I don't think it's possible to use it without a sim card. Though you can try enabling airplane mode and see if that works?

im looking for a site that can unlock it without sim how is it gonna cost

Did you steal it?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

got it from ebay

When you update the x10 to 2.1 andriod, you can use the phone without a SIM card.
Anyways, if you have the IMEI number and knows which company the phone came from, you can try http://www.cellunlocker.net/ to get the unlock code (I got mine at 7.99).

Sim Unlock Attachment - Unlock our HD2 without unlocking it?

Was wondering whether anyone's come across this or even tried it on the HD2..
So, the Sim Unlock Attachment (I-SmartSim 2008 for £5.50 on ebay) slides under your SIM card and your handset can then read it.. cool thing is that the handset remains unlocked, so we all get to hold on to our waranty deals..
So, has anyone tried it?
thanks
Anyone? (bumping it up..)
I tried something like it back in the days when i had an (dont know if i eaven dare to say it here ) iphone and that worked well. so i dont see why it shouldnt work on hd2

Yes it works all right except one thing. You can use your phone,make some calls but you can`t use internet.Search forum, it was something about it before

not using the internet wouldnt be a big problem for me cause i just need to use my Greek sim card when in Greece, and that would be for calls and texts only..
what about the rebel simcard? they even have a youtube video showing it works on an HD2 (even with internet). However this seller (only one result if you search for it on ebay), has one negative feedback from one guy that said it didnt work with their HD2... don't know...
I stuck my Gevey 3G SIm adapter in my HD2 today and it now works on AT&T for voice/SMS. I can confirm the Data is not working. It worked fine when I used to use it on the iPhone 3G back in the days....

I know that you were asking about I-SmartSim 2008 but Rebel Simcard is the one I was talking about. I'm quite sure that they are all the same.Same thing different name. I've tried Rebel Card with my HD2 when I was abroad and it worked all right, except internet.Also my wife had one with Iphone and was ok.Now I unlocked my HD2 and I dont have that problem any more. So maybe for an extra few quid will be better for you to unlock.

These rebel sim cards have been in the market for quite some time.
They seem to work well but you will face hardware problems soon.
First signs would be battery draining. The battery life will drop drastically once you start using it.

mm, that's not good.. but i guess if i want to keep my warranty, shouldnt be too big of a problem coping with poor battery.. it's only for a few weeks every year when abroad...

Use Xperia without Sim Card?

Hi people
I jusr recently switched from my beloved HD2 and got an Xperia X10 locked to vodafone Spain
Is there an unlocking solution for this device already?
Is there a way to backdoor meanwhile and be able to use the device without the Sim Card? Since the sim card is not correct it just stands in emergency call option at the bottom and cannot access no syncing options
All help is sincerely appreciated!
So, no answer?
I would love to use mine without SIM

i don't know how it is in spain, but can't you buy just only an prepaid simcard for vodafone? here in holland they are pretty cheap and no need to register your name, adress etc etc, just buy it in store here.
Hmm, actually this is a good idea

Yeah thats exactly what I did this afternoon, until theres a solution it will be fine. Anyhow I found a site link that for 15€ they send u the IMEI code.
Hope that does the trick
In xperia x10 is same Satio in Spain. It needs a sim card because don´t work.

Debranding the phone should resolve this issue with branded devices ,
but i update the firmware to generic version but without succes any advice
Unlock it and you will be able to use it w/o a SIM

Sim card not being read

The sim card isnt being read. The phone works and everything its just that it doesnt read it. It sounds as if there is something loose under the sim reader, any idea of what it could be? any help would be highly appreciated.
Have you ruled out it being a SIM card issue by putting in a different SIM?

10 mins ago was on the phone with tmo. OTA activation didnt work( like I told him it wouldnt)so its the sim card..you did say the phones works as in making calls and everything so how is putting in another phone going to make a difference?

He stated that his phone works fine, but it is not able to read his SIM card. I advised that he should try to put in someone else's SIM card to see if that works. If it does, it is a simple fix. New SIM and bam he's back in business. There was no talk of putting his SIM into another phone, although that would also let him know if his SIM card is or isn't working.
OP- report back once you try the different SIM and if the problem still exists, we shall delve deeper then. Hope it's an easy fix for you.
Ok thanks for the help, the phone is locked to bell mobility and I'm in the states :/I'm going tio try tio unlock it and then try it I'll let you guys know if it worked

[Q] Questions about Unlocking HD2 - Need Advice

I live in the US and i got 2 questions about unlocking my hd2:
1) whats the easist way to unlock it? what are the instructions?
2) is it possible to lock it back so it appears that i didnt void the warranty? how do i do this?
Hey koolxx,
To unlock your HD2 it is very simple you have to aquire yourself a valid unlock code to enter into your HD2. If you are a current T-Mobile customer then you can contact T-Mobile and request a code. Tell them you are going out of country for busness or o vacstion and you want to buy a prepaid sim card from a local carrier to avoid a high bill.Or you can go on Ebay and buy a unlock code and unock it that way.
As far as being able to relock your phone I really do not know if you can or not, buy I am leening toward not.

