no......and there is not a service that can "repair" the IMEI either......I "repair" IMEI quite a bit with a JTAG and the software will not work until there is a root available. You can however sell it in another country and it won't matter that it is blacklisted in the US. Unlocking the phone or rooting it won't do you any good in the US anyway since all companies have a joined blacklist now. If it's bad on one it's bad on all.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mttron:
If your phone is locked you cannot use any other SIM card but the one that is for it! IE an ATT locked phone will only work CORRECTLY with an ATT SIM card or straight talk SIM card for ATT.

In order to FLASH a NEW ROM (Operating system) You have to Flash a new Bootloader IE ROOT your Phone. This will enable many things and give you more power IE delete bloatware, flash a new OS, etc. The Bootloader on the S5 is encrypted but many have found ways to replace it on the S5. If you find a good ROOT for the S5(ATT) use it at your own risk!

It is doable but may brick your phone if you do it incorrectly!

You can buy an unlock code from many places. Search for 'Unlock Galaxy S5'

AT&T Unlock

My problem is worst,

I got an G900A from AT&T and received my unlock code from them.

Phone worked nicely but it crashed during an OTA. Hard bricked i must say.

Only solution was returning it to Samsung. They were nice, send me UPS sticker and all and in 4 days phone was back and working.

Troucble: they have changed the PBA or motherboard, the IMEI is the same but unlock code doent works. It is not rejected, simply does not work.

I have the called back Samsung and they said this AT&T problem.

I have spend hours on support and they only know to open a new unlock service that results in the SAME code always, because it is tied to the IMEI obviously.

Is there a way to solve this.

Thanks for any help

had mine unlock here in the phillipines im on vaction and they were able to do it for under $20 and im using one of the sim card here and works fine besides the limited Lte towers here i suggest gettin another unlock code.. search for the cheapest one i know you could get one within 24 hrs but it cost a bit more
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mram11:
IMEI incorrect

Have you actually trying to get the IMEI dialing #06# or just getting the same from the back of the phone?

if they replaced the motherboard it won't match the IMEI on the back and you have to dial#06# to obtain it.

for example, my huawei prism2 can do this, but the galaxy s1 cannot.

two senarios:

1. take out the battery, plug it into the wall charger and try to turn it on.

2. leave battery in, plug into wall charger, then take battery out. does the phone remain on?

this feature is useful for example if you want to use your device everyday constantly with screen at full brightness. Now you won't waste away the battery lifespan, but obviously you lose mobility.

OK, turns out that everybody is right!

Plugged in the phone and removed the battery and it stayed on for about 5 seconds before going black. Would not power back on...

But maybe it is rom/kernel dependent? Mine are both custom :)

In a few years when it is harder and harder to find good new replacement batteries on ebay, I'd want to keep my device plugged into an adapter and use as a mini computer for whatever purpose I can fathom. I think keeping a battery inside while the phone is plugged into the charger all day and leaving the screen on for many consecutive hours (like when you are cleaning the house but want vids playing in the background on your Note2) can be bad for whatever life is remaining on the battery. It's even worse if the battery stays at 100%. Managing when to unplug the charger all day would be annoying.

I wish method 1 would work (turning on phone without a battery while plugged in charger). Even if method 2 works, many manuals warn that taking out the battery while device is plugged in can damage the device. Hmm

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jxsilicon9:
You can't run it without the battery because the charger circuit runs through the battery unlike other phones. If you pull it out while the battery is in it might stay on a few seconds as the electricity discharges but that's about it. You could short circuit the battery circuit to get it to run by using charger but that would probably destroy the motherboard.

Hi ,

I have dropped my recently bought Note 10.1 2014 edition and the screen was shattered. Touch is ok and I can see everything behind the shattered glass but it looks very ugly and nearly unusable . I went to the local Samsung repair service but they demanded ridiculous repair fees (~ 400 USD) so I want to give it a try myself. I have seen some posts here about screen replacement for older Note 10.1 versions but found none for the 2014 version.

What should I do ?? where can I get a new screen ??

Edit : I have images of the screen but I can't post them .

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] mulperi:
Two days ago I rooted exactly the same phone model. Search for a guide with cf auto root. It goes about like this:

1. Download and install samsung usb drivers on pc

2. Download Chainfire package, check model i9305!!

3. Run odin from package and click pda and select file in package

4. Start phone by simultaneously pressing vol up (or was it down?), home and power. You should get into download mode

5. Connect phone with usb and press start

6. Reboot

Now what the guides do not generally tell is that KNOX will prevent supersu from running. To get around that:

7. Goto play store and update supersu

8. Disable knox when asked

You should be rooted.

9. Install busybox, i think its needed for many apps

You will not be able to do over the air updates, because status is modified. That is no big deal with root imho.

Anyone interested in that OTA zip ?

---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ----------

This might help...

If you have the OTA.zip file... but custom recovery and such like TMUS application removed..

This will wipe your phone. Making a backup is not optional !!!

http://sadevil.org/blog/2012/12/23/manually-flashing-an-ota-update/

This looks somewhat straight forward.. If you want to get the OTA downloaded:

got to settings .. and manage to get the software update.. It will download eventually into your Download folder ..

Do not Apply the OTA at this point.. select install later!!!

pull the file on your PC/Mac/Linux box and modify as described in the URL above..

reboot your phone and the OTA should not bother you ... if you have pulled (like in remove) or at least renamed the OTA file..

Before you push Firmware.. and such make sure you have made a backup with CWM !!! or whatever method you are using!!!

also make sure you have your custom recovery image somewhere available and maybe a su.zip cwm file as you may loose root as well.. not sure..

If you have rooted your HTC one S your self - this should not be hard to DIY..

Currently I am at work and cannot try it out myself .. but definitly will do it once back at home later..

Godspeed to all of you brave hackers..
