On the atrix I don't want it unlocked anymore the bootloader so how can it be locked again?
It can't, once unlocked always unlocked. Only thing you can do is flash an sbf to "hide" the unlock text but that is not recommended.

Did you ask in the pudding thread? I'm pretty sure all this is covered there.

I believe a fuse is burned once you unlock the bootloader and the process is irreversible. Sorry
Running MIUI Alpha

I had to return my atrix to warenty due to the digitizer. I just pluged my atrix up an ran the software updter from motos website. It remov3d the unlock from my device. It is actually simple to do

I did the same thing this week and sent my phone back to att for a warranty replacement.
That doesn't actually "relock" the device. It just removes the unlocked sign at boot.

That needs root. You say you are on stock but are you rooted?

Hy
Yep my phone was rooted without increasing the counter.
I've fixed my problem with upgrade to Gingerbreath and the Galaxy_s unlock app.
It seem, that this app dont work together with ICS.
Thanks for Help and nice evening
i thought we were still waiting for the verizon model to come out before the unlocked bootloader method to be released. how are we able to have CM for ATT? is it this Loki stuff that is making that possible?
Some people bought their phones off contract and have unlocked bootloaders. Also by using a company for a fee can get you an unlock code.

Sorry for the noob question, but I got my AT&T S4 from Best Buy with my 2 year upgrade contract for $200, and my friend bought his from Best Buy AT&T S4 off the contract except a lot more expensive at $749.99. Is there a difference as I thought they were both i337 models... and all were locked bootloaders...
Not to mention if you use the OUDHS recovery, it's set up to Auto-Loki any ROM which is why it would make a TW-based CM work just fine. That being said, you're going to be dealing with nightlies, so if you're not ready to have a few issues here and there, it's not worth it to you to install it until an official release comes along.

Buying through the major carriers means a subsidized cost. If you're buying off-contract, it means you're the one paying for that subsidization and not the carrier, hence the larger cost. This is exactly why people flock to CL when buying phones off-contract because it's significantly cheaper, It doesn't change anything about the phone's internal hardware, An I337 bought at BB off-contract is still the same physical model as one bought on-contract through an AT&T Store.

I think you're a bit confused. What you're talking about is for a SIM unlock. Completely unrelated to the bootloader unlock we're mentioning here. As of right now, there is no bootloader unlock available for the AT&T/VZW GS4s
oh i thought it came out on the 30th.. so i guess i gotta search around for the unlock method? not sure i understand this "Loki" stuff

Loki is not really an unlock, it's more of a way to circumvent the bootloader since as of right now there's no way to unlock the AT&T variant GS4s. Look at this thread first to download what you'll need for root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252248
After that, you can visit this thread here and find what you'll need to use a recovery. Here's one that will Auto-Loki your ROMs for you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291956
Or you can run TWRP/CWM and flash this kernel after installing whatever ROM you choose for Loki:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292341
With these tools installed, you can now run any ROM of your choice, but try to stick to those more closely based to the stock ROM as you can to keep all of your features working.
Hope that helps.

Just keep your eyes on a thread for the GW fix. Should be in the Android Development (not Original) thread. I've skimmed past it several times in the past couple days. And, yes, OUDHS will auto-Loki. TWRP as of right now will not.

Not an unlocked bootloader. Bootloader will be locked if u get the s4 from att. U can install twrp using goo manager then flash a loki'd rom/kernel if you wish. Make sure they are loki'd.

They give you the unlock code if you buy it contract free.

Again. No. You are talking about SIM unlock - which has NOTHING to do with this thread. This thread is about BOOTLOADER unlocking.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood. I was under the impression unlocking via website or at&t imei unlock code would unlock the bootloader. My fault.

Hi,
Is there anyway to remove the network unlock of my ATT Impulse (U8800-51)? I try to flash it with different roms and it always ends up asking me for a network unlock code. I bought one on Ebay but it does not work. Thanks

How does an upgrade of firmware just SIM unlock a phone?
Can anyone else confirm this?

It changes the carrier configurations and somehow unlocks it. Try it

Huawei releases general versions, not specific ones for carriers like Samsung does. So when you flash it it doesn't include your carrier lock information. Just flashing B512(is an international version) over another BXX will unlock the phone.

Hi!
I want to get a Samsung Galaxy S4 but I was wondering if I could just flash it?
In exemple:
I get a T-Mobile phone and I want to get it to work on AT&T network, can I flash the ROM so it recognizes the new sim card or unlocking it is really required?
Thanks =)

You need to sim unlock. Flashing a rom won't do it.
