Hello guys,
got one atrix at&t 4g in hands right now wich cant accept any sim card. Even the at&t one. Customer told he bought it as unlocked at am usa bestbuy shop and as arrived in home realised it´s locked indeed. As far i can see also to at&t sim card as it asks for network pin. I tried to updated it to [STOCK ROM] Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread 4.5.91 (Safest Update) following xda guide, but it keeps locked also to at&t. N tip or help from someone?
Rgds,

i did it, but the 8-dig unlock code did not work. Will try a 16 dig from a diff supplier. Weird is it should accept at&t sim card. But it doesnot.
im having a bit of a hard time understanding what u mean by the ATT sim not being accepted..if u mean there no signal when u put the sim in, its because ur friend bought it without activating it with an ATT number most likely. In which case a non active ATT sim will not register with the Roaming partners which will show up on ur phone as no service. Get a valid code from a seller such as cellunlock.net i used them and they're code worked perfectly, once u sim unlock the phone then put in a SIM from ur country and it should pick up signal all u have to do then is create a motoblur account or choose to skip that process.

Thany u for replying...
Sorry man for yr misunderstading. Wht i mean is wht i said: it does not accept any sim card. Neither one from at&t. Then, if i insert an at&t sim card (yep, i have more than 4 of them) phone asks for network pin, just like it asks when i insert other operators sim card, like claro brazil (i.e).
Its regular expected behavior should be accepting, at least, the at&t sim card since it´s from usa at&t. Of course it would not show network signal cos i am outside usa and my at&t sim cards have no credits, but it should not ask for a network pin when a at&t sim card is inserted.

Hi there Antonio. Had same problem here in Peru. Thanks to Tenfar´s CMW recovery and Gingerblur I managed to make my Atrix work with Claro Peru and Movistar. Just look for them in the development forums.

sounds like the phone is asking for a SIM Pin or what's known as a PUK Code, which unfortunately if u dont know it, u have to contact the carrier of the sim card for it, my advice would b to try to get a sim unlock code, put the code in just to make sure it is unlocked, then stick the sim for ur country's carrier inside the phone. It will probably ask for a pin again at that point call ur provider, and give them the imei/serial of the sim and ask for the sim pin/puk code. hopefully that resolves the problem. Also do not try to guess the code more then 3 times or u will fry/burn ur sim card and will need a new one.

Are you sure it's an ATT Atrix? Could it be that you have for example a Bell Atrix?
p.s. according to widely spread beliefs, if you type in the network unlock code wrong too many times, the phone will become hard locked, meaning it won't accept any sim card. could be that the person you got it from did just that.
If you can still put in a network pin your good. See, you may have an AT&T sim, but it has no service so the phone wont read it until it's unlock. You need to purchase an unlock. DO NOT GO GUESSING. I believe the Atrix has 5 attempts before locking you out forever.
at & t
@xploited
yep, it´s from at&t. It is bundled into at&t pack and also i flashed it OTA last at&t release.
@Purple Drama Llama
yep, it still asks for network pin code to unlock. No one msg like contact operator or phone freezed or whatever. Then i think it may not be hardlocked... yet.
p.s: ordered a third supplier an unlock code. Hope not be refunded this time since i hope it may work good. Wish me luck.
Rgds,
Hi, guys. I have the same problem i've purchased atrix without contract in the at&t retail store, they e-mailed me the unlock code, but the code is wrong i said it to them, they were surprised and e-mailed me another one and it is wrong too they (in the att store) said, that either of them should work and they don't know what to do. i still cant use my sim card. At&t sim was never used in that phone. is it important to have att sim inserted even once? and what to do with the phone?

At Last!!!!
Hello Folks,
at last i managed to solve it. Flashed 1FF-olympus-user-2.3.4-4.5.91-110625-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P011.sbf back and got the same: unsuccesfull unlock. Then flashed the baseband Retail Brazil Radio.sbf and enter the unlocking code from at&t and Voila... unlocked!!!
Thank you all. Let me quickly get into Aura
Hello!
Junior
I'm also from Brazil and I am having the same problem!
Spend more details on how you achieved this miracle! if you can make the files available used would be great!
I'm with version 2.3.4

I'm a N00B, but I've spent close to 30 hours reading up on posts the past three days. I have the same problem as stated in the original post... even my AT&T sim results in a request for the unlock code now.
I started with an AT&T Atrix. I unlocked the boot loader, put CWM recovery on, put Alien v4 ROM on...then the next day AT&T called me with my unlock code for international use. When I put a new sim in it asked for the code, but did not accept it "Network unlock result unsuccessful" Two other sims just immediately went to "Subsidy Lock ..." statement without asking for the unlock code... then my AT&T sim stopped working, and went to asking for an unlock code right away. Phone also will not pick up any signal, nor connect to any networks
I have entered many codes many times, and not circumvented the error, nor permanently locked it...
My next steps are to install the Gingerbread 2.3 ROM available here: https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/49191?start=0&tstart=0
Then use RSD lite to flash the AT&T 4.5.91 firmware available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944
After which I am hoping I can enter the unlock code, then re-unlock the boot loader, and flash back to alien v4 ROM again.
Do you think this will work, or have any other better ideas?
Should I use RSD Lite to flash the original firmware .sbf file?
My best guess is that the unlocked boot loader is preventing the phone from carrier unlocking ???
Extra credit:
- any idea how the phone is not permanently frozen after entering unlock codes up to 50 times?
- Will I need to put CWM recovery on the phone again?
- Any idea how the AT&T sim stopped working (while still working fine in another phone)
Please help and I hope this post will help others...
the boot loader unlock .sbf was only 13 MB, but the original 4.5.91 AT&T firmware .sbf is 1.5 GB unzipped... is flashing this mega-file through RSD lite the way to get this operating, or warrantee returnable again from its present state of unlocked boot loader, and not accepting any sims? Thank You

FYI: when installing the MotoBlur Gingerbread 2.3 ROM I get a

any ideas? Thanks for your time on this...
Hello
Yesterday I loaded WP 7.5 Mango. According to different directions, and every time I'm out of range.
What I doing wrong? I use a turbo sim, because the phone has a lock on another carrier.
Before and after returning to the extent it is WM 6.5. Everything works fine.
Maybe someone had a similar problem?

but did your HD2 SIM unlocked or not? did your SIM card same provider as locked HD2?
you must first SIM unlock if you want use other SIM cards, unlock can be done only in WM6.5 and unlock code

My HD2 has a SIM lock, but I use "X-SIM/Turbo-SIM( card to unlock)
On WM 6.5 "X-SIM/Turbo-SIM works perfect bypasses SIM-lock
ok... i think this not work with WP7...

The answer is NO.
Sorry but the unlock code only works if you have another networks
sim in the phone until it's unlocked.
However the other networks sim card does NOT need to be active(activated).
Good luck.!
