SimLock update question? HELP?!?! - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

Hello all.
I just made one update to my Qtek S100, but now its asking me for the SimLock code, what is that?
I try'd to put my PIN code, but it's not it.
I don't know what code is this and I can't use the phone.
I try'd a 1.13 rom and 1.12 Rom and both ask for the simlock code when I restat the phone.
Help.

sim lock is there to prevent you from using this phone with another telco. However, qtek shoudnt have their phone locked to anyone. Tell us about what have you done on your SIM card and which ROM are you using previously and now.

Hello!!
I have a question:
i have bought spv e650 that is locked to orange can i unlocked it by instaling other rom (that dont have simlock)??
and if it is posible what rom to install?? VOX?? DOPOD??
or if it is possible can i unlock my curent rom?? cid and sim
Oki, two little things I learned...
There are at least three types of lock.
SIM-LOCK - You're locked on one provider
CID-LOCK - You're locked to one "manufacturer"
APP-LOCK - You can't install some stuff on your phone.
While the APP-LOCK can be disabled by simply using a registry editor (do a search, you'll find tons of answes), the other two are a bit more complex to get rid of.
CID-LOCK prevents you from installing a ROM from a different brand or distributor. Example, you bought a e650 and you want to install the non branded HTC rom? You can't. It will tell you "Invalid vendor id".
For this check the Bootloader thread, some people here can do MAGIC.
For the SIM-LOCK... Well, either you pay your provider to unlock it for you or you go to a company able to do it. Still no way of doing this on our own.
Ka.
so if i remove cid-lock i can instal other ROM, but if i'll do that i will no longer have sim-lock?? is there a ROM that is whitout sim-lock??
Sim lock
Hi
Even if you flash the htc rom that is not sim locked it will not remove the sim lock as this is hard coded onto phone and currently can only be removed by imei check or your network provider, providing that they carry this phone.

ROM upgrade = sim unlock ?

I searched all the forum but I didn't find any clear answer to that question :
my Kaiser is sim locked by a french provider. If I replace my original provider ROM by the one from HTC (by upgrading the ROM), will this sim unlock my device ?
Thanks a lot !
No.. the sim lock is another thing.. a couple user from orange have this problem (sim lock if reflash the rom) because (i think) at this rom (from orange) they do something with unlock code, so, if you change your rom, you lost this code.. but just the orange phones..
But if you reflash your devide with another rom (original htc or other), you until have your fone locked..
OK, thanks a lot for your answer.

qtek 8310 sim-unlock

Hi everyone,
I got a Qtek 8310 but it is sim-locked. I did SuperCID, instaled WM6. I can use other sim card for few minutes, but later on connection to network disappears. Anyone knows how to disable sim-lock completely? I am writting from Lithuania. Phone is locked to Bite network.
Thanks.

For unlocking your phone, search the forums more carefully. Easiest option is to install vjgrace's new WM6 ROM.
If you need Russian localisation files, check the WM6 Localisations thread to make sure you can get what you need before you start.
There is also a pretty slimmed down and stable WM5 ROM out there, I believe in Russian.
Any ROM you update to from here will unlock your phone. Just search and you will find.
I do have vjgrace's WM6 ROM instaled but it doesn't help and I tried everything that is possible to try on my phone when searching this forum
I just noticed that when I do *#06# to get IMEI on my phone, it shows IMEI with two 0 at the end. IMEI number under battery is without 00. Could flashing my ROM changed the IMEI number?

no
There does appear to be a new IMEI changing app up in the dev's forum though. If you need it.
If you've installed the ROM and it's still locked, maybe you need to update your radio? But if it works for even a few minutes, it probably isn't SIM locked. Otherwise it should give you "sim error" or some-such.

Help with SIM-lock (got code, can't enter...)

Hey everybody, I posted the same question in the WWE_04 thread, but no answer until now... Hope it's okay to start my own topic on this here!
So I installed the awesome cotulla WWE_04 rom on my magician (orange SPV M500) and am so happy with my good-as-new pda, but I am having one MAJOR problem...
Dumb enough, I didn't SIM-unlock the device before flashing to the cotulla rom. I got the unlock codes from Orange and am all set to go, but the thing is I don't get the option of unlocking! When I insert a t-mobile card, it just does nothing but appears to be searching for network in the status bar. No message saying: "enter unlock code", nothing. After a while it just says something's wrong with the SIM card. Tried a couple of other cards as well, no help.
So, I also tried the SIM-unlock program from the XDA-wiki, but that one just says it doesn't recognize my device and that it's no Magician.
I also tried to go back to the original rom, but when I try to flash the rom with the original one it ALSO says that it cannot recognize the device, that it's no Magician.
Soooo... anyone knows what to do next? Can I still save my device? Anyone have any ideas how to either SIM-unlock it (as I said, I have the code, It just doesn't prompt me for it. Is there any other place to enter it somewhere?) or get back to the original rom first and then unlock it in the traditional way?
Main problem is that Orange no longer exists in the Netherlands (they merged with T-mobile) so I cannot even give/sell it to someone with an Orange SIM if I wanted to...
Please help!
i think you should take it to the place where you bought it, or to a service. probably they can enter the codes, or they can unlock your phone
Hope it'll help you
regards: Reeedim
