Sorry in advance!
I just got my N910P.05 in the mail today and I'm trying to unlock the SIM to use with ATT.
I turned the phone on, connected to wifi and *boom* OE1.........
I've been scouring everywhere to find a ROM/unlock method but I'm unfamiliar with Samsung devices and I couldn't find a 'concise' thread.
Sorry for such a vague question and thanks XDA/DEVS!

I don't believe any DSU (domestic SIM unlock) methods have been found for the Note 4. Sprint will unlock for international use, but not domestic. Sorry.

OK- I got my Verizon Pixel XL 128 in today at lunch. I set it on the charger, and haven't turned it on yet. I wanted to see what was going on with the Forums before I did. I do have a spare TMobile Sim I can use. I also still have my 3rd version of the Note 7 (That hasn't even gotten the slightest bit hot)... so I am not in a hurry to activate the Pixel XL 128.
If you give me directions, I will perform whatever steps you'd like and report back. If you'd like message me... I can provide my cell and we can talk through it-
Thanx-
Darin
i booted with no sim and it was locked... they assured me they might have a backdoor to make me a developer. i find out first thing tomorrow morning before work. once im (hopefully oem unlocked ill share the dump wealth. put att sim in and only get HSPA not even H+ oh checking bootloader i used SKIPSOFT [TOOL] its helpful no credit to me for that tool.

i believe the quote above is from my post on dual-SIM support on the S20, and the quoted information above is from the Samsung Customer support center, so yes, it looks like it does support e-sim
Confirmed on my Euro S20 that it's there and working.

not surprised.. but if you have the factory unlocked S20, does that change anything?

Nope. That's what I have. When trying to use the camera to take a pic of the QR code for esim it says mobile plans. When selecting it it takes me to the wearables app for a watch esim
Also under IMEI it only has one which tells me there's no esim for the S20.

I also have an unlocked US S20 and I’m pissed that esim is not available. Their website shows otherwise. Any idea if this feature will be enabled via a future update? The box has only one IMEI.

Maybe it's international only? I may contact samsung and see what they say. Yeah it wasn't a big deal for me, but the price of the phone I would expect to get all I can

I have an AT&T S20 that I flashed to Unlocked. On the box, there's 2 SIMs listed, but obviously, no support in the software yet. So we know the US versions are CAPABLE. In theory.
So, Ive got a 980F Dual sim international Unlocked, I've got an option to disable second SIM and use an eSIM great!!

Interesting, I don't have that option in my phone.
Contacted Samsung's support and they said it will be added on future updates, maybe it was released already on some regions while not yet in others
quote from Samsung's customer support:
"Yes. this feature will be added later on with the updates. "

i would take what Samsung support tells you with a grain of salt. they'll say anything to get you off the line
100% agree on this.

Hey, I managed to make my eSim (G980F) working on the phone by factory resetting when a greek sim is inserted, apparently esim is not supported in my country (probably due to interests of the operators) so it was blocked by software.
note to the people who have multi-csc rom -> if you want to enable features that appear in other countries all you need is to factory reset while your phone have a sim from this country, after rebooting it will ask you if you want to change the country of the phone and it'll change the CSC. no root/ flashing required
note that inserting a sim from a overseas operator WITHOUT formatting will not make the same effect - and your CSC will still remain the original one.
in order to know what features are enabled in each csc of the multi CSC mode you can see the file: /optics/configs/carriers/<your CSC>/conf/cscfeature.xml
those files have readonly access (without root permission), but I assume that if you do have root you will be able to enable/disable features by editing the file
good luck
My unlocked US variant cannot be connected on firstnet. The att rep is telling me that even though my phone has band 14, that it's not "programed" to work like it would on att firmware. I've read online that some people, in the past (it's been years) have flashed their unlocked samsung with att firmware and that they have gotten everything to work, including volte and features like that. Can anyone elaborate if this is posible to make it work?
This is false. I use and purchased a Fold 3 on FirstNet.
I work IT for county government. It works just fine.

Hello there. I would love if someone can help me with a problem that i have. I bought a samsung s22 in the US and the phone is locked to use only on T-Mobile. Unfortunately as i don't live in the US i can't unlock the phone using the T mobile procedure. Do you know if there's a way to unlock the by using a different firmware or paid service (reliable).

Yes, an experienced professional 3rd party business can do it. It's extremely expensive though - around $200 US
As of today I'm carrier unlocked just by asking a t force member that I'll be in Europe and her for the next yr or so, I didn't expect her to whitelist so easily especially since I just upgraded to the s22 plus 2 months ago with 3 lines but she gave me no hassle about it I got lucky I guess and I do know how to speak to people and be honest. I went to support and chatted with her that's it 20 mins went by and permanently unlocked T-mobile carrier

based on the imei # it's from the united states and sprint\t-mobile carrier.
I hard reset the device. i was able to get a signal and use the device. but when i restarted the device it went back to showing "invalid sim" and no longer connected to mobile network.

Assuming that you don't meet T-Mobile's requirements in order for them to unlock it for you, you'll need to get a professional 3rd party company to do it
