[Q] way to check the tab locked/unlocked - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have unlocked the att tab long time ago and it was working fine. Then since few days i am messing around with different roms and modems and now my sim is not recognized. Does it means i have locked the device to att because of lot of flashing. Can someone please tell how to check if the att tab is still unlocked or locked. Maybe sim is not working because of wrong rom or modem. Sim working fine in my iphone. I was on rotohammer rom when tab worked like phone then flashed 2.3.3 and lost phone capability. Still has phone icon on the tab. Please need fix.
Thanks,

Hi Tabing.
It is me again.
Are you back on Roto rom now? or in one of the GB rom?
It seems only HyperDroid Androidmeda has the remark by the dev that it has roto unlock commands built in. With that, I assume unlocking is not a permanent thing?

well in my case I went to setting than network then mobile network and changed it to gsm and my cim has been recognized again by the system
just to let you know I was on froyo and I upgraded my tab to 2.3.3
good luck

Did you flash it back to stock with the one click Odin or did you Flash Jf6 manually?
Try the one click Odin ROM.
Yeah, try flashing back to stock with Odin One-click.
Also, is your SIM card in correctly? I know, I know, but I have seen that happen, it's worth checking out.
If you tried flashing the latest I9000 froyo build try and contact Zilch. He had the same issue. But he figured it out

[Q] No network connection?

Hey everyone,
I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S from Sasktel sometime in mid-october. This is the first android phone I've ever had, and after a few days i decided to try to root it. The rooting process went fine and I had absolutely no problems with my phone. However, i eventually decided to try a custom ROM. I went with Darky's Raw Steel Edition from this forum but after i successfully installed it (v2.2) I could no longer connect to the data network. I could still make calls and receive texts, but any sort of internet connection wouldn't work. When version 3.0 of the rom came out I installed it but had the same problem. I thought my best option at this point would be to just restore to the stock 2.1 firmware. I wasnt exactly sure what my phone had been on when i bought it, but i decided that I9000XWJM9 from samfirmware would be my best bet. I flashed with odin, and now I have no network connection at all! Does anyone know what my problem could be? Thanks so much to anyone who can point me in the right direction!
Find your apn settings from your provider or google it and it is is this forum aswell where theres list of them just enter your apn settings for your provider manually.
Go to www.tweaker.com and get the settings for ur network

Thanks for the help! However, I'm having some trouble finding the APN settings for sasktel, if anyone could post a link or something that would be great. And gadgetcheck, I think you gave me the wrong link, it takes me to like a media site with nothing about APN settings as far as I can see.

I am really sorry man!
I actually miss tiped the url in my last post.. Now this url will help u out...
If u need more help mention me http://twitter.com/gadgetcheck

the SaskTel i9000m stock firmware is JH2. If you're going to use a custom rom, use Doc's. That's what I'm currently using, no issues whatsoever (also on SaskTel in Saskatoon ) If you need the apn settings, let me know, and I'll just copy them out for you, but I'm pretty sure Doc's rom already has them, as I never had to add them. Though maybe they just carried over from my JH2 install?

you could use ( one click unlock ) not very hard two do,just save efs files then click unlock, one thing though if u are on froyo 2.1 click the the froyo 2.1 option or 2.2 if you on 2.2 froyo,but i think you need root to use this program (mite be wrong)
anyway good luck
it depends on the model of the galaxy s. In most cases, you will need to root the phone.
Help Pls
I had successfully unlocked my galaxy s using the procedure suggested on the related XDA forum.. the phone worked fine with a different network later on i accidently clicked the factory reset option.. now although the phone says its unlocked but i cannot see any network signal and the phone does not work on any sim card.
Pls can someone help
PS: I can switch on the phone and perform all other functions.
Try the one click unlock app thingy again, see how that pans out.
Also try this:
Go into settings > network and coonections > mobile networks > and manually choose your provider.
Mine is locked to my network also, but I'm now running Gingerbread. Any way I can get an unlock?

[Q] Doesn't recognize the SIM card after upgrading to ICS

Hello guys, i'm new in this forum.
I've recently bought a used Samsung Galaxy Note, factory unlocked. It came with the 2.3.6 version of android and it worked perfectly. But today, i've upgraded it to ICS by KIES (i'm a mac user) and it doesn't recognize my sim card (It says emergency calls only). The phone isn't blocked and it works perfectly, except from that.
I've tried factory resets and everything, and it doesn't work.
Then, i've downgraded it to 2.3.6 again and guest what: IT WORKS!
But then, i upgrade it again to ICS and it doesn't work again. It's not a sim card problem, i've tried another ones and they don't work neither.
Please help me asap, i'm in 2.3.6 now because that's the only way to call in my phone...
Regards from Sevilla, Spain.

There are some threads abt sim unlock in "general" section if I am not wrong..just go through it & u should be able to make your sim work on ICS..
Lol for galaxy s unlock in the play store

lol, when you boot in ICS do you get the sim pin unlock screen?
cause if you dont there is a fix for that which has nothing to with being locked.

[Q] i9000 Emergency Calls Only

Ok,
Before I get flamed... I've read 30 or posts about this.... both here and other forums, so here we go:-
It's a i9000 from Orange UK. I paid my £20 and got an unlock code off the internet, and it's stopped complaining about the O2 Sim in it now, but all I get is 'Emergency Calls Only'
I've tried stock roms, ezbase recovery, CM9 and CM10 and no matter what, I get 'Emergency Calls Only'
I checked:-
SIM connections are clean (and SIM in the right way round!)
IMEI matches the one on the phone.
Settings reports:-
GT-i9000
Android 4.2.2
Baseband I9000XXJVT
Kernel 3.0.78.g69c9cbc
Works fine if you stick in an Orange SIM :'(
Ready to bin it and buy a cheap Android from Tesco....
Go back to stock to test it. If it still doesnt work then you have been ripped off

Edit: don't bin it there is always a way to make it work xD
