Hey guys,
I got my S4 unlocked from Tmobile. But I want to flash the latest Kitkat firmware via Odin. Will my phone relock back to Tmobile?
Thanks,
Nope

just bought a gs3 for my little cousin in venezuela. phone needs to be shipped off tonight. phone comes with tmobile 4.3. i know i cant revert back to 4.1.1 via odin. is it possible to get a rooted image of 4.3. which i found already. flash that via odin. then once rooted. install twrp. and flash a 4.1.1 rom with recovery along with with correct modem. and then do the unlock that way? is there anyway , to unlock, is there any rom with a software unlocked already in it.
Not possible, sorry bud.. If you bought it straight off T-Mobile you can request an unlock and see if they will unlock it for you or buy an unlock code

Is it possible to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.1.1 to unlock the device?
You just flash the 4.1.1 then probably have to flash your bootloader if it doesn't boot and then flash the jl2 radio
Hi, I have a custom rom, the galaxy project 4.4.2. What I need to do to unlock the phone?
Can I downgrade to a custom 4.1.2 via recovery, and apply the unlock tutorial?
Correct me if I'm wrong, It's the bootloader that has to be downgraded in order to unlock using the hidden menu. But with devices that took OTA updates 4.3 or later, downgrading bootloader will brick the phone. I'm also looking for an unlock option but no luck so far because my Note 2 has OTA 4.4.2. Does anyone have better information about this?

is valide for my version ? model SGH-I747M
If you have never flashed the 4.3 bootloader onto your phone, you can flash a stock 4.1.1 rom from sammobile.com, use the free method to sim unlock the phone, and run OTA updates to take your phone to KK.
Do not flash the ROM for the i747, only the i747m.
My GF's M919V is rooted and is currently running Resurrection Remix, which has been flawless. I'd like to SIM unlock this phone but the usual service menu codes mentioned here do nothing. Is it safe to downgrade to 4.4.2 to do the SIM unlock?
The service menu unlock method only works with the stock Samsung dialler in 4.1.1. If the phone is running a 4.4.2 bootloader, you can't downgrade to 4..1.1. You may be able to unlock the phone using the regionlockaway app on a rooted stock rom and older modem.

If the 919 s4 is like the i337m s4, you may be able to flash a stock ROM, flash a 4.2.2 modem, root, run regionlockaway, flash original modem, and phone will be unlocked.
As an alternative, you could flash back to a stock rom and buy an unlock code.
