I have a Straight Talk Sim.. with my Unlocked NOTE ..actually now I have 3 ST SIMS as the 1st 2 were thought maybe defective and ST sent me 2 replacements.
None of them get recognized as the message " No SIM Card" just pops up with all 3. Its not the APN settings, as I have tried all suggested and they are primarily for data and not the phone.
Any suggestions here? I have talked at length to both Samsung and ST and tehy each say its the other. Phone works fine with a TMOB SIM.
Thank you.

It seems to me its gotta be the sim cards...bcuz i use ST with my note with no problems...and now using it with my s3 without any issues at all...from wat u posted its the sim cards...especially if phone recognize the Tmobile sim card...
Just stick the sim cards in another phone, then you'll know for sure its the ST sims.
That is interesting because there a quite a few Note's on ST SIM cards..
Rarely if ever does a SIM card go bad unless it was chewed by a dog or hit by a lightening bolt.
There is something very simple yet wrong. Wrong SIM card? It is in backwards or upside down something like that.
Why is your phone 'unlocked'? The StraightTalk SIM card should already be for the AT&T phone so no need for unlocking.
You don't need to unlock but if your ESN was carrier locked that would explain it. Phone under contract but customer stops paying on 2 year contract and it gets the boot. Just one of many examples of how to get a carrier lock.
My AT&T carrier unlocked/rooted Note ran on Tmobile and is now on ST.
These are the only settings that work right for me. Although the phone should boot with the ST SIM even if these are wrong.

Yes I messed with the APN settings .. and yet those are for data . The phone as you have mentioned should boot automatically and yes many Galaxy NOtes are using Straight Talk. Now I have 3 different SIMS not working !? And yes they are in correctly etc.. if they weren't the Tmob SIM wouldnt work either.
I bought the phone New and it came unlocked as I prefer it that way rather than deal with ATT. I also travel abroad.
It's been a head scratcher.... Though I know the answer has to be out there.. I cant believe I have 3 bad SIMS in a row.
I am open to suggestions. Thank you.
ok good to know, please let me know how it goes for you, as I am also in the same boat and trying to use SL for my lovely note
did you flash custom roms?
you might want to take a look at your device informations, especially the IMEI, if its not your correct IMEI it means you've wrecked your /efs partition, search for EFS recovery to fix your imei and your sim card not recognized issue
Originally I did not..I inserted into the stock ROM. That didnt work , So then I flashed custom ROMS.. 3 different ones.. and they didnt work.
I dont understand what you mean by not the right IMEI ? Its a number.. the SIM doesnt screen IMEI's ? I bought it brand new about 6 weeks ago from Negri Electronics which specializes in unlocked phones.
They have a very good resellerating but one customer Lawrence reports something that would explain your case:
"Some of their unlocked phones (unlocked-originally branded) have the problem that they come with generic IMEI 004999010640000, this imei is generic and it is not unique. Phone won't get service in some countries(i.e UK) and it is a matter of time before this imei gets banned in US. Negri recognizes the problem but won't repair or exchange the phone, read their store policies before buying......................".
Well... then why would it work with T Mobile? I mean after all, its an ATT phone and designed to run on their networks? So it works with ATT and T MOB but not Straight Talk?
As well Thats not my IMEI, not to say perhaps its another generic one, I have no idea. You make some interesting points that I haven't heard before.

once again look at your device information - imei, and look at your imei on the box package or from under your device's battery, if they don't match then your EFS is ruined
flashing roms could cause these, but its pretty rare

in this case, i think you have 2 problems..
1. your device is sim carrier locked (which you could unlock manually)
2. your /EFS partition which hold your original IMEI is corrupted (you could restore/fix this too)
if you happen to have some files mentioning EFS on the root of /sdcard then you should backup those files.. you might need those to restore/fix your EFS partition

Thank you for your insights Twiq.
OK... The IMEI #s match. SO that's not the issue ( I think).
It's unlocked, so even though its an ATT phone, it works with Tmob SIM.
As for the EFS corruption possibility, well, it didnt work with all original Stock ROMS on Android 2.36. I rooted it thinking maybe ATT had something in there..but it still didnt work after 3 different ICS ROMs. I restored the original ROM yet still zero.
It works for Tmob. If the EFS was corrupted, then even a Tmob SIM wouldnt work.. right?

nope, then my earlier posts are irrelevant..
i think what you need here is flashing a different modem version which works with your current carrier/location.
what is your Baseband Version? it's on the about screen
you could try several modems listed Here, but flash only modems compatible with your current rom (GB/ICS)
there should be modems for international versions of Note, but i couldn't find one without downloading full rom.

