Hi . I got my S3 and it has sim locked to 3 network . Is there any way that i could unlock it for free ??
+1 getting mine this weekend and it's been confirmed that it will be locked to 3 Ireland and im with Tesco Mobile, can someone please post unlocking codes or method as soon as it becomes available otherwise i wont be able to use my phone.
Perhaps the mods can make this a sticky as well no doubt there are many people looking to get it unlocked.
Galaxy S unlock from the Play store works on SGS1 & SGS2. Not sure if it works on the S3 though.
If you want to try it I suggest you root first then backup your efs folder in case you lose your imei. Worth a try I think.

Thanks mate but id sooner not risk it in case, i recall shortly after the Galaxy S2 was released i think it was Chainfire posted a program or app which could unlock the phone and worked a treat and was for free,hopefully someone else can do similar ASAP.

If your phone is rooted PM me a link to your nv_data.bin and I will take a look, initial analysis of the GT-I9300 nv_data.bin indicates a possible simlock block sign, but I cannot be sure without more files as an example.
Thanks to Zanr Zij who supplied his nv_data.bin file to me first.
hope someone releases an app for unlocking soon
My first ever Samsung handset, I don't have a different operator SIM to check if my handset is simlocked, is there a code i can tap into SGS3 to find this out?
Many thanks!

I though one of the main advantages of the international phone was that it came unlocked. Am I missing something?

If you buy directly from a network, there's a chance the phone will be locked to them. Sim-free ones are obviously unlocked.

getting my s3 tomorrow too. its locked on 3 UK, any idea how to get it unlocked for free?
well got mine through yesterday, i used phones 4 u to upgrade and using the code in a previous post shows there is no locks what so ever on my handset
If Odia can't unlock it, no one can!
He did brilliant job with SGS2.
Fingers crossed!
I received my S3 on theTthree network earlier today.
It has a 3 boot up logo but is not sim locked at all.
I have tested with Orange and O2 sims and both work perfectly.

What country is that mate?
I've never been with 3 but some people are saying that their phones are always locked whereas others are saying they are not but it would be useful to have unlocking codes that work, im reluctant to purchase before then as i don't wanna have to spend €20/30 to unlock.

Not very well at the moment since no one has provided their nv_data.bin files, note this offer is open to anyone and the phone does not have to be locked to help.

Hello Odia,
I sent you the files you asked. Please let me know if you need anything else. I would be really pleased to unlock my phone
Thanks guys.
Well its as I suspected from the file provided by Zanr Zij, there is a 256 bytes sign after the second simlock block, only I am not sure what its signing at the moment, so I need a before and after unlock by code nv_data.bin file or someone with a locked phone who will allow me to try somethings out over TeamViewer, I will take the required backups, but cannot guarantee the phone will not be corrupted.
Haven't yet purchased the phone yet so afraid cant be of any assistance but im keeping a close eye on this thread as soon as there is a successful unlocking code ill purchase.

Hi
Can a phone that is simlocked to Three (3) network be easily unlocked with the marketplace app? And can it then use any vodaphone, O2, Orange etc sim?
I ask as normally when phones are unlocked they can't be used on the 3 network???
Thanks
I have just bought my SGS2 unlocked with a Three contract. Not sure if they can be unlocked if they are simlocked though.

A Sim Unlocked phone will work on ANY network providing it has been unlocked via IMEI or Unlocked from the factory.A market app might do it but a sim unlock via IMEI is the only 100% fullproof unlock method.From what Ive read market unlock apps can relock again.I dont understand why an unlocked phone cant be used on 3 either.Just pay to have it unlocked via IMEI.If you payed .... how much for your phone??just paya couple a bucks more to be on the safe side.
There is an app for the s2, developed by one of the developers here at xda (can't remember which, sorry!), that unlocks the sim. It scans your phone and generates the same key the mobile phone company would use to unlock your phone, so it works every time. It's free too though it can take hours to find the key. Have a look on the Android market. Think it might be developed by codeworkx or pulsar, I forget.
Edit: it's made by chainfire. sorry chainfire!! It requires root access, do make sure you have that by running a rooted kernel.

Hi
I should of mentioned it was the Samsung Galaxy S2 I wanted to unlock! I had a look on android marketplace at the app and someone mentioned that they unlocked their 3 phone in 10 seconds with the app, so I went ahead and bought the phone off eBay. Is it easy to root the phone?
Unfortunatly the market app for unlocking didnt work on my GSII with Three.
Just said: cant find unlock code.
Handset is rooted.
Anyone knows different metod?

Thats scaring me now! Though it did say some of the newer SG2's might not work with the app, heres what it says :
"!!! IMPORTANT NOTE: On some newer SGS2 devices, it does not work at all. You can try "Galaxy_S Unlock" app from "Helroz", but beware, it's unlock method is much more dangerous !!!"
Oh and another person said that it said "code not found" but on reboot it was unlocked.

