How to: Unlock Your AT&T iPhone
That’s right folks, you can now start unlocking your AT&T iPhone without having to jailbreak it — finally! Before you get too excited, you must make sure your account can’t be in a long-term contract, your phone can’t be associated with an active-term contract, and your account must be in good standing as well. Now, onto the relatively easy process of unlocking your iPhone…
- Get your iPhone’s IMEI number under Settings > General > About.
- Log into AT&T’s Wireless Support Chat and request your unlock.
- Then you’ll be sent to Apple Support.
- Wait for Apple to acknowledge AT&T’s request and send you your unlock code by email.
- Once you’ve got it, connect your phone to your computer and use iTunes to perform a backup restore and do any other necessary directions from there.
- Now, enjoy your unlocked iPhone!
