So One Of My Friend Is Selling Me A Used At&t S3 On Stock 4.4.2 For Quite Cheap. But My Problem Is ( Correct Me If Im Wrong) I Think I Read An Article Stating That You Cannot Use Custom Roms On S3s On Stock 4.4.2 Or It Will Brick It . Is This Correct ? An S3 Serves No Purpose To Me On Stock TOUCHWIZ . So Is It Possible To Root And Flash Custom Roms On S3s On OFFICIAL STOCK 4.4.2 TOUCHWIZ ?

The bootloader is not locked on the AT&T S3 (I747). You can use Odin to flash a custom recovery and flash any ROMs for d2att/d2lte you want. No unlocking required. It is a pretty modder friendly phone.
The thing you cannot do on the newer bootloaders is downgrade the bootloader. Attempts to downgrade anything beyond the 4.3 bootloader will result in a hard brick. This also prevents you from using the free sim unlocking method because it involves a firmware downgrade to 4.1. If you need to sim unlock the phone to use it on a different network you'll have to get a code from AT&T (they should provide one since a phone this old just about has to be off contract) or purchase one from a third party.

I concur with @jason2678
I have an AT&T SGS3 (d2att/i747) that is on the NE4 bootloader and modem (4.4.2) and am running CM11 atm. As a matter of fact, none of the CM or AOSP roms since late in 4.4.2 development will run unless you are on one of the 4.4.2 bootloaders (NE4, NJ1, NJ2)
What you stated, quoted above, is true for the Verizon SGS3 (d2vzw/i535).

Hello I am new here and could you please tell me the status of my phone since the phone does not provide me with option to enter unlock code after I inserted other carrier SIM.
I already have my unlock code given by AT&T.
I have CWM custom recovery installed
My phone info from Samsung Phone info Apps is
Bootloader version : I747UCUEMJB
PDA Version : I747UCUFNE4
CSC Version : I747ATTFNE4
Baseband Version : I747UCUEMJB
I have searched and tried with service mode method *#197328640# without success
Is Sim unlock related to bootloader
Thanks

It appears that you have an NE4/Android4.4.2/KitKat rom installed over 4.3 bootloader and modem. I have seen several custom TouchWiz roms that run fine with this setup as long as one of a couple of custom kernels were installed. CM and AOSP roms will also run in this condition. BUT, from what I have read you will not be able to use the unlock codes. My reading indicates that you must be on complete stock ROM for the code to work, including stock recovery instead of CWM. ALSO, what I have read says that you only gt five attempts before the code becomes invalid.
I don't know why your phone is not asking for the unlock code, unless it has already been carrier unlocked. Even thouhg it is not asking for the code, does it function as it should?
Frequently the service modes do not work on custom roms, even TW based ones, because they are not using the stock dialers. I have also seen it reported that some were disabled with the 4.3 update and others in more recent updates.
Proceed carefully.
You may be able to enter the unlock code if the phone is running a stock dialler with a matching bootloader and modem combination.

Thanks for respond
I had this phone since 3 years ago (new from ATT) and rooted stock rom with CWM 6.0.4.7 recovery touch . and I remember that I could unlocked through SERVICE MODE when I was overseas. ( sure I had used this phone with Other carrier) about 1 year ago I put this phone in my drawer I did factory reset and installed Stock firmware and update OTA to 4.3.
Last week I want to use this phone with Tmobile SIM but got Phone Not Allowed MM#6 message . The rom was still 4.3, Contact AT&T and got Unlock code.
but this phone didn't ask for unlock code entry option and still 4.3 , tried the whole weekend with service mode and upgrade to 4.4.2 via CWM recovery.
and still no luck
With your suggestion , it means that I don't have choice to downgrade back to 4.3 rom same with my bootloader and baseband? I heard we can't downgrade if we already in 4.4.2 , is that true?
But I still use stock recovery from CWM.
Before I proceed with replacing with stock recovery, is the stock recovery have to be 4.3 stock recovery or any version for S3? do I need to use odin to change to stock recovery?
if you have good link please help?
Thanks again

Stock dialer means the entire Rom must be replaced to match my bootloader and modem combination or just replace the dialer in my case and still use 4.4.2?
Appreciated if you can help, thanks
Stock dialler requires a stock Samsung kernel.
From what I am seeing, you are on the 4.3 bootloader and modem. As I said before, there are custom TouchWiz 4.4.2 Roms that will run on the 4.3 bootloader and modem. Changing to a 4.3 rom, stock or otherwise, therefore would not be downgrading your bootloader and modem.
What rom are you on?
Some of the custom TouchWiz roms use dialers from the S5, therefore not stock for the S3.
Some of the custom TouchWiz Roms use the stock kernel, some use a custom kernel.
Did you flash a custom kernel?
What is your kernel version? (check under Settings > About Phone)
With the answers to the questions I asked, audit13 and I may be able to give more definite guidance. It could be as simple as flashing the stock kernel and a stock dialer. But, I can't tell at the moment.

