I found one that works on Ebay, I got it unlocked myself, it is a bit pricey at 55 bucks but hey at least it works and I no longer have a brick.

i was talking to them and it turns out that the official unlock code from SONY is actually very expensive, in fact they say they are surprised anyone can do it for 40 bucks as it is apparently below cost :S

anyway look for Sony XPERIA ion LTE (AT&T) unlock code on ebay!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
Was this just a carrier unlock or full bootloader unlock?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] maixi105:
I cannot find it on ebay, can you PM me the link. Is it the official unlock code from Sony ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Shadoe_Lance:
How long ago did you have yours unlocked. There is no one on Ebay unlocking the AT&T Xperia Ion. Only the Rogers Ion.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alkanaft:
Sure. My hands are itching to unlock. :)

i dont understand, if you look up xperia Ion unlock code, there are 2 returns for the search and this is the second one ....

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
I have placed order on this site

http://www.unlock-network.com prise is 49.99$ if they can unlock my phone I will write here.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] z0bug33:
... it says $62.99 USD, and its spelt price not prise
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Shadoe_Lance:
Just paid the seller on ebay. Will let everyone know if he can get the unlock. This is what the seller had to say about the signature server:

"yes, we don't work through the signature server. I have been led to believe that the signature server may be down permanently as Sony has fixed the hacking exploit that allowed us to even gain access to it to begin with.

Thus the only solution now is to lodge a claim with Sony to buy the code from them."
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bryan858:
Just search "Sony ion unlock" and it will come up. I just did and its there. Wonder why rogers code is so much cheaper and why it came out sooner.

Anyway,

Put me down for the groupbuy. #5: Bryan858

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] accts:
I wouldn't try myself - Postal Mail ??? Oh Please !!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Virus_UTECH:
we wont know if it work until like a week pass :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Shadoe_Lance:
Actually the seller says he will send the sim unlock by email, but the others by postal mail.. I've already paid him by PayPal and hope to see if it's actually legit. We will see.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bryan858:
Its an ebay policy that anything purchase must be shipped or mailed. Its just going by the policy. I've received codes via email in the past with no issues. Not from this particular seller. But others and they all state it will mailed. And emailed.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] z0bug33:
the seller emailed the code to me last monday so..... I don't know if he sent it to me via snail mail but frankly it doesn't matter to me, as the code worked!

I think they have to like say that because its ebay policy against virtual items... too hard to verify delivery
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Shadoe_Lance:
Just received a refund from Cellcorner.com. Reason for refund : unlock code not found. Let's hope the guy on Ebay can get it for me.

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

So if he emailed it to you last Monday, did it work?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] z0bug33:
uh huh, that's why I'm sharing it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] maixi105:
The price now is now $59.99. The strange is I see 5 sold including me on the guy on Ebay but do not see any feedback about the unlock.

PS: I think the other 4 people are from XDA, too :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bryan858:
Wow, price is going up! I was hoping it would go the other way.

What's the status on our group buy fellas? or did everyone buy it on ebay already. Ahahah.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Shadoe_Lance:
Yup. Purchased mine from him before the price went up. Hopefully will get the unlock code soon, it's been only three days now. Anyone else buy from him on XDA? What was the average turn around time?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] z0bug33:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] apkraven:
seller said it won't unlock the bootloader. he sounded confident.

---------- Post added at 08:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

how does it come you say about the seller as the third person, if you're the seller?

"This credit card transaction will appear on your bill as "PAYPAL *Z0BUG33"." sounds fishy, please explain. if you're a legit seller, i guess a lot of guys will come, but right now i think that looks not right.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xyberknight:
I have a bi-weekly follow up with an escalation supervisor set up with AT&T regarding my unlock code, and when the xperia ion(if ever) will become valid to unlock, as they list right now, words from sony mobile communications to at&t's system is the device is locked due to exlusivity deal with at&t up to but not exceeding calendar year of release. So it should be before the end of a year. I told the supervisor that the device is out in other parts of the world now, and the exclusivity deal should be reclaimed, due to this, and codes should be available, but even with Rogers and China also having it, still claims exclusivity on it...gotta love Sony for trying to claim exclusivity on something and still release it to other markets of the world.

this is a surprising turn of events what do u have to say for ur self z0bug33?????
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] maixi105:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bryan858:
Wow, he raised the price to 80$ due to back log?? I really hope you guys get your codes or money back soon as this guy must be trying to take as many orders as he can for whatever people are willing to pay.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
What do you mean xLoud stopped working? It just don't stop itself.

