Hello friends
I have just sim-unlocked my galaxy s3 from O2 UK .
I tried searching a lot but couldn't find a thread which would guide me to unlock the bootloader of my S3 .
Now when i have unlocked from O2 carrier , can i unlock the bootloader ?
Waiting for your replies.
Thankyou.
As far as I know O2 hasn't locked the bootloader for the S3, only AT&T did that across the pond.

thanks for replying, but is there any procedure to know wether unlocking the bootloader is allowed or not ?
It shouldn't be locked in the first place, try to root if that works it's not locked. (as usual rooting will void your warranty.)

sorry to ask , but is it necessary to root the phone before unlocking the bootloader ?
There is no lock on the boot loader. It is unlocked by default. Only Verizon over here in the states locked the boot loader by default. Not AT&T, Delsus
Meaning don't worry about the boot loader. How hard is it to understand that?

My mistake I wasn't far off though
But yeah you do not need to unlock the bootloader it was unlocked when it rolled off the production line and will be forever unlocked.

Th "4g" international version is the i9305.
You can go to settings > about phone.
There's also a massive black screen when you first turn on the phone with the model number on it

E. Failed to verify whole-file signature
E. Signature verification failed.
Please help me .
Have you used the /!\ button to report this thread yet? You need it moved to i9305 q&a.
If you're using stock recovery you will get this error. Means you missed a step because you haven't flashed custom recovery.
In custom recovery is an option to toggle off signature verification.
If you haven't reported your thread yet, please to so now

Half the adventure of modding your device is learning and understanding how. If you don't understand something than you probably shouldn't do it. Read over and over again and if it helps use Google to get a better understanding.

I have flashed with international version, full factory reset, wipe cash, but the problem is still here, the phone need to restart every hour or twoo hours.
Return it to Vodafone or Service Centre .

I have flashed my phone, but not root, is my phone in warranty or not any more?
And is that hardware of software problem?

That'll not be the Indian firmware na? So, no more official updates, no warranty
1. For official updates u r still waiting, if u eager than change to LLC and switch back to Indian firmware when launched.
2. For your warranty issue before taking any issue to ASC flash back to Indian Firmware. It takes a couple of mins.

As far as I know that samsung don't give any official update to over that firmware which is flashed by odin, that doesn't matter that if you flash a official firmware of any country or of any other country.

U can change ur CSC to get OTA.
But if you are reluctant to all than best is u wait for Official Update for India and you very well Samsung always delay updates for India.
Even in next few days for India you will get firmware LLA or LLB while for Spain its already LLC.
Now its your option you wait for OTA for an older firmware or update to latest.