Are you saying you unlocked it before? If so it should still be unlocked. Flashing/wiping won't affect that, so it's pretty much a permanent thing. If so, maybe the Sim card you're using is an older one? they don't always work on tmobiles networks.

Thank you for your responses , Sorry I couldn't response any sooner as I worked in mountain/forest area that browsing the web is luxury
(yes I remember for sure I have used this cell phone overseas couple times and the way I unlocked through service mode. Way before AT&T OTA update since new)
I have weird situation that make me wondering if I had unlocked my S3 since message
"PHONE NOT ALLOWED MM#6" comes up if I use any other carrier beside AT&T
Per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789917
thanks to OP
I just managed to change my bootloader to I747UCUFNE4 and also my baseband version to I747UCUFNE4
I still keep my CWM 6.0.4.7 recovery touch
I have Flashed with countless other rom such below:
I747UCUFNE4_Stock_Rooted_Odex.zip
I747UCUFNE4_Stock_Rooted_Deodex_3-31-15.zip
I747UCUFNE4_Stock_Rooted_3-31-15.zip
and even custom rom without any success
This was happened with my S3 after flash.
if I flashed with inserted active SIM Card (T Mobile or foreign SIM Card)
I will see PHONE NOT ALLOWED MM#6 after reboot
if I flashed without any SIM Card inserted after reboot :
- inserted foreign sim card and reboot again
I will have AT&T as roaming provider and for about few seconds received text message about fee from SIM issuer roaming to AT&T so means My S3 is unlocked...
(no... not so much!!!) in few minute I will have "PHONE NOT ALLOWED MM#6" and phone is useless as emergency only.
- inserted T-Mobile Sim Card and reboot again it shows "PHONE NOT ALLOWED MM#6" immediately
My Kernel Version :
3.4.0-1514807

Thank you if you can help.
So you are not getting asked enter a network unlock code when running a stock rom with a foreign sim?
Does your provider use aws frequencies? The i747 does not natively support T-Mobile aws frequencies.

No, It doesn't ask at all. just pop up "Phone not allowed MM#6."
my foreign SIM is ok.
I tested on Galaxy Note 4 T-Mo (unlocked) it grabbed ATT roaming,
tested on Iphone 4S (ATT-unlocked) it grabbed Tmobile roaming:laugh:
I just flashed stock recovery and still no go..
do I need to unroot?
Can I flash stock root rom with stock recovery
Thanks
What rom was on the phone when you inserted a foreign sim?
If you are running a Samsung rom, try this:
Www.unlockriver.com/Samsung-unlocking
I am using I747UCUFNE4_Stock_Rooted_3-31-15.zip
I just replaced CWM recovery with UCUFNE4 stock recovery
I did unroot with SuperSU and also
do factory setting through setting menu
basically my phone just as new factory setting but with UCUFNE4
the funny thing is :System Status: Custom is this related I have rooted this device before?
When I turn on bootloader mode (Odin Mode)
product name : SGH-I747
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
Qualcomm secure boot : enable
warranty bit: 1
bootloader ap Swrev: 3
as I have stated at my 1st post that I had official unlock code from AT&T and got email from them the unlock PIN
but there is no option asking to key in the PIN with other carrier sim inserted .
I have checked also with Swappa esn check
and result is
Blacklisted => Not Indicated
This device does not appear to be globally blacklisted.
spent countless hours just to beat solving this device and read the threads and no result. And still "PHONE NOT ALLOWED MM#6"
Hello,
I live in Korea and not an AT&T carrier user. So, I have never received AT&T's OTA.
I tried to connect my Galaxy S7 Active to Samsung Smart Switch, but Samsung Smart Switch says my phone's firmware is the newest version.
My phone's baseband version is G891AUCU1APE7, and build number is MMB29M.G891AUCU1APE7.
Am I unable to update my phone forever?
I want to update my phone's firmware.
I desperately need your help...
Thank you.
ATT only updates there phones OTA... you have to be on the att network to get it to update.

