i bought an austrian version of the sgs3 branded by the provider 3" .
the phone was given to me unlocked by an unlock code and had 4.0.4 on it.
then i rooted the phone and did a backup.
via ota i got a message that a new update is available, but it was not able to install it (i think because of the root), although i used the newest cf-root-files CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar.
i wanted to have jelly bean on it and installed the cm 10 but unfortunately the unlock was gone.
please can anyone tell me how to restore it, because i really would like to use cm10 and an unlocked phone.

Maybe the developer doesn't care since you've slagged off his rom.
I used to be like you until I read Feras statement about "roms he creates as for his use and he shares them for people to try".

Right, so first: Have you unlocked your bootloader?
Second: Is your phone sim-unlocked? (In other words, are you able to use a sim card from another carrier in your phone?)
Third: If you haven't gotten your x10 sim-unlocked you're going to have to relock your bootloader.
Here is the tool to relock your bootloader.
Fourth: Assuming the above is all true, you need to sim-unlock your phone. You can either contact your cell carrier (if you bought the phone from them), or use one of the paid services online. I don't know which service can do it because I went with the cell carrier route
Hope I helped! If I did, don't forget to hit the 'thanks' button

Depends on your bootloader status. If u unlocked bl after SIM-unlock u may have broke radio. Revert back to stock and relock bl then u can start again

Hi, guys! I went on some sticked threads but couldn't find anything concrete... I live in Brazil and I've bought my Xperia P here, and when I try to upgrade it to 6.1.1.B.1.54, it says that I already have the latest software / firmware version, but my version is 6.1.B.0.544... Is there any schedule for the upgrade? Even Sony can't inform me, it's ridiculous... I can't play GTA III and Back Stab because of firmware bugs on them, I've even asked for a refund for both...
Anyway, if there is no schedule, is it worth to unlock the bootloader / root the phone to have the latest firmware?

Did you use ota update in phone or pc companion?try using pcc and check whether it work or not
Sent from my Ultimate Sola
It doesnt make a difference if you install one of the FTFs here ;p Just make a backup of current version with CWM so that if the official update comes to Brazil, you can go back to this backup and update for official one And you can try out custom roms with a locked bootloader too Just not Custom Kernels.. And loads of custom roms are available to flash, and easily possible to revert back to Stock, no risk of bricking, so Completely safe
Let me know if you want more info
Cheers & Merry Christmas
why not flash. 54 ftf with flashtool?

Got it, thanks! Then, just a noob question now: Do I just flash the FTF? Do I need to root the phone? And if it's just flashing, am I going to lose my files / installed apps / configurations...?
You wil lose what's not on sdcard if you flash stockrom, and for custom some roms need unlocked bootloader some don't

Forget about the carrier, flash any ROM (remember the 4.0.4 remark).
Galaxysim unlock is the tool to unluck your phone if locked again and it's here at xda for free, it's paid at play store.

Some SIM unlock methods do not survive the upgrade to JB. Not knowing the method, it is impossible to answer.
You can always use Galaxsim unlock (search XDA for free) to unlock the SIM once upgraded. It needs root though, but its free.

I would recommend upgrading to the very latest version for your region, yes. You need to get off ICS ASAP really.
If you're making a big leap to say, 4.1.2 (recommended) then you may be best preparing to do a factory reset. This of course wipes the internal SD card too. So just backup what you can before flashing a ROM. Even though you may not need to reset, it is best practice due to settings incompatabilities.
Then, IF you have become sim locked, you can quickly root using cf-auto root, run GalaxSim unlock and unroot again (using super use app).
