No worries, you are unlocked.
In case you get locked, you got some wonderfull apps here at xda to solve it.

If you are simlocked after the JB update, just downgrade to ICS, use galaxysimunlock found on Play Store, then upgrade to JB again.

I may be wrong, but I thought that it doesn't work on JB? I always read that you had to downgrade for the unlock to work. If I am wrong, apologies for false information!

There is a chance, I rooted mine and flashed the first leak of JB (LSJ) and my phone didn't lock (I was unlocked before like your phone). According to poster above you, you can use galaxysim unlock from Play Store on JB leak. So it shouldn't be an issue to fix if it does become locked!

You bought it unbranded and carrier unlocked?
If so, you should be fine.

Well then that confirms that it is an unbranded/non-carrier locked phone. Just go ahead and try out JB, you shouldn't get carrier locked, only an extremely slim chance you will, and even then, it can be unlocked again.

What are you waiting for then? Flash JB
Whether its locked or not now is irrelevant.
Also the network sim lock was a bug in the LEAKED rom and is not a factor in the public/final version and even if it was its simple to unlock via a app and we have plenty of topics on unlocking so dont ask for help on this as its already available via search button.

Hi,
I have a friend who bought his SGS2 from Phones4U (UK).
He has updated it via ODIN to an unofficial firmware version but didn't bother checking what factory version of firmware was originally on the phone.
And now, yep, you guessed it he wants to revert back to factory so that Kies recognises his phone and will update through the "official route".
Does anybody know what version of firmware from the samfirmware site is the correct one for phones4u users here in the UK?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Luke.
As this is my first post I can't link an image from my KIES.
Not sure if this is what you are really after but here goes.
PDA:KIA4/PHONE:KI1/CSC:KH2 (XEU)
Thanks for that info. Looks like he may need to download one of the XEU firmware versions...
Will get him to give it a go and report back.
Thanks again!

Yep but it doesn't state which firmware represents Phones4U which is the problem as my mate didn't bother taking note of the factory firmware version that originally came with his device. Judging by the previous posters details on his phone (purchased from P4U) he needs an XEU (Europe) version so he's going to give one of the three European versions on there a go later.

Probably not a bad move. Once he flashes a stock ROM, he can update through Kies.
It could only be a problem if (big unlikely if) something goes wrong with the phone and he has to send it in for service, and then if the service people check the records (which is also not likely, if there's an official version of firmware and "custom counts" = 0).

Don't you need to be correct in the ROM selection for this to work though? I.e. if you put the wrong stock ROM on, Kies will recognise your device but will tell you that it does not support the version on your device (something along those lines).

It worked fine on mine, but i got my device within the first week of release...
Checkfus and download the firmware for whatever you want .

Interested if it works as it might come in handy.
So do give us an update on how it went and how you did it.
Bit of a noob with the S2.
Hi Guys,
I've got a S2 on Tmobile UK and I wish to unlock it to enable me to use other network sims.
Im not entirely sure what to do with all these rom versions and firmware stuff etc ...
I've managed to root my phone via CWM.zip and using the SU-Busybox.zip ... now im not too sure what to do next to sim unlock. I've tried all the sim unlock programs from the market but they dont seem to work.
I dont want to install all these flashy things and wish to keep everything stock if possible.
Currently im using ICS 4.04

Galaxy S Unlock - free - dont work
Galaxy sim unlock - this one havent tried needs to pay .... ideally want it done free
This is the one I used when I first got my device and it worked. (Free)
_https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helroz.galaxysunlock&hl=en
This one is newer and more compatible but will cost small fee of about £1.60 to unlock device.

Do these work on the ICS I read they only work for gingerbread ?
would sim unlocking have any effect updating via kies again when Jelly bean gets released ?
Thank you
I was able to get the phone unlocked using the following app.
See the following Link and download the .apk file and install it on your device. But make sure you have rooted phone.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34187077&postcount=685
After you install it then you run it and there is a small gray bar at the bottom you just press that phone unlocked and you restart the device. Everything works fine. It worked for me I hope it works for you as well. Even if u have tried the same app before i suggest you still try the one on that link.

