I have a Samsung Captivate that would love an unlock, however when trying it skips straight from searching block code to finished with no key. I do not mind donating to you guys but I dont really feel like paying some guy on ebay 7 bucks to tell me how to run your program. What do I need to do to get this code?
[Captivate Android Development] OrlandoChad:
Hi When I do

cp /efs/nv_data.bin /sdcard/nv_data.bin <enter>

I get cp : not found.

I am rooted and I have installed the sdk as well. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I follow the steps above and get the following:

MCC/MNC lock : 00101

I have no idea what is it. The code of course can't be used to unlock the phone.

I appreciate any help to unlock 2.2.

You need to install busybox on your phone. its available for free in market. then use command "busybox cp"
[Captivate Android Development] jarmenti:
I've tried these steps but get

Am I correct folks that I am in the wrong thread? I want to root my Samsung Captivate. The title of this thread is "One Click Unlock".

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] v1rtu0s1ty:
I'm familiar with unix/linux os. You have to tell what happens when you run su. It's very important command since it will substitute the account to root.
[Captivate Android Development] jarmenti:
right after i type adb shell, i get a $ sign

then i type su and after waiting for a bit it says permission denied
[Captivate Android Development] v1rtu0s1ty:
Glad you mentioned the error. The developers will be able to tell what went wrong. They might even asked you to check couple of files.

I'm fairly new to Android. Once I become familiar with it, I'll gladly assist as well. :)
[Captivate Android Development] H@nn@n:
This one works really great, thank you so much!

just some more info I just rooted the phone and then installed the Emulator on the phone and did the commands on the phone :)

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] darkamikaze:
you have to make sure you look at your phone after you type su.. to allow su.. :/ .. you only have to do it once.. then it will remember to allow su to that

Here's a guide on how to restore nv data. I haven't tried it yet so I can't say if it works or not. I actually got codes from the sgs unlocker app when I was on 2.1 and after I flashed the leaked froyo 2.2. Since then I have flashed several other roms before getting my hands on a different sim and before I knew my nv data would be corrupted. I want to unlock my cappy too but im not in a big hurry as I probably won't be using t-mobile anytime soon, I just don’t like being locked to at&t. There is also another fix using adb.

same **** is happening 2 me
[Captivate Android Development] upstairs:
Here is what I believe:

The guys at XDA are good but they are scratching their heads.

Some Captivates are unable to be unlocked at this time. After trying the XDA unlock with no success I took my phone to a cell phone store with a bunch of tech guys who have unlocked many Captivates, they tried everything and could not unlock my phone. I hate to say it but ATT has figured out how to stop the unlocking of the captivate for now.

[Captivate Android Development] bookofjoshua:
I have two captivates, one is unlocked and it work the first time. I don't remember, but I think I used the free unlock app from the market....

the other one (they are both 1007) gets this same return on a PC and a return of nothing on a my Mac. I'm stumped... I have looked at my nv_data.bin and it is fine, my IMEI and product code come back correctly when I check them.. this phone definitely has issues with being unlocked...

I would try to get one from ATT, but the phone technically belongs to them (business demo) so I really shouldn't even be messing with it..:p

Edit** I found another app called Galaxy_s unlock in the market and it unlocked my phone. the tmobile sim came right up. it's written buy someone who's first language is not english, but it's easy enough to understand even easier if you know what you're doing (e.g. backing up efs folder) there are step by seip buttons in the app I selected "show unlock code" before I started and it returned FFFFFFFF but I started the process anyway cause I'm a risk taker and it first backs up the efs then runs the unlock, your phone will go black then reboot after a bit and come back up open the app again and select option 3 then you're done...

I am running a custom rom GB ContinumRC2.

I have tried phone unlockers in the past with FFFF results and

just never messed with it.

I entered the code to see if the phone is unlocked and it is returning

a [OFF] under all lock options.

Is this a good thing? assuming I wanted my phone unlocked.

thx

[Captivate Android Development] Probaholic1:
Sorry guys, been busy with other stuff.

the "00101" is sort of irrelevant because it really does nothing for us.

if your still having problem accessing the nv_data.bin file it is because the permission is locked.

What worked for me is have it rooted made it easier. You can either use Root explorer or ES file manager to allow read/write permission on the top folder and attempt to copy it from there.

To the SD card

WORKING UNLOCK FOR ROOTED SGS:

Go to the Market, download the free Galaxy S Unlock app, follow the three steps to unlock it (after step 2, your phone will reboot). After reboot, disable WIFI and it should connect to the cellular network.

The original method does not work for me, I get the 00101 code only, which is not the unlock code. My SGS is rooted and I have root explorer and did set the efs folder and nv_data.bin to read and write, but it still fails to get the unlock code.
[Captivate Android Development] gcamp0730:
I realize this thread is quite old, but some people may still need to carrier unlock their Captivates. I just discovered that there is an SGS 1/2/3 Windows app that will load your nvdata.bin file and give you the unlock code. Since our Captivates are very similar to the i9000 I thought I'd give it a try. I loaded my nvdata.bin, selected GT-i9000 as my phone, got the code, popped in an old T-Mobile SIM, entered the code when prompted, and viola - network / carrier unlock!

Here's the link to the thread with the app - Samsung Network/Sim Unlock Code Generator/Patcher
[Captivate Android Development] sepherian:
Wow. Ballsy move, what are you running for a Rom
[Captivate Android Development] gcamp0730:
Not really a gamble. The app doesn't modify your nvdata.bin file, it just gives you a code to try when you put in a different carriers sim. I'm running Simply Stock KK4 v2.
