i have bought last days the unlock code by ebay seller
but when i put in a wrong simcard (other mobile network), the mobile dont ask for the unlockcode
what can i do?????
how can i put in the code?
i will not install an other rom (when it is possible)
thx in advance

Depending on how you got the custom rom installed it may already be unlocked.

no it is not unlocked.
the phone shows .... hmm how can i describe with my english
it shows in the upper line (status bar) a simcard sign with a "!" and the five strips for network receiving are empty. (when normal network reciving a part of the stripes are green)
i have read in a old forum that cm 7 not provide the put in field for the unlockcode. a idea in this forum was: install the old system. :-(((((
i hope we find an other solve.
thx for helping

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A

i have read in a other forum that cm 7 has the same problem as cm 7.1. the only solution from the other forum is flash another rom.
i hope here in the programmer forum we find another / better solution.

[Q] Serious problem.. pls help..

Hello guys sorry for creating new thread. i know i should ask it from Q&A thread.
I recently bought HTC HD2 from my friend in Sweden.
Problem is when i put my TELE2 SIM it's still seeking service sometimes it's says no service. But amazingly 3G and H is still working i can surf but i cant talk. Then i put another SIM (Telenor) and its working perfectly. What does it mean? it's came with the original swedish frimware and why swedish carrier isn't working? Both of them(Tele2 , Telenor) Swedish carrier.
Now i guessing maybe it's stolen phone. Perhaps original owner reported and my IMEI blacklisted. But why telenor is working perfectly. ? Sorry for asking lot of question. But my phone is just brick now. and i can see little red light on my speaker it's still working even i locked it. i tried to Soft reset , hard reset , factory reset, restore with orginal frimware , none of them worked. Pls help...

[Q] GALAXY S3 i9300 Unlock GSM

Hi guys , i need your important help.I have Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300) ''Live Demo'' (It's a promo code).It works great but GSM is locked for every operator.
I almost rooted and i flashed OMEGA custom rom from xda.How i unlock gsm ???
Does it have an IMEI? If so you should be able to purchase one of of ebay. If they aren't available yet, they will be soon.
Edit: By "purchase one" I meant an unlock code...if you have an IMEI.
It works for every operator ?
You mean something like that cellunlocker service ?
I have an IMEI but the device its only for promo..doesn't read any network simcard.
So, this unlocker it works for every operator.Is anyway to rooted or flash custom ROM to unlock GSM function ?

[Q] [i9305] Phone not registered on network issue

hello xda !
I'm a C developper who just received his brand new Galaxy S3 i9305 4.1.2, my first android device !
And i love android. But i just realized it's simlocked and my provider bills 170€ (200$) to get an unlock code !
As i don't have that money and i don't wanna spend it unlocking my phone, i decided to downgrade my i9305 to 4.1.1, and to use the desimlock trick. I did it, using my provider ROM (i'm pretty sure it's the right one). My phone seems to be unlocked, but when i tried to do a test call, i got a weird message:
"Phone not registered on network"
WTF ?
I had a hope when i found ARIZA patch, but it failed, it was made for i9300.
I googled it again for a few days, and i found out that it probably is its modem firmware.
I'm not even sure of it and I hesitate flashing it back to 4.1.2.
Any idea of what causes the issue and how to solve it ?
I'm currently using XXALK2 and i'm from France using the Bouygues network, if it helps
Thanks for your help and time, this is my first post here.

Unlocking the phone

Hello everyone,
My phone was stolen last week in mexico city, and I baught a new one there at Walmart.
The phone (Huawei p20 lite) is issued to AT&T.
Now I'm back home (Israel) from the vacation, and when I enter my Israeli sim the phone requests a code.
I tried to contact at&t and tried using their form to request unlock but it doesnt recognize my IMEI, niether the mexican phone number.
Please help, I am able to root or install a stock rom if it will help, or any other instructions from you experts
Thanks alot
I think you need reBrand your device to your country. Look in xda in any Huawei Forum (actual Huawei-Family with OREO) for Help.
The Question is : have p20 lite for your country different Hardware (LTE-Bands ...) ?
Question 2 : have you the know how to do this ? It is not simple but it is very simple to brick the device !
Hey, thanks for your reply
The LTE frequency do match the ones in my country so that is not the issue if you are asking.
I have never done this on this phone, but if I find a guide that explains it step by step it would not be a problem.
