Any tool used to unlock this device for free??
At the tried all available apps in the market to unlock galaxy tab but nothing seems to work.... A custom ROM though might be our best luck. But no available at the moment. Still waiting devs :-D
Not that I need mine unlocked but would be nice to have the option. Maybe somebody will come up with something.
Hi. I used sim-unlock.net to unlock my AT&T Tablet. Not cheap at €35 but very quick service. Works well in Malawi, Africa.
None of the unlock apps work and the Hex edit method did not work for me.

I got my unlock code from http://www.cellunlocker.net
Any update on this? How to unlock SGH-i957 AT&T for free...
Looks like the price is dropping...
Got a code for my i957r from http://www.cellunlocker.net/ for $8USD
Not free but at least its done.

Hi Guys, just want to ask about unlocking SIM or Network. sorry I know nothing about these things and want to unlock my phone (Xperia 8 sim to use with different mobile service provider? how can I do that?
There aren't free options, only paid (Omnius, for example).

OK, so what should I do.

You decide, dude. In my case, I unlocked my phone because Omnius had a promotion (all a weekend, months ago, unlocks for free). I think you'll need save some money
Hi guys, I'm a fellow XDA member from the HOX+ neck of the woods. Just got my dad an AT&T Xperia TL and wanted to unlock it for him since he uses it most overseas and was shocked at the cost difference between unlocking my HOX+ (also AT&T) and the Xperia TL...$15 vs $40...and 1hr vs 5 days.
What gives?
Unfortunately there's not much you can do about it. If he needs a sim unlocked phone that badly, he shouldn't have bought one on a contract. You could try searching online, but in my experience it's only shady websites offering sim unlocks. On the other hand, if it's absolutely necessary to sim unlock, $40 is not an extreme amount of money.

It says
All contract obligations, including any term commitment, associated with the device to be unlocked have been fully satisfied.

I'm guessing the contract is still running, as the phone is not yet THAT old.

ATT said they would unlock any phone if you have been a good customer for at least
60

Days and paid your bill
Yes, but that is stated under Additional. So the way I read it is that you first have to fulfill your contract and then, when you have no bills unpaid, they provide a sim unlock.

When I switched from my Samsung S3 to my Xperia TL, I just asked for the unlock code on an online chat session. They gave me the unlock code for the S3 immediately during the chat. But, I guess it could have been because I was selling the S3.
I ended up forking over the $39 for the unlock code. Unfortunately, need to use the phone abroad next week, can't wait the 60 days
Considering I paid $0.01 for the phone from Amazon, $39 doesn't seems like much then.
Just need to wait for the unlock code now, takes up to 6 days. We'll post an update when I get it.
This may have been asked before but I'll ask again, is there no way of getting this phone SIM unlocked for free as of yet?
When i got my phone first thing I done was get it unlocked to all networks which cost me €20.81, I've had to leave my phone in for repairs after I borked it by formatting system and stupidly not having a nandroid backup, I've been informed that I'll just be getting a new handset but this is likely to be locked to o2 where i purchased the phone and im with Tesco Mobile so unless there is another method that's free that i have yet to come across then I'll have to pay again to get the phone unlocked, and that's not good.
When i had a Galaxy S3 I had an apk.called Galaxy SIM unlock which done the trick nicely, why isn't there something similar for this phone to save people from having to pay?

Given no responses im assuming there's no free method as of yet.
I have seen this on eBay, this guy has pretty good feedback and is cheap, can anyone vouch for this seller?

I have tried 5 places to get my phone unlocked but none of them have the code, some were saying try back in 2 weeks time and your code might show up on the server, got refunded straight away.
I think they all get them off HTC so the eBay unlock sellers seem to be the cheapest option.

Got mine from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Unlock-an...ltDomain_3&hash=item257d441929#ht_1461wt_1163
Fast turnaround, and 100% seller feedback...used to unlock both my HTC One, and One X previously
You might have to wait a while if o2 are giving you a new phone as the unlock codes for they're new batch on HTC ones don't seem to be on the server where they get them from.

I'm delighted to say I'm in possession of a SIM unlocked One the bootloader is locked but I'd have expected that anyway and I can unlock that anytime but tried my Tesco Mobile and UK Giff Gaff SIMs and both are fine so that's good i don't have to shell out again.

Strange question, but are you absolutely sure that it's now unlocked? As giffgaff and Tesco mobile all run on the O2 network anyway, and will both work in O2 locked handsets. To be sure, I'd try inserting a Vodafone, 3 or EE SIM just to be sure.

The only SIM cards ive got are Tesco Mobile and Giff Gaff, well i have an o2 one too but i dont use that.
To be honest even if its not unlocked it's fine for me as they are the only 2 SIM's i use.

I wanted to unlock bootloader and therefore checked the root settings. It says that unlock is not allowed. Is that because I bought it over network provider or can I simply ignore it? Is everyone of you able to unlock it?

This has been covered a few times. This means that your carrier has blocked unlocking of the bootloader, so you will NEVER be able to unlock it. There is no way around this.

Do you know what is Unlock Bootlader? Do you know what is SIM Unlock? They have nothing to do one to each other.
Unlocking Bootlader will not Unlock SIM Carrier. To unlock SIM Carrier you have to pay for it.

Actually I did not say any words of unlocking SIM. Talking about bootloader... there is a tool called SETool2. With that it is possible to unlock phones that aren't unlockable. The phone needs to be put into test point mode connecting some pins on the board.
Just wanted to know is anybody has experiences with that.
Ps. .. And in most cases when unlocking the phone the SIM lock vanishes too

I ended up using cell unlocker and it was quick and painless, and I had a working code in no time. (30 minutes maybe?). I would use them again.
Your carrier. They have to unlock the phone now if I'm not mistaken. Maybe you have to have an account with them for a month or so but I just called tmobile and they got me same day free
