Not sure what you are asking for. If your phone is unlocked, it should work on any network as long as the bands are compatible. (Ex. AT&T S4 wont work on Verizon or Sprint)
You can downgrade to NB1, but that wont help in terms of using on a different network. If you need to enable AWS, you may be out of luck. There is a method written in the general section, but people has posted that it does not work with 4.4. which is your version of android.

Also this is not the I337 section. I will move you to the correct device as well
If you put a att sim card it will just work so no need for unlocking, but if you put a Rogers sim card then the the phone will ask for a unlock code

I need help to unlock sim carrier on i337M
Hey maybe you could help. I tried everything. I downlaod the Odin, CF file and root the phone. also try to figure out and unlock my samsung S4, but it still locked and ask for code. I also got the REgionLock away app and it does'nt work. Well it does but at the end my phone still locked by the carrier : BELL Mobility
My mom gave me this phone as a gift and I want to use it with my actual carrier ''FIDO''... I do not want to paid 50$ for that..
Is there any way that i could get a code or unlock the pĥone?
What rom is on the bell phone? Did you downgrade the modem before running regionlockaway?
what is a rom?
What do you mean by rom and downgrading the phone? I got the lollipop version 5. 1. 0.
Model SGH i337m. I tried most everthing including dialing codes (*#0011* follow step by step).. but its not working. Each time i put the sim card from my carrier (Fido) it asked for a code to unlock the phone. Im not an expert in that kind of stuff either but i tried to get my phone unlock whithout paying if i can. Could you helped me? Did you need my IEMI number?

[Q] SIM Unlock on SPH-L720T

Hello!
I am about to travel to Europe and I was wondering if I could do this and use a SIM card purchased at the airport. Is that possible with this model? I'm on AOSP but willing to go back stock/rooted if needed.
Thank you.
As far as we know there is no domestic or international unlock for the triband version. You can call sprint if you've had the phone for over 90days and ask them to unlock it.
good advice. spoke to Sprint and stated they have unlocked my phone.
now, would I need to revert to stock in order to properly use SIM cards after unlock? im running Carbon ATM but would flash a TouchWiz ROM if needed.
No there is no chance of unlocking it. not for today anyway. u need to contact sprint with working sprint simcard in the phone and beg them to unlock it for u.(possible they will not)
ok guys, like I mentioned before, Sprint unlocked my phone. Do I need to revert to a stock-based ROM in order for it to work or will it work on my current ROM? I know this will be helpfull for a LOT of people.
Thanks.
Finaly we have unlocked device
Well i think now its good for you to be on stock based room wathever your version is ng5 or nc6 . And if you like to help other like me for unlocking our devices i think its good to be in contact with DaisFlague because he is working on unlocking our l720t version of s4

Ok cool. Why is Sprint giving a hard time unlocking devices? Just took me one chat conversation with a rep and she didnt hesitate to unlock it for me. Only thing was that Im running Carbon ROM and I dont know if I needed to be on a stock-based ROM in order to make it work.

How to use AT&T s4 on international network

Hi guys one of my friends bought a S4 in the US, It's AT&T locked SGH-I337 so can't use it with sim in our country (South Africa)We have two models of S4 here, the I9500&I9505. Was wondering what the right steps is to get the phone working? Must I root the phone and flash custom Rom & kernel or just unlock sim card? I'm not new to Rooting or flashing Roms but haven't fidled with carrier locked phones before. And is it possible to use custom Roms from At&t in other countries thanks in advance [emoji2]

The Sgh-i337 is basically the same as the gt-i9505 EXCEPT for ATT locking the bootloader on that model.
You CAN Sim unlock it so you can insert your Sim into it. You will have to reach it a bit though. It helps if you know what firmware is installed on the phone. If it is MDB, MDL, or MF3 it would be easier to do I believe. Either way look for the threads about unlocking.
If you have NEWER firmware then there are separate threads for it, and it will more than likely need to be rooted, flash a older modem, then perform the Sim unlock from the menu. If you cannot find the correct post I can help look for it later.
Just reply back with WHAT firmware and Baseband you have installed on the phone and we should be able to help you further.
If you do have MDB or MDL firmware do NOF update it...

Thanks for reply ,I have NC1 firmware and I used Method 3 on this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2595457 .SUCCESS!
Could you recommend a modem I could try other than MF3 as the signal isn't that great ?

Not sure which would work best for your area. You can download and try any/all of them until you find one that works best. You can switch back and forth with no issues without worries

Change verizon rom to international rom

Hi people,
Can i flash international rom on a Verizon galaxy S5?
If yes, how can it be done?
Thanks!
To install international G900F rom, must be bootloader unlocked:
Same way as flashing a normal kltevzw/G900V rom, find a klte/G900F rom and flash it. Any incompatibility warnings are probably outdated, but be careful, and remember, you can't make too many backups.
Just know that you won't be able to use CDMA networks (Verizon is CDMA).
To enable 4G/Phone service in other countries, works with locked bootloader:
You're stuck with the G900V rom. If you're just looking to get support for extra bands in other countries, look into GalaxyTools by Idoneapps. It can give you international support on most existing roms, stock or not. Kinda hard to use but you'll get used to it.
Both methods will most likely require some APN settings modifications.
If your cat suddenly gets eaten or you need clarification, I'd be glad to help.
(You weren't too clear on your request - I didn't know if you wanted an international rom or international support, so I tried to include both.)
I have G900V model but I do not have verizon services in my country. I wanted to get rid of verizon rom as it's of no use to me. Therefore I was looking for a intrenational varient. I am running MM6.0.1 with rooted and bootloader unlocked. Will flashing a G900F rom again lock the bootloader.
How to proceed withave the process. Please help.
