Hi! The tool lokiwiz 0.2b works fine. I can use the MDA for with my provider in Austria but always when i turn on my phone (book in to the service net) i get a service messege(sms called NETWORKMESSAGE or in german Netzwerknachricht) form my provider with something like <O> when iam in the Austrian State Oberösterreich. <W> when iam in the state Wien. ANd <N> when iam in Niederösterreich. So i am sure that this is a information message where iam.
Knows anybody how i can stop this kind of messages.???
Thanks
I have the same thing too. But it seems to be happening when I've not use my phone for a long period of time (e.g. doesn't give me the message everytime I switch on the phone) It seems to be some messages from the network. I have it from my UK O2 network as well, it gives me a bunch of number which seems like telephone area code.
BTW, I think you might want to change the title for this. I don't think it has anything to do with the unlocking. BTW, i unlock my phone with loki too.

Hi, just got an MDA compact that was sim-locked to T-Mobile
After reading thru this forum i unlocked it on http://www.imei-check.co.uk
Only now i can use EVERY other UK SIM card inside it apart from virgin mobile. Every time i stick a virgin SIM inside it, i get the message "call ended" when i try to dial any number from the MDA and the message "calls are currently not being connected to this number" when i dial the MDA from another phone
Now i know it's not an issue with the SIM card because the virgin SIM works fine in my XDA 2 and in any other phone, so i'm guessing it's an issue with the MDA itself.
Has anyone else had problems like this with the MDA compact and if so, how did you resolve them?
Also this unit won't let me flash it with a new OS, every time i extract the original ROM, NTRW.exe gives me the message "OriginalROM.nb1 cannot be read - the file exists". Any help on this would be greatly appreciated too
OS ROM: 1.01.00 WWE
Radio ROM: 1.00.10
D (no idea what this is): 1337.36
okay, starting to think the MDA i found has been reported lost or stolen.
I'm guessing the reason that i keep getting the message "call ended" is due to the fact that virgin mobile piggybacks the T-Mobile network and so virgin was blocked off as well since T-Mobile blocked the IMEI. (I don't want to try to risk putting in a T-Mobile SIM in the phone so i'm not sure)
I can't return the phone to it's owner either since the MDA was wiped clean when i got it (owner musta forgot to charge it).
Ah well it still makes a good PDA
Well that's solved the problem of the "call ended" message. Anyone else who has that message after buying a phone off the net, you probably bought one that was nicked and resold.
It will be blocked on all networks unfortunately, only good as a phone outside UK so at least you can use it on holiday abroad.
hello guyz, i have been asking this question since a while here but got no answer.
has anybody in this forum ever tried the services of IMEI ceck for unlocking the UNIVERSAL, they are the only guyz in the market claiming to have the MAGIC STICK that unlocks those complicated phones, anyway i was just wondering and would love to know if anybody here has tried unlocking his UNiversal throught them.
the reason of my question is, can this be logical, that they are the only genuises on earth getting to unlock the UNI
and thanks alot
Try searching the forums, it is what the search button is for. :wink:
In answer to your question, there are people who have used them, but there is an unlocker on the way.
Also, what model universal is it? Some vendors supply the unlock code for around £20 > £30
lol thanks bro, but i know about this Provider solution, the thing is i have a MDA PRO, and ive got him through the internet, T mobile told me that they dont have its IMEI in thier database, and based upon no UNLCOK code what i find **** is that i have no idea whas wrong with my MDA PRO and its IMEI is not reported stolen, so im sure its not an illegal deal or something, my only hope is an UNLOCK TOOL nothing else
It could be from T-Moblie is a different country, andas such the counry that you are in would not have record of another countri's imei.
I have an MDA Pro from T-Mobile UK, I am in the UK. According to them my IMEI is not in their database either, so they can not unlock the phone to work with my tmobile sim.
I am beginning to think they are a bunch of idiots
is it actually lock the o2 version of the universal dosent seam to be locked
You guys with Tmobile phones not being in the database, have you considered buying a pay as you go SIM and registering it with the IMEI. You can often get such SIMs for free anyway.
Not sure if it will help though!

well thanks for the answers.
but ive gone even further than what you will think, i made a T-mobile subscription in order to be able to use my universal. and i tried calling em to get the unlock code, but they said they dont have it and my IMEI is not in thier database, its bull**** i mean i got the devcie new not a second hand or used or anything, and it got all its DUtch user manuals and CDs so it cant just be from another country, its a dutch phone from the dutch T-mobile, but yet they dont have my IMEI this is way toooo wiered, i dont know where did my device come from lolll. and one thing im sure of, its not stolen
SOS
Dear All,
Is it possible to unlock the SIM on universal
Is tit possible to change the language on the phone from french to English
Can you please guide me on how to do the above as I dont speak french
Is it possible to save the current settings on the phone if the above fails
as the operator sayzs that the warrantz on the phone is void if the language is changed or the SIM is unlocked
My current configuration
operatpor 7.113.5.132
Rom version 1.13.51 FRE
Rom Date 22-09-2005
Radio 1.03.00
Protocol Version 42.36.P8
Ext rom 1.13.132 FRE
abellah30, 3 posts asking same thing? and one question has been asnswered in this thread....
Currently it is NOT possible to unlock the universal without sending to imei check or getting the code from the operator.
If you bought the phone with a subscription, phone up T-Mobile and tell them to send you a new phone. They told me that is what they [T-Mobile UK] would have to do as they didn't have the IMEI details

