Is there any ways to unlock rogers magic?

Hi~ I asked a friend to birng me a Rogers of htc magic from Canada, but he told me that it should unlock first in order to support any types of SIM cards, but I can't find any free tools to unlock the phone for now . All I searched in Google are all needed to pay.
What now?

unlock code from ebay for TEN FREAKIN DOLLARS

Visit mobileincanada.com and pay them $20 to unlock your phone.

unlock is very easy. just do like the above two poster advised. no way to unlock for free unless u no someone that can do it.

reply above,
but why iphone can unlock by anyone,there must have any toolkits but we just don't know for the moment

Can I flash the ROM to unlock the phone?

Well here's what you can do:
1) You can wait, wait, wait, and wait some mroe for someone to even attempt this
2) PAY THE TEN FREAKIN DOLLARS
Do you think that if there was a way to unlock this phone, it would have been in this forum by now? Or are you on to something that nobody else is aware of?
EDIT: this is the wrong forum for this crap anyway

its not an iPhone thats why, you're gonna pay either way just get it over with already.

In an attempt to be less rude than the other poster, here's the deal.
The unlock codes are held in a database on a server run by HTC.
There is no algorithm involved with the IMEI to figure out the code.
So getting it for free with some tool would be quite surprising and highly unlikely.
Flashing the ROM will not unlock the phone.

is there a way to unlock SFR HTC Magic ?

my problem
Hello,
i´m new here and my english not so good, but i hope, anyone can help me here.
I´m from germany and i have a Vodafone branded 32B Magic.
So i had my magic rooted and had a hero rom installed, but for some days i loaded the RUU Rogers on my phone. Now i lost my root, the language is only english and the magic have no drivers installed so i can´t go on market or to the mobile internet.
Many ways to delete the RUU or root this one failed.
When i used the cmd on my PC i make fastboot devices, then comes my serial number and fastboot, but when i will type the words fastboot boot recovery.....img in the next line, it comes : downloading ´boot.img´... FAILED <remote: not allow>
What can i make to become my root rights back so i can load a custom rom back on my phone?
Please can anyone help me?

To OP, can't you even read the thread for the weekly free offer?

I unlocked my Rogers Magic using information on this forum only. Unfortunately I cannot recall what exactly I did - too long ago.

Can anyone sent me the link where can i find the unlocking procedure for my phone

thanks.

Get a non-Roger/non-fido SIM card. Stick it in the phone and it will ask you for an unlock code.

S5 on '3' UK Network, unlocked?

I'm told by '3' that all the phones they release now, are actually 'unlocked'..as the S5 is their latest flagship - i'd like to ask this..
Is it unlocked, if so..does that mean you are getting OTA software updates from Samsung..or are you still having to wait for '3'3 to stall and wait weeks/months for the updates to get their 'approval'?
Thanks.

If you have a 3 network phone I would guess where mine says (BTU) yours will have (H3G) or similar if it isn't BTU then it is carrier branded
You can debrand it to BTU download the Generic BTU firmware from Sammobile make sure you get the right phone model you should be on the G900F but check it to be sure

Thanks for replying..
I don't actually own one,, just asking as I'm thinking of going contract with them in near future.
I'm asking if anyone can check if it is indeed BTU out of the box?
I didn't realise we can flash BTU firmware onto an otherwise network branded phone, interesting.. Thanks.

You mean Unbranded, not unlocked.
The EU forbid simlocking in 2011. All EU phones, even branded ones, are unlocked to use with any providers' SIM. (The Region Lock, however, is a Samsung thing. But that only affects non-eu SIMs in an EU device.)
They are still allowed to run their own firmware though. So you get the silly logo and crappy apps if it's branded.
And yes, if it's branded, you have to wait for the provider updates. (they still go via Samsung's servers, but the provider has to modify them first. Samsung then has to re-test and re-approve it, whcih takes a while, hence the wait.)
But in general you can flash the official unbranded rom over it with no issue, provided it's the same or a newer version.
Sammobile lists firmware branded for H3G, so yes, it's safe to assume they are branded out of the box. CSC: H3G: G900FH3G1AND4 (No, I don't own one.)

My 3 branded Galaxy S5 is unlocked to any network but is branded with H3G software. If you are unlucky enough to get s locked version like @declan8888 you can now get a free unlock by visiting their website or by popping into one of their shops

Quick Question After Working Domestic SIM Unlock

Hi all,
I was able to successfully domestic unlock my S4 thanks to this wonderful forum. Only one quick question remains. So on the status section on the "about phone" menu, the "My Phone Number" section still shows my old Sprint Phone number, even with a ATT or TMobile SIM inserted. Is there a way to change or remove that number? Thanks!

