[Q] New and Need Help

I have 2 Samsung Galaxy Blaze 4G phones that are locked to T-Mobile. I have never tried to unlock a cellphone at all. I hope that this post isn't a violation of any of the posting rules. I have read through many of the threads about my phones. What I want to do is this. I want to unlock my 2 phones so that I am able to use them on Straight Talk. Is there anyone who would be kind enough to tell me step by step what I need to do to unlock my phones so I am able to do this. I don't know if I need to root them or what ever. I need someone who will give me the instructions step by step. I don't understand the radio things or any of that but I can follow directions. Thank You in advance.

Unlocking HTC One m8 when it is rooted

Hi, I am on T-mobile and trying to purchase an HTC One m8 which is rooted and locked to AT&T. Would it be possible to get the cellphone unlocked even though it is already rooted while on AT&T? I found a service on ebay which provides unlock codes for $3 but in their description it mentions that I should not try to purchase the code if my device is already rooted. I am a complete noob when it comes to android so please explain in detail. I searched around on google and in other threads but was unable to find a definitive answer to my question. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I can't answer your question about the unlock code BUT you probably can unroot the phone and flash the stock firmware before using the code.

Can I send someone my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 to unlock the bootloader?

Hello!
Forgive me if this is the wrong forum to be posting this question. If there is another place to post, please let me know!
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5. The bootloader is locked and I just don't have the time to mess with it. I would love to mail it to someone who could help unlock the bootloader and put on a ROM like Lineage OS. If anyone here would be able to help with this, let me know your price and how much time it would take to do this. The 6.X upgrade was performed so I've heard it might not be able to be downgraded to allow the bootloader to be unlocked. Really this is all out of my knowledge-base so I apologize if I'm not explaining everything correctly.
Either way I'd love help with this. If you are the US that'd be ideal as mailing internationally is no fun.
Thanks!

Galaxy s5

I bought a galaxy s5 used and found out that it is sim locked through sprint. After trying to unlock it I also found out that sprint is one of a carrier that u can`t unlock! I was told that it can be rooted to work with other carriers and I think that xda has instructions on how to do this. I`m not a programmer or developer but I do investigate and try my best to learn. It would be appreciated if someone could help me.
Thanks Vesten

View this forum in a browser on PC or on your phone,,look for the XDA search bar that says "search all forums".
In that bar, type:

Then you will find what you are looking for, you'll also find more information and possibly custom development for you device.
