Hi all,
I have a LG G2 D802 ( bought it year ago , no provider, installed my old T mobile sim) and i installed a new ROM but after the reboot it was asking my PIN
So i used my PIN that i always use and it denied it. So i tried the original PIN from the SIM Card holder but stil denied. Tried using PUK code and recover the PIN also denied.
No it says SIM LOCKED all the time.. Please help with solving my problem i tried searching on forum and google but its all for network locked phones like T mobile
ok so i installed a other ROM and its working again. So maybe the other ROM was missing files or something for proper network.

Hi,
i've new problem with my S300+!
Yesterday my phone worked well, today I see the following message:
"The SIM card is missing. You can still make emergency calls if your service provider supports it".
I tried to switch the sim card to another phone and the sim works correctly, then i tried to put another TIM sim card on the s300+ and the message is showing too.
What's happened?
Originally the s300+ was SIM locked for SFR sim. But when i bought it, it was unlocked to sim free.
Two weeks ago i've upgraded the radio rom to latest version.
Reading the other device's forum, i've saw that problem may be an hardware problem. How can check if the problem is caused by hardware ?
Can I try to re-unlock the phone? or it is effectless?
Thanks in Advance!
can you try a SFR sim in the phone?
see if it works on that sim.
do you know the person you got the phone from?
how was the phone unlocked?
you could try unlocking the phone again.
I can't try a sfr sim!
I'm in Italy and I've bought the phone in France.
I don't kown the person that have sell the phone, and i don't kown ho the phone was unlocked.
I know that the phone works well for 3 weeks and then not!
I 'm tring to reunlock the phone.
if you do a search on this forum you will find the files needed to sim unlock your phone.
when you have done, may be your phone will be ok again.
On the down side to that may be the person that sold you the phone has reported it lost or stolen and its been blocked/locked if that is the case i dont know what you can do.
I have just unlock the phone, but nothing is changed!!!!
I've also checked my imei on this site:
http://www.amta.org.au/default.asp?Page=405
and it not seems reported as lost or stolen...
I bought a S300+ (SFR Locked) in January 2008 and I unlocked by myself using tools found on this board, it still work fine but with a Vodafone Italy SIM, but sometimes I use a TIM Sim too.
I don't think that your is a lock problem, from the message you get at the powerup sound like an hardware problem but you should try an hardware reset how last option if you didn't it before.
I've made an hard reset, but nothing happens!
Also I've tried to flash a new roms (an italian rom and the original rom), but was not the solution!
I'm not sure where is the problem, because the phone worked well for about 3 weeks, than suddenly shows the missing sim card message....
IS there a site to verify if the imei is blocked? i've try www.ama.org.au
Is There a program or a tool to verify the integrity of hardware, especially for ths sim hardware? or a datasheet of sfr 300+?
I've had the same problem on my trinity and it turned out that I needed a new sim card because the old one burned out after four years of use. This may or may not be your problem.
I solved my problem by inserting a little paper between the SIM and the support lol
Hi,
I have a locked Spanish xperia x2. Following the suse update procedure reported in the forum I managed to load the GENERIC_UK_R3AA035_CABS.rar. After alla the cab installation the langauage is finally English but X2 gives me “unknown sim error”. What I am missing? thank and regards

Does the sim card work in a different phone?
Can you get a replacement sim card?
I remember that I had some issues with my phone one morning and I happened to walk by an official T-Mobil store while in downtown Chicago. It turned out that a number of specific, older, sim cards did not work due to an update on the network. So the T-Mobil guy just copied my sim to a new one and i was on my way with a working sim/phone.
One small point to know: I had the sim card for about 8 years. It was still Voice Stream (now T-Mobil). So it was a really old sim.
I have 2 new sim card working perfectly in my old X1. For none of them I have to insert pin code in X1.
In X2 I insert the pin code and then receive the error message. May this be due to the fact X2 was locked?
But shouldn't have been the loading I did of
GENERIC_UK_R3AA035_CABS.rar.
unlocking it?
what am I missing?
to unlock my X2 is GENERIC_UK_R3AA035_CABS.rar enough or should I purchase on the net an unlocking code?
thanks
no, you have done everything right so far. now just do the sues upgrade again and it'll boot the english rom (based on what cabs you downloaded on your phone) and your phone should be working fine. tell me how everything turns out. and good luck

Flashing a different language/rom has NOTHING to do with the fact that your phone is SIM LOCKED. And it will stay sim locked until SIM is UNLOCKED. But not with flashing a language or rom or anything via SEUS.
Hi,
I have a Defy MB525 on T-Mobile running CM 7.2. The phone is getting old and has some hardware problems, so I bought a more gently used one on eBay. I've rooted the new one and successfully installed Bootmenu, 2ndInit, and CM 7.2, but when put my SIM card in it, it wants an unlock code. I tried the soft unlock method discussed here, but no success. I then tried the troubleshooting recommendation involving airplane mode and terminal emulator, but that didn't work either. I then got the idea to backup my "old" phone and restore it to the "new" one, and that went smoothly, *BUT* while I no longer get prompted for a SIM unlock code, there is an "x" next to the service bars and the phone indicates "no service." Both old and new phones have EPU93_U_00.59.01 baseband, old phone does get service, while new one does not. I'd love to hear any advice people may have. Oh, new phone was on Moviestar service . . . sorry for the stupid question, but when I've been prompted for a SIM unlock code is it Movistar's unlock code that I'm being prompted for or is it T-Mobile's? I assume that SIM unlock code is associated with the phone and not the particular SIM card itself--is that right?
Thanks,
Doug
I guess what you need to do is install Baseband switcher 4.1 or 4.0 and configure it so it grabs the correct baseband

I got a locked Tmobile h872 that I put TWRP and flashed diferent roms so I get rid of the Tmobile Lock thing.
Suddenly it just wont read my sim card anymore. Ive tried reset, change sim, flash other rom, kernel...nothing.
It just doesnt reads the sim card ! Any idea? Its been working for few weeks and just stoped. I wonder if thats a hardware issue not software.
