Just unlock the Sim card.
Either find the unlock threads on here (there are a few) or phone Rogers and ask for the unlock code.

Nope. The i747-M does not have the AWS frequency support required for Mobilicity.

I asked this question over on androidforums.com, but I did not receive a definitive answer. If I purchased a used At&T GS3, would I be able to use it with full LTE functionality on the Bell Canada network if I unlocked it?
Thanks.
I would imagine us they're the exact same phone both i747

Thanks. Can anyone confirm this?
Well you can use any unlocked phone on Bell. So basically it should work

No you can't. The LTE frequencies are different.

I can confirm that they are exactly the same hardware. You could flash the bell firmware from Samfirmware on the AT&T version, and it would be identical to what you get from a bell store here in canada. The LTE Frequency for AT&T is different, as another poster noted, but the Radio firmware for Bell would make it work.

No they aren't.. same thing.. you can flash a AT&T modem on a Bell phone, hence, the same.
I am running the latest att firmware on my bell phone so no issues

Is the device "unlocked" if it "rooted"
Answer = They are different things not related.
Thanks a lot.
So I have to unlock the phone if I want to use another carrier's SIM.
Can I use a windmobile SIM after I unlock a Bell Samsung Galaxy S3 - SGH-i747M?

It is said the Bell Device can use a Rogers SIM after unlock but not a Wind SIM.
I have unlocked my phone by downgrade to 4.1.1 stock rom.
When I insert the Wind SIM, detected the network but only the roaming network, and I can not register to that network.
When I change to a Rogers SIM, everything works fine.
Does anyone know if there is a way to configure the Bell i747M for a Wind SIM?
Thanks a lot.
I am trying to unlock my sim so I can use simple mobile. Right now I have the latest AOKP on my phone. I also don't have any sim card in it yet. I tried to unlock using *#197328640# but it won't do anything. Do I have to Odin back to stock for it to work? Or is there another way to unlock the sim?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I just did some reading and I see that it has to be stock tw ROM in order for that to work.

If its a sgh-T999 it doesn't have to be unlocked to be used on simple mobile

unlocking a Galaxy s3 without a sim card
Hi, I just got a tmobile Galaxy s3 since my friend upgraded to an iPhone, however I have service with Virgin Mobile. I've read about unlocking phones to work with different carriers and I'm hoping there's a way to unlock this tmobile phone so i can use it with Virgin Mobile. Virgin Mobile as far as i know doesn't use sim cards. Will i be able to make the switch?

I recently acquired a t-mobile galaxy S3 (t999l)running stock 4.1.2, however my current provider is metropcs and in order to use it i have to unlock it. I currently dont have the money to pay for that so i want to downgrade it to 4.1.1 to do it for free. I was wondering how i could go about downgrading step by step. I would also like to have it rooted.
There is no 4.1.1 for t-999l.. And you don't need to unlock T-Mobile phones to use them with metroPCS.. I know because I've worked for metroPCS.. In other words, you're good to go!!

4.1.2 is all we have

I tried putting my already activated metropcs sim card in and it asked for sim unlock code. Is there anything I can do to resolve that.

What phone did you have before? Was it cdma or gsm? It shouldn't ask for one.. also is your area using cdma or gsm network?
