What is up guys? Christian here!
Today I will show you how to unlock your Galaxy Samsung S7 Edge
to use it with any GSM Carrier in the world.
So in this case, my phone is currently locked to AT&T.
So I want to lock it to my Telus Sim card,
or TMobile,
or any other GSM carrier.
And this method will also work for any other Samsung Galaxy model out there,
such as the Samsung Galaxy S4,
S5,
S6, S7,
or any other Samsung Galaxy phone out there.
Now, it is very simple.
We will do it together, step by step.
I promise you guys by the end of this video
you're going to know a 100%
how to do a factory unlock.
on any Samsung Galaxy phone.
You will only need your computer
your phone and a SIM card...
Alright, so before we start
I have to mention that unfortunately
you will have to pay something
to unlock this phone, so it's not free
but trust me guys it is well worth it
because you will be able to use your phone
with any GSM carrier in the world
but anyways I will show you the way to unlock it
and then you decide if you want to unlock it or not.
Alright, so let's start.
So the first step is to get your phone's IMEA's number
To get your phone's IMEA number simply dial
*#06#
As you will see your 15 digit IMEA number will appear
This is very, very important
This step is probably the most important step
of the whole unlocking procedure
So keep this number somewhere close
because we will need it later
to generate the unlock code to unlock this phone
Alright, so we will switch to the computer.
So once you're in your computer
you will have to go to the website
UnlockRiver.com
So on this website we will request the unlock code
to unlock our Samsung Galaxy phone
So we are gonna start by filling in here the information
of the phone we want to unlock
And remember this will work for any other Samsung Galaxy phone
It doesn't matter which model it is.
So start by selecting the original carrier that your phone
is currently locked
So in my case,
my phone is currently locked to United Stated, AT&T
So I will select that one.
And then you select the brand of the phone you want to unlock.
So of course we will be unlocking a Samsung phone.
So I will select Samsung.
So then you have to select the exact model that you want to unlock.
So just look for your exact model of your Samsung.
I'm going to look for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.
And I will select it.
I'm going to select this one right here.
All right, perfect!
And then the most important part
is to enter your 15 digit IME number.
This step is the most important one.
So double check it.
Make sure it is 100% correct.
Because if there is a mistake here this method will not work.
Right, so the final step is to write down your personal email
where you want to receive your unlock code.
So just make sure it is written 100% correct as well.
Now once you have filled in everything
scroll down,
and you will see directions every time,
and the price to unlock your phone.
And we're going to proceed by clicking
UNLOCK NOW
And on the following page you will see a summary of your order.
So just double check everything.
Make sure it is 100% correct.
Read all the information that says here...
Basically says that your phone will be unlocked.
Don't worry, there are no risks,
your phone will not get damaged.
But there are some things that you will need to consider before unlocking your phone,
like some carriers are not supported,
but anyways.
Just go ahead and read everything here.
And once you're done,
you can proceed to place your order.
I'll see you in a few seconds,
I'll be back after I'm done placing my order.
All right.
So if you did everything correctly you will get a screen just like this
saying that your order was placed, and received successfully.
So now you just have to wait until you get your email with your unlock code.
Now this may take between 1 to 3 business days,
so just be very patient
because sometimes it's very quick,
you get it within an hour,
but sometimes you might get it around 3 business days,
so just be very patient.
And once you have waited this amount of time.
You will get an email just like this...
I will show you how the email will look like.
I will show you the email I received.
I will go to my Gmail account.
And as you can see here,
this is my last email that I got from UnlockRiver
saying that my unlock code is ready.
So if I open the email
you will get this exact same email
just with a different unique code.
So as you can see here,
I just got this email saying my unlock code is ready,
instructions on how to enter the unlock code,
and the most important part:
the actual unlock code.
And now keep in mind that this unlock code will only work one time
for one specific phone.
And it is calculated based on your IMA number.
So I'm going to show you how to enter this unlock code into your phone.
So we're going to switch cameras here.
And we will switch back to the phone.
So once you have received your unlock code in the email
Go ahead, and power off your device.
And insert a non-supported SIM card.
A non-supported SIM card can be any other SIM card that is different from the original carrier.
So turn off you phone, insert a non-supported SIM card,
and once you power it on again,
it will detect that you have inserted a non-supportive SIM card.
So you will get the message saying that your network is locked,
or something requesting an unlock code.
So go ahead and insert your unlock code you received in the email.
And hit UNLOCK!
So if you did everything correctly,
you will get the message, unlock successful.
Or network unlocked succesful.
Or something confirming that the lock code was accepted.
And that's it guys.
Your phone should be now, fully factory-unlocked,
and ready to be used with any carrier in the world.
