i need a program or aplication for unlock the carrier! my phone is root but not unlock!
You will have to contact your carrier, or the one that the phone was originally on. They will give you a Sim unlock pin number, then you insert the foreign sim and enter the pin. Voila!
You really only have 2 choices:
1) Get the code from T-Mobile (it doesn't have to be your account, can ask friends for help)
2) Get it from 3rd party (for example ebay sellers). This will probably cost you about 25 dollar.
As far as I know there isn't any program that can do sim unlock for the slide. Correct me if Im wrong.
I think the mytouch 4g has this option in some program (i rooted a mytouch 4g a few months ago), maybe it can be ported to the slide? idk
There is no program... Your best bet is call T-Mobile and have an account in good standing*meaning you have paid your bill and it won't be past due*I would tell them you are going out of the country for a vacation so you need it to use a prepaid sim out there.
Then there is also sites that get you the unlock code as suggested by users above enjoy.
or if you don't have a tmobile account, find a friend that has tmobile. Maybe someone on this site could help you out?
requesting an unlock code is free, and any tmobile customer can do it for you.
I think a master thread for unlocking phones should be made. I'm sure all the users on this site could help each other out with something as simple as unlock codes. Unlock codes are something you shouldn't have to pay for, especially if you can get one for free.
Coming from an AT&T customer using a T-mobile mytouch 3G Slide. Got mine unlocked kindly by the man who sold the phone to me on eBay. No charge
Hi everyone, I just bought a Samsung S4 mini for AT&T and I want to unlock it. ATT refuses to help me because I am a second hand owner and I have to contact the original owner of the device. I don't get why because the phone has a clean IMEI and is not lost or stolen and there was no remaining balance.
Is there anyway to unlock it without ATT? I don't want to use one of those unlocking websites because they're very expensive. I was trying to unlock it by getting into service mode from the dialer but I guess ATT removed service mode because I can't get into it. Can anyone help me with this?
Anybody? I know a lot of people have this phone, someone's got to be able to unlock it
ATT has the code
Has anyone unlock their AT&T note 4 yet? i have a couple of techincal questions here.
1. When you try to use tethering without a tethering plan from ATT, it will tell you to contact ATT, will the same happen if you already unlock the phone?
2. Did anyone try to unlock their phone by any way other than contacting ATT?
I used imei-unlocker.com it's like 30bucks. Was a waste of money because they don't refund unless it doesn't work. AT&T sent me the same code a day later. But because I bought the phone from best buy they had a problem making the imei to unlock. Idk. I just had to get it unlock asap to switch to tmobile. But the tethering works without asking anything. For tmobile that is.
If anyone can read this, this is a fact. Sprint will NOT unlock a Samsung Note 4. I have one, its paid off, i called numerous times to have it unlocked as they told me its unlockable approved. They give me a lot of non-sense, connect me with different people, the first 3 reps will say YES, the fourth will say NO. Why does Sprint not unlock my phone if its paid off. It's quite mind-racking and confusing. Anyone have any advice on this matter??? P.S THE CODE 104953 DOES NOT WORK....so MOVE ON!!!
I know they can and will unlock the sim for international use. You just have to tell them you are travelling to another country and want to pay for temporary service from a carrier in that country. they have to unlock the sim for that purpose. As for unlocking the sim for use on U.S. gsm networks i don't know about that one. I'm sure it can be done with the right tools but sprint doesn't offer this and most tech employees haven't a clue how to do it because it's not officially supported by sprint in the first place. Only international sim unlock can be achieved with the help of sprint. This is in their terms of service!

I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with Sprint and was able to get it unlocked. I have AT&T service now and use a sprint Note 4 on it. No Sprint did not unlock it for me I paid idone.apps $40 to do it and sure enough it worked. The only issue I have had is my data speeds. My phone currently only allows a 3G data connection. I am currently looking for a solution however, it's not that slow so I may just keep it as is.

Yeah they will unlock it for international use (it even works on all compatible US carriers too I was told when I asked). I it easy just go here (https://sprintworldwide.custhelp.com/app/chat/chat_launch/?ECID=vanity:swwsupport) feel out the page. You should be in touch with someone not long after and a few minutes later they will unlock your phone and tell you to restart your phone if it doesn't do it itself (mine did it itself)
I bought a used Sprint Galaxy S6. I can't unlock it because I never had an account with Sprint and they only unlock phones for people who have an active account. I suppose I could make an account if I wanted to use Sprint (not sure right now) and then get it unlocked. I'm not sure if that would really work.
I have an unlock code that I got from the company which I bought the phone from, but I cannot get the phone to prompt me for the unlock code, even when I put a foreign SIM in the phone.
I've been frustrated with this situation for a while. I'd be willing to pay someone to do a remote unlock and root.
