    When you change carriers, they unlock it.

    When I moved from Verizon to ATT on my phone, all the Verizon crap disappeared as soon as Verizon released the device. ATT then pushed an OTA that put all their bullshit a day or so later of course, but there was a window they’re when I probably could’ve gotten more access.
