Glad to see unlocking worked for you. I will be trying it as soon as I buy my 'o2' Tab tomorrow. I was interested but did not understand your reference to 'dual sim'. Can you run dual sims on the Tab? I have copy a Iphone & Blackberry, both from China that work perfectly and I love their dual sim capacity.

Tried method one and it worked on T-Mobile Galaxy Tab. Shows network un-lock but cannot complete calls because dials google voice by default regardless of sim-card. Thanks a million man. Anyway I can donate?

Network Lock .... Forever !?

I think there is a problem.

The script is ok to modify the code but still the network is locked !

OK, the phone is the GT-i9000T but I think it should work the same true ?

Any Solution

thanks

no. different phone, different solution. your actually lucky you didnt brick your phone by using the wrong guide to do this.

have a look somewhere that actually does stuff for your phone.

like here for example > http://samsunggalaxy...-Galaxy-S/page3
or any of the other 20+ guides that google pulls up for it.

Anyone know how to *REMOVE* root access - ie the superuser icon and all that stuff? I'm on an AT&T galaxy tab 7" and it is a bit wonky now. Tried the factory hard reset (Power button and up volume) but that did not get rid of root.

I am following the directions but Odin 3 v1.7 does not detect my tab. When I connect my tab to my pc (win xp) and its in mount mode then the pc sees it(Odin does not see it in this mode either). What is going on? Any suggestion? Yes I have googled and those suggestion have not worked either.

00181462 is the "line number" of the hex key you need to edit.
Once you open that file using the Hex Editor, scroll down until you see 00181462 in the left column.
That line will have 7 "ff" pairs, followed by "02." That is what you need to change, at your own risk...
