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 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.
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.
Ok quick run down of what I done so far.
Received phone on Thursday at work. Phone was locked to Orange UK
I came here and found out how to get unlock code ([email protected]) :-D
So while I waited for the unlock code to come through I thought I would change the rom.
I flashed the phone with the rom from the following post.
[ROM][ENG] TG01/T01A Debranded UK + Manila Sense 2.5 v0.011 (14/04/2010) More RAM!!
Flash went fine.
I just got my unlock code so inserted my sim (02 UK).
My problem is I have no unlock request and the attenna icon constantly has 3 dots animating after it and when I click it, it says "searching..."
Any ideas?

Where did you buy it? I think you have the same problem as other guys. But lets check first. Try to put other sim cards and let see what hapening.
I got off someone on ebay. Came with all original box etc...
I will try with another sim.

This will give you the original ROM (Orange branded (unless you use the Italian one!!)), but you'll need your IMEI to download.
Will it still work even though I have windows 6.5 installed?

That is the official site and you can chose one of them. There are fr,en,it,sp and gr languages.
Just need your IMEI to download it.
Your work but have modified internal registers. So I am not sure if coming from there your problem or because the ex owner did something with the radio. I have
post that I say, you can put more than 3 times your unlocking code, but I don't know how many times you can put it. May be 10 or 100 or ~ times, now buddy know exactly. Personally I put it something like 15 times but I am not sure. If it is completely locked and the ex owner block the radio. Solution is to use orange sim card, turbo sim (I don't like it) or call orange and see what they say. Just need to try everything before.
But before that I told you lets try.
1 Put original ROM and see if then you have the unlocking msg with your card or other different than orange or than your original provider. If possible try 2/3 different sim card.
2 If 1 didn't work try to put sim from original provider and see if work.
3 If 1st not work and 2nd work then the problem is with the radio.
4 Need to call your provider to see if they have any solution.
5 If they haven't solution, try turbo sim or use sim from original provider until we find solution how to change the radio.
6 Now we are in ROM test development so may be there we go to have new solution.
Who know ?
Well I downloaded the rom and started the update. Phone rebooted and I got the white screen saying it was downloading something something, can't remember the message but its part of the flashing process.
Anyway this only seem to take about 2mins???. When I did my first flash with the custom rom it took about 10minutes! So then the phone rebooted, back into the phone and nothing has changed! To me it still looks like the same custom rom I had before.
I'm going to try another sim now and will get back to you later.
Cheers for the help so far :-D

Wen you flash a custom ROM you can't see difference because is the same just missing some program and change some registers. 90% custom Roms you can see differences is inside the programs. Added or deleted programs. This change if is not good may cause a bugs (errors).For this I told you to change to original Rom. To try things how it come from shop and try find solution.
And wen you try other sim card post all msg you receive. And all steps you doing.
From my experience (my phone is locked to Docomo), If I flash UK original rom and put non-Docomo sim, the phone will show sim locked screen and allow me to enter unlock code while Debranded rom (from arag0n) doesn't.
I got this rom from mr.mike (only for T-01A) but I'm not sure that his original rom is the old 6.5 UK rom or new 6.5 UK rom (voice problem fixed).
sorry bojan6 I think there was some missunderstanding there so i will explain more.
-When i got the phone, it had original rom which had windows 6.1 installed.
-I installed a custom rom which had windows 6.5 and manila sense 2.5. this rom took about 10 minutes to install.
-As you requested I downloaded the rom from toshiba's website. I ran the install and it only seemed to take 2mins to install, alot quicker than the custom rom.
After installing the rom I expected manila to be gone and the 3 stripes menu thing to be back and all the Orange branding to be there but it wasn't it still looked like the custom rom and is debranded.
Any way I tried a t-mobile sim and still the same problem. Put in an orange sim and it worked fine.
ok I think the problem is the rom is not installing right.
I get the following error.
SD downloading failed
Invalid Variant!!!
I thing is the radio problem.How long do you left the sim card try to connect? Did you try before the change other sim card wen it was still with wm 6.1?
Did you try to enter in phone settings ? If in phone settings you receive msg insert Network PUK that mean you have problem with the radio.

This msg you have wen you try to install not original rom in phone. Just need to use tg01_sddl+.exe I uplaod it for you.
thanks bojan6 that worked. I can report the phone is now unlocked.
So it would seem that you must have an official rom to unlock the phone.

Great news. I am happy you have unlocked your phone.
So now you can change your Rom and play with it.
Any chance of repeating the procedure with another phone ?
Can u suggest the list of roms u've used?
had the same issue, this is what i done
i had the same problem, i flashed my phone with a cooked rom then tried to unlock it and it would not bring up the sim locked screen, i tried for hours and then i thought if i reflashed the phone with the original uk orange rom then this must work??? i flashed the rom and as soon as i put a none orange sim in the unlock request popped up, i then entered my unlock code and the phone unlocked straight away. i then reflashed with a cooked rom from here and all is well, phone unlocked and debranded YERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! anymore advice needed then just PM me, many thanks to this forum and the people who reply to threads...................
I have just bought a tg01 unlocked mobile phone. I was wondering if I should try some of the latest roms that are available on this forum. At the moment I believe the rom on the phone is a cooked version and the details I have found are below.
os version - 5.2.23563 (23563.5.5.0)
manilla version - 2.5.20121412.1
The phone at the moment is prone to the odd lockup for no obvious reason and I cannot connect the tg01 to my laptop that is running windows xp.
I have tried both activesync and mass storage and the phone will not connect but it does get a charge from the usb cable when plugged into my laptop.
If a rom upgrade is a good idea then would my phone remain unlocked after the flash ? I have no actual unlock code because the phone was sold to me in an unlocked state.
Thanks
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.

Hi,
Any baseband error will result in this condition. Have you played with custom roms ?
Maybe you have version mismatch wp7/rex, or baseband is corrupted. Maybe
reflash to the latest version and check.
BR
it was like this before i even unlocked it
can you provide links or any help? im a noob when it comes to wp7
Really a strange problem, if you are using a pincode, remove the pincode and see if that helps, otherwise try another simcard.
Succes,

Return the phone, sounds faulty
so ive been searching online and i think the phone is being IMEI blocked by tmobile, is there anyway around this?
Dial ##782# and press the call button now you can see if your phone is having a simlock, if yes search the forum.

Okay thanks, there are not much options left.
But we still have two problems, could it be the phone or the sim-card.
About the phone, did you already a factory reset and installed everything again ?
If not, I suggest to try that first.
Can you also tell me more about the sim-card, did you cut the sim-card yourself to fit in the phone, ordered a new sim, using an old one ?
First, if you ordered a new sim-card, just call T-mobile and asked them if you have to activate your sim.
Second, try to put a piece of paper on the sim-card to make it more stable.
For now I'm out of options,
Good luck,
