From what I read cellunlocker.net is the most recommended but they say it may take up to 3 weeks to unlock a Samsung device. Anyone know of another good service as an alternative?
I unlocked a note 4 att with them 2 weeks ago and took about 8 hours only.

Depends on your account standing just call tmobile and ask.

bought my tmobile n4 to use with att almost 4 weeks ago. tmobile wouldnt unlock it because i dont have an account with them. I tried some ebay seller ebay on christmas day and waited a week and asked for a refund because they couldnt find the imei. So i then tried cellunlocker and waited 6 days, didnt get a code as a problem with the samsung servers delayed it and the code wasnt even proccesed. got a refund and tried once again and 4 days later i didnt get the code so finally i asked for a refund a second time on cellunlocker and tried imei-unlocker.com last night and got the unlock this morning. took like 12 hours but i didnt have to wait more than a day while cellunlocker.net had me wait more than 2 weeks and still didnt process my order.

btw the way cellunlocker was 29.99 and imei-unlocker was 31.00 , cellunlocker does have good communication but just didnt do it for me this time ( have unlocked multiple phones with them)
It was Samsung that caused the delays.. Every service had the same problems until Sunday/Mondayish when they came back online. cellunlocker.net cellphoneunlock.net and getunlocked.com are all good services. The first 2 are about $30 & getunlocked is 35

Try imei-unlocker or getunlocked. I got my code from imei-locker this Monday. These both sites provide you regular updates
I used a local store called mobilephoneguy.com (they have a Web site too, though I think you have to call them if not local? Phone number is on the site)
They charged me $30 and I got my code! I thought it was a good deal.

Was this recently? Did he just go online and order it? There's an add on Craigslist in my area that says he hooks it up to a computer for 20 minutes and it generates a code. Said it worked for the note 4. Didn't know any of that worked for newer phones...

I just bought one through imei-unlocker.com. Do either of you remember what the status stages are? Up at the top of my order it says "submitted" and the bottom says "result: processing"
The estimated wait for them went from up to 48 hours to now 1-4 days. I'm really eager to get this code. I've had the phone now for a week and the guy I bought it from was trying to get it through T-Mobile, but either T-Mobile is taking forever or he's stringing me along (not sure why he would do that).

Yes I know. I first ordered at cellunlocker and expected to get it in 5hrs which was given as the estimated delivery time. After waiting for 48 hours, I cancelled it and then ordered at imei unlocker where they gave me a EDT of 12-24 hours. Waited for 2 days and still didn't receive my code. Then saw an update on site that Samsung orders are delayed over the weekend till Monday. On Monday early morning i saw an update that Samsung codes have started to come in. And 6 hours later I got a mail with my code. Maybe I was lucky. But this waiting sucks seriously.

dude to be honest i didnt even check the status. i waited 3 weeks with other various places so i didnt even check the page since i was expecting it to not be available in less than a few days lol. all i did was enjoy my day, went to bed and woke up next morning to an email with the unlock code.

Lol. I'm sure it was a nice surprise to get it early. I seem to always have crap luck with things, so of the first time I ever need an unlock code is when there's a huge delay. I wanted to order last week, but I kept thinking I would order it and the guy I bought it from would end up sending it to me that day.... Won't be surprised if it still happens.

Well this is frustrating. I ordered a moto x (tmobile) on 11/15, and was promised a delivery date of 11/21, but nothing showed up today. Not even a shipment email. So I chatted with moto support, and they told me that my order was delayed and would only arrive on the 2nd of December! I asked for a reason, and obviously, they didn't have one. The lady I chatted with first was extremely rude for some reason, so I just ended that one and started another. Now this guy says that all orders are delayed because of Thanksgiving. Really? Thanksgiving is two weeks after I ordered. Nice try. Anyway, this guy tells me that because of that, the phone hasn't started being assembled and gave the same Dec. 2nd arrival date. I tried to cancel, because I really can't wait that long without a phone (returned my nexus 5 because it had too many issues), but of course, I couldn't. And they already charged my credit card for the full amount.
Has anyone else had this type of experience with moto?
Ordered mine on the 11th. Received on the 14th or 15th. Perhaps yours somehow got held up on their end for whatever reason.

