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 suggest getting the unlock codes from Verizon first. Some unlock code have been changed by Verizon and cannot be obtained by third-party vendors.

I got my code on Ebay from UnlockFusion, it's only 4.05USD now and worked flawlessly.
Then use instructions and files in this; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406812 to use the XT883 (chinese D3) radio and build.prop to unlock US GSM carriers.

Unlock?

Is there a way to unlock my cappy that isn't going to cost me? I don't have a computer and I tried vibrant unlock and it didn't work. I dropped my note 2 and the screen is FUBAR. So I was going to use my cappy until I get the 175 together to submit a claim on the phone insurance with T-Mobile. I have a good sim to use just can't find my unlock code.

You still have to pay for the unlock code. I cannot afford it as of now with having to save to pay for a new note 2. Also not available from the play store in my country so it says.

The op States that it charges what he thinks is a fair price. When I run the app it says unable to read nv data.

If you read the "download" section in the linked OP again it might clear it up for you.......The nv data thing is normal. Just do what it says.....backup efs (then it can read nv) then unlock twice. Once for partial unlock twice to fully unlock.
Once it is unlocked and your thinking, wow this was actually really easy, consider a donation to the author for making it so.....even if it isn't until after that note2 is paid for

If you cannot access it from the Play Store would you like me to upload the apk for you to just download and install that way? You shouldn't have to pay to unlock your device, at least with all the options on the captivate. Another user requested the same check his thread in the General section, m1batt1 also posted another, longer but still effective, way to unlock if the app doesn't work.

So it worked. I am now using my cappy in T-Mobile. Thanks for that. My note 2 uses a micro sim and the cappy takes a regular sim. I used my old straight talk that's no good anymore because I ported my number for it over to T-Mobile and cut out a guide for the micro sim. Is there a better way or is that about it?

Glad to hear it worked for you
If the sim is working I'd say your all set....You can purchase an adapter I believe but I think your mod will be fine.
I just read sim unlocking is illegal since January 23rd? Can they tell when it was done?

Nope, this is a common misconception, and one the mobile phone companies (unsurprisingly) aren't keen to dispel. The confusion arises because unlocking and unblocking are often mixed up, yet mean different things.
Unlocking is totally legal. It just means making the phone work with any Sim card.
Unblocking is illegal. This is the practice of making a phone work again after it's been blocked by the networks, usually as a result of its being reported lost or stolen. Unsurprisingly, It is thoroughly illegal and should not be attempted.
If you are in a contract and got the phone from them at a discount with it then maybe....But then why would you be unlocking it.

hmm people still sell these "illegal"? codes, and what if you bought your phone used off ebay for example. There goes any resale value and in turn less interest in a contract phone.
If your concerned about it, you should lock your phone, what else can I say.:good:
Unnecessary. I also found out that there are at least 3 bills in congress to address that specifically. They also cannot tell when it was done. Nor do they much care.

[Q] help unlocking at&t galaxy note 3 SM-N900A N900AUCUBMJ5

Already gave my money away to one of those phone unlock websites (scam). With no results.
Any help on taking me to a thread (if there is one for my phone model) or explain me step by step (yes I'm new to Android lol) I will be deeply grateful.....
What site?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
the unlock code depot
Do they not offer a refund if it doesn't work?
Cellunlocker.net is reliable.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I checked reviews on their website and a lot of people has been ripped off.
They also used other couple names, Unlock-Code-Warehouse.com, Unlock-Code-World.com, TheUnlockDepot.com
Well unfortunately, there is no way to do it yourself without MI9 or earlier firmware. You will either have to contact AT&T or buy it from a legit seller.
