Hi, I'm also from Indonesia and got my AT&T Moto X 2 weeks ago.
I've been searching through this forum for the recommended unlock site. Tried to contact them and confirm their delivery time before deciding which one I would place my order to. Most of the sites replied that there are some issues with the AT&T unlock service and they would need several days to come back with the code.
I then decided to contact AT&T customer service and request the unlock code for my Moto X, got it for free
If your Moto X is a non-contract device, maybe you want to give it a try while waiting from cellunlocker to get back to you. Good luck !

@deviantartjr, I have sent a PM to you.
Maybe it helps.
Good Luck!
Best regards

so they just give it to you the unlock code for free ? but can you handle all the bloatware thing's without you rooted it ? cause I'm thinking about getting iPhone 5s, cause I can feel there's too much going on with android device nowadays, and is your at&t moto x is non-rooted version ? and how was it, do you feel any lag so far ?

Yes, I told them that I bought the phone when I was in the US for business trip and used it with AT&T Gophone prepaid card. I'm now back to Indonesia and would like to use it with local simcard and they gave me the unlock code
I got mine rooted using jcase's pnwmymoto and use the steps in the other thread to protect the root after OTA update. I can say that bloatware in AT&T Moto X is minimal, only myATT, visual voicemail, and AT&T phonebook. I can't uninstall them but I disabled myATT & visual voicemail. only AT&T Phonebook is the annoying one sometimes it will try to connect to AT&T but still manageable.
I don't feel any significant lag at the moment, I can feel slight lag after installing xposed framework but the ability to customize the phone is worth that slight lag.

Calling Options
Hi,
Could someone who already possessed this phone take a look for me and tell me whether it has original sip (internet calling) option enabled? It should be in the phone menu and look like in the attached picture. Thanks.

You can refer to this thread :
Tutorial: How To Protect and Restore Root for an OTA Update
Credits to both JCase & Dark9781
you can only do it if your Moto X has not been updated with the latest OTA, or if you purchase a new one make sure you check the System Version first.

Hi there. i bought a Moto X from motorola's website by choosing ATT with no contract. How did you get the code? Did you call them? to whom did you talk? actuallly i talked to customer care regarding this unlock issue, they told me that i have to activate the phone first which means $36 at first bill and wait for 60 days to meet the requirements mentioned at that page www .att .com/ deviceunlock/ client/ en_US
The customer care also said that they can't unlock it since i am not a ATT customer and don't have SSN.
I am stuck here. How can I get the code free? initially i thougt they would give me it free. Maybe i talked to wrong people.

Hello
I apologize if my English is not good, but try to explain my problem
A few days ago I buy a Motorola Droid 3 on Ebay.
my seller said that Verizon is not blocked.
I received a phone but it asks for unlock code.
I know it's wrong that I bought on Ebay, but in Europe you can not found this, end I want this item and lot.
in this case how to get unlock code?
and I tried ebay, but all gave me the same code 72555264
last option would be to find someone who is subscribed to Verizon, and ask the code
If anyone is willing pay $ 50
Seem scary to me as I am having mine sent to me a few day. Hopefully you can get it unlocked very soon. Let me know who can do it for you.
no one wants to help me
There has been people saying that Verizon blocked SIM unlock, or at least changed the code with a recent update. You'll have to try one of those Unlocking Sim cards

PM your email address, I may help you get the unlock code from Verizon.
Let us now if you find a solution.
Not sure, but I think you need to have the phone active on a verizon account when you get the unlock code, so it will work on your phone. The line you use to get the code will need to be in good standing for approximately six months before they'll hand over the code, just fyi.

You'll need to find someone who has a line on Verizon who is willing to help you. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

Hi again! Finally I found someone, Verizon subscribed. He gave to them all the details of the phone and they send the unlock code. But, surprise! It s not work!! What to do now! It s possible something like this ?? There are two kind of codes or other things that I dont know?? Please, if you know some other informations...help me!
The phone may need to be activated on that line because the phone needs to communicate with Verizon using the unlock code to prompt them to actually unlock it on their end. I recently unlocked one of my T-Mobile phones which I gave to a family member to use on AT&T, and this was the case. It's just another step they can perform over the phone using your info. If you can skype or Google Talk with your friend while they call Verizon, they can tell him any steps he must take with the phone to activate it on his line, then he'll message/tell you what to do. Then once activated, enter the unlock code and it should work. After it is successfully unlocked, he can go ahead and change back to his phone on his account by activating it the same way.
Kinda sucks to have to do this, but I think that is your best bet.
I tried, but without any result. It seems that my friend gave me not the correct code, and now no longer respond. in this case I'll donate it, because it not stand to see him. but maybe there is someone enthusiastic to help.

