So i just got this phone from overseas it's on 4.4.2 baseband version I9505XXUFNBH, I need to get it unlocked but when I put my sim card in it from a different carrier i don't see any options come up for me to enter a unlock code? So I'm wondering if it's already unlocked but still when I have my sim card in it i don't get any signal bars whatsoever, only that circle which is crossed out i see there so anyone have any idea what might be wrong please

Hi
The baseband of your phone is GB/EE the same as mine. So it is possible that it is locked to EE or T-Mobile/Orange. Sorry I can't be of any real help.

Doesn't the icon at the top of that screenshot mean "No SIM Installed"?

1. This version of that firmware is ok... but there is an update ready.
2. Log and sig in Sammobile.com.
3. And download the update: HERE.
4. Flash it through ODIN.
5. Tell me how it worked.