Just cutting in here. . .
With a galaxy tab if you wanted to put in a sim from a phone T-mobile would block you and you would get a generic web page saying go buy a data plan for your tablet. The solution was to delete the efs folder and let the android system rebuild it. That rebuilt efs was the generic 0049etc. So a bad efs won't stop you on T-mobile's network.
As for esn, US GSM carriers don't block that. I asked a service rep why not, especially in the cas of stolen phones? He said those stolen phones are new customers.
Sorry there's no help in those paragraphs, but they eliminate some things. . .
I still haven't seen that you tested the ST sims in another phone. Its unlikely but a good possibility.

Baseband is i717UCLE2
I have flashed several of the ICS radios for T mobile... but that would effect the reception etc.. This didoes even recognize the SIM. From the moment the phone powers on it says "no SIM".
I talked to Negri, and they just unlock the phone just as you or I would with a code they buy in bulk.
So its no generic IMEI or any grey market stuff.
The radios it has are for ATT and this should work for an ATT StraightTalk SIM.. but it doesn't !?
Find someone with an AT&T unlocked phone. Your SIM should start up in their phone and their SIM should start your phone. If not then take it from there. I've had at least three radios that didn't work right with ST but all booted up fine.

Right.. this is beyond a radio issue . They dont boot. When I boot with a non activated TMOB SIM, it doesn't say " NO SIM". It boots, if I try to make a call, it will say "network unavailable".
With the ST SIMS, it immediately says "NO SIM" before it even accesses the network. Samsung said that since it reads the TMOB sim, it cant be the sim card reader.
I am grateful for all who have volunteered their expertise here, yet still have yet to find a solution though I know there is one out there. Thank you.
Dude. . . The ST sims are dead.

My S2 can't register on Network if it loses coverage. It can't re-register.
In this state it shows emergency calls only. 3G data works but not able to make/receive calls.
If I take out the sim and put it into my nokia phone I see that sim registers again.
Then I put it back to my S2 and it starts also working for my Galaxy S2.
Of course it works until it loses coverage. If I go into subway or somewhere else to lose coverage then I have to use my SIM once in my nokia to get it registered again.
My imei is OK. it's same with back of the phone so i don't think that my EFS folder is broken.
I'm on official stock kernel-rom. Not rooted.
I've tried 2.3.4 / 4.0.3 and latest leaked 4.1.2. Behavior is always the same.
It was working fine before. Problem happened after I took a travel and used Airplane Mode. When I landed it started making these problems.
Any Idea?
Modem issue maybe ? (assuming its not a physical problem with the antenna/associated circuitry). Test a bunch of modems out & see if it improves.

I actually did tried different ones. The one I'm using right now is Norway modem and it's showing the exact same behavior.
I don't think it's physical either. Lose of coverage triggers the issue.
Edit: I'm currently in Norway.
My IMEI is not broken but I just did the following GUIDE to make sure I don't have broken EFS folder:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264021
Nothing has changed. If my phone was blocked by this country then I'd have no registration at all.
I can make calls recieve SMS etc. I only lose it if coverage is gone. Then phone just stayes as emergency calls only
I also tried to select mobile network manual or automatically.
It's not working either. SIM is working fine with my Nokia and I tried different SIMs from different operators. No change.
The problem is definetely my Galaxy S2.
Any other ideas?
It's very unlikely the phone antenna has broken, those things are really really hard to break. There is no way it could break just through use, have you done anything to physically damage the phone? I'd restore your EFS, wipe your data, /format system, and try different ROMs and modems (making sure you get the right IMEI) before you conclude the phone is broken.
If you lose coverage, does it work again if you reset the phone (take the battery out) and then turn it back on?