So everything works? Just don't go in the menu and you won't see it, I think that is something so minor I wouldn't even worry about it for fear of screwing up the Domestic Unlock. I'm sure there's a way to do it, just seems like a silly thing to be worried about to me.

Flash cyanogenmod ?

Lol, that's true. I know it is very minor. Just figured if it was something easy, I would change it. Thanks!

Lol, that's seems to be the solution by most for most things... ☺

So I just wanted to reply to my own question with what worked for me in case someone else in the future needs to do it.
As I mentioned, even after successfully doing the domestic unlock the phone still had my "old" Sprint number listed regardless of what SIM is inserted. Now this may not sound like a big deal, but keep in mind the phone rely's on that information when you click the voicemail icon or more importantly for group texting to identify your number in the messages.
The fix was simple. All you need is your MSL code. Please do a search if you need to know how to obtain that code specific for your phone. Once you have it, put ##MSL CODE# and the service menu will come up. Click edit and change both entries from your "old" Sprint number to whatever number is associated with the SIM card you will be using. Hit back and done. The phone will automatically reboot, and you should be all set. Check the status again after it boots back up and it should show the new number you entered. I can confirm that doing this did NOT impact the domestic unlock at all. Hope this helps someone else out there.

flash the jflteatt or tmo and no more sprint anywhere

You can flash stock at&t or CM variant on the sprint variants? Have you done this? @Black6spdZ

Does the S6 Edge plus have EU Region lock?

Hello,
I want to purchase the S6 Edge Plus, and I found it on eBay Italy for a very good price, and I was wondering if the S6 Edge Plus series has the EU regional lock as in the past in other EDGE series, as I am going to use non EU sim.
I remember I bought the NOTE EDGE last year in Spain, and it had that sticker on the box "European model , this product is only compatible with EU sim".
now the EDGE PLUS seller claims that the device is SIM FREE (worldwide), but I have some doubts as I know Samsung has this region locks, can any European friends advise if their device was locked to European sim, and if the box had that sticker as well? or Samsung stopped this procedure ?
Thanks,:good:
Roy

Managed to get a Sprint s5 G900p "network unlock - enter control key" box to pop up

As far a I knew it was impossible to get this to open on the sprint S5 (g900p). Could be I just never seen it posted. But now what do I do?

Type in your code if you can get it. How did you get it to come up?

This normally comes up when you put in a SIM of a different company than what the phone is locked to. You could get it from the company that locked it, or buy a network unlock code online.

Yes, I realize what the box is but from what I know it isn't supposed to come up on Sprint phones. Speaking of sprint, there are no codes to purchase for Sprint S5 as its unlocked ota. What did I do to get it to pop up: I Flashed MOAR V7 from OG1, then installed GT.APK (idoneapps galaxy tools) and clicked uicc unlock and the network unlock box popped up. The GT.apk is for gaining hotspot and international sim unlock. My phone is already int unlocked but never had box pop up messing with it. I'm curious if I can get a code and fully unlock.
* Also, Im aware that Idoneapps does have a domestic unlock for $35. But wheres the fun in that?

That's strange, cos once unlocked, it remains unlocked even if you changed ROMs. Try checking if that APP is forcing this come up again superficially.

It's remained internationally unlocked with all the poking around and different ROMS. However, my aim is to get a domestic unlock. And the free-er the better
The app probably is forcing it to come up superficially, but is it because of being on MOAR ROM? I've played around with the GT.apk on other ROMS and I personally never seen that box come up. But we all know what that box can (supposed to) do, and that's why I posted it up here on XDA.

So anyway, I decided to put my MSL code in the box and of course it said "unsuccessful". I knew it couldn't be that easy. Also, I was able to bring up the unlock box by using shortcut master as well (it reveals all secret codes on phone) so I guess the network unlock box isn't so elusive after all. I'm still very new to flashing custom roms and especially android and thought I stumbled on to something important but apparently not.

Hello, i have sprint g900 which i got unlock code from sprint, i tried to install different sim card but didnt get unlock screen but i heard u dial unlock code then press send to unlock from what i read, can i ask you how did u getunlock screen? Im very new to android root, any advice will help so i can root S5? Thank you
