Description
Free, requires root, GT-I9300 only, beta version.
First version: 1.0 beta1 of Voodoo Galaxy S III SIM Unlock tool. This application unlocks your phone baseband so it becomes able to use SIM cards from any carrier without restriction.
The application is only an implementation, hopefully efficient and convenient of the method established here on XDA-developers by txlibre: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1715149 Adapted from this original work from many contributors: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=761045
All credits to the people who defined the unlocking method, which is a much more tedious work than implementing it as an application. Please don't hesitate to thank them.
Unlock is immediate and doesn't require reboot, and the app doesn't depend on any external tool (like Busybox) except root.
Crucial data is backed-up before any operation, however automatic restoration is not yet available inside the app. I will write it it many of you encounter issues. So don't freak out, even in worst case the app should not be able to bring any permanent damage.
Note that if I'm careful when writing software this one is provided without any kind of warranty or support.
Redistribution of this APK is strictly forbidden outside of Google Play store, neither is selling it. For those who have trouble with Play store, you can also get the app from my web server: http://dl.project-voodoo.org/apps/VoodooGalaxySIIISimUnlock.apk
Known issues:
- It doesn't work on non-I9300 Galaxy S III or without root: Obviously. But not an issue.
- Query SIM lock as seen from system button requires 2 press to access the secret menu expected.
- I can't find the app when searching on my phone. Okay so let's try to add some useful keywords: SGS3, Galaxy S3, Samsung, SIMlock, SimUnlock.. well That should do the trick :)

No Longer Works This worked fine on my 3uk stock firmware, Updated to LG6 via odin and lost my unlock. App wont unlock anymore. Not the apps fault btw.
★★★★★
Awesome Unbelievably easy to use. One click and you're unlocked. Rooted and unlocked - just need a good jelly bean rom for the S3 now!!
★★★★★
WOW!!!! It actually works! Doesn't quite work with CM10 (4.1.1 Jelly Bean) - however it still gets 5 stars as I simply downloaded and installed CM9 (4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich) to my Galaxy S3 and ran this app and it worked first time!!! No longer locked to Orange here in the UK - wooo hoo! PS phone is still unlocked after I switched back up to CM10 (4.1.1 Jelly Bean).
★★★★★
SGS3 I9300 Worked like a charm! Unlocked in seconds
★★☆☆☆
Don't work with my phone I have Galaxy s3 gt I9300 but after run voodoo, it remains locked. (Of courses, my phone are rooted ) voodoo screens said that the unlock process was successful... but nop.
★★☆☆☆
No longer unlocked after update.. I have updated my phone and it has re-loocked. The app will no longer unlock the phone after update. I have returned to previous Firmware and it Unlocked the phone again. There must be something in the new Firmware (BLG6) that locks your phone again?
