Hey guys, I unlocked my Sprint HTC one with the Sim Unlocker app and followed directions as instructed but for some reason I cant get it to pick up service. I tried switching it to every radio combination (WCDMA, GSM- only etc) but no luck. Im running Rage's ROM and Im everything But S-off. I even flashed the initial radio to see if that it but to no avail, Im tring to using it on the ATT network.
Any input?
If there anyway that I can manually get the dialer to ask me for the network unlick code ? I have My SPC and Unlock code but I still havent input them into the device
I am having the same problem too. I have successfully sim unlocked my Sprint HTC One, dialed *#*#4636#*#* and changed the connection to GSM mode (only & perf). When I tried to go to tab "Available GSM networks", both option "Search networks" and "Select automatically" are grayed out. I was able to select ATT in the "Access point names" but the phone still won't connect to the network.
Anybody could shine any light on this problem?

Ok, here is what I did. First, do the #*#*4636*#*# and change to WCDMA PREFERRED mode, I know it sounds off, but do it. Next go to mobile network settings and change it to gsm mode. Reboot. Once rebooted go back to mobile network settings and go to Availavle GSM networks. and select the one you want, I use T-mobile. You MIGHT have to reboot again, sometimes I do, sometimes I dont.

This happened to me a few months ago. The phone is definitely capable and you will get LTE signals on the $60/month GoPhone plan.
1. First of all, call GoPhone customer support (611 from the phone) and confirm that they have your HTC One whitelisted for LTE. They're going to double check with you your phone's IMEI number (they can already see it, but will ask you for it anyway), and then confirmed that the phone is allowed to get LTE signals. They're also going to double check your APN setting and provide you with the appropriate entries for AT&T.
2. Reboot and see if you now get LTE signals. If you still don't get it, check whether your mobile network settings is set to GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto instead of GSM/WCDMA Auto or WCDMA Preferred (or maybe something else). If you don't see any LTE option, dial *#*#4636#*#* from your dialer, and in the first drop down box choose 'GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto' or anything with LTE just to make sure you can catch LTE signals at all. If you were able to find and switch to the setting you want, exit out, and go back to that menu, double checking if the setting sticks. If it does, reboot and try again.
3. Most people will get LTE signals after #1 above, while some were only able to get it after #2. However if you are unlucky like me, the LTE setting does not show up in mobile network and no matter what I do in the hidden menu, the setting won't stick (it's stuck on GSM/WCDMA Auto). I actually tried flashing a different radio at this point (a newer AT&T radio), but still... no LTE for me. What solved this finally for me is that I flashed a custom ROM (in my case it was ARHD 12.2). This enabled me to choose GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto under mobile network settings, and after that I was able to get LTE. It was great! :good:
Hopefully that helps. Good luck!
I bought a US Cellular Moto X off of Ebay. I unlocked the Moto X successfully since I receive the message each time I turn on my phone but no unlock menu popped open.
I have the correct T-Mobile SIM card, I am able to search the internet but I can't make calls, receive calls, and the same for texts. When I call, I receive the welcome to verizon wireless message and the texts do not go through.
Please help.

If you go to the main settings menu, then under Wireless & Networks, select More... and in the new screen that pops up, select Mobile networks, then Access Point Names, you'll have to find the APN settings for your carrier and add them manually if they don't show up when your SIM is inserted.

There is a way to access the APN list using a hidden programming menu. I don't know if the dialer shortcut will work on the version you have, but to try it, dial ##7764726 if it works and asks for a password, use 000000
One of the options should be APN controls. Hopefully T-Mobile US will be one of the APNs.
Is it possible that there might be a problem with your SIM card since some features work and others dont?

I'll try that.
It's US Cellular phone but I use T-Mobile SIM card, it was a brand new sim card. When I dailed, I kept getting "Welcome to Verizon Wireless"
Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes in a few hours.
According to US Cellular's webs site, their device supports CDMA/EVDO, since you are trying to use it on T-Mobile, you'll need to manually switch the phone to GSM/UMTS mode, or Global Mode. (App drawer -> Settings icon -> (under Wireless & Networks) More... -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode).
While in there under Mobile Networks, you'll also need to tap on Access Point Names... If the APN settings came down automaticlly from T-Mobile you need to select it. If no entry for T-Mobile exists, you'll need to find the settings and create one. (Google found them when I looked) NOTE: with Android JB 4.2.2 on my Verizon X (XT1060, also supports CDMA/EVDO in addition to LTE and GSM), the APN settings came down automatically. After upgrading to KitKat 4.4, I had to manually enter them.
When I setup my Verizon X for use with my T-Mobile SIM, I couldn't get MMS working for some reason, even though I was using the same APN settings as my T-Mobile Galaxy S3.
Also, keep in mind that T-Mobile uses 1700/2100 AWS for their HSPA+. As far as I know, only the T-Mobile version and GSM Developer edition supports this band, so you might not get "4G HSPA/HSPA+" with your X even after setting it up correctly. If you are lucky, and are in one of the areas where T-Mobile has completed re-farming their spectrum, you will get H+.
Good luck.

Based on that screen shot, your preferred network mode is still set to LTE/CDMA... that is wrong for T-Mobile. (SEE POST #12 of this thread!!) You want it to be GSM/UMTS or GLOBAL!! And you want to have the boxes checked for Data Enabled and Data Roaming.
You do not have options for Global Data Roaming Access and Access Point Names which I have on my Verizon Moto X, so that makes me question a few things....
In the first post you say you successfully unlocked your phone.. do you mean SIM Unlocked, or BootLoader Unlocked??
Also in the first post you mention seeing a message each time you reboot.. What exactly does the message say?
I ask because if you unlocked the boot loader, your phone could still be SIM locked and therefore not recognizing the T-Mobile SIM properly, and not giving you the Global options and APN options needed for GSM mode.

