hi everybody and welcome to another
video if you're new to the channel
welcome on board we upload a lot of tech
videos we are approaching almost 2
million subscribers so if you haven't
already make sure you subscribe like and
welcome to the channel today i will show
you how to get any samsung galaxy
unlocked this will work for any version
including the samsung galaxy set fold
series the galaxy set flip series a
series m series or any samsung galaxy
note or s series but before we begin i
have to mention a small disclaimer we
will not use any type of hacking or
illegal bypassing tool to unlock this
phone and please be very careful with
the spam comments left in this video
they are all from bots so with that said
let's start so let's begin by explaining
the three types of unlocks i will
include timestamps so that you can skip
according to what you're looking for
first off we have the network unlock
also known as a carrier unlock this will
allow you to use your phone with any gsm
sim card in any country your phone will
become compatible simply insert a sim
card and your phone will be fully
unlocked and used with any carrier skip
to this minute to start with that
tutorial then we have the passcode
unlock this is also referred as a
security unlock maybe you forgot the
security pattern or maybe your phone has
been locked because of too many
incorrect attempts i will show you how
to get access to your phone again this
is assuming that you are the owner it is
important that the phone is yours if it
belongs to somebody else it is possible
that it has a lock on the cloud or the
google account skip to this minute to
start with that tutorial and lastly we
have the cloud-based lock also referred
as a google account log that's if your
phone has been locked with a google
account from the previous owner
unfortunately we will not cover this in
this video so feel free to skip through
the video according to what you need now
we will begin with the network unlock we
need to keep in mind that unlocking a
phone is not a free process we will have
to use a paid service to get this phone
unlocked and in my opinion the benefits
obtained from getting your phone
unlocked completely outweighs the costs
one of the biggest benefits for myself
is when i travel i can simply use my
phone with any gsm carrier eliminating
roaming costs roaming costs are crazy
expensive and by buying local sim cards
when i travel i've saved so much money
another benefit is that the resale value
increases if you have an unlocked phone
you could resell it in the future at a
much higher price because you can resell
it to any potential buyer regardless of
the carrier and the service provider
they use the tool that i'm about to show
you will also help you get your phone
unlocked regardless if it's currently
under an active contract with your
service provider and by the way this is
100 legal safe and the phone does not
suffer any harm or damage in any way so
the first step is to get your phone's
imei number this is a unique number and
you can get it by dialing star
0 6 hash as you will see the 15 digit
imei number will show up in your screen
this is very important you can also find
this number behind the box or in the
settings of your device now we're gonna
switch cameras and we're gonna go to the
computer so once you're in the computer
go to the website unlockriver.com
in this website we will request the
unlock to unlock this phone using the
imei number so we need to start by
filling in the form first off we're
gonna select the original carrier that's
the place where you bought it in this
case my phone is locked to a tnt in the
united states then you will select the
brand of your phone and then write down
your exact model in some cases you will
see an economic service and a premium
service the difference is the waiting
time some get processed faster than
others the price will also change if you
are not sure about the exact model you
can send them a message using your imei
number and they will give you a full
report on your device by the way if your
samsung galaxy has the device unlocked
app pre-installed in your phone you will
have to select the service here there
will be one that says unlock app for now
i'm gonna select my model so after you
have selected your model you're gonna
scroll down and you will have to insert
your 15-digit imei number that's the
number we got a few seconds ago lastly
you're gonna insert your email that's
where you wanna receive your unlock code
so make sure you write it down correctly
very important as well the next step is
to insert your mobile phone number in
case you want to receive updates about
your order up next we're gonna find the
price to get your phone unlocked and the
processing time keep in mind that the
processing time is in business days
which means it does not include weekends
so we have to be very patient this will
always vary depending on your phone's
brand carrier and country for now we're
gonna hit unlock now
on the following page you're gonna see a
screen just like this make sure that all
the details are correct if you're
interested in knowing how the unlock
actually works you can go ahead and read
all the information here it would also
tell you which carriers are supported
and which carriers are not i have
unlocked more than 100 phones using this
method and it works perfectly most of
the times so then i'm going to scroll
down and i'm going to place my order
it's going to take a while so that it
gets processed so i'll be back once i
have completed my unlock so after
placing the order you will have to wait
a few days to get your phone unlocked so
once you have received your unlock code
in your email it will look something
like this now we just need to activate
the unlock so for that i'm gonna grab my
device and we're gonna power it off once
your device is fully off we're gonna
insert a non-supported sim card for
example my phone is locked to a tnt i'm
gonna insert the sim card from t-mobile
or any other gsm carrier so i'm gonna go
ahead insert it and then we're gonna
power it on in most cases you will be
immediately required to enter the unlock
code that you obtain from unlock reaver
in your email so just simply go ahead
insert it make sure it is correct and
then we're gonna hit unlock
boom and the phone should accept the
code and your phone should be unlocked
as you can see here my phone was
unlocked successfully and my new carrier
t-mobile is already running perfect now
my phone is fully unlocked now if your
phone didn't require an unlock code when
you powered on the other method is to
get your phone unlocked through the
unlocked device app so once you have
received the email saying that your
phone has been unlocked you simply need
to go through the application it's
already pre-installed it will look
something like this you simply need to
open it and press request unlock and
that should work and your phone should
be unlocked right after that so it is as
simple as that guys that's how you get
your phone unlocked and now you should
be able to use it without any
limitations now we're gonna start with
the passcode unlock or the security
unlock the first thing i have to mention
is that we will do a full reset of the
phone and we are going to restore it to
factory settings all the information
will be deleted the only way to get back
your data is if you have a backup
somewhere in your computer or in the
cloud otherwise all the information
pictures data contacts will be
completely deleted from this device so
just want to make sure that you
understand that
the second is if the phone belongs to a
different owner and it's a stolen phone
the chances are that it will have an
activation lock from the icloud and you
will not be able to use it so just keep
that in mind the device will be restored
to factory settings so let's begin
the first thing is to connect your
device to your computer using the cable
and make sure that it has enough battery
then we will enter recovery mode by
pressing the following command for the
majority of the samsung devices this is
how you enter recovery mode
simultaneously press and hold the volume
up key and the side key for 10 to 5
seconds
eventually you will see the android logo
and that means that you entered
successfully recovery mode now we will
use the volume keys to navigate through
the menu scroll down to where it says
wipe data factory reset then use the
side key to confirm now we will confirm
and warning this will wipe the data of
your phone up next you're gonna see the
following screen we're gonna select
reboot system now and the device will
restart
now your device will be restored to
factory settings and it will be ready to
use again simply go ahead fill in the
initial setup if your device has a
google account lock the only way to
access the information is by contacting
the original owner or by trying to get
the password of the account that is
currently locked to now if you have a
backup you can simply connect it or
install it from the icloud and you
should be able to access your phone
again so that's it guys that's how you
unlock any samsung galaxy device if you
