Every time I start up my phone it asks for my unlock code before asking for my Pin # and I know the unlock code I put in is correct but it claims its wrong. And it was working 5 minutes before all this happened!
Has anybody else experienced this??
What should I do?
Double check the code is correct - from where ever it came from, then if it was from your service provider call them about it, don't just kepp entering it you can lock the phone fully
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)
Hi guys, after i purchased a code for my htc hero, and i inserted the foreign key, but there was nothing poping up to notify me to enter the 8 digit network unlocking,
i tried around 8 different custom roms but all are the same ..
what should i do to get the unlock code screen ?
thanks in advance
Not too sure if i understand your question correctly or not, but if its the code to unlock it to "another or all" networks, on the default stock sense ROM when it shows you the screen saying "no service" you slide either the top down or the bottom up to be presented with the keypad to unlock the device to which ever network you bought an unlock code for. Pretty sure it would be the same for other ROMS
Hope that made sense and i understood the question right
Well, when i start up the phone it shows " No service or Emergency Calls" and it allows me to drag it down only to be able to use the phone normally, but my question was : when i insert a foreign simcard ,the phone must prompt me to unlock the specific network with the code you purchased that contains 8 digits.
my problem is i don't get this prompt screen never!
Hello guys is there an app to log entered mmi and ussd codes as if call logger.

I wish it is possible.
[Q] "no sim" error on my other carrier, currently overseas can't make calls.
Hello everyone,
Long time reader first time poster because I have searched for the past 2 days to solve my problem but it is kind of an emergency at this point.
I am currently overseas, last year I was here I was running stock GB and unlocked the simlock by contacting AT&T and getting a code. This year I am upgraded to stock JB but I get a no sim error with my overseas carrier and the phone doesn't ask for code at all. I tried putting in the ATT sim again and that works but can't use it here because its too expensive. I have tried other people's sim cards (total of 3) all of them get no sim error. This tells me the sim lock is still on there but I can't do much since it doesn't ask me for code.
I have also flashed siyah kernel and paranoid rom since coming overseas still no luck. This was mainly because stock JB was horrible.
I tried galaxy s unlock app but won't see my internet connection, I am not sure if it would be able to solve my problem anyway. I can't try the paid version of sim unlock because I can't get it charged to my ATT bill. I heard there is a free version but couldn't find it after searching for hours, seems as the developer wants this to be paid anyway.
I tried choosing multiple carriers under network settings but no luck.
I am sorry if I missed something obvious. Seems like Kies\ATT messed up something while upgrading me to JB
I have contacted ATT to ask if their JB upgrade locking sim is a known problem but all I got was a "are you sure you did it right". I have an unlock code from ATT though, just can't use it because the phone doesn't ask for the code, just says "no sim, emergency calls only"
I have flashed different modems just to see if that would help, nope
I have searched and read every similar thread, I would search more but I really need to solve this quick. Sorry if I missed any details first time posting.
Thanks in advance.
Don't know if this will help since I haven't tried it, but I found this. Maybe this will allow you to enter the unlock code?:
If your Samsung is not asking for an unlock code and it only reads “Network Locked. Emergency calls only” or “Insert correct SIM card” you can use one of these two formulas:
#0111*UNLOCKCODE#
#7465625*638*UNLOCKCODE#
hmm both of them gave me mobile network available error, weird I would guess it wouldn't check for that.
,just to make sure , I just enter these on the keypad and press call right ?
With that type of code, you don't have to press call. If it is supposed to call up a menu or dialog, it will do so when the last digit is entered. If the phone does nothing when the last digit of the code is entered, then it is probably a code that is not recognized by the phone. So I guess those codes don't work for the SGH-I777. I don't know if this is dependent on firmware. I do know that unlock doesn't work the same on Jelly Bean. I've read the unlock methods don't work. See here. I guess you could flash ICS stock plus root and then use one of these.
or... can you call or chat with an AT&T tech support to ask how to apply the code in your situation?
I found a list of a lot of codes, tried some of the ones related to network lock, one of them asked for password, i entered it and it said unlock successful yet still not working. I just rooted to stock gingerbread still no sim error yet ATT worked and sent me a text for international rates.
I just don't know what happened whist upgrading to JB.
I have a similar problem where my unlock code that used to work no longer works. Just out of curiosity, does the Serial # shown by GalaxSimUnlock app match the one listed physically under your battery? I'm not aware of how to check for the serial number other than that app. On mine, I noticed it got zero'ed out, and if my hunch is correct, I think the unlock code recognized by the phone is based on that serial number (among other things), so the one supplied by AT&T won't work anymore. I'll have to get a new number based on that zeroed out serial number or change my serial number somehow.
Sorry I flashed another rom already but I will try to reinstall everything and check later today. Idk if the app works with gingerbread, it should.
Yes, it works with Gingerbread as I was able to use it. I was hoping that if I restored to Gingerbread, my serial number would come back. But no dice. I'm really curious to see what your serial number is.
just tried to check but the app keeps crashing on mine. I tried with anothe unlock app i got undefined under serial.
