Go back to the UMTS MAIN MENU by pressing Menu then Back (several times)

then tap [6]COMMON

the device will freeze, black screen, Blue LED Light, Menu and Back key ON. Wait for it to reboot (about a minute).

Your Samsung Galaxy I9505 is now Sim-Unlocked.
 
Dr Phone does the GALAXY s4 HAVE TO BE R00TED TO USE that method?

You can do this with Z3X bOX AND ALSO REPAIR IMEI for you who try and get your S4 buggered.
