in my hand is htc one x plus unlocked.
its originally from telus in canada.
i am using a koodo sim card in it but the phone has no service whatsoever even though the same sim used in another unlocked phone will work but wont work in this phone. this is the first time i have ever owned a htc phone after hd2 long long time. so i am not sure what to do and what to check for it. if somebody can help me i'll appreciate.
thanks

it says "ME returnd a temporary error" when i pop the sim in and no service. any idea of this error tried googling and got nothing
You shouldn't have a problem since Koodo is a Telus subdivision. Is it a Micro SIM card? Or a SIM you cut to have it work?

Hi, I'm new to the forums and new to unlocking phones. But I wanted to unlock my vibrant, I have my unlock and unfreeze codes but when I put a different sim card in it just tells me to call customer care and gives me no option to put in an unlock code. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Different sim card have to be from different service provider like at&t.
This is first time I hear that unlocking option won't appear after installing different sim card !
I tried using a net 10 trac fone sim card, since I read from other people on here they said it would work. but when i put it in and start the phone i can use my phone but when I go to the call screen it says "sim card crash - Please contact customer service". So Im gonna try an at&t card(with data plan) from my friend hopefully it works. Also I have another question like I said Im new to this stuff. If I still use my tmobile sim card can I still connect to at&t's internet/data?
I would think that to access AT&T's network services, you would need to have the AT&T sim installed in the phone.
You have to put different sim card other than T-Mobile to get unlock code screen !

Dude WOLF, not to be rude but if you read I put a NET 10 TRAC Fone sim in, not a t-mobile.
anyways on a better note. I finally have it unlocked! I put in a friends boost mobile sim, Screen popped up and put the code in. sweet.

Nope...you'd need to put in an AT&T SIM that's tied to an AT&T account with a data plan.

sarcasim is a good thing but maybe you aren't comprehending what i am saying duhh!!
i own NSPRO box and have unlocked the galaxy S phones quite frequently, the phone is sim unlocked for any sim card or gsm carrier, what i am saying has nothing to do with unlocking with the sim card in( which i tried for ****s and giggles). the problem is the vibrant is not recognized on the network , i have tried my sim and several other t-mobile sims the phone doedn't receive signal on t-mobile network or simple mobile( which is a NVO of t-mobile)so what i am asking is does t-mobile block imei's from their network and is their a solution other then changing imei of the phone which i do not wish to do although i can change imei i will not since it is illegal.
the problem
let me clarify it actually says on the screen
"not registered on network"
anyway to register it on system???
its unlocked and works on at&t, h2o and all other gsm carriers except t-mobile and simple mobile
clone another imei, that will solve this problem, There is an app that allows you to give you a new I D # to your phone
I am same problem here everytime try to make call it says "Not Registered on the Network", SIM card works fine on different phone, also other SIM when inserted on Vibrant gives same message.
Under Settings> Wireless> Mobile network settings does not allow access...
Can someone help resolve this situation.
Thanks,
I am also
having the same problem. I purchased a used Vibrant from my friend whom defaulted on his bill so he sold his phone to me. When I attempt to use the T Mobile prepaid SIM or a regular T Mobile SIM it will not allow me to connect to the network. It stays on (Searching) or (No Service) but the date and time updates so I know it is connecting, just not able to use the network. Is there anyway to get around this problem or do I need to root and unlock to go to another carrier?
Hi guys I am having similar issue, please help
I was using bionix 1.3.1 by team whiskey, whats your advice do I change to ICS, will that solve the problem or simple radio upgrade will solve the matter? I have gone through several sites and found that this problem is with many android mobiles since last 2-3 years. Is there no solution to this yet! I have tried Airplane mode, removing battery, downloading autocut and all those basic methods but to no help ...
I have the same problem, did anybody find a solution?
I tried everything, flashed to stock, GB, ICS, JB.
My phone is unlocked and it only works on AT&T, the sim card is good, as I'm using it on my backup phone.

