hello guys how you doing this is your
friend Alex and today I'm gonna try to
unlock these phone guys again you guys
know that I'm completely against phones
that costs $1,000 so I will never buy a
brand new device from Apple or Samsung
and in this opportunity I have the
galaxy s7 active this is a really great
phone and is around 100 dollars right
now the only problem is it's locked to
AT&T so what I'm gonna try to do today
guys is I'm gonna try to unlock it the
first thing is we're gonna try to copy
the IMEI number
alright so we go to settings about the
phone and here is the IMEI number so
we're gonna select it and unfortunately
guys hmm we cannot copy that that sucks
alright so we're gonna do the trick on
the phone which is star pound oh six
pound and that's the IMEI number look
how different samsung display the IMEI
number different from the Apple okay
guys so once we have the number of the
phone we're gonna proceed to go to a
browser
I do like Chrome and in Chrome what
we're gonna do is we're gonna search for
AT&T unlock and you can see the first
result is the official website from AT&T
and you can see here device unlocked
portal alright so I'm gonna click on
unlock my device and they're gonna ask
are you an AT&T Wireless customers not
right now and they're gonna ask for the
IMEI number and that will be three five
one seven 130 83 90 50 and 94 again guys
15 digits
don't forget 15 digit and you can see
that immediately after I finished
inputting the the last digit the AT&T
portal is gonna recognize my device as
samsung and this is the model sm g 8 9 1
a of course they're gonna make sure that
I'm a human okay and so what is there
are traffic lights 1 2 3 4
and that will do it okay guys so don't
forget to select that you agree with the
policies and you're gonna click Next and
here they're gonna ask you for your name
you know the mobile number is not it's
not mandatory and the email address I'm
gonna use is better make sure it's right
guys because they're gonna send out a
link confirmation link on this one
better call me better call me goodman
and this is going to be at gmail.com
alright and now they wanted to enter
again better call me goodman welcome all
right so what's next we'll send you a
link confirming your unlock request so
we're gonna click Submit guys submit
boom so what's gonna happen is AT&T is
gonna send a link a confirmation link
and i need to click on that link to
confirm that i want to unlock this
device okay thank you we're emailing you
a link and they give you a request
number but again guys the process is
start after you click on that link that
will tell AT&T that you are requesting
and a lot for this phone i was able to
get an email from AT&T and this is the
order status email and he says we're
working on unlocking your device so here
really important guys they're gonna send
you the IMEI number and the request
number so you can actually check the
status of your request so that's what
i'm gonna do right now i'm gonna copy
that and i'm gonna open another window
here and i'm gonna go to AT&T and lock
we need to instead of clicking on unlock
the device we're gonna select check and
unlock status and once we're here we're
going to click on the IMEI number and
we're going to paste it and we're gonna
go back to our email and we're gonna
copy the request number going back to
our page from AT&T and we're gonna paste
it and lastly we're gonna prove we are
humans and we're gonna submit it look at
that guys check your lock status current
status approve so they approve my
allowed to quest but again this is not
guarantee it depends on your phone and
the relationship that you had with AT&T
in my case I had a good relationship no
problems at all
so they were able to send me an unlock
code and they sent me the instructions
and pretty much this is the unlock code
guys this one is the unlock code what
I'm gonna do is I'm gonna put a SIM card
from another company like Metro and I'm
gonna put the unlock code let's open
that SIM card tray it's right here and I
have the Metro SIM card here and again
this is a dual tray that you can put on
one side the SIM card and on the other
the SD card alright and we're gonna put
it like this cool ok look at this
immediately we got the internet were
unlock code and that network unlock code
is three seven two eight four one six
nine done and we're gonna click and
unlock network unlock successful that's
what we want to hear guys and look at
this guy's
Auto update that's cool look at the here
in the top MetroPCS so we were able to
allow this beautiful device the Samsung
Galaxy s7 active exclusive for AT&T and
now we have it at
Metro signing to metro pcs and see the
signal anymore maybe we need to start
the phone but just in case let's try
these guys the six one one
[Music]
this is Metro by t-mobile and I see your
phone isn't active on our network hold
