How to Network Unlock At&t mobile sim for LG, Samsung galaxy, iPhone, Nokia, HTC and Motorola all models.

I am showing you 3 different methods for carrier IMEI unlocking At&t mobile sim.

1st method recover IMEI Unlock Code house inside At&t phone.

                  You can find unlock code under dev/ block/ folder on your mobile or also check inside root/carrier folder this is for older android smartphone. In newer version mobile are locked at boot level. You can find network unlock code house inside boot partition.

             You can use software app which can backup mobile partition. Or use below method before that First take backup of all important files and folders on mobile. 

1. Download USB driver. Now to check that proper driver are installed. Connect At&t mobile to computer and it will be recognized under my computer.

2. root your mobile. Samsung mobile are rooted by different software. LG Nokia need different software. Use proper rooting software. Rooting may heat up your mobile CPU and may cause damage. Rooting software are in PC version and mobile version.

3. Install super user on mobile and also on computer if possible.

4. Now download SDK - software developer kit and install on computer or at least download ADB and FASTBOOT. ADB is act as a bridge between computer and android devices. While fastboot can rewrite system partition.  

5. Once installed all needed software. Enable USB debugging and OEM unlocking. Go to setting – developer option – under this you will find above option. When you are enable OEM unlock it may ask for screen unlock code.

6. Boot Mobile in bootloader or FASTBOOT mode. And dump boot partition of At&t mobile. At ADB shell use following command.

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot  of=/sdcard/aboot.img

    This will copy aboot=bootloader to sdcard. In Motorola mobile instead of aboot it may be motoboot.

  Now copy that file to computer use below command.

 pull /sdcard/backup/aboot.mbn  /home/admin or your computer login username folder/ desktop/ mobile unlock folder.

                      Let me brief you when you start mobile. It first loads primary bootloader or fix ROM that is not re-writable. Then secondary boot loader,then trustzone tz and then aboot. This aboot will prompt for unlocking code if you insert different sim other then At&t sim. Now if you open aboot in hexa editor then it will show like this sbl1.mbn, sbl2.mbn, sbl3.mbn, aboot.mbn and tz.mbn. Now script code which prompt unlock code is house inside this aboot. So find start and end point of script code inside aboot. Modify it and reflash to mobile system. This will not ask for unlock code when you insert other sim. Also ATT Sim Unlock Code house within this boot partition I think. But it may be encrypted. You have backup of boot partition. Open it in hexa editor and look for unlock code hidden inside it.

        

                   Motorola or htc mobile then unlock code house inside this partition. Mmcblk0p6 is partition on htc. Su dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p6. This Motorola or htc unlock code is in hexa decimal. Open it in hexa editor and convert it to decimal and then enter as Sim Network Unlock Pin.
