Believe me or not, this bullsh?t only create more electronic junk. Why can't let the customer to unlock the phone from third party and re-use it elsewhere?

No matter how great the phone model is, it's sh?t if it can't be unlocked!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] winlinmac001:
I read on another thread in this forum that after upgrading from 'K' to LL4, the unlock procedure that many used to unlock their Note 2's for free has been removed. That probably means as of the current firmware from T-Mobile, you can't unlock your Note 2 unless you port back to an older ROM or contact customer service to get a whole new procedure in unlocking the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
Sad day as years ago i ran a side business on craigslist unlocking, jailbreaking and rooting phones. Made good money too. I used to unlock tons of blackberries and get them on boost. I dont do it anymore but i think this new law wrong. We should be able to do whatever the hell we want with our phones. This is why i moved away from verizon amd went gsm. I was tired of verizon locking everything down.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JUSMEJOSE:
Same here bro and I unlock phones daily and its a wrong law I dont say it because of I say it because of all the people that use to unlock phone fron the web how are they gonna feed their families ...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] James62370:
May you point me to where you have read this? I unlocked with this method and have upgraded to the latest LL4 and fortunately my device is still unlocked. I just popped in an AT&T sim on my T-Mobile Note 2 to confirm that its still working. However after reading your post I will be hesitant to upgrade to the next release. I am using all stock. Have not even rooted since I don't have the need for it just yet.

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] premiatul:
He was saying that if you didn't unlock with the old K,you won't be able to unlock with the new L4. But if it was already unlocked, then it will be unlocked forever.

I was under the impression that since I paid full price ~$698 with tax in early December for my SGH-T889 (because to my surprise after preliminary carrier tests offered the best speeds among all carriers in my primary use areas & best priced plan) that I would not have to wait 60 days to unlock but was informed otherwise (guess I'll wait a couple more weeks even if I have no current intention to use elsewhere as there doesn't seem to be a downside to unlock asap):

"Thank you for taking the time to contact T-Mobile. We have received your SIM Unlock Request. Unfortunately, we are unable to process your request at this time. The account must meet the following criteria:

1.	Must be active for 60 days

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SMARTPHONEPC:
Rep told me T-Mobile unlocking will continue but I guess I'll find out in a couple weeks..

Article also said: " You can also pay full-price for a phone, not the discounted price that comes with a two-year service contract, to receive the device unlocked from the get-go." so if paid full price from prepaid T-Mobile.com shouldn't it have come unlocked if article is accurate. Don't have another SIM handy ATM to really check..

No, you won't.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JOSE89178:
I can also confirm this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhxDroid86:
I would say if it ever came down to a court ruling is this...

If the phone in question is paid off, then ultimately no harm no foul... no reason to not unlock for personal gain (just make sure you report and file your earnings)

If its not paid off, you might begin to develop ownership clause issues, and if its under warrenty then you might be in some kind of forfeiture agreement...

Other than that, id agree with the statute of limitations with the whole January 2013 "grandfathered-in" statement... sounds about right
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] yzf750:
Nothings going to change.The carriers can unlock them still for you,and all the overseas unlocking websites will also since they don't give a rat about usa law. Do you really think the library of congress *police* are going to come knocking at your door if you unlock your phone? :)

That is when the next review is, it will be reviewed like they did last year, if the exemption is deemed valid it will stay exempted. My guess it will still be legal, and unlocking will be legal again.

Do not ever forget to VOTE. Those critters @ DC are always prone for more control. History is replete with petty tyrants, and it always starts small, even with issues like what you can do with your phone. Hey government, keep your hands off of our lives - your primary duty is to protect us from outside danger; our primary duty is to make sure you are within checks and balances. WE the people are the Caesar, NOT you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] OoTLink:
As long as companies can lobby(bribe) politicians you'll keep seeing stuff like that happen. Unfortunately, sometimes we have to have priorities when we vote, and I suppose issues like this are not paid as much attention as big ticket issues you always see bumper stickers with catchy slogans about.

Seriously though it's never quite that simple. I've seen politicians play the "Big government shouldn't get in your business!" line only to turn around and stand behind making laws telling people what they can or can't do.. because of their personal beliefs.

I'm trying to be vague but yea, it's not always black and white. In fact it almost never is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Angelbane1:
Not Really

Seeing as how I have been refused several times over the last week on a Note II that I purchased 2/1/2013, this is not the case.