Thanks, made the changes.
It is BootLoader Unlocked not SIM unlocked.
The message I get is about the warning about the bootloader being unlocked.
I believe it is SIM locked still.

Yes, if not SIM unlocked, you're stuck. You need to get it SIM UNLOCKED.
Take a look at this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2422854 apparently some are using cellunlocker [.net] to get their X SIM unlocked, although they don't have US Cellular listed when I picked MOTO X from their list, so you might have to pick "Unknown" or "not listed" for the carrier.

you might have to pick "Unknown" or "not listed" for the carrier. Or email them and ask if they can do US Cellular. If they can't you'll need to find another site that can supply unlock codes.

Do I need my SIMcard to be active? My current phone doesn't take the nano sim card, I had to reactivate my old sim card.
H!, I have a HTC First AT&T factory unlocked, bought from US. I'm in Bangalore, India now and the phone worked great for the first month. lately it does not work for call, sms, data when in "GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto" mode (the signal bars just disappear and the phone goes out of reach). It works if i change network type to "GSM only" (in this setting i get call, sms and Edge). And the network type does not have the option "GSM/WCDMA auto". I tried all other options in the network type selection and it works ONLY in "GSM only" mode. Please help me solve this issue. In any of the case above, WiFi works fine.
NOTE: The phone is S-off and locked (can be unlocked easily), in an attempt to solve the same issue.
htc first
Buddy, similar situation like u. from bhubaneshwar , i ordered from us ebay.com. every time i insert reliance sim it shows me airtel sim and before doing custom rom i cant connect even mobile data. now i am on jmzbestsense all working good excep wifi and blutooth. i will fix it soon.but after custom rom also it showing airtel instead of reliance but all good. my phone's network vanishes at some time interval for 5 or 6 seconds , does your too.
GSM mode is a sim card. WCDMA is the type of network that a carrier like Sprint or Verizon uses here in the US. I don't believe the First supports WCDMA technology.
Sent from my HTC first using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Hmmm. WCDMA is an integrated data technology that works with GSM with part of the technology borrowed from CDMA. So most of the smart phones with 3G data capability will have GSM/WCDMA auto selection. Here the WCDMA is for either HSDPA or HSDPA+. If a phone is capable of LTE, then the options will be GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto selection. Well this selection is where I think my phone is goofed up. I vaguely remember playing with the data settings through "Battery Doctor" app just before it went for a toss.
@anilhotblood, yes if I select the "GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto" option my signal bars vanish but not for few seconds, it vanishes once and for all . as of now I'm using it with GSM only option with EDGE only (very slow data) .

Could some one help me to solve HTC first 3G problem. I bought HTC first a week back and it was working fine with 3g. But, suddenly stopped working. After some research it started working on Edge(2G) only. Please help to solve to connect 3G. And I am from Bangalore.
Greetings, im sure this is a common issue that ive seen, i received a HTC One M7 Sprint, it is sim unlocked BUT... can't select GSM/UMTS mode, it reverts to last used mode (if lte/cdma was selected and I choose gsm/umts, it reverts to lte/cdma...)
Is a NV problem, or radio problem? can be corrected?
Thanks a lot!

I've seen problems like this as well.. try flashing a custom Sense ROM and see if that solves your problem.

You have to override the network connection, assuming you are "sim-unlocked"
open the dial pad type *#*#4636*#*#
Tap "Phone Information"
scroll down to "Set preferred network Type:" & select one of the GSM options from the drop down menu
Check the GSM Service is "In Service"; if not repeat the last step and select another option
Goto Settings > Mobile Data> select GSM
Goto Available GSM Networks, it will attempt to connect and probably fail to find service providers, you can keep trying manually or select "don't ask again" and redo -GSM network provider will eventually popup
select the GSM network
goto Access Point names
edit access point to carrier
Doing the last parts from memory since I've removed my GSM SIM (Family Mobile) and GSM stuff won't show up on my settings
recently i have done with that. Im currently looking if it can be done with HTC Desire 816 (to convert to gsm, since it carries with cdma system). Maybe can be done, maybe not

Hi Everyone,
I got me a used MotoX, a customized version with a back cover and a badgers logo (go badgers!)
Anyway, it worked fine in the US on At&t, it worked fine in Europe, but now i'm in Israel and i can't get it to work on my network. I tried to put in a friend's SIM from another network and it worked just fine, it's just my company's SIM that does not work -> the SIM is recognized, the device is looking for a signal but fails, and tells me that "No Service | Selected network (GOLAN T) unavailable"
My device is an xt1053
The network is Golan Telecom - (google that for the wikipedia page, xda wouldn't let me post the link cuz i'm a n00b)
I have no idea what could be done, i don't even know where to start looking up this problem, or what should i even be looking for...
Any sort of information that might be remotely helpful would be appreciated!
thanks in advance..

Thanks a lot mate, i did try that. Nothing.
Do you reckon it might be related to the rom installed? i mean, is there a chance that it would work if i install a custom rom?
It's also possible your network might be blocking the phone's IMEI and/or your SIM. Check your sim with another phone. If sim works then check with your network provider on the status the IMEI (and ask them to unblock it if it is indeed blocked by accident).
You can get the number in settings -> About phone -> Status or you can just dial *#06#
