This is the info on my sns. I got it in a trade from a member on rogers in Canada.
I know its not correct for a stock unlocked sns. Can anyone tell me anything about it. It is an I9020a.
Thanks for any info.

Check if your bootloader is unlock by powering off the. Pressing up volume and power button at the same time. I have a different build number and mines stock.

Hey guys,
Some questions from a newcomer. I have already searched the forums but could not find a straight forward answer so your help is really appreciated.
1) How to check if my bootloader is unlocked or locked?
2) Once my clockwork recovery mod has been flashed, device is rooted and I have cyanogen mod installed, how do I go back? I mean that how to get the stock recovery, stock android, stock kernel back so it is back to normal in all aspects?
Thanks for your help guys.
1. When you turn your phone on, you should see a picture of an unlocked lock under the Google logo. If there's no pic, then its locked.
OR
Boot into ur bootloader and it says the status there
2. Odin or a nandroid

Read the rooting guides in the development section will tell you everything you need to know.

You need to be running a rom that lets you put the phone into "modem" mode so you can reprogram the PRLs and what not.
I used this guide

OK so for some odd reason the adb doesn't recognize my phone when I plug the phone in...does anyone know why?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Nvrmind...I didn't have the drivers....but now I had it flashed over to cricket but all I have is talk and text. No data at all. I was supposed to get a new number from cricket but when I call someone its my sprint number...I know it needs to be programmed, but what would cause it not to program? Would it be that I flashed a different radio awhile back ago? He said the prl was the newest...are the prl and radio be the same thing?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
ok so finally I have my phone flashed to cricket, what all can I do and not do? are root, recovery, roms, scripts all still in play? Im assuming since im with cricket now that radios don't work...am i on the right track?
Ok my xoom 2 has been password locked thanks to my 10 year old brother who doesn't know what the password is.... (oh yay) unfortunately usb debugging wasn't enabled so running any commands to hard reset my xoom is a no go.
I have searched and searched for the last few days with no success in finding a solution so i'm going to have to go beneath the hood and have a play around.
I already know how to tear down the xoom as I've already tried doing a battery pull.
Does anyone at all know anything about the internals that I could pull to wipe the device or return it to stock?
I really don't like the idea that I have spent a few hundred dollars on a pretty looking frisbee.... :-/

When restating phone while holding volume down, phone says unlocking phone can damage you phone hit volume up to continue

no freaking way. Can someone else confirm?
I think hes talking about the Odin prompt that tells you loading custom OS could cause problems... Bootloader doesnt appear to be unlocked.
It be nice if it is
I'm not doing the ota though till Dan says its OK just in case its not and just in case the new kernel won't let his unlock work

download mode
i think it just puts it in download mode so you could flash thru odin or adb.

They cant patch something when they don't know how it was broken. The whole point of him not releasing the bootloader unlock is that they can't stop us from unlocking if they don't know how we do it

I don't know if it's the Odin prompt or a new prompt. Somebody please verify

Ya mods should delete or lock before a noob thinks they're phone is now bootloader unlocked when all that happened was the phone was entered into download mode...

Yeah that says Custom OS not unlock the phone and it was there before the update. If you are getting a prompt about unlocking, that's something different.

Hi guys i am new to xda ...yesterday i unlocked the bootloader by wugfresh's toolkit but after i unlocked the bootloader my phone freezed at the green robot screen i pressed up ,down ,power buttons but the phone didnt respond so i just pressed the up down +power button did just shut it down,...and started it again (i had my heart in my mouth)...then it started successfully +i also rooted it successfully.....my phone workx like a charm now.....so my question is ...has this happened to any user anytime during unlocking the bootloader ???is this a common issue??is my phone safe??plzzz....reply guys as soon as possible
Search in the wugfresh toolkit thread. Sounds like you had a temporary glitch. Your phone should be 'safe', although I'm not entirely sure what 'safe' means.
