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).

Hello, I have Samsung S3 Mini - model 730A. I managed to get my phone rooted, but unable to install TWRP via ODIN3; it says "fail" with red color on it. Why?
Thanks.
I think you accidentally might have chosen the version for the GT-I8190.

Verizon and ATT Samsung S3 mini smartphones are version 730A. The differences:
1) Locked bootloader. Hardwired - I think.
2) 1.2 Ghz as opposed to 1 Gz as found in other S3 mini model.
That's pretty much it. I think.

Ok, for me:
1) Locked bootloader. Hardwired - I think.
=> Have you search an thread on XDA for an alternative root method for this model ?
The basic hardware unlocked method don't work (for me), so if i am you, i will search how to unlock 730A bootloader locked..
Do you understand ?

Many people are having the same issue.
There's no way to unlock AT&T Galaxy S3 Mini bootloader, no? GT703A version that is.
Is their a too unlock this phone bootloader?
