Sim Tool Kit 6.0-11 - Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This App just showed up on my phone after a week it updated to 6.0 ive never seen this. is this a legit app? FYI (not on a prepay acct or sim)

Do you use some kind of mobile-banking app? I have a SIM Toolkit aswell and it is part of the id-check when I log in to my bank. From the app I can change pin etc..

Using x10 without any sim

Hello, is there a way to do so? I am in Canada, Rogers is provider, I did debranding as well.Any help appreciated.
just curious, if anybody unlocked theie phone, will it did the trick? like on my storm2, i remove sim, but i can do anything i want except to call out, just connection status stays SOS.
Mine is on Rogers in Canada and i paid 5$ to unlock it using: MobileInCanada.com
I think is a link somewhere here to get to the promo page (5$) otherway is 20$ to unlock it.
After you can use any sim (i use a 5 years old expired prepay ).
Probably is working without a SIM too.

you decade are my hero! been looking for a while to use my second x10 without service!!!!!
Hey guys, I got a Rogers X10 that I'm unlocking to use with Telus. I don't have a Rogers SIM to install tGentleBoot. Know a way to get past the Emergency Screen, without unlocking it?
(unlocking it Friday, but wanna use it now)
The phone will work without sim and on wifi only. However, that will cause the paid apps on the official Google market to disappear. If that happens, you have to reset the phone again.
I had this happen in both my unrooted X10 and my rooted HTC Magic. So, I don't do that anymore.
try airsim or wosim in market
its an extra app though wosim has a widget which can enable/disable wosim and does the above method for you
works with simlocked x10i
what if in my phone when i press the butter there is only power off option , theres no airplane mode?
Insert an inactive sim to bypass. I have a Rogers X10 and use an old Rogers sim whenever my active sim is in the berry

Bypassing SIM Screen

Is there any way to bypass the sim screen on the mytouch 3G? We got one and y brother wants to use it as an mp3 player/app runner but we don't use t mobile. We can't do anything without a sim currently. If we borrow a sim, root and flash a custom rom will this problem persist?
Nope you'll be good after you root. Just do what you said, borrow a SIM, setup a Google account, then root. You'd actually probably be good with just activating the first time as long as you don't have to reset the phone to factory settings.

Thanks, gonna root it asap

Mytouch 4g "Limited Service"

Has anyone had problems with this. No matter what rom, rooted or stock, my phone says "limited service" "emergency calls only". Both Tmo and Htc said send it in. Thought I would ask around first.
I had it rooted running Iced Glacier and all of the sudden, my phone says "limited service" and i dont have anything. No data or voice. My SIM card works fine in any of my old phones, just not this one. I have tried to unroot and root again, using all different roms, and yet still nothing.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? or what it could be? I want to send it in under warranty, except it was rooted and Im nervous they will be able to tell. (i have another post on how to unroot completely with no trace; here)
Yeah, I get that limited service when the phone switches from 4g to 3g and back. Frustrating to say the least.

it seems as if your phone is now SIM locked, but not to TMO. Try booting into hboot and choose sim unlock function there - this is how I unlocked my phone.
Thanks for the reply, but did you need an unlock code or file to unlock your phone? It is looking on my sd card for two files that I don't have...

Maybe your SIM died. Mine did last year with the same symptoms and a new SIM fixed the problem.

do you have s-off using gfree? (sticky in the dev forum). If you did, in hboot you should see an option to sim unlock the device. If you didn't do gfree yet, do it now and try.
Thanks...
And does that unlock for good? Or until you revert and unroot?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
It is unlocked for good unless you re-flash the part7* backup file gfree creates.
i get signal issues but only when coming in from the everglades which i chalk up to the phone looking for a strong tower in the area
Happened to me last week sim card was dead. Go to tmobile and they will replace it.

i am having the same issue. i am using simple mobile so i dont really need to unlock the phone to use it, the first day i got the phone i read the sim card without any problems, it was working fine for like 5 mins and then i got the limited service message. i unlocked the phone with a tmobile code. no luck. i went into the apn settings try changing the settings and it worked once but it doesnt work anymore, one thing i noticed i was able to switch from gsm/wcdma auto to gsm only but it doesnt do it anymore. i just wanted to know if u guys fixed this problem or if i should just send it to htc, i havent rooted my phone. would i have to pay any fee? am still under the warranty program.

Accounts won't sync after Unlocking...

Hi XDA, Happy New Year! But I have a question...
I recently unlocked my G1, and used a ATT sim card and a unlock code from T-Mobile/HTC to 'unlock' it. It works fine with my AT&T sim!
But it won't sync my Accounts (G-Mail, etc.) anymore...even when I put my T-Mobile sim back in, On the status bar It always come up 'Sign in Error for 'MyUserName'...
How can I fix this? I'm using a Modded G1 with the 2.1 Rom.

SIM card?

So I am coming from a Nexus 5 and I am on T-Mobile, what do I need to do to get a nano SIM card. My phone comes today
Sorry this should be in the Q and A section. Please move
You can either cut your SIM card into a nano sim card. Find a template online
Or use a sim cutter, or go to your local carrier store and ask for a new SIM (they may charge you).
My T-Mobile stores here have been good about not charging for them. But some may...

So the only difference is less plastic??? Seems this may be the easiest way.

If I do get a new SIM, how do I transfer all of my info from my old one? Will T-Mobile do that for me?

Realistically you should not have any data on your sim. Newer smartphones now utilize the cloud for storing contacts and the like. If you have not done so already I suggest you start using gmail and transfer your contacts from the sim card. Thay way once you receive your new phone, insert the sim, turn the device on and add your gmail account to your new phone, your contacts will automatically appear on the new device.
you can find step by step instructions here or google to get more: https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/4416038?hl=en
When I started my 6p, it asked if I wanted to transfer settings from older phone. Said yes and it transferred basic google account info from the Nexus 5 to 6p. Once that was done, I used wifi at that point to complete setup, where OS updated and apps were restored (assuming you had set that option on the google account to backup/restore app data). Later I installed the tmobile sim and did a 'change sim' on my phone on tmobile web site for my account. Some apps still needed to be configured though.

Easy Peasey to activate the new SIM with your current account info
I'm on Verizon and got a new sim sent to me in prep for the new 6p. It was easier for me to get the old sim working from my old phone. I had to cut it but when i put it in the new 6p it just worked and I didnt have to wait for any activations.
The new nano sim I ordered would not authenticate but the old sim cut up worked great.
