I cand do that but after I get to sha256 off nothing happens and I did try another sim card, but it asked me for an unlock code.

I dial the +# thing and nothing happens. If I press the handset to call it, it tells me not registered on Network.
Do I need to have a working SIM in to do this?

Yes.

Nope, working SIM made no difference on my phone. The code didn't work. I think *#0011# does pretty much the same, but couldn't get it to work.

*#0011# sometimes it might take a few seconds to do anything.
Although, I have managed to change the [flag] to 1 and SHA256 to ON by trial and error, it still never unlocked the handset GT-I9505 on Three UK.
I have only seen 1 person on here say they succeeded with this method on the S4, which makes me wonder if their handset was unlocked anyway and they never knew

BUMP!

Online Unlock- Paid 3 times

Hello :
I want to unlock my s3.
I already paid 3 times to online sites.
Is there anyone that is not a SCAM ?
best regards
Thanks for the help.
Voodoo SIM Unlock.. If you're rooted

Hi i done mine threw here, freeunlocks dot com had my unlock code in 10 minutes
Jeez dude, you better change your credit card and browsing habit if you managed to get scam 3 times. Also don't go to the link posted by s3lover, he's a spammer and the link is a scam.
You can do it for free. I think there is a thread somewhere which has an app which generates a code for you.
Voodoo dont work in the new roms...
For free ..not in the roms...
The link posted dont smell good....
My best regards

Looks like supercurio pulled the app temporary until he improved it, but you can get the apk directly from his site: http://project-voodoo.org/android-apps
try this
hey, i found this online, it seems to give unlock code for any imei, just follow the instructions, and let us know if you are successfull,
mine is locked to orange UK, im now using LFB (previous to the latest LG8 firmware), i had unloked my phone using voodoo unlock (rooted), but its not working on LG8 as you have mentioned, came thorough the bleow link while searching on the net, see if it works, if it does then good for all of us,
I have not yet tried this as Im not at home and cant flash LG8 now to test it, but Im have got a code after putting my imei no. in the link..
check and let us know so that it helps all of us...

Is your imei 351869XXXXXXXXX?
Because I have the same problem I have already país code and it doesnt work either
Btw if you delete /efs/nv.log before running voodoo sim unlock it work the first time, no need to unlock more than once.

Yes but is the best option the sammobile option is the same using voodoo. I try it and is useless have the same problem of voodoo. The best option is cellunlocker.net $25.00 and i flash any firmware without any problem.

This question has already been asked more than once. Why not use the "search" function and follow the posting rules instead of complaining about no one rushing to this thread?
The phone hasn't even been released yet. My advice is to give it a couple of weeks (at least) and let people have a look at it to see if it can be easily unlocked or not. Otherwise, you can try to deal with the carrier (or who ever you purchase your phone from) to try and get an unlock code. You usually need to be persistent and keep trying if getting the code doesn't work at first.

Free unlock codes are not safe.So better you can use any paid unlock codes to unlock your Samsung Galaxy S4 from AT&T network lock.To get unlock code visit Unlock-zone.com .Here they provide unlock code with free step by step instructions at low cost.This is safe and secure.

Can someone with the S 4 in hand try the S 3 SIM unlock trick?

I was curious if the same trick would work so if anyone can validate that would be great.

It does not work, at least not that I can find.. The menu works but I can't find any info or selectable options for the network lock.

Wasn't the option removed with the 4.1.2 version of the Note 2 - i.e. you had to downgrade to 4.1.1 to get that trick to work. If so, I'd assume that Samsung would roll the code that removed it into the S4.
Too bad - it was so easy to unlock the S3 and Note 2!
Doesn't work .... after 4.1.2 update it does not work ... you have to be 4.1.1 in order to work ...already tried it today from my customer and nope
how soon do you suppose we'll get a sim unlock for AT&T galaxy s4?
Umm you can buy unlock for like $29.99 but after you upload a video of yourself doing it they will give you a refund of $20.00. I used http://www.FastGSM.com . Yes it works on the att i337. I just did it with one of my upgraded line.

I hope theres a way to unlock this device thriugh the software that was such a treat when we were able to do it on the S3

Have you done any modifications to the device? ##72786# always works for me.
I mean worse case scenario, you can do a hard reset or take it to a sprint store.

No I just flashed back to stock MDC took it to the store and they couln't help me. Customer Support gave me a $10 bill credit and will have engineers look in to it i know it is a issue with the phone so what else do you recommend I do. BTW do you know how to manually write a data profile because I tried manually activating it and only calls and text worked.

Well that was nice of customer support. I highly doubt it, but maybe you can update to MDL or MF9.
And I don't know blue to, I'm sorry. But if you got texting and calls working, I think it's a step in the right direction. Just the data doesn't work , right?

Not registered on T-Mobile

Hey, I just ordered a Note 3 on eBay and I received it today and it doesn't work at all. I put the tmobile sim in and it just says searching for service. I have gone through the network settings and not of that seems to work/register. Any idea why this might be happening? I can only think of one thing which is it was not fully paid off when they were selling the phone. Any help would be great thank!
Maybe the region lock. Do a search.

Doubt it is the region lock because, as I understand it, the phone should be asking for an unlock code.
Workout knowing more about the particular model of phone, at a guess I'd say that the Note the OP has purchased doesn't support TMo's radio bands for either 3g or LTE.

Would've been useful!
In that case, blacklisted IMEI sounds likely.
If you try to search for networks, does it slow any networks at all?
