Unlocking Country Lock - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have bought a phone Attila Mate Pro from UAE but it came with network restrictions. In my country india, Data traffic works well but no income or outgoing calls. When calling it shows 'no network available' but it shows full network in network bar along with 4G written on it. I think there is country / network lock on this device.
How can I unlock this?

Sim card not registered?

Hi guy's, have a UK SGS2. It's rooted and running Criskelo ICS rom. I've recently been in Brazil for 6 months, my phone worked fine over there. I've come back to the UK and got a standard Vodafone PAYG sim card. When I try and use it the phone says "not registered on network"
The sim card itself is fine as it works in my old mans SGS2.
I have wiped the phone and installed the standard software and it's still the same.
Anyone got any ideas what could be up?
The phone could be network locked (sim lock)
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
That's what the guy on Vodafone web chat suggested.
How and why would it get network blocked?
The phone was originally on the 3 network. I bought it 2nd hand about 1.5 years ago and it's been fine on T-mobile ever since.
If it is sim locked, is there a way to unlock it?
You can unlock with:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5zZ3Myc2ltdW5sb2NrY29kZSJd
It's free on google play.
I don't think it's sim locked, I can put any chip in it. It doesn't ask me for an unlock code.
I have run the sim unlock tool. The code it came up with is 00000000
When you go into the network settings, it shows all the service providers. every provider I click on says "can't register on the network"
I'm wondering if i've had some sort of network update in Brazil that's screwed it up?

I'm sure its something to do with being abroad as i've read about someone that had the same issue when they went from China to Denmark.
If I go to settings - phone it says...
Network - Unknown
Signal Strength - 103 dBm 5 asu
Mobile Network Type - HSDPA:9
Service State - Out of Service
Roaming - Not Roaming
Mobile Network State - Disconnected
My Phone Number - Unknown
IMEI - the correct number, I checked
The fault isn't with the sim card itself, I can use it in other phones and I can save a contact to it in this phone.
I'm wondering if some of those network settings I had from the Brazilian phone company's have messed something up.

Not connecting to Network Operators?

Alright, so here's the problem:
I've had my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge for around 4months now, having no problems with it what-so-ever.
The other day (Tuesday) having waking up, my mobile wasn't able to send or receive phone calls or SMS messages, but it was still connected to my providers internet.
I can still browse the web using my provider, giffgaff, under 4G internet but when I try to send a text or phone anyone it says: "Not registered on Network".
I've contacted my network provider and they are adamant it's nothing to do with my network, also tried my sim in another phone and it works.
Now, I checked my IMEI and it was unblocked.
Tried rooting, factory resetting my phone and putting different roms on, nothing seems to be working. My internet still works on my phone, just my network is unable to connect.
When I manually search for network I find: Vodaphone, O2, EE, 3 Network. Having tried to load it up on O2 (Giffgaff uses O2 and my network provider asked me to do so) it says it's unable to connect.
I'm just wondering, is there anyway to resolve this?
Also, my signal bar is full, and the local reception for my Network is "excellent".
Hello, i've been having the same problem and couldn't resolve this with my network provider aswell i can get connected to the network but soon as it registers to 3g it kicks me of my network operator the only temp fix i could find was go to settings, mobile networks, network mode, gsm only, then register to network to receive and send calls and texts, i've tryed everything and it's the only thing i can suggest as a temp fix .:good:

Network problems.

So today I got an p9000 elephone. Awesome phone buy I have problem with data. I'm in Germany and here eplus network is using aldi network, o2 and few similar providers. Sometimes I get R near strength bar. I am unable to use data then even tho I checked data roaming(this happens cause I am not in main network medion mobile but in o2 network ), then I need to use airplane mode and turn it back off so I can regain access to main network. Any advice's on this?
Thanks in advance.
Same problem here. But I live near the border to Austria, so I can't enable data roaming, because I don't want to pay Austrian network... I think national roaming doesn't work with the P9000...
But I tested turning on the roaming option for national roaming. That worked for me, even if there is no internet connection shown... But it's too risky for me to have Austrian network. So it's no solution for my problem.
exactly the same same problem here

XZ1 from Japan. Installed latest CE1 FW, partial Simlock

Hi. I've recently ordered a new XZ1 from Japanese distribution. Phone is working (without NFC of course) on latest Customized CE1 firmware. But I have a problem with calling. I can call anybody but no one can call me. LTE/4G and Edge/2G data is working. But phone doesn't see any 3G networks (I tried 2 Polish Play SIMs and one Plus SIM with the same effect). I enabled VoLTE by flashing oem from Japanese Softbank but this didn't help. I checked service menu - simlock status and there is one "X" sign at Network subset with number 5 beside. So now - is it possible to fully unlock sim so that I could actually use WCDMA connectivity to receive calls?
Network [0] either means the phone is network unlocked or unlocking no longer available
Network Subset [5] mean the phone is Carrier restricted and this restriction only allow certain SIM cards (most being seen CDMA network band I 2.0GHz)
you might have to either contact the distributors (au, docomo, SoftBank) or provide these informations to 3rd party services.
Hi,
I've got the same issue with my japanese XZ1 (SOV36), only EDGE or 4G.
Did you figure out how to fix it ?

Note 20 5G SM-N981B/DS mobile data connects only with specified network provider[Smart Telecom]

Hi!
My unit - samsung note 20 cannot use mobile data on another network.
For instance, I am here in Philippines there are two major network provider - Smart & globe telecom.
Now, my phone was provided by Smart Telecom and I can use mobile data with their sim card. but when I switch to Globe telecom,
my globe sim card was greyed out on the mobile data selection. even my phone was already factory unlock.
Is there a way to access and modify this kind of network locking? If so, How?
thank you in advance !
What version of the software for the SM-N981B do you have? You can find this in about phone, match it with the listing at https://samfw.com .
