Could someone help me with my Sim, i-mate pda2k evdo please? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi I have a i-mate pda2k evdo, it doesn't seem to have a sim slot at the back, well does but its covered with black plastic, because the carrier has built it in i suppose, how do I reset this? or get rid of the sim information, so I can put in my own at choice?

NO SIM
I think you have a CDMA version. They don't always have SIM. The only option then is to contact your provider (Telstra).

That feature is disabled on the version available from the HTC site.
I beg to differ
YOu can change the network ... what happens is some carrires are putting code in the sim cards to make them (fore them onto certain networks)
ie i was with AT&T wireless still with cingular and was able to change the network but when i got the new cingular sim card it will not allow me to change... when i put the at&t (my wife is still on at&t wireless plan) she can change networks from AT&T , Cingular or Tmoble but I cannot. it is due to the sim card
Can someone please write a start up item that blocks the SIM card from doing this???? pleeease
There are numerous threads about this problem all over the net...

Help! My Kaiser does not work with Cingular SiM Card!

I bought a Kaiser / TyTN II in Hong Kong, and it is a Chinese Windows version. When I was in Hong Kong, I tested and used it with different service provider SIM cards, it just worked fine.
However, I am now back to the states, and I put in a Cingular SIM card. My Kaiser could not find any the network at all. My Kaiser does not support the current service provider (Cingular), and suggested me to download the updates.
I tried to solve the problem by going through the network wizard, but I could only fine those Asia Pacific countries. No Northern Amercia countires can be found.
Please help!
Just to be certain, is it a newer 3G 64K SIM card?
Might just be a bad/old SIM card. I'd swing by a store and see if you can't get a new one myself...
Hi, I also got same problem today in China.
I am using Peoples Phone/GPRS SIM in HK, and everything work correctly.
Today I had business trip to china so I changed Peoples SIM to China UNICOM SIM(Only phone) . Then my kaiser couldn't find any network and asked me to chose Country and Netwrok. But China is not included in the list of Country....
PLEASE HELP ME Also!!
Whne I was about to give up, and left my SIM card in the phone. It took a few minutes, and my phone found "Cingular" signal. Now, I can use my Kaiser with my Cingular SIM card now.
However, whenever I turned off my phone or reset it, the problem happen again, but it took less time to pick up the Cingular signal.
I am using the latest SIM card from Cingular.
Remark: After a few trial confirming what caused the problem, I found out that if I chnage the channel (under phone setting) to Auto, my phone picks up Cingular signal everything I turn on or reset it.
I'm not really sure about this either. When I got my kaiser from att, it came with a new att 3g sim, which I never activated. I popped in my old cingular 3g sim from 2 years ago and it didn't work. Said no sim was inserted. That said, I'm currently using it with an old pre3g tmobile sim from 2004, and all is well.

My TyTn II doesnt recognize my SIM card

I had bought a AT&T Tilt off ebay and in the States it works with my Cingular network. However when I travel as I am now in Greece and use the Cosmote SIM card it states that the SIM is not inserted and thus I am stuck. Cosmote runs on the 900/1800 network and Cingular runs on the 850/1900. The TyTn II is supposed to work on each and every frequency. It was supposed to be unlocked when I bought it but I don't know exactly what to do now.
Anyone help?
The Card is not even recognized, this points more to a broken SIM Card. The TyTn Can operate in all these Frequenzies and would prompt an error that this device is locked to another network if it wasn't unlocked. So this error message is more like there is no SIM Card inserted.
Have you tried it in another phone? cleaned the metallic contacts of the Chip?
Maybe you can try the unlocker program, to make shore it really is unlocked.

Try to check on Phone settings if Network selection, Type and Band are in automatic mode.

The Cosmote SIM I have for my TyTn works great in my friends K1 Motorola KRZR and his brother's RAZR...Both of which were unlocked in the US and also have greek SIM cards.
Does there need to be a special 3G SIM card inserted for the device to operate?
For the link

Its telling me I have to pay to check if its unlocked....I don't want to shell out $40 for something that "might" be done already
My v1615 (with Vodafone) showed the same error after owning the phone for 2hrs! Vodafone confirmed the device had a hardware fault and issued a replacement straight away - new handset has been fine.
I'm not saying that's the case with yours but it's already highlighted to me that the stability of these phones can be flaky at times (having been warned by several people before buying)

Unlocked SIM, but still don't work!

Hello,
I have a problem with my T-mobile MDA Vario 3.
It was first simlocked, but I unlocked it.
And it works!
But only with simcards that are prepaid.
And I want my own simcard in it.
It's a USIM from HI.
The phone detects the other simcards but not that one.
Can someone help me?

What companys Sim card is not working? Only GSM ones will work (So Nextel doesn;t work).. also, you do have to be in the coverage area.... What happens when you put in the other sim card?

3G and dual sim

hi all
wonder if someone has some advice please.
i bought a dual sim card holder where you cut the sim cards and fit them into one holder.
fitted in my phone, my main number comes up but i seem not able to select and swap the numbers using the sim menu that does show.
i was wondering if maybe this is because the phone is set to 3G?
can i switch to GSM on the diamond and wonder how i do this please?
my "main" number is a TMobile contract number and shows up fine.
my other number is a PAYG Virgin sim
many kind thanks
