Phone doesn't accept any SIM cards

I tried to unlock bootloader by this tutorial -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1267273) and unlocked successfully but something gone wrong and after unlocking my X8 doesn't accept any SIM card... so I lock again bootloader and use SEUS but it won't help, my phone still doesnt accept any SIM. What to do now?
EDIT: mobile is simlocked (if it can help)

i thin you should sim unlock it via imei or anyting that can sim unlock and it will accept sim cards

ok so I have found problem... that *** S1 tool said me, that i have locked bootloader but i haven't... so i locked bootloader and everything is OK now

[Q] Did it work for you - X8 sim unlock?

Ok, I saw many people asking how to unlock our X8 on all networks and I tried it on four Xperia X8 phone's and it's true, bootloader unlock succesfully unlocked X8 on all SIM cards. Yes, it asks for SIM Unlock code but I've just pressed dismiss button and it connected succesfully on other networks. I've unlocked bootloader with Flashtool v 0.5.3 and it worked on all (2.1, 2.2 &2.3) ROM's. Please try it and answer if you've succesfully unlocked your phone.

Why the hell do we ned this if unlocked bootloader provide us x8 working on all sim cards...

I have unlocked bootloader.
in flashtool help->about it says x10 Flashing Tool, Version 0.2.9.1, Java Version 1.6.0_24, OS Version 5.1, By Bin4ry & Androxyde
if that is of any importance
I have T-mobile locked X8.
I try to put VIP SIM card but it just won't connect to network. when I manually select VIP I get some massage. don't remember what exactly, but about forbidden network or something like that.
So I guess you are just lucky, cause it doesn't work for me.
or perhaps somebody else could write if this works for him. which networks, which flashtool, how did you unlock ...

The only time i have ever seen this is on phones that already have sim unlock. When you turn on your phone on a sim free phone which already had been unlocked it asks (EVERY TIME) to enter your network unlock code even do its already unlocked to all networks. The flash tool doesn't unlock your network

If you UNLOCK BOOTLOADER with FLASHTOOL, your mobile network will work on all operators! But if you unlock bootloader with msm7227 you'll not have signal!!

I l 'I unlocked the flashtool but I signal with a single operator ... why?

Oh,
I just realized what you wanted to say.
Bootloader can be unlocked with flashtool and, if done so, SIM unlocks too.
That's a huge thing, and should be made sticky, if so.
and what about us that unlocked bootloader before?
do we have to reflash stock kernel and relock bootloader? or can we just try to unlock with flashtool already unlocked bootloader?
I don't need my SIM unlocked now, but it would be nice to know. So, if somebody tries it please post how you did it.

I unlocked my bootloader (With msm7227), but its not sim unlocked. I have a custom kernel and custom rom, but still can't use my phone.
Any ideas?

sorry If I open this thread lot of months later, How can i unlock bootloader of this x8 with flashtool? these are the features of flashtool
Flash original Images (Android 1.6, 2.1, 2.3 Images)
Root your phone
Install Recovery, Busybox, custom kernels
Clean your Rom (remove /system/apps apps of your choice) (Be careful, unless you really know what you do, do not modify the default list. This can make your phone stuck at the SE Logo)
Clear dalvik cache
Optimize (install of JIT v2) (Disabled in 0.4, will readd it as a plugin for 2.1 phones only)
Customize (installs apps found in the custom/apps folder of the flashtool)
Clean uninstalled (remove any references to system apps removed in the Clean (root needed) step)
Edit any text file on the device
Rebrand your device

Which one is for me? Thank you!

1. connect phone to pc
2. enable debugging
3. you must have latest flashtool
4.launch flashtool
5. go to "Plugins" at top and click unlock bootloader.
Good luck!

[Q] Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 (E15i) Unlock

Hello,
Someone gave me a Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 E15i and I'm wondering how to unlock it. I was thinking that it's easy to unlock because unlocking an iPhone is really easy and free of charge most of the time. Is it also possible with Sony Ericsson phones specifically the Android-based ones?
I did some research about the unlock code stuffs and a money must be used to use it but is there an alternative for that? Like is it possible to completely unlock a phone using a software and just the USB cable that comes with the phone?
I badly need to use a different network on that phone. Please help me out.
Thanks.

I unlocked bootloader and after booting x8 sometimes it shows me message ´Enter network unlock code´ i chose dismiss and after that i use unlocked phone (I can put any sim card and it works, just click on dismiss that`s all )

so let me just get this straight, i can just simply unlock the bootloader and not to install any custom firmwares etc? just unlock it and the phone will definitely be unlocked? like i can use any sim cards?
another thing, upon exploring this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=846 it contains lots of custom firmwares as well as http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/sony-ericsson-xperia-x8 <-- i didn't understand it. is it a custom OS?
also is it possible to install the latest version of android in an x8? like the gingerbread or the ice cream sandwich?
and what happens when something went wrong when unlocking the phone?

My recommendation is to unlock the bootloader, root x8 and install a custom kernel and ROM. Of course you'll be able to install ICS or any other custom firmware (I use 1.1 firedroid together with Alfs v07-ICS kernel). Unlocking the bootloader you will be able to use any SIM card.And if anything goes wrong flash your phone using SEUS and in addition have at least 10 topics to unbrick yours mobile phone.

Unlocking bootloader unlocks SIM also only if you do it with Flashtool. And it was not clearly confirmed that it works every time.

no way, i have unlocked with flashtool and netlock are active

superoneclick
I have an e15a, 12w02.
I was wondering if superoneclick works for all versions, I read somewhere that anything after 11w35 gets bricked, but I couldn't find evidence if superonclick is a fix all for root.
So, will superoneclick give me root access for my e15a 12w02?

Rooting the ROM does not have anything to do with the hard brick danger related to boot loader unlock.
So yes, it's perfectly safe to root your ROM with SuperOneClick.

unlocking bootloader
So I'm guessing that the 12w02 will be bricked when I use the SE tweak tool to attempt to unlock the bootloader?
This means that I can only install custom roms using the xRecovery tool and not any of the newer more awesome that requires a different kernel (gingerbread rom etc?)

Hi! I know this post is veeeeery old, but I have this little [noob] problem heheh..... I changed the basebands (from 06 to15 as directed to change the ROM), flashed oxydo zfc3 (latest) and installed this ROM ZenceFil Veda (Which looks great!).... But I still have the sim locked!! How do I unlock it?! I just got this phone and I really need to use another network !!! Please , can somebody help me???!!:crying::crying::crying:

[Q] unlocked xperia but still doesn't work

Hello,
I have unlocked xperia x8 but it won't work with other sim cards. S1 tools shows "2r small as it should show as phone unlocked, but if i try insert new card it cant connect to the network. anyone can help ? :crying: i used msm7227 to unlock and if i try semtools it shows it is allready unlocked, I want apologize if it is already answered but i searched forum and nothing helped.

msm7227? is it the bootloader you've unlocked?
Just because i don't doesn't mean i can't.

Flash stock 2.1 and lock bootloader, everything will be fine.. You have probably used wrong file or you have simlock.
