this might be confusing , but i would like to know if you change the ROM , (since we wipe / update the bootloaders , other things)
does it unlock the phone when putting a Custom ROM ???
and also is the only way to unlock by calling the service provider ???
Nope and nope...
Go to the Google Play Store... Galaxy_S Unlock by Helroz
Once unlocked, always unlocked.

yes true..but i was thinking more in terms of general....say S2 , or S3....
(and thanks for the cappy! ..didnt know it was there. )
Don't know bout galaxy s2 or s3. U'd better ask in those specific q & a forums.

You can use something simple like "ShootMe", it allows you to take screenshots easily.
More details please, can't find it in market place!

You can only do screenshots on rooted devices. If your Exhibit 4G isn't rooted, you won't be able to take screenshots.
Still the question is the exhibit rooted? I can install 3.party apps.!

Sent from my SGH-T759 using XDA App
do you not understand? you're the one that doesnt know what you are talking about. btw, everyone has been answering your question. you must be rooted to take screenshots. do some research before you come in and tell us off.
a nice search on the market will get you shootme:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bw.picme.local&feature=search_result
we all know that you can install third party apps. the question is, does your phone meet the requirement(s) of the app? in this case, no.
and that attitude will not take you anywhere. no one here has to help you; this is not customer support

If u rooted, u can get tons of apps straight from the play store to get your job done...
You can make screenshots without rooting your device with android studio.
Android Studio is the software from google for Android application development. It is a large program but if you don’t find any other software you can try it .You have to connect your device with your PC and enable the development options on your device
I hope it helps
Wondering what is the current way to unlock my Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE from Rogers. Is there a free way to do so or do I need to go through the unlocking code websites (if so which one is the cheapest)?

Thanks was this way tested on Canadian phones as well? Also do I really need to bring the phone back to stock ROM? Will that unlocking method make my phone permanently unlocked or will it disapear once I flash to another ROM? And finally what modem should I flash it to, I saw several in that thread, not sure if that has to do with the service provider or phone type?
You should read more. You have to bring to stock, make a nandroid of where you are now. It will permanently unlock you.

What i have to do if i want to lock my phone's recovery and download mode?????
One of my friends found a Galaxy S, and when he tries to det in recovery and download he could not!!!! He tried everything but nothing!!!!!!
Is the phone hard-bricked?
If not, is he doing the procedure correctly?
Is this simply found or "found"?

Its not bricked.. He turned it onand it asked him for lock code.
He did not steal it because he found the owner and gave it back!!!
But I can't find out why he could not achieve R and D mode...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Maybe the owner reported it lost / stolen and the carrier locked it down, because recovery and download would allow a wipe and re-use by the finder.
Maybe he just wasn't doing it correctly. Those things can be pretty picky and easy to mess up. Not sure if you can really "lock down" a hardware function like that, but maybe.

Do you mean that he reported its imei and the carrier locked it down.????
My friend tried everything. He its not noon as he flashes ROMs to his i9100
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Well im also not sure what a carrier's capabilities are as far as locking down a lost / stolen phone, but surely they have some method..And dont forget that the carrier's reps scan the imei at the store, or by putting in a sim, it detects the imei, so they have it. Perhaps they can send some kind of temp kill via sim?..
Hey XDA! My brother and I are having a problem with his Verizon GS3. After a fight with it we finally got it completely rooted (we rooted it while he was running 4.1.1 stock) . Every time we try to flash a ROM the phone does it and then during boot up it gives an error message. Something along the lines of "unauthorized software has been detected. Please go to your nearest Verizon store to restore your device." not exactly what it says but close to that (I don't have it in front of me right now). Does anyone know what could be wrong and how to fix it?

Boot loader was locked upon ROM flash.
Vzw ez unlock for Verizon galaxy s3 will unlock it.
If you can not find in play store.
Google it and you can download and place on SD card to install the app that way.
Make sure you are rooted

Isn't the boot loader unlocked in the first step? The boot up screen with the Samsung logo has the unlocked symbol on it. Sorry for the dumb questions, the only device I've rooted is my Galaxy Nexus and that was a breeze.

No its still locked use the ezunlock and it should let you flash a rom.
It really is. Hopefully when the X-Phone comes out it will be easy like the Nexus. Rooting the GS3 has been such a nuisance. Thanks for the help everyone! I'll report back with how it goes.

So ezunlock is no longer available on the play store apparently. Every link that was supposed to take me there didn't work, just says it "We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server." Any other apps that I could use?
Hopefully this works. Threw the apk up in my drive. I'm not going to leave it there long, so grab it quick. Make sure to allow installs from unknown sources in developer settings.
Removed URL
Post here when you have it.
Edit: Removed the URL since I'm not going to leave it up all night. Google ezunlock, it's literally the first link you see.

& that's the same reason I turn to Galaxy Grand before last few months.. gave my acep to little brother
really feeling sick by waiting for official release.
so the better way is this only, if we don't get an update, there is no way to wait for nothing.

my ace plus is also a gift from my sisters and thats the reason i have to keep this phone forever
i too have a kindle fire and a tab 2 but my daily driver is ace plus :good:
I had an Ace than decided to give to my sister .
Then one night my dad said to look into Ace Plus specs ,before looking into I said it is worthless ,and told that I do not need a device .But then he told me that he already bought one .This was a reason why I hate before asking to me though.
It made me happy ,but time passed and I became tired of this phone . :/

I thought i'd have a better flashing experience on the i9300, but i have to say......i didn't... the /efs partition can be easily broken, newer basebands dont work with wifi on any kernel other than stock and no roms except touchwiz-based support the SDcard....that's just horrible. the i9300 is pure crap when it comes to customizing screw samsung and their /efs dependencies and screw their exFAT sdcard format
