I have an A1000-T that I purchased in Thailand. It has a sim slot in it so I pulled my TELUS sim card out of my phone and tried it. I could not connect with the TELUS network. TELUS (TD-SCDMA) is listed in the preferred networks list 9 times. All have the same network ID and network mode (td-scdma). The 9 listings all have differing priority of 0 through 8.
Is it possible to connect or is there something inherently Thai about this that is foreign to north american networks? If so would rooting it make it work? I've not seen specifics for rooting an A1000-T, would the rooting instructions for other A1000 models 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

IMEI (*#06#) not available I can't backup
I can't activate root
Update firmware not helped
Someone knows any effective methods to unlock sim?
Regards!

Hi, first of all, this phone has been flashed to XtreStoLite ROM, which is based on a G900F firmware. Prior to this, the phone has been unlocked by the shop that the phone was bought. S5 G900L is a Korean model and is meant for the LG U+ network. The phone was able to pick up LTE signal in my country (Brunei).
The phone is unable to pick up LTE signals despite on the Network Mode option, there is an option to select LTE/WCDMA/GSM mode. Is there a code that I can use on the phone dialer so that I can activate LTE?
What I meant is something similar to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/mod-root-activate-lte-g3-t2819387
I have tried to dial ##3282# but it does not do anything. I think it's only for the Sprint S5.
The same goes for:
To tell what Band on: ----
1. ##debug#
2. enter passcode 777468
3. go to LTE engineering menu

As for my next question:
When I flashed a stock G900L firmware from SamMobile, it won't read my SIM card, and it seems that I have to use a LG U+ SIM card from Korea first. How do I make the phone able to read my SIM card from Brunei?
Bump.

- As for secret code ##3282#: First, the secret code format of Samsung is *#xxxx#, not ##xxxx#. Second, to see ALL AVAILABLE secret codes in your device, install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes'. That way you will know the code 3282 does exist or not.
- Regarding LTE signal, may be your phone does not have LTE bands that your network currently supports. To check for what LTE bands your phone has, enter *#2263# and select LTE Band Preference to see a list of supporting bands.
- If the required bands are missing, you may want to add it to your phone? Try this thread if any luck.
Hi guys, last night I trade in my S6 for S7.
That guy told me the phone is sim unlocked, I just need to manually adding APN and it will work. I am too stupid not to try with my sim.
I am in Malaysia, S7 variant should be G930F, but it's G930V, I tried two different carriers with manually input APN but the signal icon still blank with a cross:crying:
Besides, whenever I change network mode, it will revert to Global.
I can't select network operator too.
Is there any method to get it works with my local carrier? Flash rom from G930V to G930U or change IMEI will works?
flash "u" rom marshamallow..

Flash the "U" unlocked firmware on it. Looks like the phone is locked to Verizon. I would strongly recommend against changing the IMEI because that can add a lot of unnecessary complications.

Can I flash official nougat rom?
Any additional step or modification needed?
I see there are many firmware for different CSC such as XAA, TMK and etc. Which one is cleanest and works better for GSM network?
Currently on Verizon Offiicial Nougat 7.0 G930VVRU4BQC5
phones out of country with other networks, and att USA since note 2 came out.
I currently have s7 too and it travelled with me out of country as well no problems, I get 4g in most places, if not 3g until I can get to fast WiFi.
Ur carrier data bands must not be matching or phones damaged, in my expert opinion.
Once u put other carriers sim u either request carrier to send u apn via text msg where u just open it and it gives u option to save it.
Or the Sim itself will/should have those settings in it. And upon inserting sim then going to where apns are added, u may be able to select it.
A quick Google of bands of ur network can tell u, but I'm optimistic only a very few bands are missing off g930v/g935v
Edit: Yes Verizon phones work on gsm in global mode
There is another option in there LTE/GSM/UMTS
U will have to experiment between global or the one above mentioned, does the trick for me all the time
Hi .
I have bought a S8 locked to US Cellular on eBay, clean , not blacklisted and when I try a SIM card from my operator does not ask for unlock pin code and remains without registering on my network.
Does anyone know any website or any method to unlock It?
Many thanks in advance.

Does it have a unlock app in apps drawer or in settings. It may be unlocked. If ure sim works. WhT carrier you on.
Thanks for your answer.
I live in Portugal and I tried 2 different SIM cards. The phone shows in upper left screen the message "SIM blocked". I searched for an unlock app too but I can't find any like in T-Mobile phones I bought in the past.
US Cellular is a CDMA network provider whereas in Portugal you probably have only GSM networks.
I think you should look into this and investigate this issues as well.
Another info: I flashed with Odin with the latest USC official Rom from sammobile. Can be this the cause?
This is 950U version and therefore has the GSM frequencies as well.
Even if it was only cdma it would prompt to insert the network unlock code....
Any help?
WHen I put a sim card it appears a forbidden sign on the top, where I should see the network signal...
