[Q] Nexus S Unlock? [Solved]

---

Is it possible to SIM unlock a Nexus S that's locked to T-Mobile without asking T-Mobile for/buying an unlock code? Would the SGS unlock method work considering the Nexus S is part of the Galaxy S family?
Thanks

The NS is already sim unlocked

From what I understand they are all unlocked regardless of whether you bought it outright or under contract.

Hi
Would this apply to the Samsung-Google Nexus phone on deal at Best Buy. The website (sorry I cannot post external links) lists this phone as Samsung - Google Nexus S Mobile Phone - Black (AT&T) and comes with a 2-yr contract

I will be in the US for a temp period; my plan is to buy a contract phone and pay the termination fee when I am done with my stay.
I need to ensure that the unit I buy can be used in India when I return.

thanks for your help!

Cheers

As long as you buy a model that is compatible with the network in India you will be fine.

Hi Rem3Dy

thanks for your prompt response.

Would this be true even for the Motorola Atrix which is being sold on ATT website?

The Nexus S I bought from Best Buy for ATT shows "Locked" in the Bootloader. Is there no unlock mechanism?

this is just the bootloader, this can be unlocked very easily by following the sticky to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery and anything else you wish to do developerlike.
