It could be a problem with the SIM unrelated to unlocking.
Does the SIM work in another phone? Does the SIM that came with the XDA2 still work? Have you tried another hard reset?
i tryed different SIM cards! the sim cards working fine! The original card not working anymore! I flashed the 1.6.0 in it now and the same radio stack seems not working fine! Can we rewrite the GSM settings again (maybe corupted)?

So you also re-flashed it with a different ROM? I suspect that the problems are more related to this than due to the unlocking. The unlocking uses the official interface and no unorthodox methods are used to unlock it. I've had no reports from anyone that the phone did not work afterwards or even that the unlock code did not work. It is important to consider all aspects that could have influence else you might be hunting for the wrong solution.
Don't know what is realy rong with it. I locke it back (AT%HTCLOCK...) and now radio at least saying Searching (with same firmware). Do u have a full gsm backup (tunning as well?) maybe is something messed there.
I use ICQ or MSN or Yahoo messager can u please PM with ur details saw we can chat live?
Thank's
Try to change the band
HOW?
Radio does not work after unlock
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.
It is MDA 3 from Siemens for Cingular with Radio version 1.02.10
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.
After around a half year of use,
today, the 13th of november afternoon, I lost my signal.
I can see the G symbol, but I cant see the bars for signal.
It says, no signal. I tried to change the band to gsm, I tried different radio roms, new mary rom v6, nothing helps. I even hard restarted the phone, without effect.
Can somebody help, advice? What went wrong?
If I search for networks, it finds all the UK networks.
Thanks a lot
Peter
SIM card still valid? No unpaid bills?
Have you tried another SIM card?
yes. the strange thing is, when I try to use the T-mobile sim, it works. if I try to use another o2 card, it doesnt. if I try to use my o2 card, which is not working in another mobile it is working..
like if o2 has blocked my phone, but not the sim. it is possible somehow?

My friend, I have no idea Try to flash everything again, CID unlock, hardspl, uspl, radio rom...
I tried new ROM - Mary, 2 radio roms and I did went across the unlocking process. what else can I do? what is cid unlocking?
thanks,
peter
I even tried to call o2, but they told me, as my mobile phone was bought on ebay, they can not check, if it is being blocked..
really silly.
and I am desperate..
Probably got a faulty SIM.
Some phones are locked to one provider's cards only. If you want to use another provider's SIM card, you'll need to unlock it. This is called CID unlock.
Locked phones will also not permit you to flash different ROMs - they stop at 99% and hang.
Since you can flash Mary ROM, then a likely cause is a faulty SIM card, or faulty SIM connector in the phone.
PS - make sure you use the appropriate radio for the appropriate ROM. Mary ROM cannot use radio higher than 1.64
OK. So the situation is as follows:
I have bought this phone on ebay and it was locked and branded to T-mobile. I unlocked it using the CID unlock code from this forum.
I put a new radio rom and about 2 ROMS. I was running the last rom for about 3 months. 2 days ago, all of a sudden, I lost my signal. The G symbol is still there and the phone does not say, the sim is not there, so I assume, that the contacts are ok. I tried other sims, 1 O2, and one TalkTalk. Both are not working. I tried a T-mobile sim and that is working. Is it possible, that T-mobile somehow relocked the phone remotely????
I tried to unlock it twice with the same procedure, but without success. What am I doing wrong? I am really desperate.
Thanks a lot,
Peter
It's unlikely that they could have relocked your phone remotely. I don't think that can even be done, as the "free" method of unlocking requieres patching parts of the flash, wich is not done "over the air".
But, they may have locked your phone, as if it was stolen, through IMEI. Is the seller on ebay still active? any compliants on his votes?
Anyway, for checking everything out...
Try this:
1. Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355730 and download "sspl-1.16-nike.zip" and "hardspl-1.15mfg-nike.zip"
Uncompress the ssp-1.16-nike.zip and copy it to the phone through activesync.
2. Run the program from the phone, it will show the tricolor screen.
3. Flash hardspl-1.15mfg-nike using customruu and wait until it reboots the phone.
4. Take the battery out, put it back in and press and hold camera and power button until it gets to the bootloader again (it should say hardspl 1.15 bla bla bla)
5. Download the unlocker from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395945
6. Download, for example, this modded radio (it doesn't specifically need this, but I had troubles with other radios, but none with this): http://www.4shared.com/file/52403515/681b77e5/RUU_Nike_Radio_1582123_25653004S_Modded.html
7. Flash that radio using customruu, and when the phone reboots take the battery out again, back in, and enter the bootloader again.
8. Now, go to step1 of the unlocker and flash the patched radio. Once it's done, the phone will reboot. Go back to the bootloader (battery out, in again, camera+power). Disable usb connection on activesync.
9. While in bootloader, take the usb cable out, wait some seconds, and put it back in.
10. Go to step2 of the unlocker and run it. If it needs more than 30 seconds to tell you that the phone is unlocked, something is possibly going wrong. In that case, disconnect it, take the battery out and in again, enter the bootloader again, pull in the usb cable, take it out, back in again, and retry step 2.
11. Once you get it unlocked, flash back the radio you downloaded before. Now it should be completely unlocked.
12. If it's not unlocked, the phone should say invalid sim when booting with another poviders' sim, but if it is, it should only ask for the pin and once enter, boot normally...
hope this helps!
PS: When you put the tmobile sim and gets signal.. does it let you call? only send sms? nothing at all? Normally, when a phone is blocked through imei, it can simply be rejected by the foreign network, or can stay connect but won't let you call, but let you send sms... could you check that also?
Hi!
Thanks for your post.
I have done everything again and nothing helped.
I went to T-Mobile, there they advice me to go to Vodafone and by vodafone I asked, if they can not check, if my phone was not blacklisted.
They put in the IMEI number and the system told me, that it WAS BLACLISTED
I called up the guy, which sold it to me from ebay He told me, he will check the number as well and he needs to go for another guy, which sold it to him and after that, he will give me hopefully the money back..
So, fingers cross and thanks for the help!

I have the Vario as well and I wanted to get it sim unlocked.
But before i started paying for it, i decided to give it a try with a vodafone simcard. IT WORKED!
So next i tried an Orange sim card and it worked as well.
I received it without any simlock.
However, i did have to do HardSPL before I could use custom roms.

Hello,
I am contacting you because I have a problem with my phone TG01.
In fact, I had the intelligence (French irony) to put a code into the phone to prevent change sim card, for example if I were to lose it.
However, I recently changed mobile operator and SIM card accordingly. The phone is unlocked, I'm doing the procedure with Orange at the time. However, I do not remember the code I put in place to prevent change sim card.
If you have an idea to make my phone work again, she is welcome
I said that I have tried new ROM and also I reinstalled the original ROM ... Nothing changes ...

If you changed the PIN from default i.e. 1234 or something similar, then all you can do is go to one of the websites where you can pay and get this unlocked.
However, one thing to try before that is - call the operator whose SIM you used first. That operator help you unlock that SIM LOCK and then you can re-insert the new SIM. It might also be helpful if you try and ask your new operator if they can help (highly unlikely!)