No physical damage at all. It was in the airplane mode and then I deactivated the airplane mode. That's how it all started.
I didn't have the EFS backed up before the issue started but I followed some guides to repair EFS anyway. Nothing changed.
My IMEI(*#06#) is the same with the one on the back of the phone so no IMEI damage either.
If I lose coverage it won't register not even with reset but it does something strange at the beginning after reset.
It first shows R letter on the signal bar. It gives an error on notifications saying that I lose the data because data on roaming is not activated.
Then few minutes later it just shows Emergency calls only(no R letter on the signal bar)
Well you've done pretty much everything I can think of to do at the user end, without understanding the entire problem (pretty unlikely by just having it described to you) there isn't much more I can recommend, next step would be take it back to the shop and see what they say (i.e i'd take mine back to the o2 store). Maybe something weird and wonderful has gone wrong.
There is nothing wrong with your phone. There is program called Galaxysim Unlock in play store. This little app should solve your problem. I think there is a thread on xda but cann't find it right now... Good luck.
Thanks for the advice.
I used the app it showed the status "locked" which is strange because I've unlocked my phone before.
Anyway I clicked unlock and paid $2,5 for it.
It now shows unlocked but didn't change anything. It's still the same issue.
I checked the FAQ it says that even if I used another program arlier it should still work but it doesn't.
Any idea why?
There's one more thing I realized that my /efs folder is read-only.
When I tried to use following GUIDE it asked me to remove my /efs folder(after backup)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264021
When I tried to remove it I saw that it was Read-Only so I just deleted the content of it.
Does anyone know if this could be my problem?
I have the same problem. The only 'solution' I have found is to reflash my rom (I dont lose any data, its just a nuissance)

What rom did you re-flash? I've also tried few roms but they were all stock roms.
Maybe same one you used would help me too?
I use Jellybam 4.1.0 with Dorimanx 7.29.
Sometimes (not all the times though) when i lose signal (i.e. in a garage) it wont come back, no matter what I do. All I do then is boot into recovery and reflash the rom, I lose no settings. apps etc etc. It just is really annoying that there is no proper fix

Thanks for the info but I'll keep trying to find a solution.
Actually this all started when I traveled to a different country. I wonder what will happen if I go back to my home country.
Everything was working all fine. Hope it'll continue to do so
If you do find a solution, could you post it here? It would be mucg appreciated.
I already tried flashing multiple other modems but no help.
Here are the things I've tried and none of them worked so far:
I've tried different versions:
4.1.2 leaked and latest ones- XWLSD, XXLS8, XXLSJ
4.0.3 Few of them including one for Norway and my phone's original one: BVLPD (UK T-Mobile )
Old one 2.3.6
I've tried:
galaxysim unlock
GSII_repair
Galaxy_S Unlock
I've tried to recover from my " .nv_data.bak " to " nv_data.bin " file but my IMEI was never broken so didn't help.
I' did backup my EFS folder and tried to remove it so android will re-create it. Then replaced the nv_data files.
I've tried to unmount and mount the EFS folder and tried to make it RW not read-only.(couldn't do this)
I'm still thinking that it may be related to EFS folder being readonly but I'm not sure about that. That's the only thing left to try.
To be able to do that I needed to use adb in recovery mode. I did that with Philz Kernel but I encountered another problem that in recovery /sdcard wasn't mounted.
As I stated it all started with me travelling to Norway but it's not the first time I'm on roaming with this phone.
I'll write here when I get back to Turkey so we'll know if it's only happening here in Norway.
I hope this helps someone. If you ever find a solution please write here
I think I have an idea why this is happening and it looks like I solved it.
PROBLEM&SOLUTION: When I lose coverage I was trying to manually select operator many times but it never worked. I then used my sim card in my Nokia phone one time to register. When I put it back into my Galaxy S2 everything was working fine I'd just leave the Mobile Operator Selection as Automatic.
Now; when my phone is registered and working OK I manually selected Mobile Norway anyway.
Then I lost the coverage (went into basement lab we have) but this time it shows as following:

}
When I come back upstairs it was registered again. So just try to manually select your operator when you're registered.
Reason I think this is happening;
This started happening to me with MyCall operator. Which is actually an operator getting service from Mobile Norway (and when I ringed the Customer Service they said they're also getting service from Telenor in some places)
When I lost my coverage my phone was showing "emergency calls only" but for a short time it was also showing R letter on signal bar which means it's in roaming state. eventually R would disappear and even if I'm in MyCall/Mobile Norway coverage again, it wouldn't re-register.
I think my phone just knows that the MyCall sim also uses Telenor infrasturcture so it tries to REGISTER and stay locked in that state.
This was never happening to me when I was using a SIM card which has it's own structure which doesn't get service from another operator.
That's why I think it can be the reason.
Hope it helps others..
Just wanted to give an update that I came back to Turkey and everything went back to normal. My phone has "Select Network Autpmaticly" option.
It's working all normal. Even if I lose coverage and come back to coverage it has nor problem registering again.
So this was only happening in Norway to me.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy Nexus provided by Sprint ( NO PHYSICAL SIM CARD IN THIS MODEL) sprint doesnt use SIM cards in most there phones currently.
Problem: Phone displayed message "SIM card is PUK locked, Please enter 8 digit PUK Code to unlock. contact sprint for details". i browsed sprints forums and found a few posts of codes to attempt. Only so many codes may be entered before the Sim Shuts its self down for good. now the phone was displaying across the bottom at lock screen "No SIM card:sprint" (yes i confirmed and double checked there is no removable SIM card In the phone or under the battery). so now the phone service is limited. no mobile data is usable and phone calls often were dropped with "NO SIM CARD" error.
Rooted Status: phone was Rooted and custom rom JBsourcery was currently in use. prior to seaking sprint store for help. i went ahead and did a full restore using Nexus toolkit application to Flashback stock OS and lock boot Loader so warranty would still be eligible.(note this flash back did not recover sim error)
What i tried to fix the error: Flashed other custom roms, as well as a stock rom later on, Factory reset both done by Team Win Recovery Project, and factory reset done with stock Recovery after i restored phone to stock, Wiped Cache and Dalvik. No use off to the sprint store
Sprint Store Diagnosis: showing them the "No SIM Card error" gave them a good laugh. the store tried there version of full reset. No fix here. associate called Sprint Tech support. they were stumped as well and simply replaced. I got new galaxy nexus
How did this happen/ What caused it Yes! i have the answer for this believe it or not. i just couldnt find a fix. once the galaxy nexus is Rooted and so far custom roms i can confirm have this Feature. ROMs included are: JBsourcery for nexus 4.4 and 4.5, And the 4.2.1 stock rom available on Galaxynexusroot.com. i assume this feature is thrown in because the roms are universal for Sprint, verizon, and GSM phones. therefor if you have a Sim card you can edit your sim card lock.
In my case, for my sprint Nexus under Settings> Security= this list has an added toggle "set up Sim card lock" of course my curios mind checked into this. little did i know that as soon as you trigger that bad boy. something in the phone changes Permanently .
as i stated i did get a new phone in exchange for this error, and of course i rooted again and flashed the 4.2.1 rom and this setting is back again. as so long i dont touch it. there will be no issue. however, i think this should be looked into and possibly removed from certain roms specific to "SPRINT" lol as we dont need it. also maybe look into a way to recover from this scary phone breaker. i dont beleive i am the only one who did this. there will be more so long as there are curious minds out there who Root and custom rom flash. thanks guys

When I first got the phone both slots worked. I've rooted the phone and installed some things and may have broke something. SIM2 works but the other slot is broken. I'm on tmobile too.
Feiteng GT-A7100 "Mobile Network Not Available"
Oh, gosh, I'm really stuck. Tried two SIM cards (redpocket/att and spot/t) and either works. Sim cards work with
dumber phones. Really like this phone (ie cool android hardware) other than it won't work as a phone.
I also have suspicion about the IMEI. Bought from everbuying.com. please email vjp2 panix com because I dialup and don't
have broadband. But I will try to get back to forum if someone replies. The Phone sees the SIM card (ie, knows name, and some addresses).
I don't know about all those extra setting with initials (some it has, others not).
But it says the SIM card is disconnected. Took it outside, closer to cel towers. Is it possible the sim cards are too cheap.
I only want talk. I've seen doc this phone is 4 bands, others say 2 bands

i have same problem
1) I noticed one of my sim slots (sim 1) was not detecting the sim card. Error message was something like "no sim card" which is different than "no service". In examining the sim slot, one of the gold pins in the slot was not making contact with the sim card. I took a small safety pin and bent the pin slightly up.
** NOTE ** be careful bending this pin up. If you use too much force, you can snap the pin off and then you would be totally screwed.
I then reinserted the sim card and the phone detected it since the pins were now making contact with the sim card.
2) Another thing I noticed is sometimes I get "no service" even though other times I would get 4 bars of signal strength at the same location. I went to settings and disabled the sim card. Waited about 10 seconds and then re-enabled my sim card. It then seemed to reconnect with the phone network.
My carrier is TMobile.

