Here is a tutorial I found in a quick Google search:
http://www.mobilepoint.us/2012/12/samsung-galaxy-3i9305-unlock-precedure.html?m=1
But it is most likely outdated so I recommend going onto the official site of Z3X ( http://z3x-team.com/category/news/)

Hi,
1. Start the phone WITHOUT SIM card
2. Open the phone application and enter the following code: *#197328640#
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Then go in the following menus:
Main Menu [1] UMTS
[1] Debug Screen
[8] Phone Control
[6] Network Lock
Options [3] Personal SHA256 OFF
On this screen, do nothing. JUST WAIT ABOUT 30 SECONDS.
Then go back by pressing the Menu button (touch left of Home button) then select Back
you are in [6] Network Lock
then select [4] NW NV Lock Data INITIALLIZ
On this screen, do nothing. JUST WAIT ABOUT 1 MINUTE.
Then restart the phone.
4. Now your Galaxy i9305 LTE S3 must be unlocked. There is no confirmation message. The way to check is to insert a SIM card from another operator.

Before doing the instructions below, please double check your phone that it is actually LOCKED by inserting a sim card from a different carrier/provider...
you may or may not leave that sim card on the phone while unlocking
Note: your phone must be running at least Jelly Bean 4.1 otherwise some of the menu choices are not present

I can confirm it work !!!

This will not work on 4.1.2. You have to downgrade to 4.1.1, do the above, then use OTA to go back up to 4.1.2.
Doing this then following the above tut worked for me the other day.

Hi, I tried this on 4.1.2 and it did not work, can you please tell me how to downgrade to 4.1.1? I know how to use Odin and all, I just don't where to get the firmware file, (maybe from www.sammobile.com ?)

Hi,
Choose your original firmware 4.1.1 from sammobile.com and flash with Odin

Hi,
I want to unlock my Galaxy S3 i9305 LTE bought from TMobile UK, and unfortunately Kies has already upgraded my phone to 4.1.2, details below:
Model Number - GT- i9305
Android Version-4.1.2
Baseband version - i9305BVBLL2
Build Number - JZ054.I9305XXBLL5
Now when I go to Sammobile to donwload 4.1.1, you can see in the picture the codes don't match up where Sammobile has EVRBLL1 or EVRBLL2 under CSC and I have BVBLL2 or XXBLL5.
There is no option for TMobile in Sammobile.
Can anyone please help me or guide me what should I do ??
Thanks in advance.

Dude i was in the same boat as you. I wanted to roll back to 4.1.1. to unlock my phone so I downloaded the EE version cos there are no seperate roms available for Orange or T-mob they all operate under the same umbrella (EE). I used this guide to help me its pretty straight forward:
http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Samsung-Galaxy-S3/How-to-Flash-Rollback-Galaxy-S3/td-p/1273246 (I know its for original s3 but dont worry the guide works for LTE version aswell)
Instead of downloading firmware from sammobile I used this thread to download the original 4.1.1 stock rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942150
look for:
Product Code: GT-I9305TADEVR (4.1.1) (EE UK)
PDA: XXALI5
PHONE: BVALI5
CSC: EVRALI5
Released: 17/09/2012
Once you done that. Unlock your phone and finally use software updater via about device to upgrade back to 4.1.2. Baseband and built number will be the same as your present one. Job done! its easy and painless!

Thanks a ton for your reply, helps me a lot.
Just curious to know if you were able to unlock your phone after going back to 4.1.1 ?? As it would be pointless if we can't unlock the phone ever after downgrading to 4.1.1.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot, just one last thing. The rom that you downloaded from here(xda site) is that rooted rom or would I still need to root afterwards if I want root access ??
I am complete newbie to this Andriod and still getting hang of details, hope you don't mind.
Thanks once again.

[Q] If update official update from different country will baseband change?

Hello guys, i will explain the story in order, sorry for my bad Grammar.
first i have the official GTI9070 but i forgot the baseband (GB)
then i accept software update that appear in notification bar, my baseband become I9070DXLK2 (GB)
and i see there's CM11 out that can make kit kat running in I9070.
but it requires root to install CMW / TWRP..
so hard to find root zip for DXLK2, and then i found one full ROM rooted then flash it with odin.
my baseband still I9070 (GB) but rooted (binary counter++)
after that i flash TWRP with odin too.
then i try flashing CM11 with TWRP.
it success, but no mobile network.
i search at this forum and someone say "no mobile network happen because flashing from GB (2.3.x) directly to KK (4.4.x)"
he said first update from GB to official samsung JB.
the problem, there's no official samsung JB update for my country/region (DXLK2)
my question, if i flash the official samsung JB update from other region.. let say it italy.. will my baseband change?
if it changed, what's the problem and whats the negative impact? what should i do better?
thx in advance.
PS: my device is Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 (Indonesian)

