Well I successfully loaded the SE ROM and was unable to unlock. Use the phone for a few days with Cingular service and then I get the following message: "Insert SIM card and enter PIN, Emergency Calls Can still be made." Any ideas? The SIM Card works fine in other phones and the unlocking works for a short period. Also, I can do a soft reset and it clears this message and can make outgoing calls for like 15 minutes now then blam!
Any ideas would greatly be appreciated.
You have a flaky SIM connector. Try cleaning your SIM with alcohol and try if fumbling with the rubber that covers the SIM reproduces the problem.
I have an old Wallaby which I used (on O2 network) before I was given a mobile at work.
I've started to miss the facilities - so I've followed the instructions to remove SIMlock (uploaded xda-developers operating system).
Although I'm being told the phone is no longer simlocked it will not recognise SIM cards (even an 02 card from my wife's phone).
Getting a message to insert SIM and type in PIN number.
Any ideas???

Is it asking for pin or sid code, mamy sims come with a lock, I think O2 use 5555 as the default code. If it asks for sid the phone is still locked.
Is there any solution to start a magician without inserting the pin code.
(it mean that I have another solution to protect it)
Thanks
gguyaz: do you mean SIM card pin or password pin.
Sim card pin - diable the sim card pin in phone settings I believe.
Password PIN, disable the password in Settings.
If there's another issue, there is another thread on this that asked a similar question some months ago.

Or try Omega One Pass, it allows you to use the hardware buttons instead of the pin.

Also with PockenZenPhone can do this
I brought a 8125 from ebay it had a cracked screen. So I had an PPC 6700 that had a bad radio so I took the screen out of it and placed it in the 8125. Everything worked great but when I turned it on it cam up with the message " Invalid or missing SIM card". I placed my Tmobile SIM card in I turned on the device and it reads the same thing. I read all the posts that I can find about this and they really didn't have much about it. I noticed that its searching for the network buy looking at the signal indicator but I also noticed the the led to sho that the phone was on doesn't blink. On some of the posts that I read it stated that if someone put the wrong code in to many times that the phone will be "counter blocked". I think maybe thats what happened with the last owner of the phone did. I at first unlocked the sim with the sim unlocker thinking that was the problem was but it still didn't work. My question is if it goes in to the counter blocked mode does it prevent the software from unlocking the sim. My other question is what is the file's name that when you place a sim in the phone that it runs to enter the unlock code on the phone? I was thinking maybe if I run that file manualy that maybe it will get the phone out of the counter blocked mode and then I can try running the software unlock again. Things that I have done to try to get it to work was sim and cid unlock, flashed tmobile rom to the device checked the contacts in the sim holder to make sure they are touching the sim card. Any ideas?
Sounds like it may not be a software problem. If the device was legitimately software blocked, it would display that, instead of 'invalid/missing SIM'. If it's IMEI blocked, it would have accepted the SIM but been unable to connect to the network.
The problem is most likely either the SIM itself or the onboard SIM reader. Try obtaining another SIM card and seeing if the device will read it.
Hey guys...i've just installed onyx 4.7 WM6.1 on my HTC Touch, and it never selects the network when it starts, i have to turn off the phone the cellular radio and turn it on again everytime the phone starts to select the network so any one got answer to this problem please?!
Mmm, this problem is quite unheard off.
Anyway, I have a quick solution for you, go to:
Start -> Settings -> Go to the Personal Tab -> Phone -> Go to Network Tab -> and under Network Selection you might want to set that to manual and select the operator of the network.
Do remember, when you go and roam (Travel Overseas) Make sure you set that back to automatic, so you can connect to other countries networks.
i have made it on manual already and i didnt work either...look i have removed the sim while installing the rom..mayb i should try and install it again with the sim in the mob?!!
mmm, have you tried other operator's sim?
If they can work, means your sim fault.
Vice Versa, if the new sim card dont work, thats most likely your phone's fault?
Have you tried hard-resetting?
well...about that i found what's wrong and i installed 2 different roms and the same problem exists!!
the problem is when the fone starts it doesnt ask me for the pin while it requires the pin 2 start....soo when i enter the pin in the phone setting it runs normaly
so what i've currently done is making it not 2 ask 4 the pin code
but i still dont like that option but i dont know what 2 do?
in the same way when i put my sim in my old fone..it runs normaly and asks me 4 the pin before it starts?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
mayb this's a radio problem?!!!!!!!!! i tried to install the new one 3.39 but i'm still facing the same problem?!!
What pin can that be?
Is it your sim card pin?
Check with your operator if there is a 'PIN Code' locked on your sim card.
yes..the sim card pin!

Click to collapse
Yup, call your operator for details.
Your operator is the person who charges you for your monthly bill!
They will guide you through it, just tell them that you lost your PIN code for your sim card.
I'm going to try to downgrade the radio version...but i want 2 be sure if that is ok, and wont destroy anything in my phone
Yup, no problem, its okay to do that.
Whats the problem now