Hi guys,
I am a noob here, but i know a little! i have a SGH-I717 and i cannot unlock it, i know i can do it through cellunlocker and sites like that but i wana do it without paying any money!
I've rooted the device thanks to Da_G and installed superuser and busybox, tried the galaxy s unlock app but it doesnt work, it gives an error when trying to save in step 1, so i tried locating the efs folder myself and i did, but i cant find the file nv_data.bin, does that file get created when i insert an at&t sim? i dont have one and i am not in the country now!
please any help with this is appreciated, i am dying to use the device and i cant, my flash counter is at 15 now i think and still i cant reach anything!
thanks
Is all the aggravation really worth it? If I were you, I would just pay the 5-20 bucks, then enjoy the phone the way god intended it....functionally!!
Sent from my SGH-I717R using XDA App
Its so frustrating, and after doing all this and spending that much time i just cant give up now
So i guess no one has done it?
I have also tried to unlock it for free and nothing has worked so far. I guess the galaxy s unlocker app by helroz doesnt work since there is no NV_data.bin in the efs folder. I manually tried looking for it but no luck.
I've also paid cellunlock my $20 two days ago and no code yet. I'm kinda frustrated that can't use this phone.
If anyone knows where I can unlock this phone, even website, let me know please. Cheapest option of course.

What are you talking about? UNLOCK. NOT ROOT.
Sent from my phonablet AT&T Galaxy Note - please forgive if typos
This is how to unlock via AT&T
Guys if you are with AT&T then don't bother with any of those methods to unlock. It's quite easy actually. Just call AT&T and let them you know that you will be traveling and need to unlock the phone to use foreign sims. They will ask you for the phones IMEI number then provide you with an unlock code. You then power up your device with any foreign sim (any other than AT&T will work), it will ask you for code, you enter it, and done. Your device is now unlocked and free to use with any GSM chip. Have done it with our 4 phones 2 GS2 and 2 GS Notes.
I don't think your allowed to most external links to Ebay, pretty sure it's against the rules.
If you go to Ebay and search the seller name it should come up...
Not sure if it works for at&t, mine is Rogers, and Canadian carriers do not give out lock codes for free, no matter how long you have been with them.

At&t wont provide unlock codes for certain phone like: the Iphone or the Skyrocket. And the Galaxy note is probably on that list (cant unlock)

Appears to be Bharti Cellular which I believe uses 1900 MHz. Could be wrong though.
If your network uses 850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz (the 1700/2100 come through a radio flash though) then yes you could use the AT&T/Rogers Galaxy note on 3G/2G in India

Hello everyone!!!
I just got my at&t gnote from bestbuy, and doing some research for the unlock, I found a site called unlockclient (dot) com
The process in this case doesn't include a code to do the unlock like other sites. They let you download some software first and after you make the paypal payment, they give you a "pin" that with this program, it resets all the phone codes to zero....
So, it'll be much appreciated if someone knows about them, to post here the opinions that might consider...

I emailed the developer about his unlock software, he has not had a chance to test anything other than the stock GB rom that ships with our phone.

It seems that your phone is a branded version that is attached to a carrier. You can try one of those websites that will SIM unlock your phone, but I'm not sure if the XPERIA S can be, yet...

It seems like this. because I tried many ways to unlock the phone. I notesed while trying to unlock the bootloader from services configuration "Bootloader unlock allowed: NO" and i couldn't connect it in fastboot mode. it didn't locate the driver even with manual installation.
do you have any suggestion? and what are those sites if you know cheep website?

Returned the money because they can not do it.

I called my provider to do it for $ 500 for decoupling.

I unlocked my Mrs's phone via cellunlocker webpage mentioned earlier. Had to wait a week, but can use any sim now. Though, the bootloader status hasn't changed (still says "no").
Then I bought an unlocked phone from eBay, thinking the bootloader will be unlockable, but it says "no" in the menu as well. :-(
I am wondering if you get it cheaper on the web - certainly those who made their way into unlocking world of SXS recently will make tonnes of money. Would appreciate if you could share if you have seen it cheaper than $40 please.

Dear Valued Customer,
We just wanted to keep you updated on the status of your order. Despite our efforts, the manufacturer has informed us the Sony Ericsson Manufacturer method is delayed until further notice.

We are very sorry about this situation once again, as we are sure you are eagerly awaiting your phone to be unlocked.
Your order will be returned as "Not found" and a full refund will be issued to you.

Ps they did refund my 39.99
Ok so I just got myself an SGS3 I9300 off e-bay, it hasn't arrived yet but I'm just curious to know will it be locked to the Orange Network? I had it shipped to my uncle in England who in turn checked it out and then sent it to me in Greece, he told me when booting it up it had an Orange boot up logo. He didn't have a micro-sim to test it. I'm also quite a bit of a noob when it comes to Android so I was just wondering if anyone could point me out to some ways of getting rid of the Orange boot logo plus if needed a way of unlocking the phone to any network?
tl;dr Got SGS3 hasn't arrived, might be locked to orange, want to know how to get rid of orange boot logo and how to unlock carrier lock on it if it has it.
Thanks for any help posted!

Yes it will be locked, unless the person previous who had the phone had it unlocked.
There are sim unlock tools on XDA which you can use

Could you or anyone else that reads this possibly link me to some tools to unlock the phone? I had a bit of a look and found some information about something called Voodoo unlock. Digging a bit deeper I found out that it's outdated though? Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance!
Edit: Also to mention the previous owner had not even taken the phone out of the box so no he hasn't unlocked it.
