Probably he made some changes in calling settings. I'm not sure what "barring" actually means, but I'm pretty sure that operator can't do whatever he likes without user knowledge (unless it's some kind of failure).
About that password: I think it should be random 4 numbers. Try for example 1234 and you should be prompted to enter new one
I have tried passwords 1234, 8888, 0000 and etc none of them worked, I have looked in to manual still no joy on password

I think this is a 5 digit code as 12345

Hi there, so yesterday I rooted my previously straight out of the box T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 using the xwkdd_insecure.tar (with odin and superoneclick - I am a complete noob by the way, but this seemed to work after I followed a YouTube video), so that I could then unlock it to use 3 Mobile (in the UK) which I am on - I had bought this phone brand new and sealed from eBay (someone's unwanted upgrade). I then went on to using the free ChainFire sim unlock app, and seems as though now my 3 simcard can be used fine. Then I went on to flash it by th using this file first - I9100XWKE7_StockKernel.tar - after seeing another YouTube video to purely debrand it but this only got rid of the yellow ! logo which appeared after rooting it, that is all.
So I then went on to using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064894
in order to debrand it of all T-Mobile stuff, sjuch as the T-Mobile logo and trademark tune which came on after switching the phone on, and get it like a standard sim free/factory unlocked phone if you know what I mean. I used this file as mentioned in the link - I9100XWKDD_I9100XXKDH_I9100XEUKD1_HOME.TAR
The latter part of the guide goes on to entering #272*<IMEI># or something like that, but I have tried that all of the other alternatives and all I get is "USS code running" and like 2 seconds later the error message
"Connection problem or invalid MMI code" appears. I basically can't enter anything in my phone dial with # or whatever. What is wrong?
I have also noticed that whenever I call someone a message saying "Conditional call forwarding active" appears, but then proceeds to make the call okay. I have tried to disable and fiddle around with the call forwarding settings, but again, error messages come up when doing so.
What exactly is wrong and how can I fix it - I am a bit of a noob with all this....? It is surely something to do with all that stuff I have mentioned. Please help me as I honestly don't know how to go about fixing this. What is the most straightforward thing to do which will stop these messages?
Thanks in advance.
Any ideas guys please?
I think that in the code, where it says imei, you have to insert your imei number?
Not 100% sure though.

Hi mate, yeah I know that sorry I should have been clearer, I mean if I type in any code with # pretty much that message always comes up, like for finding my IMEI with #*06# though I can find it another way, and for speeddial etc
the combination is *#number code not only one of them or the other way round... (eg.: *#06# for imei)
Sorry if this has been answered before but I can't find the answer.
I got my gsm razr today and I love it but I can't send a text message, I can receive texts and surf the Web. My phone us showing 4 bars of hspa. I can even tether, but no sending sms. My phone says error code 500.
Only thing I found on google said restart it and SMS will be.fixed but that didn't work.
the phone is rooted on 2.3.5 if that matters.
has anyone had this problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks

I have the same problem. The only way I can get mine to work is to put a SIM from another account in my phone. Enter *#*#4636#*#* and go to Phone Information. Refresh the SMSC. It will populate with the correct information. At this point, I can send texts from the phone. Put in the original SIM (do not reboot phone) and then you should be able to send SMS from your number.
The only problem is that the SMSC number does not stay through reboots. I have to do this process every time I reboot.
Does anyone know how to get this number to stick?
I don't have the same problem however I have noticed that GOSMS Pro from the market does allow a Customized SMSC setting in the Send Settings tab. Perhaps you can try that out and see if it fixes the issue?
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried both but neither work. I really like this phone but not having text us killing me. Someone please help

the chronology :
I use foxhound rom since months and months
I bought a S3 in june locked, that i unlocked changing the nv_data.bin and i rooted it
I updated my rom with the LG8 version last week, and so lock came back
==> so i used voodoo unlock apk + fix 0.1

i do not need anymore voodoo unlock seen that i BUY A CODE TO UNLOCK PERMANENTLY MY PHONE
so i try to install other roms and modems with each time a full wipe, reset (before to install rom or modem) == the problem STAY
as well with others modems version like DXLF3 LF2,LFB, LG8, LG6
as well trying to fix permission each time
as well verifying the apn settings
the phone is rooted as before
i try to play with *#*#4636*#*# but nothing change
i restored original EFS folder but...
but my phone stay useless even after to install so many roms and modems (cyanogen, stock,foxhound roms)
the signal stay on 3G when i try to call o to send sms but browsing it change to H+
NO CALL, NO SMS WORKING BUT INTERNET WORKING
what have been changed by the voodoo apk+fix that is not overwritten reinstalling a rom or modem ?
i suppose the origine of the problem come from this tool ?! since i use it, happens my problem.
can i find somewhere a backup of the root folder to reinit my phone totally knowing i have a backup of my original EFS folder?

Have you checked your IMEI?
Didn't see it mentioned in op.
enter *#06# on your phone keyboard.
if your imei number is like 00000... or starts with 0049... its the imei's fault.
EFS2 folder ???

