How sketchy are the ebay unlockers?

I have not ever done this before, but I found this one
http://cgi.ebay.com/UNLOCK-Code-AT-...Accessories&hash=item1c138c9851#ht_4764wt_913
I was wondering if any of these are legit or do they all fall into the realm of too good to be true. I have called at&t and they stated that I could not have an unlock code so that is why I am going down this route, if it turns out to be legit.
Anyway I welcome your feedback about what may be just a dumbass question, LOL.
p.s. the only reason I am looking at this guy's page is that he has +50000 reviews with 99.8% quality.

my one experience with an ebay unlock code was it bricked the phone I was using. After doing further research I found that this was a constant for that phone. I have not seen any posts about unlocking an Aria yet but I also have not been looking for them since I am on AT&T so there is no need to unlock the phone for a different carrier currently.

that's the same guy i used to unlock 3 at&t phone. i never had a problem

If you are going out of the country then call att and tell them that. they will give you your unlock code for free all youll have to do is get a different (Non att) sim.

They changed that policy. Now you have to wait for your contract to run out before they will unlock your phone, even if you tell them you're traveling. I tried calling them and having them unlock it, and that's what they told me. I was really disappointed too, because they've unlocked my phone before and never gave me any trouble because of the contract.
Maybe if I had threatened to unlock it anyhow, I might have had better luck– but I doubt it.

Ya I tried calling them too. Told them my situation and it was denied. I guess I will try this guy. At the most I am out 10 bucks.

Strange, I just re-upped my contract when buying my Aria, and unlocked my phone with the code from ATT tech support for free. I do go internation a few times/year, so that may be a flag that I am not entirely lying, but it was no problem. Also, I used chat, instead of phone...they gave the my code in 10 seconds.

So I took the plunge. Fast service from this guy. Bought yesterday and got today. Went by t-mobile store and borrowed a sim. Put in unlock code and let me in the system. Rebooted to verify with t-mobile sim. Did not ask for code the second time.
Altogether happy. Me -$13.00. Phone unlocked.
Buyer beware. Cannot guarantee same results.

I also used blowfish06 to try and unlock my HTC Aria. He couldn't unlock it for whatever reason and immediately refunded my money. I'd use him again.

just curious so please forgive me but how did that go, you walked into store..umm, can I borrow a sim ? they just hand them out to try out ?
I spoke with ATT tech (actually chat and then called to verify..) and they said they will give unlock code in 90 days from day of activation, no problem on their part, no cost.

i'm curious about all this too and still with a locked HTC Aria.
I went to the ebay link and read everything.
At some point it says:
"...be advised I cannot do refunds if phone asking for a PIN (personal code) which is password set on the phone (?)"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well if this is my phone and I have the personal password, then I might have it.
When inserting a SIM card the phone says:
"SIM network unlock PIN", SOOOOO, I don't get it... will write the guy an email about it and hear what he says about it...
Eager to unlock this phone!

So..
1. I have heard various things from people regarding what AT&T will do for them. I would call them first and if they will unlock it for you then great. I spoke to them and they would not give it to me and told me that they had an exclusive right to the phone for the foreseeable future.
2. I did just walk into the t-mobile store and ask for a sim. The girl looked at me puzzled and said they are 20 bucks. I told here I need it for five seconds to unlock my phone. She said that Phones don't do that. I said that I have the code. She gave me a used sim.
In conclusion I think that I did go searching for a credible way to do this. I don't want a million people telling me what at&t's policy is since I did call them though. At any rate I did unlock my phone so I am good.

May I ask you and if you remember what was the message the phone displayed before you unlock it with the t-moblie SIM card?
It was the message "SIM network unlock PIN" or what did it say?
I believe what you did, I've done certain type of things in past, walking into a store and asking for those sort of things... lol... great that it worked!