I have the same question as OP. I am about to order a MotoX and will be traveling in 1 month.
Who is RipCo?
For Motorola are more services available,there is a cheaper service that does not work for all phones,but tere is a service for not found phones ,which even if is a bit more expensive ( around 12$) should unlcok your phone

Let me see if I understood correctly, you bought your Moto X from motorola's website (in the Design Yours section), customized your phone and at the end you choosed Carrier -> ATT -> No Contract (that's 499$) and you got it to work in your country?

Thanks a lot!
Just got myself an AT&T Moto X. I am in India right now and dont see any option to e-mail the guys at AT&T. For some reason they want me to register. Can anyone help me out with this? I need to SIM unlock the phone. How do I reach AT&T via e-mail?
This is the AT&T International (+1 916 843 4685) phone number.Can call that 1-2 times if you can and try to convince you to give you a code,but lately seems they do not give codes unless you have or had a contract with them and use the form from their website to request for it. If that is not working can just buy an unlock code should be around 12$

Unlocking the Note 4

Is this truly only done by carrier?
I read the terms that the phone needs 2 months service and 2 months bills paid for the carrier to give the unlock code. How do the websites do it for $20, is it just employees doing this and selling it?
What did I miss in my hours of searching google and forums
This is the first unlock thread I found:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2918400
---------- Post added at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 PM ----------
I'll keep looking.
This is the app I used to Sim unlock my note 4's. It worked on all 4 of my note 4's. I had them unlocked within about 10 minutes time. Worked flawlessly, is permanent, easy to use and is the safest way to unlock a note 4. After unlocking, you can uninstall the app. Here is the link....
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...app&pcampaignid=APPU_1_v_DfVP2jN4TZoATt7YDwDA
Edit...I also used this app on my note 4's straight out of the box without having to worry about activation times and what not.
Cheers!
I bought my unlock code on eBay for under $19. I had the code in two days.
Thanks for all the replies. My question still remains though, I know I can go buy the unlock code anywhere, is this representatives from the company using their access to do it or is there a way we can do it without the middleman ( paying $20 for the code )
I know the older phones it is very easy to unlock, just wondering if we can unlock the note4 without the carrier or by buying the code
I have had a ton of messages lately asking about unlocking the note 4. It seems the link above is no longer active. So here you go my friends, here is the updated unlock link http://imei-unlocker.com/

I just call T-mobile. My phone is full paid. In 1 day, I get the email. I put it in a foreign SIM or Verizon SIM and it work. My 2 phones are now unlock.

Right on. Although I have a T-Mobile note 4, I do not, and have never had a T-Mobile contract. I do not even live in the U.S. either. lol. I just wanted a T-Mobile version note 4 because of its extensive development of ROMs and I know a lot of developers who develop ROMs for this version note 4. So I couldn't call T-Mobile because I did not buy my phone from them, I bought it from a 3rd party dealer and T-Mobile told me when I did call, that because I was not and had never been a T-Mobile customer, that they would not help me at all. I paid for my phone in full, outright, without contract.
Cheers!

[Q] Unlocked At&t Moto X not connecting to new carrier

I sent my At&t Moto X 2014 to get unlocked and when I received it and was told that it was unlocked, I took it to T-Mobile to get a SIM card to finally use it and it didn't want to connect to the carrier. It keeps saying to try again at a later time but the T-Mobile representative says that it may not have been unlocked right. Does anyone know what I can do or if it has happened to anyone else?

Ive never heard of sending a phone somewhere to be unlocked. Generally you either request an unlock code from your carrier or buy one from one of the many sim unlocking websites out there.
Have you contacted the place you sent your phone? That should be your first step. How much did it cost?

It was a cell phone store that usually repairs phones or unlocks them and so on, unfortunately I got out of T-Mobile too late to go back to the phone place. It cost $45 to unlock, and by seeing all these threads, I can already tell I overpaid.

Ouch! That's extortion! Unlock codes are usually around $5 from a third party site, or if the phone is off contract your carrier will give you the code for free. All you do is put in the new sim, type the code in the dialer and you're done. $45 for that is ridiculous. You definitely overpaid, sorry to say.
I saw in the other thread that some people had luck when they created a new APN. Have you tried that?

Yeah, I saw that, it was just my first time unlocking a phone and a friend had previously told me he got his unlocked there so I went there too. Never again, though. I did create a new APN and it connected to T-Mobile briefly for like 2 seconds before saying it had no service again. Now it doesn't connect at all. I don't think it has to do with it being unlocked wrong since other people have had the same problem. It definitely has something to do with the APN, I believe.
I had this problem and moto replaced my device. I still get disconnected from the new device but it's a lot better than the old one. I believe it's hardware issue. I'll have to call them again.

