[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Elpidio:
I just ordered one, we'll see how long it takes to get the code. I think it cost $6.44. I'm kinda skeptic because others are charging $24.99 and up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] el_venga:
the unlock code price depends on the service used. cheapest service is regular AT&T.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
I am curious too... I don't see a website, so I assume you have to contact him via XDA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sickchilly:
I gave them a shot. They failed and instantly refunded my money. FYI.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drees:
I think I used the same guy today. The whole unlock process took about 5 minutes, but setting up the time so both of us were online took a while because of the time zone difference (I believe he is from Romania)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] a_fuegon:
I am not sure why people are requesting access to PC's and or phones to unlock.

I thought the phones are unlocked via IMEI. Samsung has the unlock codes for the phones, which they provide to the network carrier that distributes the phone. That is how AT&T is able to provide the code. I have been unlocking phones with them for years. I am sure that other people are gaining access to this list or database and that is how they are able to find codes. I just had a Hercules unlocked 2 months ago by a local store and all they asked for was the IMEI of the phone. It took them 2 days and gave me 5 codes to try. The first worked. I too believe I have read that there is a device, hardware, that is used to obtain codes as well. I know nothing about this method/

I know the first gen Galaxy S phones were being unlocked via nv ram. The location for the newer gen Galaxy phones seems to have eluded many if not most so far.

I'm sure that when one of the XDA gurus gets wind of the unlock methods, they will share it here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] WallbrownF:
I just chatted with AT&T not too long ago and they told me that they couldn't give me the unlock code. I even gave them my IMEI#. She said it was because of some agreement. I thought I sent the transcript to myself, but it isn't in my email.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gorillaz1:
So what's the sure fire way to unlock? Not worrying about price.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] a_fuegon:
I don't know what they have told you but they have to give you the code if you are in good standing with them. There may be other restrictions, such as have the phone or acct for 3 months, etc.

Each time I call them for an unlock code, I get it. I may run into a rep that is reading off a script from a screen tell me that they cannot do that. I say fine, ty, have a nice day.

Redial and speak to the next agent and if that person has any clue on what they are doing, they give me the code right then and there.

The options have been stated here. You pick which suits you the best. GL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] addictedhacks:
Help me Please

I unlock Galaxy Notes alot and this is the second one that does this. As soon as it unlocks it looses all cellular network and wont activate with any sim, not even att. I have tried apns (restoring and creating) Restoring with Odin and nothing works. Its as if its network bricked. The imei is there and original baseband. Someone please help...:(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
What number did you call? I called the number shown in my bill, TWICE, and both CSR told me NO UNLOCK CODE for the Note because "...Samsung never provided to them..."
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thenellt:
Although I can see why you would a want a free unlock, paying 25 bucks for a normal unlock from any of the larger websites that you can find through google works just fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
I called AT&T 3 times so far for an unlock code on my old iPhone 4S and my Note and they told me all 3 times that they can't give me an unlock code because my 2 year contract was still in effect.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zphelj:
Just called AT&T for mine and was denied. I was told it was an exclusivity issue then told it was a systems issue. Bottom line, not available until a certain future date which does not appear to be related to my contract date. It's 120 days after purchase of the replacement device in my case.

Sadly I paid full price to replace a broken phone that was unlocked and now I'm learning I can't unlock the replacement until this future date. Another AT&T customer service fail.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
Yeah, this is another thing I don't understand. If a customer paid FULL PRICE for a phone, there is no subsidy given on the carrier part..so why can't the phone be UNLOCKED?

I am sure they still make money on unsubsidized phone. I mean, I bought my International Note, unlocked, brand new for $600. AT&T is selling unsubsidized phone for $799! :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madman604:
canadagsm.ca has the unlocked phone for sale for $539
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
Wow....price of the Note surely has gone down a lot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] geekempire:
I used cellunlocker.net to get my Note unlocked, the normal US$24.99 charge. But I was running PARANOIDANDROID rom and it would not accept the unlock codes. I keep getting the error "Connection problem or invalid MMI code". Once I went back to the stock At&t rom and then entered the code it worked as expect.

Oh, and wanted to add that it took 52 minutes to get the unlock code from cellunlocker.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jhduff:
Does anyone know if the guy on Ebay who charges $6.99 to unlock the Note by remotely accessing your PC is legitimate? Why does he have to remotely access your PC? Has anyone tried this before. TIA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
He accesses your pc while your phone is connected. In the old days you used to go to a link and download a program that finds the relevent file on your phone and changes it to turn off the network lock. But people cheated and passed along the software hurting business. So now the unlocking service comes to you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jhduff:
so is it safe to use? I am kind of hesitant about the remote access...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sweetboy02125:
I don't think it's safe because I can remotely send a virus to that computer and run in the background without the owner knowing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] onlineunlocks:
So nice when you see people talking about you:) . I think I am the guy you are talking about (At least I sell the remote unlock on ebay ), if you looked in my feedback from ebay you could have seen that a lot of people bought the unlock and nobody gave bad feedback .With the unlock I provide on ebay or on my website onlineunlcoks.com , I am not trying to infect nobody pc with viruses, lets be serious I could not do that more then 1-2 times because especially on ebay that would be reflected in my feedback. This is an "unlocking service the comes to you." like rangercaptain said, and this way can be sure the unlock will work good because I am doing it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] panday74:
so does it worked while on a custom rom or i will have to put back to stock ICS?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] onlineunlocks:
Depends on the rom, some custom roms do not allow entering codes for selecting diagnostig mode(diag)

Try this codes, if are working, then can be done on your custom rom:

2.Type *#7284# then choose USB > Modem

3: Type: *#9090# and choose the option 1.usb
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jhduff:
After much debate, I decided to give the ebay guy a shot!

