With CM7, do we still require a carrier unlock code to be able to use our VIbrant with a different carrier?
Regards
No. Once you unlocked your vib there's no going back.

So even after i ODIN back or use a different rom, there is never a need to unlock again?
Yup.

Motorola can Unlock Bootloaders all they want to, main problem there is AT&T Interfering and Locking the Bootloader by Default even if Moto themselves left it Unlocked.

Yep the bootloaders are more about carriers locking them up. I'm guessing AT&T wasn't too happy about the unlocked being leaked from Motorola, and hopefully the guy that leaked it didn't get into too much trouble...

Nope had it, but I don't spend all day searching for interesting things. Not enough time in the day for that.

Why is that? You'd think they'd supply unlocked bootloaders easily instead of sim unlock codes. Unlocked bootloader means we can just flash different roms vs unlocked sim means we can leave AT&T, correct?

Wow... OP must be a very slow reader because an unlocked bootloader has been stickied in the dev forums since late June.
Thread closed to prevent additional flaming at the OP.

You will need to unlock it.

I've been searching the forums trying to find out if ill be able to take my device in to have it serviced once rooted. I know ill have to unroot it first, but will the people at sprint be able to tell if its been rooted like the verizon varient?

I unrooted mine the other day and no they shouldn't be able to. unless mine was just a freak accident . I would wait and let someone else back me up on this.

The good thing about Sprint is the majority of techs don't even care if it's rooted. I know I sure as hell don't! What are you bringing it in for?

The device is fine right now, this is just a precaution. I've had techs of both persuasions pro and anti rooting... Im coming from the E4GT on sprint and the only problems i had were hardware issues... No SD slot here so i see this breaking for a software issue? Am i wrong to think this?

Holy moly, you can use the very same domestic unlock process by miller. If you searched you would have gotten your answer without having to make this thread.

what didn't work? if you say LTE or MMS on another network that's because 1)LTE won't work on any other network because of different baseband. 2) you need to set the correct APNs.

Confirmed NAE S4 domestic working on T-mobile and AT&T.
you need to interantional unlock first
a quick google search on sprint s4 sim unlock would get you all you need.

the domestic unlock thread requires the user to complete the international unlock first.

Did you revert to MDL modem?
Could you make sure the s4 is reading sim correctly( when plug T-mobile sim, it should say unsupport sim or something).
Here is a procedure I follows.
