Greetings mates, I bought my SGS - I9000 2 weeks ago and I'm delighted with it's capabilities (not mentioning some occasional lag, but nothing to worry about).
So, my SGS is network blocked, and recurring to a guy who owns a mobile store and unblocking my SGS would cost me 10€. But I thought "why Am I going to pay 10€ to unblock a phone that already has it's own unlock codes inside it and Im able to block it again for warranty purposes, while this guy just wants to hard-unblock it?!".
I've read the guide about unlocking the phone using the tool "Generate Unlock Windows" and the "SGS Unlock Tool", seen a few vids showing how it was done.
I did exactly this:
1 - Turned on Kies
2 - Turned on USB Debugging on phone
3 - Plugged the USB cable
4 - Mounted SD Card
5 - Ran "Generate Unlock Windows"
Everything was running smooth when I got this:
===============================================================
===============================================================
Generate unlock code for any Samsung Galaxy S
===============================================================
===============================================================

After I got this message I went searching for nv_data.bin on the phone and sdcard, and in fact there was absolutly no nv_data.bin file around. Therefore, I tried the following steps:
6 - Installed SGS Unlock tool on phone
7- Ran it and got the following message: "Sorry, no codes found. File not found: Do you have a Samsung Galaxy S?". I depreend that the file it cant find is nv_data.bin..so the same issue remains and once again, nv_data nowhere to be found.
8 - Installed "Terminal Emulator" and ran the following commands: "cat /efs/nv_data.bin >> /sdcard/nv_data.bin"
9 - This action resulted in the message: "Permission denied"
10 - After all this I realized that nv_data.bin was now showing on the phone main directory. But the file had 0 bytes.
11 - Tried again to use the "Generate Unlock Tool" but got the same message as before.
So after all this, I would be very pleased if anyone could help me understand what's going on and how to fix this issue.
I payed 600€ for this phone and I'm still using the old one for the main SIM (Vodafone), and I'm no way willing to pay 280€ to my network to unblock the phone.
Cheers
I have same problem here. looking for help. thanks
I have the same problem
My firm is I9000XXJPK.
I forgot to post some phone information that might be useful to solve this problem:
Version: I9000XXJM4
Kernel version: 2.6.29
[email protected] #2
Compilation number:
ECLAIR.XWJM8
Also, I was able to find the file through "Android Mate" (after rooting the phone) and was able to copy it to the SD, although I still got the same problem using "Generate Unlock Windows".
I even tried to use an Hex editor to find the code, but all I've found was the network operator number.
I've tried another way as well, which was to copy the nv_data.bin or the bml3.bak files to the SD and then copy them to C:. After that I placed "Sgux" in the same directory and ran it (as read on a tutorial on XDA), so everything was running fine, Sgux found the codes but didn't displayed them.
As shown:
c:\>sgux2.exe nv_data.bin
SGUX v0.92b (C) 2010 By Mar
Samsung Galaxy Unlock code
(based on info by rhcp01123
Opening file <nv_data.bin>.
Searching code block...
Found.
Searching codes...
<---------------------- The codes should be displayed here, but they aren't
c:\>
seems that with I9000XXJPK it's impossible extract unlock code.. still trying.
I have also this problem with JPK (2.2) and JFF(2.1 July), can someone help?
I manually extracted my code with the info from this web site:
h t t p : / / thetechjournal.com/electronics/mobile/how-to-unlock-galaxy-s.xhtml
I installed the unlock app from market and it gave me a code which did not work for some reason, which is why I decided to manually extract the code. Ironically, it was the same code. I ended up locking it the carrier I wanted to use it with, not the carrier it was originally locked to which works at the end of the day anyways Hope this helps
Well I did that already, and all I got was this:
.........SSNV.....M..9. [email protected]<...F].~q.+.....b7..{..',.Xq;.g....h.....R..A...FFFFFFFF........................26806#
Where 26806 is the network code, and i dont know what the rest is. I even tried to convert the string "FFFFFFFF" but no luck with the obtained combination.
Can I unlock my galaxy S
It didn't work the two sgs unlock apps, neither sgu.exe and sgu2.exe
Galaxy S JPK
I can't unlock it too in bml3.bak I found four strings SSNV allocated in:

