I haven't been able to find any solid information on SIM unlocking this phone, so I'm asking here. Back on Verizon, unlocking a global phone didn't seem to help much, as it still didnt work on other carriers (such as when travelling to India). Will the S4 (originally on AT&T) when SIM unlocked work?
Hye all
i recently purchased a samsung galaxy s4. I can confirm that it is unlocked for UK network however when i put my malaysian sim card in it asked for a sim network unlock code. Anyone here know how is this possible and is there any way that i can unlock this?
It is worth noting that on the box of the phone it says
European model.
this product is only compatible with SIM card issued from a mobile operator within Europe.
Please help me.
Thanks
I have today problem to unlock galaxy s5 from us network mobile is CDMA /gsm sprint .
In international version when you insert unaccepted sim card mobile asking for unlocking code. In g900p is problem becouse phone not asked for unlocking code when Sim card is inside. I changed settings for gsm but Bo success.
How to unlock this version?
Impossible.
Hi! first poster here.
I've just got this phone wich was recently unlocked from TELCEL MEX carrier. The weird thing here is that the phone work flawlessly with any domestic carrier sim cards, but not with my US T-Mobile sim card.
I've test this T-mobile sim card with other unlocked phones (Galaxy S4 i9500 and Alcatel Pop) here in México without problem, but in the S4 above mentioned asks for sim unlock code.
The cell phone is SGH-I337M with KitKat 4.4.2. and firmware CSC code TCE
Thank you very much in advance!
This may be relevant or not.
My previous phone was an HTC Desire S on O2UK.
O2UK give you a free unlock on all contract phones after 6 months and send a code by email to you.
Any time I tried changing sims to a different carrier it asked for the unlock code, except when it was Tesco Mobile UK.
It may be that the original carrier requires you to input the unlock code for anything other than certain providers.
I tried to get an unlock code for my I9505 LTE but they said it was factory unlocked so can't speak about the phone specifically but with the Desire S, also on O2UK, had a similar issue.
I've got the pin code
Thanks for your input, sure it's relevant.
I have the unlock code for the T-mobile sim card, but of course it's not recognized by the phone (or sim card?)
In the other phones tested the process was straight forward, just inserted sim, boot up and voilá.
Went to the Telcel's service center but the person there confirmed that it's unlocked.
I'ven reading about a "Regional Lock" of some Samsung devices, but i realy can tell if this the case.
Anybody else having this kind of issue?
Region locking I don't believe has anything to do with this. When the phone was unlocked, the region locking should also have been removed.
I received at&t S7 phone at work few month ago, I have never put in the sim card into the phone, now I want to sim unlock to use with Tmobile network, try to unlock with code purchase online but they can't find IMEI code... is there other way to sim unlock ,
Thanks
I recently bought an unlocked sm-g930a. Do you know if updating with the new at&t 7.0 firmware will lock the sim to at&t again?
Best Regards
