That unlock site is a scam. They send you a random generated unlock code and direct you to download their apparently from their website to enter the code into. Although the apparently states your phone is unlocked, when you swap the non AT&T SIM with an international SIM it will prompt for an unlock code again. The unlocked code provided does not work. Filed a disputte with PayPal and received this email from samsungsimunlock.com:

You need to cancel PayPal dispute as soon as possible.

Your phone may be permanently locked because you have interrupted un-encryption process on server and system will place your phone IMEI to 'blacklisted' database.

The phone will stay permanently locked.

Yup. They are a scam. I paid with PayPal and filed a dispute.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Doesn't ATT use unlock codes? I know they did with the Note 8 and the Note 9. I had to submit a request through their website with the IMEI, and 12-24 hours later ATT emailed me an unlock code. You put the foreign carrier SIM in it and it prompts for the code. Of course in the case of the Note 9, ATT supplied an 8 digit code instead of a 16 digit code. I had to pay a 3rd party for the correct code.

Is it not that way anymore with the N10 or S10?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] dami00976:
That's exactly what they told me

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

My quiestion is can they block the IMEI? What they sed is that since the process has started they and it is 76% the IMEI may be blocked. Is this true?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Shadoe_Lance:
An hour after I filed the dispute paypal refunded me. Seems it's a common paypal dispute. No. They can't blacklist your phone. Only the carrier that you purchased the phone from can do that. And normally if lost or stolen.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] connieoldham:
I was looking into this forum for other info and saw mass confusion with Sprint support so let me clear the air in here.

6 digit '000000' msl code which Sprint is provide by phone call is not an unlock code. Unlock codes are 8 digits or more. Msl codes were used in flashing a phones software, which due to all newer devices taking sim cards, it is a worthless technology or thing to do, getting the user only 2g-3g typically.

Note10 Sprint phones do NOT take an unlock code at all to unlock (almost all other makers do). As I know, Network Unlock tool is needed.

Note10 can work here in the US if you unlock it (bought 3 from sprint on ebay and 1 was unlocked and worked fine with metropcs).

Carriers are not the only ones unlocking phones. There are a lot of reliable sim unlocking services online. Sprint is really dissapointing
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
verizon actually sim locks all devices for 60 days now including iphones which was approved im sure by the fcc despite the previous ruling...

every carrier has similar policies.. will b hard to sue when u agree to the terms before purchasing the device from a carrier..

i personally dont see any problem with the policies.. ppl want something that they havent completely paid for and do not own yet.. then theres those that commit fraud by purchasing or stealing devices then "unlocking" them and selling for profit causing carriers to lose out..

once a device is unlocked theres nothing tying it to a carrier and not much they can do to recover the cost if it wasnt paid in full.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
to add, Sprint has a new sim unlock process rolling out on the 24th.. they will b able to do device unlocks on the spot.. of cpurse the device still needs to b eligible to b unlocked (paid off, active at least 50 days, acct in good standing.)

so policies stil same but no longer would have to wait 2 to 5 days for the unlock..

i believe care will have access to the tool and of course acct services.. care typically would only handle the process in ome off situations as these calls are still churn risks which are handled by acct services so u might still b transferred at least once lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
they arent breaking any laws lol.. u agreed to the policy when u purchased the phone.. there is a process (they are improving by releasing a tool to agents that can now unlock on the same call) at which per policy it usually will take 2 to 5 days..

they also do not automatically unlock once paid.. u have to call and request it..so the time frame for the unlock starts from when YOU request it.. u cant hate on low level reps doing their job.. heck they are actually following the rules lol

also as i stated earlier, sprints actually working to improve the process.. once requirements are met they have a new tool that can unlock immediately.. i took training on it Thursday and itll b a go as of 9/24.. its possible whoever u spoke with was able to use the tool to unlock ur phone..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
msl code is NOT a sim unlock code lol.. in the event u paid off ur n10 already u still need to meet the 50 day requirement before they will unlock it..

dunno y its so difficult for ppl to read up on carrier unlock policies.. ur just wastin ur time talkin to sprint then goin to att lol.. now if all reqs r met n theyre still not unlocking it then id raise hell lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
SIM unlocking isn't dependant on which software version you have. You just have to pay off your phone, and in the case of T-Mobile, have it active on your account for 45 days. Then you use the built in device unlocking app to request the unlock.

If that doesn't work, don't bother calling in. Just reach out to T-Mobile on Twitter. They are super helpful and friendly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pete4k:
All my phones are paid in full and yet 1 phone I wasted whole week talking to carrier and Samsung back and forth and over 2 yrs later it's still locked, my new N10+ I have to wait more than a month, so still will have to see the outcome, WTF . I can understand if the phone is on a plan, but if it's paid in full it should be illegal to keep it locked. In the end I think it's my fault and to fix this N10+ will be my last carrier branded phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
its not illegal when they have clear policies you agree to when purchasing the device
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pete4k:
I didn't say it is illegal, I said it should be and probably is in countries that have some minimal consumer protection.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Xeon:
Hi Guys, quick question... Im in Europe and want to purchase the SM-N9750/DS because it has SD855. I've seen couple of ones for sale on Amazon... It says factory unlocked. Normally the SM-N9750/DS is Latin America / China version.... ( GSM version ).

