hello, i bought a code yesterday, but i have just received it...
The problem i have is.... the first time i inserted the sim, it asked for the code... but i did not have it... but now it doesnt show the code box when i put the sim on....
I have tried #073887*, but it only says i have no network service.... instead of just sending me the code box...

One other thing is that the Atrix HD seems a bit more sensitive in terms of connection to older sims. For me, I had to get a new sim from my carrier. It could not get a reliable connection to the old sim I had.

Hey everyone,
I recently bought a HD2 for flashing fun, then I realized it was locked to one of the telcos that I don't use.
I just wondered if an app exists like on some other phones to remove the sim lock. Or flashing a file or debranded rom will do it.
Thanks so much

I don't believe there is a program or app that you can use you to SIM unlock your device.
You need a IMEI code to unlock it. Search the internet for a company that does it and compare prices, usually costs between $10 -$25
I used this company over a year ago to unlock a AT&T phone that I bought so I could switch it to TMobile, which was the service that I had.
They sell you the IMEI unlock code and then you insert the new carriers SIM card or one from an already activated device, restart the phone and enter the IMEI code. The new service has to be a GSM network for it to work. You might have to setup your APN to get internet working properly.
This is the company that I used and this is the link for the HD2.

Here's another one that does it.

Is there any way to check if my phone is locked to my carrier without removing the SIM ?
You can try dialing *#7465625# but I don't think that works any more. The only other way is to remove the SIM and stick in a SIM from another carrier.
More to the point is there as of yet a free method of unlocking to all networks as I've already paid €20 to get it unlocked to all networks, my phone is in for repairs and getting it back next week and I'd sooner not have to again.
I've been informed I'm getting a new handset hence I'll need to again get it unlocked (assuming the new phone is locked)

Hello there.
I bought a Motorola Atrix HD with the purpose of using it in Tmobile with Tzones. The thing is that ive been trying to buy the unlock code and no luck so far. Its been 10 unlock services sellers and every one of them tell me that my Imei have been rejected or not working ? they refund the money and thats it, nobody tell me nothing.....
Anything of this had happen to anyone here ?
That mean is another scrap phone i bought ?
thx
Sorry didn't have this issue. The unlock code took a bit longer to get on this phone than any other, but they sent it to me within 7 days.
I used unlockunit
Sim Network Unlock
My Atrix HD doesn't seem to want to read my sim card. It SHOULD ask me to input a sim network unlock code, but it doesn't. Is there a way to force that prompt? I ask this as I wait for a unlock code from an unlocker site.

the only way i know is turning off your phone, insert the other provider sim (it needs to be already activated/working) then turn it on and you will see the prompt
Sometimes phones sold are stolen and reported then there imei numbers are bad or frozen the original owner needs to reclaim it if that's the case in order for the imei to be unlocked

You don't need to pay. If you are lff-contract, then you can call AT&T and they will give you an unlock code, free of charge. I have done it on multiple phones.

Hello everyone,
Although I found lots of similar posts, I couldn't find solution for problem I have. Last year I bought HTC Raider (originaly on Rogers) on e-bay. Phone was unlocked, my SIM card (provider is Tele2 Croatia) worked perfectly in it. January 10th this year I've changed provider to T-mobile Croatia and when I tried to use their SIM card - my phone is constantly rebooting. It is not rooted or using custom ROM or anything like that. I've tried to contact HTC services in Croatia but their answer is that they cannot help me because HTC Raider is not sold in Europe. I am really stuck here, so you guys are my last hope. I am willing to donate money to anyone who can give me solution which works.
Thanks.
If you take out the sim card (or use the old sim card) and turn the phone on, does it work normally? If so, i'm more confused. Otherwise, your boot partition might have gotten messed up somehow, in which case you would either want to re-flash the boot.IMG from the stock ROM, or use htc's RUU (try that first).

If I use old sim card everything is fine. Meanwhile, I did S-off, root and put Holics ROM, but same thing happens. What I have noticed, when old sim card is inside, preferred network is set on GSM/WDCMA/LTE, somehow I managed to open phone info with T-mobile sim inserted and preferred network was set to CDMA + LTE/EvDo Auto. I couldn't change that manually because there is not enough time between resets.

OK... You somehow have a radio issue... Your Sim card seems to think its for a different style phone...
Methinks you should ask T-Mobile why your Sim card is doing that...
This phone is for GSM networks...
You may have to tell them that...

Ok, today I went to T-mobile and told them that. Their explanation was that problem is in the phone, not in SIM card. They said other providers in Croatia don't have 4g network and they do. Essentially they said there is nothing they can do about it. My last option is to ask is it possible to remove CDMA from phone completely by deleting files or something like that?

OK, problem is solved. What I did:
Installed wahjee desensed rom - phone was still rebooting with t-mobile sim
I was ready to give up so I did oem lock and installed stock rom through sd card so I can sell it...
Then I decided to try just once more and inserted t-mobile sim... And voila! It works... Perfectly. No reboots any more... Now I'm really confused... But I don't care... As long as it works )

Huh! Well good for you! If you ever install another rom on there, let us know if the same thing happens again (or of it doesn't).

I bought my Nexus 6 outright not far off 2 years ago now but now I have a 6p on the way.......
I got a new sim card with a different network [4g] in preparation and attempted to put it in to the 6 while I wait for my 6p.....
now as I bought it outwith a contract it was naturally unlocked to any network.....
the sim didnt work and further tests have proven that no sim will work, even from the same carrier I am using it with now......only my sim works.....
how is this possible?
what can be done to fix it....?
I have flashed stock and performed factory resets also.....
I am going to try and flash the first 6.0 build on it to see if that helps.....
do phones lock themselves? Is it possible.....
Att is the only one I know of that puts a sim lock on the device. You have to ask for the unlock code as I understand it.
I used to use sim lock all of the time until I got Google Fi. It doesn't support it.