I would like to vouch that the 7.99 unlock on ebay works!!!!!!!! saved me $17 bucks!!!! thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RIVANH:
wow really to me they send it in like 10 min
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chogau1:
Planning on buying an used note to use with my tmobile service, did anyone tried this yet? https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDEsImNvbS5oZWxyb3ouZ2FsYXh5c3VubG9jayJd

It says on the description that is works with the note...any testers, if it works i wont spend the extra bucks buying the phone already unlocked...thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] liftedzuki:
Benefits of unlocking?Mainly for t mobile users......

What about go phone sim cards? What ones would work? I know att go phone sim cards would work, what bout if its att carrier locked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mha1021:
I used the ebay unlock service for 6.99 and i recommend this guy. the whole process took a few minutes and that's it he told me that your phone is unlocked now and try another sim.. I put Tmobile sim, and it worked. thanks to him coz i really didn't want to spend $25 for an unlock code.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enelyam:
The reason why he ask people to connect to your pc via USB is because he has a dongle that is working as a jtag where he is at. Hes connecting to your pc because what you do is that basically the phone connected to the USB on your computers will act like theyre connected to his. The only difference is that its remotely done. And its done via DIAG. Hope i explained to you how it works...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ausmike:
Cant believe pple spend $300= 600$ on a phone and then SKIMP on 20$ for SAFEST and BEST UNLOCKING methods .... and risk @ some guy who canremote and do lot mroe damage to your PC and Phone ........... not to mention that your phone ( after uniocking ) cannt be UPGRADED and or install any updates....

So pay that 20$ or so , and send your IMEI number and get UNLOCKING done the SAFE'ST WAY ...........and NO I dopnt work for any unlocking service company ... nor anything else ,...............

just my 0.02c worth !.....................
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crutzulee:
I have used that program with my sgs 1. It worked great on that phone... I'm afraid that if you read the reviews, people are reporting that it has not been working with the note...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VoluntaryMan:
That's not very nice now is it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jhduff:
are you sure that you cannot upgrade after the unlocking using the ebay guy?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mha1021:
You should not comment on something, if you don't know anything about them(Computers, Phone).

And I actually paid $150 + tax for my GNOTE and If I can get my phone unlocked for $6.99, why the hell would i spend $20-40 for an unlock code.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ferraripassion:
Guys just buy an unlock code it's the safest and easiest way to unlock. Those who claim to do it with USB cable, these are meant to be done at the store, but they share the USB device over net and do it, its complicated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pTeronaut:
The concern is that we are sending our IMEI to a country where IMEI cloning is not uncommon, and those cloned IMEIs are being used by person or persons unknown with criminal intent.

Whilst the majority of Unlocking services are legit, those who are aware of the cloning more than the legal service are cautious in handing that number over to an unknown.Many people feel safe in the own computer's security, either by the software that they use, or by using a beater computer that they could easy wipe in case of an intrusion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] strangetator:
i called them today myself and they told me that unlock codes for the note wont be available till the august 19th cause it is a new device.. least that was she said there unlocking tool told them
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chils41:
They wait 6 months from the date they launch any phone on the carrier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] awwaiid:
unlock

I tried cellunlocker.com, and they refunded my money because they didn't have my IMEI in their DB. What's up with that?

I've since started doing research on other unlock methods... but one of the more recent popular methods (editing nv_data.bin) doesn't seem to apply to the i717 - that file isn't in /efs like it is on some other phones (apparently because of the snapdragon-related chipset/modem). Any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chils41:
Thts strange, Cause i Unlocked 3 ATT notes so far from cellunlocker,com and got it unlocked them all within hour and half.

I tell you what Its less than month wait now, till ATT start giving Unlock codes.

Save your $25.

One more thing is check out my this thread here.

I cant Unlock anymore phones, but guy name Kachman unlocks the phones*.

* he has some different method of Unlocking phone.

He will need to access your USB port connected to your PC, via USB Sharing / VPN some like tht.

So make sure you use some precaution! He dont really access any data but just friendly advice.

And I keep reading people says he has unlocked my phone via USB port sharing.

Few people also PMed me that he charges $10 to unlock Samsung Phones.

Good Luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rajalm29:
yes he unlocked my phone Skyrocket for $10.Cheaper than other websites.

