galaxy S3 SCH-1535 help - General Questions and Answers

I have this Verizon S3 running firmware 404 rooted I used root checker it says it's rooted.
What's my next step to get the bootloader unlocked so I can use T-Mobile sim. I went ahead and downloaded Samsung drivers and Odin on my Pc. Any help would be great thanks

Sim/Net lock and bootloader is not related in any way. For remove the carier (sim/net) lock from your phone use GalaxSim Unlock.

Hi,

Well thats interesting...
Use chainfire or galaxsim unlock. They require root.
Yes, what you need to do is enter the SIM card unlock code that your carrier should have provided you with when you bought the SIM card - if they didn't give you one you'll need to ask them for it.
This is a security feature of the SIM card, and is not the same a network lock, which is coded into the phone's firmware and prevents it from being used on other networks.
I bought the galaxy s2 "unlocked".
But after experimenting with android i noticed that the phone was someday locked to a network and it was unlocked ( using an application ) and sold as "unlocked".
When i installed the new jellybean firmware, in which the installation contains the modem tar file, automatically arranged the nv data file to locked as it was the first time.
Now I have unlocked the phone using the galaxy s unlock application and moved to cm10 again
Thanks

The older version of Galaxsim Unlock worked for me.

The carrier is often not a great help and they sometimes charge a fee for unlock code. Plus the waiting time is frustrating.
I contacted support where i bought my phone and they provided no help.
It seems my phone was originally locked to O2 telefonica even though I bought it "unlocked" online. I suspect a lot of the grey imports have this problem as they temporarily unlock it and then sell it as unlocked. If you need help unlocking it again they're not interested...
I will stick to only Google branded/play store from here on, then I wont need to flash (or wait until the phone is obsolete) before finally getting an update via Samsung.
my phone GT-I9100 on XXLPQ and CF-root
Jumping on the end of this thread.
I have a i9100m (bell - canada) and I have the CM10 nightly on it now. Since then I decided to unlock the phone -seeing as there were so many apps that I could do it with.
Not one has succeeded - Every app I have tried, except the one that you have to pay for from the store.. ANYONE know how much btw??
We still have the Bell account - upgraded the phone on the account to a Siii - and they still want $75 to unlock the Sii - thieves!!!
Looking for a suggestion - nothing on the phone is needed yet.. so .. should I downgrade it.. unlock with something in a different rom.. then back to Cm10? or is the galaxsim pretty cheap.. will work on 4.1.2 and I go with that?

I used the galaxy_s unlock found in play store to unlock mine. Also installed the xxlpq ics firmware using odin before unlocking the phone.
Tried other apps such as galaxy unlock but lead to no success.

How do I unlock the bootloader on S3 running 4.2.1?

I have searched far and wide and cannot find a bootloader unlock method that will work with the Galaxy S3 that has already been updated to official 4.1.2.
The EZ-Unlock app will not work for 4.1.2 (only 4.1.1 and before)
The open1your1eyes0 method that was updated in February 2013 does not work either: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974114
What do I do? Until I get my bootloader unlock I cannot do anything.
Phone is currently Build Number: JZ054K.I535VRBMB1

Hi all.
I finally had to do a factory reset on my Verizon GS3. Poor performance and yellow factory mode text floating on screen.
I have obtained root access on the phone, however ODIN3 flashing a recovery image fails. My understanding is that I need the bootloader unlocked for that to work. Is there a reliable way to do that?

Your bootloader is locked forever, unlocking isn't an option.
If you want anything other than stock you'll have to use Safestrap recovery and modified stock ROMs like everyone else with locked bootloader Verizon S3.
Safestrap is deprecated. At least their site says dev. Has stopped. There's probably a fork of it on github somewhere, but any safestrap you find won't be by the original developer.

I don't know, I use the Verizon S3 ROMs on my device but it isn't a Verizon device, but I spend a lot of time in the Verizon S3 forum, I see new users looking to customize their device all the time.
Here's the download for it
forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=2405#downloads
Read this thread though, if you have encrypted your data, it will cause bootloop. Yes, it isn't supported anymore, BUT, the Safestrap still available still works.

I use it on Straight talk, my device is a Straight Talk S3 SCH-S968C that uses Verizon towers, my motherboard is actually stamped with the Verizon SCH-I535 model number, its rebranded as Straight Talk's device. Only difference is they disabled the 4G on the Verizon S3 when Straight Talk rebranded it.

No, you can't flash AT&T firmware. That would surely brick your device. You can port the AT&T firmware somewhat easily, they are mostly the same but have different modems and a few other minor differences. I can link you to a thread for porting the US S3 variants.
No that's alright I'm on a note 3 anyway, but I've got a good place to start so thanks!

[Q] Galaxy Slll 1535 Developer Edition root?

Was trying to root my Galaxy Slll SCH-1535 with the Samsung GS3 toolkit but noticed my phone isn't even close, well maybe close, but not close enough to any one on the list. I have a 16 GB Developer Edition that came as a 4.1.2. It has open source licenses and claims to be a truely universal phone that i can use on any network. My build version is JZ054K 1535VRBMB1, which is not an option in the toolkit. So how do i root it and trade out the Verizon for Metro Pcs? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if I'm in the wrong place I apologize. Thank you in advance!!!
I didn't think it was that unlocked... I thought it was only unlocked bootloader. Anyways, have you searched here? There's several guided floating around on how to flash to another carrier.

OFFICIAL NET10 Samsung S4 4G LTE SGH-S970G Thread

I'd like to start a thread regarding the NET10 Samsung S4 4G LTE SGH-S970G.
Has anyone seen a way to unlock this device? Neither of the standard 2 methods of unlocking a Galaxy S 4 seem to work. I am unable to reach SERVICE MODE MAIN MENU beyond step 4 using the method described here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282683
From what I have gathered thus far this might be able to be resolved by downgrading the radio/baseband however I would need an older stock firmware for this device and I do not believe one exists - and I am afraid of bricking the device using any other stock firmware.
Does anyone know of a method I might be able to carrier unlock this puppy?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same phone, SGH-S970G, and am unable to find a root option for it either. Has anyone found one?
EDIT: (01/14/14) SafeRoot also worked for me. Thank you to all for your help, I really appreciate it!

Root/rom sch-s968c...?

Ok, so I know this isn't the I535 (verizon s3), but I have to ask.
I got the S3 from Straight Talk. It's running CDMA on Verizon. It says CDMA-V right on the box.
Now Ive had the I535 before and it was easy to find ROMS for the beast. But this, this SCH-S968C, I have never seen it and I cant find any
good sources to ROOT it. Or even find ROMs for it.
Any help would be great.
Many thanks! =)

as the post above said cydia impactor will root this phone in about 8 seconds .as far as the roms some people have been able to get the sch-i535 firmware to work but I don't know,all I can tell you is don't use ez unlocker to unlock the bootloader . also before you get to far make yourself the debrick image.otherwise you will be stuck with a hardbrick like me
---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------
to make the debrick image go into adb shell or terminal emulator
and type this
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/Unbrick.img bs=4096 count=50000
.p.s. if it works for you could you please send it my way.thanks .
Also backup your IMEI after you root. You must be rooted 1st

to get the unbrick image you will have to have your phone rooted,and superuser installed .then using adb shell(available in the android development tools bundle from google) or terminal emulator(from play store runs on your phone)in whichever you choose .you would the type su hit enter.grant root access .and then type

I got a tracfone sim and cut it into the shape of a micro sim. I inserted it into my GS3 and everything works fine. It still says No Service on the notification bar but data, messaging and calling work. Hopefully this helps!
