Unlock your Cingular Razr phone to enable you to use the device on another wireless network.
Unlocking your Cingular Razr phone will enable you to use the device on another wireless provider's network. Additionally, unlocked phones are sold for substantially more money than locked ones. Therefore, if you decide to sell your Cingular Razr, it is wise to unlock the device first. Unlocking your Cingular phone is legal and relatively simple to accomplish with the use of a subsidy code.
Instructions
1. Contact AT&T at 800-331-0500 and follow the prompts to speak with a representative. Ask the representative for the subsidy or unlock code for your Cingular Razr. If she is unable to provide you with the code, you will have to purchase the code from a cell phone unlocking company.
2. Remove the battery and insert a non-Cingular SIM card into the SIM card slot located inside the battery compartment on your Razr phone. The card does not have to be active.
3. Reinsert the battery and wait for the phone to power on. Enter the subsidy code when prompted. If the subsidy code is accepted, the phone will restart, with a message stating that the network is unlocked.
