Hello, I hope some one can assist me.
I am traveling and have put a new SIM in my AT&T sgs3 (cm10.1 nightly). Apparently, it is not unlocked. I was able to make a SIP call to AT&T international support, and the very kind person gave me an unlock code.
I was only able to try it after hanging up, and it does not seem to work. It denies the code; I cannot remember the exact language.
I spoke with them , and the person said I have the correct code, and that is the only valid code. They are unsure why it wouldn't work, but they warned me that if it denies the code five times, that my phone will be forever disabled, or something ominous like that.
Any idea why this is failing and perhaps how to proceed? I realize you can unlock an sgs3 by yourself per a few threads here, but I am not in a position to flash an old ROM with the correct dialer while abroad.
Only requirement is to be on a tw based Rom, and use the stock dialer
Only requirement for what? The unlock code to work?
Not to be a baby, but can someone link me to a Rom that would work that I can flash with TWRP? The wifi in this hotel is **** and limited to 200mb/day.

Yes you have to be on a Touchwiz ROM for the code to work
Most TW ROMs are about 800mb+ just a little heads up.
And TouchWiz ROM are located in the S3 Development section.

Ah, that is what TW means! I guess a TW kernel isn't enough?

Ack. I downloaded and flashed " [ROM] 01/14/13 I747MUMBLL1 JB 4.1.1 Completely Stock Odexed Rooted BusyBox" and it still won't take the code!
Is this not an original TW ROM?? If not, can someone please link me to one?
Since your on a stock Rom, try this

+1 this method does work on the LL1 rom
tested and confirmed by me about 3-4 months ago, My rom Dandroid was using this base during its 2.x days
good luck bud
I think you would need to be on stock (no rooting either). I tried on my wife's rooted stock, and the unlock code didn't work. Only way out was to upgrade to Intergalatic, and do it the non code way.

Yay; that did the trick! I had tried that earlier with a different "stock" ROM and it hadn't worked.

Sup XDA,
I know there are involved ways of getting GT-N7100 roms on the T-mobile SGNII but are you able to flash straight across? I googled a bit and searched xda a bit and found some radio discussion but that's about it as I am at work at the moment. I did find a few details about flashing all but the radio and kernel for Sprint roms but that was it.
Any info? Found this site with tons of GT-N7100 roms on it: http://www.grantbarker.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2.html#galaxy-note-2-roms
Thanks

Pretty much *all* of the roms in this forum are for the at&t variant, and almost all of them are 4.1.2 and 4.2.2. If yours is a SGH-i747, these roms will work on your phone, you just need to go into Settings->More/Mobile Networks->Access Point Names and write down your *working* APN settings to replace the APN settings that come with these roms.

If you can't find it it's because you didn't look properly or didn't go through the trouble of reading any of the search results...
If you were not able of finding a compatible ROM for your device even though you posted on the forum where many of them are, I would say you're not ready to flash custom ROMs on your device. You will most probably run into issues at some point and the ability of searching and finding solutions is a must when doing this type of thing... Don't expect people to help you much when the answer to your problems is right under your nose...

There are several 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 "stock" Touchwiz ROMs ported from T-Mobile, Verizon or our bordering countries (Canada/Mexico) that are for At&t in the development section. There is even a stock At&t 4.1.1 ROM there. There are even more "stock Android" 4.2.2 ROMs in the developer and original developer section.... Just browse and you'll find them.
If you don't know what you're doing, you may not want to flash one though?? If you do, MAKE SURE it's for your phone, I've hard bricked an S3 already flashing an incompatible ROM.
There is at least one post with a link to download the stock JB 4.1.2 update file, TC is either to dumb to find it, or is lazy and wants someone to post a link for them.
How will firmware updates be handled? I know if I was on att I should freeze the update files so I don't get their latest update, but do I have to do anything on tmo? I am guessing I won't get any OTA updates as I have a custom rom and kernal, and have an att phone on tmo, yes?

Thanks, I thought so. My phone is so freaking confused they couldn't update it if they tried. But boy am I loving it!
I know there was a guide in the AT&T forum to ensure you don't get the update.
Might want to search there just to be on the safe side.

Yes, that was the one. I have to believe that as long as I am no longer on ATT, they can't get at me, even if they tried. Boy do I hate ATT and so happy to leave them.
is there a stock att 4.3 rom that is already rooted? i see something similar over at the android dev section but it was based on the leaked version and not the official one. so if you have or know where to get it, please post link. thank you

Have you looked at this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540998
It has a couple different Roms with the newest 4.3 ota firmware WITHOUT flashing the bootloaders. I personally had used LoserSkaters version and enewmans version with no real issues at all (other than I cannot flash my vr theme, but that might be something on my end). As far as being stable and everything working I have no problems.

First of, don't hijack threads, if you have a question start a new one.
And second, this is the reason I don't use cynanogen mod. There's a lot of random bugs.
And third, you might want to update to the latest version of cynanogen mod. Cm7 is pretty old.

That depends on your setup....you can simply flash any 4.4.2 Based ROM in Development PREVIEW by team d3rp or Team 420's OpTimuS, but you will need to make sure that you have the KK based modem....found in Autoprime's thread. The instructions for everything are the threads....That's all I got.

Again, you have failed to clearly state what you mean by, "unlocked", which also is the main reason why you're still over here asking questions in the wrong section of the forum...
The link provided to you is the latest Official Sprint release Stock and Rooted...direct questions regarding that ROM to that specific thread.

If I avoid all of the reply you gave me was because all does threats you post, was for CUSTOM roms where you have to root and instal no official things on your phone.....What I need is CLEAN OFFICIAL STOCK FIRMWARES. Thats what I am asking for.
No offense but he was trying to help you stating that you're in the wrong section of the forums to ask this. He directed you to where you could go to ask these things and even offered an alternative. Quite frankly he went above and beyond to help you considering this section is only for custom ROM development. You should direct yourself over to the Q&A section of the forum for these things where you'll get whatever help it is you're seeking which sounds like what you need is to just use the latest .tot and call it a day. I'm going to report this thread to have it moved. It really doesn't belong in this section dude.
