No, there is no solution available at the moment. A couple of people have been able to persuade ATT to give them codes after many days of phone calls and support chat. A few have had some varying success with turbo sims that supposedly fool the phone into thinking the sim is an ATT sim, but that's it.
based on what I have read online. ATT often will unlock your phone when you are in the contract for like 6 months or a year.
I called them with my tilt 2 about a year into my contract. Tell them that I am traveling oversea and want to use the phone internationally. They gave me the code without much hassle.
Not sure if this is partially due to the fact I have been with ATT for years.
Online search also shows that ATT will often unlock almost all smartphoen for you except iPhone, so keep try them and if the CSR does not help, ask for supervisor.

The official requirements are:
1. at least 90 days into a contract
2. Have a post paid account with contract
3. Paid all bills on time.

Captivate has proven to be an exception to this. There is already a long thread about Sim Unlock. The bottom line is AT&T won't give you a unlock code for Captivate until 10 months later.

Hi jentech
have read the whole thread "SIM unlock" till yet and have not a good feeling when my captivate will arrive to contact AT&T for the unlock code.
I never has been a AT&T customer cause living outside the US and won´t be to become one so hope they could understand my problem...
Do you have an email contact for their support-center?

If you're not an AT&T customer, they typically won't help you with unlock at all. Good luck.
Not sure why there is another unlock thread, but At&T told me they would. Unlock in 90 days. I have no reason to doubt them.

unlock Captivate with froyo
today i unlocked my captivate with an app called Galaxy S Unlock get it in the market very easy to do also on youtube i am running froyo 2.2, version I897ucji6 and i am rooted (need to be rooted)
Finally got the captivate to unlock and accept the tmobile sim today. Everything seems to be working fine so far. No data on the plan but using wifi til I add data. One thing I'm really curious about is.... Now that the phone is unlocked and working, If I flash a custom rom (say cognition for example) will I lose the "unlock" ?
*edit* forgot to say how I did it... I just simply flashed back to stock 2.1, master cleared,rooted, installed busybox and galaxy unlock app, used the #2 method with the unlock app and it worked. PATIENCE IS KEY! ===> It takes a good 2-4 minutes for the tmobile signal to kick in so it may seem as if the unlock failed but it just takes alot longer than the at&t signal to kick in.

You've post this already in paragon thread...simply no you are permanently unlock now the lock code inside your phone has been wiped out by the app you used.
Really need a way to unlock my galaxy s4 active from at&t, just bought off ebay and rooted it but haven't found a way to unlock the network yet so I can use 4g with solavei.
I tried using the *#0011# method but couldn't past the initial screen.
Please any help would be appreciated.

All I did was call 611 and told them that I was leaving the country and I need it for business. However they have records that my previous phones have been unlocked for travels as well as me buying phone from them. You could always try and test your luck though. I've read a thread somewhere that someone got their S4A unlocked similar to how I got mine unlocked but they didn't specify whether or not they got it through AT&T or not. Oh and if it doesn't work with one rep, try calling again later with another rep. Supposedly some reps care and look into your records to see if you qualify and others don't give a crap. Good luck!
I have at&t and called them to try to get my phone unlocked. they told me it wasn't possible since I just purchased the phone back in August, even though I've had an account with them for the last decade and have had many unlocked phones with them.
I was told that this policy was changed within the last 2 weeks, not sure if that's a BS line they fed me or not, but have tried calling different reps and have had no luck.
Also, when I enter my number in online to the online request form, it automatically tells me my phone cannot be unlocked. Apparently new policy states that any phone that is still under contract will not be unlocked my AT&T.
where are all the helpful replies?
Im in the same boat. There has to b a way. Why cant we roll back the jellybean build to a version that has access to the unlock panel?
Why is unlocking not possible using a root method of some type??? Is this build truely not unlockable without a custom code? MOD Edit: This is a development site. Please do not ask for illegal unlocking methods here
post some links to helpful blogs etc please
This is the leading site for answers but mod says look elsewhere with no helpful redirection..... WTF?
Where should we go now then?

That's unfortunate. If it was me, I'd just keep trying to test my luck but I guess AT&T wised up a bit.

MOD kinda said they are a development site and don't partake in illegal methods. In case you didn't know, unlocking without carrier consent is illegal however rooting/flashing roms and etc aren't since they are just part of the opensource backbone of android. And to answer your question, google is a good place to start if you can't get answers here.
The reason the mods took issue with this is because the OP is not an AT$T customer, he bought a phone off eBay, and is now looking for someone to help him with his mistake. Carriers only unlock phones for customers as a courtesy, there is no requirement of them to do so. While XDA is all about modding phones, providing unlock codes for people who are not entitled to them is against their policy. Better that he bought one of the many unlocked phones for sale on eBay. I'm surprised the mods didn't also close this thread.
Look up Chainfires region lock away. Got a s4 active off eBay, rooted it with the activerootapp. Then used chainfires Regionlockaway. And popped in a tmobile sim card and enabled aws bands and now using HSPA+.

