Anyway what is the error? No signal? Sim undetected? What else?
Pls tell us more....
And imported device will never be blocked in any country (Except stolen device...)

It is showing no signal

Nobody will help you here with changing IMEI. It's against xda rules and there's a very good reason for it.

Hi, I bought an imported phone as well but mine is working. Are you trying to use it on GSM or CDMA networks?

XDA experts where are you nobody helping

The phone is detect the SIM card or not? If not, then your phone sim slot has been faulty (loose or bad contact prong). If yes, you can use search network function.....

Okay. I'm sorry I can't be of much help. Actually, I bought my phone (Sony Xperia Z1) from China, and it works perfectly here in India. Dunno why your imported one isn't working as the C6903 model of yours is compatible with Indian networks too Anyway, keep at it, I'm sure you'll find a way

Who has received the HD7 8107 update?

I have T-Mobile USA and have not received it. T-Mobile USA says 7720 is the latest for the HD7, yet some folks say they have it. Do you have it, and did you force it?

...not even the two guys who claimed to have it haven't posted yet....?
Got it. Forced it. Followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415
Got tired of waiting. It was easy and the phone works fine.
Also forced mine, but can't find the article. I'm not unlocked.

Ok, all you need to do is read the rest of the article, especially update two where it states if your phone and setting no longer work to flash the language pack in the same way.

I think it does an auto back up. it's the first step that takes so much time. Not sure how to back it up from there.

That is because you are not able to force the Firmware update that is pushed with this - it is the firmware update that fixes the MAC address issue. Surprising that T-Mobile US are not pushing the update for just this reason, pretty sure it is against regulations to have the MAC address changing!
I received a replacement HD7 and the tmobile rep swears the latest software is on it, I will post back shortly.....

I suspect it will be latest available on T-Mobile network, ie 7720!
Just got 8701 without forcing but got a zune notification instead. Bootloader upped too. Surprised.
Unlocked TMO HD7.
TMOUS updating the HD7 today finally. Got a total of 3 updates. 7740, then 8107, followed by an update from HTC. Not sure what the HTC update did. Anyone have any ideas?
Its the firmware fix that fixes the MAC address changing on reboot...

[Q] Is it possible to unlock a sim locked HTC ONE?

The title says it all.
I just want to buy the ONE from O2 in UK and use it in another country.
Any help would be appreciated.
Yes, although I and others on T-Mobile have had difficulties but o2 should be fine.

No Service Mode S3 Mini Verizon

Hi, i got a Verizon S3 Mini, i want to change the CDMA to LTE but when i put the any command (like *#06#) the phone says "mobile network not available"
I need help
Why would you want to change it to LTE? The S3 Mini doesn't support it anyway.

This is most likely because in some AOSP roms like CM there could be that this menus are disabled.
You need to search for the setting somewhere else or you could try to download pimpmyrom here:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androguide.pimpmyrom&hl=de
And then search for the function "enter device hidden menu". This should most likely work on all roms!
Good luck!

I'm not sure if it's safe to flash another firmware on verizon phones. but if it is, then you could flash a firmware from www.sammobile.com
This will most likely do the trick! then you could access the menu! :good:

Okay here is a thing that will hopefully get you back to your phone
- put the battery out and connect the charger
- insert the battery back inside and wait a few seconds
- disconnect the charger
########################################################
- press the download mode combo
- you should hopefully enter download mode!!
- get the verizon stock firmware from sammobile (for that at least your phone hopefully works like before)
- flash it
Good luck
by the way, i recently heard that there is a app to force lte mode you should search the playstore

if the phone is bootlooping after flashing then use the "charger plugin method" like before and then press the recovery button combo to enter recovery and wipe everything (2 options)

AT&T purchased/branded N6 are carrier locked. If device is paid off/ purchased outright, then you can request an unlock code from AT&T for free. Otherwise you can purchase from several 3rd party vendors for about $25.
ATT Nexus 6 comes network locked. Once unlocked, should work fine on any Canadian carrier. I suggest WIND MOBILE.
