Hello, first post. I have been researching for a couple of hours now. Looking to extract the unlock code from the Samsung Intercept M910. It appears the phone has a locked EFS structure called EFS_Private and the traditional unlockers are not working for this device. Any help would be appreciated, i have many that need to be serviced. Maybe these phones can just be reflashed to generic?

Hi Guys,
I got this unlocked Samsung Captivate phone from CL. Works fine. But I was wondering, since the original nv_data.bin is no longer available, is there a way to know what is the unlock code ???
The guy from whom I purchased the phone does not respond to my emails.
Since there are cases that updating to higher Versions might ask for unlock code once again, I am just being well prepared for the worst.
Thanks

Yeah me too
Yeah me too!
As long as you stick to the ROM that was originated from Captivate ROMs, you should be fine. Most of those get screwed up and need re-apply unlock code are from flashing those European ROMs tweaked for Captivate.
Also, I read there is now a way to extract unlock code even in Froyo 2.2. I'm pretty sure Dev section has a thread about it.
Hello, I have a question about SIM Unlock and nv_data.bin.
First, sorry for my English
I have a Samsung Galaxy 3 I buyed to Vodafone Spain. The phone came locked by the carrier, and with Android 2.1. When the 2.2 roms began to be available to other carriers I flashed them with ODIN, so now, I have the latest version from Spain FOP (not Vodafone). I have never rooted the phone, or unlocked bootloader or anything else. Then only I have done is flashing the phone by ODIN and wipe it to factory reset.
The problem I have now is that I want to sim unlock it to use in other carrier. So I buyed a code (with the phone IMEI and the model(i5800)) to a code seller. I have buyed codes in this web for other phones (Nokia, Huawei and Sony Ericsson) and always the code have worked perfect on the phone, unlocking it perfectly. So I purchased the code for my i5800, but the problem is that the code they gave to me (8 numbers), doesn´t work, it says code invalid.
I have contacted with the seller but at the moment, they have no replied me. So, I found a tutorial in internet that says that if I extract nvdata.bin from the phone, I could get the code with a Windows app called Samsung Galaxy S Code Extractor(or something like that), so I decided to get the code by this method, since this method doesn´t require to alter system o root or anything, only extract a file by ADB
The problem is this method didn´t give me any code, is like nv_data.bin have losed the code in my phone.
So, my question is, if my nv_data.bin have losed the code, can it be the reason the code I buyed doesn´t work? I means, when I introduce the code in my phone, does it compare the code with the code inside nv_data.bin?? or have nothing to do?
Thanks in advance
i apologize for the long post
I recently purchased a samsung galaxy s6, locked to Bell Mobility (my sim is rogers). I bought my unlock code through onemanwireless, but I made a very stupid mistake and followed the instructions for t-mobile phones and installed the factory firmware found here, http://onemanwireless.com/TMobile_Galaxy_S6_Edge_unlock.htm. After I realized my mistake I reinstalled the factory firmware for Bell, which I found on this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841.
However, the unlock code was still unsuccessful, so I followed the other three solutions found on onemanwireless, http://onemanwireless.com/instructions.php#samsung.
When I dialed *#197328640#, I was in the debugging screen, but I didn't have the eight option for phone control.
When I dialed *2767*3855# and *7465625*638*#, nothing happened.
I've checked the IMEI and it's the correct one for my s6. Also, I have installed root checker basic, and it tells me root access is not prorperly installed on the device. I've already gotten the network code incorrect eight times, so I want to know if I'm limited to a specific number of tries before my phone cannot be unlocked again?
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Get your unlock code from your network.

Hi everyone,
My step sister brought back the Samsung Galaxy J100FN and its region locked.
I just rooted and i am looking for a way to unlock it now. I have looked at methods such as changing the nv_data.bin but it seems i don't have the same data at the offset depicted.
Z3x has integrated support for this phone so i think there must be a way to do it.
Any lead
Thanks.
What root did you use?
I've been searching for a number of hours now, and I haven't found the answer I need. I have a rooted Galaxy Avant from T-Mobile with TWRP installed, everything is backed up and ready for any customer firmware to be installed. I need to get this phone unlocked. T-Mobile says they won't unlock it because I haven't had an account with them for over a year, but it was a prepaid service plan and I bought the phone outright. They just refuse to provide me a code. I understand that even if I HAD a code I would have to flash the MetroPCS ROM and use IT to input the unlock, but what I'm hoping for is a way to unlock with a customer ROM or something like that so I can use it with Cricket. Everywhere I've looked has either lead me in the exact wrong direction and tried to get me to purchase an unlock code, or it has only told me how to input an unlock code I already have. I'm fairly knowledgeable about all of this, but I'm stumped. Anyone who can give me a hand with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