It should only be a hold on your card... It should disappear after a few days, depending on the card issuer it may take up to 2 weeks.
On your card statement does it say hold in the details?

No that's why I'm complaining. It's a charge not a hold like what google play does. I can't use that money anymore.
Did you get a mail says "We are assembling it"? Or that means "We'll arrange it"?
Because I ordered one on 11/20 and must get it before 12/8.
hah! blaming a holiday that hasn't even happened yet. what a joke. anyway, these guys on the low level support don't know ****. your phone will arrive well before 12/2.

If I had paid for shipping, I would have demanded that they refund that. But since it was "Free", I guess I have nothing to complain about
Your phone should come long before 12/2. I placed my order on the 18th, and my phone came today. They told me that Verizon put a hold on my order for some reason, and I called Motorola, the rep put me on hold and called Verizon. Came back on and said everything was good to go, and I got my phone the next day.

Still, why is everyone else getting their phones in 3-4 days? Mine has been 7 now, and still nothing. They probably don't make enough tmobile ones or something.
As an update, someone from moto contacted me and said my order was delivered on Tuesday in New York. Heh? First off, I live in CA, and second, they just gave me someone elses order number with their address. I sure hope they didn't do that with me! This is getting ridiculous now.
Hi XXXXXX,
Good day!
We would like to inform you that your Moto X phone under order # 00177220 (NOT MY ORDER NUMBER) was already shipped under Fed Ex tracking number 583089435700. It was delivered to XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, NY, 11213. (THEY JUST GAVE ME SOME RANDOM PERSON'S ADDRESS!!)
Actual delivery :
Tues 19/11/2013
Thank you.

I ordered the T-Mobile one the day moto maker opened for all carriers and got in 2 days. Almost everyone from the T-Mobile got within 2 or 3 days. May be just bad luck?
Go to Google+ and contact Matt Jones. He is Motorola support manager and will let you know what's going on.

hello all. just wanted to give a heads on some information that i didnt know and may be valuable to someone else that didnt know. today i talked to at&t about upgrading my galaxy s5 with using an upgrade from another line on my account. the lady i talked to told me i didnt have to do that because i was eligible to upgrade my phone by taking in my current gs5 to the local store and upgrading it for a new phone. i have the 12 month upgrade plan. i asked her if that was possible since i have only been paying on my gs5 for 7 months now. i got the gs5 on release day. she told me that i am eligible to upgrade with an at&t next plan as long as i have paid at least 4 months on the monthly installment and my phone is in good condition. i didnt know you could even do that. i thought i had to wait til the 12 months was up then take my phone back to them to get a new phone. i asked her again, is she sure its after 4 months and not the 12 months that my contract said? she said yes she is sure. she said they will just take my phone and use it as a trade in to pay off my remaining installments and allow me to upgrade with a new phone and just continue my at&t next plan. i just had to have at least 4 payments on the phone paid.
i dont know if this is public knowledge, i just wanted to share it. i am interested in the note 4. maybe this info will help out someone else that got their gs5 on release day with at&t next plan and want the note 4 like me.

What do you pay $30 a month? You could instead get a OnePlus One every 12 months for the same price and have a completely unlocked phone. Just saying and you can sell your old one instead of having to hand it over to AT&T.
Well this is awesome. I take it iPhone 5s users can also upgrade to a 6 or 6+. My teenage daughter will flip lol. Although Idk if I want to purchase a phone that freaking bends. As for the one plus one. I read it doesn't have expandable storage which is a "phone killer" to me, and I don't think that I want the note 4, since it's going to come with a locked bootloader like the S5. Does anyone know of another reasonable phone that can have pure Android /Cm variants on it that wouldn't be a downgrade to my S5?

