I'm in need of some help. I have a Rogers Samsung Captivate Glide. I have succesfully unlocked the phone before using a unlock code given to me by the seller. I recently factory reset the phone and it asked me for the network unlock code. Since I was unable to contact the original seller I purchased my own code on ebay. To my knowledge the numbers did seem familiar compared to the last code I was given. Unfortunately it did not work this time around and I am now out of attempts and the phone is completely unusable and just stays on a screen that tells me to contact my service provider.
I have unlocked many phones before and I have never had a problem with them re locking after a reset. I did some research and have read that this is a known issue with the glides relocking after a reset.
Yes, I did double check the imei before submitting my order and I did make sure to enter the correct code. I also did some more research but was not able to find anyone with my exact problem. If I mised it I apologiize.
So basically my question is is there anyway I can unlock it by rooting or flashing a custom rom or something of the sort? Yes I am a noob.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

there may be a time frame you have to wait until it resets and allows use of the phone, if not, try rebooting into recovery and doing a full wipe/factory reset including wiping the cache. that might get you going.

Thanks for the reply. I've already tried that though. The phone is completely stock. I went into recovery did a full wipe/ factory reset and wiped the cache. Still no luck...

It won't unlock now. You'll have to take it to the carrier otherwise you're out of luck.

Have you tried the emergency recovery thing in Kies? That should wipe out everything...
When my glide got locked, I used this solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1595756
you might want to try it.
I used Adam's guide to bypass the bootloader as I have the newer version and probably already had the OTA update.
I want to unroot my device now. Do I strictly use odin and the stock file?
When I boot into download mode here are my stats.
SCH-I605
No
Samsung Official
Custom
This does mean that it has voided the warranty.. correct?
I'm ok with just getting back to stock. I don't want to risk getting bricked trying to use triangle away to reset the counter.
What's the best path to get back to stock at this point?
I know I should have found this somewhere but I've been reading SO many forums here and it's confusing after you have the OTA update.
Your counter is not raised so you don't need triangle away. Thats all I can help.
There is a different forum for verizon note 2 so look there.
People here would probably not be able to help you much because verizon version is a lot different then international version.

Oops. I put it in the wrong place. Thanks for the response! That's good news if my counter hasn't changed. I know the status of shows modified on my settings, but oh well.
Flashing Stock ROM with Odin will unroot device
if needs you can wipe cache and data to make status Normal
If you want just status -Normal without unroot, try this
Setting - Application manager - All - SysScope - clear data
do same with Enterprise SysScope if available

I flashed I605VRLJB_I605VRALJB which was the stock I think I needed for Verizon 4G LTE Note 2. Not sure where I would do the wipe cache and data. It shows the status as modified under my settings. If it's too difficult, I'm not that worried. If my warranty is void, maybe it will teach me to take care of my phone. Lol

Help a Noob unroot
I did Adams Casual Verizon 1 click root with recovery months ago now I want to return to stock to do the OTA update that's been a defer nag. I'm tired of deferring it. How do I return the phone to stock, I tired of searching for the right forum or u-tube vids for a simple straight forward step by step procedure. Right now I have the I605VRAMC3 Build. Someone please advise, this is my 3rd GN2 and I don't want to brick it again. The 1st one I bricked and the 2nd replacement, the phone just stopped sending/receiving data. Then can I run the 1 click again to re-root?
I've just upgraded to 4.4 here on my Nexus 7 which has broken Kingsoft office which I require for my work.
Whilst I wait for a fix from Kingsoft, is there any way to roll back to 4.3 without voiding my warranty?

Try quick office. It's free and works fine.
If you still want to roll back, you can do without voiding warranty

also your bootloader needs to unlocked for it to work and you will lose your data if you unlock the bootloader now.

You can rollback to 4.3 system software however if you try to keep your user data your system will hang at boot. If you have a backup of your 4.3 user data then that is not a big deal. Alternatively if you wipe data factory reset from recovery that will get things working again.
You do need to unlock your bootloader and flash the factory images though.

