Unlocking Rooted phone - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
I have just asked o2 to unlock my samsung galaxy note 2 which is rooted. Is it gonna be ok to unlock it or is there gonna be any problems?

First wrong section.. Ask question in Q&A section.. I don't know why people never think.. "I want to ask a question.. Where should l post my question?.. In general(information section) or QUESTION AND ANSWERS"
Second.. By unlocking what you mean? The carrier? I don't know the legality of doing that in your country but there's several (free) tools in the play store to get carrier free your device..

I have seen the B option. It is only 2.49 which is nothing to be honest but I think you didnt get my question. I was thinking the unlock could cause a problem to my phone because it is rooted. I think it will be fine. Thanks anyway

[Q] How To Remove Sim Lock on Samsung Galaxy Y S5360 ?

Greetings to comunity
Is there any way to remove Sim lock on my smartphone Samsung Galaxy Y S5360?
I found a lot of websites promising to make sim unlock but you have to pay.
It is working over IMEI code...
Can i unlock my phone by flashing with odin or similar tools but keep the stock rom?
Thanx in advance.

use search bar, BTW we have an app that can do that by doky in dev section...
Newbies as respect to old members should learn to read FAQ before randomly asking questions

[Question] Multiple questions about bootloader and network locked

First of all hello everybody
Since this is my first post and im semi noob il try to be as explicit as I can.
I personaly own an lt15i so I have some xp.
A friend of mine gave me his arc in order to root/instal custom rom etc.
-network locked on Orange Romania.
- seems to be not unlockable (bootloader I mean) since I have no Rooting Status section in the service menu.
-2.3.3 Version update dosnt work (via phone or pc companion,it says it has the latest version )
- baseband version 7X30A-AAABQMAZM-1290_21-29
Kernel 2.6.32.9-pref [email protected]#1
Last Section (About compiling smth,its not in english and i forgot its name)
3.0.1.A.0.150
I need to get it to ICS.
What can be done?
The phone is not rooted,its in perfect state and it only has some apps instaled from the market (player etc).Except that its as new as you buy it.
Would rooting resolve the issue?
Would network unlocking?
Any ideas,sugestions or anything else would greatly be apreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Not a very good first post it has to be said. Read the stickys, read them again and once more after that. Then ask any questions still remaining on the relevant threads.

I do not understand this attitude around here,no offence but an answer would of take you less time to write.
I read all the stiky's (except for the themes forum and accesories ) and did not find any helpfull information. Been googling and forum searching the issue for about 4 hours. If you are willing to manualy read 100+ reply's with 1% change of finding helpfull information please be my guest (I used topic search duh)
I might be retarded but : No unlocked bootloader no kernel instal,no kernel instal no ics since its gb kernel. No official update for my phone and I suspect it might be network related.. A simple yes or no answer is hard to get in this days... Anyway thank you for your reply and helpfull information
People get such replies off me when they've clearly showed no initiative. You say you've searched, read the stickys etc but everyone says that despite the fact the fact most of the answers can be found in the stickys.
I've got nothing against People asking questions but when new threads are started on a daily basis asking about things that have been answered or discussed many many times over it gets annoying after a while, and if like you say you've found nothing relating to rooting or unlocking the boot loader that's helpful in 4 hours, then god only knows what you've been searching for.
Also, click on the first and last link in my signature.

Ok I might be an idiot.
So basicly the answer is no, maybe this was a retarded topic since SE says
In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

I thought that could be done if somthing on the phone changed,I guess the answer is no but I dont see any logic in this,wouldnt expect anyone to explain anyway.
Let me rephrase my question then,as a noob user as I am.
Why cant I OFFICIALY UPDATE the phone since ICS is actually released for this phone? If I am again that retarded that I did not find an answer on this forum or via google,I swear to god Il get a nokia 1100 and leave this forum for ever.
Just pick a ftf from the sticky in general and flash it with the flashtool, much easier than waiting, and you'd have to ask Sony why they've not yet released it.

Thank you dear sir! As far as I read I tought I needed to change the kernel in order to get ICS which is impossible.
If you had said that in the begining I would not wasted so much time and now I know more. Instead of mini raging with all that blabla like in the video. I did not honestly know anything about those ftf files,Im guessing they also update the kernel. Honestly I would of never had thought of searching for something like this.

I'll not mention that you've said you were "googling and forum searching the issue for about 4 hours". Yes they flash the kernel too, and to unlock the boot loader you can use the S1 Tool, the link to it is in my guide (see sig), which I assume you will surely have read, at least skimmed through it.

Good day dear sir.

So you have managed to unlock the boot loader and flash the ROM and Kernel? Thanks for compliment, it used to be a sticky but I asked for it to be removed as I wasn't updating it much, but try and keep it up to date these days.

To do this, go to galaxynote2root website and look at the tutorials. It takes you step by step and is basically a can't miss process. You can even reverse it later on if you don't like the results, but I found it great to fine tune your device to exactly what you want out of it.

1. This is the Galaxy Note 2 forum. Putting "Galaxy Note 2" in your thread title is ridiculous.
2. You also specifically create a "Help" topic but then for some odd reason decide to put it in "General" instead of the dedicated "Help" section???
3. No spoon feeding is allowed on XDA, if you want to root your device start reading instead of creating threads that already exist. Stop been lazy and use search, read and learn.

I will have a try.
Try looking in phils recovery thread. I'm pretty sure there is an all in one package to root and install recovery that is flashed with odin. Just make sure you always flash the correct version, don't flash anything for the n7100 just the n7105 and you'll be fine
Sent from my GT-N7105 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You also have the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 toolkit... That's what I used the first time I unlocked/rooted/changed recovery of my phone... It's quite complete and basically does all the hard work for you... After rooted you have lots of ways of doing the same thing...

Looks like they found the bootloader unlock solution.

Only for att now but im sure development will blow up now

You're not the dev, onlly devs can post THEIR original work in the original development section. Anyway, I'm glad there is a solution for the other variants to now flash recovery.
Please do not post non development related threads in the development section.
Announcements belong in the general section

excuse me, as I read here, they said that D851 are always the unlocked bootloader devices ??
D851 was always unlocked , but Sprint's, Verizon's, AT&T's variants are locked down. If I'm not mistaken, international variant has locked bootloader as well.

I would've posted links but it's not so simple on app, also if you can't be bothered to search and read on complex topics, which might result in you destroying your expensive phone, maybe you shouldn't be undertaking them.
What's wrong with today's society is people expect everything handed to them on a plate, with little or Jo effort on their part.

+1. I agree. People can't be expected to be spoon fed all the time. Just search it! It's that simple.
What else could we expect from a user (OP) whose nickname seems mispelled?
