I have personally done this on a S3 LTE and it worked but you do this at your own risk

It seems to be only available on certain firmwares. I have checked about 10 S3's and the option is not there. Its a pity because there is no other way to permantly unlock the s3 ATM.

Thanks for the Post.
Your method worked well in my sister's Galaxy S3 LTE .But when I tried it in my Galaxy S3 mini it didn't work(I guess I am not that lucky). So,I contacted my service provider to get the unlock code but they said I have wait until my Contract is over which is two years.So,I searched many site and found Unlock code for cheap price in
Onlinegsmunlock.com and unlocked my phone.

Hi all. This simple apk will unlock s3. Make sure after install that u do not update on google play as the new version asks for a payment. Download from my dropbox. Regards