You need to have the bootloader unlocked to flash anything unsigned. Currently the only thing Google sends out that is signed are the OTAs. There is no OTA from KRT16S/O back to JSS15*, so your only option is to use a factory restore. Since the factory restores shipped so far are not signed, you need to unlock bootloader.
You can unlock the bootloader here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2379618
During the process of unlocking bootloader, the system will wipe your userdata and sdcard for security reasons.
The post you reference assumes your bootloader is already unlocked.
So, you got two options left.
You need to unlock the bootloader under both methods. Remember it wipes user data completely.
After unlocking you can either flash the factory image for 4.3 or use the one click factory restore.
Personally I feel one click factory restore is easier

Yes, but I may be mistaken but unlocking the boot loader may constitute as voiding the warranty as well.
You would have to unlock it, which will wipe, downgrade to 4.3, then relock it to make it look stock.
Thanks guys I'm back on 4.3. How do I re-lock the boot loader?

You can get back to the 4.3 ROM w/o wiping user data (as a result of the unlock)
However the 4.3 ROM will not boot (will hang at X animation) with your user data once the 4.4 upgrade process has completed on your user data, so you will probably end up wiping user data anyway to get the boot to complete.

Boot to bootloader (Power+VolDown)
in command prompt in your SDKs platform-tools directory
fastboot oem lock
Unlike unlocking, you will NOT have to wipe user data when locking.
Locking just sets a flag so it is very fast.
However, I would leave it unlocked if I were you and you are not selling it or getting warranty work done. If you ever need to unlock again you are going to be in the same boat of losing all of your data.

Let me ask a question. I've got my bootloader unlocked and I've downloaded the stock 4.3.2 from the Google Developer's site. If I don't want to do the one click restore can someone point me in the right direction for a good step by step? I've looked at a couple of different ones but none looked right or I'm not reading things correctly. To be honest I can't find the one I read from a couple of days ago. It addresses dealing with the tarball you get when you download the image from Google, but I'm really really bad about not using bookmarks. So I'm kinda stuck at this point now. Thanks in advanced.

Hey guys,
I've been trying to unlock my phone for a few days now. Long story short, I moved from Canada to Japan and now I want to unlock my S3 to use a Japanese SIM.
I bought an unlock code from eBay. I was previous running cyanogenmod but then I was told that rooting will cause issues, so I unrooted my phone after an unsuccessful SIM unlock attempt. (wiped the phone, installed stock TW)
Even after unrooting I still had issues, and was given directions for the Service mode. That did not work either. I have tried many different methods and troubleshooting tips and nothing seems to have worked.
Here are some screenshots of the debug mode, my phone details, and a simple root checker app I installed.
puu.sh/dPN0p.png
Here are some specs: SGH-i747m Samsung Galaxy S3 on Bell running official firmware 4.4.2
Thanks for reading, and I really hope someone can help ;_;
Does your phone display the correct imei as the one you provided to the unlocker? The imei using the dial pad is the same as the imei on label attached to the phone?

Yes it displays the same IMEI on the label of the phone, and when using *#06# on the dial pad.
Despite my flashing back to stock, multiple sellers I have been through on eBay believe my phone is still rooted. One of my friends believed the people on eBay are at fault.
I then bought a code from a somewhat reputable looking website (cellunlocker.net) and received the exact same code. They had provided some additional troubleshooting methods but they did not work.
So it just won't accept the code or the prompt to enter the code doesn't appear on the screen?

The prompt appears on screen no problem. It won't accept the code. Please refer to the screenshots I posted in the OP (the puu,sh link)
Is there some extra step I can do to get my phone back to normal? I thought just flashing stock and wiping data/cache would do it but I'm still having problems and I can't figure them out.
I'm aware downgrading firmware is out of the question, but I really have no options left.
I haven't technically activated the Japanese SIM card yet. Could that be an issue?
Did you restore stock using Odin and firmware from sammobile.com?
Don't attempt to downgrade if you have a 4.4.2 bootloader as that could brick your phone.

Yes I grabbed firmware from sammobile and flashed with Odin. I made sure to match the last four digits in the baseband of my phone which is FNH2 so I downloaded this one from sammobile
sammobile /firmwares/download/34795/I747MVLUFNH2_I747MOYCFNH2_BMC.zip/
On the Odin "Downloading..." screen, my warranty bit is 1. Could that be causing the issue?
If so how do I fix that
The warranty bit will not prevent your from unlocking the phone. When a phone is shipped, the warranty bit is set at 0. If a person flashes any non-Samsung approved software, it will change the warranty bit from 0 to 1. It cannot be reset to 0.
When flashing with Odin, I prefer 3.07. So you are just unzipping the file and flashing the tar.md5 file in PDA section? Try again but only check F reset time. Once you see reset in the status window, remove the usb cable, remove the battery, boot into recovery, do a factory wipe, and reboot.