I'm not having a problem, I was just wondering if the OP ever solved his.

Temp SIM unlock to Permanent??

Hey All,
I don't know if a Dev will find his way in here or not but I have to ask....
I got the "temporary" (30 day) unlock from TMob thru the app they force on it. My question is...Is there anyway to take the temp unlock and make it permanent.
Like I said I got it and I'm on day 2 now, so if someone wants to take a look and see if they can find something, I can try and get them any files / info they need / want.
I am not yet experienced enough to know what I'd really be looking for or I'd try myself, but with only 30 days till it expires and my limited time, I fig'd I could maybe help get the sim unlocked by donating files.
I'm also a bit curious how "sunderwear" is able to unlock for peeps using the TMo app, but then charges $45 to do it. I don't discourage anyone from making a buck but $45 is 2x as much as any unlocking code service would normally charge and seems a bit exorbitant for someone who's well established in this (XDA) community.
MoodSwinger
Its less than that to unlock on www.unlockcode247.com which uses the exact same process that sunderwear uses
@paoloroeseke: I don't see it. I only see where you can get the code here, but there's still no way to enter it on the device. I'm going to believe since you are a senior member this is not just "spam". But from what i read about "Sunderwear", i got the impression he's been able to get into the TMobile "unlock device" app and do it remotely. If I am wrong let me know, and if I am missing something from the link you posted please point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

It's no longer there . Sunderwears service DOES work though. I had used the website i provided to unlock mine. Looks like it's down to one method again
I meant no disrespect to sunderwear. Just was showing options, which are no longer available i guess. Lol

Sunderwear's unlock doesn't work anymore either. He has stated that T-Mobile caught on to the loophole and shut it down. I don't think it is coming back.
On the galaxy s6 (before switching to g4) we had to flash the metro pcs firmware before we could unlock using a code. We could install a rom after, long as the radio wasn't touched. Maybe something in there can be edited?

i think the best bet would be to decompile the unlock app and try and see how it if we can see how it works..if it mod the ril or radio in someway..
@MicroMod777 , ALL
I get that, but I guess that's why I was saying anything I can pull from my device that's "temp" unlocked to maybe see where the app adjusts the firmware or whatever to unlock compared to one that's not yet unlocked. has anyone who's an app developer looked into the app? I would think if the app got hacked / Rev Eng'd then we'd see where the change occured.
that would be really helpfull. ihave 3 devices legally bought and i cannot unlock them. T-mobile says i need to have an account which i dont have here in canada.
I wish i knew someone with tmobile account so i can use that account to unlock the phone
i wondering if the app mods the modem or just unlock the imei on their servers?

there was h815 firmware created which asks for network unlock code but that one is not working at all.
so i doubt the metropcs software will help too. What i heard is that metropcs has also device unlock app installed on it

Mpcs is still available. Only tmo closed.
i wonder if theres a way to mod the tmobile unlock app so if we select temportary that it would still premently unlock it..
I permanently unlocked my G4 using the built in app that came with phone. Was super easy. Next time cricket wireless offers the 20gb of LTE for $55 I'm going to give it a test run. Is your phone paid off? It should work if it is.

Hey guys just a heads up... I did the temp unlock. used it on STalk for the 30 days, called TMob customer service 5 or 6 times trying to get them to unlock it even had 2 cust service reps take my info and my IMEI and said they will submit it for unlock & I should receive an email within 24 hours then I could unlock it. Those emails never came but I did keep trying to unlock it by hitting the permanent unlock button in the app...tho it kept coming back "Failed". Long story short I finally got an understanding supervisor on the line and he said sign up for a pay as you go make sure you use it everyday once (send a txt or make a call) then call them back and as long as they have an account to reference and the device registers on the network as being used they can override the other requirements. Be nice and ask for a supervisor and you may have to do it a few times to get one that will work with you.
Another interesting thing is...even tho my Temp time is done and if I open the "Device Unlock" app it shows buttons to Permanent and Temporary Unlock again. But I can still use it with my STalk sim. it's on'y been 3 days but I've switched out the SIM with the TMob one to do what the TMob SV said, and when I put the STalk one back in it always finds the network and has worked fine so far. SO somehow at least with the ST sim the device has remained unlocked. Also I have the AT&T STalk SIM, not the TMob one, so it's not like I'm still using the Tmob network and it just recognizes the device somehow.
Just wanted to post a follow-up with the new info. I will follow up again if this chg's. but I am still doing what the SV said so that i can get it perm unlocked. BTW the SV way is a one month prepay unlimited TXT & Calls only, no data so I'm on'y paying like $25 basically same as an unlock service. but don't just do it and expect it to work get a SV on the line and work with them cuz right now there aren't many other options.