Upgrading to JPC, JPH or JPK corrupts efs files, that's why you can't extract codes from nv_data.bin. The code is now FFFFFFFF but you can't enter it because you can only enter numbers. I also upgraded to JPH and couldn't extract network code from nv_data.bin. You have to edit the nv_data.bin files to enter a network code that you could use when you insert another SIM. I followed this steps and unlocked my phone thanks to helroz:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8182729&postcount=107
I have all FFFFs for my code too, however, even if I follow steps in the modify nv_data.bin link, it is not working for me. I have a few questions if any of you guys succeeded with the method:
1. Offset 188021 (page 3137) put "XEF" (for france) or whatever, this seems not necessary? since my model string is SGH-T959ZKBTMB and that offset is already TMB. What is your experience?
2. Offset 18146E (page 3083) Change "FFFFFFFF" to "00000000".
I think he mean change to ascii characters "00000000"? So the hex would be "3030303030303030", right? I did this and it is not working for me.
Actually I am very confused by this step, becase this offset is no where close to my SSNV string. My first set of FFFFFFF start at offset 180049, and 2nd set
maybe this guy.
Did the post miss the 1st set of FFFs?

Hi after press Enable Rapi I get message that all is ok but when I press Change Imei i get
Warning!
A device was detected but one (or both) of RAPI
Communications and Applications Policy isn't
enabled.
Use first button for that purpose and try again
I copied manualy RAPI and CERT but still the same. What's wrong?
Then install the two .cab files (EnableRapi and Cert_SPCS) on your device and skip the Enable RAPI step.

Noctua Tech team presents software unlock code reader which allows you to easily SIM unlock HTC Mega (HTC Touch 2 / HTC Touch2 T3333):
Get the phone unlock code in just 3 simple steps:
Connect the phone to your computer using the USB sync cable
Launch HTC Multi Unlocker
See the unlock code for your HTC phone appear on the screen!
All codes are 100% correct for all networks and countries, code is read from the phone itself, no wrong codes are generated.
HTC Multi Unlocker will only display the phone's SIM unlock code, allowing you to use the phone with any GSM operator's SIM card.
This software does not perform CID-unlock or Security-unlock, this is done on purpose for those who want to remove the simlock, netlock and service provider lock restrictions and still keep the phone's warranty intact (it doesn't flash a radio, or SPL... nothing is modified on the phone).
How to get the unlock software?
* People who has donated 30 EUR to XDA-Developers can request a FREE unlock by sending your phone's IMEI via PM. (You must have at least 3

same problem. money was refunded. but it is still not on my visa. seems that nobody works on 1st of january thats why i can't try another service (was adviced by http://mega.sim-unlocker.com). This service is: http://mega.unlock-now.com/ . p.s. my mega is locked by t-mobile. if you try this, post the result here please.
Arrrgh
Exactly the same problem with "www.sim-unlocker.com"
I have a T-Mobile Mega.
The IMEI number on the box is 15 digits
The IMEI number under battery is 15 digits
The IMEI number obtained from the phones Device Information is 17
I used the 15 digit one and got this error I'm also awaiting a reply from them.
The website say
"We only need the first 15 digits"

