Hello everybody,
I bought a Galaxy S3 mini (i8190N) branded Three UK a month ago.
I search a lot on internet a way to unlock this phone in any way but I didn't found anything that works.
The last opportunity is buy an unlock code base on IMEI... (but I don't like it )
Can someone give me some ideas before this last method?
Thank you a lot
Bye :fingers-crossed:
I'm interested in this too. Is there a way to unlock it?
well....i can tell you that there is nothing

You can try this but there's no guarantiee it will work.
Probably depends on if it's locked from factory or locked by software.
Just go to a phone unlocking store and pay 20 euro to get it unlocked. I got the official Samsung unlock code for my mini today..delighted I am. A Phone unlocking store will have access to Samsung servers to sort you out.

Which site? please
unlocking
I paid 8 pounds on ebay 3 hours later had my unlock code
There is plenty ok UK sites that will sell you the unlock codes for any country s3 mini. Just yahoo it and find out. £15 or £20 is all it costs. I paid €20 from an irish site which had the same database as the UK ones.

flashing firmwares won't get your device unlocked cause simlock is stored on other partition,as i know we can't unlock this device for free
Best unlock provider 18190N

Thanks for posting this.
I had a hard time getting this Vodafone.ie phone unlocked until I tried your suggestion. Movical provided me with a code in less than ten minutes for 12e.
The actual address is movical.net
:good: Had mine unlocked to using this thread. Thanks guys! :highfive:
Hi guys!
I bought a new S3 Mini two days ago from an online company as a Pay as you go phone it came with a Vodaphone top up sim and i have no use for the sim as ive got a contract/pay monthly sim already i just needed a new phone, Anyways ive received it and its locked to Vodaphone WTH?? its a PAYG phone why have they locked it? Anyways as its the new type S3 mini "GT-i8200N" (Faster CPU) ive been looking for a way to sim unlock it without using these dodgy online companies as my brother paid for some company online to unlock his phone and they started buying items all over the world with his Card details so for this reason i wont use any sites online! so i wondered if there is a way around this and does anyone know how please?
Many thanks
Hello all,
I bought a superb LG Urbane LTE in Korean LG shop when they told me it would work in france network. In fact it looks it is looked to Korean phone network UTE.
Can anybody help me to unlock it ? I got some information form unlocking site telling me to enter 2945 #*120# but it seems it does not work ( I got next code to enter in case it would work as a firs command)
thank you for your help
cheers
arnaud
NO chance
I don't have a LG Urbane LTE but I don't think that this will work at all (this is the reason I haven't bought one from Korea). Because it is a built-in SIM, so how would you even change to a French network when you have a built-in korean SIM. We only can wait and hope that they release a model with a changeable SIM as well... sorry mate!

Hi everyone, I'm new in this forum amd i don't know of this is the right subforum so please be patient with me, thanks!
I have a problem with my samsung g. S6 and its that after been traveling abroad for 3 months, now that I'm back in the UK, my phone wont connect to the mobile network.
I searched in the internet for all the possible solutions but none seems to work.
I bought my phone second hand on march, it was network locked and i unlocked it with the unlock pin from a trusted site on internet,it is not blacklisted and I rooted and installed tyranus rom in it. since then i have been using it for several months without a problem, on september i went travel to spain and the us and the phone worked fine in the uk, spain and the us.
But when I arrived to the UK a couple of days ago is when the problem stared.
I tryed all the possible solutions I can find in the net but nothing did works.
Any Ideas? Could it be a rom problem? Shall I try a difernt rom?
Thank you for your time and help!
Hi All
Apologies as this have probably come up loads but i can't get the "reassurance" i need to do it.
Basically i am the proud owner of the p10 via vodfone uk ... i am looking at maybe unlocking the phone (I know this can be done) but the outcome i want is for it to essentially be stock or in other words as if i purchased an unlocked P10 on amazon for example.
The reason for this is i would like quicker access to updates in Europe rather than wait for the carrier to arrange them. The software from vodafone UK doesn't seem to be as smooth as when i see reviews based on unlocked phones ? some micro stuttering in the app draw and chrome seems to run badly. I know some phones shipped with slower onboard storage but mine was a shade under 800 mbs when i checked so all OK on that front.
So once i have unlocked the phone how do i then make the phone as if its a standard unlocked model ... suspect it would involve flashing a new ROM ? I am sticking with Vodafone for now so is an unlock code even needed? could i flash a stock rom other the vodafone software ?
Many thanks in advance
