I've tried doing so and it still isn't working. The sim is from a staight talk wireless activation kit I bought from Wal-Mart where my service was also activated after purchase. However, every since the At&t compatible sim was placed in my phone I have been asked to "Enter Unblock Code" when turning on device. Please Help

Good morning @Sizysen13,

We'd be glad to assist you. Did you switch your service from Straight talk to AT&T? What kind of SIM card are you inserting when attempting the unlock process? Thank you.

It's a new at&t phone I got an approval email to unlock it and was provided a unlock code that isnt working. I got the phone activated at Wal-Mart with a straight talk wireless activation kit and activated the at&t compatible sim but the sim seems to have a block on it because when I power on my device it asks for an unblock code. Please help

My device unlock status says approved. But Iam still blocked from getting in my phone. And it has a full warranty  and not stolen or blacklisted 

Thank you for that information. Were you using the device with an AT&T service plan? What kind of SIM card are you using with the device now? Please let us know which step of the process you are having trouble with.