I think by unlocking, he meant rooting.....and yes, you can always unroot it.

If that is what he meant then you just have to flash HSPL to it as this is the only other kind of unlock you have for Windows Mobile. But I doubt that is what he meant cause he has already expressed in another thread that he does not want to flash HSPL as it will void the warranty. And just so you know rooting a phone is only done with a Andriod ROM as what you actually do when you root a Andriod ROM you gain full access to the kernel of the Linux that Andriod is running on top of. I also know from the other thread that koolxx is running a stock Windows Mobile ROM on his HD2. So I think he was refering to unlocking his HD2 to being able to use other carriers you know a sim unlock.

hi, t-macgnolia. its good seeing you again. and i do greatly appreciate that you still remember me and my other threads. and yes you are correct.. all i want to do is unlock my hd2 to use on other networks.
tmobile sent me an unlock code. but the instructions call for inserting a foreign SIM card, which i dont have. how do i unlock it without a foreign sim card?

Sorry but you have to have a sim card from the another carrier. I do not think it has to be a sim card from the carrier you want to use cause when you unlock it your HD2 will be abale to use any sim card. I suggest going and buying a cheap Go Phone (prepaid phone) from AT&T and using it. I think you will have to activate the sim card using whatever cheap phone you buy. Remember you are just buying it to get the sim card so nothing fancy. If you just went to another carrier they would make you sign a contract to get the sim card unless you told them you wanted to use your HD2 with the carriers prepaid plan. Then they would just charge you for the sim card and whatever it would cost to get call time, messaging,and data through their prepaid plan. Also be aware that when you switch to another carrier you will only get Edge for data signal as the internal hardware of the T-Mobile HD2 will only allow 3G with the T-Mobile network. So there is no work around to get 3G with another carrier shorts of upgrading the internal hardware, and I don't know if that is possible.

hi, T-Macgnolia. i dont know if the guy has a sim card from another carrier. i'm basically selling it on ebay. and i got a guy who's the winning bidder so far. so most likely the winning buyer of the phone will have a sim.

"Your sim card does not allow a connection to this network"

I just got this message on my phone and I have no idea how to fix it, I searched Google and tried just about everything I can. If I take my sim card out and put it in another phone if works great, I put it back in this phone and it doesn't work. Ive tried manually searching network, nothing. I've tried reflashing carbon ROM stock kernel and radio, nothing. I've tried toggling airplane mode, nothing. Wtf is going on here? I like this phone but I've never had so much trouble with a phone.

Sorry I think you may need to do a factory reset. Try backing up as much as you can off the phone and do the reset. GL My wife's touch 4g had the same issue when switching sim cards from her work blackberry to the touch 4g. Because the phone was brand new, there was no issue in doing a factory reset with the sim card installed.

i just got off chat with tmobile and they said its due to the fact of non payment (i guess i shouldnt buy a phone from craigslist anymore)

bad choice buddy , should have bought it straight from google ORRR , asked the owner for the imei so you can check if its clean , im a big craigslist person too , but you have to check things like that , i bought a xbox 360 for cheap that was in mint condition but it was console banned for hacking/piracy reasons.
EDIT tmobile is cracking down on people who buy phones for cheap on a contract and dont finish paying , they will block your phone from their networks.

Wow that sucks. So does that mean the IMEI is blacklisted on tmo for non payment? Did the tmo chat say anything about new owner and such?

tmobile wont care if you claim to be a "new owner" or if you even tell them you bought it from someone who jacked you off , if its blacklisted he's out of luck , the best choice he has is to contact tmobile and check the IMEI

Same problem
Hi there...
just got my Nexus yesterday. I'm from Brazil and a friend of mine got it from Play Store (unlocked, I guess). Here we have 4 main carriers, mine is OI. My Sim card works great in other devices (tested on Iphone 4S and Galaxy SIII). The device shows all 4 carriers, but when I tap on "OI", I got the same topic message.
Any ideas???
