How To Unlock Samsung Galaxy Note 5 - SIM Unlock

2015-08-21
what's up guys David here and in this quick video I'm gonna show you the easiest way to sim unlock the samsung galaxy note 5 allow you to use it with any GSM carrier or SIM card that you want both here in the States and when you travel abroad so right up front I want to let you guys know that this method isn't free it does cost some money but the money you can potentially save on roaming charges if you travel and the resale value it actually asks your phone when you unlock it can make the cost well worth it so the process is actually very simple the first step is to find the IMEI number for your phone the quickest way to do this is to open up your dialer and dial star hash zero six hash and you'll get a prompt listing the phone's IMEI next step is to go to unlockriver.com where you'll actually be able to get that unique unlock code your phone needs and just enter in your phone's information so in my case we're locking the 18 of the galaxy note 5 so we'll select AT&T United States manufacturer is obviously Samsung and out of this huge list of Samsung phones you can unlock find the galaxy note 5 and then enter in the IMEI number that we got earlier making sure that you double check that you entered it in correctly and then finally type in a valid email address where you want the unlock code sent to and then just hit unlock note that the price with the unlock code varies depending on the carrier and the phone your unlocking in my case is $44.99 with a delivery time between 1 and 72 hours and my experiences usually takes around two hours but obviously it could take up to 72 so be patient anyways once you've paid for the unlock code within 1 to 72 hours you'll get an email that looks something like this giving you the unlock code you need once you have that turn off the galaxy note 5 insert a non-accepted sim card so in my case since this is an AT&T phone we're just going to insert an old t-mobile SIM card I had laying around and then power the phone's back on when it's done booting up you'll get a message saying invalid sim which is obvious since it's locked to AT&T and all you have to do is just unlock the phone and it'll literally ask you for an unlock code at which point you can enter in the exact unlock code you got from the email and boom your phone is officially unlocked easy right okay guys that is pretty much it for me in this video plenty of note5 coverage is still in the way so stay tuned to the channel thank you guys for watching and as always I'll see you guys in the very next episode
