unlocking samsung galaxy from verizon
i tried and with the htc droid i did it but with the galaxy icant see if someone out there can thanks

There's an easy way
I just unlocked my galaxy s thanks to "galaxy s unlock" app found in the market.
It was easy and fast, also well explained. It doesn't even require any code, just a reboot. I had to reboot manually in order to access the phone after the automatic reboot and didn't have any problem to use an orange sim card 2 minutes after completion.
I am on I9000 froyo 2.2.1 (bought 2.1 10 days ago).
My phone was locked on bouygues telecom (french network).
Hope it works for you !

Unable to unlock at alll
Hi.. I tried unlocking using Generate Unlock Windows. But it always threw nv_data.bin not found error.
Then i saw this thread and tried with 2 apps on the market:
Samsung Galaxy S Unlock Tool
Samsung Galaxy S Unlock Froyo
but with both I was asked to root. I tried installing root through 'Update.zip' but it threw "update.zip e:signature varification failed" error
I am totally struck. Please help!!!!

try downloading the app in post 4, or go to ebay and search for unlocking i9000 or unlocking galaxy s.

I have downloaded the app in post 4 .
I have a galaxy gt i9000

buildnumber FROYO.XXJPU
2.2.1 was on it when I bought it secondhand locked to Orange in the UK .
Sorry but totally new to smartphones & apps & when I launch the app I get

Did you read the post#6 at all? Try reading again. You can not use update.zip files with 3e recovery. You need to be rooted to use these tools. So, again, try reading the link posted in post#6 again.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU AND HELROZ IS A GOD!!!
This totally worked for my Bell Samsung Vibrant GT-i9000M rooted with Superuser (from App store).
If anyone wants the official Bell unlock code it's 09182086, BUT it never worked for me even after 3 days of talking to customer service (over 6 hrs) and going to a Bell store. The number was verified 4 times by Bell.
One of the tech guys even gave me another code 62189513 but it also obviously didn't work for me, but it might for you.
If none of the codes work then use the app developed by Helroz and give him a donation as Bell and their $75 dollar unlock fee can kiss my [email protected]@.

Bell Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant GT-i9000M

Hi,
I have a question regarding my current Android Version and whether I can install CM 10.0 or not.
PDA: I9000POJV7
Phone: I9000XXJVO
CSC: I9000BOGJV3
Firmware 2.3.3
Baseband I9000XXJVO
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVO-CL182937
[email protected]#2
Build number: Gingerbread.POJV7
I have CWM installed, at least I have an app called CWM Manager v1.50 those this autmatically mean that I have root?
In the CWM Manager app it says "Current kernel: CF-Root 3.2" so i assume it is rooted right?
The reason why I ask is that this phone is from France even though I am from Germany, so it has this software branding of "Bouygues Telecom".
Can this lead to any problems?
Can I directly install CM 10.0 without installing 2.3.6?

Hi, I have japan galaxy S ( SC-02B).
To unlock this we need to put this from dial pad *7465625*638*# and a menu pops up to enter MNC/NCC code and secret code. After entering MNC/NCC of your network it will successfully lock to new network and you can use SIM card of that network. That method works for any network and phone use to remember the entered code, so you dont have to enter code everytime, just once is enough.
Recently i moved to cyanogenmod 10.1 with modem binary of sc-02b flashed.
Now i dont see any network and at every reboot it asks for SIM network unlock code.
Can anyone help unlocking or where to find this sim network unlock code.

[Q] root 2.2.1 on bvjs4 firmware

hello,
i am looking to remove the simlock on my sgs, in order to do this however i need to root. i have read this post this page and every post since feb 2011 (the release dat of my firmware)
however i dont wants to just pick one of the kernels and go at it gung-ho
i am locked to orange in the UK, it is an orange branded phone.
here is my firmware details:
PDA:I9000BVJS4
Phone: I9000BVJP4
CSC: I9000ORAJS4
build info: 2011.02
buil number: FROYO.BVJS4
any help would be greatly appreciated, i have tried replying to the thread but as i joined yesterday i cannot reply untill i post 10 posts.
can anybody suggest which CF-ROOT kernel i should use?

what baseband verision is ? at settings/about phone . If it is JPY you can root with cf-root for JPY .

baseband version is I9000BVJP4
also there is this info
kernel version is 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1 (i have downloaded an app from the market that checks root and it says im not rooted)
im not sure if the [email protected] bit means anything??

Baseband does not equal firmware, baseband is another name for.modem. So don't use cf-root.
To root, flash the speedmod K13C kernel with odin and select root in recovery.

thanks mothatt, would i need to remove root if the update to gingerbread becomes availiable? also if i remomove the simlock would i still be able to do kies updates from the network provider (for warranty purposes)?

