Hello Stephen, I would pay Bell the $50 because if they brick it, there is a chance that they will replace the phone. Read the Terms and Conditions associated with the unlocking and ask them questions first, however. Cheers, Amos Sent from my android device. -----Original Message----- From: Stephen <stephen-d@rogers.com> To: GTALUG Talk <talk@gtalug.org> Sent: Mon, 15 Jun 2015 20:49 Subject: [GTALUG] [OT] Unlocking Phone Samsung Galaxy S3 Well Android is kinda Linux based .... Now that I can walk from my Bell Mobility contract I am looking to unlock my phone. Free tutorials do not work on my current Android OS version. 4.4.2 I see a number of web sites offering unlocking that cost about $50. That is what Bell charges. I went to a computer outlet store and they quoted $35. Not sure if I get a guarantee, so Bell at $50 is still a consideration. Any and all comments and suggestion most welcome! -- Stephen --- Talk Mailing List talk@gtalug.org http://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
