I think you need an unlock code for the sim card. I would try the Galaxy Tools app here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/not.../app-one-click-hotspot-enabler-menus-t2816159 download the app to your device, go to the hidden menus there is one for sim unlock code .

SIM Toolkit

Any update on HTC's SIM Manager Version 1.39? My SIM has built-in Toolkit 2.0 and unfortunately xda doesn't seem to have any option for running SIM Toolkit.
Wish anybody could help.
Thanks.
Hi,
Try O2_NL version 3.15.15.
tool kit
i have just upgraded my xda to the new 64mb and its got the sim tool kit which doesent do anything what is it supposed to do ??? :?:
Your SIM card must support SIM toolkit and if does there is a very simple
application in Program files.
btw
Where did you get 64MB upgrade? :?:
i have been with o2 select for a long time and i told them mine wasnt working so they replaced it
Does anyone know what the Sim Toolkit does? I can click on mine as many times as i want and it does nothing.
I'm on O2 UK
SIM toolkit is basically an application which handles small programs located on your SIM card. Usually it is a menu driven application, which prepares special SMSs, so you don’t need to bother with codes. I use it for banking, so I can transfer money, check balances etc. It is very useful, but you only need the SIM Toolkit if your SIM card supports it…
Ahhh
I see
So my sim probably dosn't support the sim toolkit.
Thanks

[Q] Galaxy S2 Sim unlock complications – noob!

Hi All,
I’ve just got myself a “bargain” from eBay that was advertised as unlocked but alas turned up with the sim lock on
I’ve contacted the Tmobile network in the UK and they will only send a code to a uk address and I am not there.
I have looked on this and other forums and seen that I could do it myself. I have rooted the phone and now have the yellow warning triangle on boot up. I also have CWM and Superuser icons in the Applications.
I have then tried to go onto the android app store to download Chainfires Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock. I then get the "There are no Android phones associated with this account" problem. Again I have looked at the solution to remove the phone number and re-enter it but this has not worked. I have tried several times.
I do not have Wifi and obviously can’t access the internet on the phone.
Is someone able to kindly send me the file in an email?
Once I have this done what else do I need to do to the phone? I’ve rooted it but only to the closest number I could find.
Thanks to XDA and all of you for reading this!
I'm a little slow so plese can you dumb it down... alot! ha ha
Phone: GT-I9100
Android version - 2.3.5
Baseband version - I9100BOKJ1

That app only works on early version phones and may not work for you. If it doesn't you should try Helroz's Galaxy S Unlock app it works on all S II's but I believe it requires Internet to get a small payload. Which could be a problem for you unless you drive around for the first open WiFi.
It also doesn't give a code it just straight unlocks the phone.
Thanks. I have downloaded this to my computer. What do I now do with it?
I'm still lost... What do I do?
Please can anyone point me in the right direction!
Thanks
Place the app on your internal or external sdcard and install. Ensure you have enabled 'unknown sources' or something like it in the phone settings first. Allow it root access when prompted by the super user app.

Thanks for the quick reply,
The phone is brand new to me and I don't understand your instruction. I have downloaded the file and extraced the folders and files. I have then placed this onto the card. I then go into the phone and have ticked the unknown sources box. I then try to run any of the files and only get a "No applications can perform this action" error.
If I try to run AndroidManifest.xml it opens HTML viewer.
Anyone Please....
It's an apk, you weren't supposed to extract it. Apk files are android installation packages. Push the apk to your phone's sd card, and open it using the "my files" app to install.
Thanks again. I've done that. I can find the file eu.chainfire.sgs2simunlockcode.zip in My files. When I tap on it I get the message "Open file. No applications can perform this action"
What am I doin wrong? Thanks for your patience

You apparently somehow changed the file extension from .apk to .zip. Change it back.
I had to change the file extension from .zip!
I am not running the app and hopefully that will work. Wish me luck!
What else should I do to a new phone? Is there any way to get rid of the Tmobile startup screens?
Thanks for all your help, you have helped me stop pulling all my hair out and shouting at the dog!
The app did not find an unlock code
Anymore ideas anyone?

You can flash a stock unbranded firmware... But it sounds as if you should read a lot more educational material before attempting this. Lots of good information is in the roll up sticky in the i9100 general section. Start there, and start reading. I can't offer you any shortcuts. Shortcuts tend to lead to frustration and bricked phones.
I have looked into other ways to unlock this phone...
How do I extract my nv_data.bin - I cannot find this file

I have a computer with a sim card in it. I know that there are services to unlock but I am trying to avoid that cost if I can. Perhaps after I have tried all other options I will have to go that route.
Thanks

[Q] Can't find the SIM lock unlock code...

Hi there,
So I have my phone in the British network O2 and I decided to get a contract in Three so I have to take off my SIM lock. I used the method of copying the BML5 file using a Terminal Emulator app on my phone. I opened the file in an hex editor and looked for the code but I couldn't find it anywhere.
Please answer ASAP.

[Q] no unlock code prompt when adding sim?

Is there a way put in the unlock code without a new SIM? I went from Tmobile (HTC ONE) to straight talk on compatible tmobile SIM….it never asked for unlock code. Put in new APNs but can not remove preset Tmobile APNs (2). Phone and MMS works, but not email/internet.
I don't think you have to unlock it with that kind of SIM card internet not working don't know about that
