Change / flash an ROM not desimlock the phone.
Use a specialized service, you can find tons on Internet.

Hi Dave.
I suggest you to open a ticket in at&t website and request an unlock code.

PUK Required

I had my Lumia 635 unlocked using a 3rd party company. After the code was accepted the screen now shows "PUK required". I am overseas and I'm trying to use it with a foreign cellphone provider. Do I have to call AT&T to get the code? I thought PUK is SIM related? I don't have an account with AT&T nor their SIM.
Please advise. Thanks

PUK is a code required by your SIM card. Probably you use a prepaid one and it is not unusual such a card requests a PUK each time your phone wakes up or restarts. It probably has an option to cancel these requests, refer to card''s instructions or contact card provider's customer service for assistance. Use another SIM to confirm a PUK is not requested by it.

Hello Folks,
I need help! can anyone plz guide me on how to unlock HTC Imagio for AT&T or anyother GSM network?
P.S- Im not verizon customer
If you are a Verizon customer just call global support and tell them you are going overseas or out of the country and need to unlock your SIM. They will give you a code to enter. Go to settings, all settings, security, enter the code then you can use any SIM from any provider.
It is really that simple.
Hmmm CDMA phone will work in GSM network?
EDIT: I guess it does! Thats neat...
The Imagio is a "Global Phone" meaning it has both a SIM and does both CDMA and GSM. I have already used mine in Lebanon by using a local provider's SIM lent to me by a relative. Because of the way over-hyped and over-rated Droid the Imagio seems to have been passed by, but it truly is an incredible device.

I would say you are out of luck. You can try the pay service listed below, but most are dubious at best. Why would you have a Verizon phone but not be a Verizon customer? Unless you purchased it unlocked, it would be pretty useless.
You could try putting a SIM card from another carrier in it and see if it works.

I have a Nokia Lumia 520 with Vodafone Germany Sim Lock. Someone knows how to unlock it?- a tutorial. Or knows a Unlock Service?
Thx
If you're in a region that the locking carrier operates in, you may be able to just take the phone to them, explain the situation, and get it unlocked. If not, you could try asking Nokia directly. Beyond that, the unlock codes usually leak pretty quickly, and even the really sketchy-looking online unlock services have been surprisingly honest in my experience, but the 520 may be too new for them.
hey. have you managed to unlock it? or can anyone tell how to do it? the operators asks for more than 50 euros to unlock it...
SIM Unlock Lumia 520
same problem here guys,
a friend of my brought from US a Nokia Lumia 520, as my request. I´m in Brazil, by the way.
But It came SIM Unlocked from AT&T. The phone works well, the only thing that it does not is calls and sms. But the rest is fine.
I contact AT&T but they wont give me the PIN number to unlock. (tried several times)
So I need to find some way to do that. Either getting the PIN number, or even formatting the cell, to a "pure" WP8 (as should be an original unlocked device) - installing the original WP8.
About the warranty, I dont care. I´m Brazil and will never get acess trough, if i need it.
I really apreciate if someone can give me a help here.
Cheers!

Well guys,
I was able to format my Nokia Lumia 520, using the Nokia Care Suíte.
I downloaded the original firmware, with no Crapware from AT&T and using the Nokia Care Suite I completed the formatting.
The phone is working as it should be. Even the AT&T welcome screen has gone. But, it still does ask for the PIN Number when I put a SIM card from my brazilian carrier.
So, NO, formatting the Nokia Lumia 520 WON´T unlock your PIN Number, as I was hoping.
I need some way to get this code, if anyone could help me, I really apreciate.
Cheers

After 24 months since delivery you can get the code for free:

You may tell them you going to go somewhere for business trip and wish to use the phone. Request them to unlock the phone for you. Try call to AT&T.

Unlocking the phone for use with GSM Sim without Sprint service is not possible as Moto only releases the codes to the specific carrier and Sprint will not give it to you.
If you do get it unlocked, it will not work in the US on a GSM network ie: T-Mobile or ATT. They're hardware restricted from working on local GSM networks p/fca allowances. I have seen a few devices like some black Berry's work locally after being unlocked but they are few and far between.

Hello there,
I got nokia lumia 635 At&T and I want to be able to use it on GSM network.
Will Flashing the phone help ?
or it is only by unlocking ?
and is there a way to unlock for free or I just should pay for some company and if so , which is the cheapest company out there ?
Thanks in Advance !
Kind Regards,
Zaza .
Hello, if you want to use this phone with another carrier you have to unlock it ! Contact ATT if you are an ATT consumer for the unlocking code. If you are not an ATT consumer you will have to buy an unlocking code. Search on ebay or Internet to find someone who can provide you this code.
Unbranding will help you to get ride od ATT's firmware and software that's all you can have with another firmware. Your phone will not be unlocked for using it with another GSM SIM.
Actually AT&T unlocked my GoPhone variant for free and I am not an AT&T customer. All they required were a copy of my receipt and the devices IMEI. Took 2 days to receive the code but at least it was FREE!!! This is a great little device and for the sale price it was well worth it!!! Unfortunately no success on unbranding due to platform security. So far only able to flash from prepaid variant to postpaid variant but since the device isn't compatible with my Verizon service anyways wasn't really worried about it. For $40, it keeps my 6 year old off my Ativ Odyssey and it's another device to play with and explopre for exploits. Worth it!!!

How did you input your receipt on that site? Did you buy the gophone? It says right on that site that gophone must be active for 6 months first, and they also told me that on the phone. How did you do it exactly, and are you in the united states?