I paid full retail for the phone with the assurance that it would be unlocked, they are telling me on one hand that the policy is to unlock a non discounted phone but it has to be approved by a group that will not approve the unlock.

... and the cell companies wonder why we hate them.

Thats nothing new, they do not give you the unlock code on the spot... Within 72 hours you should get an email like this. They have to research the IMEI to get the code.

Hi everyone

I noticed that there are extra digit with Note Firmawares. Not like those of SII.

For example, N8000XXBLK4, I mean the B. Also N8013UEALI3, here I mean the A. And the latest N8010XXCMA5, here it is the C.

What I noticed that this A refer to 4.0.4 Rom

And the B refer to 4.1.1 Rom

Finaly the C refer to 4.1.2 Rom

I dont know if it's well known to everyone, but I noticed this, and like to share it. :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] legion1911:
You are right.

So now we have a more reliable method to find out the android version without looking into it.

Sometimes they have a C but are listed as 4.1.1. Those are errors.

The next android version will be D.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Davo:
Hi Everyone,

I am currently trying to root my Defy by using the method outlined at the Motorola Defy: Full Update Guide however once I get to this stage...

I am met with the message "error: device not found", and if I run the command "adb devices" I am met by the message "List of devices attached", and nothing is show.

I have installed the relevant drivers, both those provided by Motorola through RSD Lite, and those provided by Google through the Android SDK. Furthermore I can see the device through RSD Lite, so I am convinced that the Windows driver files are fine, furthermore USB Debugging is set on the phone, and the connection type is "NONE", which in the case of the Motorola Defy is the same as "charge only"!

If anybody has any suggestions on how to overcome this issue they will be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Davo

Hey Fox, I had that problem the first few roms I tried. You may want to use TWRP as your recovery manager, and if you already are, or that doesn't work, try a different rom. I'm using PACman Unofficial with TWRP on my Vivid without issue (aside from call volume which is in all JB roms). Be sure to fastboot boot boot.img the correct boot.img and do it at least twice, before you use update from .zip. Good Luck. Cheers!:cool:

I was looking into NFC and what things you can do with it. I found it pretty interesting and wanted to try it out. I did some google searching to see what the status is on the Samsung Captivate i-897 and found the wiki here. It states that the NFC is "Not Known"

Now is there a possibility to get it working some how? Or should I hold off on getting those NFC tags?

I think it would be pretty cool to set them up all over the place.

I was playing deadspace on my N4 while running AOKP build 4 everything was good. Upgraded to build 2 and expected to titanium restore the data (I was at chapter 8) but nope.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LilHuntz:
On titanium did you select backup all user app or backup all user apps and system data. I believe user app backup just remembers the fact that you have that app and system data should be the information gathered from such things as games?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
Really? I didn't know that. I thought system data was just for system apps (ROM + Gapps, non PlayStore downloaded)

The Dark Jelly 2X Edition is a Custom Rom based on my Unofficial CM10.1 Build.

Note:

This Rom is in EXPERIMENTAL stage atm, especially the installation on new bootloader,

I ONLY tested the rom on the old bootloader, the installation on new bootloader, is AT YOUR OWN RISK,

it may comes to DATA LOSS, while installing to the new bootloader,

this may also happen, if you choose the WRONG bootloader in Aroma Installer,

you have to choose the INSTALLED bootloader!

If you install the rom on the new bootloader, you should be able to recover your phone with NVFlash, or the AIO Toolkit!

For an easier, more comfortable, and customizable installation, I use the Aroma-Installer by Amarullz,

which allows a graphical Touch-Installation.

For an easier, and more comfortable updating, the OTA Dark Jelly S Edition Update function is included,

I use the UpdateMe App from acquariusoft for OTA updates

Can you say something about the batterydrain and witch kernel are the best in your opinion for your rom?
[LG Optimus 2x] rugglez:
Great to see you back mrhyde!

The difference between Roms for old and new bootloader is deeper than kernel and boot image, things like vold.fstab too and probably more files, some of which cannot be modified after building :(

So as far as I know, a rebuild is needed for a different bootloader build.

By the way, if you trying further with a single build, you can consider using busybox mounting instead of direct partition addresses to avoid extra conditional cases ;) (expect for the boot image partition)

Cheers
