I am a proud friend of an owner of A galaxy S4 (GT-I9506 Variant) From Orange carrier.
Here's the big problem :
Sadly, My friend bought the S4 SIM LOCKED to orange, and he needs the sim card to be accessed through that phone (THAT'S HIS ONLY PHONE) And we need to unlock the sim.
Phone is an S4, nearly 2 days used ONLY. is Rooted with Kingoroot (I know, not safe BUT ONLY WAY) plus it's a Snapdragon 800 (SWEET XD )
Anyone help me? Please?
Thanks!
Edit:
Yeah. Looks like payment-based unlocking is ruled out for now. I need to unlock the phone WITHOUT paying anything.. Help?

If it has a Simlock you need a Sim from that provider to use with or else you can't call someone and they can't call you.
If you Unlocked it, you can simply use any Sim card from every country, But you need to sim unlock it.
Hi All,
I like in Canada and i'm with TELUS... anyway i bought this phone on ebay and it was 150 dollars great deal... I have always just bough an unlock key without issue but i guess this model i535 is different ( damn you verizon)/
I just want to unlock it so i will be able to use my local Telus...
the phone is running 4.42 and kernel 3.4.0
if someone could please let me know the EASEIST way to unlock this - I have never rooted a phone before but have to learn some how! is there no other way to unlock this than rooted it?
Please reply and help!
Thank you all very much

It should be sim unlocked out of the box. Have you stuck a sim in the phone and tried to add Telus APNs?
The only root exploit available for the VRUDNE1 4.4.2 OTA is to use Towelroot. There is no bootloader unlock available for this OTA which means there is no chance for AOSP nor downgrading the firmware to anything prior to 4.4.2. Safestrap is available but you would only be able to dual boot another VRUDNE1 based rom, nothing else.

Of course it didn't, the sim card would belong to the previous owners phone number etc. You need a sim from your carrier with your info, phone number etc. See my post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58582227

Unfortunately I can't. I think the true owner of the phone is required for unlocking it. I need different ways to unlock it. Can I just install another samsung s8+ firmware to this phone?

Can i just flash a rom that is SM-950FD to this phone? This rom has a dual sim feature but the SC-03J only has one sim. Will this work? i mean its okay even if its just one sim i just want it to work on my country.
Here are the difference in hardware:

No. There's no firmware or ROM that will SIM unlock it.
You'll need to have the original owner unlock the phone for you OR purchase the phone already unlocked - no software can unlock it for you.
Docomo and Softbank are extremely strict when it comes to unlocking a phone, you need to have an account with them for a few months, pay off the phone, and you'll be able to unlock the phone. If you don't then having it unlocked *remotely* is out of the question unless you sent it to someone who can unlock it for you.
Sorry to revive the thread after so long.
I have similar situation. I have a NTT Docomo s8+. I have unlocked it as well, it now works with my ATT sim in USA.
problem is the annoying Docomo apps in Japanese.
I am not able to rid of it completely.
Can I flash a US-Unlocked stock ROM or any custom ROM ?
pls let me know how.
Pls note my phone is Snapdragon based, (unfortunately most ROMs are for Exynos version).
