I was told that if i root the phone and then install busybox and Galaxy_S App that my phone would be unlocked? would this work for att and when i go to brazil?
For a while there was galaxy unlock app that worked for me and others (and not for some). It only required root to use and it would spit out your unlock code.

I've used that app on a friends phone who went out of the country. It couldn't find the unlock code, but I used the second option and it patched a folder. It worked great. Unlocked in seconds. VERY EASY.

Just call T-Mobile and ask for a code?
So what's the way to unlock it? Thanks!

You get an unlock code (from t-mobile or hacked) put a foreign sim card (at&t works) reboot phone. It'll ask for code. You put the code in and it's unlocked.
What is the way hacked? The phone has no service atm
yes it is,just follow the instructions carefully
No you need to unlock it ,If you go Brazil or other country means you need to unlock your samsung Vibrant Phone,After unlock it use with any GSM Network Sim card.I haven't used that Apps Unlocking,You can better get the unlock code from the site
Theunlockarena.com/samsung/rs13wp8/ and unlock SAMSUNG VIBRANT.
Get SGS Unlock from the Market. The free one might work (for me it didn't), but the one that is not free got the job done.

Go to an Service Center which has SEToolBox 3 or credits for x10unlock.com Or you buy credits there.
Setool cant unlock xperia now. Only provider code or x10unlock.com

LOL I thought the solution will be a simple program, or something like HSPL, or a custom bootloader I've a fully h*cked HD2, with gingerbread, so I thought that if I can change entire operating systems then unlocking will be very easy
So if I flash a custom ROM then it will not unlock the phone?
@X10Unlock they give only 10 credits with 1 account... and I have 1 phone...
Yes, I know. 400$....
Look for someone where you live who offers unlocks or in the internet (USB over Internet)
Do Flashing phone system remove sim lock?

Nope it doesn't but there is a much simpler way and it lets you keep your warranty.
I see you are with Rogers. You can try talking to them sometimes they give you the unlock code for free if you are a good customer.
If that doesn't work you will need to buy the unlock code from somewhere. Here is an example http://www.cellphoneunlock.net/ I believe they are $8
after they email you the code you must enter into your Xperia play. Here is a video of how it is done.

And there you have it a sim-unlocked xperia play with warranty and this unlock will never go away not even if you flash the phone.
Note: If your main reason to sim-unlock is to open the bootloader then I'm sorry this won't be able to do that.
When I bought my blade I threw away the carrier sim that came with it because I erroneously thought it wasn't necessary in order to unlock it. So, I wonder if it's possible to unlock it without the use of a locked sim?
WARNING : UNLOCKING YOUR PHONE WILL AVOID YOUR WARRANTY!
you can unlock it with this app all you need to do is writing down the code this app will give you then put your other sim inside your phone and write that code.

So, I was told it was unlocked but I had no way to confirm.... I had dealt with this guy before, so I was not too worried about it. I put in my telus sim and it says pin unlock code....
So, can I unlock/root/rom it... if I do not know what carrier it is locked to? Is there a way to find out?
Any links or suggestions appreciated. specific links appreciated.
I found an unlock code for $7, good enough
thx
That is what I paid on ebay

Don't matter who it used to be locked to, get an online retailer to supply an unlock code (you need the imea), boom your done.
Unlocking / root is different. Basically unlocking refers to unlocking the bootloader of the ROM (nothing to do with the sim card), and rooting allows you root access to the file system, kinda like being an admin on a windows computer, you have the ability to edit / replace (an possibly F*** up) system files. There are plenty of great write ups that explain this stuf waaaaaay further but that is the gist of it.

I'm sure the free tool on the play store is able to unlock the tab providing you're rooted, someone put a post up on xda about it, just have a search for it.
Swyped from my finger to your face, on my Samsung Galaxy Note.
I have Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M (Fido)
Andriod Version : 4.2.2
Baseband : I337MVLUAMG1
Build : JDQ39.I337MVLUAMG1
How do I unlock the sim? I would like to use Bell sim later on.....
please don't bring up the idea of buying unlock code....
Buy yourself an unlock code and save a lot of headache. Otherwises there's something I think they call The Google, our something like that. I hear you can find all sorts of stuff with it. I'd probably try something like "sim unlock s4 xda"
We have Canadian i377m.
WE ARE FREE TO DO WHAT EVER WE WANT WITH OUR PHONES. It's like having a Google edition
And a simple yes. YOU Can Downgrade To What is the oldest firmware, so you can free unlock

Instructions should be free once an unlock code is purchased!
Anyway, the process is pretty simple.
Get an unlock code and then turn the phone on with a non-accepted SIM card. If the phone is locked, it'll then request the unlock code from there. If any company charges for those instructions, they're ripping people off.

Buy an unlock code. I've tried the free method and it FUBARed my phone. Unlock codes wouldn't work even after trying to undo the free unlock. The only thing that was able to unlock my phone was a paid USB unlock method.
$15 is not that expensive compared to network bricking your S4 with an unreliable free method.