You don't have any negative impact if you flash any stock JB firmware, only with your warranty if you still have one.
Please, follow this guide from point A (JELLYBEANIZATION): [GUIDE] From stock GB to Custom JB (Noob-friendly)
After you updgraded to JB, ask/read some tutorials linked here: [{INDEX of GUIDES/TUTORIALS}] Galaxy S Advance [GT-I9070].
Be sure when you proceed to do something OR ASK before, NOT AFTER you doing something wrong.

thank you for the response.

Or maybe removed. Try on samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com

In Canada, have XXLK2 (Africa?). Want JB, use UK version?
I bought my unlocked I9070 almost 2 years ago and am thinking about upgrading to Android 4.1.2 (JB).
On samsung-updates there appear to be lots of JB versions for different regions.
Can I just select the one for Britain (XXLQE)? Is there anything I need to check re: compatibility?

Yes you can flash any stock firmware for I9070. Be sure you don't flash firmware for I9070P.

Flashing worked...once I found a .zip file

I had a lot of trouble trying to get the samsung-updates.com download to work (used the free one, which either didn't start most of the time or died during download). Eventually, I took the filename (for Britain) and Googled it, and found a download site that let me download it (required 3 hours).
Armed with the .zip file and ODLIN, it worked like a charm. All my installed apps and data survived, which surprised me. I thought this would be a vanilla install.

[Q] Flash G900F Rom on G900A?

You should search before you post. It isn't possible at this time due to locked bootloader

Correct. But doesn't Stok G900F ROM come signed from Samsung? Does G900A bootloader accept only its ROM and no others with valid signature?

Search xda and you will find your answer also search google

have fun bricking your phone. please take pictures as you go.

Can I get iOS 7 on my G900A???? Samsung and AT&T locked it down like an iPhone so why not

The g900a has a locked bootloader and no exploit as of yet to install a custom recovery so you will brick if you try to do it.

I was actually just thinking about this.
What if with an ATT S5 you switched carriers to t-mobile, but you were experiencing compatibility issues with the ATT firmware?
I did a live chat on the samsung website and the computer/samsung rep told me if I took my phone to best buy to one of the samsung care locations that they could switch the firmware.
I wonder if this means they have the capability to remove the lock on hand.
-Not sure if I'm going to try it out seen as I'm not actually switching I don't want things to get weird but maybe someone who is going to return their att handset for a t-mobile one could try this before hand?

anyone tested? are the same settings ..

Omfg ... how hard is it to understand that no root no flashing ??? Plz do research before u ask dumb questions
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using XDA Free mobile app

I already tried this, it bricked my phone, I put it up on a page, it won't let me Flash a tmo rom or custom recovery, it went to the screen where it says "this firmware is not recognized by att..." etc I had to put it on download mode and push the original firmware by Odin. And I wasn't able to enter my recover after that until I got the att update not to long ago

Funny....but what if...oh wait, what if I try this? But, but....NO, quit trying before you PERMANENTLY brick your device lol

noob question, sorry to revive, chances to scold me.
if I have a rom with odin g900f if one chooses only
* AP
* CP
* CSC
these three can or can not be on at & t?
I have understood that if you play * BL will have problems, and the others?
I have not tried, I do not want a brick, lol
No way to install a stock rom g900f unmodified clear without knox, I've seen here they are using as a basis the g900f roms with safestrap but are highly modified?
I have tried to install the rom alvin g900f but I have problems with root and custom padlock at power on.

you can't flash anything thru Odin unless it is the official AT&T firmware the ONLY way you can have a G900F firmware on your G900A device is to root (using towelroot by geohot) install Safestrap recovery and then flash any of the custom Touchwiz ROMS from the forums.

What if you want to install the other way?
An G900A ROM to G900F?
Is this possible?

hey guys.
sorry for bothering.
i have an AT&T samsung galaxy s5 G900f running kitkat 4.4.2
i'm from morocco ( the third world )
so no best buy stores or a way to get an At&t Sim card.
i tried updating my phone via settings> phone info > Software update but it says You software is up to date.
i did some searches anf found out that i need and An official At&t Firware of G900f which i looked up but found nothing.
so , can i flash any other model's Firmware like the one of the international version G900f or G900A....etc?
thanks in advance and thank you so much.
waiting to hearing from you soon.

