    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
    Code:
    Onlinegsmunlock.com
    and unlocked my phone.
