Hi all,
I've picked up my unlock code using the super-useful app listed here:
showthread.php?t=761045
However, my phone won't accept the code with presented with a new SIM card.
I'm able to 'relock' the phone using the *7465625*638*# command, so I'm pretty sure the unlock code is correct.
I've tried flashing to the stock rom listed here, but I still get an incorrect PIN error when I try to unlock:
showthread.php?t=740077
So, what ROM have people used to successfully unlock their Tmobile Vibrant?
Thanks in advance!
Hello, I have a Mexico Telcel Galaxy Ace 5830L phone that I need to unlock. I purchased a code from cellunlockers.net to later find out that my phone is hardlocked (shows padlock with "dismiss" key under it). What can I do to fix this? I am looking to use it with simple mobile or t-mobile here in the US
Perhaps try boot the phone into firmware mode and wipe cache / factory reset?
Tutorials can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
I've tried this but still the same problem. Im trying to flash the latest firmware for this phone and see what happens, will look into rooting after the firmware update.
can someone help me out with what firmware to use?
here is my current device firmware:
PDA: S5830LUBKA2 [R5]
PHONE : S5830LUMKA1
CSC : S5830LTCEKA1

It seems like the bml5 is a method to get the unlock code, I already have the code what I don't have is the option to insert it to the phone when I enter a invalid sim
Update: I updated the firmware to GB 2.3 with Samsung KIES, I tried again the unlock instruction codes that cellunlockers.net (with original SIM) and this time it gave me a MMI problem, but still no screen to enter unlock code.
I entered a menu with *#*#4636#*#* now trying to see if I can get something working
I have been experimenting with different ROM's. I boot up the phone with SImple Mobile SIM and I get the window to Unlock the phone, I enter the code and it says Carrier unlock successful, but I still cannot call out..
I checked mcc options also set them to 31026(T-mobile) and entered network unlock code again successfully but still did not work. With some ROMS it does not accept the code, can someone give me some advice?

for using any operator simcard :
1. you need unlock jetstream from htcdev.com
2. then root device, for this google it (e.g. how to root jetstream)
3. use any simcard you want !
wait u will see WIFI not working sad!!!
4. for fixing WIFI problem install wifix application (just work on rooted devices)
now u can use simcard and wifi both
I think the peyman_021 meant "How do I perform a SIM unlock?" and not "How do I unlock my bootloader?". In order to perform a SIM unlock (henceforth carrier unlock) on your Jetstream you will need to determine your IMEI and then use a carrier unlocking site.
Find out your IMEI:
On any device with a dialer you can call *#06#. This preferable because it is consistent across all operating systems (i.e. Android, iOS, Blackberry OS, Windows Mobile). Alternatively, you can navigate menus -- usually starting with Settings->About. This number (it does not feature letters) is essentially your cellular radio serial number.
Use Carrier Unlocking Site
There are many sites out there so find something or someone to guide you towards the best ones. As with most things price is often the determining factor.
You will need an online payment mechanism such as a credit card. They can cost as little as $10 USD and as much as $30 USD -- in my experience. They will ask you to enter your IMEI and sometimes your device make/model -- though the latter is redundant.
Once you submit your IMEI and payment then you will need to wait for an unlock code. It can takes minutes, hours and maybe even days for the site to reply -- typically via email. The unlock code is short and entirely numeric.
In order to enter the unlock screen you will have to trigger the enter lock screen dialog. On the Jetstream this is done by inserting a SIM card that is not from the original carrier. Most devices require you to power off to insert a different SIM, but the Jetstream can hot swap. Enter the unlock code and you are done.
Note that on the Jetstream you need to have a lock screen enabled to trigger the enter unlock code dialog. Perplexingly, it is the actual lock screen that triggers the enter unlock code dialog.
You should note that carrier unlocking is permanent, but since it is an improvement that is a good thing.

I don't know what peyman_021 means here, but a clue is that he mentions needing a rooted device. This probably means changes to the /system partition.
Users of the kernel made by DooMLoRD require an updated wifi module. That is the closest thing I can think of to a "wifi fix application".
If you can post a screen capture of your problem then we may have more information to help you with. Download a screen capture app or simply take a picture of your screen and post it here.
You also might want to consider 1) unlocking your bootloader then 2) installing a custom recovery then 3) installing the custom kernel by DooMLoRD. I suspect this will give you a better performing kernel and working wifi.
Just found that my new ME302KL (LTE) just bought via E-Bay has an AT&T network lock - it requests a network unlock code when I insert a SIM. As I don't have an AT&T account or SIM, I cannot get it unlocked from there. Found a web site that wants 50$ for providing an unlock code, which would then take two weeks for processing.
I've unlocked the boot loader with the ASUS utility available on the ASUS web page, and have rooted it successfully with vROOT (the framaroot approach described in another thread did not work for me).
So, is there another way to get the network unlocked? Either by getting a code for the IMEI, or via USB?
which website? maybe ill give it a try because i have the same issue here i would like to unlock it also, i really dont mind waiting 2 weeks or so

yeah, it uses the device unlock app.no it says i'm not eligible for unlock.the seller who sold it to me even requested tmo and was denied.tried rooting and messing with system files now it says can't connect to remote server even after reflashing stock using LGUP.Tried using the f600l rom port, no you can't get the sim unlock prompt to pop up.tried blisspop and resurrection roms, they do prompt for a sim code but the codes do not work it says 255 retries remaining<<<something not right there.I do have the right unlock codes, just get them from an unlocking site or ebay.Speaking of unlocking sites, they want 60usd+ to unlock the tmo variant WTF!! Also if you try to get into the sim unlock menu using stock rom (dial 2945#*901#) it just says device permanently locked for everything.Now if there was a way to get a stock rom or port from say at&t variant which has the sim unlock prompt it just might work.
The closest i've got to unlocking this thing i the actual network unlock screen that comes after you flash the stock firmwire through LGUP. it said 0/30 attempts or something for a brief second or two the first boot after reflashing and then it restarts before you can even do anything into os never to be seen again unless you reflash it again but again you will only see it for a second and its gone again.I wonder if there is a way to keep that screen on so you can attempt to unlock it via code.
Also I'm pretty sure the device unlock app is just there to check prerequisites of your t mo account.In reality it does unlock the same way as other phones.probably just applies unlock code from tmo database once it checks you've met the criteria for unlock.
t-mo has really locked these down .
So has anyone been able to successfully unlock this phone without the tmo app? or have a cheaper service to unlock this thing ? Else im stuck with a paperweight.