the new moto x 2014 is close in regards to specs to the s5 and you will always have the latest android update with motorola and pretty much a vanilla android experience. but i dont know if the moto x 2014 at&t version doesnt allow you to unlock the bootloader. i know motorola does unlock bootloaders on their site. but some carriers they wont do it for. you could always wait for the nexus 6 but that has a 5.9 inch screen. dont know if that would turn you off. there's talk of a smaller variant of it coming out but that's just a rumor right now. the chinese phones come with unlocked bootloaders. like the xioami mi3 and mi4.
you could get your daughter the iphone 6 4.7 inch version. those are not bending and would be a big screen upgrade to the 5s.

i've read that before. but if i am indeed able to upgrade my phone every 4 months, is that really a rip off? i could see the subsidy i pay in the contract as an extra charge for being allowed to upgrade so frequently.

Sheeple? You quoted an article from 15 months ago. When the article was written, it was accurate. However, since then, at&t released their value plans. If you have the value plan, you save $25/month if you use at&t next to pay full price for the phone. So, there actually is a benefit.
Depending on how often you want a new phone, it may or may not be a good deal.
Not trying to tell anyone what to do, Just saying that people should do their own research, and not just rely on old articles that someone posts.

the 4 month policy of having at least 4 monthly installments paid is 100% true. they changed this policy 2 months ago to be more competeitive with other carriers upgrade policies. as long as you've paid 4 installments on your phone you can bring in your phone every 4 months and upgrade to a new one as long as the phone is in good condition. they use the trade in to wipe out your remaining installments and start you on a new one. so basically you can upgrade every 4 months now with at&t. that's a pretty awesome deal if you're into always having new phones a couple times a year. that is better than t-mobiles every 6 months. they also reimburse you $25/line to take away the normal subsidy that the regular 2yr contracts have. so you arent paying an extra subsidy for having an at&t next plan.
just wanted to give a heads up to let everyone know this news is indeed true.
Lmao
Not sure which country your in where this is "indeed true" but I have just confirmed this is not true in North america. No 4 month trade in applies to any next plan.

i live in michigan. and since i have already done this with my pre-order of the note 4, you're trying to prove me wrong is invalid. call 611 on your phone. you have to already be on an at&t next plan. talk to the sales/upgrade department. tell them you'd like to trade in your current phone that's currently on an at&t next plan. they will check to make sure you've already made 4 payments on your current phone. then you will be eligible. i've confirmed it multiple times with at&t customer support and also confirmed it with my local at&t store.

again. call 611 on your phone. talk to the sales/upgrade department. tell them you want to trade in your phone for a new one. they will check to make sure you made 4 payments. then come back on here to change your confirmation. using twitter as confirmation is funny. talk to an actual person.

I'll just go into the retail store. Believe me, I want you to be right (and I do believe you) because I am so sick of my S5 and this p.o.s. locked bootloader.. ugh..
@Jaredw18
well now i look like an asshole. :/ i talked to 2 diff customer service ppl and they told me the info was wrong. the info i had got that made me make this post was even in my account notes. but the 2 ppl i just talked to said that they were wrong that i still had to finish the installments for the 12 months before i can upgrade. i really wish all their reps were on the same page and gave the same info. i'm sorry and i didnt mean to lead anyone wrong.

All good friend.
:silly:
You have no idea how bad I wish you were right.. That 2nd gen Moto X is looking pretty good to me right now. Hey, at least I have a 3rd (2 year) contract line that's available for an upgrade. Maybe I'll be able to sell this mint cond. S5 to someone who isn't worried about development as much as I am.

Well this is awesome. I take it iPhone 5s users can also upgrade to a 6 or 6+. My teenage daughter will flip lol. Although Idk if I want to purchase a phone that freaking bends. As for the one plus one. I read it doesn't have expandable storage which is a "phone killer" to me, and I don't think that I want the note 4, since it's going to come with a locked bootloader like the S5. Does anyone know of another reasonable phone that can have pure Android /Cm variants on it that wouldn't be a downgrade to my S5?

2nd gen Moto X has basically the same performance specs as the S5. Without all the crapware that comes with touchwiz. This phone has so much potential hardware wise.. What a waste of a great device. Thanks for screwing up another good phone att..

