it might be available to you on sprint.com as your IMEI might be eligible, not all are tho. I unlocked mine a while ago out of necessity and sprint was being obstinate. Can you take a scfreenshot of this menu youre talking about and use MSFT paint to obscure any account details you dont want to share? Im sure many of us are curious about what youre talking about
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] NewShockerGuy:
Here you go sir!

That makes sense. I always thought providers had to unlock the phone via some FCC law or something like that?

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Youdoofus:
oh, thats international (intn'l) sim unlocking. Most sim unlocking threads on XDA discuss domestic unlocking as theres an apk called SSU.apk thats been around for quite a while that gets that done for ya without having to talk to a sprint rep. They usually ask you where youre going, how long youre gonna be there for etc etc. And i bet they relock it once youre back. Anyways, youre talking about a totally different thing bud :)

also the pin1 and puk1 dont domestically unlock it either nor does the MSL. Its an OTA that Sprint issues out, and not very willingly. Ive never known anyone who has had them unlock it and i know several people who have sprint S5s that are WAAAAAAYYYYY out of contract. Theyre just buggers about it lol
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] NewShockerGuy:
ahhhh, gotch ya! My bad. I thought it was the same thing with Sim unlocking...lol This is the first time I had a phone with a Sim card, my old phone I just replaced was a Epic tough 4g, so this is a nice upgrade.

My bad completely ;) Thanks for explaining it, now it makes total sense on why people would want to do this!

No problem man. And I have an old sprint galaxy s2 also, and you're right, it's a helluva step in the right direction! Only a couple of flaws with the s5 that have bugged me over the last 2+ years. Low light situations with the camera and the fingerprint scanner requiring you to slide your finger over it. Other than that it's solid

Galaxy s5 sport edition usa. 5.0 lollipop.

Hello. I've read through the forum and I understand that this method wouldn't work on my phone cause it's a USA version. It's currently activated thru freedompop which I have to set an apn manully anyway for it to work.. I also have gsm global which I use on a at&t unlocked tablet. The Sim cards we're apparently not put in there system corretly cause I can burn all the data I want. For example the global Sims r suppose to only allow about 1gb for the free plan. Then shut off till next billing cycle. I burned almost 20 GB in 2 days and still work lol. When I log into the Sim account to look at the data usage there's none. And best of all it free. But anyway I'm just wondering if there r any other options for me. In the system settings theres an option for uicc unlock and ask for a code. I've contacted both sprint and freedompop for this code to network unlock my device but no luck. Also is there any app /program that can find the unlock code needed to network unlock. Any help would be greatly appreciated

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] najoor:
Since this is an old thread and there seems to be no more support, and that people keep asking questions let me tell you my experience so you don't waste your time.

On sprint s5 the ssu.apk Pegram only works for kitkat and below so stop asking if it works on 6.0.1 or whatever. I'm guessing it is the same situation for any other samsung models because apparently they patched something from lollipop going forward.

If you want you can downgrade your s5 to kitkat through a process that involves flashing a certain NI3 rooted rom and a NK4 kernel on the lollipop and possibly marshmallow bootloader, then unlock with ssu.apk and then activate GCF. This obviously unlocks the phone only for international Sim cards. The process is explained in xda forums so Google it. Activating GCF is outlined in this post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56584156&postcount=103

If that doesn't work for you, you need to use a program called Z3X version 28.2 which is a paid tool, although cracked versions are said to be floating around. That tool unlocks your phone both for domestic and international Sims. You will then have to activate GCF.

In either case, your phone will only receive 3G Internet with non sprint Sim cards and there doesn't seem to be a reliable way to patch that yet.

Even after you unlock the phone, if you accidentally use the "Activate this phone" option under settings it will relock the phone.

So here are the answers to typical questions that people ask:

1- does ssu.apk work on sprint s5 on lollipop or marshmallow? No, unless you can downgrade to kitkat.

2- does it work on xyz model? Just try it, if it doesn't work then downgrade to kitkat and if it doesn't still work then you need a paid service or Z3X.

These guys h t t p s : / / idoneapps . com/instructions.php#unlock_single have a working solution, I have unlocked my SM-G860P (S5 Sprint) using their app. Their unlock service cost $35 USD, however I think it is very reasonable price after all pain and struggling I went through, trying to flash different ROMs etc to remove that stupid Sprint lock to use the phone outside USA (it seems that it is impossible to downgrade S5 Sprint to Android 4 Kitkat version after it got updated to Android 6 Marshmallow).

However I had to remove the LineageOS and install the stock ROM G860PVPU2CPD1 from this link h t t p s : / / idoneapps . com/forum/index.php?topic=297.0

But after the unlock I have installed LineageOS back and GSM (HDSPA) still works.

Hey guys, I am very close to unlocking this phone but I just cant get it there..

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] billa:
Guys, this unlocking app has been outdated since Android v5.1.1, Sprint has closed the loophole so don't waste your time unless you happen to have one of those older versions. Moreover, this is only for simple international unlocking only, it will not work domestically in the US. There are specialized unlocking boxes available for this task (GCPro, Octopus, Z3X etc.), they are not cheap so it's probably best to find someone near you with one of these boxes (friends or phone repair shops), who can get it done for you.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] gentlemann:

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] aalyatim:
For L720T you need to downgrade the modem to MK5 version. Then enable GCF.

To enable GCF you need a rooted phone, then type this in adb shell:

su

am broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE -d android_secret_code://27663368378

This will open the service menu. After that follow these steps.

ue setting and info -> setting -> protocol -> GCF

and select the first option to enable it. Wait 30 seconds and reboot your phone. This will enable bands to be used in the USA. The same goes for the note3, you just need a 4.3 modem.