And he dont really get into any computer, he uses USB sharing software and share your PCs USB port via VPN.and does his unlock via his Unlock servers/boxes.I paid him via PP as Services to somebody elses account, with messages this is for Kachman.So he uses legit erver/unlock box to unlock the phone.But yes this makes your thread not FREE but still $10 is not bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Nolenm04:
Just ordered mine from simunlock...paid like 6.50 or something now waiting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] awwaiid:
Your wish of luck must have worked -- I am now unlocked! I used ovidiu1306 from ebay (who posted earlier in this thread) for like $8. They did a remote-usb setup and now I'm unlocked! There was a tense moment there when we thought it might not work, probably because of bouncing through VirtualBox (I don't have a single real windows machine, all linux 'round here). But after a few tries it worked... just a timing issue with the extra layer of indirection. Before we started I also flashed back to the original android to ensure that those #* codes work.

YAY!!

Now off to flash T-Mobile modem and see how the speed is.

international roaming charges as of july 2012 canada at&t

Omniphil:

i was very close to canadian border last week in up up state ny (i live in nj...close to nyc) and i had turned off my gnote to change the battery. When i turned it on, a text from at&t came thru (i had already been there 2 and a half days). the text was this: "int'l rate of $15.36 PER MB (u read that right) applies in this location. To reduce data charges, international plans are available @ blah blah blah..." !!!!

Omg! i was ready to stream a tv show on 4g (have 4gb plan with tethering)...so i called and nicely explained that although i was very near the border (8 miles away to be exact)...i was NOT IN CANADA! the rep was very nice and knew her business. i offered to call from a land line to prove where i was exactly (she said not needed). I had, at that point, already used about 35mb of data. I was sick. they said not to worry, that once the bill comes out they will call me to reverse any international charges, AND that they have ways to tell that i was not in canada. Ok. they haff dehr vays....

So next monday is d-day for that bill and phone call. Apparently i caught a canadian tower in my data adventures...will let everyone know what happens.

Want to re-lock your bootloader for some reason?

Want to get back to the state it were before unlocking?

Want to get rid of RELOCKED and instead have LOCKED (OOW) (1.08.0099) or LOCKED (1.09.0099) again for Downgrading and get warranty back?

Want to unlock bootloader again without data wipe?

Want to downgrade to an earlier RUU?

Control your bootloader now as you wish!

* Easily switch between LOCKED (OOW), RELOCKED or UNLOCKED without losing data.

* Set Superversion

What is Superversion:

All RUUs have main software number versions. You can not downgrade to lower versions. In the forums there is a fix where you have to edit and reflash your misc partition.(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1445867)

Now you need no hex editor anymore. Just chose Superversion option and the update.zip will do anything for you.

UPDATE:

* Added option for Superversion

[HTC Wildfire S] 4D3:
this looks amazing!

thanks
[HTC Wildfire S] jmz:
i don't see why it wouldn't work with cdma. It pulls your misc partition img. Its not like it has a misc.img included and flashing that. So, I think it would work on CDMA just fine. For that matter, any device really.
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
Right. It dumps the misc partition to a file. the "bltool" looks at specific offsets and only changes what it has to change. the rest is kept as is and the partition is dumped back.

unless CDMA phones use the different offsets in the misc.img (which is highly improbable) it works with cdma, too.

Can this be done with a HTC Wildfire Buzz ?

Edit: It works on the Buzz but it doesn't get S-On back
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
It's not intended to.
[HTC Wildfire S] hacktrix2006:
Well i used it and it works well under the HTC Wildfire (Buzz) Although the superversion still just shows unlocked. I have tried it myself and no harm came to the Hboot at all.

With S-On though i have managed with a little bit of adb shell magic by typing this into adb shell as root i.e #

echo -e 'at@simlock=7,1\r' > /dev/smd0

and then rebooting the phone.
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
This tool will just change the misc partition. It sets the bootloader lock state.

the superversion option changes the main version to 0.0.0.0 so that any ruu can be installed.
[HTC Wildfire S] hacktrix2006:
Thanks for info at least you know it will work on the Wildfire (buzz) the little brother to Wildfire S (marvel)

I installed the drivers and everything worked fine. I then rooted it. No Problems. Then I go to install a recovery with Kindle Fire Utility. I press 5 and then enter. It said it installed it and would restart. It restarted into the yellow triangle and now it says device not recognized. I tried to run the Unbrick utility but my PC no longer recognizes my KF. Please help, I bought it today and immediately started rooting. I rooted my Evo without a problem but Idk what to do.

[Kindle Fire General] rkeenan:
Ok, I have it unbricked. I just need to figure out how to get it to recognize my device
[Kindle Fire General] ammubarak:
your KF is OK. Configure your PC to use android composite driver to get adb working and use the following commands:

fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

or

fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000

then fastboot reboot
[Kindle Fire General] rkeenan:
Yeah, I had just regular ADB drivers before and then I saw in the unbrick thread to use ADB composite. That fixed all of my problems. Thank you. I now have ICS on my KF