Darn not real guess I'll just wait til the spring then LOL. I haven't owned a Motorola since my first Android w/ T-mobile the Motorola Cliq LOL I got it to run CM7. Does this one have a micro SD slot? I didn't see it listed in the specs. I stream my music over B/T in my car, so without expandable storage, it's no good for me... be just like buying an iphone (OK maybe not as bad as buying an iphone LOL) Plus I wish they'd have lime green instead of turquoise.
ATT.....sucks...
I'd jump...but business plan has me tied down tight...
Guess I'll start petitions at work to change....g
I wanted to believe this was true also so I called 611 last night to confirm. The rep told me it was not but did tell me something interesting. He said that after 2 consecutive payments, you have the option to pay the rest of your installments to meet the 12 or 18 months upfront and you can upgrade earlier. So if you signed up for the 12 month, after 2 payments, you can pay the remaining 10 month installments all at once and immediately turn in the device and upgrade. Not as great but still an option I guess.
@ILuvRice- Why would you have to pay it off and return the phone. Doesn't sound right to me. Once it's paid, it's yours, correct?
If you used T-Mobile Jump! for your upgrade, did you have the option to select the free item being offered?
1 year of NetFlix
256 GB SD Card
Gear 2
There was no option provided in the ordering process.

I didn't use Jump but I did order the phone online.... I called customer service before hand to ask such question and was told that after I receive the phone I use a number off the box or receipt to claim gift.... At that time I can choose what I want...

I can't answer that.... I clicked the upgrade part so that's all I know.... Like I said I called Customer service before hand and it seems as though if you do it by phone you can say what gift you want but... they now implement a $20.00 "assistance fee" for doing it by phone....
I politely told the lady I don't want to pay the $20.00 and proceeded to do the transaction online... She was very helpful though and answered everything I asked so I do appreciate that...
You have to go to the Samsung promotions site when you have phone and receipt in hand to place your order.
SD card and Fit 2 will take up to 12 weeks for delivery.
Netflix is a digital code.
https://promos.samsungpromotions.com/galaxyoffer/
You need IMEI, MAC address and receipt from the device.
---------- Post added at 09:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------
Oh yeah, and the promotion for the Fit 2 and SD card is limited to the first 250K then they substitute. . .
So when you get it, hop to it.

I also used JUMP via Web to place my preorder. There was no option for me to choose either, Hopefully there still Gear fit 2 available for me to redeem my gift.
I guess this must be the first time you guys have gotten any perks like this. ITs been this way for quite some time that you basically upload a copy of your invoice and use your IMEI number to process your order for samsung promotions. Also dont get too crazy thinking it may come right away generally it takes 4-6 weeks to receive promotional gifts
So far I have gotten netflix, wireless chargers, gift cards and gear vr. They will send it so dont get too nervous if you feel like you been waiting a while.
I just ordered the phone on jump on demand and the guy told me i wasnt gonna be eligible to receive the sd card or gear or netflix promotion with it. It was only available if i got it as a eip or bought full price. Sucks but still got it anyways.lol

With jump on demand you can only do it over the phone or in store upgrade. No online upgrade. For pre order just call tmobile and when it asks you to say what you are calling for just say representative. Tell them you want a jump on demand upgrade and to preorder a phone. And whenever you get the new phone just go to a tmobile store and return the old one. Really quick. Make sure you keeo the charger, they wont ask for it.
If the phone is already out then just go to any store and they will trade it for you. Also pretty fast. The cool thing is that you dont have to put any money down for any phone with jump on demand.
The only reason I didn't order it was because they had a 70 down plus tax on jump on demand. I kept asking if that was right because it didn't sound right. Guess they did have a money down thing for jod on the note 7 but got rid of it because people were complaining. Sucks because I would've ordered it last week. But it's cool I guess. I'll just order it today

I went ahead and paid the $70, then got a text two days later from T-Mobile stating that I could do it for no money down, all I had to do was call back in and they would change it for me and my monthly amount would go from $33.50 to $37.50. I went ahead and just left it alone as I didn't want to risk losing my place in the shipping line.

