Hey guys,
I bought a G925T and gonna have to use it in Brazil (with a brazilian sim card carrier).
Do you know how can I unlock the phone?
I'm reading here in XDA that is not possible to unlock the T-Mobile S6 Edge.
Anybody knows somenthing about that?
thank you!
To unlock the t-mobile phone you have to call the t-mobile costumer service and request them to add your imei to their white list. Then you have to go to the unlock app and push permanent unlock. You have to be connected to internet using the t-mobile network to make the unlock work.
Can be unlocked by usb cable now also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxOuHIUWAFk

Can you provide instructions or link?
yes can be done for 5.1.1 ,by imei only ,basically the method is and unlock on tmobile server,so it will work to unlock using the tmobile unlock app. This service can be considered maybe a bit more official as that presented in the video above,even if the results are the same,only problem is a bit more expensive
What time can you meet me? for remote unlock

Hey bro just wanted to say that please be careful. If the customer updates to version 5.1.1, the phone will not boot beyond the Samsung Logo, this happens only IF you're still tampering with the EFS. There are a few methods on how to unlock them now without affecting the phone....just wanted to inform you if you were still doing it via efs...

Hmm, I think I know who unlocked your phone in that case. Well the only way will be to update OTA, to do that your phone must be on STOCK firmware, no root. To do that flash over the firmware (system partition), when you do you can update OTA. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. You need to ask the person who unlocked your phone for your EFS Backup, this is important in case things go wrong.

Oh ok, if it's through z3x then you're fine. They don't tamper with EFS. Though I would still HIGHLY RECOMMEND to ask for your efs backup, trust me on this. I'm new to this forum, but I am a little familiarized with phones
so on 5.1.1 how can we unlock and do imei repair?

Hey I didn't know you had an account here too! Like I said brother, it has to do with efs and security partitions. ONLY IMEI repair at the moment, I do know someone who can root it...but solution is exclusive, won't share with anyone including myself....I'm sure you know who it was on the other side
just need the imei repair
just need the imei repair
Unlocking on G925T 5.1.1 is supported and also imei repair as well... check the ebay ads

Hi !
Just bought an online unlock code and when I enter it when prompted on my S3 it says network unlock unsuccessful, the guy on the website says I ruined my phone by rooting it and I was a smart kid thinking rooting my phone was cool..(Just told him the phone was rooted...)
Could the root really be the problem ? If yes, reverting to stock ROM and unrooting with a stock firmware would would work ? Is there any chances that I can't unlock the phone because of this ? Thanks guys !

I highly doubt it's because you're rooted. I've never heard of that one before. Seems like he's a scam.
Try this though...should work on any TWiz rom.

that customer service dude is worthless.
i believe you have to be on stock (touchwiz firmware) to unlock. i may be wrong
Not really!! Root hardly matters. And it doesn't need for you to be on stock to unlock. I unlocked mine on custom ROM, and my other S3 that's on rooted stock.

I have seen a number of the more experienced forum members answer this by saying that once you are on 4.3 with the official MJB bootloader you will need to use one of the pay services to sim unlock your phone.

You can request the unlock code via this URL ...https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
I haven't had any luck with them though using this request form as each time I've tried it's been with a phone I purchased from the secondary market and then they reply that the details on record don't match mine. Congress recently approved a bill making it legal to unlock your phone and I understand the new bill also includes a provision allowing third-parties who obtain the phone legally to request the unlock code. So perhaps things will be easier for everyone when the new bill becomes law and takes full effect.

I hope AT&T is cooperative. I am still able to go back to 4.1.1 on my SGS3 to unlock, but I never unlocked my Captivate - which is still functional. I keep it as a backup. It would be nice to have it unlocked.

How were you able to go back to 4.1.1? Right now im on 4.3 and people are saying not to downgrade or it'll brick your phone. All I wanna do is go back to 4.1.1 to unlock my phone and upgrade to 4.3.

Been perusing them for a bit. Not having much luck implementing for the moment. I think that is because I didn't have a sim in the phone. It's not a big issue to me at the moment. As a backup phone I don't actually need to unlock if I go with AT&T or even if I switch it to Straight Talk. Of course, it would need to be unlocked to use other prepaid options. Anyway, I subscribed to the threads I will revisit when necessary.
Hi I would like to know if theirs a way to unlock bootloader still with status no when going though service menu on this compact is this by rom choice default locked or firmware need a downgrade and then upgrade to custom. Or is theri more to it as dont want to brick my compact
No way, sorry.

You will never be able to unlock the bootloader on that phone, unless your carrier can give you some kind of code to change your unlock status (not sure this is even possible).

The BL is different, if it came from O2 then chances are you cant unlock the BL.
So there is no chance? It worked with xperia arc and omnius. Costs about 15$, that would be ok. But will it work with our z1c in the near future? Or is it just "luck" to find an exploit?

Well nothing is impossible, but it isn't likely as it requires a bootloader exploit. Realistically it isn't going to happen though, unless some smart people devote a lot of time to it. The most likely scenario (using test point to gain more software access) would require hardware tampering.
Hello Mentalghost,
Unfortunately there is no way to unlock the bootloader when the status is "No".
Have a great day, cheers!

MentalGhost, where did you purchase your phone? This phone isn't sold by any carriers in the USA, to the best of my knowledge, so the bootloader shouldn't be locked.

Bought in UK where I am not in USA. Might take back to shop where bought from and see if got any others in lol
Or wait for locked bootloader versions or someone makes modded version with unlocked rom that is been modded like one where you install modded that is unlocked install and then can unlock bootloader did in xperia s I use to have was a modded rom that was originally saying bootloader unlock no and added new Base rom and then said bootloadr unlock yes maybe this will happen on this phone in time or locked bootloader kernels and rom come along

I'd recommend to anyone that is still able to return a Phone to do so because I think you'll find you'll be waiting a long time for a solution.

Plus, there will be no solution. The reason why Xperia Arc S and other 2011 Xperias worked with testpoint method was because of that there was a big security flaw in the security of the testpoints nand access, but those flaws have been fixed in newer Xperias and newer 2011 Xperias also.

+1 It was coming to that realization that I sold my O2 locked Z after 6 months to buy an unbranded Z1 Compact. It worked out cheaper too spending hundreds of pounds up front for my Phone with the added bonus of having access to all of it.

i am with tmo it all depends on who you get and how present it to tmo on why you need it u locked i got mine unlocked on day one within a hour and im making payments granted ive been with them for like ten years so im sure that helps.ive done it before but i will admit it sounded harder this time the rep was like i will be right back with you i have to get this approved with a superviser ten minutes later he said it was approved and within 24 hours i would be able to unlock inrebooted phine from there and unlocked it.the oem lock in dev settings took 3 days before moto unlocked that as for unlocking my bootloader i havent went thay far yet i dont see the need yet and ive read you will not receive updates.honestly unless you are a developer there isnt alot on this device yet im sure it will come but i think ive seen one rom twrp i believe is spotty at the moment were probably a good three months atleast away before it really starts rolling.i will say it you use my way with metro make sure u sound like your in a officail compasity and you have a need as mot to spill the beans thats all i will say and good luck
