So try to get Galaxy Tools from idone .
If you found it.....root your phone then install the 2 versions 3.1.5 and 3.1.8
Then tap on SIM unlock.
Or see his official website and try

To root the phone follow this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62241991
This phone you can use it as either CDMA or GSM phone.
Then you can use UAE SIM if you unlocked it to use global SIM.

how can i trust that site?

Look, the spoon-feeding needs to stop. You either need to do your own research or get a phone that doesnt involve you asking so many questions, and when you get answers, you question the very answers youre given.
Learn to read and fix it yourself if youre having that much of an issue trusting people and their answers.

You didn't say which and there were two links. I can vouch for idone's GalaxyTools app. Great app. Love it. No issues. Works as described.

For sure!
Interesting part is that code works with the original firmware and original card when I type in dialer #7465625*628*# and enter code.
But when I change to non accepted SIM, it's locked again and don't accept code with the same method!?
Same thing is with this software the difference is that it asks itself for code when you enter non accepted SIM, and another difference is that #7465625*628*#, *#06#, *#0*# doesn't do anything now...
Maybe we also have to flash a different modem firmware?
I tried to flash G925F modem with ODIN, but it fails. Maybe someone can make zip to be flashed with recovery...
I also have an unlock code, and the tmobile galaxy s6 edge, but according to you guys that tested it out, it doesnt work properly???

Yes SIM is Unlocked regardless of IMEI status. Check with your provider and ask if they "Network Block" your IMEI
I already use a s5 with bad imei for sprint but work with my carrier (overseas) , so i guess that is the same with the s6.
Maybe next monday i should tell u if it work

Some are getting Red X that means what?
This will NOT work in the US. Outside of the US, it'll work on any compatible GSM network, even if the IMEI is bad in the US, since the US blacklist only applies here

Hello,
Can this method be used to unlock S6 on some other network than Sprint, an Europe one?
I can flash Sprint fw if required.

I have a Boost Mobile S6 that I'm trying to get to work on AT&T. I followed the OP instructions, but it's still not working.
What steps do I take to "change CSC to SPR" ?
I changed sales_code to XAS and rebooted and it didn't make the mobile settings available ...
Any help is appreciated, as I appear to be stuck with a Boost S6 that won't work on AT&T.
Thanks !!

Huh? When you unlock a device GSM wise its unlocked for EVERY GSM carrier not just 1. I think you may mean APN's which can be added by looking up your carrier APN's

As soon as TWRP for 83x, and modifyed kernel already prerooted, looks like yes. You can. But for android 9 only (pie).
There is unofficial twtp for Oreo (android 8), so this is another story.
Just ask in twrp thread if you want.

i didnt try anything to be honest i dont need it so bad the root. only if it was something simple i would try. i read that t mobile locked it etc.
Unlock process if you have a code DOESN'T work. I got a code from T-Mobile it did not work ended up locking up the device had to send out another device now waiting for new code today I'm sure it's something in the software that T-Mobile did to block access to bootloader

Verizon model is definitely bootloader locked. Im not sure about the others. But the only models ive seen with unlockable bootloaders are the T830 and T835
T-Mobiles is definitely locked they were willing to reach out to Samsung and they did on my behalf to do it and was they never responded

You already got an answer. If you want to root buy a T830 or T835 those allow bootloader unlocks.
