Hey guys, whats up ?
I'm planning on buying a used Lumia 920 from eBay and wanted to know if there is a legitimate way to unlock this phone.
I've read threads about AT&T not giving the unlock codes online anymore and that you have to be a customer in order to do so. Is this true ?
If so, what are other legitimate ways that i can unlock this phone, i really want to know this, Thanks for the help. Awaiting responses.

You can unlock it with code. You can buy that code from random sites. Search here or google.
It costs about 60 $.
Ok thanks for the heads up. Are there any FREE ways to get it unlocked ?
Some with at&t accounts, but i don't know about that. I have paid for unlocking.
As far as I know, there isn't any way for unlocking yet for free.
For unlocking ............. Lumia 920

Hi all, I am really new to this forum.
First of all I would like to apologize if this is a double post.
Can some one please help me unlock the X10 from at&t.
I would always unlock att phones by calling their costumer service but they were not able to generate or give me the key to my X10 for some reason. I wonder if there is another way to unlock the phone so i can use sim frm other carriers.
I'm interested as well =)

Don't take No for an answer from AT&T. By law, at least in the USA, AT&T has to give you the unlock code 90 days into your contract. Just gotta ask for it.... so they say anyway. Try taking it in to the store. The other ways, like Lance, cost $30+. AT&T should be FREE!

With a custom ROM you have UNBRANDED the phone but not unlocked it. Unlocking it means that you can put any SIM card into it so that if you travel to the EU or other GSM areas you can get a local SIM card much cheaper than an international plan for ATT.
It also doesn't mean that suddenly you have new wireless frequencies either, so if you put in a T-Mobile sim card you won't get their 3G/H or any EU 3G/H.
Some people have reported that your phone will show ROAM when on ATT after unlocking but this shouldn't be a problem as you are a ATT contract holder.
Don't worry i will help you to Unlock Your Sony Ericsson Phones from Network Lock,You can use the Unlock Code to unlock it from Network lock,But you can get the code from Online site...You can get the Unlock code from the site www.simpleunlocking.com and Unlock it......They get the code from Network Data base and provide to you.
for codes you can contact your service provider or can get it from online providers

Hi, There is no guide but you can instructions on unlocking a phone, there are a lot of methods available so for. I always suggest, for the unlocking, contacting our telecom service provider is the one of the ways to get the unlocking code or contacting service provider like theunlockspot.com might be an another way to get an unlocking code. The direct unlocking codes can be received in those two ways I mentioned. Thanks.

According to the current threads covering this subject there are no codes released for the 920 yet. In fact there is about a 4 month back log and most of the sites that offer codes are scams.

Need Help From AT&T Customer.
To the OP
you need to make sure from AT&T or even Tmobile will check if the IMEI is in the Blocked list they have now in effect. If it is in the "LOST/STOLEN" list or Fraud from insurance claims or something like that that IMEI is blocked in the united states.
If so, no way no how will AT&T give you the unlock code.
If you device happens to be on that list, you may just have to wait until unlockers get a way of doing it.
Or buy a Verizon, 822 they already come Sim Unlocked.
Good LUck
or htc 8x verizon,
or a Rogers lumia

well i dont have an active at&t account, if anything i willing to check for you is if its in a black list or not. you can either load your IMEI here or if you feel more comfortable PM me. then i can call them and check status. after they give me the status i can give you the feedback they gave me.
you decide.

Have you not read any of the other post regarding unlock codes for this phone? Even if you are an ATT customer the back log for unlock codes is right now nearly a year. All the websites that claim they have them are nothing but scams that will steal your money.
To put it bluntly, there are currently no unlock codes. No one other than those paid by or working for those scam sites have reported getting an unlock code that works. You have to own the phone through a contract with ATT and wait the full term of the contract which is 2 years before ATT will even consider giving you a code and then they still have to get it from Nokia whom may or may not agree to release it.
I am currently with T-mobile and accidentally bought a "locked" Lumia 920 to AT&T from ebay.
Because I was short on money I even bought one with cracked screen but I cannot use it with T-mobile...
I visited AT&T, T-mobile store and they won't unlock it and since I am not a AT&T customer, I can't ask them either.
I tried downloading multiple softwares and other variety of things but seems no success...
Is there anyone who can generate unlock code for me? That would be really appreciated.
I am facing similar problem. At&t said the customer to whom the phone(imei) is linked can ask for the unlock code no one else. And my seller is such a jerk he simply ignored my requests to help me. As the servers are down no third party code provider is in position to help.

Search "CellUnlock" with Google.
Sent from My Nokia Lumia 920.
There are a host of stores online that will sell you an unlock code for 50 USD or less. You can also call AT&T and tell them you bought for your daughter or son or even yourself to use while you are overseas for month. You need it unlocked so you can use it on a network over there. They will give you a code as long as the phone is not on a contract.
Unlock code for AT&T devices are pretty cheap in fleabay. Paid just around US$3.50. Worth it to get out of hassle and unlock easily.
Rogers device are around $15 online.

Hi, does unlocking my cellphone to make it work with all companies lock it in my country? My cellphone is from Chile, I talk with Claro there. I am in Canada and I want to unlock it to Bell or any other companies. If I had it unlocked for Bell, would it work back home?
Ps. if you know of any unlocking services would you please tell me. Thanks :good:

Yes once it is unlocked it will work with any GSM carrier in the world. I am assuming you are talking about a GSM phone here.
Besides unlocking services, usually your home carrier will give you the unlock code for free and the instructions of where to enter in that code in your phone to unlock it, if you tell them you need to unlock it because you are traveling abroad. Usually they want you to have owned the phone for a while (like 6 months for some carriers) before they give you the code though. No harm in trying to ask the customer care.
I asked my home carrier for a unlocking code, they said they would contact the cellphone manufacturer and get it in about 3 weeks, which is too long. Does anyone know of another faster option? Thanks... If I can do it by myself that would be excellent too
Hey thanks for the great information but you know what, I couldn't find my device there... it's a Moto G!
Do you know of other good sites to unlock? Thanks!

alright, well i dont know which carrier my cellphone is locked to since i bought it to a friend who bought it from another friend in Chile and in chile the phones are unlocked to all chilean companies...anyways I contacted motorola and they said they could provide the subsidy code in 72 hours... ill let you know
hey, Motorola actually called me and gave me 2 subsidy codes and none worked....!!!! i actually double checked the IMEI number and they said it was correct, so I guess i'll have to use one of them unlock websites.... does anyone knows if eBay is safe to do that?
many thanks =)
