No I did not I ended up selling the phone as I wanted to change networks but I could not unlock the pjone.
Ei.. any fix for this?
i BELIEVE this is part of Samsung's "business strategy".. i was resolve this using the Samsung Service Mode apk (which I cracked and patched :highfive, however i have another issue related to this (see attached pic)!
In this case...may i ask if anyone from XDA knows the secret code for the UMTS Menu for me to access the Network Unlock menu???

Hi XDA Peeps!
I was able to unlock my i9505!
I just did the following steps:
1. Dial *#0011# via Phone Utility apk [Phone Connectivity Status will appear (via Service Mode)];
2. Tap on the left soft key (LSK) and select Key Input > Enter 1 > Hit OK;
3. Tap on the LSK and select BACK [You're now just a few steps away!];
4. Tap on the LSK and select Key Input > Enter 1 > Hit OK [Your screen shall have a different output now (i.e., a single digit "1" on line 1)];
5. WAIT for 5 seconds until the UMTS MAIN MENU appears > Select Debug Screen > Select Phone Control > Select Network Lock;
6. Next, tap on: [3] PERSO SHA256 OFF;
7. From here, go back to the UMTS MAIN MENU by tapping on Menu (left soft key on SGS4) and selecting Back from the options;
8. Once you are in the UMTS menu, tap on: [6]COMMON;
9. There, select: [6]NV REBUILD;
10. Now in the NV Rebuild menu, tap on: [4] Restore Back-up;
11. Samsung Galaxy S4 will now go into a temporary freezing state. After a while you’ll see some activities. The screen will be black and the LED will turn Blue. The Menu and Back key button on phone will also light;
12. Lastly, your Samsung Galaxy S4 will reboot automatically and will take a minute or two in booting up (depending on your ROM's Boot Animation);
BOOM! Your Galaxy S4 GT i9505 is now SIM-unlocked! Try a SIM card from another carrier to confirm the process and do not forget to share this to your friends too!

Network unlock: [3] PERSO SHA256 OFF missing

Hi,
I have rooted MK2. I am trying to follow the steps http://gs4.wonderhowto.com/how-to/carrier-unlock-your-samsung-galaxy-s4-so-you-can-use-another-sim-card-0148110/
To get to the menu, I'd have to use the instruction at the bottom
*#0011#
Menu > Back
Menu > keyInput "Q"
Menu > keyInput "0000"
Wait for few seconds
However, when I get to step 6, option 3 PERSO SHA256 OFF does not exist. It only has 2 options:
[1] PERSO SHA256 Info
[2] RAT_FREE_SUPPORTING ON
How would be able to turn network lock off?
Thanks

[Q] Carrier unlock

Hey guys
Can I unlock my note 4 if I flash a different Csc based firmware on it?
So, I managed to enter the ServiceMode, by:
On this particular model, you have to do this:
Go to dial pad and enter: *#0011#
This will initially take you to Service Mode and showing you
various signal status items, by default. But it's a locked
entry. So to unlock and go to the Main Menu do this:
==> [MENU] + [Back]
==> [MENU] + [Key Input] + "Q"
==> [MENU] + [Key Input] + "0000"
==> <wait ~5-10 seconds>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But after this I just can't find the following:
Code:
UMTS MAIN MENU
[1] DEBUG SCREEN.
[6] PHONE CONTROL.
[6] NETWORK LOCK
[3] PERSO SHA256 OFF
Go Back to Main Menu
UMTS MAIN MENU
[6] COMMON
[6] NV REBUILD.
[4] Restore Back-up.
Reboot
Can anybody help?
If it's network/sim locked you will need the unlock code either from your carrier or a 3rd party websites

Nope, you cannot unlock just by flashing another firmware.

Samsung Galaxy S4 i9506 sim unlock problems!

Hi to everyone!
I have been reading a lot of forums about unlocking my Samsung S4 i9506, but it's resulting very hard...
First, I read about getting a hidden Service Mode Menu, introducing *#0011# on dial pad.
For going to main menu, with the menu button, back, menu button, insert code, Q0.
Now I got the main menu. Clic [1] UMTS, [1] Debug Screen, [8] Phone control, [6] Network Lock
And now I should see three options:
[1] Perso Sha256 Info
[2] Perso Sha256 ON
[3] Perso Sha256 OFF
But options [2] and [3] are Hidden.
¿Hoy to "unlock" these options for going on the Sim Unlocking proccess?
Thanks a lot for your responses!
