Simlock issue in bootloader after rooting

Hello all,
I was curious on what it was like to root my inspire 4G and so i went for it and everything went swimmingly, i achieved S-OFF and everything but then i realized i wanted to go back to stock for one reason or another (mainly because im squeamish) and so i flashed the phone with a stock ROM, but i accidently hit the SIMLOCK option in the bootloader and although it said that it was unsuccessful, when i turned on the phone i had no service, i took the SIM out and put it back in, no luck, i tried pressing SIMLOCK again in the bootloader, no luck, I am stuck now. i would also like to know how S-OFF is beneficial, and does it matter if it is off if I have a contract with AT&T. please help me get my sim card working again
Well, I did something similar to a friends phone before, he had a lock on his DON so every time he turned on his phone it would appear. And so after 10 unsuccessful tries at getting in the phone locked/burned put the SIM, he had to goto ATT and get a new one...

Will t-mobile replace my phone with "relocked" status?

Hello All! This is my first post so I hope it is in the right forum. Anyway. I recently got the HOS from t-mobile in the US. I unlocked the boot loader and rooted so I could remove all the tmobile bloat. Well after a few weeks for some reason the camera stopped working. It just shows a black screen. So I tired everything. Got back to stock and it still will not work. Long story short I need to send my phone back to t-mobile. I am back to stock with no root or unlocked bootloader. But it still says "relocked" on the hboot screen. Will this be a problem? Any feedback helps. Thanks!

[Q] How can I remove the locked bootloader on a Verizon GS3?

Recently, I messed up real bad and I accidentally installed the firmware of a Verizon GS3 on a T-Mobile GS3. Now it is a Verizon phone :c I already rooted it so I can replace the firmware with a T-Mobile TouchWiz Stock ROM. All I need is the last step: to unlock the bootloader. Can someone (or anyone) please help me remove it? I am currently mentally constipated by the problem and I just have only a couple steps until I return it back into a T-Mobile Galaxy S3. Now that's the question. Here's the story of how it is what it is right now.
So one day, I was rooting my phone to install CyanogenMod because I wanted something similar to 4.2.1 Jellybean. I did everything except I didn't delete the Dalvhik Cache. So when everything was loaded, I see that my phone cannot open the PlayStore. In my mind, I reflect back a couple minutes in the past just to remember I didn't clear what I needed to. Idiotic me goes off and attempts to erase CyanogenMod 10 and I get stuck in a boot loop. I am in a state in which I call "mental constipation". I then accidentally and foolishly install the Verizon GS3 ROM and BOOM. I am in a worse situation. Fast forward today, I root the phone but as a Verizon Galaxy S3. I am almost done but I need to just unlock the bootloader and I am set to return it back into a T-Mobile GS3. So, can someone please tell me how to unlock the Verizon GS3's bootloader?
tl;dr turned T-Mobile GS3 into a Verizon GS3 and I need to unlock boot loader

I9300 Sim Locked After Manual Upgrade

Hi guys, I am newbie @ xda. I am having trouble with my I9300 and I could not find something useful on internet since months.
My I9300 was factory unlocked. I made a mistake while manual upgrading, I install Spain-Movistar sim locked 4.1.2 on my phone. After it my phone became simlocked. I could not solve this problem and I took it to a technician and I paid him. He does not say what he done on my phone and he unlocked it.
Now it is running rooted 4.1.2. He can not upgrade the phone to 4.3 because he can not unlock it.
Please help me I want my unlocked phone again and I want to upgrade it manually in future.
Thanks
Note: I manually upgrade to 4.3 but it locked again and I took it to technician, he downgrade and unlocked it same way.

[Q] help! 3of5 unlock attempts failed with RIGHT number

Have a samsung galaxy s1 i897 'captivate' from at&t phone.
Phone originally bought outright, didn't use for years, now trying to unlock so that a friend can use it.
First updated to the pacrom custom rom with kitkat 4.4 (is this part of the problem??) to test/be sure it would work before reenabling the phone. Got the unlock code from at&t - copied it exactly and it's FAILED now 3 times in a row, afraid to touch it with two left.
Is being under 4.4 part of the problem/does it have to have factory rom?
Asked some samsung people who suggested it may need to flash back to the original factory rom, but even thats not enough, mentioned "triangle" to "set back the clock" to pretend it's never been rooted or run a newer OS. Suggested it should then unlock. But also suggested certain Samsungs of this era were notorious for just not unlocking even with everything perfect which is why I was asking here before using up my last 2 attempts.
Does this all sound right/can only unlock the phone from the original factory ROM and OS version? Once unlocked when I update to PacRom/kitkat 4.4 I assume it stays unlocked or will it create a problem somehow?
If for some reason the last remaining 2 chances bite it, I assume this is what people normally mean by bricked and hopefully there's a recovery process or does locked to at&t forever really mean that?
