About this I5 × A1 unlock

A1 locks devices to its network when sold on contract or financed. Unlocking your I5 is straightforward once your account meets A1's eligibility criteria — typically the device must be paid off and not reported lost or stolen.

DeviceDecoded uses the manufacturer's official unlock channel. We submit your I5's IMEI directly, and once approved, the device is permanently whitelisted. The unlock survives factory resets, OS updates, and SIM swaps.

A1 country coverage

A1 operates in 1 country. Your I5 unlock works regardless of which country it was originally sold in.

FAQ — I5 on A1

Can A1 block this unlock?
No. Once your I5's IMEI is whitelisted on the manufacturer's database, A1 cannot reverse it.
Will my I5 stay unlocked after a factory reset?
Yes. The unlock is permanent at the factory level — it persists through factory resets, OS updates, and SIM changes.
Do I need my A1 account credentials?
No. We unlock by IMEI alone. You don't need to provide your A1 username, PIN, or account number.
What if my I5 is still on a A1 payment plan?
It depends on the device's status. Start with the eligibility check at our unlock checkout — that page explains how the two-stage payment works before you commit.