i think it's ok! cause the last two digits is 01? i think that's mean that, cellphone is locked. normal imei is 15digits. p.s. what answer are you waiting for? mega.unlock-now.com? p.p.s. i'm still not purchased their code. problem with paymet, but if they work fine, i'll try to solve all problems faster. please post the result here.
greate service
It works. I'd soved all payment problems. got code in 5 minutes, code accepted. no more UK.T-Mobile lock.
RE: No resolution for me
Hi guys,
Well I had a lengthy round of debate with the support staff who were very responsive and helpful, however nothing worked not even the code they generated from their side, I thought it might be a fault with the phone but even after a hard reset no joy, so I'm returning it and reluctantly sticking to my HTC Hero (Not a fan of Android)
I asked for a refund, but they declined presumably because no one is entirely sure were the fault lies, however the software I originally purchased from then was broken re: "Application Error 3" so I've files a claim with PayPal.
though the process has left me even more sceptical about these unlocking services, most of you guys seem to have got yours working and the support staff were very good they did try everything.
:/
i try unlock via simlock server but get this error,any solution? HTC TOUCH 2
During the calculation of the code i get the Message: "Unknown Application Error 3"
I am getting the same error "Unknown Application Error 3" any solution i am using windows XP SP3
..
Hey, guys. i wrote the solution a couple of posts above. one service worked with the same error for me. but another sent me working code. if niether of services working, i think there is no solution yet.
No Solution returned the phone
No Refund,
No Unlock,
Totally ripped off
Returned the phone
Wouldn't trust this service, and I'll never be tempted to pay for an unlock code again.
This Sim unlocker worked for me, no issues. except that i had problem with auto sync working with vista which is is unrelated really. I was wondering tho now that ive unlocked my phone off tmobile, how do i go about getting everything working, seems i cant go on the internet as its still locked to tmobile, can make calls / messages fine on an O2 sim any help would be HUGELY appriciated
Worekd for me too
The unlock code from http://www.sim-unlocker.com/ worked for me too
did not work for me, i followed instructions carefully.Opened support ticket and now waiting for response.
Same here got that message and awaiting response from support team... Using XP SP3
Hi! I just paid for an unlock code for HTC Touch 2 from Orange Romania on mega.sim-unlocker.com. I tried using the software but I keep getting Unknown Application Error 3. The IMEI I gave them is 15 digits... I read it from the box.
Any idea why I get this error? I filed a case with them. I need to get my money back in case they don't unlock my phone. I compared the imei from the box with the one in device info on the phone: they are the same. I typed the 15 digit imei correctly.
Please post updates!
THanks!
@vladploscaru
Any news yet? Have you managed to unlock your Touch2 from Orange Ro? Did they make a full refund?
Tnx
I've unlocked my Touch2 from Orange RO using www.sim-unlocker.com software and payed 15E for that. Unnfrotunately I didn't know about QMAT at that time and the fact that it costs only 20E .
Hello,
I tried to unlock my phone on mega.sim-unlocker and I didn't succed (unknown application error 3). Luckily I got a refund. My question is where I can do it. It's locked in Orange Romania. Thank you.
DID IT
I have unlocked my phone at unlockitnow.com. It took 30 minuts to receive the code and it costed me 20 $.
[*Fixed*] WiFi Not Connecting Error {First Comprehensive Step by Step Tutorial}
Hi folks,
This is a ray of hope for those who have been stuck with their dead WIFi radio and have been unable to fix it, even after changing the ROM/Radio Version.

Tested on: O2 xda Orbit ARTE200
hTc Artemis P3300

Earlier Error: WiFi turns on (Shows moving Logo/Detects Available Networks) but, never able to connect, despite everything (Settings/Pass Key) been All Right. The icon Never goes Static (i.e. No Connection could be established between the available WiFi network in Range, and the WiFi Radio of the device.)
Solution follows. Read carefully, and do the following.
The ZIP Package Contains 9 files (plus TWO FOLDERS):
Code:
" MyBackUP [Folder]
Restore From Here [Folder]
backup. bat
Cert_SPCS.cab
Disable_Security.cab
EnableRapi.cab
itsutils.dll
pdocread.exe
pdocwrite.exe
restore.bat
Tutorial.txt
"
Unzip & Extract the contents of the archive to Desktop in a Folder. Name it "WiFi Fix" (without the quotes).
Tutorial:
STEP 1: Note down your IMEI on a piece of Paper/ Notepad & keep it safe (Get it by dialing *#06# on your default Phone Dialer). Remove SIM & Storage Card. Your device must be SPL Unlocked. Do it first, if not already done. Connect your PPC to your PC/Laptop. Enable ActiveSync (Windows XP) or Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) (Windows Vista & Windows7). Make sure to confirm the "CONNECTED" sign on your PDA & PC. And make sure to keep the WiFi radio on your PPC "TURNED OFF".
STEP 2: Once connection is established, transfer the following files to your PDA and install in Device Memory (Preferably not in the Storage Card), if not already installed. Restart/Soft Reset your PDA. Wait untill the device Restarts and the connection is re-established. (Skip this step if the above three files were pre-installed).
Code:
" Cert_SPCS.cab
Disable_Security.cab
EnableRapi.cab "
STEP 3: Run "backup.bat". A Command prompt window will appear and Two new files will be generated, namely:
Code:
" CID.bin
GSM.bin "
STEP 4: Move (Cut & Paste) these two files to the 'MyBackUp" FOLDER. Overwrite, if already existing. These are your BackUp data, save them carefully in that folder.
STEP 5: Open the FOLDER "Restore From Here". Copy two files from this folder and paste them on the main foder (called ROOT or "WiFi Fix"), namely (overwrite if already existing):
Code:
" CID.bin
GSM.bin "
The Folder now contains the following 11 files (plus TWO FOLDERS):
Code:
" MyBackUP [Folder]
Restore From Here [Folder]
backup. bat
CID.bin
Cert_SPCS.cab
Disable_Security.cab
EnableRapi.cab
GSM.bin
itsutils.dll
pdocread.exe
pdocwrite.exe
restore.bat
Tutorial.txt "
STEP 6: Run "restore.bat". A command window will appear, and it will fix the errors. Restore your own IMEI using Artemis Sim Unlock.exe /
Wizard Service Tools. Insert SIM & Memory Card.
Reboot your device, and getgoing with your WiFi, revived!
Wait a while before your device connects to Wireless Network for the first time. Next time onwards connections will take place in less than amoment.

