First, questions go in the Q&A section. Do you mean rooted? Yes. Carrier unlocked? Somewhat. You can flash to other CDMA carriers, mostly the prepaid services like Page Plus, Boost, Virgin Mobile, etc.

Yes Carrier unlocked. I am sure if I root I will be able to but I was hopping not to root on this. Thanks again!

Just make the phone better. Rooting is the reason to get an Android.

I rarely spend time in that section of this forum. So I was not aware.
Yup, you will
But, here's a tip, from me. Flash everything manually, and DON'T flash userdata.img!!!!
Or recovery.img!
Should you flash those, aswell, you would perform a factory reset/wipe data.
So, leave those two, as they are...

Oh I see. Thanks for the tip.
I plan to flash using the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit and later unlock and root it again.
I just bought an AT&T Galaxy s 3 and I need to get it set up on my T-mobile network. First it wont recognize my sim because the sim is carrier locked. Next Im assuming I need the T-mobile compatible radios.
Can anybody point me in the right direction to get this baby running on my network?
Thanks in advance!
You need it unlocked.

I really gotta ask. Why would you buy an ATT model for use with T-Mobile?
Well, to point you in the right direction...

In testing (wanted t-mobile voip calling) I tried flashing the tmo-4.2.2 image on my phone (minus baseband) and it worked fine - well... except for that little matter of it burning battery because the screen was one all the time...
I bet for June

Again, this is a Virgin Mobile edition. Kinda confused about the whole Knox thing specifically.

If you plan on using KitKat, yes, that will make things a whole lot easier. Knox doesn't effect anything unless you are planning on sending it back to Samsung for a warranty claim... Sprint and it's subsidiaries don't care. There is a thread called Knox and You in the General section if you would like to read up on it.
