Unlocking Verizon galaxy s3 for Canadian provider fido. Can it be done? - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys.
I have a close friend in Canada that does not have an upgrade available and their birthday is coming up... I can get another galaxy s3 otherwise. Is it possible to unlock the Verizon galaxy s3 and have it work in Canada with the service provider fido? Do I have to get an unlock code or buy one? The phone is already rooted etc.. if that matters at all. Thanks.

Now, I searched the forum but I'm still not convinced all Nexus S phones are carrier unlocked and since I want to use it with my Bell SIM card, it has to be... or else I need to know how to unlock it.
So, can anyone confirm that canadian Nexus S are carrier unlock ?
Thanks in advanced
All GSM Nexus S phones are unlocked. It is likely that you just need to change the APN settings from Koodo to Bell.
That's what I wanted to hear!

I bought a brand new AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337, but I never activated it while in the US. Now I live in South America and cannot find a way to unlock it without it becoming region locked.

Unlocked Samsung S8+

Hi, newbie here and not sure If I have posted in the right section. I had bought a Samsung from 1 Carrier (Rogers) wasn't happy with their services and went to another service (Bell) in order to do that, I had to get the phone unlocked (3rd party) which I did within about 5 weeks into my contract with Rogers.
My question is, I am told by Bell after weeks that because my cell is unlocked and not programmed by them but by Rogers, Samsung Video Calling won't work as in ever on Bell Networks,,very frustrated, has anyone heard of this? I am in Canada btw
Thanks All, hope this isn't a repost..

How unlock used Samsung Galaxy Book 2 (Verizon) so I can use T-Mobile SIM??

How unlock used Samsung Galaxy Book 2 (Verizon) so I can use T-Mobile SIM??
My friend bought a used Galaxy Book 2, put in his t-Mobile Sim and message came up that stated something to the effect that his device needs a Verizon Sim. Even with this message (as someone said it still worked) it did not get a signal.
He cannot return this as he bought it from some 3rd party he will never see again.
He has T-Mobile as a carrier for quite a few phones and has some sort of lifetime extra device -T-Mobile sim plan he can use so he does not want to move just this device to Verizon.
The question is can this be unlocked by Verizon store? And even if it is and APN settings are changed would it work with a T-Mobile Sim?
I know nothing about these LTE laptops and not sure at least for Samsung if the radio in it is somewhat universal or compatible with most US carriers.
Thank you for any advice.
I appreciate it.
Sincerely
Peter
