Hello guys
How are you doing? Hope everyone is well.
I have Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Verizon version, with model number of SCH-i905.
Yesterday, I did a hard reset, and I was surprised that it asked for my micro-SIM to be inserted. I do not have my SIM now, and I do not know how to activate.
Is there any method to overcome this? Are there any custom firmwares that fully function like CM on this tablet that can overcome this problem?
Please I need your help!
Its just like a non-functioning tablet now!!!
I am outside US.
Thank you guys
Well I have the same tablet so I might be able to help. What exactly are you trying to do
Sent from my SCH-I905 using xda premium
Go to the QA section of this forum, in the search field enter "SIM Activation".
You will find a thread that describes how to bypass sim activation, I believe it involves some key presses and corner tapping.
Thank you guys.
I have managed to activate the tablet, but I could not unlock it. Is there any method to unlock the device so that it can work on any network type?
I am currently outside the US, and I cannot return it to one of Verizon stores.
Any help?
Thank you.
What guys?? No one has replied!!
Please this is a big issue to me! I need to permanently unlock this tablet!!
Not something I've ever seen done, sorry I can't be of more assistance but I don't know if there's a way to unlock and use on other networks.

Hi forum!
I have read the post that has been made micke99, and i have seen that no one answered positive about this question.
SO, is there a way to unlock a HTC Tattoo phone so it can work with some other sim cards (on different GSM networks - different GSM providers), without paying a dude from service to do it. How smarter can he be than we are.
If anyone have a good will, please respond to this topic, i am assured that it will save the money to every man on the world.

root your phone,install custom ROM and that's it! ...enjoy
Same problem. Where i can found a custom rom with french language please. And the procedure for unlock for any network is just by flash a custom rom?
As said, all you have to do is flash a custom rom on your phone.
I did that, MULTIPLE TIMES, but no success. Sim Lock window is present every time i insert the sim card
you see a window where you need to insert a code generated with the IMEI?
and i bought an unlock code and that was it.
I did that also. But when i insert the key, it responds with "Network unlocking unsuccessful". Could be that it is the wrong key?
Hello everyone.
Apologies in advance if this isn't the proper place to post this...
I have the Galaxy S4 through US Cellular (Model # SCH-R970). I am going on a cruise soon and am curious if there is anything that I can do to avoid crazy expensive charges and still be able to use my device. I asked around and someone told me to carrier/SIM unlock my device and get a new SIM card in the new country I am going to...is this accurate? I have rooted my device before, but haven't attempted to unlock it. When you get a new SIM card do you still have to purchase minutes/etc. If anyone can give me some broad information about the subject, I would much appreciate it : ) Thanks!!!
I have recently received a Galaxy S5 SM-G900F (EU) as a gift, new in box. and I live in the US so i dont have access to an EU sim card. Im trying to get the phone to work with verizon and i was shown the original listing which stated it is international unlocked and it didnt ask for an unlock code when i put the verizon sim card in, but all I'm seeing under APN's are Vodafone Networks. Is there a way to get around this to make it work on Verizon Wireless? I've tried adding verizon's APN settings under "New APN" but that didnt work. Im also root friendly so if the hack or workaround requires root, throw it out there! Thanks guys!
It's helpful to do a forum search before posting. It often finds you an immediate answer and inevitably puts you in a position to pose better informed questions. There are a lot of threads where this question has been asked and answered.
Short answer, you could obtain the SIM you need from Ebay or Amazon, mail order or perhaps a colleague at work or neighbour. A regular SIM unlock code will probably remove the region lock as well. Or with a rooted phone, you can edit the region lock blacklist to effectively circumvent it. Further details and elaboration in the forum. Or search my post history as I've posted about this at length before.
Enjoy

hi,
couldn't find a solution anywhere, so i'm trying here, apologies if i misplaced my post.
i bought a s4 SM-S975L from wallmart (straightalk) in the US, but got relocated by my employer to israel.
now im stationed in israel/malta (rotating).
the s4 SM-S975L is locked apparently for any sim. tried to contact the company - they blew me off.
now im stuck with a phone which i cant use.
does anyone know how to "sim unlock" this one?
please?
thank you

Straight Talk Unlocking Policy
It's no surprise that Straight Talk blew you off. Your situation doesn't meet their terms and conditions in that you haven't had the phone active for one year. As to unlocking your phone, you can use either of the two methods that have already been discussed on these forums. Either going through the service menu to unlock, or using RegionLock Away and praying it works. Otherwise, you're out of luck and should send the phone to someone you know in the US so they can return it to WalMart.
thanks, but
thanks, but the mentioned dont fit.
they are not suitable for the model i have.
any other ideas? anyone?
If the methods mentioned didn't work, you'll have to purchase an unlock code from a third party. You could always put the phone on eBay and sell it, if you're not able to return it and don't want to spend any further money.
Be aware that even if you do get the phone unlocked LTE will not work in Israel as the phone doesn't have the correct bands. 3G and HSPA+ should still function.
thanks, can
thank you.
can you perhpas guide me to where i can get such a code?
3G and HSPA+ should still function - thats ok

Sam mobile doesn't support this model in the unlocking site, :/
Search the Internet as there are other places besides them. If no one can unlock it, then you have to use Straight Talk for a year and get the unlock code that way.
