Try following this guys advise http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/regional-lock-t3110340 if that does not work then you will have to somehow obtain a UK sim card.
What country are you from btw?

The steps are to flash the unlocked S8+ firmware to your sprint device. The unlocked S8+ firmware has no bloat. You can always reinstall the sprint firmware back when you are returning your device (I think it's as easy as that)

I use updato.com these are the steps. Use the Odin provided from the Post.
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=01B5D91D8DDB11E7963AFA163EE8F90B
That is the most recent update. It's for the S8+ if you have the S8 I think it's Sm-g950u1. Not so sure. XAA is the unlocked firmware

No it's not... I'm sure you have to but unlocked firmware is AQH3 and for you to get to beta I'm sure you needed to move to the most recent update. It could work it could not. I'm sure the modified Odin will work but again could be wrong.

Slow awakening

Hello guys, i think i'm having some troubles with the power button awake. When the display goes off and i try to unlock it with the power button after about 30 seconds, sometimes it takes almost 2 seconds to wake up. I already did a factory reset yesterday, but the problem keeps coming. What could it be?
UPDATE: I noticed that this problem occurs also with the fingerprint, not just with the power button.
Are you on EMUI or a custom ROM?!
EMUI of course.

just flashing another firmware will not void warranty unless you unlock bootloader or root your device...
if its in warranty why bother doing it by yourself just claim warranty..

I could claim but I don't know if they will understand my problem.. probably they will give the fault to some app or something that I did. That's why I asked to you guys before, I'm gonna try this firmware thing first.

huawei mate 20 X Bootloader

Yes chinese mate 20 X can be unlocked 100% sure
Awesome. Seriously interested in this phone but have never had an unrooted phone so more details would be much appreciated. What software are you using here? I'm presuming this is only possible on the Chinese variant and not the global? Will you be attempting to install Magisk? Thanks in advance.

I am so much tempting to install magisk but i need stock boot.img file to patch and flash via adb but its risky haha lets see what happens
Great stuff. Thanks for the fast reply. I'll be watching for any updates with interest ! I can't live without adblock, afwall and titanium. Plus I'd be wanting to remove any bloatware which for me includes everything Google.

I'd prefer the global rom, the only reason I chose the Chinese rom is because the L29 didnt come in 8GB/256GB.
