Dear all,
I have an issue with my Omnia 7 and need your help. My phone is Unlocked T-Mobile Brand. I can use SIM cards of several company except the one I use regularly. When I insert this SIM, phone is SIM locked and phone function is not working at all. When I press on phone tile, it brings me to home screen. SIM card from other providers work fine. So it is strange to me.
Could you help me? I want it to work with this SIM.
Thanks
That sounds very strange. Surely it must be something to do with that particular SIM card if your phone is SIM unlocked and other providers are working?

no work around i know of
Hi all
Wondering if anyone can shed any light on this. I've just sold my HTC Tattoo (which is locked to Orange) to a friend. I had been using this phone on o2, it was possible due to an ismart-sim that I had in there. I sold the i-smartsim with the phone so that he could use the phone with his vodafone sim.. but it is not working.
As the phone starts, it asks for his PIN code but then won't register on the network after it has powered up. Without the ismart in there, it rejects the sim card outright - so it is def having some effect.
The only difference we can see is the o2/vodafone sim that I have has only 6 connection points on it, vs the 8 on his sim card. Because the i-smart sits between the sim and the phone it will prevent these extra two points from connecting.
Anyone know why the vodafone sim is different, and if it can be changed for a 6 connection version?
hi!
i recently bought an omnia 7 on ebay, t-mobile locked.
due to i have a vodafon contract, i unlocked it online, with imei unlock.
now the phone accepts my sim card, but i keep getting "no service".
today i bought a t-mobile sim card, just to try, and it is the same.
when i am changing sim cards, the network profile app changes the settings.
i flashed another rom, found here (jj6 uk), i updated to 7720, nothing helps.
i guess it isnt the sim card reader, cause the network profile app recognises any sim card.
is there an antenna problem or just some software thing?
can i fix the antenna by myself, if it is broken or sthing?...
i fall in love with this phone, i dont want to get rid of it...
any suggestions appreciated.
Having a problem with a Telstra HD2 model.
With a Telstra SIM in the phone, I can make and receive calls. When I insert a Vodafone SIM into it, I cannot make or receive calls. Call hangs up straight away.
Device is not network locked as HTC phones are not locked with Telstra. Bars display in task bar.
Tried it with Windows 6.5 (factory default) and Android custom ROM. Currently on custom ROM.
Any thoughts?
I had a similiar problem a few years ago and all i had to do was get a new sim card. I was told i had damaged my sim card some how but i was able to save the contacts, transfer them over to the new sim T-mobile gave me and I have not had another problem since.
If you have access to another phone try and insert both sim cards you have in the other phone. If you have problems in the other phone with the sim card thats not working you can safely say its the sim card thats not working correctly and not a phone issue.
Thanks for the reply Craze.
My SIM's do work as I use my Telstra SIM (that works in the HD2) in my old Nokia and my Vodafone on my Galaxy Nexus Prime.
So on the HD2, my Telstra SIM works where I'm able to receive and make calls and my Vodafone is the opposite.
Could it be the phone? I'm hoping that it is so that I can fix it.
Could it be the network providers? If so, then I'll call them which I've already done but they couldn't give me an answer as to why my Voda SIM does that in the HD2.
So I purchased a used note 3 ( N900A )
I just switch to straight talk. So I had a full size sim and cut it down to fit my note 3 . When I try to go into my apn setting it says insert a sim or something like that.
I know the sims registering , to the phone I can read stuff from it.
So has any one went down the road I am . Is my sim locked or something like that.
Also there is an app called "Sim App." it will first say icc-id and give what looks like about 15-16 numbers then click ok it reads imei check sum gives 4 digits next reads random number gives 8 numbers.
then asks for an unlock code . If entered wrong it will say you have X amount of trys lefts.
Does this have anything to do with why my sim card is not registering to the phone?
Do any sim card works in the phone? Does your sim card work in other phones? Was the phone tested with a sim card before purchase? Was the phone locked to AT&T?

Yes if I switch the card to the other phone . It works.
Im not sure if this matters the orginal phone was a throw away`alcatel. Its not a smart phone.
Are you using the SIM card in another phone that also uses a micro sim? Does the note 3 recognize any SIM cards?

I only have this one sim .
The note is reading the sim card with certain aps . You know how if you up power up a phone , missing a sim it will say so if you pull down the top banner usually with a message like insert sim. When you pull down the top banner it doesn't say that . There is no warning about missing a sim . So it recognizes it has one . I can read stuff off the sim card when i open certain aps that are meant to access sim cards but when I go to change APN setting it will say insert sim card to access network settings.
Without another sim card to try in the phone, it could be the way the sim card was cut or there is something wrong with the phone.
Is the phone sim unlocked? Did you try a sim card in the phone before buying it?

I dont think the phones sim is unlocked.
No I didnt try a sim . It was from a family member so Im not to worried. The sim card works in my throw away straight talk phone.
How do you unlock the phones sim?
BTW thank you for your help.
In order to determine if the phone is sim unlocked, power off the phone, insert a sim from another carrier, and power up the phone. If phone asks for a network unlock code, the phone is not sim unlocked and you will need to get an unlock code.
Was the Note 3 n900a from AT&T?
