At the beginning, i gave my girlfriend a galaxy ace GT-S5830i.
My Network is the Telenor, Her is the T-Mobile.
So i wanted to unlock it..
All the methods of the GT-S5830 isnt worked.
After few long days, ive found a relock method (Network Provider Change (not unlock))
Progies, you need:
- Android SDK (or simply an ADB environment, below uploaded)
- KIES (only for the drivers)
- Root file(below uploaded)
- Hex editor(Below uploaded)
First you have to root your phone.
- Copy the update.zip to SD card
- Turn off phone
- Press and hold the Home button, and the volume up button.
- Press and hold the power button, until the Galaxy Ace text appears and disappears.
- When disappears, release only the power button...
- Wait until the Galaxy Ace text appears and turns into bright yellow.
- Release all the buttons, and the recovery comes up.
-Choose the apply update from SD card, then choose the zip, you copied.
reboot your phone...
Alright, Here comes the relock procedure
- First make sure, the usb debug is turned on...
[Settings>applications>Development>USB Debugging]
and the drivers are installed correctly (if it isn't, then install KIES)
- exrtact the ADB.zip from below to C:\
- Open Start Menu, then open Run command, and write here :
cmd
Then a command prompt comes up..
The commands:
Code:
c:
cd adb
adb shell
su !! A SU windows pops up in your phone.. Allow it !!
cat dev/block/bml15 > /data/local/bml15.bin
exit
exit
adb pull data/local/
Open this link:
h t t p :// en . wikipedia . org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code [remove the spaces]
Search for your current MCC and MNC.
and the provider, you wanted to change to.
write it down. First the MCC and then the MNC
For example i'd like to change from hungarian Telenor to hungarian T-Mobile
So for the hungarian telenor's MCC is 216 and MNC is 01 => 21601
and the hungarian T-Mobile's MCC is 216 and MNC is 30 => 21630
Extract the XVI32, you downloaded.
open it, and open the bml15.bin in your C:\ADB
Press ctrl+F
At the Text String line enter your code (my example code is: 21601)
press ok
Change it to your next code (My example next code is: 21630)
Save it as bml15_unlocked.bin
Then open your command prompt again.
Code:
c:
cd adb
adb push bml15_unlocked.bin /data/local/bml15_unlocked
adb shell
su
dd if=/data/local/bml15_unlocked of=/dev/bml15
exit
exit
Reboot your phone with the new sim card

Forget about this commands, if your device is S5830i then download Galaxy Toolbox from Google Play Store! It's free...

some will prefer to press a button some want the hard way and finally all are winners
unfortunately I don't have a Samsung phone to test it but surely someone is to appreciate first post on this thread too !
Great post Cuii easy to follow!
I was able to pull the bml15.bin. But now when I opened it, I have trouble finding the unlocking code. It doesn't seem tho match the wikipage
Can someone tell me on which line the code can be found? It's mentioned in XVI32 on the left (in hexadecimal) and on the bottom in decimal address.
Thanks!
<edit> : never mind it turned out my new phone was already simlock free !!! it was supposed to be simlock at delivery. I guess my provider made a mistake
Thanks this has saved my mates phone (he imported it was supposed to be unlocked but it wasnt). I tried every other procedure without success but this worked. Cheers
very nice tutorial keep sharing THANKS!!!!
Did not work
Hello I tried the rooting as suggested and my phone does not turn on now. All it does is flash, I tried to flash my phone and still does the same thing after it reboots. Odin says that it passes but it still does not.
Any suggestions?
thanks

Using Dorky's way of unlocking my GT-S5830i was exactly what I needed, so I made a sizeable donation and I won't say thank you:laugh:

I know you said not to say thanks but are you aware of the heartache you save some ppl who are trying to unlock their phones, not to mention time. I spent hours trying to unlock my 5830i with the Root, Busybox, Galaxy Unlock method all to no avail, I kept getting that the unlock code was "or or or or" with no actual codes showing. I had convinced myself my phone could not be unlocked because of the i after the 5830 as everybody with a std 5830 seemed to be doing fine, that was until I found your great app. To be honest I have not donated as things are not that great but I will. :good:
Thanks a lot!
Succesfully unlocked my 5830.

On the board I found numerous examples of the dd command to make a copy of the efs memory block. But they also use:
dd if=/dev/block/stl4 of=/sdcard/stl4.bin bs=4096
(stl4 is efs for Galaxy S)
Why the bs=4096 parameter?
Cheers

Enter this in Terminal:
Code:

5. Open /sdcard/stl5.rfs (or copy it to PC and open it from there) with winimage (free download) or similar.
6. Extract from it the file: mits/perso.txt
7. Open: perso.txt. You will find an 8 digit code. This is your Network Unlock code.
8. Insert an unaccepted SIM card (from a locked carrier). Your phone will ask you for the Network Unlock code.
9. Insert the 8 digit code (Network Unlock code) from perso.txt.
10. Thank tweakradje!
That's it!
All of the above applications and programs can be googled.
PS: This was done for Vodafone RO.

# Mi8Lite # Android10 # Camera2api Requirements: –Bootloader Unlocked –TWRP installed, does not work with other recoverys –The recovery must not be encrypted –Not have root ADB COMMAND METHOD IN TWRP * Start in TWRP and connect to PC * On the PC, open a command window inside the adb or platform-tools folder * Type these commands: (after each command hit Enter)
-adb devices adb shell
-setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1
-setprop persist.camera.eis.enable 1
-setprop persist.vendor.camera.HAL3.enabled 1
-setprop persist.vendor.camera.eis.enable 1
-exit adb reboot
"Adb devices" is not recognized: If after placing the first command, the PC does not recognize your device in Recovery mode; in TWRP go to the MOUNT box and look for the 'Disable MTP' option, press and it should show you 'Enable MTP'; try again with "adb devices" and continue * If camera 2api was not activated, try one more time with these commands: adb devices adb shell
setprop persist.camera.stats.test 5
setprop persist.vendor.camera.stats.test 5
exit adb reboot
–Check with "Manual Camera compatibility test" the status of camera 2api –After this I could try to root and check if camera 2api stays activated –It is possible that activating camera 2api will stop working the front camera of the native camera. –Added commands will be erased with a factory reset.
note: I saw it in a group of Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite and I wanted to share it here to find out if anyone knows the veracity of this
Any other module?
