when i start the phone says emergency dial and welcome to T-Mobile and i can do nothing any???
thanks

Um, could you please post in a more readable form? Not to be disrespectful ,but i cant understand it quite well....You sure you have a SIM card? Do you have any signal at all? Or do you just have bars but no 2/g or 3/g network?

ok i buy G1 from uk ebay i'm from cyprus after unlock i have signal but only welcome from t-mobile and emergency dial and i can't coneinue to menu

Most likely a bad phone

If you insert your SIM card and its unlocked, it should say the name of your carrier regardless of what ROM you're using. Maybe a bad SIM card, try the SIM in another phone. If it doesn't work there, the phone might be broken.

lol all i was need is internet settings.............

Use superoneclick. Root the phone and then unlock it.

i dont need to have any simcard in the phone to use superoneclick? or to root even

Try this
#7465625*638*Unlock code#

i used BWolf56's advice and superoneclick (by CLShortFuse) rooted my captivate but didnt unlock it because i had already updated from eclair to froyo. I tried to hex edit using NovaChief's instructions on the thread

-(thread Posted by manojsuper) but this method was way over my head (im a noob.)
I used helroz's unlock without code program(galaxy_s unlock) and it worked with wifi connection without a sim. after unlocking i went to my phone dialer and pressed *#7465625# and it said unlocked. then i put my chinese sim in and it worked like magic.
i feel your pain. stick with it and you will get it done.
maybe my experience will be of some help. you can read my thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062078
dont forget to thanks the guys and donate to the developers of the programs.
also i think you need busybox and wifi connection to use helroz's program which is fricken awesome. and BWolf56, thanks again.

u dont need an AT&T sim...even i opened my captivate here in India (no AT&T)...i booted it up...rooted it...used one click root and one click unlock...it gave me the code...as simple as that!

where did you get one click root and one click unlock? ive tried the super one click and it said pass word blocked

There's an app on the market called "Galaxy_S Unlock". It works without a SIM. I just used it on the refurb I got last night. It's a 1012 build, that came with UCKB2. Worked like a champ. I put an old T-Mobile SIM card in it to test it and it picked up a signal and showed T-Mobile in the notification area.

no problem Out of interest , which method did you use?

I used both of them, and i got same unlock pin code in either case. I think that second one (one with pushing .sh file) is a little bit easier to read. Greetings, and thank you once again.

I used both methods also and got same code. now if there was a way to unlock the device once and not have to unlock everytime a sim is changed that would be awesome.

Solar... one you input a simunlock code it should permanently enable any sim to be used?
That tested on mine, i have 4 different sims with other providers and they all worked and after seeing this they still do

I tried to follow the instructions however I never got the unlock code or I am just being dumb when I use method 2 my results are identical to your 2nd screenshot,
there is no 3rd line of text?
Using the first option what I see is very similar to your first screenshot with Vodafone instead of O2. But again no code that I can see.
I have tried inserting simcards from t-mobile and O2 however I never get asked to enter a code. Not that I have a code to enter, I wish I could work out where I am going wrong.

IF you dont get asked for a code to put in when putting in other sim cards , should be unlocked... where did you get it from?

The phone is a friends who got it from someone it was on vodafone rru and had the branding on startup and shut down, before I rooted it and put on CWM and Nameless Rom, but when I try my t-mobile sim card it doesn't get a signal for when, unfortunately I do not know if this was an issue as it wasn't supplied to me with a sim card.
I will contact my friend and see if he can supply me his sim card so I can test it. Hopefully as you say it is unlocked. Not sure when i will get the sim card to be able to test it though.

hmmm when you say doesnt get signal.... i wonder if its because its a vodafone branded desire C... it will have everything for Voda hard wired in the device... and wont have any t-mo APNs etc. TMo arent exactly friendly when it comes to APN info unlike other providors like O2 & Voda
I wonder if that is the issue is that no data APNs are selected....

If you want to get your unlock code, you need to flash a Custom Rom, NAmeless For Example.
Once thats been done, you can install busybox and follow the instructions and you get your code.

i managed to succesfully unlock my Desire C
its a stock phone, bought it from Asda UK - on T-Mobile network
although it doesent have any t-mobile branding or carrier apps or boot up logo like most phones have
after unlocking my bootloader and using r1-superuser Root, it went very smooth
but one thing i did notice that seems odd, my IMEI is different in the command shell
to what is displayed in the phone
xxxxxxxxx584298 - displayed from phone
xxxxxxxxx5842901 - displayed on the command shell

[Q] Remove Sprint Activation

Hello,
i have a Sprint HTC One from a Friend, he bought it in the US not knowing it was Simlocked and took it to Germany. He gave it to me to make it possible to use it here with our T-Mobile Network. I have already being able to remove the Simlock but there is one thing i cant remove, its the damn Activation Process from Sprint. The Phone can be used now but its anoying every time you start the divice. Also its not possible to flash a AOSP Rom because it doesnt let me get trough the setup process without activating. Is there any possibility to ged rid of the Activation Process? I didnt find this in the Forum but when there is a Thread about this already pls give me a link. Thank you!

If u flash an aosp it is possible to bypass activation. Since the activation is part of the gapps all u have to do is flash an aosp then boot and then when ur in just boot back to the recovery and flash the gapps and u should be good.

The device doesn't have to be initialized to be flashed. You can get the bootloader unlocked using the developer token and then fastboot flash in the ROM you want.

No, he wants to have it SIM Unlocked to use with GSM carriers over in Germany. He hates how it attempts to activate on Sprints network every time he boots up. He doesn't want that. He has no issues unlocking bootloader. All he needs to do is install ROM through recovery but do not install GApps until setup is complete.

Okay, i have already flashed other Roms but the Sprint Roms have the activation and with the aosp i cant get Signal in the german Networks..

That, I believe is merged into the Phone.apk but it may not be.

[Q] No SIM-Card detection available after encryption

I'm using the Paranoid Android Final 4.41 Version on my SGS+
When I start the build in encryption, which encrypts the data partition the GSM Modem isn't working after the encryption process came to success.
I reproduced this twice. The phone doesn't detect the SIM Card anymore.
I'd like to post this as a bug report in the right SGS+ AP Developer Thread, but I'm not allowed to do so, because I'm a new user.
Maybe someone reading this here can answer this?

No expert available, regarding this topic?

Is your phone SIM-locked?

No SIM-Lock.

What does it say under Baseband version?

I9001xxkph

Did you try with a different SIM?

Unfortunately I don't have another card. But thanx for your help. I've given up. Instead I'll protect my phone with a roundhousekick!

What does this mean? It is definitely not locked to the phone. Bought separately.

It means that your device works only with one carrier.
To see if your device is locked try a SIM card from a different operator. If it doesn't work then your device is locked.
If you want to unlock it read this.

Thanks for your description. It is definitely not locked. The phone was bought with no Sim Card and the card was bought separately. Other carriers are working.
Any other opinions?

Did you remove the SIM card before encryption?
Also are you using a SIM PIN?

Tried both: left in and remove. I am using a Sim Pin
