But when i got it back they changed the motherboard and every unlock site says they cannot get a unlock code for it. i am using at&t any one have any suggestions?

The new hardware they installed might not have unlock codes generated for it yet. So I would wait. But if you are interested in rooting you can go that way as well. It can be dangerous if not done properly, however I suggest you get a hold of DaUub. He is an expert at modding and will be able to walk you through it step by step and assure the safety of your phone.
