Does it affect unlock-ness to install new kernel or ROM? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

My i777 is unlocked and used in another carrier network other than AT&T. Now I want to install new kernel and ROM.
Does it affect the unlock-ness of the phone?

I did search the forum and found no related threads based on the their TITLES. However, I admit that I didn't dig into the CONTENT of each thread. There are many of them.

what?! Nonsense! Answers! Naow!
To answer the OP. No. Being SIM unlocked will have no effect on what you can flash. However I would caution you that if you have to ask this question, and you aren't willing to dig for the info, it may be a good idea to hold off on flashing anything until you're more informed about the phone and all the processes involved in modifying said phone.

Agreed
I unlocked my AT&T SIM, and after many kernels and ROMs, an unlocked check still shows it has retained unlocked status.

I'm not trying to be rude, but you seriously shouldn't be flashing anything to your device until you're able to take the 3 minutes it takes to read the OP of the thread dude. It very clearly states that you need to flash gapps along with the from itself.

I saw the gapps thing but was unsure what it was , I thought it was a bunch of apps that task found useful. On my phone its labeled Google play. So I didn't understand but now I do and its installed and I love this from. Thanks for the help.

Hi - been searching the forum but cannot find a difintive answer.
Are the S3 from carriers unlocked, in particular Orange?
If not, is there any way of unlocking like we were able to do with S2?

They're usually not unlocked although I've had the odd one which was, the best thing to do is to use voodoo for galaxy s3 and it will simply unlock your device. Job done.

We are not being irrational. Flap asked that all his works be closed and links pulled. He has left XDA, as has his projects. I'm sure that with some Googl-idge you can find his works.

[Q] How can I root my I777 on Ver.4.0.4?

Hey guys. I have updated my I777 to Ver.4.0.4 with Samsung Kies and my phone is completely "pure", which means unrooted by default and not any 3rd party mods installed. I wonder how to root my phone since the guides and toolkits in the forum is for Ver.2.X which seems a bit outdated now. I am a noob on rooting. Please help me, thank you very much!

The only way to root 4.0.4 without changing base is with the ExynosAbuse application which you can download free from developer chainfire in the I9100 forum. This information is not in the guide that mitensheth_11 linked to earlier.

I don't think that's completely fair. This is a phone found only in the American market, so the majority of information about this found will only be found in English. And if you can't read English very well, then I can imagine it would be difficult and very time consuming to find even simple answers.

You could just go to one of Creepyncrawly's threads and flash through Odin and the use TA afterwards. Go to the development thread and look there for 4.0.4 stock with root and follow the detailed instructions he's given.
