At the very first post in the galaxy tab Q&A there is a post by K0sh. Search for the procedure you need on that post.....
There is an app for Sim unlock in market.

You don't need to unlock to install gingerbread roms.
You unlock if you need to use a carrier's sim card different from the carrier you bought the tab from.
You don't need to root to install gingerbread roms.
HI, i have a Samsung Galaxy s3 mini locked to T-Mobile, and i'm asking if i install a new firmware, is going to unlock the phone?
Thanks.
Nope, you need an unlock code, use google (don´t know if this is legal!)... Only flashing another firmware won´t help you.
Another, legal, way is to call your provider to get the unlock code (maybe not cheap).

you should ask this in the i9300 Q&A thread, they could help you out better, but as far as i know you will remain unlocked
once lock is removed you can flash what ever you like and it will still stay unlocked...even custom, or official samsung
Hello Everyone,
Has anyone had any luck unlocking the bootloader for the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini SM-G730A. I want to put another system on it but can't right now. I also want to use another carrier and can't do that either. Any help will be appreciated...

I did, but theres no other ROM made to put on it. d
Dont remember what i used but i do remember odin and framaroot but cant remember what else i used. I had it unlocked but found NO custom recovery for this fone and actually found 2 custom roms but neither one worked. Had phone rooted and unlocked then flased another program and lost root and locked the bootloader again. Crap, 3 days research down the drain. Challenging yes
but im just gonna keep using my Zenfone 2 with the CyanogenMod 13 Marshmello 6.0 as my main source of moding! stop wasting your time cuz it seems that noOne is working on custom recovery let alone custom ROMS for that old phone the Samsung Galaxy S3 mini SM-G730A. Too bad cuz its a solid phone that i have dragged around the world with me 2 xs. Samsung and AT&T both Suck.
Acually safestrap recovery was succesfully ported to the g730a.

Your bootloader is locked by Samsung. You can only flash signed firmwares by Samsung via Odin. You must first unlock your bootloader, then you can start flashing custom ROMs or custom recoveries for your phone. Unfortunately, there are no way to unlock it and there are no custom ROMs or recoveries for SM-G730V yet. This CM11 version on our forum is for the international and Latin American variant (GT-i8190/N/L) only.
And you should know that Odin saved your phone near a soft bricked phone

I think none currently working on it. Very less people using a SM-G730V variant of s3 mini. So I think, no, it will not ever be done.
Thumbs up for being helpful! Though the news sucks
Do I need to root s3 mini in order to flash cm11 with odin?
Also why doesn't odin see my phone?
Hello guys. I managed to flash the cm11 and twrp. The only problem is that i don't like the sms app. Is there a way to get the one that touchwiz had?
i don't think it is as easy as it sounds. you can deactivate stock sms app but i don't think you can easili install a new one...
I installed gosms for now but I want the Samsung SMS app
