GT-I9305 cm11 4.4 android unlock

hello,
I have a problem . the phone is network locked, and i`m not sure if is posible to unlock it without me going to the network operator to pay and ask to be unlocked.
i tried to unlock it but i can`t use the *#xxxx# codes as no secret/service menu show ip.
i think to downgrade from cm11 4.4 to a stock rom 4.1 but as i read here will not work and even worse will brick the phone ,
if any one know a way or have a solution for me , please reply , any advice will be tested as long as i dont brick the device
thanks, and please help me .

Hello,
When i have L7 this problem was normal to me. After restart recovery was normal and don't have extra features from Phil. Yes, if you have baseband V10 you must read on the tread from were you download the rom what baseband must use. I think is a v20 baseband but you must inform .If your phone is locked on the network you must unlock before you use custom rom.
Chears.

But all I see I have to pay...

Someone can help with a free solution?

Yes you must pay! I payed an amount of 6 € in my country for unlock. For now i don't think it is an solution to unlock free this phone. You can try to unlock in apropiate service center but i think you pay a more money .

Defy sim locked on CM11

I'm using CM11 by Quarx on my Defy after having used CM7.1, CM9, CM 10 .... I'm very happy about that Quarx's work but now I changed my phone and buyed a MOTO G !
My Defy was "Simlocked" when I buyed it in France (at Orange telephony provider) : but I get it desimlocked after few months with the code that Orange gave to me : I could use on over telephony provider SIM without problem (after that I put my Orange SIM till now and flashed my phone with all Quarx ROM's).
But last week when I tried to put an other provider SIM it said that it was simlocked and the code isn't working ....
Is it possible that flashing new rom can delete unsimlock ? I tried asking new code to my provider but they always send me the same ...
Thanks for helping me

Nobody had his Defy simlocked after using CM11 ?

Hi ! Since then I have not had that problem.
But why not try to flash a sbf to test ?

Phone not fully working ( No mobile data ) , Xiaomi Recommend a Re-flash

Hello Techies
On Christmas Day My Redmi 3S Prime gave up the ghost , the Mobile radio refuses to latch onto a 4G Network and can only reliably make a call when a GSM network is selected . This seems a pretty common bug , though I have scoured the solutions ( which seem to work for others ) ; swapping to multiple sims/providers , manually setting APM and Factory Reset , though the phone barely connects to 2G/ Edge Technology . This is a huge inconvenience as I use the phone for both business and personal life - not being able to use it is a royal pain in the ass .
I have contacted Xiaomi who recommend flashing to the official developer ROM Version: 7.12.21 (MIUI9) . I currently have latest MUI Global ROM (8.5) I have tried updating (downgrading ) to an earlier build (8.1) - using the 'upgrade' app on the phone , however this would not work , the device said it could not update to an earlier build . However I will try the developer ROM next , which I guess should work ?
The other option was the fastboot upgrade , which allegedly allows the phone to downgrade to a previous version ( I wanted a stable ROM , I dont really need Dev ROM ) . However the instructions are extremely vague and were written in a different environment (for earlier MUI builds and WIndows 7 ) . When following the official 'Fastboot' flash guide , it transpired that 'download mode' did not work with MUI 8.5 - so it seems the guide is irrelevant
Bottom line currently I am lost on what to do next . I will try the DEV ROM and see how that goes I guess .

After some reading , I am of the understanding that my Bootloader is locked ? I had purchased the phone with the official Global MUI rom installed and have only updated it with OTA official updates previously . I did not want to unlock the bootloader as my banking app (Barclays ) will not install on unlocked devices. I understand unlocking the bootloader also roots the phone .

Try flashing the phone in edl mode. I don't think it needs bootloader to be unlocked to do that.
For procedure you can refer Google

Update:
I did manage to update to MUI global 7.12.21 Beta using the Stock updater app . However this did not fix the issue , the phone still connects just with GSM and Edge Networks . I tried all of the existing configuration solutions after the update , which also did not resolve the issue .
I also contacted the Xiaomi Outlet on Aliexpress , they suggest that I unlock the bootloader , as per the email they had sent me

My gut feeling is that this is a hardware issue , it seems as though the radio reciever has burned out . I have already flashed with the native app . Is it worth trying to unlock the bootloader and reflash another rom ?
I dont want to waste any more time on this , any suggestions or thoughts on this are appreciated

So the reseller is asking me to unlock the phone though the Mii Unlock App , then flash it .
How can this make the 4G radio come to life ?

If you really feel it's a hardware issue, then it's recommended to claim the warranty or replace. I'd suggest you not to go with bootloader unlocking at this stage

Also, ask the mods to move this thread to question and answers section.

Try *#*#4636#*#*
Than choose Telp Information1 >> choose type "LTE/WCDMA" or "LTE Only"

Hello
OK I made some progress , I changed the sim Card to an O2 Network Sim which works perfectly . I had tried exhausted all other practicable solution given including the above . This doesn't explain why the phone stopped working with all EE network providers ( tried Virgin , EE, Plusnet ) .
http://en.miui.com/thread-1429676-1-1.html

How can I find out which bands a sim card provider is using ( Live Information ) . I have tried to research this but bands have changed over the years , so not sure which provider is using which band . I wanted to determine which bands the phone will currently work on .

I think it's the sim that is locked rather than phone, if you insert this sim in other phone it will ask for pin as well, if you are not sure what's the pin for the sim then your service provider can help you.
