Hi guys i m have a problem with unlock with samsung galaxy next
not lit by 2 months, and today I wanted to continue using it but I forgot the combination to unlock and after exhausting all test hours obligates me to Google username and password but I do not remember them! there a way to unlock it without the hard reset?
I bought a T989D privately and was told it was unlocked. Running stock ICS. When using my MTS sim it asks me for network lock control key. Since I was not the one who unlocked it, I suspected it was not really unlocked. Did a little research and found if I dialed *#7465625# , I could find status of lock. All were "off" . Now since I did not unlock it and have no way to contact person who unlocked it, I have no codes to enter. Tried rooting and using [root] Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock, it could not find unlock or unfreeze code.
What is my next step??

Did some more testing. Here are some more facts. As I said my active working MTS sim asks for network lock control key. I have 2 Rogers inactive never used sims, they both ask for network lock control key.
Have a Telus never used sim, it DOES NOT ask for network lock control key.
Makes me think phone is locked. So why all the "off" states of *#7465625# test?

Am I missing something here? Status of *#7465625# indicates phone IS unlocked. Any help would be appreciated. Would be glad to pay for unlock code if I knew that would work.

Seems like you were ripped off. I've heard of "partial unlocks" where whoever unlocked it didn't know what exactly they were doing. Like they tried z3box or jtag to unlock it. But yes if you bought an unlock key it would fully unlock it as unlock keys are usually direct from Samsung.

Hello,
I bought a Samsung Captivate Glide i927 (Rogers), and it was locked. In my country, I went to a local phone shop and they unlocked the phone. But after 1 month of normal using, the phone was locked again. So I went again and unlock the phone for the second time. Unfortunatly, after 1 month of using, the phone was locked again. Why? I don't know.
It was after I was restarting the phone. The phone asked me to enter the PIN code as usual. I entered the PIN code that I usually enter which is 0000. The phone writes "code accepted" then after 1 second the phone shows a black screen in which I read that the PIN code is incorrect and I have to contact the provider. I can use the phone applications, but I can't call or send a text message. I always receive "Not registered on the network". When I write *#746562#, the phone give me a list of information in which I read "Network Lock [ON]".
How to unlock my phone Again? Where I have to get the unlocking code? Is it free? is it for 1 month or for ever? What is the problem in my phone? Is there a trusted website where I can buy the unlocking code forever?
I unlocked an SGH-I927R in a way that's kept the IMEI intact and that's not out of reach for anyone with a bit of technical ability. It does require ADB, a hex editor and either root or CWM.

This came way too late ... I used Fast-GSM ... it takes longer than usual, I don't get an actual unlock code but did it with my ACE as well.
Its a bit more expensive, but hook his app up via USB w/ debugging, run the unlock tool whamo. Unlimited ROM installed, rebooting etc. Cyangenmod and it stayed unlocked.
Now, also on my i927r (Rogers) same deal stays unlocked.
I do wish I had seen this thread earlier, great that there's free ways to unlock it and pull out the code. Big thanks for doing that write up!

the SIM it's new, got it 2 weeks ago with another new phone i bought from metropcs, but do you know what that error means or something ? because i've seen different ones, like MM#6 & MM#4
Is the phone blacklisted?
Not a clue on the error. Never seen anyone else report one like that before.
the phone it's not blacklisted, everything it's clean

I'm in Canada and I use this website to check for black lists: http://www.protectyourdata.ca/check-the-status-of-your-device-in-canada/
If you want, could input your imei as another check.
I see Metro PCS uses AWS bands which the i747 and i747m does not natively support (http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/1498...-network-frequencies-and-phone-compatibility/).
Yeah.wanna to unlock your phone try galaxsim unlock apk from play store.
Features:
Easily sim unlock your Samsung Galaxy family smartphone/tablet (S, S2, S3, some S4, Tab, Tab2, Note, Note2...) so you can use any other network operator.
No need for unlock code on most devices: as simple as one button click, and you can change your carrier sim card !
GalaxSim Unlock is*. Even with recent ICS or JB roms update, your GS2, GS3, GS4 or Note2 won’t relock after reboot.
Hit thanks?

Hi there everybody, I am a first time poster and I have looked around the site looking for an answer but I'm not even sure what I am looking for so here's my question, yesterday I bought my 9 year old son a Galaxy A5 6 2017, playing about in the setting I seen "your phone has been compromised press restart to fix the problem" or something very close to that, so I rebooted and now the phone wont load up and in the top left of the screen I see this message, "custom binary blocked by ftp lock" please can some person help me fix this problem, I'm not a tech type but don't mind trying anything, I understand that this is a custom software and honestly I do not mind what software goes on to it as long as the end result is a working phone for my son, up until I rebooted it I thought it was a great phone running android 7, I am in Dublin, Ireland, the phone is unlocked to all networks, just in case that matters, Thanks in advance for any help
