Samsung Galaxy S4 unlock

If you want to unlock your Samsung Galaxy S4, you're in the right place. While this unlock method might not work with EE Galaxy S4s, or Galaxy S4s with restricted service menus, for most tied down owners, it will cut the cord between you and your network, leaving you free to jump onto ours.

Not getting the [3] PERSO SHA 256 OFF option. Only the info option appears on that menu screen.

[@hunmatt]

at STEP 3 try entering to key input: Q0000. Then wait a few seconds and the menu is unlocked. Unfortunately I only see SHA256info in the network lock menu. If you can unlock SHA256off please let me know!

[@OskarSharns]

THANK YOU!!!!

[@feedmyfish]

Sean Reed dont listen to any of these people

[@kassonjdj08]

I have tried this several times and when I get to the key input and type 1 > ok nothing happens.

[@RadOo]

Those comments you can see are mostly bots so those video must be faked.

[@jefferysousa5261]

On (Key Input) try Q1 instead of just 1. It got me to the UMTS MAIN MENU. Did all the steps after and it still won't let me use my tmobile SIM.

[@chuckthomson6074]

[@dorito818]

After entering the one in Key Input it didn't lead my phone into the menu. How can I tell if my phone is an EE version ?

[@Mstweetylhen]

Hi i started your steps then got stock now im going back to step one and it is not giving the proper menu keys. What shud i do

[@rickogg08]

does a sim card need to be in the phone for the back to work, I did the code hit back then hit 1 and it did not take me the next step

[@stansmith6386]

Rick Ogg me too did you solve it anyway???

[@NeoSpirito]

[@susancastro6084]

Rick Ogg You can unlock fast and easy at *Fresh-Samsung-Unlock.com* this method works great guys..

[@antwanjamison4806]

+Gianni Berthelot question which might sound stupid so bare with me..... when I unlock my phone will it factory reset or will I still have all my stuff on it? again I realize it might sound stupid but I just don't know and I believe it'd be stupid not to know exactly what I'm doing to my phone.

[@and324fsjsef]

when I get to network lock there's only 1 option which is perso sha256 info

[@moetezknani2154]

me too

[@moetezknani2154]

did you find a solution ?

[@michymiranda]

my phone is not giving me a service menu

[@snamper1797]

+michelle miranda 1. *#0011# 2.Press "Back" 3.Press "Key Input" 4. Write "Q" 5.Press again "Key Input" 6. Now write "0000" 7, Then wait few second :)

[@michymiranda]

Thank you

[@snamper1797]

michelle miranda There you go ;)

[@lawrencedesmondleach]

at step three key in capital Q instead of 1. hit menu; click back; click key input; input four zeros 0000; click OK and wait . . .

[@rajgillgill8417]

[@angelmalpica786]

Work for any carrier?? I'm live in Puerto Rico..

[@rndm9087]

yeah it says to tap 1 and then back but there is a cut right after he tapped 1....so what happened? obviously a step is either missing or cut out so how do we get to that menu?

[@TheMeInYourFace]

doesnt work anymore. they fixed this with an update

[@drummerrck]

Did your unlock and now my phone doesn't work with my Metro PCS SIM card. Thought this was a general unlock. How do I undo whatever you did? I can't access service menu...

[@lamilicia]

Ok everyone go to settings and select networks and select gsm not cdm and then follow the video

[@joanroxas5310]

lamilicia mine is in GSM1800 .still not work

[@browniebarbie]

Help.... I dont have the option for phone control

[@ankamau8]

does this work if I want to change from T-Mobile to any other network or just giffgaff?

[@TheThediamondcast]

When he said it won't work with EE does he mean if the phone is EE and you try and unlock it it won't work or does he mean once you unlock it it still won't work with EE?

[@RobertoSantiagoRodriguez]

I do not get all the choices I see in your video... the stop at option 5 like the menu is locked out...is there a workaround? Thanks

[@user-gv3gh7pg6d]

Yes. No ADs here. We all know that an Carrier Locked Galaxy is worthless. So, there are many unlocking services that claim they can remove Carrier Lock with paid service. I just tried a third-party tool called *MOE* , you can use it on a Windows or device. The operation on Windows is a little bit tricky, easy on S10 instead. But *MOE* Has more success rate that is high compared to those online unlocking services. Below is the successful removal of Carrier Lock By *MOE*

[@Tobs1313]

0:43 You can see a glitch. Video was edited. It's fake and does't work!

[@F4TN4P]

bang on

[@lawrencedesmondleach]

It's not fake, sir. There are variations of inputs, that's all. Instead of keying in 1, key in cap Q. Instead of keying in 1 again, key in four zeros, 0000. Hope this helps. Keep in mind, also, that when you get to the menus, you can play around and see what does what. You can always click and go BACK to where you were. These videos are not designed to be a quick fix for every living device. They're designed to take you further than you were before you got here, trying to do it by yourself. I don't know the person who created this video. But he took me much farther than I was with this yesterday. I learned a few things beyond his teaching. And guess what? It worked. L

[@sandrashaw8426]

[@e1337prodigy]

Just a thought, do I need to have sim card in it? as it doesn't have a sim card in it at the moment.

[@mattwhite7014]

0:44 - "Step 4" ===> Why didn't you just select [1] DEBUG SCREEN from this menu? You were already in the UMTS Main Menu.

[@erinheilner7946]

just a thought why don't you just key input "0" so that way you start at main menu.

[@marvindalaguit1340]
