So I'm gonna get a TMobile N900T Note 3 and will unlock it using an unlock code.
My question is, if I root the device in the future is it possible that the device can be 're-locked'?
I guess that's it. Let me know,
thank you

Is anyone working on no code or nv read unlock on the sim?
Yeah, I'm not sure about that but I have a related question. I unlocked my phone today on the stock rooted ICS rom. I'm wondering if the unlock will persist if I flash darkside v7 or if I will have any issues using my phone in europe after flashing a custom rom
EDIT: I actually also remember seeing a dev only unlock thread in the android development section so you might wanna check that out.

That does not work and its for the i9100 not the T989
I can't find any statements about the bootloader being locked or unlocked on Sprint, only that Verizon's is locked. Does anyone know for sure? I don't want to get stuck on a phone I can't modify.

Well sprint hasn't done it, and for sure Samsung doesn't do it, so I'm gonna go ahead and say no its not locked. Verizon is a **** that way.
There is already root for this device. Check the original development thread

Root and bootloader unlock are two different things. I havn't check the dev section but from what I heard the root was for the pre-release ROM, since then Sprint have change the firmware and the current root method doesn't work.
As far as the bootlocker concern, getting bootloader unlock means you can install custom ROM which have different kernel. Say you want a custom rom with Android 4.2 earlier than Sprint release or stuff like cifs module or overclock and etc, then you would need bootloader to be unlocked on the phone.
boot load is unlocked and root is for todays release. chain and i worked on it all night for yas.

Exynos source?
Does the Note 2 have the Exynos source out? Aka do developers have full access to the Exynos processor?
Or will there be problems for custom roms? (I heard without the source custom roms would be buggy or not full featured)

Is the T-Mobile's version of galaxy note 2 (SGH-T889) bootloader unlocked?
I had read news that Verizon's version was locked.
I have rooted the phone already (as per the thread in the development forum).
I know that rooting the phone and unlocking the bootloader are two different things.
I wish to install some custom ROM in the near future.
Yes, Verizon was the only one that locked their bootloader

As you were told, you can use the downgrade way from the hidden menu or Galaxsim unlock that needs root and busybox. I used it in my GN-7100 and worked flawlessly. Or you can try contacting the carrier for the unlock code.

Hi, guys, I just got the Verizon HTC One today and it came out of box with Android 4.4.2 and Sense 5.5 build no. 3.11.605.1 CL304035 release-keys. I have read through the Android Development forum and Original Android Development forum and I didn't find any tools specific to the 4.4.2 build. Can any of you point me in the right direction? Or is the bootloader and S-Off method still in the works? Please don't tell me that this is going to be like the Samsung devices and locked down forever! Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!
As of right now, there is no s-off, bootloader unlock, or root for 4.4.2. But im sure there will be eventually. As i understand it, firewaters exploit was not patched, but the needed temp root method was.

If you got the device from a retail store just go back and try to get a replacement. There's a good bet most of them are not on 4.4
Gotcha(directed to both of you) I'm sure there'll be a method soon, if nothing else moonshine, rumrunner, etc. Will probably just be updated as I figure. I used to have the Droid DNA which is an awesome phone and I used moonshine and loved it. I love those one click programs that does everything for you! I just thought I'd ask because I read through the forums first and didn't see anything and I just wanted to make sure I didn't over look anything. Thank you guys, I appreciate it.

Almost 5 months for a root method? I feel really bad for those stuck on 4.4 now. I'd just jump to the M8 at that point.
Yeah August is a long way off and sure we will have another update by then which most will take making his exploit useless.

For the most part, beaups was silent before he cracked 4.3 right?
And they can't patch an exploit if they don't know what it is right?

I wish kingo was compatible. I mean I would like to have soff, custom recovery and an unlocked boot loader for custom ROMs but with how smooth and fast the 4.4.2 software is, I would be perfectly fine with just root.