Root will not have to be removed for a firmware upgrade, the upgrade will remove root.
AFAIK removing simlock voids your warrant because it makes a permanent change to your efs. I'm not completely sure though as i have never unlocked.

hello friends,
sorry to be back again, i am having trouble with my phone, when it turns on it passes the orange splash screen but then i get a blank screen and it vibrates alot.
in order to get the phone to load i have to wipe/format to factory settings every time i switch on the phone, or it just goes black and vibrates.
also on a side note: if i use odin to flash new firmware, would this remove the orange brandig rubbish? im not bothered about losing data because i have had to erase everything to get it to load up.
if so which one would be best as i cannot find a bvjs4 firmware on samfirmware

[Q] NEEd HELP!!! Rogers Galaxy Tab P1000R - No Phone Functionality

Hi,
After a chain of stupid flash attempts to get ice cream sandwich working, I've completely bricked my tab. It seems P1000 ROM does not work with P1000R Rogers version tabs. Anyhow, I flashed back to stock Gingerbread but now I don't see PHONE ICON anywhere. It's completely gone. Phone recognizes SIM card inserted and shows all information related to SIM - my phone number & carrier name - in the (About Tablet > Status) panel.
In the 'About Tablet' window, it shows
Model number
GT-P1000R
Firmware version
2.3.3
Baseband version
P1000XXJPZ << looks like something's missing after or before here
Kernel version
2.6.35.7
[email protected] #2
Build number
GINGERBREAD.UXKG1
I've used Odin 3 and Clockwork Mod Recovery and tried Ice Cream Sandwich ROM linked here and MIUI ROM as well - Nothing was successful with my tab. I think I've flashed modem firmware (modem.bin) by clicking the 'Phone' button on the Odin 3 without knowing what it does.
Any help will be appreciated.
*** If you have a shop and if you can fix this problem, or if you know such shops, please let me know.

Found solution!!!
If anyone ends up here looking for a ROM with phone functionality, visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073854 This is an EU version of P1000 rom and Confirmed working with GT-P1000R.

you would have got the same if you use Overcome method
The GB-stock-safe is also a JQ1

I need this P1000N to just work, nothing fancy

A friend of mine has this old GT P1000N. He got it used. The thing could never hold any configuration, he would make changes and they would revert after a few hours or so. So he decided to flash it.
He is mostly an apple user, so Android is not something he knows about. He followed this guide:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI79j97R4qw
And basically bricked the tablet. Then, he gave it to me, to see if I can save it. So, here we are:
I found out that P1000N is not the same as P1000.
I downloaded the latest stock rom from sam mobile (2.3.6) and using Odin I actually made it boot again.
BUT, right after the flash, the first boot says something like:
"E:Can`t open directory `/preload/app/`. (No such file or directory) copy application failed"
Then, wen the OS starts, I get something about system UIDS being inconsistent, and then every damn app starts showing an alert about missing files.
I tried flashing again using the extracted pit file from the stock rom. Checking the repartition option.
Flashed it using the dbdata.
And in the end, the same errors appear again.
I don't want the latest custom rom, or the leaked fw. I just want it to work like it would normally do.
Anyone can help with a simple updated guide?
Thanks a lot!
Stock rom info:
Model: GT-P1000N
Country: Panama
Version: Android 2.3.6
Changelist: N/A
Build date: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 +0000
Product Code: TPA
PDA: P1000NVFJP6
CSC: P1000NUUBJPB
MODEM: P1000NUBJP3

when he first saw how the changes never hold, that is a sign of failing NAND chip.
The internal storage is stuffed.
The only option to salvage this is by following the threads on external sd only or damaged internal sd.
I have never done it myself and hope I will never have to.

SM-G920A is not updating

Hello Everyone, I try to update via normal update from About phone but it is showing "Your phone is updated" and also smart switch showing as well, please help me i can't able to find much updates related to my S6 SM-G920 A as i have my Phone information below:
Android Version: 5.0.2
Baseband Version: G920AUCU2AOF4
Build Number: LRX22G.G920AUCU2AOF4
Please guide me is it possible to update from 5.0.2 to any above ? If yes than how? is it possible that i install any other framewares version like : G920AUCU3BO12, G920AUCU3BOJ7 on it?

Yes, you can flash via odin. But, I'm not sure if you can go straight to something like BOJ7 or if there is something in between you install like BO12 (though I'm not sure if that update has ever been uploaded here)
