Hello guys, I'm new to this community. I need help to unlock my Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
The phone was a gift from my friend since my nexus 4 broke. I'm currently on MetroPCS and I need
to activate my new phone, but since it is Sprint I havent been able to do it. I downgraded to Kitkat 4.4.2
and root it to install SSU. Since SSU was not working on Lollipop 5.0
So now SSU says that it is unlocked, but I'm still having the same issue with "invalid sim card." I read some forums
and they said that SSU works only for international, not sure if it works in US carriers like Metropcs. Lastly, I tried looking for unlock codes from paid websites, but they don't have offer any unlock codes.
I need some help with this, if you have a tutorial or know how to please help me. Thanks :fingers-crossed:

Yes.

Verizon doesn't sell the Active version so there will not be one that works for VZ.
