Hi,
I searched and couldn't find anything like this. I just purchased an unlocked amaze. I put my sim in turned it on and it won't connect to the network. I tried going into settings>mobile network>network operators>search networks> at this point it finds both t-mobile's and at&t's networks when I click on t-mobile it says registering on t-mobile and then after a while says your sim does not allow a connection to this network. I spent all morning with someone in a t-mobile store he gave me a new sim but when that didn't work had no idea what to do.
Thanks for any help!

How do you know that?
That's basically common knowledge. Plus Hasoon unlocks phones and is a recognized developer and contributor to the community.
If you wanna prove Hasoon's theory, simply put an AT&T SIM in, if it detects and works fine, well you have your answer.

I'm looking around and I'm curious if I can get a vibrant from tmobile to work on my verizon account somehow. Sorry for the lack of searching but I'm out and about at the moment.
No. Not ever. Sorry. Also post questions in Q&A.
I'm petty sure its impossible. The vibrant is a GSM phone and verizon runs on CDMA.

no. Verizon uses CDMA technology and Vibrant runs on GSM, also ur gonna get flamed cuz its in the wrong section.
No.. that's like trying to say can i install a intel processor on AM3 (AMD) socket. It's two different things and would never ever work.

The actual answer is yes, but not in the US of A - in Europe Vodafone is Verizon partner and it offers GSM service.

And have the widget redirected to Bing. I know you can root it and change it and all that but I still think its unfair to the users who aren't rooting. It's just absurd that they restrict things like this.
Also not a huge fan of Verizon's exclusive apps like Skype, NFL, etc. I know you could extract it in APK format and do it like that but it's not healthy to make exclusive apps.

Iam thinking that you can do it, but first you need to unlock your phone.. First you need an activated Tmobile sim card placed into vibrant to go to next steps... Second look into market searching for "samsung unlock" and install and run it..it will give you the unlock code that the phone will ask you when you replace your verizon sim card, so write down all the info... third turn off vibrand and replace tmobile sim with verizon one and boot the phone... Enter the unlock code that you get from step 2 and enjoy your new unlocked phone!!..
I dont try it yet because I dont have the need, but I think that it will help you ...

This post is incorrect. Verizon does not use sim cards. The method posted here will unlock your phone for other GSM service, but since Verizon is not GSM this will not work.
Also, I really am curious since it happens so often, how do people keep posting in development and claiming they are confused about where to post?
I'm not making fun of anyone, this is a serious question. There are two forums: one is labeled Q&A and one is labeled development. How is it possible so many people make this mistake?

Wow. Some of you people clearly should not be flashing anything to your phones.
I have seen some of the worlds stupidest people on a forum with some of the worlds smartest. If you don't know what qna means then put you fing diaper back and go back to first grade. I'm sick of all this non dev chat in the dev section. If you don't know what cdma and what GSM is then Google it. Don't give the I'm to lazy to search excuse cause that's a bunch of bull.
GSM: most of the world, att T-Mobile.
Cdma: Verizon and sprint.
If a phone is cdma it will not work on GSM. And vise versa.
Now stfu noobs and gtfo.

It's so simple. There are two completely different technologies in question here. Cdma which Verizon uses and gsm which t-mobile and at&t use(which is why I-phone works on t-mobile). And to set the record straight about sim cards,I have seen several black berrys with sim cards on Verizon.

Those ones for Verizon that have SIM cards are the world editions of the phones and can go outside of the USA and use a local carrier that uses SIM cards (e.g. Vodaphone). CDMA and GSM are not compatible technologies. You cannot use one type of phone on the other network.
Lol, let the flaming and ranting begin!!!!!

hey,
is anyone aware of a method to remove SIM lock on an Amaze 4G without use of an Unlock code (basically I can't find any available at this time - phone was only released on the 4th on the Telus Network and I'm with Rogers).
if a method is possible with use of temp root please advise
thanks,

You can reflash without rooting. Find the restore to stock tread and follow the instructions.

if you bought the phone from someplace like ebay or craigslist, you might want to call tmobile and make sure the imei isn't blocked

Seems like it's alot of HTC Amaze scams going on...........
As simply stated in the title, how can the Amaze be unlocked to be used on AT&T? I see many sites offering "pay for unlock codes", on other android phones one can usually do this on their own.
Can this be done with the Amaze?
Thank you
If you have been a t-mobile costumer for over three months then you can call them and ask for the Sim unlock code. they will give it to you for free. just need to provide the IMEI number.

there is no unlock method for the amaze that has been generated like the samsung series, atleast yet, you would have to purchase one online.

frown wish i could find one that cheap (that could work on ATT)
So i bought a samsung galaxy note off a guy on craigslist about 3-4 weeks ago and today i noticed i didnt recieve any calls or texts from anyone, so i checked my phone and could get a signal at all, so i reset the phone to factory using kies and now it says, Phone Not Allowed MM#6 and i cant connect to any network
someone please help and tell me what i can possibly do to solve this issue
I did a little research and it could be a few things... Either you've gave the carrier the wrong IME number or the phone was reported lost or stolen by the original customer... I would call the carrier the phone is for and ask them. Also if the original owner hasn't paid his phone bill the carrier can lock the ime from being used... I've heard a lot of people buying phones on Craigslist like that...

so it's an AT&T note and you're using it on Tmobile right? have you tried an AT&T sim? If you don't have one available to you, I think you can go into an AT&T store and ask them if they can do a quick check for you. Be sweet, apologetic for using their time, maybe send your gf in to flirt with them a little they'll more than likely give you a hand.

not a stupid question, i did not say if it was unlocked or not
but yes it is, i received the unlock code directly from ATT so im not sure on how to fix this, if the ATT sim works then i will just sell it as an att phone
What modem is showing in the phone ? (needs blaze modem for TMO, if it's an ATT device)
And are your APN settings correct ? (needs the TMO apn's)
Two nails in the coffin for service if not correct.....
just brainstorming....g
And sometimes the network around you has a brain-fart. Sometimes those problems go away within a day.
Everything seems fine I restored it to stock thru kies, but I went to att and tried a live sim and it worked like I should its for some reason only T-Mobile Sims that don't work ugh!