Does that screen protector really look like that out of the box? I would like something like that because most of the protectors for this phone have a huge cutout at the top for all the sensors. Also are the edges rounded? Mind seem a little sharp. Thanks.

My T-Mobile model is on the way! Before ordering one I spoke to a T-Mobile employee who said all I have to do is call T-Mobile and request unlock codes and I would get them for free. I always thought you had to pay to get them from a carrier.

If you bought it outright. Yes. But it's hard to get there. Best way to do it would be calling and explaining the whole situation your in. They should be able to push the unlock to the app. There's usually a 40 day waiting period you have to wait. But I've heard stories about people doing what your doing and being able to request the unlock. I've also heard they tell people to use it on prepaid for 40 days and then being able to unlock it. Its about a 75/25 chance. Just call untill you get the right people. How did you order the device without an account

There's your answer lol
There's a limit per year. I think it's two. Generally I EIP the device and if I like it I'll pay it off. If I don't then I will jump it(I am on the original jump). Sometimes I will just buy outright like I did with the Note 7.
Be careful buying it because it's cheap. That person could do the BOGO get his device unlocked and switch carriers and leave the bill hanging. At that point you are SOL trying to get it unlocked.

I got my t-mobile model in today and have spent about 20 minutes on the phone with customer service trying to get it unlocked. The unlock device app was the first thing I tried and that did not work. I messaged the seller asking for him to contact t-mobile but I'm not expecting much to happen with that.
I'm about to go to the t-mobile store and speak with the employee who told me all I'd have to do is call and submit my imei and then I'd be unlocked. Part of me knew that was too good to be true but I was hopeful. If they can't figure it out in store I'm going to give the cell unlocker site a try.
If none of that works I will be selling it.

Has happened to me many times with T-Mobile. If you get on phone with the unlocking department just talk their ear off for an hour. Say the same things over and over and dont let them get off the phone. Be polite and just ask over and over and keep saying the same things like a robot, calmly. They will eventually either commit suicide right there on the spot or just unlock it. They have the power to unlock any phone at any time so dont believe their stories.
Does anyone actually know how to get the pre order items? I pre ordered mine launch day through Bell, I just got it today and I'm super confused. I've spoke with Bell multiple times and they have no idea.
First call they told me I just bring my proof of purchase to any bell reseller and get the headphones and smarttag in hand at the store
BestBuy then told me I'm suppose to get a voucher from Bell and give that to Samsung online, and they are send directly from Samsung.
Bell then told me that I gotta wait for the phone to arrive, and use the Samsung Members app once I have the phone, and it will know it's an S21 Ultra and prompt me for the voucher, and then I can redeem it with Samsung to have them sent to me.
I now have the phone, registered with Samsung on my account, Samsung Members app installed, no prompt, no messages, no frums to fill out, nothing.
I'm now waiting for the new Bell SIM to activate so I can't call Bell back to ask why there's nothing on the app and what I should do, so, figured I would check here since I have time to kill while I wait for the activation to take place on my SIM
How do I redeem this preorder bundle? Has anyone in Canada actually got the headphones and smart tag doing a pre order through a carrier? Like, What? How does multiple people from the carrier itself not even know how to redeem their own offer?
UPDATE:
Talked to Bell again because the lady I spoke with prior, activated my new SIM on my brother's number (family account), so now I gotta wait for the new 5G SIM to come in the mail lol. The guy I spoke with this time I asked the same question, how do I get the headphones, and was super chill, told me straight up and just said, I'm going to be blunt here, we have no idea how to get them, the deal is offered with Samsung and all we know is Samsung is giving them out to people who bought from Samsung first, and once you can no longer preorder from Samsung, the carriers will get what's left of the bundles as a free for all for whoever can redeem the voucher first.
So directly from a Bell Employee, the preorder bundles are a scam if you bought through a carrier, Samsung is offering the deal through their store only until the preorder ends and then the chance of getting the preorder bundle when the preorders close is pure chance.
May the odds be ever in your favor..
I bought through Rogers and the attached came in the box.

