Does anyone know where/how I can get my phone sim unlocked? I tried CellUnlocker and another service, both of which failed to unlock my phone from Telus and my friends phone from Bell.

Edit: Have they blocked retrieval of unlock codes for this phone?

Hi,

Since Samsung recommends returning your Note 7, no matter if it's a replacement unit or not, most unlocking services won't take orders for this handset, since it's not safe at all.
They're all accepting the orders but aren't able to find the unlock code. I was wondering if anyone has been successful in unlocking their Note 7 post recall? If so, who did you use?

Did you join just to troll people who plan on keeping their Note 7?

"It's not safe at all"...

Actually it's very safe. Far safer than driving your car to work in the morning. Safer than even taking the bus.

Though I guess the internet says it will tun into a small-yield thermonuclear device if you don't return it....

I tried getting an unlock code from Samsung a good month ago and said they will provide me with one within 4-5 business days.

They completely disregarded my request now. I doubt you'll get one since Samsung wants you to return it

laugh Im still waiting for samsung to give me a call and let me know what to do with a second hand bought note 7. Not that I care what they say, im keeping it but since they have wrote all my info down and told me would call me within 2-4 days it has not happened. Been over 2 weeks now. So much for them to care.
As for the OP, sorry no help from me as i've got mine unlocked.

Try:

http://www.imei-unlocker.com/samsung-galaxy-note-7-unlock

The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in not banned by any means anywhere. There is only a voluntary manufacturer recall and people are NOT obligated to return it. Don't be fool by those iSheep that come in here telling you to return it.

I've used this service and it works 100% They do take 2 or 3 days to send you the unlock codes.

Good Luck! ?

Did you use that service for your Note 7 AFTER the recall? I just used their "FAST" delivery service, and they came back after 1 day stating "no unlock code could be found"

DON'T use cellunlocker.net. It took them about 4 days to come up with a code that didn't work. After being forced to upload several videos of me trying the unlock code and proving that my phone wasn't rooted or running a custom ROM, they still refused to issue a refund claiming my phone was modified. It's been 17 days and they still can't come up with a working code. Avoid them like the plague!

Its almost impossible to an unlock code. The reason i say almost incase their is another way (through imei etc)
I spend 45 days trying most unlock companies, boxes etc. Nothing worked. I had a guy searching every place possible for me for 12 days could not find an unlock code in any database.
The easiest way is to use the service provider the phone is locked to. Another way to go to Note7alliance and to see if possible to change imei, with that you may be able to unlock the phone as well.
I know this is an old thread an old thread but this is for someone new in case they stumble on this thread