Ya it was something like "SIM NETWORK UNLOCK" not a personal unlock and I had to put in the 8 digit unlock code I bought off ebay. The previous post of mine was just about all the people stating all the AT&T policies that they have heard of and asking why I didn't just call them when I stated in my first post that I did. Also ya social engineering worked great there as they gave me some old sim to use they they found in a desk that didn't work but had a different network ID on it so it would prompt me for the SIM UNLOCK code.

seems then that I 'm having the same message, will try buying a code from the ebay guy then.
thanks a lot for your response.
PS. Calling AT&T wont work for me either as I bought the phone through ebay and I have not and will never have AT&T phone # or something to just simply call them and say 'hey I bought one of your phones over ebay, would you please give me the unlock code?' lol...

just bought a code from the ebay seller... will see how it develops and if the code works.
I will post results and everything related once I have the code

universal Sim
I have tried a few online sellers and they say a code is not available for my aria. Bummer, hopefully that will change. I remembered I had one of those universal sim chips like a Rebel Sim. I sort of works. Sometimes when I turn the phone on I can manually choose the network and get service, but most of the time it won't connect. Maybe I can buy a newer version of the universal sim.

Well dude, I got to say that the ebay deal really worked for me!!! Couldn't be more happy!
Was a little skeptical about it but just got the code on the email minutes ago and worked right away!!!
Cost me 9.95 because the price was reduced and paid with PayPal. Bought it in the morning and got the code minutes ago.
There's another ebay seller with the same price/offer which seems to work too (good feedback too)

What phone did you tried to unlock?
---------------
Thanks to breakeven and xda-developers forum!!!

I decided to test this out today for fun.
I tried 3 different ebay unlockers (all were rated as top-sellers) and all 3 were unable to unlock my off-contract Aria (from Amazon). They did, however, offer to try on another server, at around 2-3x the original cost, which I refused and was refunded my money.
I really don't care if my Aria can be unlocked since I have no intention of leaving AT&T anyway, but I thought I'd share MY experience with the rest of you. YOUR experience may vary.
On a side note, I unlocked 2 different models of Blackberry (again, just for fun) a few days ago using one of those ebay sellers with no problem. So I wouldn't worry too much about getting ripped off (as long as they are top rated sellers).

hey tongas would you mind telling us which ebay seller unlocked you Aria?
Thanks

Unlock issue

Hi,
I have bought a used AT&T and bought a SIM unlock code from ebay from a seller with thousands of sells and 99.9% good rating.
The problem is that the code does not work. When I try to use it I just receive a message "Network Unlock Request Unsuccessful"?
Is there any solution for this or I have nothing to do and the device cannot be unlocked?
Thank you.

Contact seller because
1) you miss typed imei
2) he miss typed it
3) he gave you wrong code
After 5 tries you are stuck and can not unlock

I have checked that the IMEI which he based the unlock code on and it was correct. I am afraid that the guy which sold me the phone tried to unlock it too many times before selling the the phone. Is there any way to confirm it or override the lock and use the code successfully?
Thank you.

Anyone actually had this happen? I've heard rumors of a hardlock, but I've never seen an actual case. If someone has, was there some kind of message that appeared to indicate the hardlock?

well I have the same issue. Bought the phone through ebay, and after 7 days finally came to Croatia and I was so happy cause it doesn't sell in Europe. Then I had to input sim network unlock code which I didn't have, thought it was sim unlock code so after trying couple of times I guess I locked it. I bought the cone over ebay again for 2.30$ (so cheap) from unlock_fusion seller and they sent it to me in 5minutes! Of course the code didn't work, they refunded the money and I was stuck!!!
Now I gave it to service guys and they said that they will do it for 200kn - cca 40$. Now I'm waiting for feedback and if they do make it I will tell you how they did it.
Hope it will be ok because otherwise I have a 300$ toy which does not work.

i heard that if you leave the phone to sit on the "input sim unlock code" screen for a little while, it will reset back and you can put a code in.
i think i heard 30min. sucks but worth a try?

I also heard that it can take up to 8h with that screen on, I left mine during all night but did no good, but the service guy told me that motorola phone counter counts only when the screen is active (there is light on).

I fixed my Atrix SIM unlock issue!
Definitely no hard lock. The previous owner tried the unlock code at least 20 times, I tried it another 10. But after flashing the radio through a couple of versions, I was able to get it to finally accept that same code! Wahoo!

