[Q] I777 unlocked but no SIM works? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

*#7465625# code displays everything as off, yet no SIM card works in my phone. Anything I can do to make it work? This is frustrating as hell!
I'm currently on UCLE5 Semi v17 btw.

Have u tried just unlocking it again?
Doesn't cost anything and may work the second time around? I unlocked it once and it stayed unlocked.

I've tried multiple times, literally about 8-9 times today and no SIM card will work besides my AT&T one.

I hear that for a different sim card to work they have to be active. Are you calling the carriers and telling them you want service with them?

It doesnt have to be active. it can be a deactivated sim and it will still show the carrier branding

Are you unlocking the phone while on ICS ROM? In that case, it won't work. Revert to Gingerbread ROM and unlock while on Gingerbread.

I shall try that. Thanks.
And yes, the SIM cards that I've been trying are already activated on their associated carriers.

Well, I went to GB and used the Helroz unlock app and it still didn't work. I don't know why this is happening, but it's absolutely frustrating. I'm trying to get this phone working on Straight Talk but no method I've tried works.

I'm assuming you've tried the methods shown on the straight talk website regarding AT&T phones on their network... maybe I'm giving too much credit.

I've tried every method short of purchasing their AT&T based SIM. Simply put, you don't have to be a prick. I'm asking for assistance, not some douchebag's quip.

That unlock app worked for me when I used it . And I was on gingerbread when I did. And u said u went back to stock gingerbread and it still didn't work for u? Then I dunno very strange. And hey next time if u feel like someone said something u don't like, its totally understandable, just shoot them a pm about it. Saves thread wars

Network Sim Unlock

How easy it to unlock the network of the Xperia S? I am buying one locked on Orange but need to use my 3 sim in it.
Cheers

Whatever the minimun spend is, probably 100stg.
3 stock it though?

Hi guys,
My friend can send (Austria) me this phone but is sim locked.
Is there good way unlock the phone?
Docomo unlocks at point of purchase for a fee.
Check provider to see if they will also.
I'm buying from a friend, so it will be locked to O2, what's the easiest/cheapest way to have it unlocked?
Thanks.
O2 send the unlock code free of charge on request, it took 17 days for mine to arrive but no questions asked and it worked.
Ok, cool. Do you just call them up? Or pop in one of their shops?

Andy O2 models of the phone have a bootloader that's locked and it's not unlockable yet. You testing just using the phone or you considering to hack it?
At the end of it all, I'll be reviewing it. I did want to put ICS on it though. About 15 minutes ago I've seen the bootloader of this can't be unlocked though
Nothing that can be done?
**EDIT** Sorry, silly me, you've said not unlockable yet Thanks.

One thing you can do though is to use the flash tool to flash the latest update..73 has had positive results in improving battery
I think it is already .73
**EDIT** It's not, downloading the update now.

How can we do this?
I've been reading all over trying to figure it out!
Also, I'm guessing T-Mobile would try to charge for Unlocking the phone?

Believe so. When I boot up it has the T-Mobile logo.
I'm having real issues with lag and Xperia Activity Home force closing and the phone completely locking up, so I'm hoping I can stick .73 on it.

[Q] Galaxy SII i777 Custom ROM, lose unlock?

Hi guys
I'm planning to buy a SII from AT&T's (i777) as I searched and is the SII version I like the most. I'm in Colombia, southamerica and I'll buy a factory unlocked cellphone but I want to know if there's a problem with flashing a ROM like Cyanogenmod, can the phone get locked to AT&T's SiM cards or something like that??
Thanks in advance

If it's unlocked it'll stay unlocked until locked again :good: regardless of roms you flash. In other words, you'll be all set. Buy the phone, flash cyanogenmod and call it a day! Welcome to the forums

That's why I want to be sure, I never bought any operator locked phone and less from other country operator, I don't know how does it work with this phone since is a variation from AT&T, it's not an international version sim locked. You know if this phone can come unlocked from factory indeed or if is unlocked by any code instead??, for me is very important to be 100% sure since I'm out of US, want the phone and customization options as I don't like touch wiz that much
Thanks for your replies
Man, is not hard to unlock this phone.
You can unlock it by code BUT no one uses codes.
We do use some app from android store.
Check Galaxsim. There are others.
Go for it!

