[Q] SIM lock on dual sim - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm eagerly waiting delivery of my SGS 4 and was wondering if anyone knows if will both sim slots be locked to the same network?
My personal and work phones are on different networks and I want to combine them in the SGS 4.

Simn lock is on the phone not the slots.
If you unlock the phone, both slots will be unlocked and you can use different sims.

[Q] SIM locked

Dear all,
I have an issue with my Omnia 7 and need your help. My phone is Unlocked T-Mobile Brand. I can use SIM cards of several company except the one I use regularly. When I insert this SIM, phone is SIM locked and phone function is not working at all. When I press on phone tile, it brings me to home screen. SIM card from other providers work fine. So it is strange to me.
Could you help me? I want it to work with this SIM.
Thanks
That sounds very strange. Surely it must be something to do with that particular SIM card if your phone is SIM unlocked and other providers are working?

Locked used phones and activation

Hi,
I'm about to buy a locked and used Note 3 and I'm planning to unlock it with a Sim unlock code from a website. The thing is, I don't know which models can be unlock through this method. Is there any limitation? For example, can I unlock a Sprint device to use on GSM carriers? Or T-Mobile/AT&T only?
Also, for carrier locked phones, do I need to activate it beforehand with the specific carrier Sim card? For example, do I need a T-Mobile Sim card, activate the T-mobile phone and then, use my unlock Sim code with my own Sim card? Or can I just skip the activation process and ?
Thank you so much for your time!
