hi there,
i´ve got here a x01ht from Softbank Japan, with japanese on it. would like to change its rom for a wwe, with english, in order to do that, would have to unlock its CID. The problem is that phone does not accepts active sync connection, because asks for a code (no, it´s not subsidy code, device asks for it even without sim).
i did the hard reset, but still keeps asking for a code, and can´t get into phone´s menu to do cid unlock manually. i took a pic of the screen, but got blur, it´s attached, if anyone knows japanese.. any kind of help is welcome.

Is there a software or any tricks to by-pass the phone lock (password) on the T-Mobile MDA? I'm new at this, if there is a way please show me step by step. thanks in advance.

Have you tried a hard reset or a new rom?
If you mean the simlock: search for a thread on "lokiwiz", that enables you to remove the simlock from your phone and CID unlock your phone so you can flash another ROM on it. If you are talking about the password, do a hard reset or flash a new ROM on it.
I think I'm getting the same problems as the OP. I also bought a MDA off ebay, that's still locked to T-mobile, but I dont have a T-mobile SIM card. So I can't use the "lokiwiz" program because I can't even access the OS. I also cant get my IMEI number for the same reason. So I can't buy a code online. So I'm stuck. I'm also not in the US so I can't borrow my friend's SIM to unlock it or anything like that. Would flashing the MDA to a new rom stop this? I'll appreciate any help, thanks.

Hi, first off, how do you do a hard reset? and I tired new rom but I am not sure if i did it right or not . I have just read the in t-mobile site to perform a hard reset but due to phone lock, i can not hit start and go into settings.. Please help! I know this is not a sim lock. The phone is asking for a 4 digit phone lock password.. any ideas?
For a hard reset you need to hold the comm-button on the upper left corner of the phone and the camera-button on the right side of the phone while it boots up. the esiest way is to do a soft reset and then hold the two buttons till you get the installation screen on your phone.
I think this thread is a bit confusing, since there are two locks being discussed in here right now.
babysheep is having troubles with the password that is set by the previous owner, that can be solved by the hard reset as said by freezor. His advice is a fine way to hard reset, the T-Mobile way has the same results, but is not possible due to the password. Use freezor's method and you should be ok.
Jugges is having simlock problems. Can you contact the seller to ask for the IMEI code? Alternatively, you can perhaps buy a T-Mobile prepaid SIM, although I am not sure that would work. Perhaps prepaid SIMs are also locked from the phone. Flashing a new ROM will NOT affect the SIMlock, so that is no option for you. Perhaps you better post your problem in the lokiwiz thread, perhaps they can help you better than we can here.
I think I should have read into Lokiwiz deeper. I didnt realize that you can still sync with your computer when there is no SIM installed. This allowed me to install the Lokiwiz cab, and unlock it. So everythings working now. Thanks for the help.
Hard Reset
I am also attempting a hard reset; the problem when I do the soft reset while holding the com and picture buttons, the screen that appears is 3 wide horizontal bands colored red, green, and blue. The only text is IPL 1.08, then a little below that is SPL 1.08. Any ideas?
I just purchsed a used Cingular 8525 from USA ,when I use my old activated Orange sim card(I live in Dominican Republic);simlock comes up with the message:
“Network is locked, please input unlock code”
Recently, a wrongly tried to unlock my device with an incorrect codes but “no use” ,now my cell phone indicates :
“You have tried 6 times to wrongly unlock the phone, wait for timeout “
What should I do?(I live in Dominican Republic) who can help?

Try the free POF ver 3a unlocker, but you may have screwed yourself since some lock codes after so many wrong attemtps screw the device forever.
Dear developers,
I'm sorry, i'm a noob, and it didn't take loang to brick my device. So now: My screen shows the o2 bubbles and doesn't go further. In red letters is written 02 2.18.0.0. Well, i can enter the bootloader, but i don't know which programm to take. My device is not cid unlocked, thats why my trails failed with wrong vendor id. What i found is a programm named os62.nb, i read it would be for ALL german users. But tell me - what have i to do with this?
Thanks a lot,
Costa 12
If you go to your O2 website account... see if they have an RUU available, or some type of update. You need to find the stock rom for your phone.
Hello XDA, recently bought myself a leo. I turn the phone on it displays the loading screen etc, then the inital HTC Sense screen, it then immediatley goes to a page saying "Network is locked, please input unlock code"
Now i've tried to code on my sim, no dice, i've reset the phone to factory and tried it, no luck. I phoned virgin and they said its a faulty device and i should exchange it.. Now being my birthday and im inpaitent i don't wanna wait for them to change it.. is there a way i can flash the ROM or something? Doesn't in need HSPL installed?
Any help would be appricated.
My HD2 on Virgin came totally unlocked (can use any SIM) with standard HTC ROM.
Does sound like yours has a problem.
hmm, weird so theres no way to get around it?
Hi,
I have lg g2(D802) with Orange simlock and I just wondering that is it possible to remove simlock by flashing kernel or rom?
I have tried to remove it by code but when I enter 2945#*802# and select any option, I get the message that the phone is permanently locked.
No. you need to buy an unlock code.
It's 1.7 - 1.9 $, it's cheap if you ask me.
I have tried that but as I wrote in first post I can't do that because when I enter 2945#*802# and select any option, I get the message that the phone is permanently locked.
Maybe the device is blacklisted or something. Or wrong code has been entered few times. Try other types of unlock or try inserting unsupported sim

I have exactly the same problema. My operator gives me wrong codes and now it say that it is my fault.
So I have my LG g2 802 rooted and I wonder how to unlock it, beacause of the bad operator behaviour (Vodafone) I just want to change my service provider asap, but I just very happy with my current phone.
so, does anybody some new ideas about how to unlock a "permanent blocked" phone?
Thanks in advance
