[Q] S4 I545 carrier unlock Help please

Ok since i have less than 10 posts I cant post in main device OS/Root posts etc.
Anyways I have a Samsung S4 Verizon I545. How to unlock it?
Gimme the link(s) to where I can download the ROM, software etc. And some steps on how to go about it. Also after carrier unlock/root can i do OTA updates?
I've unlocked two of iPhones before, so I understand the risks associated. Please try to help in simple english.
Thanks to XDA and thanks to any pupil willin to help.

Ask in the thread I gave you. They are the experts on your device. Also use the usb ports in the back of your pc and try different usb cables.

[Q] HTC E9+ Indian edition - Rooting

HTC E9+ Indian edition - Rooting
Hello Dear Members,
I have just purchased HTC E9+ Indian edition and was unable to find any thing on web for rooting this model of phone.
May be because its new phone and hence might take time. However i know when we root initially we have to unlock boot loader and this wipes the phone. So wanted to check that if there is any possibility as I have started using the phone and it will be difficult later.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Tried my best but was not able to find any thread which would be suitable for this hence posting here. Sorry if i posted at wrong place.

[Completed] Odin failed! flashing stock rom on SGH-I317 note 2

Hey folks,
I was facing some issues on my at&t sgh-i317 note 2, which i got unlocked and am using in india.
In order to resolve 3g/4g network access issue, and also an Issue where root checker said that root was not properly installed, and superSU said no binary installed, this were the issues i intended to resolve.
I decided to unroot the phone by flashing stock rom I317UCAMA4_I317ATTAMA4_ATT, but the flashing process on odin failed at "sboot.bin". Need solution.
Note: attached screenshot of my about phone before I started, flashing.
My baseband version was i317ucucne5, and I was installing I317UCAMA4_I317ATTAMA4_ATT rom, does that seem to be a issue? let me, know how can i resolve this. please help.

Will I need the unlock codes if I install CM?

I bought an LG G3 Verizon a year back and since then it has been running android kitkat and has obviously become very laggy over the year. I now want to install CM 13 on the phone but Im afraid that if I install it I will need the sim unlock code again.
Can someone please clarify this for me? I live outside of US.

Greetings and welcome to xda. Firstly please give us chance to get to your post before you bump it, you are allowed to bump a thread after 24 hours.
With regards to your question, as far as I'm aware once your phone has been sim unlocked it will stay sim unlocked no matter what rom you install on it. If you ask your question here though
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help
the experts there will be able to confirm this
Good Luck