Yep got chainfires app on playstore and used irish sim card which worked. I am with at&t and not looking to move but I bought my phone on ebay and if I go to Ireland I feel entitled to use it freely.

Hello all,
Firstly appologies if I'm on the wrong thread I couldn't find one for the Ativ S neo.
I've just bought a Samsung Ativ S neo locked to AT&T, I thought I would only be a question of paying for the unlock code et voila. But the 2 unlocking company I have used so far could not get a code. I was wondering if someone here had similar experience and if they manage to sort it out.
Thanks in advance,
Cheerio
I thought the Neo was on Sprint only? In any case, have you tried talking to AT&T directly?
It was extremely recent.

AT&T release their Neo in November. I've tried to phone them but gave up aafter a while being sent from service to service, I try to send them an email but it came back saying that they don't deal with customer care by email anymore. I'll try to call them again, the 8hrs difference makes it a bit tricky ...

I have the exact same problem. I also tested with two different services and non of them was able to unlock my device both said that they couldn't find my imei in the database.
I've called them twice now and both time they told me I need to have an account with them to get te unlock code. If there is anyone with an AT&T account willing to help to would be appreciated, it's free for you I could reward you for your help...
PM me if willing.

I have ordered a at&t go sim from eBay hopping that when I register it I will be a costumer. Don't know if that will work but guess it's worth a shot.

Of course, haven't got my sim yet. Expecting it next week.
Don't know if it's true but I read somewhere that you must activate the phone with an at&t sim before entering an unlock code or it will get permanently locked.

I've finally managed to get it unlocked through "theunlockingcompany.com" At first they didn't have the code and refunded me straight away asking me to check with them by email in 2-3 weeks, which I did and they now gave me the code. It cost me £18
No need for AT&T sim card.

Posted in a couple threads but thought I should start a new one so that people could give it a try if they wanted...
I can tell you that I have had my S6 for about 4 days and I put my prepaid sim card in it instead of the one it came with (had to create a postpaid account so that I could get this phone!). I tried to unlock with the app on the phone and it told me NO, I am not eligible to do that, but I just tried it a 3rd time about 30 mins ago and BOOM! I am permanently unlocked and can confirm that AT&T works great! The phone rebooted and it automatically froze the unlock app. LOL I un froze the app and sure enough, I am perm unlocked! Not bad for using the phone for less than a week and not calling T-Mobile even once to ask. Just wanted to give people a heads up in case u wanted to try this yourself with a pre-paid sim (if u have a prepaid account, of course). I love my $30 plan! :good:
Damn might have to try this out. Thanks!

TMOBILE S6 has an unlocked bootloader - BUT the SIM CARD is locked - the guy who posted here was apparently a long time customer on TMOBILE and because he has had an active account for longer than 40 days, he can unlock his sim card using the ap that comes on the phone. BUT if you want to use tmobile S6 on ATT - y ou may have to wait 40 days to get the SIM Card unlocked - unless you possibly know someone who has been on TMOBILE for a while and they let you use their SIM Card to get your phone unlocked....

so just put friends tmobile sim in there, and launch that app right after? or..... u are saying I HAVE TO let my friend play with my NEW S6 for few days. then use that app to unlock it.
Any other way I can get unlocked tmobile devices? I think last time I saw staples.com was selling unlocked tmobile lg g3.

I am not the one who discovered this - but from my understanding - you should be able to put the TMOBILE Sim Card into the phone (from the friend who has been on TMOBILE for a long time) and from what someone else said, the unlock ap wil unlock hyour phone. Then switch the Sim Card with the ATT sim card and you should be good to go.
Check oout the QA Thread for details - here is the post where someone else explained it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6/help/unlocked-s6-att-t3069140/page2 GOOD LUCK -i hope it works for you - I don't know anyone on TMOBILE so I can't try it myself yet...