Okay I didn't get that from Bell haha, I miss Rogers, we don't have that here anymore. It's only Bell, Telus, and a local company that took over for Rogers but you can't get every phone through them and their customer service is terrible and not 24/7.
EDIT:
I flashed the Official Samsung Unlocked Firmware on the SM-G998W, and when I opened the Samsung Members app, I was prompted for the E-Voucher and redeemed it. So this issue is with the Bell Firmware.
Bell also lied and told me I would get the matching colour the phone, but only the Black ones are for the promo.
Bell really became shady as hell recently. Legit false advertising from their reps cause I got the silver phone so I could get the silver headphones, straight up lied to me lol.
I got the pre order stuff from Bell.
Says on Bells website to get it from the Members app.
Went into Members app on phone, scroll down to benefit section. There is a small photo showing pre order e-voucher. Click that, brings up your code, copy to clip board. You then click the link to go to the store to use voucher.
First few times I did it, it showed the items out of stock. Tried it an hour or so later, no problem, added to card, put in the e-voucher code and balance is zero. Fill out shipping details and poof your good.
Got mine through Telus and it's exactly what Rosco said, go into your Samsung Members app, look for offers and there will be a coupon.
Go to Samsung.com and add the two items, drop the coupon code in at checkout and voila, order placed.
now if they would just ship them lol. Been saying "preparing dispatch" since Saturday.

That is OK as, in theory, the coupon which came with my Rogers phone said delivery from 6-8 weeks from the date of redemption. I am just hoping that shipment will be done this week some time. A week before I ordered a wireless charger from Samsung and it was shipped on the first business day (a Monday) from somewhere in Ontario via Purolator Express and was delivered before noon on Tuesday in Montreal, despite stating "standard shipping". I am hoping that we will get an advice of shipment close to 5 pm today.

Thanks for the heads-up. However looking at mine (Is yours the same?) I too see the "Processing" but it is no longer "Preparing despatch". This is almost retrograde as preparing despatch to me would be packing the items, preparing waybill etc. Processing sounds like some earlier step.

I know it is bad form to reply to your own post but obviously I was clueless as to Samsung's shipping procedures. Looking at the Rogers' website, it appears they are still offering the promotion until the end of February. It would appear that sales are hardly off the wall. That leads me to believe that, as they advised on the promotion, this may take weeks before the items are shipped. This makes sense from a logistical point of view. People have 2 weeks to return their phones. How do they handle the situation of people receiving the bonus items and returning the phone? One would think relatively easy but you have two parties involved here, Rogers and Samsung and communication may be a bit broken. So they decide they will let a good time pass and it will be clear who kept their phones and who returned them.
sometimes you just end up with the free item. That has happened to me in the past when I returned a pixel to google. I still got the preorder bonus weeks later.
I preordered through samsung which I can't fully recommend doing if you are paying in installments as they terms mention a potential monthly fee for going that route. I ended up getting it outright but the buds and tag came with the device. When I got the note 20 the preorder process was a bit broken (got through telus) they told me I had to go into the store, the store told me I had to order online.
Hopefully your stuff shows up soon.

Oh yes. Not sure to whom that was addressed. From the members app I pasted the coupon into the store and everything went normally. This was the week before last. It has, however, been stuck on preparing dispatch for myself and everybody else who purchased this phone through a Canadian carrier. I was just wondering when they will actually ship.
Yeah I'm still waiting, still says preparing dispatch
Just a follow up, hasnt changed. I did a live chat to inquire...may be waiting some time if true lol
We have requested for the product to be shipped. Right now it's in the preparation stage.
However, shipment of the Samsung Galaxy S21 Series 5G bonus is expected to take between 6 to 8 weeks from the date that you redeem your E-Voucher on samsung.com/ca.

Thanks for this, although not the best news.
Well, they're dispatched! I can't believe they actually shipped!
