Hello, I have a Xperia Z and my phone provider gave me false Desimlock code. So more attempts can to UNLOCK to another operator.
Is there ine solution to UNLOCK the phone?
Thank you

What happen when starting the phone without simcard?

Good evening and thank you for answering. Without a SIM card the phone starts and I have access to everything. No blocking.

[Q] Unlocked xperia Z1 network locked because of flashing Branded Firmware

i have a Sony Xperia Z1. the model number is C6906. i bought it directly from Sony and its Unlocked . it was working on every sim card. But i flashed the C6906 firmware of the other branded network provider. now it's network locked with that network provider. it only works with the sim card of that network. when i put any other sim card, the dialog box appears and it tells to insert network unlock code. when i contact that network, they told me to get their sim card and use it for 90 days. then they will provide me the unlock code. why should i have to use their sim card for 90 days to get the unlock code, because my phone is already factory unlocked from sony. i went to 3rd party websites which provide network unlock codes. but they didn't find the unlock code for my phone, because that phone is not present in the database of that network provider. that means i can only get the unlock code from that network code by using their sim card for 90 days. but that network is not working in my area. please suggest how can i make it unlock again as it was before ? i will be very thankful
flashing FTF files will not affect the SIM lock status of a phone.
It will neither lock an unlocked one nor will it unlock a locked one.

i flashed the firmware of Rogers for my unlocked xperia z1 C6906, which was Branded Firmware. my phone was working fine with all sim cards. but few days ago i put the sim card of rogers, the phone automatically restart and also install some rogers network apps in phone menu. after that when i put other sim card, the network unlock code dialogue box appears. it means that phone got locked with rogers now. the rogers technicians said me if you flashed rogers branded firmware, then if you ever put rogers sim card in it, then device will locked to rogers even if its unlocked from sony.
well, not sure how that works as its the first time I ever heard that happening. Not that I don't trust operators but I often find they do not know what they are talking about when it comes to the kind of things we do here at XDA
But, if what you say is true, flashing another FTF will NOT help.

can xda developers develop any software for that ? so that the network unlock code dialog box disappear and phone reset with original factory unlock setting

that is not really what we do here. there are loads of websites for that, and rogers say they will give you an unlock code in 90 days anyway.

First you need to purchase a SIM unlock code. (or get it from your operator)
Than put a SIM card from an another network in your phone and when asked for a code type it in.
There are a lot of websites selling unlock codes. In my country (Croatia) the operator is obliged to give you an unlock code if you request it.

How to SIM Unlock?

Hey guys,
I have an AT&T M7 that is off contract and obtained an unlock code directly from AT&T.
Now, how do I go and SIM unlock my device?
Any help/suggestion is much appreciated.
Thanks

If you already have your unlock code thats a good thing. Now to use it, you must shut your phone down, insert a foreign sim card (from a different carrier than AT&T, borrow a friend's sim card if necessary), boot it up and you should get prompted to enter the sim unlock code. Once done your phone is sim-unlocked and will accept any carrier sim card. Your phone must be running the stock rom btw (or a stock-ish rom, will not work on Cyanogenmod for example but should work on ARHD).
