No, it is unlocked but you have to figure out how to use the thing with very little instruction. You have to load an AT&T; page, which is available anywhere in the world I have traveled to set up the wifi, password, etc.

Yes, mine was unlocked. Though it exhibits the AT&T;'s logo at start-up, it works with my T-Mobile account.

Mine wasn't unlocked and AT&T; wouldn't unlock it because it was still attached to someone else's account.

The one I bought was unlocked and works with networks other that AT&T.; Be aware that if you hard reset the unit it will return to the locked state and you will need the code to unlock it.

Yes it is unlocked by AT&T; and the highest iOS you can update it to is like 6.1 something you can't update it to iOS 7

It comes advertised as "unlocked" but mine came locked to the AT&T; Network, had to open the band for use in my country.

Love it and I think you can go to att after 6 months and they will unlock it, but call them and double check. Love it, great phone but not unlocked.

This is a AT&T phone and is already on AT&T Network. You will not need to unlock it to use it with AT&T. It is ready for use with AT&T.

Yes the phone is unlocked...the onlt thing is, is that it was rooted, meaning not T-Mobile or at&t; software.

It is unlocked "as-is-out-of-the-box". If you have any question, contact the vender. All you need to do is install a T-Mobile SIM card. It will also work with many, but not all, AT&T; wireless systems (of course you need an AT&T; SIM card). You also need to configure it with the appropriate APN for the carrier.

I think it actually is unlocked. The one I got also has the AT&T logo on the top, but I'm using T-Mobile as my carrier. So there we go. It should be fine.

Yes my was unlocked , during the time of purchase it should say unlock. This model is gsm, so it will take a SIM card from AT&T; or simple mobile or any gsm carrier . The phone is nice for the budget. Thks

No. Its unlocked. I use mine through a local carrier under a prepaid account which is pretty awesome!best of both worlds. But you would need to make sure whichever carrier you choose it will run off a at&t; unlocked phone with sims card. Pretty sure straight talk works with it. Good luck!

This phone is locked to AT&T and you will only be able to use it with AT&T SIM Card. Additionally, this phone is using Standard SIM card. If you are using is Micro or Nano SIM, you will need to buy the SIM Card adapter http://www.amazon.com/Cellphone-converter-Nano-Micro-Nano-Regular-Micro-Regular/dp/B00CDJF506/ref=sr_1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1391630816&sr=1-2&keywords=sim+card+adapter to convert it back to Standard SIM to be able to use it wih the phone.

It can be unlocked. It's better if you know someone who has an AT&T account. So you won't have to pay. Or have to jailbreak the phone. You can find out more by going on the web. Type in Google and type in your questions.

I purchased one similar for my wife and it was unlocked. We had it activated with AT&T; without any issues

Hi, You have to unlock it first from AT&T. I went on line to follow their unlocking process, but it didn't work and they kept saying that I was locked in a contract. I finally called them to request unlocking the phone, but they gave me a very hard time. It's unlocked now, and I was under no contract with AT&T at the time of the unlocking. Any phone would have to be unlocked by the carrier company first before another carrier SIM card can be used, either in the US or any where in the world for that matter. I hope that helps.