Given that they allow unlocking of the device, that is a ridiculous policy. I can only hope that someone will be able to download the image so that we can use odin.
looking on the S6 Active thread, they find the update downloads on AT&T site, not sure how ?? you can easily find out WHAT update is the newest ..
then either flash via Odin, or 'side' load it ...
but i couldnt find out how they were getting the links from AT&T site to download direct ..
Updating outside USA
in order to update this device outside of USA you should get a At&t SIM card (whit active account), put and seek for updates and will work, I made it a couple of hours and I was able to update.....All this thanks to a friend who lives in Usa and came to visit my country and lend his sim card to do the test ...
Do AT&T have such things as pre-paid sim cards? And could I activate one outside of the USA?

It exists and is called GoPhone, only you would have to do it through some friend or trustworthy person who lives in the USA and can buy it and send it to your country ... is what I will do for the next updates
(Was a scam site, sorry)
now we have these phones rooted, could people in the US with a OTA updates, pull /dump the updates
for us people outside US to flash via Odin ? ...
I'm looking into purchasing this device but have second thoughts due to firmware update availability (not to mention custom ROM support).
Anyway, related to the topic above, I have an AT&T prepaid GO Phone SIM but it is already deactivated/expired. Can I use this old prepaid SIM to update the device firmware outside US?
Side question, what is the difference between SM-G891 and SM-G891A? I see it often when looking for this device.
Thanks.

Hi All,
I have Samsung S9 Unlocked T-mobile from US and currently in India. Currently i have Oreo Version.
As all know, it doesnt have VOLTE option enabled which is needed for my sim network for voice calls to go through.
Somewhere i read Pie update will have VOLTE option and hence i am trying to update to Pie update.
I downloaded G960USQS6CSGB firmware for T-mobile, but before upating firmware using Odin, i got doubt if it will stick to T Mobile after update. This will make my phone not usable in India.
I tried to check online, but couldnt get direct answer and hence posting in new thread.
Can someone help clarify if it will lock the mobile to T-Mobile or will the phone be still in unlocked state?
Also i see two CSC files in the firmware folder. CSC and HOME_CSC. Which one to use?
If I should update with some other firmware for being unlocked and yet to get PIE update, please point to required firmware name or links.
Also will updating to PIE update will have VOLTE option ? Kindly confirm.
Thanks in Advance.

csc will factory reset your phone, home_csc wont
volte wasnt removed from pie, so that shouldnt be an issue
the firmware version you posted has the 6th bootloader revision, im betting here is a 7th available for your phone, but the 6th version should be fine as well
as far as the unlocked state of the phone goes, it shouldnt re-lock, but im paranoid lol. Have you looked into the U1 versions of the phones firmware? Theyre inherently unlocked firmwares and dont have any of that irritating bloatware **** in them

if it has no financial obligation to any carrier and the phone locks to that carrier, then the carrier it locked to would be required to release it. I cant imagine how it would lock to t-mob tho
Factory unlocked phones stay unlocked, no matter what firmware you flash.
Carrier locked phones that were properly unlocked by the carrier (they provide the code to SIM unlock the phone) will stay unlocked, again, no matter what firmware you flash to it - as long as it's compatible. Flashing the wrong firmware may just brick the phone. But, at least it's still SIM unlocked.
Phones that had some kind of software hack installed to trick the phone into thinking it's unlocked will lose the unlock status when you flash a firmware that also wipes the phone. Then it will come back as carrier locked again, because the hack is gone.
That last case is the only case I know of that will "re-lock" a phone. I've never heard of a carrier unlocked phone spontaneously re-locking under any circumstance.
Hi,
Thanks for the details. I tried to flash G960U1UES6CSG4_G960U1OYM6CSG4_XAA firmware. But while loading AP file in ODIN, it gave some error. Couldnt understand what is the error as its in chinese.
Then i loaded G960USQS6CSGB_G960UOYN6CSGB_TMB firmware which i downloaded previously. This got loaded in ODIN without any issues. And i am able to flash to phone. On rebooting, saw that phone moved to Pie version.
But i couldnt find VOLTE option (Enhanced calling) option. Does anyone know which version will enable that option?
Or anyother way to enable that please.
Thanks in advance.

