Network Unlock - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

I have a SM-G925A that I purchased unlocked. I am using it with a Straight Talk sim with no problems. However, I am now trying to use a LIME sim and it is saying "SIM Network Unlock Pin". I contacted AT&T and received the unlock code but it is not working.
Is there a way for me to Network Unlock my phone without the need of the unlock code? Like perhaps with a USB?
My phone is not rooted and it is on Android 5.1.1. G925AUCU3BOI2 factory.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks

Other networks

I have a G1 and it is locked to T-Mobile, and I can't get signal in work with that network. Is there a way to unlock it to Orange or o2?
Any help would be great.
Thanks
The only way to get a T-Mobile G1 to work with other network is to unlock it.
You'll have to get it unlock by either contacting T-Mobile and asked them for the unlock code. Or pay for the unlock code through the third party site that offer that support for a fee.

[Q] no unlock code prompt when adding sim

I have a locked tmobile htc one and bought a tmobile compatible sim from ST. I also acquired my specific unlock code but when I put the new sim in, the prompt to unlock does not appear. AND after I enter new APN, I cant delete the stock tmo APNs and the the phone keeps defaulting back to tmo APN.....
I get phone and MMS but no email or internet. HOW CAN I ENTER MY UNLOCK CODE???
thanks for any help or suggestions.
You need to put in a non T-Mobile sim for the network unlock prompt to display.
thank you, but now....

[Q] AT&T SIM card issue

I have unlocked my Z1s from T-Mobile's network so it should work on AT&T as they are both GSM and use most of the same bands. After unlocking it and verifying that my phone is indeed unlocked I put my AT&T SIM card in and the phone reset but it does not recognize the SIM card. Is this something AT&T needs to solve, or is there a way I can remedy this issue?

What method did you use to unlock?

I purchased an unlock code. I entered it and it shows it as being unlocked.
Seems like your phone/imei is blacklisted...query the national blacklist with your imei to get it confirmed
The phone was on T-Mobile's "blacklist", it has since been removed and says that it is ready to be used. The phone still does not read the AT&T SIM card. I am wondering now if the SIM card is locked, or if it is a hardware issue. Thoughts?

Unlocked Galaxy S6 Active?

I would like to purchase the GS6A from Amazon. It's without a plan but it is locked. Will I be able to unlock it in my country if I don't have any account at ATT's, etc?
How does that work?
You don't need a AT&T account for unlocking it. You can buy the unlock code form any unlocking website online.
My self using it in India bought from eBay and unlocked it later.
Note that it's not blacklisted or anything like that.
If you buy from ATT and pay retail price, they will give you the unlock code. Just call their customer service line.
Doesn't Make Sense
So, since I don't know much about unlocking devices, I asked AT&T Customer Support about it:
Me : After the 14 days: In unlocking the phone, does the phone have to be connected to the network actively at that time? What if I'm out of the country with the phone and want to unlock it remotely from some other location outside of AT&T network?
Karina : You will need to be within the U.S. to have it connected to our network to have it unlocked.
Me : I couldn't be on ROAMING at the time?
Karina : No, that will be since you will receive an email with the code to have it unlocked and need to be connected to our service.

So, this doesn't make sense, because the process for unlocking the phone is to turn it off, remove the AT&T SIM, put in another carrier's SIM.
Turn on the device and you should receive a message to enter in an unlock code.
Don't see why the phone needs to be present on the AT&T network first in order to receive the unlock code. What, do they send it via SMS or something?

XT1774 can't figure out where to enter unlock code for sim.

I got the unlock code off ebay. When I put a verizon postpaid sim in I just get a webpage for phone locked, when I dial #786074* I just get a voice prompt saying device is not active. How do I unlock?
Ok, found it! from settings: wireless & networks:
well, I can't find it again. I think it goes away once I unlock it. But there was an option in there to change network carriers and that brought me to the unlock screen.
