[Q] Network Lock Status Code Not working. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone.
I have the Canadian SGH-I747M model S3 from Bell Canada.
I try'd to use the Network Lock status code to see about SIM locks and *#7465625# doesn't work. Appearently it works for teh AT&T model I747 though so what does this mean? Is my phone completed unlocked and locks were never even setup at the factory to begin with or is there something else going on?
I try'd asking in the AT&T section Q&A but my question fell on def ears no one knows/cares.
Thanks.

Code works fine on international model.
Appears you device model just doesn't support the code.

No problem.
Sorry for a lowly User answering your question.
As I said, obviously the code doesn't work for your device model. Your model is not the international I9300, so your posting on the wrong forum anyway....
Maybe change your title to "Devs need only reply"
Edit: you didn't mention you new the code works for the international version, that's why I included the screenshot of what to expect.

You miss understand me.
I ment a dev or someone with more in dept knowledge as to why the code is not working such as the possibility of being with out any locks or something other then "oh well it just doesnt work with yours" not helpful . I also mentioned that the AT&T I747 model works with the code and it is the exact same phone hardware wise, only difference is slight changes in firmware by the carriers.
I have already said I asked in that sections Q&A and got no where, and so I am here looking for someone more experianced, I came here because the more experianced devs and knowledgeable people work on the international model.
Theres no need to be rude.

On the contrary mate, I deemed your response to be rude :banghead: We're all here to help each other
As I said, you never mentioned that you knew the code worked on our model ! Otherwise why I would post the screenshot?
Learn to be more specific in your posts buddy, then you'll maybe get the answer you need, and without wasting users time.
Sorry for not being off any help
Peace

My GS2 from AT&T

Ok guys I read the newbies posts and the Q.A's and Im alittle confused on where to start. I would like to root my GS2. but dont know with which software? Also what are the advantages and disavantages of rooting your phone? and is it possible to devert back to orginal software 2.3.6 after rooting? Is it possible to BRICK your phone? I came from apple and can tell you everything about jailbreaking but dont have a clue about rooting or where to start? Is there ICS for my phone and if so is it stable? Also is it possible to get paid apps for free like the Iphone?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What Sub Forum Do I Go To??

I just Got this phone yesterday. Had a Mytouch 4g before and always messed with it.
But this phone has so many Sub-forums that i dont know where i can go or where i shouldn't.
I have a T-mobile GS3. Can i use roms or mods from the other carrier sub forums or even the S III I9300 sub forums?
What is the difference from Original Android Development sub forums and Just Android Development
Thanks in advance. I know this is a noob question. so if mods want to delete or move, please direct me to the correct place if this is the wrong place to ask this.
Stay here, don't go to the international sgs iii forum.
If you want to flash a ROM pick one from the T-Mobile section (i think that's who you said was your provider).
Original development is stuff built from scratch/source. Regular development is stuff based on stock Rom.
Hope this helps

Yea that clears everything up. 1 more question.
Why can't I use the other providers section. I'm guessing the each carrier has something that won't work on the others?

All the carriers models are different if not something major like cdma vs. gsm, something software related to fit that specific carrier. Make sense?

[Q] Is there a way to know i9100 hw version without turning on the phone?

I'm a noob and if I violated some rule please let me know so I won't make the same mistake again.
I'm trying to buy a Galaxy S2 I9100 with a hardware version of 1.4 or lower for my wife.
I want to get the phone under "free extended warranty" in my plan on Orange(partner) Israel and they told me they don't insure REV 1.5 or any of the I9100G or T models.
I know I can find out the version by dialing *#2222# and in the best cases, sellers with non-sealed boxes have allowed me to put a battery in for a sec and check out the version but alas they were all 1.5. However there were sellers that allowed me just to look at the box and try to fish some info.Perhaps I have found what I was looking for and I simply don't know.
So my question is: Is there any way to know whether a speciffic SGS2 has a HW 1.4REV without opening the box?
maybe the info is listed in one of those websites that give info about a certain IMEI number?
edit: I'm sorry, I mixed up this forum with the GALAXY S2 Q&A and I don't know how to delete this thread
Wrong forum. This is for the i9300.

[Q] needed help to unlocked i717

hi i bought locked in calgary galaxy note i717 (already have cynogenmod version 10.0.0-RC0-quincyatt & paranoid android version 2.21)
how can i find carrier of my i717
I don't understand your question. Are you asking what carrier the phone is locked to? Model number under battery will tell you that? Are you asking how to unlock phone for any carrier? I believe with Canadian Notes it is better to use a third party unlocking service (like from ebay) to get the phone unlocked if it already isn't. But on the other hand I think some Canadian Notes come unlocked from factory. If the phone is unlocked, maybe you just need to enter the APN for your carrier.
For future reference, questions should be posted in the questions and answers section.
OP yes please explain your question and this has been moved to the Q&A. Thank You
Go to www.samfirmware.com and you can find the stock carrier rom. You can flash it with Odin software and a pc and the charging cable.
When you flash it your phone won't be rooted anymore.
I thought my answer was sufficient but OK.

Where is your answer Sir? I only see the post I quoted. Maybe the Tapatalk app doesn't show all replies? I don't normally jump in on a good answer, and I don't much like it when others do it to me, either.
It got deleted because I advised op to stab himself in the thigh with a fork to make sure he was awake because there are so many copies of this thread lying around within the first few pages. No search utility even required.

Ok, that's a good answer. But I was pushing for a solution. I like the cockroach joke in the other unlocking thread three post from this one.

Well Sir, your jokes or comments are not helping....there is a right way and wrong way to provide assistance and your way is not right.
If it bothers you so much that individuals are asking and looking for assistance, then stay out of the Q&A threads. Now I do not mind showing members assistance but bottom line they have to figure it out them self's. Teach them, not bash them.
Again if I see you bashing instead of providing, Stand By Sir. Thank You

Dear All seniors
Thanks for your valuable suggestions
the phone which i bought was locked to roger. i flash last night with stock rom
now i have 2 question
a how to carrier unlock galaxy note i717r
b which rom should i flash my galaxy note so i work with mobilicity
thanks
You have to get an unlock code. That is something you purchase from ebay.
The Rogers rom is ok, but you have to flash a modem. Any modem compatable with t-mobile will work for you.
Dear just unlocked my phone
only one problem is left which is to used with mobilicity
so can u send me the link to get flash with a modem so my phone can run with mobilicity

Sorry to tell you this, but based on your experience level and understanding of the parameters of your device, I'm not sure too many people can help you until you help yourself a bit.
First, read! Sounds simple and it is. Start at the top of this forum and read about ROMs, flashing, seeking help, etc. Once you're ready go to the questions section of the forum and frame a specific question with all the pertinent background and relevant information.
Believe me, people here want to help, but only help... not do all the research, analysis, and preparation for you.
Start again and you'll be surprised how easy it is.

I must say... it's very refreshing to see such sage advice from someone with such a low post count.
Op, read and adhere to this advice and like stated it'll be much easier on everyone.
Zancro, you stay cool dude, keep up the good positive attitude, and always keep learning. then I might not have to post as much
Or buy a code from ebay. Then you only have to type a few numbers -- no flashing experience needed.

plz guys I can do it I believe in myself.. just give me the best way to do it..

You might be best to search online and find a website that sells unlock codes for your phone.
Buy the code, insert unknown SIM card in phone and enter the unlock code when prompted.
