"Voodoo #GalaxySIIISIMUnlock pulled from Google Play by me. Will return if an new unlocking method is found working with latest firmwares."
(That's from his twitter)
Can't say it better... Anyway, you can dowload the app from his server.

If this is out of the equation for the time being is the only option to pay for an unlock code online? If so what are the recommended sites, as I have been ripped off before.

It is very likely you could pay your operator to unlock it. About sites, I never used one so I won't recommend anything.
If you aren't in LG8 or LG6 firmwares you can still use Voodoo Unlock app from supercurio website: project-voodoo.org

I'm on xLite 1.4.0 XXLH1. I got my phone from Phones4U (UK) and I'm on Orange (UK) when I tried to sim unlock it gives me an error code when I try use x#XXXX# commands. Now when I swap it for my simcard with T-Mobile (UK) I can make calls etc but in my STATUS in ABOUT PHONE it doesn't display my phone number, it just displays 00000000000 and on the Orange it does display the number.
So really it is unlocked but not fully unlocked? I know you can't really get half and half but it seems like it in this case. I haven't tried the manual way of unlocking but I will at one point, just want advice.
---------
Edit: Just noticed that my firmware is higher than most. Will degrade and try app again but will still check back and follow advice from you all!

the soft Voodoo Galaxy S III SIM Unlock is here link free ...............

Does flashing the custom rom would unlock the Sim network aswell?

My phone is locked to 3 network uk , if i flash my phone with different Rom would this help me to sim network unlock aswell ?

Use Voodoo SIM Unlock. It won't work on Jelly Bean though.

You are not making much sense, if you are asking if changing the ROM will block/unblock the IMEI number then no, it will not. IMEI number blocking is done at the mobile network level, not on the phone.

Stop spamming to get your post count up, especially with useless/confusing advice -_-

You would be better off looking at the GalaxSIM unlock app, as it does a better job than the Voodoo app.
XDA link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846451
To support the developer get his app from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spocky.galaxsimunlock&hl=en

There are two apps for unlocking. Both require root, so you have to root or/and flash custom rom.
I recommend flasing stable ARHD with perseus kernel and your favorite theme (I used grey and black then AOSP theme).

you'd get a better answer if you asked I the right forum

Voodoo Unlock APP -- Do Not Use

I have used the Voodoo Unlock APP and it said it had unlocked my handset.
After flashing SuperNexus, CM9 and finally HyperGalaxy -- My phone is still locked and requests an unlock code to be inserted.
I downloaded the app again and it says:
SIM Lock: read error
Also, the default network operator apps still install - the Hutchinson 3G APP AND BBC iPlayer etc..
Can anyone help me unlock the phone permanently? Btw, why do none of the MMI codes do not for example, *#06# or *#1234# on custom roms?

Hi
Before somebody has a go at you!
If you search the forum you will see the voodoo app doesn't work on later firmwares.
If you go to the themes and apps section of this forum on the first pages you will see a thread for a unlock app that works on all firmwares.

You failed to read the faqs and guides .
You must pay the vendor to unlock your 4.3

Just follow the old tutorial foe manually unlocking with a hex editor, then instead of getting the md5 from the log, do (cat nv_data.bin; echo -n Samsung_Android_RIL) | md5sum
Or unlock with Voodoo, then fix up the md5 with this command.

All bow to the thread ressurector! )
I upgraded to a S5 and want to give my girlfriend my old S3. Problem is it's locked into Vodafone, and she already cut her sim and cannot use her old phone(will get an adapter if I can't solve it today). I would like to unlock the i9300 today, and free if possible. I've searched all over but cannot find even a manual hack like .NetRolller 3D said above. I did find a ton of "100% successful" apps that hide their links behind surveys and crap like that, and I'm not falling into it.
So... how do I unlock her phone at home?
P.S. It currently has RessurectionRemix 6.0 on it, but I can downgrade to stock 4.x.x if needed.
Thanks in advance!

Please re upload the Unlock App
Link is dead. Please re upload the Unlock App for i9300.

Got stuck on SIM LOCK with the Leaked Samsung 4.1.2 XXLSJ Firmware? SOLVED

Hello there, if you are a total noob just like me, or you are simply looking for this and just flashed the recently leaked Samsung 4.1.2 XXLSJ Firmware and got stuck with that SIM UNLOCK code, the solution is just at hand and it is totally safe and free.
All you need is a WiFi connection and have a visit over the Play Store
Look for "Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock", which is a free app and download it
The job gets done just by taping over "SIM unlock code", it may take a few moments and you are done with the number.
Copy the number elsewhere and reboot your phone, once your asked about the number just type it and you are ready to go.
Remember you can only use this code once (per phone cycle) so if you miss typed it you are going to need to reboot again.
Enjoy your phone and allow me to give you an extra tip: NEVER FORMAT your Sd Card with this new firmware as some have reported that it resulted on BRICKING your lovely SGS2.
James.-

Yes! You are right, but I just don't want to try it myself. :good:

"Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock" didn't work for me. I used a "GalaxSim Unlock", but this isn't a permanent unlock.
Does anyone knows how to permanently unlock my phone for free?

One could also restore their efs from a backup.
The efs method worked for me while the sim unlock app method didn't.

There is not way to find in some hidden files or in some text inside the Huawei? It has to be somewhere, I get unlocked my samsun galaxy mini on this way, so I only want to know in what folder and file find the code

There is a official rom that unclocks the phone but it is only for U8800 NON PRO
The only way to unlock U8800 pro is with a ulock code, I guess..

If you flash the official gingerbread it somehow unlocks it for the u8800-51

Yes, I got it, I installed b572 and it is unlocked, I made this since months, I can call and this and the phone is asking me the pin but is working, but when I upgrade to official ICS it is locked again and when I put my PIN it doesn´t connect, how can I fix that and to be all time unlocked?

It will only be unlocked while you are using b572. You can flash a custom rom over it and it is still going to be unclocked. But when you flash an update, when you change that b572 to another, it will lock again
