Hi guys, I just got a second hand galaxy s6 edge SM-G925w8. Its currently locked to Rogers, and I purchased a code from cellunlocker.net.
The problem is that when I put a sim from another carrier in it, no prompt pops up as it should telling me to enter the network unlock code.
I have also tried using the dialer methods to enter the code, but it just ends up saying unlock successful when the network is still locked.
The phone is on latest firmware, stock, clean imei, and factory reset.
Does anyone have any suggestions

Hiya,
I think I posted this is in the wrong forum and might not have been very clear.
I'm trying to remove the network lock from a Samsung U600, locked to T-mobile, I want to use it with Vodafone.
I've tried a few different codes I've found here and there but no joy. Can anyone help or link to some unlocking software I could use?
Thanks,
Jonnno.
I recently purchased a samsung galaxy s6, locked to Bell Mobility (my sim is rogers). I bought my unlock code through onemanwireless, but I made a very stupid mistake and followed the instructions for t-mobile phones and installed the factory firmware found here, http://onemanwireless.com/TMobile_Galaxy_S6_Edge_unlock.htm. After I realized my mistake I reinstalled the factory firmware for Bell, which I found on this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841.
However, the unlock code was still unsuccessful, so I followed the other three solutions found on onemanwireless, http://onemanwireless.com/instructions.php#samsung.
When I dialed *#197328640#, I was in the debugging screen, but I didn't have the eight option for phone control.
When I dialed *2767*3855# and *7465625*638*#, nothing happened.
I've checked the IMEI and it's the correct one for my s6. Also, I have installed root checker basic, and it tells me root access is not prorperly installed on the device. I've already gotten the network code incorrect eight times, so I want to know if I'm limited to a specific number of tries before my phone cannot be unlocked again?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
s6 edge 128gb ? Rogers to Virgin. Issues
hi,
i think i do have the similar situation but got unlocked and found your post on googling my phone solution.
i am having s6 edge 128gb initially from rogers two weeks ago from now. my network is Virgin and all initial attempts failed to unlock and now faces some problems ( hopefully can fix and can help each other)
please tell is your model 128gb?
My name is Samir and from Brampton.
May be you can contact me at [email protected] and we can discuss further as you like and can share more info.
Hope to hear back from you soon.
Get your unlock code from your network.
Mine is a Bell 32gb model and the #7465625*638*# code from dialer worked just fine I punched in my unlock code and I unlocked successfully
I purchased a Galaxy S7 online, came with a T-Mobile receipt showing the device is paid in full, upon my request the original owner used the unlock app to request a permanent unlock before shipping and it was successfully unlocked. I received the device about 3 days ago everything works as it should, I opened the unlock app just to double check and requested a permanent unlock again and got this message (Unlock Failed: This mobile wireless device is not eligible for unlock etc...) I know the device is unlocked I tried an inactive AT&T sim and did not request a code. Anyone can tell me why the unlock app does not recognize that the device is unlocked, thanks in advance.
You might have to call t-mobile or log in to your t-mobile account and see the unlock status or your device..how do u know the original owner was able to successfully unlock the phone? It's it works with another carrier sim then the phone sld be unlocked and it sldnt be an issue..maybe it's giving up the error msg since it's already unlocked

99% certain that if the device is unlocked, the device is simply unlocked and that's that. If the SIM works you're good to go and any further attempts fail.
Finally T-Mobile website updated the status of the device as unlocked and can be used with any GSM network, but the unlock app still fails to show that, every time I try I get the same message (Unlock Failed) anyone out there has a fix for this error?
Not sure I understand your question.... the phone is already unlocked so the unlock app will give u an error message....cause it's already unlocked...Good luck man...

I have my Samsung Galaxy S7 Unlocked by app. If I try the unlock app process again I'll get the (unlock failed) that means nothing. Put a active simple of another GM Carrier, if it works you are all set. It won't ask to give any code, it will just recognize the other Carrier. Hope this helps.

Hi,
I've got an US version of the s6 edge model: SM-G925T
Its currently displaying this message
'Network Lock: This device can be remotely unlocked if eligible. Please use the "Device Unlock"application to unlock the device. Make sure the device has internet connectivity to use the "device unlock" application.
I am in the UK, Whats the best firmware to flash the US T-Mobile version or can I install a generic one for the UK? SamMobile only comes up with the t-mobile one.
Also I take it, it just need a unlocking code? Although when inserting a sim it doesnt ask me for a code
Any luck with your phone?
Hey mate, have you had any luck with your phone? I've got the exact same problem. I've been searching for days online for help but no luck. I want to Smash this phone!