The second one works on GB/ICS/JB. I can confirm it works on JB as I recently used it after installing latest leaked JB sammy rom as that was sim locked.

Unlocking has got nothing to do with updates, firmware does.
If kies sees you're rooted, might play hardball with your device.
Why people keep updating via kies? What if power goes off?
And who waits for branded updates to roll out????????????
I'm kidding, it's your right to do so.

The upgrade to official Motorola JB via flashboot seems to have done the trick. I know of two other people who also fixed this problem by being on JB, one of whom had to do it via flashboot (not OTA) in order to fix it.
I'm now running CM10.1 RC2 + JBX 0.4.6 BSE and it seems to be fine.

Hi, I'm trying to flash my samsung with the new android 4.3 but it keeps
Go back to the original firmware no matter what firmware I flash it with
I've tried 4.0.1 official firmware (which was originally on it)
And the new 4.3
And that happened after I took it to samsung services to solve a problem happened in it
And they flashed it with the EGY firmware
Does anyone know why it keeps going back to that firmware?
And by the way I could root it normally and used it for about 2 weeks
Thank you very much for your help
Sales code : EGY
Bootloader version: I9300XXEMD3
Baseband version: I9300XXEMA5
PDA version : I9300XXEMD3
CSC version : I9300JVEMC1
thank you in advance

Flashing the official firmware I9300XXELL5_I9300OJVELL2_KSA android 4.3
And this supposed to be the official one for my phone
flashing it by Odin3 v3.09
If it reverts to original then either flashed file is faulty user is not following the instructions or phone is damaged .

Mmmm, flashed file is faulty no way because I've tried a couple of files
The user is not following instructions no I'm following it
The phone is damaged how it could be?? Like what is the damage?? Because I got the phone recently from samsung services after i had a problem with the imei and the phone works great
Maybe the Rom is not flashing properly. Phone should be "USB Debugging" enabled. Then please make sure you are selecting the md5 file in PDA section of Odin and also make sure that the phone is connected in Download mode (Power+Home+Vol Down - and then press Vol UP from the screen). It will show a blue color in COM section.

As far as I checked they are both 4.1.2 firmwares so there will be no change. Visit sammobile for the latest i9300 firmware for your country.

About odin, yes you can flash the firmware and your phone will work normally. Rooted does not matter for odin.
But if you are rooted then OTA update will not happen because Samsung will detect that you modified (rooted) the software.

Yes, your phone is ok. Maybe there was some confusion before about why firmware was not flashing. But it was same firmware so nothing wrong with your phone.

So, I bought my dad a Dual SIM Galaxy A7 (2016).
Model number in settings shows as SM-A710FD but download mode shows SM-A710F.
So, obviously the stock ROM/Firmware for SM-A710F will flash fine through Odin. My question here is, will the Dual SIM function still work if I flash an A710F ROM?
Need to know for sure because I need the Dual SIM feature and I don't want to lose it by flashing the ROM for the A710F.
All replies will be appreciated.

I too have exactly the same issue. And I too really get confused.
Some users have given the feedback. They flashed the SM - A710F Stock MM firmware ( most probably Russian) and they have no issue at all. I`ve asked them about the dual Sim functionality of this device. They said that they use only one sim and usually they can`t give any feedback. I also use dual sim with a micro sd card. That`s why I`ve not tried this one yet.
This is the only variant (A710FD), which has 2 sim card slots with a dedicated memory card slot. The others has 2 slots and one is Hybrid slot (as far as I know).
I`ve searched and googled about Stock MM firmware of A710FD, but not found yet.
Sammobile website is showing only one Stock firmware, which is 5.1.1.
Just go through this thread :

The firmware will flash perfectly fine since both variants share the same A710F bootloader but nobody knows if Dual SIM works or not.
