Hi,
I recently got an HTC HD7 and love it to bits, I've even made my peace with the poor battery life on the thing.
However, here's the thing. I can't access USSD codes or the menu that comes preinstalled on the sim card.
Is there a hub for this? I need to be able to use USSD codes to access some additional services, check my credit balance etc...
Anyone got any ideas?

I have a touch HD locked to a portuguese operator TMN and i tried to use a rebel sim card but it doesn´t work. Can anyone help me?
Hi,
I had the same problem and all you need to do is place a small piece of card between the sim card and the sim holder to push the Sim Card down onto the Rebel Sims gold contacts.
Fully tested and working in my Touch HD.

You will have hardware issues later.
Rebel Sim's is not the best option.
You will also see a significant drain in your battery life.
Hi ferraripassion,
Thanks for your PM offer, but i've already got the HD unlocked through HTCunlock.net as i was experiencing some issues with the Rebel Sim. I had originally got the RSim for my 3G iPhone (wife wants to use it on Orange!!), and wanted to try it on the HD. Major issues trying to get settings for 3G and GPRS etc etc so decided best option was to unlock properly.
Thanks again
DF
hardware issues why?
Hi all, first time posting on the site, been browsing for ages, anyway, just managed to put android on my HTC HD2, replacing windows, works a charm thanks to the posts on this website.
Just abit stuck, cant find anywhere on the phone that I can change my mobile number, I migrated my phone number onto a different sim card as I lost my phone, so when I view the ME button in a text or call I make, its coming up with the sim card phone number and not my phone number, anyone else found this issue

Last year, I got an HTC Incredible S and absolutely love the phone. The only thing I did not like was the capacity, so I got a 32GB card instead. I do not know if there is a special procedure to follow when you change the SD card, so I just copied everything from one card to the other. Of course, some programs did not find the data, so that data had to get loaded again.
The phone was locked to an operator in Norway - Telenor, but as I used a SIM from an operator that used their network, I did not need to switch. This year I needed to go back to Brazil and wanted to make sure I could use my phone with my TIM number here. So I called Telenor when it was getting close and got the unlock code. I then tried to unlock it after changing to a SIM from a different network in Norway. But it did not work.
After trying a third SIM card, it seemed to work, so I thought it was ok and the phone had never actually been locked. How wrong was I...
After arriving in Brazil last week and picking up my SIM from TIM Brazil, I found out that the lock is very much in place. And the code I got is not working.
If I was in Norway still, I could send it to Telenor for free and they would fix it, but I am not. So what can I do to unlock it?
The full model as displayed by the phone:
HTC Incredible S S710e
The instructions for unlocking never mentioned anything about keeping the original SD card, but can that be the reason for it not working?
After I changed to the new SD card, the cold boot of the phone is extremely long, but most of the day-to-day operations is ok.
Any suggestions to what I can do to remove the operator lock? I have noticed that there is an official site from HTC where you can unlock some things of the Incredible S. Will that do the job?
I really need to be able to use my phone here. I hope someone out there have an idea what to do.

No the unlock procedure at HTCDEv.com is to unlock the bootloader so you can root and customize your phone. Unfortunately, rooting your phone will not help ou SIM unlock your phone.
You need to SIM unlock your phone which the unlock code should have done. Also the SiM unlock code has nothing to do with your SD card.
You need to contact Telenor and tell them that the unlock code does not work. Or you can try one of the paid services that provide unlock codes for a fee.
This morning I updated my note to 4.0.4
After updating it suddenly I wasn't able to make any calls or messages. I did some research and I have discovered that my phone had suddenly re-locked itself and is unable to allow my sim to work with it.
After doing more research I have rooted my phone and tried the Galaxy S unlock (which supposedly worked with the Note), and ended up with something like the attached picture. I see random icons but no specific code.
Here's a little background info that may be useful.
I bought this phone over in HK while I was there for vacation. The network lock occured when I first bought the phone but then the store that I bought it from found a way to fix it (without rooting the phone). Even when I upgraded to the OTA ICS there was no problem at all. I don't know why suddenly with this minor update it reset the network settings.
When I look into the mobile networks on my phone's settings a window pops up saying "Insert SIM card: Insert SIM card to access network services".
Which to me was kind of weird since I have inserted my sim into another phone and is able to make phone calls just fine.
Please help me! I have no way of contacting that store that I bought the phone from and I'm in need of getting my phone to work asap.
I am not lazy or anything, I have spent the last few hours trying to figure out how to solve this problem.
I have no experience in flashing a new rom and I really don't intend to do so unless i have no other choice.

You can - I believe - Downgrade to GB and run the unlock tool mentioned in that thread then upgrade again to your ICS..
Will this help?

used this mod and its working
Phone was factory reset after multiple issues and errors. I ditched the old SIM card in it and got a brand new one with a prepaid $3 for a day of use so I could activate the phone, but now I'm stuck on the Google activation screen, and if I make a new google account, it says the following:
"You don't have a network connection"
I checked the wi-fi setting and it says I do have one, and the SIM is registered with T-Mobile. I can't use any of the tricks I saw to bypass/skip the Google activation screen because there's no special ROM on the phone. Anyone able to help with this?
