Does the Cricket variant of the S5 (SM-G900AZKZAIO) have an unlocked bootloader?
Yes it sure is unlocked. Just found this out 2days ago after owning the phone 6months:good:

I have read that all Note 3 have locked boot loader. If I purchased an unlocked Note 3 from i.e. Negri Electronics, would these come with an unlocked boot loader?
Are there any reseller that sells a Note 3 that is has both sim and boot loader unlocked?
Samsung does not sell locked bootloader like HTC
sim locked is something else, and yes u can buy ig sim free (unlocked) or just buy the unlock code
Only Verizon and ATT have locked bootloader I think, as post above states, all are unlocked by default.
AT&T's Note 3 bootloader is locked, Verizon's is too, but Verizon does offer developer edition, which has unlocked bootloader. T-Mobile's Note 3 bootloader is not locked. I'm not sure about Sprint, but you dont want to be Sprint customer anyway.
Disregard posts from people, who don't understand the difference between locked bootloader and network carrier lock and make posts about unlocking and unlock codes.
I am getting a free Note 3 from Rogers (Canadian Carrier), and i am wondering if this model has the unlocked bootloader. Does anyone have this model or know if i will be getting one with the unlocked bootloader?

Only ATT/Verizon and possibly Sprint lock their bootloaders,
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.
I just rooted my s7 edge and I was looking for a Bootloader unlock but I heard that the s7 doesn't have a Bootloader unlock and never will? Can someone confirm this information?
Is there an ability to unlock the Bootloader, if not is there a chance that it will be unlocked?
The Snapdragon version of the Edge isn't (currently) unlockable, but the Exynos (International version) is. Your bootloader is unlocked if you managed to successfully root.

What are you even talking about? You're rooted. It's done. Nothing is locked.

I bought my phone from AT&T SM-G955 and i was wondering if it is bootloader unlockable. When i check the model number, it says SM-G955U, but I do not think it can be rooted or bootloader unlockable.
All US S8/+'s are a U variant. (Canadian phones are W, Intl ones are F) It does not mean it's an unlocked model as with previous S versions.
It is not possible to unlock the bootloader.
I believe root has been acheived but it's nothing but problems so I'm not on the up and up with it to be 100% sure.