There seems to be some misinformation in this thread. I am a prepaid customer who hops around from different prepaid companies for the best rate plan/price and am currently with Harbor Mobile (T-Mobile agent) and I purchased some minutes for my prepaid $30 plan on T-Mobile prior to grabbing the S6 JUST so i could test out the unlocking. The unlock rules apply to each device that are on your account so while I may have been on T-Mobile prepaid for about a year, it was off and on and NOT continuous service which you must have at least 40 days of continuous service PER device that u want to unlock. So, I unlocked my Note 4 a couple of months ago through them but I just received my S6 so I would have had to wait 40 days to get my unlock because it's a new device AND I have failed to maintain continuous service for 40 days anyways, even if the other rule applied. Also, the reason I mentioned that it worked on the 3rd or 4th day I had the phone is because it literally takes T-Mobiles system that damn long for them to actually tell which device you have on their network. I don't know why they can't tell right away but I have swapped devices many times and I have found out that the 3 day rule applies ( at least to prepaid) cause when I call them up for a question or problem after I have swapped my phone they have no idea which one I'm using so anyway, I just wanted to give some more insight on what I have experienced through my time with T-Mobile prepaid and how their system works based on what I have been told and my experiences. I can almost guarantee you aren't just going to be able to throw your buddies sim in and unlock your phone! That would just be waaaay too easy and why would any carrier want to give you the easy way out?? LOL Anyways, take care guys and hopefully I helped answer a few questions. I will be off and on so I can answer any questions u may have relating to my experiences. You most certainly can try any method you think may work but I think I got lucky somehow and really it was VERY odd! I think it will be figured out very soon though so no need to worry as we already know they can be unlocked and I already confirmed this model works with AT&T 100%. :good:

Used my friend's Tmobile SIM card, and tried permanently unlocking it, didn't work. Even Temporary unlock didn't work. He's been a long time customer with TMo
I can confirm that official T-Mobile "Device Unlock" app unlocked my phone. First thing I did when I got the phone.. Using the T-Mobile Sim that came with the phone, opened up Device Unlock (pre-installed by the way), confirmed to unlock, no freezing no nothing it just worked and rebooted.
Phone is on a business account, upgraded via Jump 1.0, unlock prior to the OTA if any of this matters

It sure does. Business accounts can be unlocked much quicker than personal accounts. Lucky you, enjoy her--she's a beast
i paid in full for the s6 , when i tried to unlock with the app it said cannot be unlocked , contacted the cust. support and they said you have to wait 40 days
i went to twitter and wrote some tweets to @Tmobile usa and they responded immediately and after showing them the proof of my purchase they said to try the app again and it worked ,,,
twitter helps
Just to be clear...
Everyone who successfully attempted this paid off the phone in full?
No EIP? Correct?
Just here to check updates. I am a full on tmo customer and am thinking of trying this. Even though I don't need it. Would be nice to just have it.

Hello members
I have a note 9 running at&t USA. I am looking for a unlock company. I've been through 3 so far and all are saying my imei isn't showing up on Samsung server. Any help would be great
Thanks
I am running into the same issue. I will let you know if anything changes as I have had a request out to about 4 companies.

I have been looking into this. There alot of services in ebay. Some of them do it internally. Other require a computer and teamview to be able to sim unlock
its easy to unlock.. pay the phone off and request through your carrier.. problem solved

Then wait the 6 months and request unlock. Next time I recommend buying direct from Samsung as it'll be unlocked and surely they "have them" in your area lol.

theres such thing as international sim unlock that is not the same as a domestic sim unlock and has lesser requirements.. if they legitimately want to use internationally then call the carrier and have them submit an international sim unlock request.. just dont expect it to be domestically unlocked lol
Hey Guys,
For those that are wondering it look 3 business days, but out of the 4 companies I tried, cellunlocker.net got me the proper codes.
Hope this helps!

Unlockriver got me the code took 10days but Samsung updated their servers
For those saying just to get the SIM unlock from ATT...well ATT is giving out an 8 digit unlock code. The Note 9 requires a 16-digit code. I got the code from ATT. Typed it in twice, very carefully, and it didn't work. Did some research, and now I had to pay for cellunlocker to get me a 16-digit code. So the waiting game begins...again.
It worked!! Less than 12 hours later and I had a 16 digit code. I'm now running my T-Mobile SIM without issues!

This may be because note 9 is quite new model for unlocking and also because of codes are changed for note 9, as previous Samsung phone models require 8 digit unlock code but the new note 9 require 16 digit code to unlock. you can try codes2unlock.com as they provide the 16 digit code for note 9.

That and because Samsung is run by a bunch of f*cking idiots and don't know how properly distribute OTAs and unlock codes to their carrier branded devices. They quite frankly have the absolute worst CS of any manufacturer I've ever encountered. I'll likely be switching to Apple for the first time ever due the sheer amount of bull**** I've had to endure dealing with these simpletons. Just isn't worth it.
Hi guys, anybody had luck sim unlocking SM-N960F/DS already tried 2 unlocking sites with no luck. Maybe I there is a way to root and sim unlock at the same time. My carrier is Globe philippines. Need to use the phone abroad. Thanks.
