Hello,
I am thinking of purchasing a used HTC Magic (Mytouch3g) form someone for 200. I live in the US, but Ido normally live in Asia. Can I unlock the Tmobile one to use elsewhere? (note. I do have Tmobile for now in the US, but I would like the option to switch). I used to have an HTC Touch diamond, so im not completely new at flashing. Anyways, will rooting and flashing allow me to switch networks?
Thanks
trev
No it wont. Flashing new roms has nothing to do with unlocking your phone.
than is there a way to unlock the phone?

Yes, some sites sell these unlock codes.
Look it up elsewhere, this is development forum.
So i have an HTC One S that i Bought and it has a blocked IMEI i bought it for dirt cheap because the IMEI was blocked. Is there anyway i can unblock this phone? Like maybe rooting and it putting a custom rom on it? Will this fix my issue? If anyone could help me answer this or give me some feedback it would be awesome
Thanks.
You most likely won't be able to use it in the country you bought it in unless you get the network that banned the IMEI to remove the ban.
It's useless now. You could unlock it and use it on another carrier.
If you're in the UK it won't work on any network.
All you can do is sell it abroad.

I live in Italy and correctly use a Motorola Droid 4 Verizon.
I would like to buy a Samsung S Relay 4G but I do not know if this also works with the SIM and European networks.
Can you tell me if it works?
Thanks a lot.

Hi neighbour, yes it works. I have mine from Canada. the phone is penta-band that works also in Europe. You may need to unlock the SIM when you buy it from the US.

What do you mean about "unlock"? I need root permission?

No, he means SIM unlock, while I meant if you buy it from Canada for example, it is mainly already unlocked, so was mine. US ones are locked by standard.
When you have one with sim locked, you can unlock it from unlocking websites or do it by yourself as the instructions here on the forum
All Relays come locked from the factory to only work on the t-mobile network. You can unlock them for free, though I hear you may have to start with the old firmware to do so, and then update it once you're done. That's still not hard, we have the files on this forum to flash the old firmware.
i have mine from canadagsm.ca and it was (brandnew but) unlocked already. thats why I thought in Canada it is mainly unlocked in general. But I think I also read that all the phones from canadagsm are unlocked.
This phone is a t-mobile exclusive, so they all come locked from the factory. That doesn't mean there aren't places which buy them new, unlock them, and then re-sell them. It just means that Canada isn't a magical country where phones aren't locked. Sadly.
Works well in France.

Thanks!

Has anyone verified if UMTS/900Mhz is supported? I've googled this and there are conflicting information:
Sites that say UMTS/900MHz is supported:
http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=3791
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206523
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Relay_4G
http://www.canadagsm.ca/products-Samsung_Galaxy_S_Relay_4G_T699_Penta_Band
And then sites that say it isn't:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-T699DABTMB-specs
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_relay_4g_t699-4914.php
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2482670
What's the conclusion? If the phone is locked into T-Mobile's network, then it doesn't support and if it's unlocked then it supports? Or culd it be that stock ROM doesn't support UMTS/900MHz but installing some custom ROM enables it? ... Or could there be multiple variants of this phone?
PS. Could someone list all supported UMTS frequencies from unlocked T699:
Type "phone number": *#*#197328640#*#*
Then it should open menu, choose following entry: "[x] UMTS..."
Then it lists all supported UMTS frequencies, like this: http://www.howardforums.com/attachme...2&d=1280324484 (screenshot isn't from T699)
I took this guide from here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-gal...-galaxy-s.html

At&T T-mobile are the prefered network to buy mobiles from Ebay.
Even I bough this model from Ebay but it's a useless phone now. Selling back on ebay.
I have the same device and I've been hacking away at a true root and or bootloader unlock. As well as Sim unlock. With no success. But I did just speak to a customer service rep at us cellular and she said it can be Sim unlocked but has to be plugged up to a device that they have in their cooperate stores to do so. So I'm at the point where I believe I'm going to be shipping my SM-N915R4 to the closest US CELLULAR Cooperate store to have them Sim unlock it. Im also still trying to modify CHAINFIRE's cf-auto root to gain root access. If I can accomplish this I feel sure I can change the preferred network settings along with several other settings to be able to use this CDMA device on GSM network.
Did you get it unlocked from the US CELLULAR store?

Did you have any luck with network unlock for GSM?
I'm in the same boat --- however I now know mine has bad esn to boot
I am getting ready to send mine off to have meid repair service done
perhaps they can repair with a verizon number/firmware?
sucks that people sell this way with no resolution for buyer.
I offered to pay balance due on US Cell acct to get unlock code, but they would not do.
Any info/assistance appreciated
