Hi everyone,
my mom have a Samsung A20 but its locked by the operator in United States, now she is alredy in Colombia, i have to wait 4 months more to apply the process to unlock by this oeprator, there is another way to unlock the cellphone for use with a operator in Colombia, like reinstall the ROM.
thanks for your comments

Read here about the Samsung region lock http://bgr.com/2014/04/11/samsung-galaxy-s5-region-locking/ as you have a US device and want to use it in the EU. Many more sites available. You could also call Samsung for advice and/or maybe removal of the lock. I hope the device isn`t simlocked too for your sake.

It would be rather difficult to give you a solution without any information. You didn't even tell us the verbatim error message, the carrier you are trying to use the phone on or much else.
It could be any number of things from region locked to SIM locked to an innoculous Sprint setup message. Or something completely different i.e. that a CDMA Sprint phone over has limited compatibility with GSM frequency bands. You simply didn't provide enough information to more than guess.

Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2692269 and more to find on Google, afaik Sprint devices have a locked bootloader so i don`t know if flashing custom software is even possible.
Hi I have this s5 and turns out it is on the network Ntelos from US and right now I am in Ireland is it possible to unlock to a different network so it can work over here?
Thanks in advance

Typically you will need the unlock code to unlock the phone.
You can buy it online, or follow this topic to request it for free (if any luck).
Hi guys ,
First post here on this great forum.
I bought this model ( SM-G935P ) on ebay and the phone is coming from the USA. Only knowledge i got is that it has bad ESN. That should not be a problem here in the Netherlands so i thought...lets give it a try.
The phone does not recognize any dutch simcards so im pretty sure it has a sim lock. My question is ....can i unlock this model here in the Netherlands? The device does not ask for a unlock code just says "Invalid simcard".
I dont want to spend any money on a local shop with the result that they cant unlock it.
I hope someone can help me out or point me in the right direction!
Ps , forgive me ignorance. Thought all new phones were sim lock free.
Ps , the phone is flashed with stock firmwar "AP_G935PVPU4APL6_CL9917700_QB11986798_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar"
Can it be that the phone is on CDMA and thats the reason it cant read my simcard? I also saw something about U firmware?
