sup guys Kristen here and today I'm
going to show you how to unlock any
samsung galaxy phone out there as you
can see here heavy samsung galaxy s
eight seven six five four three two and
all the way down to the first-generation
samsung galaxy now i'm gonna show you
how to unlock your phone this will work
for any samsung galaxy phone out there
there are two types of unlocks first you
have the carrier unlock and then you
have the passcode unlock so i'm gonna
show you how to do both of them a
passcode unlock is in case you forgot a
security code of your phone and you're
locked out so i'm gonna show you how to
bypass that screen so that you're able
to access your phone again I'm the
network unlock use in case you want to
use your phone with a different provider
let's say for example you have a phone
from AT&T and you want to use it with
t-mobile you need to invert your phone
before you can switch between carriers
and use different SIM cards so I'm gonna
show you how to do both types of unlocks
for the carrier and lock go ahead and
skip to this minute on this video so
we're gonna start first with a passcode
unlock so for the passcode lock you have
good news and bad news the good news is
that you will be able to use your phone
the bad news is that all the information
of this phone will be deleted unless you
have a backup somewhere in your computer
so all the pictures contacts and
everything will be gone alright so let's
start I'm gonna switch camera so that
you can see what I'm doing with the
phone alright so grab your phone and you
have to press and hold these three
buttons at exactly the same time so
that's the volume up key the home button
and the side button if you don't have
the side button you can use the HOME key
in case you have an older phone but
anyways when you see the samsung galaxy
logo you're gonna let go
and you're gonna see the android logo so
that's perfectly fine that means that
you were able to access this phone
system so we're gonna navigate through
this menu here scroll down using the up
volume up key and volume down key and go
where it says delete data factory reset
ok so you click confirm with the power
of key and then we're gonna click yes
perfect now scroll down and click where
it says reboot system now ok so your
phone is gonna restart
he's gonna take a few seconds or a few
minutes and once your phone is on you're
gonna see the welcome screen and your
phone will be fully unlocked so as you
can see here I was able to access my
phone and boom it is now fully unlocked
and that's it now you should be able to
use your phone without any trouble
alright so for the carrier unlock you
only need your phone a computer and a
SIM card that's all you need to unlock
your phone it's gonna be very simple now
there are a few ways to unlock your
phone and I'm gonna try to explain them
as clear
as I can basically there are three
options where you can take your phone to
a local repair shop and they might
unlock it for you it will take a few
days and it should cost between 50 to
150 dollars so it can be quite expensive
the other option is to ask your provider
to unlock it for you sometimes they will
do it for free but it depends and some
cases they give you a lot of butts like
you need to own your phone for at least
six months you need to be out of
contract and your phone needs to be
fully paid and cannot be blacklisted so
I'm gonna show you the simplest way to
unlock your phone all you need is a
computer and your phone and that's it so
I'm gonna show you how to do it is very
simple we're gonna do it together
a step-by-step okay so I'm going to
switch camera so that you can see what
I'm doing here so first go ahead and
grab your phone and we're gonna get the
IMEI number of the phone so we're gonna
dial star hash zero six of the hash and
as you will see that 15 to get a my
number will appear in your screen so
this is very very important guys we're
gonna use this number to generate the
unlock code to unlock this phone okay so
keep it somewhere close now we're gonna
switch to a computer go to your internet
browser and then you have to with your
website unlockriver.com in this website
we will create the unlock code to unlock
this phone so we're gonna start by
selecting the original carrier that your
phone is currently locked this is a
place where you bought it
so for this example I'm gonna use my
carrier AT&T United States that should
be the carrier that your phone is
currently locked to alright then scroll
down and you click where it says Samsung
because we're gonna be unlocking a
samsung phone and then select the right
model
so just for it in this case I have my
samsung galaxy s 8 plus so I'm gonna
select that one perfect now the most
important part here you have to write
down the 15 digit IMEI number so make
sure you write it down 100% correct if
there's a mistake here this method will
not work so make sure you use only the
first 15 digits beautiful okay we're
almost done so the last step is to write
down your personal email where you want
to receive your unlock code because they
will send you your unlock code to this
email now if you scroll down you will
see the price to unlock your phone and
the average delivery time to get that
unlock code in your email
anyways we're gonna click reset unlock
now and on the following page you will
see a screen just like this this is
basically a summary of your order read
everything here there's some information
you need to consider before unlocking
your phone but don't worry nothing's
nothing serious nothing really to
about so once you have done everything
go ahead and place your order and I'm
gonna show you how the email will look
like after you receive it after like 1
or 24 hours or I don't know it depends
on every case but anyways I'm gonna show
you my email all right so let's go to my
gmail and as you can see here my latest
email is from Lock River and it says
Samsung unlock code ready perfect that's
the email you want to wait for anyway so
let's open the email and you will see
that it says sure instructions and how
to enter this unlock code it says that
the code is ready but the most important
part is the actual unlock code so this
right here is what we're gonna use to
unlock this phone now keep in mind that
this code this exact same code will not
work for your phone because it only
works for one specific phone based on
your IMEI number so anyways I'm gonna
show you how to enter this unlock code
it's super simple so I'm gonna switch
cameras back to the phone so make sure
that your phone is fully turned off and
you're gonna have to insert a
non-supported SIM card my phone is from
AT&T so I'm gonna use a different
provider like t-mobile Telus or any
other so anyways we're gonna go ahead
and search the SIM card in and once your
phone has detected that you have
inserted a non-supported SIM card you
will require you to enter this mode code
so I'm just gonna go ahead insert it
here and we're gonna power on the phone
so after a few seconds you will see the
screen requesting the network unlock
code so we're gonna go ahead and insert
this unlock code here make sure it is
100% correct and then you're gonna hit
where it says unlock perfect sim network
unlock successful that means that the
code was accepted and now we have a
fully factory unlocked phone now your
phone is gonna restart is gonna take a
few seconds so once your phone is on you
should get a full signal of your new
carrier