This thread is outdated and not related to the new problem with EFS coruption. Solutions proposed here wont help you if you lost your network after downgrading a ROM from MF6 to earlier.
Ok it's not the first thread about this but no one seems to have an answer. I'm trying again.
I flashed a custom ROM on a friend's phone i9300. After the flash the phone keep saying "Not registered on network". I tried everything I know.
I changed modem
I changed ROM (3X) (with full wipe)
I returned to stock
I installed GetRil (changed the baseband)
I installed Galaxsim (phone already unlock)
when I try to set the APN I get a message "registered on network" but when I do a phone call I got "Not registered on network"
Is there anyone who knows any way to solve this problem?

Get a new sim from your carrier. Either your sim tray is broken or your sim card is. Sim card is cheap/free to replace so try that first.

sounds like (both of you) your EFS folder is corrupt - the only way i've read of repairing it is to have a back up. service center for repair is the only option AFAIK.
The IMEISV means nothing, don't even worry about it. Know what you're talking about before you blurt out crap.

Usual suspects .
Sim you tried another .
Sim carrier unusual to be damaged .
IMEI wrong .
No phone number details standard with many roms .
Network details not entered or incorrect or wrong CSC .

First I restored the phone with the nandroid backup I made just before flashing. (still not register on network)
Then I restored the phone to stock Samsung with Odin (still not register on network)
The IMEI is still there(most thread I read with this problem people lost their IMEI)
The phone can connect to the network because it can retreive the time from the network.
If I make a network operator search it finds China Unicom(This is my sim card) and when I choose it it says "register on the network" but as soon as I try to call, I get the "not register on network" again.
I thought the IMEI might be block as it might be a stolen phone but I made a search on two IMEI database and it says CLEAR.
I flashed 3 Asian modems( I used to have a S3 I know the XXELJ2 was working with my sim card) and same result.
Have you tried flashing a different modem to your device and reporting the problem to your provider.
May sound obvious but the provider's logs may clearly show what is wrong and they can report it back to you.

anyway, tried this metod too now, and still the same ~
Hey guys, had a very similar problem to kremata (everything in EFS folder seemingly ok (IMEI and S/N were fine)), and for me it got fixed by applying Azira's Patch ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601 ).
However this solution only works by rooting and if you try to return it to stock it will reverse to being a 500$ PDA sadly.
In any case, the phone is now fully functional (calling/SMS/mobile data).

Hi, i have been trying to find an answer to this after hours of searching i've come up short and confused.
I recently switched from tmobile to verizon, and i paid off my tmobile s9+ and had it sim unlocked. When i put my verizon sim in it, nothing really happens. either it tells me that it can't register on the network or to insert a tmobile sim card.
I have tried using reset and factory reset. I have also tried the method of holding the volume bixby and power and doing a factory reset, then putting the sim in, rebooting, etc. That doesn't work either.
I see several people trying to go from verizon to tmobile, but i haven't been able to find anyone going from tmobile to verizon, and what method i need to do to get this to work, if its possible at all. Any help would be so much appreciated!

That still may not help, remember Verizon is still CDMA and the T Mobile branded phone does not have CDMA bands activated and they may not even be on the phone, I don't know. Granted band 13 should work fine, being LTE, but could the sim be looking for a CDMA radio and that is why it is not working?

The hardware is identical for all US Galaxy S9 phones. Any bands that may be missing will be resolved by flashing firmware. OP could also just stay with U1 if they want unlocked, and all bands would still be there.

As per Samsung chat support, I've asked if the dual sim version (international) will work with Verizon. I've also asked the rep if I can switch carriers with a locked phone. They said that essentially, all phones were manufactured with the CDMA and GSM band compatibility, it just needs to be unlocked and the US versions will work on any carrier in the US and the international version (dual sim) needs to be unlocked and it will work with any carrier in any country.
That said, it seems that you're just having an unlocking issue - which is good and bad. I hope you figure this out. Try using Odin 3.13, get the CORRECT firmware for U1 or U(VZW) to flash your phone

Only one small correction to what they told you: The 965F (international), will not have CDMA capabilities. That might not be a problem on some US carriers. But if you can't get VoLTE working on VZW with 965F, then you're dead in the water, since you don't have 1x CDMA calling to fall back on. It becomes a data-only device. I don't have experience with it, but I wouldn't be surprised if the VoLTE doesn't work on US carriers. For GDM/WCDMA carriers, you'd probably be just fine with 965F. Even if VoLTE doesn't work, you'd still be able to call.
Hope this helps.

