Please I need help with my S975L Samsung Galaxy S4. I tried everything to sim unlock it but nothing worked.
I read that one method was entering to the serviceMode Menu (*#0011#) and change the PersoSHA256 flag, but the NETWORK LOCK menu only has 2 options:
{1} PersoSHA256 Info and
{2} RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON
I don't have the 3rd point where I can enable or disable the flag.
Is there any way to unhide that option??
Thanks in advance !
I don't think this is possible. Apparently the Straight Talk S4 is well locked. Attempting to change the modem to an older version bricks the unit.
Your only real option is to use Straight Talk for a year then request an unlock from them.

I've attempted to sim unlock my galaxy s4, however using the *#0011# method it will not enter service mode after the "key input 1" step. Is there any reason why I cannot access the main menu of the service mode, or is there any alternative? Thanks.

this worked for me but I have a i537 AT&T (now unlocked and checked with T-Mobile sim) . Don't know bout international , maybe it says in thread. I got it at playstore. I got phone reflashed and update pushed at Samsung/best buy and unlock is still there.
Hi! i bought a Galaxy S4 i9500 and i am having trouble unlocking it. it was originally running the stock 4.3 android and i tried entering my sim but instead of prompting me for an unlock code it just says no service emergency calls only. I've tried the *#0011# thing but i cant get past the first step. when i click menu then input and type in 1 it doesnt bring me to the main menu instead it says menu no exist current command 111. i got fed up and installed cyano mod 11 right now but still cant figure out how to unlock it. If anyone could help that would be awesome!

So I'm trying to unlock my phone and was attempting to follow the advice of other posts on here but anytime I attempt to use the dialer to access prompts such as *#0228# for the battery it never enters into the menu mode. I've been searching but to be honest I'm not even sure what the official name of those kinds of prompts are. I tried it on other phones, such as a Galaxy S4 and it works perfectly to obtain any information.
Has anybody any information that may be able to help me actually utilize my phone?
Thanks!
Edit: Instead of accessing the menu immediately it does nothing. It will even attempt to call the number (and fail of course) if I press call.

You need to turn on the hidden menus and in order to do that you need root access.

Hello Everyone!
I currently have a Sprint Variant Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. I have switched to Tmobile and I am wanting to get this device unlocked in order for me to be able to properly use this phone on another network.
From what I understand, the newer phones use remote unlocking in order to unlock devices and no longer have a code generated using IMEI number.
I have found fairly cheap people who will unlock it on ebay, and with fairly reliable reputation as well.
this is what i have done so far.
1) I have downgraded from the latest version to: G935PVPU2APC5 which i believe is the required version in order to be able to have a device unlocked
2) I factory reset the device
3) I enabled Developer Mode
4) I have enabled USB Debugging
5) I have enabled OEM Unlocking
this is where the issue comes in...
I am unable to use any Dialer Codes in order to access DIAG menus to change stuff around. I need to activate " DM + Modem + ADB " and when i type ##3424# nothing happens. it just calls out.. I was reading online that i have to activate CP Logging in Recovery, but when I boot into recovery the option is not there for me to activate.
I am really wanting to get my device unlocked, and I dont want there to be an issue. does anyone know if that step is necessary or how i can get the dialer menu to work?

Are you still unlocking the S7E? What all does it entail?

Unlocked mines using idoneapps.com. For $35 it can instantly unlock your device, only takes two reboots. You download an app and purchase and click unlock. You can also debrand you phone, read msl and enable hotpsot but that requires rooting.
