If bootloader is unlock, the sim is unlocked too? - Motorola Atrix HD

Hello guys i root my motorola atrix HD and unlocked the bootloader but i dont know is the sim is unlocked?
i still have the 4.1.1 at&t but have super user.

No sim wouldn't be unlocked. That's something you have to get a code online for. Read through the forums and there are topics about this.

Would be nice but unfortunately not the case u have to buy a unlock code to do so i never had to unlock a sim so i dont have any known sources to recommend but there is many.

Unlock Code
I have AT & T Motorola Atrix HD, but I entered the wrong code 5 times and now is not the code is entered again. Is there any way for me to unlock it?

Check Motorola's section in this link: http://www.expressunlockcode.com/Pages/help.aspx
That's what I can help. Good luck!

If you're lucky there is. On Moto Defy and Bravo if you enter the wrong code 5 times in a row you'd be hard sub locked (can't subsidy unlock after that)....a "feature" to prevent us from trying random codes over and over again till we're lucky.

Unlocked Atrix HD
I got mine unlocked but I have no idea if i should root and unlock boot. I don't know if it will present any complications.

There will be no issues from just doing that. In fact it makes it easier that if you screw up your phone you can flash a backup.

Rooting doesn't do much. You can put the phone back in stock without root and they won't really be able to tell if you voided your warranty I believe. But unlocking the boot, that's different. You get this lovely warning screen saying you've done so, but it does have great advantages. Using different ROMS and recoveries is all I can think of at that point. Other than that, not to much to gain other than root. That's what I did for a while, un-installing the stock Atrix HD apps that AT&T gives you helped with battery life for me, so.

Really nice he unlocked the bootloader of my r800i & lt15i.
Both had "bootloader allowed : no" & r800i was sim locked, now it's "bootloader allowed : yes" & fastboot works. (Track id & other sony apps still work too )

I seen your thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680233
And I think you confound the unbranded phone that are unlockable for free (with sony method or s1tool)
and the branded phone (so with this message "bootloader unlock allowed : no") that need paid testpoint method (setool2, omnius, etc).
you dont need to pay for an unlocked bootloader! its really easy to do it yourself

Unless you're CDMA, then you have no choice but to pay. Unless there's something you know that nobody else does.

You need to take a second look at this service. I see no mention whatsoever to unlocking the bootloader. I think they may be referring to the carrier lock that may be in place on some phones if under contract etc...

You do realize that the seller on eBay is NOT unlocking your bootloader.... right? HE is unlocking your phones SIM so that you can use another carriers sim card with it. Then again though, as I am CDMA with an unlocked bootloader I have read that, correct me if I am wrong, that by unlokcing the bootlaoder it also unloks the SIM restrictions as well. I do not know if this is the case with this seller. He may just simply be unlokcing the SIM card restriction.
Quoted from the eBay sellers listing:
"Unlocking a phone is primarily done to allow the user to use the phone with a carrier other than the contracted carrier .By unlocking your phone a user could theoretically use it with any carrier that you choose.
Reseting the user code means reseting the phones user code that is preventing the user from accesing the phone's content to 0000."
Notice I marked where the confusion arises. Perhaps someone should email this seller and ask him if he is just unlock SIM card or the whole shebang....
EDIT: I have emailed the seller. Will report back if/when I hear anything

Did you say that you can do it for free? OMG I'm trying to unlock it a lot of time, I got the unlock sim code (paid) thinking that it will turn "Unlock BootLoader allowed:No" into "Yes" but not and I'm looking for a free method to do it, can u help me? How can I do it from home? I read that if you send an email to Sony with phone's IMEI and unlock SIM code provided and after a few days you need to deliver the phone to Sony and after 15 days it back home full unlocked, but I cannot still 15 days without phone. If you know another method without sending the phone, please, help me with my issue. Thank you very much in advance.

[Q] How to unlock 81.5.31002.xt890.orange.en.gb

Hi all I'm new to this site so please bare with me!!!
I purchased the Motorola RAZR i a few days ago which is currently running system version 81.5.31002.xt890.orange.en.gb.
I have a Vodafone sim which I would like to use in this handset is they anyway of unlockling the system version software to accept my Vodafone sim?
I have unlocked the bootloader through the Motorola website if this helps!!
Thank you for any advice in advance.

Hi king wolf. Yes I would say cellunlocker.net is a reliable website. My phone has been working fine on vodafone for the last few days now.
So, the carrier locked versions can be bootloader unlocked?
Two things that have kept me from trying to snag any of the T-Mobile/Orange ones on eBay (which are cheaper than the unlocked ones) are the limited success in SIM unlocking and the uncertainty about bootloader unlocking. It sounds like cellunlocker can eventually figure out the code to SIM unlock, but I'd rather not live with a locked bootloader again.