Unlocked AT&T Note 7

I was thinking about requesting to unlock the Note 7 from AT&T when I get the phone or maybe in a couple month. Have any of you unlocked a phone through them before? does it cost anything?

Unlocked AT&T Note 7
As long as you aren't on a contract or payment plan in the phone they will unlock it after the return policy is up (14 days). It's all automated through their website and very easy. Doesn't cost a thing.

Dunno. It's what I use, it works. Can't say if it's better or worse.

I just tried to unlock my paid off Galaxy S4 from AT&T. They sent me a pin code that I have to input into the phone. But, the pin won't work unless I insert the sim card of another carrier. So, it is actually a pain in the ass because now I have to find another sim card, probably from T-Mobile, just to unlock the damn phone.

Weird. Mine worked fine with my AT&T sim.

These were the unlock instructions they sent me to unlock my AT&T Galaxy S4:
Instructions:
Unlock Steps - Use Non-AT&T SIM Card
1. Power off the device, remove the battery, and insert a non-AT&T SIM card.
2. Re-insert the battery and power on the device with non-AT&T SIM.
3. The device displays Enter the device unlock code.
4. Enter the eight-digit unlock code.
5. Press OK.
Note: You are allowed five attempts to unlock before your device permanently locks to the AT&T network.
EDIT: I just went online and looked for a different unlock method because I don't have another sim card and I don't want to go to T-Mobile to ask for one. Remove your sim card, power on the phone, go to the dialer and enter #7465625*638*# then enter your unlock code, which should be emailed to you from AT&T after you ask them to unlock it.

You can always get a free T-Mobile sim to throw in it for the unlock.

Just yesterday I've talked about this at att store, and the guy told me I have to use their service (active account) for at least 6 month after purchasing a phone, before they allow unlock it...wtf?

May be the case now, but a year ago when I bought my wife her iPhone 6, it unlocked the first time I hooked it to a computer (about an hour after walking out of the store with it), and my S7e was unlocked after the 14 day return policy was up. Doesn't mean there hasn't been a recent change, but when I've paid for a device outright it's always been unlocked.

Does anyone know if the wifi hotspot validation is disabled after ATT unlocks the phone? I'm not feeling like asking AT&T permission on when to enable wifi hotspot on my phone that I have paid a full price for.

From what I've noticed:
1. ATT can unlock devices through this site:
https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/request/#/unlockstep1
2. For my note 7 I purchased, the IMEI isn't recognized
3. Support is useless they will only refer to the website mentioned in step 2
I have already purchased a sim unlock code from a third party. Hope it works

because i'm not an AT&T customer (Cricket) she said she had to manually create a temporary
account so she could submit the unlock request. the first two reps i spoke to were worthless
and kept telling me there was nothing they could do and i had to submit the request online.
finally on the 3rd call i demanded a supervisor and it took her a bit but she managed to figure
it out.
good luck !

That's nothing. Third call this morning
I have to go back to the store and rescan it so it registers in their system. Seriously, I was told that.
I'll call back in a few minutes - it's been close to an hour. But that's unnerving. Can't they see there's something wrong with the att unlock website? It's rather simple actually.

it's a hassle but it can be done

Samsung Galaxy S8 Xfinity Mobile

Hello. I have recently purchased a samsung galaxy s8 that was on xfinity mobile and the orginal owner didnt know his account info so he couldnt unlock the device. I have been trying for days now trying to unlock it and i dont have any money right now. Could someone please unlock my device. I switched the rom to a g950u1 hoping it would unlock it which it didnt. All it did was remove the bloatware. I can't call or text anyone and its really been annoying me. It just says Invalid Sim Card, and ask for a unlock code. i was hoping if someone could unlock my device for free, i would greatly appreciate it. I dont have any money but if someone play's PC games i can give someone a gta 5 account for just the trouble you will have to go through. i am extremely desperate.
Heres my phone info
Model Number: SM-G950U1
SERIAL NUMBER: R28K3448P4E
IMEI: 356353081744156
BUILD NUMBER:R16NW.G950U1UES5CRF5
and the carrier code is, CSS.
I would be extremely gratefull if you could unlock it. Have a great day and please respond ASAP! Thanks!

