I have unlocked and XDA2 - Radio version 1.05.12 using the earlier system as the latest unlocker would not work.
Everything seems fine after entering the unlock code & with a Vodafone sim in place the signal strength is fine but when a call is made the call seems to dial and immediately disconnect.
Any help gratefully received
Unable to use phone after unlocking
Exactly same behavior on MDA3 from Cingular. Got the unlock code from Cingular. The code was accepted. Entered T-Mobile SIM but then phone will not make or receive calls. Even after putting original Cingular SIM it will not work.
Inserted another Cingular SIM and attempted call. It starts working. However, if I put T-Mobile SIM it would go back to same state.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have the same problem!
Please somebody, any ideas? I have a dead radio now.
Hello everyone,
I have this very annoying problem with my x01HT after using the imei-check unlocker.
I have a Softbank post Dec.2 device and as soon as imei-check released the unlocker(M3100v4bUnlock.exe) I bought it and unlocked my set. According to the software the unlocking was successful and after that I had the chance to try it with a DoCoMo SIM card and it was working very nice. The real problem came when I tried to use SIM cards from GSM networks. I have tried both a Bulgarian (Globul) SIMcard and one in Thailand (True). Both GSM SIM cards when I start the phone say SIM lock, emergency numbers only, and I cannot use my phone with them. I can still use the roaming with the Softbank card, but that of course is not what I want.
Has anyone encountered something like that?
I would appreciate your help.
Thanks.
No matter what radio I upgrade to I have no service on my 8525, some radio roms even say no service even when the sim card isn't in. other roms just continually search and then eventually say no service. It is not the sim card, it works perfectly in my other cingular phones, and my device is unlocked anyways.
Does anyone know what the problem could be and how I would fix it? it is not the OS rom, it happens with both WM5 and WM6, everything else works with the phone, well actually my microphone wasn't working for cellular calls (when i still could make them) it would only work for the voice recorder
when I used the check image command in mtty, i got this
Cmd>checkimage
IPL CRC checksum = 0x50C4A5F0
SPL CRC checksum = 0xC27E0E42
CE CRC checksum = 0xF21F01B9
ExtROM CRC checksum = 0xB924B6BA
Radio Image CRC checksum = 0xB845CC64
Cmd>
BTW, why does it say Cmd instead of usb, what does this mean?
I got the same CRC in my Radio (version is 1.51.00.10):
IPL CRC checksum = 0x80C8FEE6
SPL CRC checksum = 0x327DEB48
CE CRC checksum = 0xE6F4D57A
ExtROM CRC checksum = 0xA9AB06C9
Radio Image CRC checksum = 0xB845CC64
And I got no problems with SIM. Maybe it's a hardware related problem (antenna or something like this).
When you flash a radio rom, does it change everything that has to do with the cellular connection? or could something have been changed that wasn't supposed to be like how people were losing their wifi because the eeprom chip was getting erased due to OS flashing
Iv'e given up, i've flashed countless radios, and they all say no service, even when there is a sim card in it, and for some reason it doesnt even say when there isn't a sim card in there. Does anyone want to buy it off me?

