Hi there, I have CleanROM on my trusty evita device on Rogers Wireless and needed to unlock it to use in Asia. Can anyone confirm that the SIM unlock would work regardless of the ROM?
Also, is there a way to use the code provided without a foreign SIM? My entire household has Rogers...
OP question is being answered here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2395697&page=2, therefore this thread is no longer needed.
Thread closed.
Thank you

PS:where i can find a free SIM unlock for this device?
First of all welcome to this part of the forums, second of all wrong section.
There is no such thing as free sim unlock for this device, you will have to pay for it. Though most operators leave it open there are only a few that locks it.
Flashing a new ROM will not unlock it.
Thread reported to the mods to be thrown in the trash bin.
Whats the developmental aspect of this thread??
None.........so please post in General.
Warning given.
Hello,
From what I have read if I understand correctly if I root the verizon droid 2 global, then install a custom rom the phone will be unlocked and I can use any provider outside the usa.
Can you confirm if this is in fact correct?
Also I live in Florida but have a german cell phone with a german chip that I use here in Florida. If the above does unlock the phone, when I put my german chip in the phone will it work in the usa or do I need to also do the band unlock first?
Thanks
JB
No. Custom ROMs don't support the SIM unlocking mechanism of the D2G, nor they disengage the SIM lock.
You have to unlock the device with an unlock code to use it with SIM cards that aren't Verizon-issued.
Thank you for the information.
I guess there is no way someone can shoot me a bone and provide the unlock for free since ive been a member for 3 years? It would be appreciated greatly...

The unlock code is specific to each handset, so no-one has one that they can give you.
Hello everyone!
I'm writing for help from the experts. I don't know if this had been answered somewhere else but i looked all over the place and i didn't find anything for this phone.
After trying and trying for a few days now, i have not been able to unlock my verizon SGS3 so that i can use it with other sim cards.
I currently have it running on JB 4.1.2 it is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked thanks to the EZ- Unlock technique.
But when i put in a non verizon sim it says "sorry, this SIM is not supported. please....."
Can it be done ?
Thanks in advance
BTW: i've tryed the "galaxsim", and "Sim unlock" by chainfire as well as all the other similar apps i could find on the playstore but they have not worked for me.

Verizon S3 is sim unlocked for GSM, but not sure about the cdma. You can use it with t-mobile, att etc. There is a thread in android development forum about how to setup s3 as global phone. Try that one if you are using gsm.
Thanks doesn't hurt....

Hey !
Thank you so much for responding. I am trying to use it on a gsm network but it wont register, that's why i figured maybe its locked somehow. Also because of the message in the top that says non-verizon sim, it says sorry this sim card is not supported etc..
Where can i find the thread you mentioned?
Thanks again.
Go through the below thread to check how to setup the Verizon GS3 as world GS phone :

Ok so i worked on it till very late last night, and was able to do everything in the thread. My phone now shows the network apn in the apn list in the settings and i was able to get rid of the non-verizon sim message that poped up at startup.
But my phone still won't register on any network, I've tried to different sim cards and tried in global settings as well as gsm/utms auto or manual but it wont register onto a network.
What can i do ? Is it locked by Verizon or something ? Should i flash a different rom ?
Thanks for your invaluable help, i really appreciate it!
Have you tried using phoneinfo? Try using the phone info app to select preferred network type by going into device information. Find link below to the app. Try with different network type

If this doesn't work then try with lte sim card.
Thanks doesn't hurt....

What carrier? Did you change the APN to your carriers? If not, that's your problem.

Yeah already try that. I live in Chile so I have a foreing carrier.
I think it has something to do with being a verizon phone in a different country.
There still no way to root my phone with android 5.0.1 ?

Hi,
I've acquired a N950U recently and unfortunately there is no Tmobile device unlock app installed on it.
I searched for official Tmobile stock firmware but on every one I tried (many many) there wasn't that particuliar app in them.
I can't yet root the phone as this is a bootlader v4. I also tried to switch with U1 firmware but can't use my simcard or create an APN.
I get always sim card is not supported and in APN section a message that I'm not allowed to create any.
Can anyone help me to get the T-Mobile device unlock app compatible with my N950U?
ps: I already searched this apk file but none of which I found was compatible with my phone.

Hi Ibuprofen,
I already tried those unfortunately it's not helpuf with my issue. I'm looking for the Tmobile unlock app for N950U to unlock carrier through a third party.
The app isn't available on the playstore or website i visited.
Thanks for your help
For information there is no T Mobile unlock application on the phone and getting it will make my life so easier