Step 1
Can you find out the exact model number?
For T-Mobile, it will be one of these :
SM-G965UZKATMB (Midnight Black)
SM-G965UZBATMB (Coral Blue)
SM-G965UZPATMB (Lilac Purple)
The U is the important part, as a previous poster explained that the F models do not have CDMA support (forget what that actually means, just know its necessary for verizon)
Step 2
Next, make sure that the carrier version is correct.
Example: SM-G965UZKATMB
BST Boost
VZW Verizon
ATT ATT
USC US Cellular
ACG C Spire
TMK MetroPCS
VMU Virgin Mobile
TFN Tracfone
XAS Sprint
TMB T-Mobile
XAA Unlocked US
SPR Sprint
CCT Xfinity Mobile
Essentially, you need the firmware that starts with SM-G965U and ends with VZW
Step 3
I'm not 100% sure on how to flash from carrier to carrier but there will be a list of directions. You may need to do some research there to see if it will void samsung warranty (aka 'trip knox') or anything like that, if that matters to you. I think only a modified version of Odin will be able to do this.
Download Odin v3.13.1
Extract the firmware file you just downloaded. You should get 5 files:
AP (System & Recovery)
BL (Bootloader)
CP (Modem / Radio)
CSC_OXM (OXM CSC file, will wipe your phone)
HOME_CSC_OXM (OXM CSC file, will NOT wipe your phone)
Add each file to it's respective field in Odin v3.13.1. Use CSC_OXM if you want to do a clean flash and HOME_CSC OXM if you want to keep your apps and data.
Reboot your phone in Download / Odin mode with the following button combo: POWER + VOLUME DOWN + BIXBY
Once in download mode, connect your phone to the PC, preferably using the original USB cable you got with your phone. Odin should detect your device and a blue box will show up with the COM port number.
Do NOT tick any extra boxes. The only options to be ticked are F.Reset Time and Auto-Reboot.
Click the start button, wait for Odin to say 'PASS'. Once the flash is complete, your phone will reboot.

To download firmwares, google "SAMMOBILE website: /firmwares/galaxy-s9-plus/SM-G965U"
Looks like the latest verizon firmware is here: SAMMOBILE website /firmwares/galaxy-s9-plus/SM-G965U/VZW/download/G965USQS2ARF4/223287

Hey thanks a bunch, I’ll give this a shot when I get home tonight. It very well may be that the rom I got wasn’t the right one. Other threads I’ve read seemed to indicate that everything was universal now and by having the SIM card in the phone while flashing, it would download the carrier specific stuff automatically. That part at least doesn’t appear to be the case since the phone wouldn’t accept it. But I’ll download some of the carrier specifics and see what happens. Thanks again!
Did you get it to work after all?
Sorry that i forgot to update! I did get it working, but it required a bit more discussion and help on a reddit discussion someone started. I noticed that someone asked this exact question and i pointed him to this thread where he was able to get it working, then helped me with which roms he used, and i got it working as well!

Awesome gigatigga - thanks for getting back. I'm on the verge of trying this. I owe some money on my S9 plus on t-mobile but before i paid it off wanted to make sure all is good.
How are the speeds? Everything working ok? Thanks again! :good::good:
Edit: I was all set to do this and during the signup - I found out that my imei wouldn't work in Verizon's system so they used one from another phone. He advised that if I wanted to pay for insurance, if I make a claim it could be an issue because the imei numbers won't match up. Seemed like a big red flag to me. So I didn't go through with it. Wonder how others are handling this?
I just switched from the ATT firmware to ARF4 on T-Mobile, but it says there is no update available, while the newest T-Mobile update is ARF7. Does anyone know how to get updates OTA?

Can someone help me?
I cannot network unlock a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy 9 plus which has never been active on any plan. When I insert my Verizon SIM card a system notification says "Invalid SIM card. Network Locked SIM card inserted".
I want to bring this phone to Verizon where I have an active plan. I don't have a plan with Tmobile and my friend gifted me this phone. I flashed it to Samsung stock firmware and bought an unlock code from DoctorSim. The code applied successfully however the phone doesn't unlock completely and continues to prompt for the unlock code when I insert the Verizon Sim card. When I called Tmobile they said only a phone active for 40 days on their network can be unlocked using the phone app and that my friend would have to call them to unlock the phone.
