I have i9300, locked to Telenor Serbia
It was already updated to 4.3, so it was EFS2 on it
I rooted, installed Philz touch recovery, and Paranoid Android 4.4.2 (android 4.4)
there still is no way to unlock efs 2 ? I need the phone working asap, and I would purchase code, but I need to ask:
will the purchased code work on this rom, or do I need to revert to stock, in order to apply purchased code ?
thanks in advance
Unlock code should work on any rom, but you could flash a stock firmware to be sure.

Hi all!
Well, my problem is that I can't do the sim unlock and I think it is because the phone has 4.1.2 and a rooted kernel.( the phone isnot mine,owns to one friend)
I've been trying with the 2 most popular apps : Galaxy s2 sim unlock by chainfire and odia, and galaxy s unlock (this I think no root needed).
I'm thinkin that I can't unlock it because the kernel is not the official one. The phone is from Orange (Spain) and yesterday i was trying to flash the original firmware downloaded from Sammobile and it crash, so I had to flash a kernel (ApoloJb) to make it run again.
I am crazy to get the unlock sim... because If I get the sim unlock my friend will give me the S2
Thanks and sorry about my english :/

I Have to unlock my phone to use it in other country, but i see methods only in Stock, i want to know if it is possible in Cm12 and how!
Buy an unlock code, it will work in aosp rom.
I received an unlock code from T-Mobile. I tried the unlock code and tried it on an 5.1.1 AOSP ROM and it said the unlock was unsuccessful. Do I need to be on stock firmware to use the unlock code? If so, can someone give me a link to a TWRP flashable stock rom? Will a custom stock based rom like Maverick 5.1.1 work?
My Canadian version I527M is locked to Rogers. I purchased an unlock code from them but it doesn't work. My phone is rooted and running a custom ROM (Resurrection Remix) but the IMEI has not changed. The number reported by Android is the same as the IMEI on the inside of the phone.
Any ideas why the code from my own carrier won't work? Does rooting or RR ROM affect unlocking?
Thanks.
Hello,
I wanna Sim-unlock my phone (galaxy s5) but it's running on cyanogenmod. I know it's not possible to unlock sim with a custom rom but is it possible to unlock the phone if I flash a Stock Rom? And does the rom have to be with original branding?
Greets,
Kenny
EDIT:
No, it's not possible to unlock your phone on a custom firmware. Yes, you have to flash the original firmware with branding by the phone's original carrier then unlock it for all networks. This will work. You can use a custom firmware again after unlocking the phone.
