You should be able to flash another firmware, but you will need to unlock the phone for use on another carrier(purchase the code from an unlocking company).

It will be IMEI blocked meaning it will not work with any carrier in your country, switching firmwares will not fix this and changing IMEI is not permitted to be discussed on XDA

Hi,
anyone can help me to unlock the HTC Fuze ? This is originally from AT&T. I bought from someone. Now I don't have his contact neither the unlock code. Is it possible if another rom is installed and the device is able to use my own sim ? Somehow I need to use my own sim which is not from AT&T.
there's no one to reply me ?
apparently u still have to pay to unlock it

Hello all,
this is my first entry on this forum, and sorry for opening a new thread, but i'm in a hurry in order to get my new Samsung Galaxy S I9000 phone.
The problem is that is locked on ORange .
Can you please post here, how do i Unlock it myself... in order to have an original Samsung firmware and to receive any software updates?
thank you very much.
Hurry or not, READ THE FAQ!
Unless you intend to use your phone with a different operator, there is no need to unlock.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i want to use it with other operator than ORANGE.
Can you please add some links with tutorials in order to make the phone working with all operators.
thank you
There are no tutorials or links, because you cannot unlock the galaxy s at the moment.

That's not entirely true. I unlocked my UK Orange locked Galaxy S. Just google for "NCK code samsung galaxy s". It cost me about $30 to get NCK code, but the shop I bought it from refunded me this amount. It was their fault to send me a locked phone instead of unlocked.
As for procedure of unlock... you just enter the code when you see a prompt for sim unlock code.
but if i will root it, i will not need any codes right?
i will be able to use it with any sim i want.....?

No. The SIM-lock remains after rooting and/or flashing!
soo there is not way to unlock it using a free method?
you can get unlock code here: http://cellunlocker.net/ they charge 25$ and it takes about 2 days to get you the code...

Anyone know if they would have the unlock codes for the captivate/vibrant?
All of the people in those forums that ive seen have tried unlock sites, and they ended up being refunded because an unlock code wasn't available.

Question should be posted in the Q&A section of the forum and not in general....what kind of help do you need? Every branded phone is locked to a specific carrier, unless you get the unlock code from your carrier or you sim unlock it.

Yes, you can use the Hack Kit to root, S-OFF and unlock your device, but also ask your carrier for it....it is up to you.
You could also just buy an unlock code for your phone of ebay for a few dollars or search Google for your unlock code
Hi Guys I'm working on a Project for a Client. He has some galaxy G960F/G965F and they are branded with a carrier Telstra Air and we would like a STOCK Rom to flash on phones to remove all traces of that Carrier info. Not looking for custom Rooted Rom, because he would like to be able to update the phones when a new software update comes out.
I have tried everything with NO Luck, and I'm sure one of your developers know how to do this. Please contact me private message if you already have this or would like to create it for me PLEASE, I will compensate$$$ you for your time. contact me so we can talk on skype or whatsapp. This is a Urgent Matter your Appreciation is More Than Welcome thank you!!!
PS Admin please advice me if its ok to post this thread thank you

What firmware are you on as far as I know tesltra air is just an app to automatically connect to free wi-fi on Telstra networks.
Are the phones network locked ie: can you put in another Sim from a different carrier like Optus or Vodafone.
What have you actually tried to do
what about this ?
G960FXXU2CSC8
(search on google and download it via sammobile , there is no bloatware and you can get the updates without a problem (with that one most of the time y get the security patch faster but you may loose some features)
or that G960FXXS3CSD2 it may take a few days more to get the update (based on my usage)

No the network is open I tried another sim from the USA: Tmobile, ATT, Verizon and Metropcs. Im on G960FXXU2CSC8 firmware version and I just upgrade to G960FOXM3CSD1.
Ok fellas I figured it out I follow the instructions from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...de-how-to-change-s9-s9-csc-model-csc-t3870836

Special thanks to those guys from the thread it really works!! Thank you Thank you guys and for all who replied and where willing to help. If anyone need help with this same situation contact me I can help
