Motorola drivers work great for 3rd/4th gen HDX devices. Install the manager linked below; no need to run it. Select the newly installed drivers from Windows device manager while device is tethered. Might have to reselect driver when toggling between ADB and Fastboot modes depending on what else is on the host.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
So I've owned my S4 for 90 days and paid my bills on time. As other S4 owners on MetroPCS will tell you, that made me eligible for unlocking codes -- as the MetroPCS salesperson who convinced me to buy the phone assured me it would.

Sure enough, after requesting the code, I received a ticket number and, three days later, was sent a "network code" and a "service provider code" -- and no instructions whatsoever on how to use them.

Since then, I've called MetroPCS and gotten customer service people with no idea what to do -- "ask your new carrier to do it" was the common answer. Eventually, I called the corporate office in Harlem and was subjected to one of the rudest women I've ever encountered. When I explained that I had a ticket number for the request, she chanted "MetroPCS doesn't unlock phones!" loudly and at a continually escalating volume -- it was like being stuck in a room with the most obnoxious character in a reality show about career alcoholics. When I tried to tell her to look up my account, and that MetroPCs had in fact sent me the code she said was "illegal," she continued to yell the words until she hung up on me.

This is a process I was promised from the first day I bought the phone. I hadn't even been interested in changing carriers just yet (though that woman is making me reconsider!). All I want is to be able to swap the SIM when I leave the country and root my phone while using it on the GSM carrier of my choice. As long as the phone I bought outright is locked, I can't do either thing.

I realize that discussions about unlocking phones without permission is forbidden on these forums, but MetroPCS gave me permission! They just don't seem to know how to do the thing they gave me permission to do!

I was on the phone with MetroPCS for a solid hour today. I'd rather give myself a home vasectomy than go through that again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Exel:
You simply put in a SIM card from a different carrier and the phone will popup a window that requests you to input an unlock code, which I'm guessing is what MetroPCS gave you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
People who have tried to root MetroPCS S4s have been unable to do so because the phone is locked. Will unlocking the SIM unlock that capability as well?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
SIM unlocking and rooting is two totally different thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
As I thought.

The two codes offered by MetroPCS were a service provider code and a network code.

A few people who tried to root the phone reported being stopped by a restriction which prevented it (I'll link to the thread on XDA which contains those posts later tonight -- I'm about to go to sleep before work).

I wondered whether either of the two codes sent by MetroPCS might have any effect on that restriction. As I say, I'll be more specific later tonight.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Exel:
I believe you're talking about the KNOX thing, where it sees root it "blocks" it due to how KNOX functions.

But as someone said before, rooting and unlocking are two different things. Unlocking does not require root nor any file changes. Simply input the unlock code as I said earlier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
I'd love to know more about "the KNOX thing" -- specifically what it is and whether it can be defeated.

I'll do a search on XDA and google the term as well, but any other help would be greatly appreciated. I'd like to be able to customize my S4.

Edit: Aha! You're talking about this: "The KNOX thing."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] WhosAsking:
By the way, since you were given TWO codes, perhaps we can clarify. The unluck code is probably the Network code, probably denoted "NCK". The other code is in case the phone is also locked by the Service Provide (MetroPCS in your case), in which case you'll also need to put this one in. But use the Network code first.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
Thank you, WhosAsking -- that's exactly what I was asking about!

My understanding is that, once you unlock the SIM option, you need never worry about unlocking it again even if you go back to using the original SIM (as it were).

Is the same thing true of the provider code? Will unlocking it have no effect on one's service with that provider or is unlocking it something that is only done when one changes providers?

BTW: This is the message I meant to look up before. Given what the two of you have said, I think I misunderstood the message and that it applies only to changing the SIM.

I realize these questions make me sound like a diaper-clad novice, but I think it's better (and more honest) to get the help one really needs in depth than to pretend to be knowledgeable and not quite understand what one is doing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Exel:
Those instructions are if you don't have an unlock code.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
Ah, but there's the irony -- there haven't been any instructions. That person was talking about the impasse he reached because he didn't have codes to unlock the SIM but thought there might be a deeper issue.

The reason I don't feel too stupid about this is because I note that when one pays for unlock codes, they're accompanied by actual instructions for the person who's doing it all for the first time (and since I've been on non-GSM carriers until now, that would be me).

Anyway, thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] futty:
I thought like what was already suggested that you put other carriers sim in and it'll ask for said codes?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
WhosAsking answered the question, which is why I thanked that member.

On the other hand, the email that contained the codes and reps of the carrier -- MetroPCS -- not only offered no instructions but couldn't give any. As I mentioned above, one of them even screamed repeatedly that what I was asking for was illegal and then hung up the phone in mid-scream. That MetroPCS Harlem corporate store -- classy!

BTW: I've been reading about the region prompt and I wonder whether the lock isn't imposed by MetroPCS at all but is rather the region lock we've been associating with the Note 3. Perhaps the only difference is that T-Mobile gives you the code right away and MetroPCS, a pay-as-you-go variant, makes you wait to ensure that three months.

