After AT@T has sent a unlock code and I have the new chip from my future carrier, do I still need too go on itunes or just insert new chip?
iPhone 4, iOS 6.1.6
You should be abel to just insert the new sim card.

Not true. There is more to the unlocking process then just inserting the new SIM card.
This is how it works with iPhones
How to unlock your iPhone for use with another carrier - Apple Support
iPhones don't require an unlock code. This is ATT's procedure for unlocking iPhones
1. Open iTunes on your Mac or PC, verify that you have Internet connectivity, and have your USB cable ready.
2. Ensure the original SIM card that came with this device is inserted in your iPhone.
3. Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
4. Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes. To learn how, visit https://support.apple.com/HT201252.
5. After restoring your iPhone using iTunes, your iPhone will be unlocked.