Same here. This all happened when I let my friend borrow my phone to put his SIM on it. It was a prepaid Simple Mobile SIM. It didn't work but after I went to put my SIM card back into my Vibrant, the phone never got service.
Funny thing is, my SIM works on one of my older phones, so I know the SIM still works, but my Vibe gets messages like "out of service" and "not registered on network" even through it still has some bars.
I think the problems relates to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37703090#post37703090
Somehow the bands on your device is messed up so you never get a signal. Not sure how to fix it but any solutions would be great.
Hey peeps, i have a problem with an HTC Amaze in here thats not recognizing the sim card. It shows the imei and all that. Radio seems to be fine but then again when it turns on it will not recognize the tmo or any other sim card. Its running 4.0.3 ICS but thats about all i know. It had never been open before i did. Inside everything looks ok. But i know that doesnt mean everything is ok. Could it be the sim card holder? I have already checked the pins that make contact with the sim card and they look fine. Hardware? Software? Any advice?

I only say this because i made the mistake of putting the sim card upside down. All my previous phones were the opposite. lol
Lol! very funny story but this is not the case ha ha... So any other advice will be appreciated. If i find out ill let the forum know what i did...
That happened to my first Amaze. It fixed itself the next day, but another problem popped up. Unfortunately, I had to trade it in and get a new one. Hopefully, everything will work out for you.
Had to use a new sim card when I got the Amaze a couple of weeks ago. It wouldn't recognize the card I been using for for year.

this. i would think you need a new sim card. the imei has zilch to do with the sim
i had to get a new replacement for my phone, kept resetting it and everything flashing new roms, radio would work then go out, got a new phone works great again.

What sim card are you using? Maybe the card is incompatible. Any T mobile store should new able to help you with that.

so i'm trying a fix a galaxy note att branded i717 note. my friend bought it craiglslist. here's what happens.
phone simply will not accept ANY att sim card. either "active" sim or fresh unactivated sim. same goes for tmobile sim cards. in both cases it will show "no sim/emergency calls only".
fine. i was under the impression that it should ask for some unlock code after inserting tmobile sim card, but it doesnt do that. clearly other MVNO sims didn't work either. note - both att and tmbole sims are 89014xxxxx
interestingly i had a foreign sim card (NON 89014xxxx....). => this works! instead of "no sim/emergency calls only", i simply get no service but no errors either!
WHAT is wrong with this phone? blacklisted? hardware fault? flash a different rom? any ideas?

well there's your problem, i hope you didn't spend too much on it.
I think he paid around 310. But the phone was in like new condition. If the SIM slot us damaged then why it would only reject tmob,att ones? It should reject every sim.
thx for ur responses. Appreciate it

I think I can help. Try resetting your phone, reinstalling the rom, or there is a bad thing going on with your phone. Are you sure itbis from AT&T? If the SIM card slots do not work, gently use a cloth to clean them. Is it a micro SIM card or did you cut a regular one down yourself? thank me if anything I mention fixes the problem.
hi, thanks everybody for posting. some strange things happening.
I tested two Tmobile MVNO (ultra and ptel) sim cards, both work! I didn't try simple mobile yet.
i found ONE tmobile and ONE at&t sim card that gets read properly. then i tried few other att/tmobile sim cards and they are rejected. !!!??!!!
I think i need to go the debug mode and change some settings there? *#197328640#
clearly sim slot is not broken. imei is not blocked.
Hey everyone. Recently I did the free sim unlock that crixley posted. Now I checked the phone to see if it was unlocked by entering the special code on the dial pad. I followed the instructions carefully but nevertheless - my i717 kept saying "No SIM Card" whenever I put in the tmobile sim but it read my att sim when I put it in. Now i tried different modems/radios but still the same thing. Im not sure if its a problem with the sim because it is old. It came with my HTC Sensation 4g from tmobile and that was about early 2012. The sim has just been in a box with stuff all over it to so I dont know if its ruined. What do you guys think? Ill post a pic of both sims. Ill post a pic of unlock message to. Thanks!
Top Is Tmobile sim
bot is att sim
You unlocked the phone -- why? You don't have an account with a non-at&t carrier?
Just borrow a non-at&t sim card from anyone.