See this article.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
Here at last is an article that details the differences between the region lock and carrier lock which are particular to the Note 3 in general and to the Galaxy S4 sold (like mine, technically) after July 2013:

The article and video

And by the way: This article is reason enough for me to have hesitated before using various codes. MetroPCS users appear to have gotten locked S4s, so this might be a good read for anyone who did:

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
P6S would be a phablet size version of P6. Not much difference except the GPU is advanced and Antutu benchmark show 22k score.

http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=209175&mobile=yes

[Use google translate]

For pictures of P6S and other details, see: http://www.huaweiblog.de/news/huawei-ascend-p6s-ein-phablet-mit-design

Now although clearly most of us won't be interested in that bigger design, yet for others wanting that Ascend Mate size, this would seriously be considered as higher end option and plus the premium looks and performance.

If Huawei comes with an advanced version of P6 with the same current dimensions but better processor that saves more battery with better performance, then me personally would consider upgrading to that. :) There was a talk of LTE version coming for P6. If LTE is not in P6S, then there might be another one in plan.

Other than that, if P6S releases this year soon, then probably thats when EMUI 2.0 might come out.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] JoySu:
Nav bar is out of screen. Mmmm I like it.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
With a improved processor like that on the P6 too, the P6 would be a strong competitor to HTC one. I hope they do so before it gets too late. But then Huawei might have their own secret tricks up their sleeves.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
The news here seems to be referring to the same upgraded processor:

http://www.antutu.net/view.shtml?id=7200

So November/December the launch date.

And this new article :http://www.antutu.net/view.shtml?id=7331

There are two processors coming out. One is K3V2 pro which the P6S gone have. They also have the more advanced K3V3 which got ability to convert heat into energy and so on.

P6S appears in online shopping: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=35607473938

Got link from Chinese forum. It is clearly a refined version and many noticeable changes including battery removal, dual led, hard navigation button, an extra button on right bottom probably camera, headphone on top (no pin needed), micro USB at bottom, NFC, FHD screen and 13 MP front camera, 3gb ram, 8 core CPU and dual sim. The 7.5 mm is not the slimmest 6" phone, as Xperia Z ultra is 6.5mm. Yet the phone is a bomb in phablet range and pricing is a grab. Even though it does not have the finger print sensor as htc one max or the pen controls of note 3, p6s still is going to be a big threat for them.

It is also running android 4.2 it seems, which is fine by me because if they had upgraded to 4.3 then it would take a year to upgrade to Kitkat. While if it was running on Android 4.2, they would then upgrade directly to kitkat much sooner.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
Lol yea i was like what the heck, the concept version is the new p6S and totally different from all the leaks. It looks nice but the camera and the stuff below that takes too much space. I think this is thicker also hence maybe that's why a failed prototype. But the curves on bottom and up is good and i guess now its a signature shape of Huawei P6 series. The curve on both ends also takes away any resemblance to iphone. But cant find any USB port on that. The one on my signature looks more refined and complete. But then its just a fan concept as for now. I took it from Chinese Huawei club site.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] strikerdj2011:

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
So it seems the specs and pictures that was on the Chinese store was accurate. See this post. The chinese site link is dead now but a partial freeze page is available here.

EDIT: HOLD ON A MINUTE. Those pictures seen of P6S are actually that of a Huawei P6 clone. Its not the real one. See: http://multicorechina.com/carpad-t6s-review/

So P6S is a complete mystery. The P6S could be the exact same as P6 with different chipset and LTE. If the size remains the same, i might sell mine for the p6s.
[General Topics] Androideka:
KitKat...Kit...Kat...hmmm...kinda seems like a sellout move to me. I hope I'm wrong and the name was a personal choice by devs, but I get the sneaking suspicion it was an advertising play by KitKat. Even if this is the case, I truly hope that the namesake wont add pressure to Android to change their policies or operations. They have a really good product, and I would hate to see it changed for an extra buck.
[General Topics] Sythrix:
I read somewhere that no money exchanged hands, and it's a win-win for each company. I have no problem with KitKats. Google is pretty much the king of advertising giants, so saying they've "Sold out" seems kind of improper for a company that makes most of their money through advertisements. Advertising is the only reason we ever saw android come to life, cause without it, Google would not have existed. Try not to let it get to you. It's just a candy bar. I seriously doubt KitKat will have any major influence on how Google conducts its policies. I bet the name KitKat came up during a meeting and they just all instantly liked it.

Now if we start having forced KitKat home screens, I'll be right there with you against it.
[General Topics] Androideka:
I can accept that, and maybe sell-out was a bit strong. I guess I was confused over it all. It didnt bother me at first, but working at 7-11, I do alot of stocking, and all the new Kit Kat bars are pushing on the new Android version. Maybe it was just a good advertising play for both parties, but if I start seeing Andy doing the KitKat jingle, Ill go back to my Samsung Rant haha. Thanks for the insight.
