, Samsung, is responsible for their absence from the database.
When speaking with Samsung help line 800.726.7864, each time they are adamant that they can't provide unlock codes, only the carriers.
Any idea how I would proceed?
Review the order page and see if it says they don't supply the code.
Don't talk to a regular consultant, but demand a call or email contact to sales support or something like that.
Even better if you write an email, which will cause them to have to respond in writing, so that you have proof of correspondence. In that case, don't talk on the phone again.
Let them know what they claim at AT&T about the device not being in their database, which could mean that Samsung is not reliably fulfilling its sales offer. Since it didn't send the device number to AT&T, so it should have done so, since it offered the phone for AT&T's network.
