Model: SM-G920T

Provided to you by: http://www.UnlockSamsungOnline.com

WARNING: This guide is ONLY for the SM-G920T, NOT for the SM-G925T or other new T-

mobile USA models. The concept would work for other models but you need a non T-Mobile

firmware for your specific model (full original stock firmware).

Non USA S6 phones or S6 models not locked on T-mobile can be unlocked normally at the time

of writing (30 May 2015)

phone while trying to use this method. Follow this guide at your OWN risk. This guide is meant for

advanced users only!