Unless you are planning on using development software on your device i think they is no need to unlock the bootloader. Cellunlocker will email you a 16 digit pin which will allow you to use any sim card in the device. If you wish to unlock the bootloader this can be done through the motorola website.
Not sure what you mean by development software, but I do plan to use custom ROMs, plus take advantage of the other benefits of rooting. I know the phone can be rooted without having the bootloader unlocked, but I don't think there's a SafeStrap for it, so we wouldn't be able to flash anything.
Some people seem to not have had luck unlocking the carrier locked versions through Motorola's website, which is why I asked.

Hi,
i ordered the Code from cellunlocker, but it doesnt seem to work. They sent me an unlockcode like this: a524asafasf 123456 123456 w445ßsadf.
So should i use the numbers between the code (123456 123456), and if yes the complete 16 digits or only the first 8?

Is it possible to unlock a Note 3 that has blocked IMEI from ATT?

Hi guys,
Got my hands on a note 3 that is now apparently has a bad IMEI... . I was wondering if it is possible to unlock a note 3 from ATT that has a blocked IMEI? I looked through several unlock services online and all of them will not do blocked IMEIs...
If I can unlock it, I can use it outside of the USA.
Your help is much appreciated! Thank you!
[Updates few days later after original post]
So buying a code end up not working... it said "failed"
I decided to root the phone using the "Root De La Vega" method.
And then use Region lock Away and was able to unlock the phone! Now I am using it with Bell Mobility in Canada.
So if anyone in the future end up with a AT&T N900A Note 3 that has a bad IMEI, they can try the method I used.
Hope this helps, thank you!

if you are familiar with iOS, rooting is the same thing as jailbreaking basically.
a lot of people have been using Kingo to root theirs. you can ask around for help, but doing do will void your warranty so you might just want to pay for the unlock.

You can root it now - see the PIE thread. Unfortunately, this is a partial root - no write access to /system and no custom recovery. Root is lost upon reboot and must perform procedure again. Still useful for things like Xposed and WiFi Tether....
The better option is to try to unlock the bootloader. Since you are using at XT1058 (I'm guessing AT&T branded?) your only option is the china middleman.
Good Luck

NO. Someone wont. You go right ahead and keep flashing files, your phone is going to die. I wouldn't be flashing just whatever to see if it works. That's not a very good idea.

OK, just to clear this up one last time.
1. We can not install custom kernels, Stock TW kernels are not compatible with CM/AOSP/AOKP ROM's
2. the flashing process although it will complete does not mean the ROM will run.
3. There is (currently) no way to circumvent these issues.
4. SafeStrap will NOT flash kernels only the file system.
Some S5 and S5A devices (international models, Tmobile, Sprint) to name a few have unlocked BootLoaders
those devices can and do run CM/AOSP/AOKP ROM's. AT&T has a Locked BootLoader
I really don't mean to sound condescending however this device is fast approaching it's first birthday and many many people have tried to run CM or CM derivitives on the AT&T device, there are tons of threads cluttering the development forums in regards to this issue continuing to attempt to install a CM Build and then posting here in the AT&T forums is at this time a pointless effort.
Using the search feature either ein Goolge or in the forums will provide all the answers you need.
Thank you,

Well, one can only hope! :laugh::laugh:
In defense of the OP, it's pretty confusing that there's the Unified Development subforum which shows up under the AT&T section... I've been wondering why there's all these threads in a subforum to AT&T talking about installing all these roms that I know shouldn't work. I figured it was just something more involved than I'm comfortable with so I've ignored it. It seems like until the AT&T BL is unlocked that we shouldn't even have the Unified section linked here.
How to know if my s5a has unlocked BL?

You have to unlock it. If you have an AT&T device it's locked.
This is the reason I'm using my upgrade to get a Nexus 6.

hate to burst your bubble but if you get the nexus 6 from AT&T it will also have a locked bootloader it is up in the air on whether or not it will be able to be unlocked. the only safe way to gaurentee an unlocked bootloader is to buy the nexus 6 unbranded direct from google.

Sending this on an unlocked nexus 6 from At&t. Not sure where u got that information but it's false. Upgraded from the S5 myself, no more locked down phones for me again.

im merely pointing out that everything i have read has pointed to it being locked (not that it cant be unlocked mind you) AT&T rarely sends devices with the bootloader unlocked whether or not you can unlock them is a different story. i merely stated that "From what i had read" sorry for the confusion
EDIT: in fact here is the thread stating it comes from AT&T locked but is unlockable
bl
and if at&t will want they can unlock BL right? or is there any way to ask them bl unlock?

They could unlock it yes, but they won't, they won't do it upon request either as far as I know.
