Hey all. I did the SIM unlock through the service menu on my ATT I747 and I was wondering if this option is available for the Verizon S3 if you flash it to 4.1.1. I am on 4.1.2 on this verizon s3 and am going to downgrade to 4.1.1 The service menue is there on 4.1.2 but some of the options are missing. If I flash to 4.1.1 Does This Work???????
update
I did the 4.1.1 root injected flash, and the service menue stops at network lock option and from what I have tested and read its already sim unlocked anyway. I put an active att sim in it and it worked just fine although with this phone you can only get EDGE network on this phone with a att sim or straight talk sim. Its rooted, BL unlocked custom recovery, and JellyBeans ROM installed. Still no matter what I do or try it is stuck on edge. If there is anything else I can do to make 3 and 4g work on this Verizon GS3 through GSM straight talk for the love of God someone please fill me in. Or if anyone wants to trade for an att version of the GS3 PM me and lets do it.
Verizon GSIII is restricted to 2G EDGE outside of VZW. You may able to get 3g(hspa+) in Asia or Europe.

I recently Purchased a Rogers Samsung Galaxy LTE (SGH-1727r)
I want to root/unlock the phone. If I do this, Will I be able to use the phone on the Bell/Telus network?
It is my undrstanding that I would nee to purchase an unlock code from one of the various websites. Would I also need to get an active "pay-as-you-go" SIM card in order to unlock it? Or am I able to make due with the Bell/Telus SIM cards I have from my other phones?
If u root and unlock, yez, u can use this phone with telus and bell.
Purchase an unlock code online and once its sim unlocked, root it and install CWM. You don't necessarily need a custom rom for the rest but if u do I recommend TPC v3 or MHX-Superlite 3.0.
Flash the telus vk1 radio in cwm and you're good to go.
Thanks
Thanks for the quick reply. It can be a little overwhelming at first.
I can confirm this I have my i727r running on the virgin network right now which is run by Bell. Just need to get the unlock code or take it somewhere to get it unlocked.
I recently upgraded my phone to replace my Galaxy S3. I still have it rooted and bootloader unlocked, with 4.3 ROM
I was wondering, if this phone is already unlocked for international use? Or do i still have to take it in to a VZW to do their magic?
Also, do i need another Sim card from vzw or how exactly does the phone work for international usage?

I just used the "activate owned phone" and its working fine.
Thank you so much i really do appreciate it
If I have the AT&T variant and flash the universal firmware. Could I then use the phone on the Verizon network??
If you sim unlock the phone then yes it should work.
Hey guys, I've got an unlocked T-Mobile s10e that I'm currently using with straight talks att sim. Service isn't that great at my house with att and my wife's Verizon gets all her bars. Can I just swap with the Verizon sim, or do I need to flash the Verizon firmware. I'm very familiar with Odin and flashing with the s6 and s5, but I do currently have a locked bootloader. If I do need to flash the Verizon firmware, which one do I need to use? I've been a member here for years but couldn't get into my old user name so had to create a new one.
