[Completed] i9500 - Factory Unlocked phone is asking for sim network code - XDA Assist

i9500 - sim network is not working with this app
I bought a Samsung I9500 Factory unlocked phone and I took it to India and its asking for Enter Sim Network Lock Code.
I rooted with CF-root and used reginal unlock software but still no luck.
When I tried to get a sim network code from a vendor she said lock does not work which he provided as I dont know the carrier.
Any help is really appreciated.

Hi there,
I'd suggest asking here for help: [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S4 | Ask any question | Noob friendly.

Thank you and thread closed!

No, just flashing another (stock) firmware won't SIM unlock your device.
Best is to ask in the [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S3 Ask any question. thread.
Here is a thread about SIM unlocking your device: Sim card unlock Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9305 ... but this needs to downgrade the firmware version.
Maybe this tool works in your case: [SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT V8.0] Drivers, Backup, Root, Recovery + MORE [GSM] ... but SIM unlock is not officially supported AFAIK.
EDIT: Found this "trick" in another device's forum, but some users reported that it also worked on your device: Free UNLOCK N7105.
Maybe worth a try?!
Alternatively you can contact the carrier and ask for a SIM unlock code.
Good luck !

[Completed] How can I find out the carrier the phone is locked to?

I got a sim-free phone Samsung Galaxy J1 SM-100H from the UK and am based in Africa. I do not know the carrier the phone is locked to as it says SIM network unlock code when I put in a local sim. How can i find out the carrier the phone is locked to? And is it possible I can unlock it online for free or for a cost? Thanks..!

Well ... you can ask the previous owner ... if available.
I guess not.
There is not much about this device/model on xda.
I found only this thread: How to root Galaxy J1?! by MiHawkBeast.
Maybe you can register on xda and ask there.
Or in the [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly. by immortalneo.
Hopefully someone there has a clue what to do.

[Completed] Help needed to buy sim network unlock code - samsung galaxy core prime

My friend have got Samsung Galaxy Core Prime (SM-G361F) as a gift. It is bought from UK and have sim network lock in it. Device have got bricked when trying to root it. So i flashed G361FXXU1AOH4_G361FLUX1AOG1_LUX firmware downloaded from sam mobile through odin and its working now. Still the sim network lock is there. Now we need to buy an unlock code for this and all the sites asked country of origin and carrier. Is it still UK or Luxemburg? Also pls reccomend a trustworthy unclocking service if you know.
Thank you for using XDA Assist.
I see you asked your question in the Android Q&A forum.
You should actually be asking your question in your device specific forum located here
As far as recommending some one for the service we do not do that here on XDA, but you can always read what other users have done in the section.
Good Luck

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
SIM unlocks are completely separate from actions performed by rooting, or installing custom ROM's, unfortunately. Also, you may find that if you get an unlock code, it will not work while running said custom ROM (I personally ran into this problem before). Samsung's are horrible for unlock code prices, but if you shop around you may find a good deal from a trusted source.
Ideas for that can be asked through the following thread, where your device experts are found:
> Samsung Galaxy Note 4 > Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [NOOB FRIENDLY] Ask the question!
Please note, you will need to have an XDA account to be able to post there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
