Why you should unlock your Sprint phone

Sprint may have been the right choice of provider for you once. But is it still your perfect match? The cell phone industry’s bigger than ever, with new deals appearing all the time. But if the sim card in your Sprint device is locked to the Sprint network you can’t move over to a new phone carrier. An unlocked phone’s different. Full of opportunities, here’s why you should unlock your Sprint phone.

With ownership back in your hands, you decide how to make your phone work best for you.

How to activate your Sprint phone unlock

Most Sprint phones are sim unlock capable. Which means the network unlock code tying your device to a single carrier can be removed. And the easiest and quickest way to do this is through our device unlock tech.

Fully automated, everything takes place online. There’s no app to download. There are no complicated unlock eligibility requirements to meet. And no account details you need to share. You don’t even need your Sprint account number or to contact Sprint customer support. Using your IMEI (nothing else) we’ll unlock your device remotely in hours not days. Just submit your unlock request through our website, and our software will do the rest.

The mobile market’s evolving fast. And tablets and wearables are now just as common as cell phones when it comes to keeping connected on-the-go. Well, the good news is, we’ve got your back here too.

Our Sprint unlock service works for different types of Sprint devices, from iPads and Android tablets to Apple watches and other forms of Android-powered wearable tech. Of course, we also cover the full range of prepaid and postpaid cell phones too. Including Samsung, Samsung Galaxy, Motorola, Nokia and Google as well as all of the popular iPhones.

How to unlock your Sprint phone

Simplicity is at the heart of every Sprint device we unlock.

You don't need to fill in any forms or follow a long list of instructions. Or do anything technical. (You can leave that to us.)

All you need to do is type *#06# into your smartphone keypad to find your phone's unique 15-digit IMEI number. (You can also find it by going through the 'Settings' icon on your phone's home screen.)

Take your IMEI and type it into our website and pick your phone’s model (for example, iPhone 12 Pro) and network (Sprint) from our drop-down menu.

Our software will get to work straightaway, scanning 200 plus manufacturing databases worldwide to extract the SIM unlock code needed to unlock your phone.

For all iOS devices the SIM unlock will be processed over-the-air as soon as you're connected to the internet or WIFI. Just switch your device on, with your new SIM, and the phone will automatically update and activate the unlock.

For Android devices you'll receive a code to type it into your phone. Then just remove the old SIM card and insert a new one. Easy..


Advice and guidance when you need it

Our automated process is smart and super intuitive. And makes every unlock straightforward and stress-free. But if you want more information before you commit, or have a question you want to ask, get in touch with our customer support team. Experts in their field, they're on-hand and ready to answer any queries and deliver peace of mind.

Unlock your ATT phone: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)


  • Why is the unlocking process different for Android and Apple devices?

    Apple products are whitelisted. This whitelisting gives approved or authorized users or entities access to data held within its system. Through whitelisting, Mobile Unlocked can source and directly update Apple’s manufacturing database to change a phone’s status from ‘locked’ to ‘unlocked’. Doing this means you don’t have to enter an unlock code into your device to free it from the network. Simply turn on your device with the new SIM card in and it will automatically update and unlock it.

    Android devices don’t offer the same whitelisting access. Instead, we scan worldwide manufacturing databases to retrieve the unlock code. This code is emailed to you and is also included in your order tracking document. Just type the code into your phone to unlock it, insert your new SIM and you're done.

  • What is whitelisting?

    Whitelisting refers to the process that takes place when approved or authorized users or entities access data within a computer’s system.

  • Do you just unlock phones?

    No. Mobile Unlock works on tablets and wearable tech as well as phones. This means you can SIM unlock iPads, Apple Watches, and Apple iPhone devices, as well as Android tablets and Android wearable tech.

  • Can I permanently unlock my phone myself?

    To permanently unlock your Sprint wireless phone yourself and use it with another carrier you’ll need to put in a request to Sprint customer service or their team of network operators and follow the device unlocking process defined by your provider. You’ll be checked to ensure you fulfil their eligibility requirements. And have to pass a number of different identity and authorization checks. The process is a little different for deployed military personnel. The quickest and easiest way to carrier unlock your phone is to let us do it for you. All we need is your IMEI.

  • What’s the difference between GSM networks and CDMA networks?

    GSM networks are mostly accessed by mobile phone users in Europe. GSM stands for ‘Global System for Mobiles.’ CDMA networks are more common in the US. CDMA stands for ‘Code Division Multiple Access’. They're both 2G and 3G radio networks used by wireless carriers and are rapidly being overtaken by 4G and 5G Long Term Evolution (LTE) devices. These will soon make CDMA and GSM a thing of the past.

Amazing!

Thank you MobileUnlocked! This was a much cheaper alternative to buying a new iPhone Pro Max! It couldn’t have been easier to unlock with MobileUnlocked, all I had to do was provide my imei number (it’s so simple and they clearly show you how to do this) and that was that. Amazing service – 100% would recommend!

Tim Lewis 18/04/2023

Super Quick!

It was such a simple and cost effective process! My iPhone Xs was unlocked within no time and I will be returning to unlock my new Apple Watch 4.

Jeffery Brook 15/10/2023

I thought it would be complicated!

I can’t believe how quickly MobileUnlocked handled my request. Looking online, I read it can take up to 60 days to unlock a device, but MobileUnlocked unlocked my iPhone 14 Pro Max in under 24 hours! Fantastic service which I would highly recommend.

Dang Lee 21/07/2022

iPhone 11 Pro is Unlocked

This was such a quick and simple process, all I had to do was provide my imei number (which they tell you how to do) and I had my unlocked iPhone within 24 hours. Thank you MobileUnlocked!

Alex Darby 08/09/2023

Really Easy Process

So quick and simple! I followed the simple instructions MobileUnlocked provided and within 12 hours of placing my order my phone was unlocked. I would recommend this service to everyone and I will certainly be coming back when I need to unlock my next new phone.

Chad Otis 24/01/2023

Such amazing company!

MobileUnlocked are such a fantastic company! They don’t overcomplicate or overcharge, and their staff were both friendly and informative. My phone was successfully unlocked within hours, saving me both time and money. Highly recommend.

Flawless

I can’t fault my experience with MobileUnlocked. I followed the clear and simple instructions on their website and my request was carried out the following morning. The service couldn’t have been easier, and the instructions couldn’t have been clearer. My phone is now unlocked and I can’t recommend this company enough.

Unlocked iPhone 6

Despite my phone being an older model, MobileUnlocked were still able to unlock it. The instructions were clear and simple, and my iPhone 6 was unlocked in no time (making me a huge saving!). Thank you MobileUnlocked! Highly recommend.
