AFAIK the simlock is stored in the TrustZone secured emmc area. The likelyhood of a working simlock in the near future is very slim.

Hi, I had to unlock a Galax ACE and I did it succesfully.
The problem is that I can't find the same file with the unlock code in the Samsung Galaxy S Plus.
Some people post that the unlocking methods for Samsung Galaxy S or S2 doesn't work with S Plus. Now I have confirmed that Galaxy Ace method doesn't work.

I'll keep waiting ...
In custom firmwares like CM7 or equivalent, the network is unlocked. The rom i mentioned above has an unlocked network. It is the rom and not the hardware which locks the network that's why you can unlock it.

Hi guys, i have some questions and hope you could help me.
I bought a galaxy mini a while ago, and of course i was wondering if i could change the rom.Mine is in the picture , hope it helps. It updated a few days ago with samsung keys to 2.3.4. The problem is that it's locked in orange. It has a lot of crap that i dont want or use. The thing is, can i flash it if it's locked?And can you give me a few pointers on how to do that?
Thanks

You can sim unlock your device and then flash the rom --You can pay few buck and get it unlocked online or maybe there are some around your locality--... This way the rom will surely work...
Note: I haven't trying doing either and what you do is at your own risk!!
So this wont work until i sim-unlock it?

Is it possible to unlock a Note 3 that has blocked IMEI from ATT?

Hi guys,
Got my hands on a note 3 that is now apparently has a bad IMEI... . I was wondering if it is possible to unlock a note 3 from ATT that has a blocked IMEI? I looked through several unlock services online and all of them will not do blocked IMEIs...
If I can unlock it, I can use it outside of the USA.
Your help is much appreciated! Thank you!
[Updates few days later after original post]
So buying a code end up not working... it said "failed"
I decided to root the phone using the "Root De La Vega" method.
And then use Region lock Away and was able to unlock the phone! Now I am using it with Bell Mobility in Canada.
So if anyone in the future end up with a AT&T N900A Note 3 that has a bad IMEI, they can try the method I used.
Hope this helps, thank you!
You can sim unlock it and use it on another carrier

Hi,
yeah thats what I wanted to do! Just a sim unlock. But several companies say they are unable to provide sim unlock services for phone that has a block IMEI.. However, i think I have found one that is willing to do it!
I will report back if it works... Thank you for replying!

Hi,
But I need to root the note 3 first right to use the region unlock app? I thought the Chain Fire CF auto root thing doesn't support N900A? I went on the website http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ and couldn't find one for N900A... read it some where about boot leggers...no idea what that means lol.

Will I be able to root it using Chainfire CF auto root? Or i will need to use an alternative method? If so, do you have a recommendation? I am new to this rooting thing...i don't even know what it actually does.

if you are familiar with iOS, rooting is the same thing as jailbreaking basically.
a lot of people have been using Kingo to root theirs. you can ask around for help, but doing do will void your warranty so you might just want to pay for the unlock.

See if this works,
New method with /dev/bml5
If this doesn't work either, you are better off paying for the unlock code

You should stop listening to people who have no idea what they are talking about. Your problem is not sim lock, but NETWORK lock, unless you are using that French carrier's simcard, which would be really stupid. So, I assume you are using a simcard form a different carrier.
If you have used all network unlock attempts, your phone may be permanently locked to that network, which may not even be unlocked by the carrier. Take it to that carrier and ask for help...
