Hi,
Look HERE
Here's a video on how to revert the settings so that the S4 accepts the unlock code. Look for How to Fix "Network Unlock Request Unsuccessful" on your Galaxy S4 on Youtube for a tutorial.
I'd post the links but since I'm a newbie I'm not allowed to post... the video ID is cY4LcdO2WAE
Hi All, i need a bit of help i tried to unlock my i9505 from 3 network and now i get "no sim card" i have tried 3 various sim cards which i know they are working in other phones.
I am sure i followed the instructions correct. in the service mode, Main Menu, item 4 SIM says Not Used. i think that is the problem.
Does anyone no how to reset it.

Hi,
NO!
Do not use different modems from your variant.
Ask in your DEDICATED FORUM
will the ME2 work on the i9500?

Hi everyone,
I have this problem too. I enter service mode with *#0011#, choose "back" from the soft menu and nothing happens.
Is there another way to safely unlock this phone?

Hi,
Your modem is probably too recent to allow this.
Have you asked your provider for an unlock code?
I got a galaxy s4 (i9505) and I want to root it. I read online that it has to be factory unlocked if I want to root and it can't be locked to a specific network. Is this true? Or can I go ahead with it?
Any help is appreciated.

Root works on both a carrier locked and unlocked S4. The bootloader is unlocked except for the US AT&T and Verizon (i think, not 100% sure for Verizon) version. Download CF Auto Root from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219803 and flash the .md5 file with Odin 3.04 in PDA.

Go ahead and root it. Being locked to a specific carrier has nothing to do with rooting.
When dialog fails, it's time for violence.
Thanks very much for your help guys.

Trying another simcard is the easiest way to check it, or look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282683.

It´s good that Kingroot works.

Help to unlock, please.
Anyone?
Hi,
My brother came back from the States, he'd bought a Galaxy S4 there, and apperantly it's locked to Freedompop (a cell company).
I was wondering if there was a way to get it to work on any company ( 'factory unlocked' if you will).
And whether or not it is a legal process.
Thanks.

Sorry mate, but you're in the wrong forums then. These are the Galaxy S4 forums.

There are ways to unlock the phone and use it in other networks.
One of the is to buy the unlock code from the carrier in which it is locked.
Another is to use unlock methods found online. I am not familiar with such methods, so you might have to wait for other people's replies or do some research.

Thanks for the comment I'll wait for more details about unlocking without contacting the carrier.
Is the region away from chain fire not working? It should be possible depending on if it's IMEI locked or not