If I place an order should I also need to unlock it by making that 5 mins call ? Is it locked by region as well ? Because the one I got with the Exynos 9825 was unlocked but it clearly said on the box EU SIM cards only... Apparently I have to place a 5 - 10 mins call using an EU SIM before it unlocks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] sd_N:

You're right, I purchased a US Cellular Note 10+ and popped a TMobile sim in and it works fine.

Guys, Note10+ N975F/DDTM is Germany carrier locked phone. Can I unlock it by simple flash unbranded firmware trough ODIN? If no is there anyway to do it for free by my self?

Again and again the same mistakes, I should read whole thread and not only first 3 pages... yes yes I do that many times... speaking to my self...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] wepa:
No
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
no.

i dont understand how ppl can think simply flashing unlocked firmware could sim unlock a phone lol..

if it were that easy carriers n oems wouldnt spend billions of dollars on security measures and thered be no point in them even locking it to begin with if it were that easy.. just sayin...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] rmn.br:
ok ok :) If remember right, some years a go was able unlock branded Huawei/Honor phones, even make it from single to dual sim. I would say 70% people dont know and never will know how flash firmware. Flashing Huawei is pain in the... (you cant flash to Huawei anything manually even maybe official) Im not sure but maybe also HTC DHD was able unlock with flashing unbranded firmware.

So thats why I thought it is possible do it for free / easy way. I dont think so there are billions dollars, in locking phones for 2 years to one carrier. Yes its part of those "billions". No offence, just my opinion.

edit: I found tools for do that... like FunkyHuawei can save you hassle and time with flashing, everything is possible also without 3rd service but longest and painfull way, at least with Huawei

Guys, I don't know if here is te correct post, but when I search here in forum, I was searching for a solution to unlock my device (Galaxy Note 10+) and my phone was locked to TELCEL carrier here in Mexico, I bought an unlock code for $18 USD, but my problem was that when I insert another carrier SIM to my phone, the screen was locked, and I can't have access to the phone, neither to configuration menu, don't ask for a unlock code, I was thinking to load other carrier rom to fix problem, but I search in web and I found this, and it works for me, I put the code without a SIM and then phone ask me for the unlock code, then it works, now I have my Phone unlock to any carrier. Hope this help.

If your phone does not ask for “SIM Network Unlock Pin” then you can go to the dial screen and press

#7465625*638*#

Congratulations! Your Samsung now asks for the unlock code.

If your Samsung still doesn’t ask for the unlock code you can check out another article from our Help Center that will guide you through more troubleshooting steps, but for those, you are required to already have the unlock code generated.

Exception!

Please note that there is also the possibility when your phone can only be unlocked through the Device Unlock app specific to T-Mobile USA and Metro PCS USA.

In this case, your Samsung will not prompt you for any unlocking code because there is no designated field in which a code can be inserted.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] eL_pIt:
I get my code here in this page:

I choose unlock by USB option, because it was cheaper, but right now I check and unlock code is cheaper just 14.95
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] kingfisher1111:
I don't see unlock by USB option. Everyone is charging above $65. Why are these guys cheaper? How much time did it take?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] eL_pIt:
For me it takes like 5 hours and then they sent me a credit for use in USB unlock software method, when I ran the software it use the credit and then the software generate the unlock code

Please inbox me sending your imei, and I try from here, I'm I'm Mexico, may be that's why is cheaper or depends on the carrier company, which company are you ??

---------- Post added at 06:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 AM ----------

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] kingfisher1111:
They sent me after sending an order.

Unfortunately the Samsung server does not have the IMEI on its database.

You have already been refunded automatically your money.

In our website are there an alternative database to get the unlock code, you can try to buy the code again.

I don't see an alternative database option when I did enter next time my IMEI number and carrier Sprint.

Any other provider you are aware that can unlock for reasonable price?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] speedyjay:
Yeah....your carrier. They'll usually do it for free if you're willing to wait. I know with Vodafone UK you have to have made 3 consecutive bill payments on time before they will even look at your unlock request. Then, they'll issue it to you for free when requested.

Recently Spotify decided to remove their Widget for whatever reason.

Luckily with Tasker you can bring it back! Check it out!

[YOUTUBE]Q7vqWXu3YJg[/YOUTUBE]

Just import the project from here and follow the instructions at the same link and you’ll have the Spotify widget back in no time!

As a bonus you can click the widget's title to change the app to control, so you can, for example, control both Spotify and Google Play Music with the same widget!

Don't forget to get AutoNotification and enable its Notification Access service (in Tasker > Menu > More > Android Settings > Notification Access > Enable AutoNotification) to get the album art to work.

Enjoy! ;)
