Ok I have searched so this thread is just for confirmation.
My sister will be getting me a s3 i9300 on her contract with orange, I plan to use it on my o2 sim.
Am I right I just need to root the phone, then use GalaxSim Unlock once to perm unlock it?
upgrading from galaxy ace so whilst its not the latest its one hell of an upgrade still
Yeah, but remember backup efs

It should be unlocked by default.

As a matter of fact, all my contracted phones came unlocked (Vodafone Motorola (Some sort of flip-phone, or whatever they're called), T-Mobile: M7600, Omnia 7, HTC 7 Pro, GS II, GNexus, GSIII)...
And so did this of friends and relatives. We live in Europe, not America. We still have those freedoms

In the UK, only phones4u, cpw etc give you unbranded and unlocked phones on contract. This is because they bulk buy. The same handset can be given out regardless of carrier choice. They are never left short of o2 handsets with 3643 orange handsets they can't sell.
If you go direct from the carrier you will get a branded and sim locked handset

Will verizon s4 work on at&t. Will i be able to get 4g? Thanks
4G as in H+? Then yes.
No, they have different radios. GSM (AT&T) vs CDMA (Verizon)
JaeKay, the Verizon S4 had both radios. I have personally used an AT&T SIM and made calls and gotten H+. So to the OP, YES YOU CAN. You just need to add the APN info after you put in the new SIM card.

Need to root for APN change/add ? or possible to add new APN without rooting?
I was rooted but it should not be a requirement. Just need a non Verizon SIM in the phone.

A co worker of mine pulled a new S4 out of box and put in his at&t SIM sure enough it worked. so non rooted works too.

I have both a TMO sim and and ATT sim, and I got EDGE with TMO. No H/H+ right now on TMO because very few areas are on 1900. Our version of the S4 does not have the ability to use H/H+ on the AWS frequencies, just LTE.
Does anyone know how to GSM unlock the Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3 for use with domestic SIM cards? It's got to be possible; people have done it for the HTC One and S4. I tried dialing *#0011# and pressing menu > back, but that simply does absolutely nothing.

Oh. Yes, I know this. I thought he said the BestBuy SIM, which is why I was confused. Yes, it is only for LTE while in the USA, but it connects to GSM outside the USA. The phone is most definitely fully GSM capable.

Nope. They'll only unlock it for international use. I need to get it unlocked for use on AT&T and T-Mobile, which they will not do.

It's beyond unlock. Sprint's Note 3 radio is patched to ignore T-mobile and AT&T towers in US. SIM unlock will not help in that matter.
If you have it rooted and custom bootloader you might want to try and FLASH Verizon's note 3 modem.bin file to see if it helps (probably not)
i unlocked it for domestic.

Hi , I did everything on tutorial, red X on antenna, no signal, no service,phone has clean esn , any solution.? thanks
I got a Sprint Note 3 from craigslist. Everything works. Got a great deal on it.
Now i want it to work on the Att network which i know is GSM and Sprint is mainly a CDMA carrier.
Well, i read the thread on the UICC unlock and it looks like that phone can work on GSM carriers after all.
I am not a Sprint customer so i can't get it "Internationaly Unlocked"
What way can i go about it? CAn i only flash to other CDMA carriers?
What route can i go. Will there ever be a GSM unlock?
It can always be flashed to boost. Pretty sure there's some threads floating around about it.

Could you provide us some "flash to boost" link/tutorial?
Here is a start
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA
start reading this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593305 all your questions have been discussed there
The short answer is "no, without being a Sprint customer and having Sprint unlock international GSM, you will not be able to use the GSM portion of this phone"
not sure why you bought the phone in the first place, sounds like this is Sprint bad ESN phone - an expensive paperweight unless it was cheap and you want to use it as wifi only device. You might be able to flash it to some prepaid cdma carrier like boost mobile, But that is not trivial. and boost is also subsidiary of sprint, so if the phone is reported lost or stolen on sprint, not sure if it will be ok for boost, probably ok

They have, but as already said, we need Sprint to internationally unlock it. I'm in a situation where I cannot do that because I bought the sprint phone in the US and I live in another country

This is probably the wrong forum, Q&A is likely where it belongs. But why would you want to pay Tmobile to insure a phone this old? There is other insurance options available.
