So, I went to South Korea a while back. I bought the Samsung Galaxy S 2 LTE (SHV-E110S). I've been trying to unlock it through a few imei-unlock websites. None of them succeeded, so after a long time I went for it and rooted my device after I saw another dude here on this forum did it with success!
The simlock went away, wohoo! However, a few problems, still.
1. SMS is possible, but I need to input my phone nr.
-I found a "hack" for this.. Find an old phone and type in your nr somewhere. I don't have any old phones, had a cleanup last year.
2. SMS is locked to no more than 80 characters. After 80 characters it's suddenly a MMS. That's stupid..
3. I'm still stuck with Apps that came with the phone, how do I remove these apps? They are all Korean, so no need for those.
So, I've been searching around to look for a way to flash my device, but without any luck. I'm hoping that there is some smart brains out there that can answer my questions.
Bump?

I have the same phone and I live in Tunisia, when I installed go sms, the limit of 80 characters is gone, I think it work for the other sms apps.
I also removed the korean apps after rooting it with the Doomlord kit and a root uninstaller app.
Now I'm searching a custom rom for it

You can update OTA if you set your 'market' to Korea with a market enabler app; the message concerning the SKT USIM will no longer show and the updates will be properly checked.

Does Market Enabler require root? I tried without root and it didn't work. And I don't want to try to root this phone unless I find a stock ODIN flashable ROM.
BTW, do you think OTA updates would solve the SMS problem? For me, the built-in messaging app can't send messages longer than 80 characters. All the third party apps including Go SMS Pro and Handcent SMS can't even send the message even if smaller than 80 characters.
I am stuck. Please advise. I am on 4.0.3 currently.

You are correct...my bad, I was just assuming that most people would have their phones rooted in order to get more out of it. The market enabler apps do require a rooted phone to function properly.
The SMS limit of 80 characters is imposed by SKT/T-World on our phone. A friend of mine has another phone branded Oleh (I believe also from SKT) and he has a limit of 90 characters when SMS'ing. To be honest, I think any updates provided by SKT 'over the air' or thru KIES would not change the limit in SMS messages. I suppose we'll have to tweak the rom if we want to circumvent this limitation. I too have not been able to get any of the third party sms apps to send a message of any length.
Note that I have prepped a pre-rooted copy of the latest UG06 rom, which has all the operator's bloatware removed. Note that the rom image has not lost its 'stock' signature; flashing with odin will not trigger the custom rom counter. If you're interested, have a look at the following link... <zzz>/forum/showthread.php?t=2827&page=2 (sorry, new user, can't embed links in my posts, replace <zzz> with w w w. s a m m o b i l e. c o m)
(The original/unmodifed stock rom images can be downloaded as well, let me know if you need a copy; I still have the FD18, UD25 and UG06 files ('captured' from KIES).

By the way, rom version UG06 is ICS 4.0.4

Thanks for the reply.
I have found the stock rom over at some chinese forums already. Thanks.
And if rooting and using Market Enabler wouldn't help solve the SMS problem, I won't go for all that hassle.
Let's hope someone develops a custom rom without the SMS problem. If you come across such a rom, please share it.

Hi herecomesmaggi, I already received an SMS with the permission to unlock the device.
I had read in Xiaomi forum that this is fixed by installing the chinesse dev rom, but that rom is only for MTK devices, is there a chinesse dev rom for kate/special edition?
Regards

First of all lemme clear this, chinese dev rom and global dev rom are same with only diffrence of languages(chinese rom has only english and chinese) and google apps.
I faced the same problem while unlocking my bootloader. it unlocked after 8 days of getting message. You wanna try other methods so be it, but i know for sure it takes a week after message is sent.
My advice - just wait it out . if any partition or so gets messed up, you will end up having problems in custom roms like others.. fp , camera, imei problems...

Wait atleast 2 weeks then try to unlock bootloader officially, same problem was with me when I was trying to unlock my "kenzo" device, but when after 2 weeks I tried it to unlock by official method it's successfully unlocked.
When I unlocked it my phone was on MIUI Global Stable 8.1.10.
If you can't wait and want to unlock it urgently then follow the unofficial method, link provided below.

Dont do unofficial Method.. I had same exact message..wait out a week
There is an easy way to know if your device can be unlocked or not
If your device details are shown correctly, INCLUDES MIUI version, under your Avatar on MIUI forum it means the device is detected properly and the bootloader will be successfully unlocked
If there is no details of your device under your Avatar, the unlocking proccess will fail
Have a look here it might assist you.....

Could not find the original method i used, but have just found it again, I managed to officially unlock after suffering several 50% failures using method 2 in the following link, I managed it with global stable installed as supplied with the phone.
http://en.miui.com/thread-434406-1-1.html
I used this method on my newly bought Kate device: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/method-to-flash-twrp-recovery-unlock-t3473294
Works great! Rooted and installed xposed with locked bootloader. Now i can wait patiently for my official unlock code.
Sent from my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 using XDA Labs
this one works for me;
Go to settings>developer options>mi unlock status> and press "add account and device"
after this you can try to unlock bootloader again.

We cant fix it. Its old issue. Call xiaomi and tell them ur problem.
had the same issue, the problem is redmi note 3 users cannot call redmi note 7 users who have jio sim.
.sounds like a wierd bug right? if u change the sim to a different phone, you can call them. tried and tested it.
the solution which I used to flash "volte fix" . once you flash this, you can call them.
hit me up, if u were not able to solve it

Hey!
Sorry for a very late reply. My account was locked out.
Problem : RN3 users not able to call RN7 users. But other way around is possible.
Solution : Flash volte fix using TWRP after OS is installed.
Issues : Fingerprint "may" not work.
Below are the attached files.
-------
On a similar note the best OS which supports both volte and fingerprint is : purenexus_kenzo-7.1.2-20170819-UNOFFICIAL . but this OS has issues related to sensors. please check the comments of that thread.
Let me know if there are any other issues. Happy to help!

I have Orange Fox Recovery installed.
I literally have very minor knowledge about custom rom and flashing.