No SMS suggests wrong settings in message centre .
No call suggests wrong APN / CSC/ Modem .
in fact, there is a past history in 2012, the store bought phones individuals who entered into a contract with an operator and resold the phone not paying the subscription. subsequently, blocking the telephone operator for non-payment, this is a common scam, but is less so when it is a store.

Hi mate , i have the same problem like you .Do u solve it? What i need to bring my calls and sms back?
Hi, my Xperia U can't make calls at all, it can find available mobile networks but can't connect.
I'm in the UK and the phone is on the Orange network.
I don't know if it's a software or hardware problem, I have tried flashing ICS, and earlier versions of GB but that hasn't fixed it.
With ICS I get this message "Phone not allowed mm#6"
Has anyone else had this problem, did you find a fix?
Thanks
Garry
You may want to check whether your IMEI buy typing in your call app: *#06#
Compare the IMEI with the one printed below your battery. If it differs you may have overwritten your IMEI with a one blocked by your operator.

IMEI numbers match
I've checked the IMEI numbers as you described and they match.
Does anyone have an idea on if this can be fixed?
Solved
Phoned Orange, they had blocked the phone due to debit card expiring and different card being used to top up.
Orange did not contact me in any way to inform me that the phone had been blocked.
Hi ya,
the guys from android-hilfe.de sent me here because they cant help me anymore. I brought the HOX+ 3 weeks ago on ebay local. the first week everything went fine and then out of a sudden I cant sent SMS or call anybody. when I try to call anybody (no different if I enter the number by hand or chose it from the contactlist) the connection isnt established. no error message, nothing. just "beep" and thats it. I use a vodafone simcard and if another vodafone user tries to call me, he gets the same "beep" like me, when I try to call. SMS dont reach me either. the sender gets an error just seconds after he tries to sent. I cant sent it too. BUT i get access to the internet. surfing, whatsapp and the facebook-app works fine. I had switched off wifi to make sure the connection is established through my vodafone carrier...and it is.
I called my provider an they say it must be the simcard - so they sent my a new one. but it doesnt helped. the same errors like before. then i tried to chance my simcard with a friend who uses o2 in his galaxy S3. my sim worked in his phone perfectly and his sim in my HOX+, too. Then i took the simcard of another friend whos also using vodafone and put it in my HOX+. the problems with calling and SMS were the same. my sim card was working fine in his HD2. so i tried more and more...it seems that only vodafone simcards got the problem with my phone. i also tried to reset the HOX+, deleted call forwarding, which doesnt fix the problem too. even gsm-codes like #004# or *135# wont work and a got the error message "Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code".
because i brought it on ebay i´m afraight it might have been stolen and locked by the provider - is there something like simlock or netlock? and if yes, how to fix it?
please excuse my bad english and thanks a lot for your help in advance
http://www.imei.info/
use that to check if it's stolen
Hi Lexx,
nice to see you here .
I dont think that is stolen ( more I hope so ). First check that out , maybe you or someone else is able to unlock it, if it is simlocked.
If it is stolen I would force as much preassure as I can to the seller...
Paypal or a complain to the police
thank you for you warm welcome.
i just checked the imei at imei.info and can't see any clue that the phone was stolen. do you need any information provided by the homepage or how to go on now? the phone still isn't working (except internet).
Goto the Vodafone website,
In their support area you can find a formulae to reapply network settings.
I had the problem you described with my dhd, reapplying carrier settings fixed SMS and calling.
Alternatively you can manually crosscheck all settings.
Regards
Alex

well I crosschecked the settings at least 10 times. they are definately correct. A konfiguration SMS cant be sent by 1&1 (a reseller of vodafone i use) because I cant receive sms at all. so my problem is still there. I recognized, that after I try to sent a SMS the connection always breaks down and I have to enter my pin-code again.
It seems there's something very strange with that phone. maybe any kind of lock?!
ps:
i can sent MMS but do not receive them.
Did you try a factory reset?
Sent from my HTC One X+ using Tapatalk 2
yes i tried software reset in the settings menu. But i didnt worked
Sounds like you need apn settings
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app
are you sure? The settings are correct and internet and mms wouldnt work if the settings were wrong. Right?
Depends and you said the Sudan? Hmm may be its a band issue. If your not on the same gsm bands your not going to receive voice. But if your on a compatible data band you will receive data. Now call your service provider and simply ask if the settings are correct. And there are data only Sims so you gotta watch out. Call the service provider and see what's what
. Good luck!

it worked some days until it suddenly stopped working. i already got a new simcard and checked the settings. they're right. but i found out that i'm not the only one having this problem:
forums.att.com/t5/Wireless-General-Device/HTC-one-X-plus-stops-receiving-calls/td-p/3370861
i just use the carries 1&1 (a german reseller of vodafone),but the problems are the same... and it seems there's no solution to fix it
maybe you got a clue?
Hmm ok how is the signal?
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda app-developers app
depends on where I am. Right now in the middle of berlin it says hsdpa with maximum signal.
Can you tell me what the right settings would be when I enter *#*#4636*#*# ??? there are loats of information and maybe there it can be seen which is wrong.
any clue? Well I found out that there is something called "vodafone protect" which seems to lock and/or delete the mobile when it's stolen. maybe I bought a protected one Or should this be "deleted" when I reset by menu??