Is your phone locked to a certain sim network and you want to unlock it to any network, or does your phone ask for the google account that was used on the phone to unlock?

There isn't a free way to do it, you can do it yourself by googling something like "Samsung galaxy s8 unlocking service from xfinity", it will cost you anywhere from 10-40 dollars to get your phone unlocked, but imo you are better off going into a local shop and getting someone to do it that know what websites aren't scams

It's not cheap wise either I have unlocking software and regular means did not work on mine. I am a xfin customer. The unlock code is like a 15 digit msl code. We had to brute force mine it took several hours to read. And get the code. Your going t have to pay. Xfinity probably won't do it either even the software I got it Has to be unlocked using the same tool t mobile s8 uses and costs quite a bit

S10+ sim unlock question

So I got my s10+ thru AT&T on launch day but I would like to sim unlock it. I have tried 2 companies and they are telling me it's hard getting the codes right now, even though I asked before placing the order and was assured it would be all set.
Has anyone tried this and succeeded?
Thanks for any help

All of the servers we use to get codes state on all networks that "16 digit codes are unavailable". The s10 range are 16 digit codes.
We used "Chimera" to unlock my own phone and went through no problems..
You'll need to find an unlock shop that uses this software as it appears to be the only 3rd party solution at the minute.

Blartiartfast
That makes sense then and why no one can unlock yet with the codes. Does it usually take a week or two after launch for the codes to show?

Has anyone found a Sim Unlock site for the S10 that actually worked. Hoping the codes would of been out by now.

2 days after receiving my S10+ and processing the unlock request on the first day with At&t, I received my code to unlock the phone.

Yes I know they have to be paid off, a reached out to UnlockRiver last week and they couldn't then but how they said they can so I will give them a shot.

Please let me know, I could have my carrier locked S10+ in my hands by the end of this week and would like to unlock it.

I submitted the request today, I'll let you know how I make out.

So I finally got the unlock done. I went thru Cellunlocker.net. The codes are apparently still not available but they offered an alternative way. After I made payment they send you an email with a link and directions.
I had to download the program AnyDesk on my PC, from there I just connected my phone and the tech did the rest. Took about 10 minutes. My phone restarted twice and aft er the s ed condition reset he had me install the sim I wanted to use, came up with the Network Code request and I entered 8 zeros. Permanent Unlock! They did give me a discount code to share RMCU10.

i got mine from cellunlocker as well after getting the s10+ 2 days before. paid 25 for it

I went through cellunlocker as well and it took me about 2 1/2 days to get the codes, they sent me 3 codes (NCK, MCK, and RGCK). I used the 16 digits "NCK" code for mine. I put in my Google FI sim card, It asked for unlock code, and I used "NCK". Boom unlocked My S10+ was locked to Spectrum Mobile if that helps. Good luck!

I did mines on https://sim-unlock.net/ it took a day and £19.

just have a look at http://www.unlocksamsungonline.nl/en/scc it's direct unlock over USB cable so no need to wait for codes, latest security patches are supported, no need for root or downgrade. and most important, service is independant, and instant 24/7 so no need to wait for codes, just press the direct unlock botton and phone unlocked within 30 seconds.

Chimera won't do it

All of the servers we use to get codes state on all networks that "16 digit codes are unavailable". The s10 range are 16 digit codes.
We used "Chimera" to unlock my own phone and went through no problems..
You'll need to find an unlock shop that uses this software as it appears to be the only 3rd party solution at the minute.

The option of online unlock is not available with S10+ From Verizon (SM-G975U). You bought that software because I did read you and all I got was nothing.

What's the process for the t mobile branded s10+? Is it the same process as it was using the t mobile unlock app?

just did mine via gsmzambia.com, also by usb

What happens if you try a SIM unlock code 3 times unsuccessfully? Does it kill the SIM card?
