I have the Engineering Droid 3 and many unlock services said that there is no unlock code in their DB for my phone. Does it make sense to ask VZW give me unlock code?
Also I have no opportunity to contact with Verizon, is it possible to make it distance?

I bought an Motorola Droid 3 from Ebay locked to Verizon because i saw to internet that i could buy codes to unlock it.After i try several solutions to unlock without succes i find out that Verizon changes the codes OTA in phone.
My only chance to unlock the phone is to call Verizon but i live in Europe and i need a contract with them...
Anyway i posted this to find someone who is on Verizon and can call Verizon for unlock code for my phone.
I'll pay 50USD.
Thank you very much i'm waiting replies!
Hello
I wanna ask you guys if you know any SIM Unlock tool for my Droid 3 XT862 from Verizon. Firstly, I'm not in US, so for me contact VZ is impossible. I did purchase for the unlock codes from some websites, but non of them work. So my very last choice is praying for any tool that could unlock my phone.
If you know any one, or how to do that, please help me, my hero
Thanks in advance
No

i used it for my droid 3 and used the guide to get it working with tmobile in the usa but after unlock you will be able to use it anywhere. the guide is only necessary if you want to use it in the usa
the main point is my cell phone isn't unlocked GSM yet. I bought some code on internet, they are all the same code, and it doesn't work with mine
same problem here.
Did you input the code correctly?

Isn't Verizon known to replace the standard Motorola SIM unlock codes with their very own (which forces the user to contact Verizon to get the code, where they would request that the user have an account in good standing for x amount of months before they will give it up?)
This happened to me when I bought a Verizon Droid 2 Global during a visit to the US. No more Verizon phones for me... ever!
I purchased two codes from ebay both works

My understanding is that once user disconnects their phone from Verizon, sometimes Verizon will replace the unlock code with their own code making the code generators to not work unfortunately.
One can put their D3 on Verizon and receive the unlock code (as I understand - so, if you have a friend on Verizon who won't need an unlock code to ask to put your phone on his/her account briefly and request unlock code?). I made sure that the person selling me the phone got the unlock code and unlock the phone BEFORE selling it to me.

I noticed one company offers a more expensive unlock code service beside the standard rate serivce. Not sure if its actually increases you chances or anything, here's the link:http://www.swiftunlock.net/UnlockServices/Motorola.html

I have a Bionic, obviously locked to Verizon US - I tried to purchase an unlock code from a reputable seller who was nice enough to refund me due to the fact that they were unable to generate a code...
I do not have Verizon anymore so I assume they wont be much help.
Any way I can somehow get an unlock code and instructions for my device?
No because it doesn't take one. You have to hack the phone to enable GSM, but when you do, it's unlocked already, though getting it to actually work can be a pain...see the Bionic on T-Mobile thread.
Hi I have an opportunity of buying one of these and understand from elsewhere that: 'All Motorola phones locked to Verizon Wireless (USA) are not supported for unlocking. Do not purchase the unlock service if your DROID 3 is locked to Verzion. '
Which strongly indicates to stay away from it?
The current owner says:
I brought the unlock code but it has already been entered wrong to many times and is now subsidy locked. I have already spent nearly $600 on this phone Is there any way to unlock it?
If there is, can anyone point me to the resource url or give advice thanks vm.
Alistair.
If it is subsidy locked then your only hope is to flash it to Cricket or some other CDMA carrier from the way I understand it.
I have a Verizon Droid 3, and tried CellunlockerPro for sim unlock code, but did not work. They said the unlock code may have been change by Verizon via OTA update, and can only be unlocked by Verizon. Unfortunately, I'm not a Verizon customer... Can anyone kindly help to use your Verizon account to get the unlock code for my phone? will pay $10 for your trouble. Thanks.

Try unlock4moto.com and see what they provide. If that doesn't work, then that's your only option. That site specializes in unlocking Motorola phones.
Really works

unlock4moto.com really works and they could provide me the code for a cheap price, 6 bucks
also if you got the screen on Verizon Droid asking for "activate your phone" (which would make you call verizon) there is a way to skip that
just tap the 4 corners clockwise mode of that screen starting with top left and than tap android bot in the center
this will skip the activation and actually take you to the phone main screen :laugh:
tried swiftunlocks.reseller

I just unlocked one for $5.00 and it works and less than one hour.
