Hello:
I can't unlock my M600 because when I put the unlock code, the screen changes to "Input SIM PIN", but when I put the SIM PIN, the screen go again to input unlock code (is a loop).
This is all steps that I have made:
1) M600 without SIM card inside, connected to ActiveSync. I execute Lokiwiz03a without problems, all ok, and I get my 8 digits unlock code.
2) Power off M600 and I put a SIM card of other company.
3) Power on M600 and I get: "Input your PIN code..."
4) I put the SIM code and after 4 seconds the screen changes to "Network Locked. Please input the unlock code".
5) I put the 8 digits unlock code and after 2 seconds the screen changes to Step 3 ("Input your PIN code..."), and when I put the PIN code, the screen changes to "Network Locked. Please input the unlock code"..., IS A LOOP!!.
I'm desperate, I don't know that I can do. I have make soft and hard reset but I have the same issue.
Please, I need help..., what can happen?, exists any alternative method for unlock my M600?.
Thanks for all!!

If you have another SIM card try that. Also, try removing the SIM PIN on the current SIM card. (you'll need another phone/device)
Solved!.
I have restore the full original Orange Rom and unlock code was work!!.
If anyone have this problem, I reccommended install the original rom and try again.
Thanks!!

I think it might be worthwhile putting that in the lokiwiz thread/wiki entry.
Sorry 3v5y, I'm searching the Lokiwiz forum but I can't find...
Please, tell me the direct link and I will put the issue with solution.
Thanks
Here's one link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Unlock_Sim
Thanks I3v5y.
I have modified the wiki.
Please see the result (the lines in red color is the lines that I have added) and if you believe it is necessary, rewrite my text because I think that my english is not good...
Instructions for SIM Unlocking your Prophet :
1. Download ftp://xda:[email protected]-developers.com/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-tools/Lokiwiz03a.zip
2. Unzip Lokiwiz03a.zip somewhere on your computer
3. Make sure that your phone is connected via ActiveSync with the computer
4. Execute lokiwizMSL.bat on your computer
If it states: "Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is in use?"
Do the following :
*Copy the cab's from the Utils folder in the Lokiwiz03a.zip file to your Prophet and execute them.
(There are two files : "Cert_SPCS.cab" and "EnableRapi.cab")
*Execute lokiwizMSL.bat on your computer
5. It will give you the SIM unlock code after it runs, write it down somewhere.
* In some cases, if you get characters (or characters and numbers), indicates that your phone-pda was ulocked.
6. Just get a different SIM from the one your phone is locked to, and install it in the phone (you have to turn off your phone)
7. Turn on your phone
8. When it asks your pin code enter your normal pin.
9. It then asks you for the Service Provider Unlock Code: Here you insert the SIM unlock code you wrote down in step 5.
* NOTE: If you have a non original ROM, you can have a problem with unlock code, because when you put it, the screen
returns to SIM PIN code, and when you put the pin code, the screen changes again asking for unlock code...,
if this is your case YOU MUST CHARGE THE ORIGINAL ROM IN YOUR PDA, in this case only with your original rom you can
unlock the pda-phone.
10. That's it, enjoy your unlocked Prophet !
hello....i've get the the unlock code but i have cyanogenmod and i don't know how to introduce it...
Guess you are referring to the SIM Unlock code.
You need to put a SIM card for another carrier and power up the phone, once you do this you will get prompted for the Unlock Code.

I had this problem. Cyanogenmod does not prompt you for an unlock code when putting in a different sim.
You have to flash back to a stock rom, and then put in your unlock code. Then flash back to Cyanogenmod.
I have the same problem

As I said above, Cyanogenmod does not prompt you for an unlock code after putting in a SIM card from a different network.
You have to flash your phone back to a stock rom, boot up the phone with a different SIM, enter the unlock code, then flash back to Cyanogenmod.
I guess you can make a backup with Clockworkmod and then restore it afterwards. But I am not sure if the phone will be locked again.

Temporary workaround for SIM Card prompt
I have the same issue with my Motorola Defy+ (CM 10.1.20130331-NIGHTLY-mb256) in Australia using Telstra
Here is a way to force the SIM card unlock prompt to appear.
1) Boot phone - no SIM unlock screen appears - no mobile signal available (Network Unavailable) - that's OK read on...
2) Go to Settings- Security - Screen Lock
3) Change your Screen Lock method - I've tried Swipe and Pattern - both work for me
4) Once I have set the new Screen lock method I am immediately prompted with the SIM card unlock prompt
5) I enter the SIM card unlock code and I have mobile signal
6) Change your Screen Lock method back to whatever you want it to be.
It's an annoying workaround, but at least you don't have to re-flash your phone to a stock ROM, enter the pin and then flash up to the latest mod again.
Hope this helps.
hi
my friend has a sony xperia mini pro (sk17i) locked to orange with all the orange crap branding
he wants to unlock it to put a o2 simcard in it and wants to put cyanogen on to it
i had a htc desire and now have lg optimus 2x so i know about flashing roms and stuff
how do i go about unlocking it
thanks
First step:
Read in the Dev section.
hi yes i have looked at
http://androidflip.com/how-to-root-sony-xperia-x10-arc-arcs-play-ray-neo-mini-minipro-pro-active/
but it doesnt say anything about sim unlocking the phone
you need to input a password when you put other sim card on your phone didn't you?
if so, you need to have sim unlock password which you can get it by searching the keyword "sim unlock service" on google.
but if the sim unlock password screen didn't appear, you have to flash your rom first.
At some point in the past I setup an unlock code for my SIM card using ThunderShed (CM 7.2). I know the code, I have to enter it every time I reboot the phone (or come out of airplane mode). The situation is, the unlock code only works with the ThunderShed ROM. That sounds as weird to me as it does to you. Any other ROM I flash will not accept my unlock code. Even weirder, there is no option to remove the SIM unlock code in the Settings. "Location and security" is where it should be, but it isn't. So I cannot flash any other ROM w/o removing the SIM unlock code, and I cannot remove the SIM unlock code with my current ROM.
Any suggestions would be most welcome!
Hey guys, so I flashed the phone with a new rom but after first boot it says "This device is locked". Only way to unlock it is to join my wifi but I can't because the keyboard won't come up to type the password. I also tried flashing official MIUI rom...same thing. I think I have done something I shouldn't, because it was fine before.

Ok, I solved it. The keyboard does pop up when you are asked to input your mi account password, so I just pressed the "make password visible" button, put the password, copy it and then paste it in the wifi menu.