A thread without a reply either means its too perfect to be commented about, or its too useless to spend a word for it.
I wonder if I should consider deleting this topic.
No need to keep useless stuff going. HUH!!
It's really working !
my Mobile phone ist samsung i780. Rom: wm6.5 21887 Garman.
thank you very much ~
Installed WP7 successfully, and unlocked it as instructed.
However, didnt have the activation code. So used everything except Windows Live services.
Next day, I got the code from Microsoft and activated my WP7.
But now the phone has been locked, and I cant unlock it. Tried everything mentioned here like setting dates, turning off firewall etc, but no success.
When I run Chevron, it says can't connect with device.
Otherwise, I am able to connect to Zune and transfer media files.
I like the OS, but dont want to be limited by Marketplace only. I want to install apps. Right now, I cant even install from marketplace as I think there is a limit.
Before you quit on this amazing OS,,,been in the same boat as you for the last two days...just fixed not more than two minutes prior to this post.
-Hard reset your phone
-Do nothint with it besides seting up mail account (not live ofcourse or you migh end up attempting to unlock)
-resend certificate and install on phone
-make sure phone synced with zune
-run chevron as administrator and unlock!
-now deploy all the necessary setup tools,,,Connection setup, XMDMoDDeployer, and Touch explorer,,,finish set up process like you did before.
-use activation code and vwalaa!!!
And by the way,,what ever you do do not try the stop chevron Unlocking reg edit. It has been reported to be the cause of this annoying issue.....and besides you are better off unlocking everytime you wish to deploy an up with chevron than trying to do the initial rom setup and unlocking.,,,if you know what I mean.
Hope this helps.
First read this
a) Make sure you properly install the certificate from your email.
b) Make sure you run the xaps after install and extract then move the file correctly.
I would say a good 85% of cases where you either cant unlock or your phone relocks is because of the above to issues. There are other factors but the above imo are the two mains ones.
PS.. This is NOT the Q&A/General forum , this is the dev forum, please do not post here again.

And by the way,,what ever you do do not try the stop chevron Unlocking reg edit. It has been reported to be the cause of this annoying issue.....and besides you are better off unlocking everytime you wish to deploy an up with chevron than trying to do the initial rom setup and unlocking.,,,if you know what I mean.

