Sorry, but changing imei is illegal in most countries so this tool won't provide a way to do it

Unfortunately this device is not supported yet (as almost all qualcomm devices).

You can use the version available in the OP. There's a paypal donate button it you found it useful.

I've never heard of something like that before. What do you mean by "a little while" ? could you use Efs Pro to make a backup of your efs folder when unlocked and when not working anymore, and send me both ?

I'd say it's rom/radio related. The unlock procedure doesn't touch anything related to wifi or data connection behaviour.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] im_on_fire:
A little while as in anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. I took the SIM out and cleaned it, and I haven't had the problem since. But if it starts again I will do that.

sim chip

Thank you for your help- I'm going crazier- been working on for days!

1. I run GSU on (stock sim) (telcel sim,but it never works) and all is unlocked-reboot-all are unlocked but I have no internet or phone-

2. run EFS and reboot all is ok phone works internet - calls etc. Galaxy Sim unlock says- Network lock= partially unlocked

SP Lock= partially unlocked

everything else unlocked

3. Same using Galaxy S. unlock-- same using Telcel sim-

4. I don't know if my phone is still unlocked- I know it is rooted- don't have unlock code- did have unlocked when using stock rom but don't know after C10.1

5. Telcel does not asked for unlock code any longer-

thanks again! Ed

Works with Japanese Galaxy S2 (Docomo's SC02C).

Helroz's app unlocks too but I have found with a few phones that it reverts to a locked-state after a while.

This app appears to be permanent. When using it after using Helroz's app the app claims that the "Nv Country/Network" code is "44010#" and that the phone "Network Lock" is only "partially unlocked". After clicking through the "Nv Country/Network code" becomes "unbranded" and the "Network Lock" "Unlocked".

Haven't had any reversions to unlocked yet, so far so good :D.

Been running Vanilla JB on my S2, but since I'm really satisfied with the Stock ROM on my SGS3, thought I'd give the latest samsung effort on the S2 a try. Never thought it will turn into a nightmare with my device getting sim-locked!

Thanks a lot for sharing your work with us. You made my day!!

It worked flawlessly on my Galaxy S2. I had rooted a ****ty rom which had locked my s2 again, with this I was able to unlock it.

Used the free version first and then bought the paid version only to support the dev. Good job! :good:

Hey,

3 months ago I bought a China Unicom Galaxy S3. I rooted it and flashed CyanogenMod's rom, I could make calls and use my wifi. No problems at all.

Today I decided to install UltimaRom, but after installing it I couldnt make calls so I downloaded GalaxSim Unlock. I unlocked it and and rebooted but I'm still unable to make calls.

This what galaxsim unlock says:

Device Model: GT-I9300

IMEI: undefined (blinking)

Sim Lock status unlocked

What do I do know?

I bought the phone from MediaMarkt so I doubt it's a fake!

Galaxy S2 Unlocked but reporting inconsistent NV data

Hi there,

First of all I'd like to say a big thank you, this little piece of marvelous software saved one of my two Galaxy S2s!

However, I have a question: I have a Galaxy S2 GT-I9100running on the official Samsung 4.1.2 JB ROM. Everything works fine, the phone is completely unlocked, I can make phonecalls and use 3G normally, my IMEI is showing correctly, but GalaxSim Unlock reports "inconsistent NV data".

On my other Galaxy S2, which was unlocked using the software, GalaxSim Unlock reports that everything is OK (all green).

I was just wondering, what are the consistency checks that it performs? Is it a specific file within the EFS folder? I have kept a copy of my original nv_data files, but not the whole EFS folder. Is there any way to fix this issue?

Thanks again! :good:

Android version: 4.1.2

Baseband: XXLS8

Build: XWLSD

I have a Galaxy S2X (SGH-I727R) locked with Rogers. I rooted the phone using Superuser, installed BusyBox, but I could not make it unlocked using this app. Apparently, it does not support this version, right? Can you please help me out? :confused:

Thank you so freaking much!!

Btw, just to be sure, if I delete the app, will the unlock still be there?

As long as the folder isn't deleted, it should be alright?

Thank youuuu!!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] NIK3SH:
It won't affect.

It has done its work so you can remove the app but do not delete its backup made on SDCard. Its having your original efs partition.

Cant use the app...

Hey guys,

So I was updating my i9100 manually using ODIN. I Successfully upgraded to ICS and then tried JB (XWLSD) stock 4.1.2. My problem is that after upgrading to 4.1.2 Jellybean, the phone is no longer rooted.

