Hi,
I am trying to use an O2 xda mini s with the Orange network.
I have sim unlocked the phone but not cid unlocked it. (trying to do it as easy as poss)
With the sim card installed the phone connects to Orange and I can make/receive calls without problems.
When I try to send SMS messages I get a "phone not ready, wait 15secs and try again" error.
Do I HAVE to cid unlock the phone or is there an easier fix?
Regards, Pete.

Radio/GSM has got nothing to do with CID lock/unlocking. Receiving/sending calls or sending SMS is the feature of Radio/GSM part of the phone,whereas,CID is unlocked for upgrading to other Rom (OS) other than official.
Perhaps,as you have got SIM unlocked and using Orange network SIM,you require GPRS/network settings from Orange or search the 'Network' forum for Orange GPRS/network settings.
Fixed!
Loaded the T Mobile rom and all seems fine.

Hi
Run this attached file from your PDA to unlock it.
Tim
thanx man but is it a sim unlock or service unlock(imei unlock)
I cant run this, it keeps comming up as not a win32 application?? any one help?? thanks
Download it onto your phone and run it - normally that error means that it's a PPC executable rather than a desktop executable.
Perfect, easy when you know how,,, Thanks

SIM unlock; IMEI unlocks are illegal unless performed by a network operator. But of course, you already knew that.
Works as advertised!
I used this utility to unlock my XDA IIi tonight and was able to put in a Vodafone SIM and make/receive calls. Thanks!
unlock xda 2i
please can somebody help me to unlock my xda 2i phone. Have 2 phones and would like to use 2nd one on T-mobile network.
after install AUTO_Unlock_v1.bat and faman 3.3 , now i put into de device 3600 the movistar sim device . now the htc device says : write the number code because sim is locked.
i only has pin sim.
how can i get it??
That AUTO_unlock is the one by Pof?
http://pof.eslack.org/trinity-unlocker/
That´s the one i use for my p3600 and it works with T-mobile USA and Movistar Spain,since I unlocked it I had never any kind of messages or anything like that.
Try out once again or if you are using wm6 downgrade to wm5 and try to run Pof´s tool again and If you get to unlock it go back to wm6,maybe you already did,let me know
Roaming
I just asked orange to allow roaming on my handset.
In an attempt to use my locked AT&T HTC One phone on my T-mobile service I used the Cyanogenmod Installer to root my HTC one and hope to use it on the T-mobile network; I also unlocked the bootloader via HTC website. The newest Cyanogenmod is installed (11-20140417-NIGHTLY-m7) and wifi is working, etc. Unfortunately, no phone calls since it keeps asking for SIM Network unlock code (I bought an unlock code...not working). Any suggestions? What should I do? I did some research and I read something about using an RUU...is this a good solution? Thank you all!
Status of phone on bootloader screen is:
S-ON "TAMPERED"

No luck the phone they're referring to is the HTC Amaze it seems.
Does successfully installing Cyanogenmod "unlock" the network as well??

No, bootloader unlock and sim unlock are different things. You'll need to be on the stock rom to input your sim unlock code.

And that's what worked. Thanks!
Hello,
I (still) have the same problem here. I have a DHD that was locked and branded. I followed HTCDev's procedure to unlock the bootloader and installed a Cyanogenmod ROM (unofficial 10.1) two weeks ago that works great. I've been trying to get my phone unlocked for days with no luck ever since.
I've tried using the HTC unlock tool v. 0.9.5/4 and rooting the phone too. Nothing. Drivers are working fine; program executes as expected, but I still have a locked phone after it finishes. I got an unlock code that I enter after booting and I get a "successful network unlock" message, but the radio seems to remain off. I cannot place calls. Attempting to choose a network operator manually from the settings menu fails; I get a "mobile network unavailable" message when doing so (service providers list does not even appear). I've read threads saying that the only way to get around this is by reverting the phone to its original ROM and HBoot, but I've read elsewhere that workarounds on branded phones shipped with Gingerbread or Froyo (like mine used to run) fail and/or screw up the phone, so I have not tried that. Any ideas or pointers?
Thanks!
Hi All -
I've searched everywhere for the answer to this and haven't been able to find it, so I figured I'd post here. This is the scenario:
1) I have a Moto X that is locked to AT&T
2) I wanted to give the phone to a friend who is on Sprint, so I paid for an unlock code
3) Even after unlocking and inserting the Sprint SIM, I still received the "SIM Network Unlock PIN" message
4) I now want to basically restore the phone completely back to the way it was (locked to AT&T), so it can be used with an AT&T SIM
5) I flashed the phone using RSDLite and the correct ATT ROM, but after the flash finished successfully and I insert a valid AT&T SIM, I still receive the same unlock message.
So my question is basically, can I get the phone completely back to being locked to AT&T, essentially the way it was out of the box? I'm also willing to flash it with Cyanogen or another ROM if that would help.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks for your time.
I have same issue, I had my Sim working for a couple of days but I wanted to return to stock to receive further updates and I flashed it with correct at&t firmware package but now there is a popup every time when I insert Sim about unlock code and I am stuck ... I think that's because of erasing modem st1 and modem st2 during flashing with RSDlite ... Is there anybody to suggest something helpful
Hi everyone,
I've been using an SM-920T 64GB Galaxy S6 bought from T-Mobile last summer. I did a permanent unlock using the T-Mobile application and since July I've been using the phone on the AT&T network. I just rebooted my phone today like I always do and upon restarting I got an "Invalid SIM Card" and it brings up a SIM network unlock PIN window that I can dismiss or enter a code into. What is going on?
I'm running XtreStoLite Deo 2.4 if that makes any difference.
Also, does anyone have the T-Mobile Device Unlock apk that comes stock with the phone? This is how I unlocked the phone in the first place but I don't have that app anymore since I run a custom rom, and the play store won't let me download it because I don't have a t-mobile SIM card in the phone.
Thanks!
Well for the benefit of whoever has the same issue. I flashed back the stock ROM via ODIN, ran the T-Mobile Device Unlock app, it said Unlock Unsuccessful in big, but right below it said the phone has been unlocked permanently. I put in my AT&T SIM and it was working again. Then I flashed back my TWRP backup and the phone remained unlocked. The non-Tmo ROMs get the unlock popup when a foreign SIM card is inserted, so getting an unlock code should work, but I didn't want to wait 3 days to receive one.

Can you tell me what ROM you used? I have the g920T also, and bought it USED unlocked from ebay, but it had the FRP (factory reset protection) lock on it. I had my US cellular SIM card in it, even though I was stuck at the "enter your previous used google account on this device" and the SIM seemed to work (saw the LTE bars above).
But the only way for me to bypass the FRP was to flash to the ROM to stock (which I used the G920T tmobile ROM) and I got to the home screen but now it says "Invalid SIM card. Network locked SIM card inserted" just how you were saying.
When I try using the Tmobile unlock app, it says "Server not responding. Please try again later." .
Please help!