if your Odin error messages are in Chinese, youve obtained a modified version. Itll probably work, but youll get that Chinese stuff whenever it needs to tell you anything. I dont know which versions have volte tbh. Sorry man.

yeah, sort of. The CSC's on these things are weird. Im starting to believe that these new versions of android are just like windows ISOs where they have all the versions compressed into one file and it uses a directory file to tell the firmware which version to install. Im sure a code writing dev can confirm or deny this thought, but at this point its merely a weak theory

would just want to know by any chance if flashing another rom pr rooting the device will remove the network lock of my carrier?
Thank you
I need a method to unlock the device, tried a lot of paid services already,most of them dont have an unlock code yet for my device and some sent me a wrong unlock code

As far as I'm aware NO it won't remove carrier lock, you'll just have to wait for that to become available......:good:
No it won't work
Thank you
any reliable unlocking companies?

The most reliable unlocking company would be the carrier itself

Hi
I made a stupid mistake with my G988B, its were not working well, so I decided install a stock rom, but downloaded and installed o last version of software from another country (G988BXXS2ATD5, XEF ) whit Security Level Patch of may 1, 20.
After installed new stock rom, my phone ask for Network Unlock Code.
When realized of my mistake, tried reinstall orignal version of firmware (G988BXXU1ATCT, PGU) but nothing work for me. I have tried to flash with Odin, but always, process stop in "flashing vbmeta.img."
I have read a lot tread trying figure out my problem like: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s20/how-to/howto-root-s20-series-upgrade-firmware-t4079353/post82220417#post82220417
There is a way to come back original stock rom and then trying unlock network?
Could this process work in my case without damaging my phone?
Thanks.

Thanks por your answer, but I did it.
It doesnt work.
Samkey is the only way to unlock a Samsung phone other than getting the network unlock code from the network or third party. You must know what you are doing. Google the process. If that doesn't work then there is an issue here that needs further investigation. Also ensure your active csc code is the one that was originally on the phone as well as stock rom. Sam key can be used to change csc as well.
Good luck

Thanks mikey_sk,
My problem is that both the csc code and the stock rom are not the original ones. Therefore I am looking for a guide to help me how to get back to the stock rom.
I have read that the problem is, the security patch that I installed as it is newer than the one I am trying to reinstall. I will keep trying.
I understand that so far there is no way to go back from binary 2 to binary 1.
Any help is appreciated.

Ok,
Thanks.
No more questions.
You can always use the sim slot 2, it is usually not locked.
I suggest you change the csc to a stock one using Sam key. Make sure you enable USB debugging in developer settings otherwise Sam key won't work. After that dowload the most recent stock rom for that device from sammobile and flash in ODIN but DO NOT use HOME_CSC so it can do a full wipe and rebuild the firmware. As an added measure as soon as installed go into recovery and do a full wipe. If network is still locked try unlocking it with samkey

Unfortunately for it, you mentioned only sim1 is blocked and you still can use sim2.
This is not network lock but rather imei blacklist.
The only way to fix this is to pay your telco bills from where you purchased the phone. If it's a used phone, I would get a refund. There is no roms you can use that can fix it as it's blacklisted from the telcos.
There is only 2 reasons it is locked.
1. You didn't pay your installment bills.
2. The phone is reported as stolen.
If you purchased a used phone, get a refund.
sm-g975u unlocked att phone wanting to change to tmobile. I have a tmobile sim and had originally plugged this in. The phone works fine but I recently noticed it has no Ota updates occurring. I would like to load tmobile firmware on it to enable some of the tmobile features as well but primary concern is ota updates.
the service provider sw ver.

When I try says fully updated when I put it on samsung switch it says fully updated
Can this be done?
What firmware do you suggest?
Csc *#272imei#(may have that wrong) but is recognized and does work not sure when and what to use here, many options.
Also, not sure of the answer here, but if I run an update or csc change (the phone is unlocked) would it require me to unlock it again for any reason?
I am trying to get the phone close to a tmobile if that is possible
Thank you in advance if i need to give more info please let me know.
Download the firmware of your current network and flash you will begin to receive updates. However you can also flash the unbranded one which is G975U1 and you will still receive updates too
Can you give directions on how to get the firmware for the current network and how to flash the phone? I have an SM-G975U that is on SPR that I need to get to ATT so it will get updates from cricket. I have found a lot of materials on the internet and not a single one shows all of the steps clear enough for me to risk blowing up my phone. I have found the SPR files and TMK, and USA, and TMB, but no ATT.
