I had the same problem. I got into CwM, and whiped the cache then rebooted. Worked the first time. Two weeks later it happened again. Samsung said its a mechanical flaw in the phone that happens to about 2% of the phones. Its something thats fixed through the warranty program. Hope that helps.

it's in warranty, right!!.. claim it. in case it's not in warranty, didn't you tested the sim while purchasing the phone?
what and how exactly it happened, what did you do?

Are you sure he didnt rent the phone and then he sell it to you for money? Did they completely disable the phone or is the lock screen just locked?

I'm going to reply here because I had same experience. Download Odin. Download the latest TMobile odin firmware ( I believe its OJC.). Flash the phone.

Samsung's are one of the easier phones to work with. I don't think you will have any problems. Just stick with the one guide and don't get overwhelmed by all the other threads. If you end up needing help, just let me know.
Good luck i was in a similar situation with a s5 but the imei was blocked , couldn't be used on any network with in Australia even after i flashed new firmware.

I well may be making an Ass out of U and Me, but it is a reasonable assumption that if they locked the phone, it's because it still belongs to them.
True

Samsung Galaxy S8+ Live demo unit - reinstall android

Hello,
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S8 plus at a nice price. I know that I can't use it as a phone as sim card won't work, but is it possible to reinstall the original android so I can use it as a tablet?
If it's possible, can you please link me to some guides or something?
Thank you

Any idea if there is any chance for me to use it as a normal phone? I've read that some of them may have that antenna connector and SIM may work after you re-install the samsung stock android.
who would sell a demo unit already, you steal it :silly: lol

there is no way to make it a fully functional phone because you don't have IMEI allocated to your phone...
Try this

Gonna try it. I still wonder if the sim card will work, as ive read that most of the demo units dont have sim slots. Mine has sim slot and everything else is working inclusing fingerprint
Thread cleaned. Tampering of IMEI is strictly against the Forum Rules. Please don't bring that discussion here on XDA.
