Hello there,first of all thanks for all your hard work,you guys ROCK,i did follow the insructions on how to root the ATT samsung galaxy SGH i927,it worked fine(got superuser and busybox),but i still cant get it to work on a different network here overseas,it keeps asking me for the unlock network code,can you please help??
rooting has nothing to do with "sim unlocking" a phone so it can be used to work on another carrier....some rooting methods have a step where you can unlock the phone but it would have to depend on the phone. You can either purchase a code online from ebay, third party websites or see if there is a free method on xda.
Thanks for your reply,actually i did root the samsung galaxy captivate (i897),and it is working fine with the local carrier(here overseas),so why wouldnt the i927 work as well???do you have any links to free sim unock for the SGH i927 please??
the unlocking method for the captivate isnt the same as the glide I believe so I don;t think there is a free method to unlock it, not as of yet anyways.
Is there a free unlock code for the I927 could really use thanks
Hello,
I have a AT&T i727 SkyRocket Galaxy S2, I'm currently trying to unlock the phone. I purchased an unlock code from CellUnlocker.net. I'm unable to unlock the phone doesnt give me an error besides unsuccessful unlock. I tried getting help from CellUnlocker.net, very nice people but problem is it seems like they never ran in to this issue before. I was told I had to be on a certain baseband (modem ver.), I was also told i had to be on a stock Rom..
I have searched the forums and i was unable to find answers.
I read around that "usb unlock" is easier and better way to unlock it, I just dont know how to do that or who provides that service.
My question has anyone had any issues unlocking this version of the Galaxy S2 ?
Is there a simpler way of unlocking this phone ?
Any other recommendations of websites that can provide a USB unlock ?

I'm getting it today maybe.
Phone's similar to Galaxy S 3 mini but not identical. Screen is smaller, dimension is little different, no NFC, different screen type, and no gorilla.
What I wanna know is if extended battery for S3mini is compatible with T599.
recover bricked sgh t-599
hi all
i have tried to root my galaxy exhibit t599, it is running on android 4.12.
i used odin 3.04 to flash cwm version recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.7-golden.tar, than i tried to boot into the cwm recovery but it didnt work so i connected to the phone via adb and ran "adb reboot recovery". now my phone keeps on restarting, seems like it cant get into the recovery but will keep on reboot to try.
the only other access i can have to the phone is download mode, any help would be appriciated
thanks
Why is there no support for the t599?
Is there a plan for a t599 forum?
I would also love to see a forum for the T599 (Samsung Galaxy Exhibit in US, Samsung Galaxy Ace II e in Canada) myself too.
Here are some known specs:
ST-Ericsson NovaThor U8420 (w/ ARM Mali 400)
2G GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100
Android 4.1.2
4 GB internal storage
1 GB of RAM
microSD card support
3.8" screen w/ 480x800 resolution
1500 mAh removable battery
Other than the smaller screen size, different radio band support, lack of NFC and smaller internal storage, looks like it's nearly identical to the international Samsung Galaxy S 3 Mini. Uses the same SoC.

I just got this phone. I think it's called Samsung Galaxy Exhibit, T599. I'm also trying to root the phone but i'm having problems iwth it. I dl'ed the zerg_rush_root.rar file and ran the .bat file. But it kept giving me errors like location not found, unable to mount, etc... I want to know if i'd be able to reboot into recovery, then run the zerg rush.rar file from there and if it would work that way. Anyone had any success rooting this phone yet? If so, how'd u do it? I'd really like to know cause i want to erase all the bloatware.
Thanks
:good:

I just got one too, only about a gig available for apps so to be able to use something like ICS SD Binder would be nice.
The zerg_rush_root.rar did not work with my T599, I think it's just for the Exhibit II 4G
The naming of these phones does not help with searching!!
Exhibit 4G (Galaxy S variant) 2011
Exhibit II 4G T679 (Galaxy W variant) 2011
Galaxy Exhibit 4G (software update of the Exhibit II 4G) 2012
Galaxy Exhibit T599 (S III Mini variant) (this phone) 2013
The cydia impactor root method works on the t599. I put an ext4 partition on my sd card and am successfully using the link2sd app from the play store.
You can follow this thread in S3 mini forum for now. [System Dump] SGH-T599 (4.1.2) JZO54K.T599UVAMB5
You'll find a systemdump, rootmethod and original recovery to flash with Odin. Good news is also that Triangle Away works to reset custom binary count.
Hopefully someone is trying to build a custom recovery for it as well.
Thanks everyone for the info. Finally have my t599 rooted.
Any rom for this phone yet ?? T599

How did you finally root your SGH-T599, I've been looking everywhere to try and root mine and I have had ABSOLUTELY no luck at all.
Any help you could give me on getting mine rooted would be awesome and greatly appreciated.
Thanks for any help/instructions you can give me.

Help Unlocking rooted SGH-T599N
BRAND NOOB*
I've got the Metro PCS sgh-t599n
was rooted by my ex before he split*And Iv been trying to unlock it for almost a month since by myself. And I don't know what I'm doing.
So far, the only thing I was able to unlock was a virus onto my step moms laptop. Very nice way to say thanks to her. SMH. (My dad was able to fix that but not without being super mad =/)
Someone on here must know how I can unlock it??I don't have one of those box thigs but I can connect it to my computer with USB.*It is locked to metro PCS but I already have the T mobile sim card (and like a total rookie) I activated (and paid for) prepaid service through them 3 wks ago... Sigh.*Guess I was a little over confident I would be able to figure this out lol I have done soooo much reading on it its insane
I have already canceled my metro service and didn't have them for 3 months prior, so getting my network sim unlock code from Metro isn't an option.*Also, (like a big giant noob) I thought I would be cute and try to guess the unlock pin when I had some time to kill one day*SMH.*Now I may have made it to where I will need a PUK code also
*IDK... That's probably obvious tho*lol.*If anyone can help me with any advice or information, or even just point me in the right direction you would definitely be my hero. *This is the longest I have ever been away from my 6 yr old and although we Skype often, if I am not home (or somewhere with wif ) he has no way to reach me atm, even tho I'm paying for service.*Boooo. Lol. Someone help the newbie! Please and thank you =)*
root for t599
download 4shared on your device and search on 4shared for framaroot and follow instructions on framaroot :highfive:
There are some go to YouTube and search eker626 he helped show me how to root and get custom rom

I'm considering picking up a J1 prepaid from verizon, but it doesn't look like there's any development for it at all. The model number is sm-j100vpp if that helps.

No. You can't use roms for another device on another device. This includes other S3 variants unless it's been ported over.
Do not even attempt to try anything to unlock the bootloader. Its a VZW device and unless someone has already unlocked it which I highly doubt it may never be unlocked

Hopefully, I will get a reply..old phone, lol
So, my cousin sent my grandma a used s2 sgh i727
Locked to AT&T network... I've tried to unlock using unlocking apps after I rooted the phone.. None is working... I don't wanna pay 30$ to unlocking websites for a phone that cost less than 30$ itself... Lol.......
1. Is there a way to unlock it that you think might work?
2. Is there any custom rom that I can just use to flash the phone and escape the locking forever?
I prefer 2 actually.
