i just bought a used atrix off CL yesterday , im trying to get it unlocked so i can use tmobile.


already tried russian motofan forum for unlock code, no luck there.

i called ATT yesterday, the lady told me to use the att.com/deviceunlock form . ive put in the request, still saying its pending.

now i just bought the unlock from here, http://www.ebay.com/itm/320884234263?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 . still waiting for them to send it to me, i dont know if they can find it.



i was wondering which online vendor or service yall used to unlock carrier

thanks

Mine was unlocked by AT&T. Just a quick call to their customer support, answer a few questions, give the IMEI, wait a bit, and they gave me the code. They even wanted to give me instructions on how to use the code, but I was way ahead of them on that. :D

Oh yeah, well... Sometimes you have to wiggle your way out a little. Say you got the phone as a gift from a relative and you don't know their number. Or something like that. They might refuse to give you the code anyway, but it's worth a shot.

i thought about that, but the rep didnt even give me a chance for " story time " LOL, ill see if the ebay seller can find the code , otherwise ill let my friend who has a ATT account call them for me

Call AT&T again, you will get a different rep and a different attitude every time. Chances are that one of them will just give you the code. I got lucky and my second call ended in success. :good:
