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 All
I have Rom'd the latest cyanogenmod (CM11 with android 4.4.4) on my phone. So it's rooted. Now I want to sim unlock. Even though I own the phone, Bell wants to charge me $50.00 to sim unlock it. This is ridiculous, and I refuse to give Bell more money.
So here are the questions I want to ask:
I have android 4.4.4 with CM11 on the phone. I want to downgrade to stock with android 4.2.2 - is there any reason why I can't flash the stock 4.2.2 rom
After I have downgraded, I want to use region lockaway. Then I want to go back to CM11 with Android 4.4.4 - will the sim unlock still be around
Can anyone tell me if doing the above will work?

[Q] Reverse Flashed Galaxy S3 from Cricket back to Verizon
Good luck
Hello guys, I'm new to this community. I need help to unlock my Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
The phone was a gift from my friend since my nexus 4 broke. I'm currently on MetroPCS and I need
to activate my new phone, but since it is Sprint I havent been able to do it. I downgraded to Kitkat 4.4.2
and root it to install SSU. Since SSU was not working on Lollipop 5.0
So now SSU says that it is unlocked, but I'm still having the same issue with "invalid sim card." I read some forums
and they said that SSU works only for international, not sure if it works in US carriers like Metropcs. Lastly, I tried looking for unlock codes from paid websites, but they don't have offer any unlock codes.
I need some help with this, if you have a tutorial or know how to please help me. Thanks :fingers-crossed:

I'm currently running 4.4.2 with root on Samsung note 3 N900A. I've unlocked the device so I'd like to know how to update to 5.0 without losing the unlock. I've never flashed roms before but if I have to will I lose the unlock? I can't switch to AT&T since i'm in Australia.
Thanks

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Luckily, upgrading/changing ROM's does not affect the SIM (un)lock status. If you are SIM unlocked (btw, by the model number of your phone, you have the AT&T version), upgrading will not change that status.
This thread will provide your OTA details:
> AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3 > AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General > [ROM][Guide][FULL ODIN FILES][ATT][OC1][OTA with KEEP ROOT][Soft Brick FIX]
Post 4 is convoluted, it should help on rooting the phone for Lollipop if the above leaves you with an unrooted phone (and if you wanted root - I imagine so, to freeze/get rid of the AT&T bloat).
> AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3 > AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [Q] Att Note 3 on Lollipop
Any questions, can ask in either of the above mentioned threads, once you have an XDA account.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

Hi
I tried to follow along with the instructions but there wasn't enough information for me to follow along. I was unable to understand what tools and applications were being used and ended up wiping my entire device.
If there is a more detailed set of instructions that would be great. I am also unable to use Odin as I have a mac. Tried running it in vmware but I just keep getting errors.
Thanks

If you are using a Mac, scope this thread out:
> AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3 > AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General > [12/29] Restore for MJ5 --Doesn't trip Knox and optionally provides root
Heimdall is crossplatform. Read the thread, then ask there how the steps will be different for your situation (Mac of course; also detail what the exact Android version & build number you are coming from - found in settings -> about phone - to make sure there are no conflicts)
I won't know the answer to that question - they will.
Hope this helps.