Scratch that, how about I pay the first person that helps me to fix it on my own $30 via paypal, and you will help me over AIM (---------), so no one can "copy" someone else.
It seems that the only radio that recognizes when I do and do not have a sim in is the 1.16 one, and even then it has no service, although it ocassionaly searches, only to say no service once again.
Also, Sim Manager, and the Phone under settings will not open
Check with your provider that the IMEI of your phone has not been blocked. You should test this with a sim card from another network, but also it's worth phoning up your provider and asking them to check if your IMEI has been blocked as it doesn't propagate to all networks instantly.
This happened to me with similar symptoms, fortunately it occurred as a mistake of T-Mobile when they were blocking the current phone of the person who owned my phone originally.
my radio too would not connect.
also my mtty.exe would not connect,
i put the phone in bootloader mode and open mmty.exe, select US to connect but get error says "usb port can not open"?
I have a white Softbank X01HT version of Hermes.
Since the OS is Japanese i cannot read but i am a WM user already so i could find my way through.
I turned it on and did not let the ext rom install, also Also, i ran the Hermes Unlocker V3a.
It said Unlocked SIM and Cuper CID unlocked.
Also, i checked the Windows folder on the device and could not see a file names upd.log, so i assume
the ext rom did not install.
Now i put my sim it does not ask for an Unlock code so i guess phone's unlocked. But i got an USIM screen
asking for passsword i guess in japanese, which i think is the vodafone software lock, so to remove it i ran
the file from imei-check.co.uk and i think it worked although my phone had frozen showing a large unlock icon
on screen, so i soft reset and this time i dont see the usim screen again with my non vodafone sim inserted.
But neither does it get a gsm signal, all i could see is an "exclamation !" sign besides the signal icon.
I then did the HardSPL v7 Flashing and then upgraded my radio to 1.43, still no luck with GSM signal.
What to do?
Shall i flash to a English ROM? if yes then which one?
Plss help.
Thanks,
Michelle
I put in a t-mobile sim, and its recognized, and I get a couple of bars, however if i turn off the radio it will not let me turn it back on, and sometimes, randomly i will get no service, normally where i have full bars.
also, i have to softreset the phone to get a signal no matter how long i wait
Radio Worked Now
Okay i was not sure what it was but i ran the Hermes Unlocker like 3 times and on the third attempt it worked, now i can see radio signals and make/recv. calls.
Wonder what caused this, may be i made some mistake running the unlocker first time around but even then phone should have asked me for an unlock code if sim unlock did not happen, but i am happy it works now.
But i dont think it would help you cos yours i guess is an 8525 and you are on ATT network so you dont require unlocking, but no harm in trying if you wish.
How do you usee mtty.exe?
would not connect for me - i put the phone in bootloader mode and open mmty.exe, select US to connect but get error says "usb port can not open"?
Can you write me the steps for this pls?
I just want to know what my Boot loader version is.
Even though you have bars on T-Mo, make sure you can make calls etc - when my IMEI was blocked, o2 would report no service, but T-Mobile gave me a signal. However, I could not make calls on text with the T-Mo sim despite having signal.

I wish it fixed the problem, I have to turn my phone off during school, and its a hassle to have to reset it every time I lose service, and after i turn the radio off. Also I called cingular and they did not block my IMEI, and I tried a different cingular sim and it didn't work. Thats very odd, maybe it has something to do with the band.
This seems hopeless. Does anyone have an estimate of how much it would cost to have HTC repair my phone?

Hi!
I have CID unlocked my 3100 (already SIM unlocked) and I flashed WM 61 Pro V1g everything is working fine but the problem is it's working only, on the one SIM card I used while unlocking the phone. Any other card I put in (even cards from the same carrier) it gives me "SIM failure" so normaly I can't turn on the phone function. Can anybody help me at what could be the cause.
P.S.: I have tried flashing other ROMS but it's the same thing on every one.
I have tried to CID unlock the phone with another card in but it's the same.
Ex Cingular 3100 now WM 6.1 Standard
OS 5.2.19202 by pArtizAn
Radio 4.1.13.34_02.79.30
Hi! Again...
To clear something up I did tried a different Radio and now I can use 2 of 3 providers in Switzerland (Orange and Swissscom) but the 3rd one Sunrise (the one I am using) want work. I tried two sifferent Sim cards from that provider and they both gave me a Sim failure.
Could that have to do something with the voltage of the card or is it something else.
Please I need help, cause I realy want to use this phone but I can't just change providers because of the phone.
Help!!! Please.

i had the same problem on Qtek 8500 with new Beeline SIM-cards. The problem was solved by changing that new SIM card to older.
Thanks for the answer but my SIM card is from 2003 so any older would not be an option. I just thought it had something to do with the radio or the ROM and maybe could be fixable but thank you anyway and keep up the good work, the WM6.1 Pro is great!!!!
P.S.:Kosovo was and will always be Serbia.
A friend of mine had one of those disposable phones & I took the sim out and put it into my unlocked 8500 to see what would happen. I got the same error, sim card failure so it might be that while your phone is unlocked, your carrier may have locked the sim. Just my .02 on that one.
I got unlock code from Orange for the Orange HTC Mozart. It did accept the code and accepted the non-Orange SIM but showing no signal. I have tried with other non-Orange SIMs but still no service (no signal) but as soon as I put my orange sim back in, it worked fine for both 3G and 2G signals.
Does this mean that the code provided only did the SIM unlocking function but not the carrier unlocking bit. BTW, although orange mentioned in the instruction that phone will ask for code two times, but in my case it only asked once.
Orange seems to fail even to understand the problem. any tip / trick?

Hi,
You can tell them to give you a new one cause is needed for abroad use, they have to
Probably the code was not a proper one
Regards, ansar
thanks Ansar, I reset to factory setting twice and it now all working, with any carrier SIM and for 2G/3G. I think some thing was just stuck after accepting the code. but any way it's working now
thanks.
