I mean, my phone is locked on Orange Romania and I want to unlock it, I don't want to clone my IMEI or w/e you gave me...
Unfortunately not like that.
You will need to contact our carrier or pay to have it done.
it's possible if your rooted
How?

I'm new to Motorola. With the Galaxy series I'd root and download an app that Sim unlocked the phone. Is there anything similar for my Droid RAZR? Or is it unlocked now that it's rooted and running a Rom?
Thanks for any help!
I've flashed a Brazilian firmware on it and it works fine with Rogers so it must be sim unlocked? Isn't it?
Any help? Does rooting and flashing Roms and flashing a different firmware from a different company/country mean it's unlocked to do I need to pay $ to an online company for an unlock code?

On Razr rooting will only gives you super user access to system files, will not unlock it to use sim cards from another carriers. You'll need a sim code to unlock it. Ask your carrier for it. Thanks!

Hi! I might buy the Rogers XT910 in Canada in a few months... and I'm actually kind of confused... some posts say it can be rooted, some others no...
I'm also confused with "loked bootloader" thingie... I have a Samsung captivate now.. I can flash any rom whenever i want... can ithis be done to this phone? ISC?
And the most important thing I need to know... I couldn't find any Sim Unlock method.. is any avalible that you know?
Thanxs!

1. Theresn't any unlock method as Galaxy_S unlock app, or anything like this. You'll need to buy your code. gsmliberty.com is a good place to get it.
2. You can root your device easily.
3. You cannot flash any rom, this is a locked bootloader effect. (by the way, you have not too much option of custom roms in razr as unlockes bootloaders device have, like the samsungs...
Wish you luck on razr. Cheers!

Some SIM unlock methods do not survive the upgrade to JB. Not knowing the method, it is impossible to answer.
You can always use Galaxsim unlock (search XDA for free) to unlock the SIM once upgraded. It needs root though, but its free.

I would recommend upgrading to the very latest version for your region, yes. You need to get off ICS ASAP really.
If you're making a big leap to say, 4.1.2 (recommended) then you may be best preparing to do a factory reset. This of course wipes the internal SD card too. So just backup what you can before flashing a ROM. Even though you may not need to reset, it is best practice due to settings incompatabilities.
Then, IF you have become sim locked, you can quickly root using cf-auto root, run GalaxSim unlock and unroot again (using super use app).

Hello Guys,
I am relatively new to the android world, and I decided to give this a go. I was able to root my device, and I understand the bootloader is not unlocked. Nothing from my research indicated wether this meant I was also still carrier locked or not. Simply put, my question is: if I am rooted, am I carrier unlocked, even though my bootloader is locked? If not, what do I need to do to perform a carrier unlock?
Thank you for the help!

I have tried the link listed and it does not seem to work I am missing something here, I would like to carrier unlock my device as I am changing service and would love to be able to use my phone, how should I do this I am on a rooted me7 version s4
Unfortunately, this method does not work for me, as the phone does not respond to the code when it is inserted onto the dialpad.
Hello Guys!
I've try to cut it short.I would like to debrand (sim unlock) my SGS3, I used a tool named GalaxSim Unlocker, but it sad
"Either your nv_data md5 file is inexistent/wron or Samsung md5 function has changed. Stopping here to prevent eventual errors."
What is it? How can I fix this? or there is other method to network unlock my phone ?
HELP ME
THANK YOU GUYS BEFORE
Best way at present is to purchase an unlocking code from your network. The previously posted free methods don't work anymore due to changes by Samsung to the efs folder.

What prices am I looking at for sim unlock?
TY
Is it possible to downgrade the rom and the modem for the one click method ?
Cost for a code varies, contact your network and a few repair ships to compare.
Yes, you could downgrade to older baseband -but only if you have a backup of your pre-MG4 efs folder and know what you're doing. Chances of bricking the phone are fair and you'll be stuck on that baseband, any upgrade will again lock the network.
That's why I said a code is currently the best option.
OK

No, it isn't. What you proposed isn't possible and wouldn't unlock the phone.
