The present owner disclosed the phone was given to her by a relative in the US. And the sim has been unlocked.

Yet when a sim is inserted,it shows-INVALID SIM.
Please help me know;
1.How do I verify it has been unlocked or not?

2.If unlocked or still locked how do I resolve the invalid sim issue?

3.Would dongle-SM help in fixing the problem?

I can confirm this works. I've unlocked a couple of devices using the same method. The only downside is only 3G Data and Unlock isn't permanent. Factory reset device and you will have to redo everything again

Thanks freshtyt. The steps in the video aren't so clear to me. And I don't have the tools he used.

Thanks slayer for the J3unlock link. Any reliable link for last Odin and the NVtool used in the video?

Slayer1313,thanks your J3unlock zip gave all I needed to apply the video tips. Yet as you can in picture I didn't succeed in flashing the J327p_U4 unlock tar with the Odin patch. There was no response from the Odin. What's the way forward?

Doesn't seem like you had the phone in Download mode. What's the software version currently for the phone anyway? Settings>About phone/device> Software version