What did you do with your phone? Any mods/custom stuff?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ManthanRB:
Nope bro just tried Cyanogen Timescape for 5 hrs thn back out to Stock ICS with clean install
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hsrbnr:
Try reinstalling rom.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ManthanRB:

ANyother solution?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tokaides:
yep, try reinstalling the rom as per hsrbnr's suggestion. Or try a different rom, I'm using RealICS and Xloud works fine.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ManthanRB:
I'm on stock rom.

And I did a clean install,actually xloud is inversed. When I turn it off its working.if I turn it on not working.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ARNOB:
here's what u need to do..

1. connect ur headphones

2. open fm radio

3. while playing it, go to settings > sound > xloud (turn off then on)

[Motorola Atrix 2] shardul.phatak:
One of my frnd has galaxy s2

n m so damn jelus about it that he is gettin tons of ROMs n even customized effects r freakin gud

They r gettin each part configurable while installing d ROM! :mad:

y our A2 is suffering from such ignorance
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Reading this was like watching a train wreck.

Clearly, you have no understanding regarding the ATRIX 2's capabilities or lack thereof. I smell a troll... :eek:
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
He is not a troll... I have seen him here a good bit... a little new to the A2 though.

To the OP.

We have a locked bootloader so we can only do certain things, and we have a limited number of developers, since this is not a real popular phone.

If you don't like it go get a used SGS 2.

I just got my SGS 3, about 3 weeks ago now, so that I can get all those things I that I want. I also have the A2, and I am still doing dev work on it, becuase I like a ton of the things it provides that the SGS 3 just does not provide, like webtop, and some of the battery life, and the community here, as well as the devs in have to be pretty talented to get what we have gotten even with a totally locked down phone.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Maybe I jumped on this guy's post with some degree of defense. So to everyone, my apologies. I think what ticked me off was the inference I believe he was making to the effect that (we) A2 owners can't do what other phones are doing due to some such "ignorance".

Though, it is difficult to determine that was, in fact, the implication, because of (as PRichardson referred to such writing ineptitude) his "indecipherable vernacular". At any rate, I know the devs here have done incredible work with the A2, and I know everyone on this forum can attest to that as well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] tmease1:
Getting mad about the A2 and posting about it is not going to help anyone. We are all frustrated with Motorola. My advice is to buy a secondary phone. It helps relieve some of the stress. I have a Samsung infuse that i switch back and forth from. It does help to have another phone on hand.
[Motorola Atrix 2] okachowwa:
Now let us get the best scientists of the world to decode what I just read!
[Motorola Atrix 2] shardul.phatak:
first of all a big "SORRY" if i offended any1 :crying:

1) i know what A2 is capable of..... & i do not regret of buying it (wil never)

2) i know who has better hardware (GS2 or A2) as i'm into core electronic field.

3) i do not underestimate our DEVs .... i mean they have done a great work :angel: (i owe them hundreds of dollors ;) )

Thanks for this :o

If it is all about LOCKED BOOTLOADER then v shud beat MOTO persons to death :mad:

fyi ... I hate GS2

i compared both for almost 1.5 months to buy A2 .... & m happy for it

jst cnt bare frnd teasing me over it :rolleyes:

& i seriously owe hundreds of $ to our devs :p

Sorry once again
[Motorola Atrix 2] lukensteinz:
Interesting mix of opinions here.

I'm new to the Atrix 2, and only other androids I've had is a Defy and some Huawei thing. Which means I'm pretty used to locked bootloaders and have come to take it as a blessing of sorts.

It's a bummer that we can't run a custom kernel, but is it really that much of a hassle? (I used to run linux back when redhat was new and kde was stepping up to take on gnome. Ick, never did like kde bloat, and then gentoo came about :) )

I do understand the bonuses of a custom kernel.

But I've also bricked the Huawei to the point of no return because I didn't understand the android environment or flashing.

So to me the locked bootloader is a saving grace.

And I've seen what the devs working with the Defy have done. Including ICS on the GB kernel, plus 2nd init.

Which kind of raises a question.

2nd init on the Atrix 2 at all? Possible? Because that is one great work around!
[Motorola Atrix 2] vinamilk:
Until now A2's BL still locked and if you don't want it blows away other phones when being unlocked tomorow, plz do not make any comparision.
[Motorola Atrix 2] prasannapmv:
A2 is great phone when comparing price and performance. Hardware of this phone is capable of doing wonders, its Motorola who is taking all of us back. I hope Motorola will undergo changes that are needed to revive its past glory in new ownership of Google.

