unlock info ? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello everyone i bought s6 from a friend and my ee sim never worked after 2 days he gave me the phone and said its unlocked my question is if i flash a notmal stock rom will i loose unlock is it possible to upgrade s6 software while its rooted thanks

forgot to mention when i had the phone it had no su installed meaning it was not rooted after getting the phone unlocked i saw su on and checked for root and it was rooted so if i flash stock rom will i loose unlock amd would it be possible to upgrade the phone to new firmware when it comes out while rooted

Where did you unlock it ? If su is there he unlocked via z3x or octoplus... Its permanent... Youre free to flash anything you wont lose unlock

i didnt unlock it so not sure and yes su is on it thank you very much

will i be able to update if new firmware comes out

Nope. Because it's modified system.. Flash stock

Please create an backup of your Rom using CWM and then you can try to update/flash your phone.. If your phone is locked again, put your backup back in and search for an patch for multilanguage with arabic support..

NO, the phone will NEVER be locked again
SIM LOCK is more like a hardware based security, not software.
you can flash stock safe

after you unlock the sim, you have to flash custom recovery and then root
then you can flash custom rom through recovery
BTW, its possible the phone can be lock again only if he unlocked the sim via root exploit
if he used an IMEI calculator, yes it is ok

at this point, your phone is not unlocked via root exploit
so you can do whatever you want, it will not lock
and the unlock being part of hardware, it will never lock back unless you want it to happen

he flashed stock rom as the method of calculating the unlock code based on imei is valid for this phone on 2,3,6
he could do this on kk risking to not work and losing the money
maybe he thinks the code resets the bootloader which happens on devices such as htc
but i have here a clear example:
if you use the yellow triangle away app from chainfire and you flash another rom, does the yellow triangle appears again?
i guess you know what is triangle away, search it on google if you dont
and the triangle thing is a hardware code, so is the sim lock
Hope i helped you!

Hi
To sim unlock you need unlock codes , there is no free way yet to sim unlock the S7 , flashing a different firmware with Odin or a custom rom will not unlock it
My phone is already unlock. If i use odin or flash new rom will it still stay unlock ???

It's for unlocked bootloader versions. Shouldn't be for g930t

Chainfire released it just cause... I mean people are really hoping the bootloader gets unlocked(not by carriers of course).
Autoroot works
I recently rooted my tmobile sm-g930t with cm autorotate and working with the device emulator was weird for me so I opened it under the file got fastboot when you get to that step it's after u unzip superuser update and copy all files into the unzipped Fast boot folder when opened access emulator from there the first 2 steps [commands] delete already done them selves so I did last two and boom rooted

Relock the boot loader for Samsung s8+ please help.

Hi, thanks for everyone who would like to help me, I've rooted my phone s8 plus ages ago, and I didn't like it, coz I need the bank app and android pay works again, so after flash it with stock Rom of Ee network, I've installed android pay and doesn't want to work keep telling me, your phone rooted and your bootloader unlocked, ive tried to find a solution, and I used ADB and it isn't working for me ... is there any other solution please?? Thanks
Nope...

Relocking won't bring back apps that need Knox to be 0x0. If you flaahed a custom boot image to use systemless root then your counter is permanently at least 0x1

How to downgrade to oneui 3.0 or 2.5 from oneui 3.1

hello guys , i need some help .
my device is s10e,G970U1 with unlocked bootloader. today i flashed the bl,ap,cp,and csc from oneui3.1 by odin ,and i get a locked bootloader ,so i want to downgrade to the unlocked bootloader,is here anyway to do that .
maybe i do not need the twrp but magisk is a necessity ,but i cannot flash the patched ap in odin ,what can i do now .
i just unblocked the bootloader at feb 14 ,and now i can not use it ,i am not felling well lol.
I haven't figured it out - trying to flash TWRP or flash the Magisk AP soft bricks. The UI 3.1 bootloader version is 5, and the old one is 4 and it won't let you downgrade since it is, technically, locked now. Though KNOX is still obviously tripped, so samsung pay still doesn't work on my watch.
I don't think it can be unlocked again.
G9700 Snapdragon with OneUI 3.1 and bootloader 5 is working with Magisk v22 and OEM unlock too...

If bootloader is same that you want to downgrade to then yes. If your bootloader upgraded from let's say U1 to U2 or S1 to S2 then no you cannot downgrade back to U1 or S1. And on 3.1 on some devices you do lose the bootloader unlock I believe.

Samsung pay didn't work because Knox was tripped, and it still doesn't work on my phone even after being re-locked.
Given the update apparently bypasses the token used to unlock the bootloader, I think we are SOL. People waited years for such an option, and apparently Samsung is working to lock that down.
Now I need to consider if I want to drop $350 for a new S10e still on original firmware, and then another $75 to unlock. I suppose if I can get $150 for my current phone that's not an awful deal.

They are out there. Some new and refurbs for $250-$350.
In any event, I had mixed feelings about rooting in the first place. I pretty much only used it to limit constantly charging my phone to 100% every night. Not going to throw any more money at a phone already over 1.5 years old. A few years from now, I'll probably regret losing root.
hello, I have Galaxy S10E (Snapdragon) SM-G970W with bootloader v6, can anyone help me to unlock this so I could able to flash custom from, TIA.
