    I9100 faling to unlock [Solved]

    Hello,

    I have tried to active the phone as shown on the youtube video ([ Login above or register to see download links. ]).
    I get an error message (several actually):

    Code:
    10:17:51 PM - Getting data from phone
    10:17:53 PM - Phone Model: 	GT-I9100
    10:17:53 PM - Current Firmware: 	ERROR
    10:17:53 PM - MSL Serial: 	ERRORERROR
    10:17:53 PM - Phone Imei: 	000000000000000
    10:17:53 PM - Reading NVM.. Please Wait (some minutes)..
    10:21:14 PM - ERROR: Root bypass Failed. Try Again (len:0)
    10:21:14 PM - Make sure phone is in Development mode
    
    10:21:14 PM - Remark: if your phone runs android 2.3.x or higher you have to manualy root the phone first!, or you can also downgrade to an 2.2.x version witch you can get from SRS Support.
     If your phone is manualy rooted and has superuser installed (SU) then select model ANDROID2.
    
     -- Operation done in 204 seconds --
    The problem seems obvious, it can't read any information of the phone (the above is the actual text, not adapted by me in any way).
    After I read this, I see my phone is turned off, and I have to turn it on again (which I can't unless I take the battery out first, btw!).

    So I decided to follow the "remark" and try with ANDROID2, instead of i9100, using the same comport and modem port (in my case 5 and 7 it seems). I get this error message then:

    Code:
    10:36:56 PM - Getting data from phone
    10:36:59 PM - Phone Model: 	GT-I9100
    10:36:59 PM - Current Firmware: 	ERROR
    10:36:59 PM - MSL Serial: 	ERRORERROR
    10:36:59 PM - Phone Imei: 	000000000000000
    10:36:59 PM - Reading NVM.. Please Wait..
    10:36:59 PM - If phone asks for root access you MUST accept this!
    10:37:16 PM - Phone rebooted start decrypt...
    
    10:37:17 PM - ERROR: Failed to find Simlock Block.. 
    
    Please check if phone is locked, if locked sent dump file to SRS Support
    
     -- Operation done in 21 seconds --
    Here something else happens: phone reboots, so naturally I check whether phone is unlocked (switch off, put simcard in, and switch on again); it is not. The dump file that I am supposed to send to SRS support is empty. It only has the following line written there: "Phone Data Dir" and that is it.

    I assume something goes wrong in getting the port numbers right, so here is first question, how do I get the port numbers?
    Second question, if this is not the problem, what do I do?
    This is not a matter of wanting my money back (at least not yet), I want my phone unlocked.

    To be sure, I have the phone rooted (according to several market apps), as well as USB debugging set ON.

    Thank you,
    Babrak

    After contacting 123unlock personally, the problem was found and solved.
    Apparently something was wrong with one of the files (nv_data.bin). Through teamviewer, Robert found the backed-up original and did his work. Within half an hour, phone is unlocked!
    Very pleased: quick and efficient, and costs a fraction of what you would pay at stores.

    check the lock status with *#7465625# on the phone
    if all locks are off then it could be your provider is blocking this phone from their network
    in that case contact customer support of your operator

    I have the same issue here:
    Phone Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100)
    Firmware: 2.3.3

    when I type: *#7465625#
    I get the following information:
    Personalizationb Status
    Network Lock [ON]
    Network Subset Lock [OFF]
    SP Lock [OFF]
    CP Lock [OFF]

    I called my network provider they said that i am eligible for network unlock, but they don't know what's wrong, they instead asked me to go to Samsung.

    I sent an e-mail to SamMobile premium support at [ Login above or register to see download links. ], waiting for an answer from then.

    I will call Samsung now, and see what they can do.

    I called Samsung about the Unlock issue, and they told me that they don't deal with any network related issue, only mobile network provider will have to solve that issue.

    this is not the same issue at all, it looks like you entered the wrong unlock code too many times
    as also written in the mail, you can try to enter the MCK code (NOT NCK) thats the master key, if thats not working we will put 3 credits back on your account so you can use the DIRECT unlock option to switch off thelocks

    my issue has been resolved by entering the MCK code and then entering NCK code:
    - MCK: xxxxxxxx (Master Unfreeze)
    - NCK: xxxxxxxx (Network lock) [Locked]

    so happy days!