About devs I can say they have given their 110% on everything, number of MODS and ROMS available even after having a locked bootloader is remarkable.

[Intercept General] Boruchb:
I cannot access my samsung intercept phone with 2.2 via my windows NEW 7 usb. I did so with the same device and cable on a previous pc running XP.

When connected, it beeps but the PC says there usb driver is wrong but I have tried all sorts oof usb drivers with no success.

Both samsung and HP (pc vendor) point their fingers at each other.

Any ideas?
[Intercept General] BudDroid:
I used to have an intercept months ago and for a minute i had ur same problem. Try some of these options

1. Download samsung phone usb drivers.

2. Get a new usb cord.

3. Dwnload pdaNet from the market and send the drivers from ur phone to ur computer from pdaNet. ( pdaNet will ask if u need drivers) This is actually the way i got my intercept to be recognized by my win7 computer once i bought a new usb cord.

Hope things work out for ya

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shadow12347:
Hello everyone,

My sgh i777 (running one of the UCLE5 semi v# ROMS, can't remember which one xD, on siyah v3.4.3) is having a strange problem. What happened was, I put my phone on the charger on my desk, and my sister had a friend over and were messing around. Well I found my phone later in the day on the floor, and it seemed like it was more scratched then. It was still plugged into the charger at the time so I tried to turn it on. However, when I turn it on, the grey battery screen with the loading circle shows up for less than a second, and the screen turns off. Then it will do that again, flashing this screen until I unplug it from the charger. Not matter what I do, it will not get past this screen, and actually, after the screen flashes a bunch of times, you wil stop seeing the battery screen but merely a flash of light on the touchkeys and maybe the screen. I am pretty sure it is not a problem with the charger itself, and I think it may be a problem with the battery. However, my friend had an issue with his Droid (first one) where the charging port on the phone was broken and he had to use an external battery charger to charge the battery, and then it would work fine. To me, the port seems like it is not damaged, and since when I found my phone on the floor it was really hot, I really think the battery just died. I am also fairly certain that this problem is not a software issue, considering I have not tweaked anything on my phone for a few days now, and since it was working just fine before I found it on the floor. I would appreciate any feedback that you guys can give me because, like everyone else, this phone is my baby :P

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
Try pulling battery for a few. put it back in. try to get into CWM and wipe cache and dalvik.

Who knows how that happened. But if you have CWM or D/L mode, your fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cicatriz63:
I had this exact same problem on my phone (minus ending up on the floor part). I think it is from the battery overheating. Pull the battery and let it sit for a few. I had to let mine sit out for almost 4 hours before it turned back on. It may not take that long but i would leave it out for at least an hour or 2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shadow12347:
Thanks for your feedback! Yeah I left the battery out of the phone overnight and when I woke up I tried it again and it still did the same thing :/

I want to get an extended battery anyway (I think I'm going to order the qcell one) and if that fixes the problem that'd be great, but if it isn't a battery problem and it could be fixed now I would love to hear how so I am not out a phone until the new battery arrives ;D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raikol:
Will your phone turn on when not plugged in?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shadow12347:
No it won't even show the battery screen when it isn't plugged in. It only does that with the charger. Also it won't even have the flicker of the touchkeys, just nothing haha.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raikol:
Try to get another fully charged battery from a friend and see if phone will turn on, or if you have an external charger, charge up a battery and see if it turns on
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shadow12347:
Ok I will try that as soon as possible
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shadow12347:
I tried a different battery from a different phone (although it was still a samsung phone and the battery fit right and everything) and the same thing happened >,< nothing would happen unplugged, but as soon as I put it on the charger, the touchkeys would flash, and the screen would flicker at certain intervals. Unfortunately I think this is a more serious problem :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
Same happen with my friend I9100. Power Controller gone. Only service center will help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] srichachasauce:
Seems like your USB ports are bridged. I had this exact problem. If you're under Samsung's warranty, send it to them and they'll replace it. If not, MobileTechVideos could fix it for you.... Though if you're on a custom ROM then I assume you must put it to stock before sending it out to Samsung...:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shadow12347:
I got it to work haha. Go figure the one thing I did not try fixed it. -___- I was reading through some other threads and found a guy with a similar problem and he said that he left the battery IN the phone but left it UNPLUGGED. Well I did this overnight and sure enough this morning it worked xD
