Sim Unlock Question - Bell Vibrant - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry for the dumb question but once the handset is unlocked with an unlock code, is it permanent? Will flashing new firmware relock it?
Thanks.

Yes, phone unlock is permanent (unless you relock it).
Note: phone unlock != sim unlock

[SOLVED]Custom ROM or Stock ROM for unlocking Bootloader?

Hello everyone!
I have GinderDx v028b and i am on stock kernel.
i want to unlock my bootloader and i searched the forum but couldnt find any reference for
unlocking bootloader using the GinderDx ROM.
So should i install the stock rom first or can i do it using ginderdx only?
And the manufacturing code behind the cell case is 11W26.
Its safer to go back to 2.1 And then proceed with the bootloader unlock process

yes, it is safer to go to eclair, but i unlocked mine BL on gingerdx. i personally think that it doesn't matter because the script unlocks the BL when the phone is booting and the OS isn't running yet (but i can be wrong )
Thanks a lot guys for helping!! :good:

Unlocking at&t bootloader

Has anyone tried a unlock code from a different carrier to see if it allows you to unlock? Just curious.

Not likely as every phone has a different fastboot unlocking code