The unlock codes are only n the database after a while
also some phones are never in the database and they need to contact the manufacturer
Hi everyone,
I Recently purchased a t-mobile mda from ebay. The phone was locked to the t-mobile network, but i did manage to unlock it as im using the phone in Canada on the Fido network. Im having a problem sending and receiving MMS messages. When I try to send one, it says can not connect. And when i checked the servers, the only one available is the T-mobile mms server and it won't let me create a new one. Is there anything I can do so I can use MMS here in canada?
I don't have an answer.
But I know how frustrating it can be trying to find a solution.
Here is something one of the mods setup to help us find answers.

Your phone is probably "Application Locked". SIM unlocking allows you to use a sim from another provider but the data side is still locked down... try to get the application unlocker I had to do that for my t-mobile dash... also you could try changing the rom to an original HTC rom, provided you can find one

Where did you learn the existense of such "Application Locked"? I haven´t heard about it untill now while I was reading your post. I have an 8525 that works at very low data connection speed, same phone flys when I use it with another service provider SIM, the funny part here is that my 8125 works great with both operators. So please redirect me to where you read or heard about "Application Locked" or tell us where one can get the application unlock program?
Thanks

Orange ROMs lock more than the basic phone functions. I unlocked my Tytn II's SIM (Orange France) and I can now make and receive calls with another provider's SIM card. Several orther functions, however, remain lock because descending lists offer only Orange as a choice. I suppose one has to get rid of the Orange ROM and use either the official HTC one or one of the bette cooked ROM.

Hi Lugi93,
I have paid already someone from ebay for the unlock code and he has provided me the Network unlock code so i have already unlocked the "network lock" but now the phone is asking me for the "Simlock code" and that is my basic problem.
Let me know,
Cheers,
I

Thanks guys anyway for your suggestions.
any answer to this i got the same problem unlocked with code now asking for service provider code tryed 234-33 but no luck any one can help thanks
Hi!
I have a network unlocked HTC Dream (english T-mobile-version) that I bought used and unlocked. The previous user hade Tele2 as his operator but I used Telia. I´m now in dispute with him because the phone never worked with any calling och messaging but data works fine after manual APN-settings. I have now recieved the unlock code he got to unlock the phone, but with it being unlocked already it doesn´t really help me right now.
The plan is to somehow revert back to a locked phone and unlock it with my SIM sitting inside, and by that maybe fixing the problem.
So how do I make the phone go back to being locked to T-mobile?
Best regards,
Christoffer
It sounds like it might be IMEI locked on the network. T-mobile in the UK will allow blacklisted phones to connect even though they cannot work and there seems to be a loophole where data gets through. Maybe the case is similar, ring your operator from another phone and ask them.

Well I am not sure why you can access data but can't make calls. It would seem to be some type of carrier problem or something I don't know about. I do know that you definitely cannot re-lock it, once it is unlocked it stays that way unless tmobile can do something with it. Something is either wrong with the phones hardware or your carrier, if it is a software problem maybe try flashing a new rom and re-enter your APN stuff.
Try making a emergency call like 911 or whatever, if that doesn't work something is screwed.
I tried it out this weekend with a friends SIM who is on Tele2, and it worked there with no problem! It is so weird that it acts like it was network locked, even though it shouldn´t be.
I´ve seen that a few have posted about the same problem, mainly with the Dream but also with the Magic. It comes up as "Telia" but follows with a "(No Service)". About 24 hours after I recieved it connected to the network and worked fine for about 10 hours but then it stopped working just as I got a MMS I was about to download. If I try to manually connect to the network from the list of operators, it says that my SIM "isn´t allowed to connect to this network".
I´ve downgraded and upgraded Radio to try to solve this, nothing worked.
I dont know alot about foreign networks but if you can get data then you should get all services. That message you got "SIM isn't allowed to connect to this network" is what you should get when your not unlocked. Or if the SIM is trying to use another carriers cell tower, your sure you got the APN settings correct? It sounds like you have some sort of hardware problem if the switching of Radios didn't help. Can you try the same SIM in another phone and see what happens?
I use the same SIM daily in my old phone the Dream was supposed to replace, works like a charm with everything.
It can´t be a hardware problem when the phone works flawless with Tele2, or can it?
Well it is just weird the data works and not calls. I am just guessing what it could be. Maybe something with the carrier? It's a odd problem.
Did you ring your operator? Put the SIM card in the phone, turn it on, then ring Telia from another phone. They should be able to tell you something. If it is blacklisted, they do not always share this with other networks.

That might be a thing to try. I have been in contact with Telia and gave them my IMEI-number but even during the short period the phone worked (by chance) they say that IMEI has never been logged in their system.
