I might go back to egypt or something, maybe a vacation, but i dont want to take my sim with me, and airplane mode sometimes resets, can someone help me find a way to use the phone without a sim card?
I think it's network locked, Mine's locked to rogers also and I can't use it without a rogers sim card. so, best chance is to unlock it or try rooting...
What do you mean by airplane mode resets?
sent from my x10i that is banging for a 2.1 upgrade. ...
My airplane mode sometimes goes away and reverts back to the service...and it is rooted....

Maybe that would be an option if rogers unlocked their phones...know anyway to do it home made for free ?

did u check for enable data/internet/mobile network?
i did a sim card activation a while ago and internet stopped working so I started calling t-mobile, turned out data was turned off..lol
its not just data thats not working. The phone wont connect to tmobile. It would not find any network. Just shows me a x above the network signal bars. I have even tried a factory wipe. Nothing works. I fear it might be the s=off state thats causing it.

If you've tried different roms already it could be hardware

Factory reset?

I've done that but it did not work even though in stock rom or cook rom.
Could also possibly be a problem with the network... Masts do break down. Have you tried your sim in a different phone?

It Damn well might be a Network issue. I'm Not from Australia, but I've been having the Same issue as you for at least a Month! Call your phone company and Complain... I Did and at least got Credited $!
Good Luck!

This is just a shot in the dark but I was hoping to avoid having to buy a sim card for my crappy travel phone again. Am I correct in assuming that, apart from WiFi, there's no way I'll be able to use my Epic while in Australia?

hello, im new to the xda community and android and i was hoping i could get help if possible so i bought this atrix off a friend for $60 just to start getting into android, so the problem is that when i insert a sim card and the bars are crossed out. i tried reflashing the baseband/radio to newer ones but the problem persists and keeps saying out of service under settings-> about phone-> status. also under network type says unknows, so i was hoping it has a fix which for the price i payed for i like it as a media player but im also looking to use the hspa+ speeds. yesterday i did get 1 bar and carrier name but for only 1-2 seconds.
edit: im trying to use it on at&t (forgot to mention the carrier)
this is what i get...
What network are you trying to use it on?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
im using at&t
go to settings-wireless-mobile-networks
access point names push the four squares button on the bottom left reset to default and choose hspa+
this is a flashable apn.ziphttp://db.tt/C0OdFBWr reset apns to default afterward and try to reinsert sim and power up
I'll try this tomorrow since im not near a computer right now and i'll post the results.

I have a very week signal at home, and I see the same screen like yours
so make sure you have a strong signal before you determine it's a h/w issue
thanks for all your guy's help, i ended up giving the phone to my brother so he can use as a media player. i really liked the phone so im probably going to get a working one
do you guys suggest another phone other than the atrix (looking for a 4g/hspa+ one)

The SIM card may be locked to the device it was activated on. I suggest going to a T-Mobile store to see if they can help.

i tried 3 sim card ... DId they lock all the sim cards?? .. thanks for the suggest i will go to t mobile today
It is likely that they lock the cards to the device that the card is activated with. It seems like it is the only possible reason that you can't use T-Mobile cards.

I went to t-mobile. They tried another sim car and the phones was the same no sim... the said that the problem was with the phone cuz the sim cards are news and working on other phones... i dont know why the problem is only with t-mobile sim cards.. they say that if the phone was from t-mobile they could change me for another phone but it is at&t.... do u you think that it will be any problem if i go to at&t and tell the that my phone is unlocked but it doesnt read t-mobiles' sim cards

They could help. Might as well try. It is a very weird situation. If other SIM cards are working with it, it shouldn't be the phone...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes the problem is only with t-mobile... but i will take the phone to at&t tomorrow

Is it possible that you didn't unlock all the bands on your device? There is a tutorial around here somewhere that shows how to unlock all the bands for use with absolutely any carrier. From my understanding it is different then just unlocking with a code.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes but it should said invalid sim car or ask me for that code when i insert t-mobile sim card... but the phones says no sim.. it doesnt even read the sim.... and when u unlock with a code i think is like factory unlock cuz my father unlock his phone with a code and his phone works fine
