I have flashed my Verizon S3 to Omni KitKat 4.4.3 version. I am thinking Bootloader is locked means it will unlock this SIM too.
If not how to unlock the SIM to use other carrier. Is there any app for unlock the phone?

Take this up with whomever created the unofficial build you are running. Omni does not currently officially support any of the d2 family (no maintainer for any d2 variant)

I have a sprint samsung galaxy s4 the l720t version and im wanting to unlock the sim port to use with a verizon sim card because i recently ported my number from sprint to verizon. is there a way to do this without having to call sprint to get the sim unlock code?
There is no Sim unlock for the triband version of the Sprint GS4. And plus Sprint would not unlock the device for domestic unlock only international.

Actually there IS a method for the triband version! Its not as simple as an unlock code though. PM me for more info
First off, sorry for the confusing thread title.
I'm currently running an AT&T Note 3 which has a locked bootloader and I've wanted to run CyanogenMod for a while now. I've ordered a second hand T-Mobile Galaxy S5 because I've heard the bootloader is unlocked and/or unlockable.
Can anyone here clarify how the sim lock/carrier lock works?
Will this require me to purchase an unlock code or will flashing the bootloader and custom firmware automatically unlock the sim? From my research I've read that I still need to unlock the sim, but I've also read that using a different bootloader can unlock it. Kind of confusing.
Hi,
Tomorrow, I will be paying a visit to the US Cellular store so that they can unlock my phone for use on GSM networks. I usually run the unofficial build of CyanogenMod 12.1. But I learned that in order for them to unlock it I must be on stock. My question is: after I get it unlocked, will I be able to flash back to my backup of CyanogenMod without relocking the phone? I know on full GSM phones it's more of a hardware thing. But I want to be sure once it's unlocked that it's permanent.
(Also, I forgot to mention it's the US Cellular variant of the Galaxy S5)
Thank you!!
ROMs don't affect SIM lock afaik, or you'd be able to unlock them with a custom ROM too
I have a note 3 with stock lollipop rom model n900w8 which is the canadian note 3 version. I just want to know if it will be sim locked again if I installed a custom rom like magma or darklord?
PS. I don't know if it was sim locked before, I just got it sim unlocked already.
Additional question: can I just go back to stock kitkat from stock lollipop without rooting?
How was it sim unlocked? With an unlock code, the phone should be permanently unlocked regardless of flashing a custom ROM or upgrading bootloaders and modems.

Most likely it will never re-lock itself
Every phone that I got from a carrier and subsequently unlocked via code, including the n900w8, or a free method (i.e. Samsung note 2, s3, s4) has never relocked after flashing a stock or custom ROM.
hey guys i have the tmobile 6t and pay for it monthly on tmobile
i unlocked it and put latest 9.0.11 oxygen os on it
does this mean I can use it on ATT or verizon? I'm not sure if its actually sim unlocked without finding someone elses SIM in there. I know i had to sim unlock to unlock the bootloader but will I still be able to use it on verizon or ATT or another tmobile account?
thanks!

If you flashed the international's ROM, it's now SIM unlocked.

I read in the unlocking thread that flashing the international rom allows the bootloader to be unlocked, but not the phone itself. I don't have a different SIM to test my theory, though.
You must request a Sim unlock from T-Mobile. If you did the recent msmtool where you flashed to international version of oos. You would need to reflash with msmtool for tmo in order to request the unlock Sim code. Using the msmtool to flash international does not Sim unlock. That is done through the Sim unlock app installed on tmo 6t os. And must be requested and approved by Twitter for the unlock Sim code. Which you can do through TMobile Twitter, higher success rate