I tried to use Siyah's method to root the phone, but it fails ( probably because i need to be networked unlocked) and to use this app I need to be rooted.

So i need to be rooted to unlock and unlocked to root.... is there another way to root/ or unlock without needing to unlock/root.

Thanks in advance!!!! :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] NIK3SH:
Flashing firmware using pc odin will obviously remove root access.

To unlock your network and run this app, your device must be rooted.

You can either use latest siyah kernel or simply try flashing Root_SuperSU.0.98-Busybox.1.20.2-signed.zip file from recovery mode.

Google it and you will get complete details of procedure.

Best luck.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] gabo_e30:
To use siyah kernel u must be network unlocked (right?) Im getting an error in Odin when using it and I think that's why...

Does ur BL need to be unlocked to flash in fast boot?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] NIK3SH:
Well, I don't think so flashing kernel can rely on network lock status (EFS Partition).

For safe rooting I recommend you to use this stock recovery flashing method which will also give you busybox, mandatory for running this galaxsimunlock tool. You can check its complete description from here.

Once device get rooted you can use this galaxsimunlock and unlock your network and after that onwards you can flash siyah, if you think you are facing error due to network lock status.

BTW at which state and which error you are getting in ODIN while flashing siyah ?

I got a warning at the beginning that support for this model was not tested, and that if it worked, to advise the developer so that it could be added to the list.

So that's what I'm doing. :) It worked well on a GT-I9100LKMBLC, with latest JB 4.2.2.

I did try third party unlock method.. but they are useless...

Hello, i tried unlocking my Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 after installing JB 4.1.2, successful rooting and installing. But here's the message i got after i ran Galaxsim unlock 1.43:

PRIVILEGED AREA

This feature is only available in pro version, however we're sorry to inform you that your current configuration doesn't support billing at the moment.

I am an idiot!!! :( I am getting worried now. I used the app, made a backup, unlocked the phone, then unrooted the phone and made a factory data reset and flashed stock rom, completely unaware that this will delete sdcard data (used to gs2)... Now my phone is ok, unlocked but I don't have the original EFS folder....

Is it ok? Will I get in trouble? Can the modified EFS be altered so it reverts back to the original EFS? I just want it just in case... Is there a reason to feel like crap on this Saturday?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] NIK3SH:
Come on.

Nothing to worry this much....

Most probably you won't need it as spocky has made it so perfectly.

It's just a backup to restore that folder INCASE SOMETHING WRONG HAPPEN AFTER USING THIS APP.

But as you're already unlocked, you won't need to.

Cheers.....

---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

Incase you really want them back.

You can put your phone in data transfer using data cable to PC and use any recovery software which will recover those deleted files.

But those files will be recovered only if any others files are not written in that partition location.

Best luck.....

Very weird...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sergiuhusca:
Yes...is an unbranded kernel...But this kernel have ****ing bugs...Phone reboot...dont want to stay off...Camera bug,...etc

When i enter the samsung lock code, show me he is fully unlocked...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mopral:
There is no "branded" or "unbranded" kernel

I would say that you should reflash your rom (with factory reset so backup all that you want to keep...) and root it yourself and then try GalaxSim Unlock...

(I hate when so called "tech people" from service center understand nothing to what they do...)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sergiuhusca:
Mopral, do you think that a factory reset will reunlock the device again?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mopral:
The files which say if your phone is locked or not are in the /efs folder so:

-flashing a stock rom should not touch this folder

-performing a factory reset should not touch this folder

After flashing CM10 i got a network lock, solved it by entering the network unlock code.

Used your app to finally see what's locked, very usefull, thanx for this :thumbup:

Everything green/unlocked but one surprise .. the country code (23203 = Austria / T-Mobile) ..

I did buy this phone from a Dutch (Netherlands) webshop as an unlocked phone to use here in the Netherlands.

What the heck did they sell me?

The phone works perfectly but this may explain the network lock when I flashed CM10..

btw. this also explains why my initial setup of this phone started in German
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mopral:
They sell you a branded (and probably locked...) phone with a flashed stock unbranded rom and a slightly modified /efs folder to make it "unlocked"

It's an old trick from some smartphone sellers...

It had work without issue for years but it seems that the last Samsung's "lock check" in latest SGS3 firmware broke this good old trick in the same time it brake voodoo unlock

I think that we will see a huge number of "my unlocked SGS3 get relock when I update it" thread