Ummm, not BS, something is causing a re-lock, but setting the PortalUrlProd and PortalUrlInt to invalid values makes ChevronWP7 fail no matter what... Read this thread: For those who can't unlock anymore using ChevronWP7, here's why!
DanielNTX said:
I wrote this inside of another thread, but decided to make a new thread because others may not find it or read it. For those who have tried everything, this is the reason why you can't unlock the phone unless you do a full reset:
The majority of the failures to unlock your phone again is because you used a registry script that changed the HD2 to identify it as an HD7 and may have included registry entries that set PortalUrlProd and PortalUrlInt to 127.0.0.1 or a Null value and somehow your phone became relocked. Once it's set this way, no matter what you do to unlock the phone it won't work because the proper server to query is "developerservices.windowsphone.com" is not defined on the phone. ChevronWP7 works by hijacking and spoofing the address of developerservices.windowsphone.com to be your local computer and then responds appropriately over port HTTPS (443) to the phone.
From this post, Microsoft/ChevronWP7 responds with this:
Code:
<DaysLeft>365</DaysLeft>
<AppsAllowed>10</a:AppsAllowed>
If you set it to 127.0.0.1 in the registry this references your phone when it tries to unlock. The phone itself is not running a spoofed HTTPS server so it will never work. Setting it to null means it doesn't no where to go either. If your phone is working in Zune and you hit the end button on the phone, you will notice ChevronWP7 will report that the phone is pin-locked, this means ChevronWP7 knows about the phone, but the "uh oh - Please make sure it's connected using USB, Please start the Zune application" message it generates is kind of ambiguous and is not the actual error we are seeing here.
The original values are these:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]
"PortalUrlProd"="https://developerservices.windowsphone.com/Services/WindowsPhoneRegistration.svc/01/2010"
PortalUrlInt"="https://developerservices.windowsphone-int.com/Services/WindowsPhoneRegistration.svc/01/2010"
and the corresponding certificate is this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
That's how the phone can trust the HTTPS connection because you imported the certificate.
Now if you change the URL to something else, you will need a corresponding certificate. You can make one with makecert.exe or makessl.exe form the various resource/development toolkits out there on the Microsoft website.
In my example, I'm going to use a site that doesn't exist "developerservices.unlock.me". You should change the PortalUrlProd and PortalUrlInt on the phone as follows:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]
"PortalUrlProd"="https://developerservices.unlock.me/Services/WindowsPhoneRegistration.svc/01/2010"
"PortalUrlInt"="https:/developerservices.unlock.me/Services/WindowsPhoneRegistration.svc/01/2010"
Now in your hosts. file in \windows\system32\drivers\etc folder, you should set up an entry for developerservices.unlock.me with your computer's own IP address.
Once you do you need to install a new certificate on the phone for whatever host in the URL you made and you will be able to use ChevronWP7 to unlock incase it ever locks you out again.
To simplify the making a self-signed certificate portion, I've created a cert for "developerservices.unlock.me" with the validity date of 1000 days. It's included in this post. Hope this helps you all with maintaining an unlocked Windows Phone 7 and understanding why ChevronWP7 won't unlock anymore.

i am in india what radio I need to use in india bsnl network
please help me what radio for India bsnl network for 3g
Hi Everyone !! :highfive:
I want to show everyone a new tool which can modify ROM.
This application can give interop unlock, all capabilities and many more other additives
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How to start? instructions are listed below
1. Download ROMRebuilder.7z, extract archive and copy ROMRebuilder.xap and Data to SD card.
2. Install CustomWPSystem v0.6 in phone memory .
3. Change year in phone to 2110 and run Extras + info. When you see an error message, tap uninstall button and set actual date.
4. Change installing applications to SD card.
5. Run CustomWPSystem , select Extra e info and tap Download from store.
6. If the application will be installed, go back to CustomWPSystem, tap SD Card permissions and select SD card. Now button should change to green color.
7. Tap Select the XAP , select ROMRebuilder.xap, and tap Apply XAP.
8. When everything will be done successfully, app Extras+info, will be converted to ROM Rebuilder (although the name remains Extras+info).
When you have everything installed and ROM Rebuilder waiting for the commands, you need to do a few other important things .
9. Copy Data.bin to Data folder on SD card.
I posted several files for some phones here.
If you can not find Data.bin suitable for your phone model, you can create it yourself.
1. Run ROM Rebuilder and tap Backup button. OEMSettings.reg file will be copied to Backup folder on SD card.
2. File OEMSettings.reg is compressed using gzip. You can open it using e.g 7-zip. Inside archive is located one file. Click on it with the right mouse button and select edit.
3. At the bottom add whole content from additional_entries.reg and save the changes.
4. Change name OEMSettings.reg to Data.bin and copy this file to Data folder on SD card.
Uhh ... Finally, you can press Rebuild button in ROM Builder. Whole process will take one little moment. After receiving Success message you need make Hard Reset.

If you say how did you do that I'lldo the same on L920
Works without SD card?
Not for devices without SD unfortunately
Great work.
Interop Unlock is useless on Lumias, but if info about CAP Unlock is true...
Finally, Lumia users can install my AppData Manager and Lockscreen

Lumia Resource Hacker Source Code
Hi,
I've attached Source Code of my App to this Post.
I did not written any special code for It because of security access level.
Even I'm not able access "READ ONLY" stuff using official API.

Wow, having access to an registry editor potentially on all current Lumias opens open space for developers significantly. This could genuinely help improve advancement of the platform.
@WojtasXda
You need to post the tutorial soon, or else this thread will be locked. Placeholders are not allowed, as per XDA rules
Tutorial please! I guess a lot of us have waited for a long time and we all want to know what all we can do with the Windows Phone on Lumia devices!
Is it something related to this ? : http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/general/mod-adblock-tutorial-lumia-t3095171
Man I think there will be no tutorial and he is just bluffing
yea i guess so, what a disappointment
