How do I unlock my galaxy nexus Samsung?

We can definitely help with your Galaxy Nexus options, leggs39. But to clarify, are you needing help with the password/unlock screen of your Nexus or are you hoping to unlock it for use with a 3rd party SIM? We'll be looking forward to more details.

The 700 MHz frequency for the Galaxy Nexus phone is most likely already unlocked as it was required by law to be so. Unfortunately no other carrier uses that frequency and the remaining  CDMA radios on the phone can't be unlocked either. The CDMA radios aren't compatible with other carriers too.

leggs39, No problem. We want to confirm that you are using a Verizon Wireless device. Also, are you planning to use the phone internationally or with a different provider? The more specific details that we have can help us provide the best solutions.

The Galaxy Nexus isn't global ready and never can be unlocked.
