S10+ CSC network lock - Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers

Hey guys ! Recently I bought an S10 Plus and from what I've heard from the seller it was locked on EE UK and it was unlocked. BTW it is a 975F S10 Plus.
Currently on my phone is a CSC from UK (EVT) if I remember correctly.
My question: If I change the CSC to another one , for example the Poland ROM, it will be locked again on EE UK?
I'm asking this cause if I wanna update I get the error:
"Your current software version isn't supported . Please visit a repair center"

I read somewhere that unlocking the sim lock via the usb method can cause the error message when one wants to ota update. Have you tried updating via pc and Smartswitch?

"Voodoo #GalaxySIIISIMUnlock pulled from Google Play by me. Will return if an new unlocking method is found working with latest firmwares."
(That's from his twitter)
Can't say it better... Anyway, you can dowload the app from his server.

If this is out of the equation for the time being is the only option to pay for an unlock code online? If so what are the recommended sites, as I have been ripped off before.

It is very likely you could pay your operator to unlock it. About sites, I never used one so I won't recommend anything.
If you aren't in LG8 or LG6 firmwares you can still use Voodoo Unlock app from supercurio website: project-voodoo.org
I'm on xLite 1.4.0 XXLH1. I got my phone from Phones4U (UK) and I'm on Orange (UK) when I tried to sim unlock it gives me an error code when I try use x#XXXX# commands. Now when I swap it for my simcard with T-Mobile (UK) I can make calls etc but in my STATUS in ABOUT PHONE it doesn't display my phone number, it just displays 00000000000 and on the Orange it does display the number.
So really it is unlocked but not fully unlocked? I know you can't really get half and half but it seems like it in this case. I haven't tried the manual way of unlocking but I will at one point, just want advice.
---------
Edit: Just noticed that my firmware is higher than most. Will degrade and try app again but will still check back and follow advice from you all!

just flash a firmware with odin yourself for free
It's easy to do, don't pay for that service.... Do it yourself = Free
I had no idea it can work that way? I have a G900T. You are saying if I grab the stock firmware that I already have on my phone and flash it, the locked feature is gone?

Or is there a better firmware to put on it?
bump
1. go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
2. grab the stock firmware compatible with your phone
3. flash with odin
:good:
Im not sure what other roms will work on the G900T but me for instance has a G900I but i use a G900F as it works the same.

You're screwed for now, ATT is locked down until they crack it. Same with Verizon.

Screwed in which way? I could still purchase an unlock code for it and use it on ATT. I would like to avoid that if there is another way though.
If your phone is network locked, then flashing a new ROM will not unlock it, as it is the IMEI that is network locked, not the firmware on the phone.
I got my phone from Vodafone UK and unlocked it the next day using a code from www.unlockunit.com. Cost about $25. I did not have to root / flash the phone, as I simply put in a SIM card from a network other than the one my phone is locked to and the phone asked me for an unlock code.
I have no idea if ATT firmware will stop working once you unlock your phone. but I can confirm that the Vodafone UK firmware on my phone is still working fine.
Hope this helps. If so, please hit thanks button
Has anyone found a cheaper price or way to unlock the tmobile Gs5?every place that I have found wants $30.00 plus dollars.any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I've used this site before:

I don't know if it'll work on all carriers in North America, but you can plug in your details on the site to check before you buy a code.
Took about 4 hours to get my code.

So you assumed that the fixing the IMEI would get you your SIM network? Did you get the famous "baseband: Unknown" problem?
Because that's something entirely different... or so I've been told.
What baseband/modem what CSC??

What ROM are you running? Are you on stock? What is your baseband?
All of these questions can be answered by taking a look at "About Device" in Settings

Do you have baseband and CSC correct for your network.
Suggest returning to service center if you don't know .

I had the same problem. Tried all kind of difficult how-tos, but the one which did the trick is just try to flash another Kitkat firmware (one meant for a different country). I bought my Note 3 in Belgium, so I assumed it needed a Belgian firmware. That was not the case. A French firmware did the job!

S8+ LDU

Hello guys,
im working for a german operator and we got the s8 and the s8+ ldu's
im wondering cause the normal s8 have no imei number on the backside of the device.
the s8+ got a IMEI number so it seems to have a gsm module inside.
i just flashed a stock s8+ rom but its not recognizing my simcard.
do i need to flash a new modem also?
any tips?
on the back it says LIVE DEMO NOT FOR SALE, but there's a IMEI number directly over it.
regards

Hi there. I have an LDU of the regular S8. But mine cant even get into demo mode. It's recovery or Download mode only. What stock firmware did you flash to make it at least work?
My model # on the back is SM-G950XU
I've flashed like 6 different stock FW, it passes in odin and then as its loading up it stops, then says "erasing" and goes back to saying "Security error: an unauthorized firmware has been flashed and the device is locked"
same Issue 950XU
Hi nashville did u fix ur phone because i am facing the same issue with 950XU

If you guys still have the phone. Do not flash a newer ROM! You will never be able to go back to bootloader rev 1.
Find the XU firmware online and flash that.

If it says Sim is not Verizon then it's most probably locked
Dial *#0011# and check stats
Also check service menu code or Samsung phone info app from playstore to check lock status of your phone
If locked
Try using tool/apps like Samsung Firmware Tool,Z3x to unlock or check forum for unlock method

I don't think it has anything to do with a custom ROM it has more to do with EFS and CERT
I'm sure there are several ways of unlocking your device
1)you can turn to legit paid services
2)you can look up for applications that allow for unlocking Z3x,Octopus/Octoplus, Samsung Firmware Tool etc
3)you can look up for local hardware/software repair shops that offer unlocking for phone's (usually coz they have expensive box)
When you have finally run out of options
4)if in your country its legal/allowed to change your device IMEI then get a working cert/efs for N910V

The problem can be your device being locked, your only hope is local marketplace or using a tool yourself but most of these applications ship with box and that is very costly there are cracked versions too with loader but obviously I am not at liberty to provide them on xda ,the other issue is most of these applications with loader wont have support for N910V because I check the one I have and thats the latest one I could grab ill check Samsung Professional Tool for you as well if it has N910V in device list