[GUIDE] free sim unlock for i717!!

firstly you need to flash the tmobile based ics modem ( flash in cwm or twrp) found here:
http://multiupload.biz/fdpnprq0ov6o/Official TMo ICS RADIO_NOTE_MultiUpload.biz.zip.html
then after flashing boot into your rom and follow these instructions exactly (note: after pressing perso shaf256 off I had to press back twice instead of once, but then I was back on the network page and could choose [4] NW LOCK NV DATA INITIALLIZ):

Can't wait to try this on my Bell Note! I'm going to Florida soon and have been procrastinating on getting the phone unlocked...
Score one for procastination!
I was surprised when it actually worked... I got screwed out of an unlock code by an online company (only 8 bucks but still) so when I saw the t989 modem and thread about free unlock for their phone (using the same modem you can flash on ours) I had to try it! I flashed a rogers radio afterward and the unlock stayed also.
Thanks for posting! I'll definitely be trying this out when my Note arrives on Saturday.
Worked perfectly!
I am impressed! I worked like a charm in the very first try! I used a AT&T Galaxy Note I717 with stock ROM (I717UCLF6, kernel 3.0.8). The best part is that later I flashed another ROM (Padawan) and it remained unlocked. Did a couple of phone calls and it is working great! Thank you so much! :victory:
you're quite welcome guys! Figured I had to share the wealth on this one and hopefully save some users some cash and/or getting scammed by too good to be true unlock code site "deals".
Got my note unlocked for $3 but I will pass this method on.
Thanks.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
The Note has been out for a while. Is there any reason not to simply call ATT (or whatever carrier you have) and ask them for the unlock code? Don't get me wrong. If this method is safe and if it works, then thank you for sharing.
can anyone verify this does work on at&t? and do we just reflash an at&t modem after its done?
thanks

it will work on any variant, has to be an ics rom though, just flash your normal radio back immediately afterwards.

Just curious, where did you get yours unlocked for $3. I'll use it as a last resort. I plan on web chatting with ATT first and try my luck that way. I don't have cell service with them, but I do have home phone service.

Of course. What was I thinking? However, are the other carriers much different? Can't you just request the unlock code from them?

Sorry, Crixley. I think your post is appreciated, and though I wasn't terribly excited at first, I did thank you. I forgot to push the Thanks button but that's taken care of now. I wasn't sold at first that this unlock would work but it appears to be valid for several users. And, being an ATT user for many years, I can get my unlock with a simple phone call. However, I see your post as very valuable for many others. So, THANKS!

[Q] SIM Unlock Code for Rooted Amaze 4G

Hello Out There!
My Amaze 4G is rooted and bootloader unlocked. Running CM 10.1 and now I have a SIM card unlock code the phone will not accept, I'm assuming because it's rooted. I'd like to take it off T-Mo and move to AT&T occasionally for coverage reasons in places I frequent like the VA Hospital in Louisville, KY. I'm trying to reflash a stock ROM and then try the unlock code again. I have a good, activated AT&T SIM card and the unlock code direct from T-Mo.
Any thoughts? Think it'll help by flashing a stock ROM?
Thanks, folks!

Yeah stock roms are going to work better than AOSP roms when using unlock codes.
Just download arhd or fireRom or something stock and then try the code again. It should work.

Maybe repost or retitle this for ATT ?? ... seems to not fit in VZW forum when it doesn't actually work with VZW.
if this doesn't work, please delete this post. OP could have led me down wrong path
There has been allot of people lately with good intentions
I'm sure ,but flash anything and post how to post with zero testing. The darklord verizon thread is a perfect example.I've been comparing different things on multiple verizon notes on Verizon and other carriers side by side to see what works and don't and there has been so many similar post. I'm no developer and don't want to be but hate to see people mislead others in the wrong direction and possibly ruin their only phone I don't care about most of mine since I have allot of them.anyways sorry for jacking the thread but I would change op to state only tested on what ever carrier before saying stable as ****
sms, gps, etc issues on Verizon at least can be resolved by flashing the latest baseband via Odin.