Even doing a SmartSwitch (or Odin) flash won't remove the lock. No amount of flashing or resetting will remove it. The lock is stored in a hidden partition that is never touched by flashes and resets.
There are ways to remove the lock, but they're paid services offered by professionals

Samsung phones can be frp unlocked by flashing firmware
I have personally FRP unlocked 2 Samsung phones by flashing the stock firmware usin Odin. A samsung j7 and a Samsung s5. I am getting so sick of people saying you can't do something when they have no clue. I have also flashed older versions into phones. That's how I rooted the s5 infact. When everyone was saying it was impossible to root at the time. As soon a I figure out how to use sp flash or something to flash different phones other than Samsung I will post saying how it worked not get on someone else's post and say it will never work it's impossible. The world of computers, phones and software is suppose to be open source not locked, hidden and full of viruses.

The FRP data is stored in the "persistent" partition, which is never touched by a firmware flash, just like EFS and a bunch of other partitions.
So no.
That doesn't matter when the phone no longer has a persistent partition.

You obviously think you know something and I wont argue or dispute whether you do or dont but I know what I did for sure and what I did was flash stock firmware into those phones and they where no longer FRP locked afterwards. Also When the phone is bricked the phone is flashed blank. There are no patitions if flashed blank. Even when there is persistent data it's still data that is able to be edited with a custom rom which can be flashed after you flash stock rom. I dont know much but I know what I have done personally. My wife is still using her rooted j7 with note 8 D.N.A undetected that we bought f.r.p. locked.
So ya. Just because the internet says it's not possible doesn't mean it's not possible It just means you haven't tried hard enough to prove it yourself. Brick that phone if you have to. Build with that brick.

I own a business that does FRP removals and many other software-related services for mobile devices . I've done this for years - knowing this type of thing is literally my job.
The "persistent" partition is ALWAYS there - just like system, boot, recovery, and all the others. And I promise you, you can't remove an FRP lock by throwing it in Download mode and flashing some firmware with Odin, just like you can't remove it by booting to recovery mode and doing a factory reset. It's just not that easy.
Your going to need to go against the grain her a moment . Business or no business

I'm telling you. I'm not debating the facts. Im telling you what I did. Kinda like I did today with a Moto e4 play. I bypassed frp with flashing stock rom through Odin and then custom rom on the Samsung J7. Today I bypassed frp lock with twrp on the Moto e4 with the bootloader still saying OEM locked . I don't have a business in the phones field but I am a business man and sittin on 12 frp locked phones gets tire some. Thant goodness for broken digitizers and displays or I'd still have a bunch more of them. I wont dipute that you know what your doing because likely you do more so than I; we can can probably be certain. I'm just going to tell you the 100 percent fact. Upset wife as my motivating factor I successfully unlocked and rooted a j7 by flashing stock rom into it with Odin then custom reccovery then root then custom rom. The custom recovery I used by accident was for a different brand Jay 7 so mysecond time around I tried the "right" recovery and bricked it. Then again and again and again until Knox was tripped and that's when finally I took bl,ap cp, csc and flashed them in dl mode successfully from there I had Rob from simple cell unlock ( Thanks Rob your the best) remotely unlock the jay7 from T-Mobile after which I flashed the "wrong" proper twrp file giving me the ability to install custom note 8 dna rom into the system. Took two tries, first try I flashed no encrypt no verity but it custom rom frp locked. So second time I made sure I install the developer tools package with OEM unlock switch not able to be turned off then no encrypt no verity. It was a very long process since especially since it was only my second successful full root. Then vallet. Man becomes praised by wife. Man feels empowered man tears apart more phones makes mess, MAN HAPPY! WIFE HAPPY! LOL okay sorry about that part.

Thinking you can flash TWRP on a locked bootloader device shows me exactly what your knowledge level is when it comes to all of this. Future discussion would be futile, and no more responses from me will be had. I do wish you luck with your devices though
How frustrating you are.
Your business need some schooling it sounds like. Your business can't be doing good. Go ahead and Google the Moto e4 unlock method. You will see. You have to try before you say it won't work.

I just removed the frp lock on my s6 using a combination firmware (found here-https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=7410) which completely erased all partions and allowed me to access the settings menu to enable the OEM unlock setting. They are two different firmware there. I used the second one and it worked like a charm. Hope this helps