The AT&T version is G900A, not G900F. Either way, you can't flash unofficial firmware versions. You can only flash custom roms if you are rooted and it's limited to a few.

yes i know the At&T version is G900A.
i'm just confused.my phone is G900f.regardless , when checking for software update , here's what or says in the screenshot below
by flashing i meant updating the firmware via Odin or kies to lollipop or marshmallow.
maybe my phone isn't An At&T version, but it has an At&T firmware installed.
that's why i can't Get it updated via OTA updates.
so i wan't to update it manually.
i'm just wondering if i flash A firmware of G900f on my actual Firmware , will it cause my phone to stuck in a bootloop or such thing ?

Umm if what you're saying is you that you have not been able to update to kitkat via OTA or with Samsung Kies and you want to update with Odin, then uninstall Kies and then follow the instructions in this thread. The files in this thread are the latest official kitkat release...after you flash them with odin you will be on stock NC2 and any future OTA updates should work properly if you stay on stock.
If not, try rewording your question...

ok
Download Odin here
Download NC2 (kit kat) file here
Open Odin, click on "AP", select the _HOME.tar.md5 file that just downloaded
When your phone reboots and Odin says "PASS!" the upgrade to official kit kat was successful.
Better instructions with screenshots of how to upgrade to kit kat are in this thread
Don't forget to thank @carl1961 for the install guide and @BlackRam1500 for the official kitkat files

No that is not a problem. Upgrading to kit kat this way will safely overwrite your baseband current baseband to NC2.

I am not using the service of AT&T, I am with a company of another country

You will have to use ODIN (when the files are made available) to update from here on out.

I mean, after the update on via ODIN OTA, i do not want to be updates?

You will only be able to manually update with ODIN since you are not on AT&T. So you can choose to not update.
OTA means over the air. It comes from the provider.

Please verify the source of the image file
Can you verify where you got the file N900AUCUCNC2_N900AATTCNC2_N900AUCUCNC2_HOME.tar.md5

I've been searching the depths of the internet, and your post was the first post that actually got me moving in to 4.4.2. So thanks for taking the time to post. Any validation/verification you can provide as to your source would be awesome
Thanks!

Can you verify where you got the file N900AUCUCNC2_N900AATTCNC2_N900AUCUCNC2_HOME.tar.md5
This worked for upgrading my N900A Note III, but my concern is the source of the tar.md5 file.
The sammobile site only lists the follow for my phone which actually fails through odin (note failed when it was starting out on 4.3)

There have been 3 official firmware releases since MI9 - MJ5, NB4, and the latest NC2...sammobile is clearly not up to date
The NC2 files have been used and verified by several devs let alone used by tons of us regular folks with 0 problems...the original post with the NC2 files is here have a read through the thread I think it will put your mind at ease. I think @Walter.White created the HOME file from the stock files which is more reason not to be concerned

Update android

Hello,
I´m from Argentina. I have a S5 AT&T SM-900A baseband: G900AAUCU2ANG3.
I want update my KitKat 4.4.2 to stock Lollipoop 5.1 or 6.0.1 Marshmallow but OTA has not updated by country restriction.
I´m not Root user.
1-) Is dangeours update? Can I downgrade if it would not work?
2-) Which method is better ODIN or other?
3-) Which android´s version 5 or 6 better works in this phone?
4-) Any tutorial? I have seen http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...w-to-update-to-g900aoi5-5-1-unrooted-t3235774, it works in my phone?
5-) I don´t know that is PA1, NG3, Modem, Kernel version.
Can you help me?
Thanks you very much
Sorry for my poor english.

if you know someone in the states, send it to them and let them do it and send it back

You should just be able to download the firmware and flash through Odin. It will update everything for you. The only problem is it will factory reset your device. So backup everything. Once you update to 5.0 or above, you can not flash back to KitKat. Just unzip the file, open Odin, click ap, find the file, then flash.

Thanks for yours reply.
I don´t know anyone in us.
If I change android rom, Must I change kernel and modem?
To update ROM, the baseband is: G900AAUCU2ANG3, what rom is compatible? Or the baseband doesn´t matter?

Can I install this in my phone and my baseband?

Yes. It's only one file. It takes care of kernel and modem. You don't have to do anything else besides flash the one file.

OP,
You will not be able to update the smg900a as long as you are on a network other than at&t . I have the same model and it came with kit kat .
I used this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...w-to-update-to-g900aoca-5-0-keeproot-t3076803
Please be sure to back up your info . You can use your internal storage if you dont have a SD card to store the two files.
Good luck.

Thanks
I could do with ODIN and this files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/g900aucs4cpa2-odin-files-em-hot-t3372388
My phone works very good.
