What networks or rom's are involved here? More detail please....
Richard

maybe it's SIMLOCK,try to unlock it :wink:

networks
ok the network what works fine are vodafone on contract and all other sim cards on all other networks keeps coming up with invalid or missing sim even if put a pay as you go vodafone sim card in. tried to unlock the phone using xdadev_all_unlock-v1.6_138 it says the phone is unlocked but still the same it has been upgraded to the lastest t-mobile NL_11300_131_11200 roms so please help

Suggestion
I suggest that you try locking it if it says it's unlock, before you re-unlock it and check it out that way!

take out ur battery, try pull all the sim pin one by one as they maybe not touching firmly.

Hi!
Anybody knows how to solve this problem? I'he got the same one.
Sim contacts are ok. It's software problem for sure.
Owner told me had tried to unlock it with LokwizMsl.bat in stead of xdadev_all_unlock-v1.6.
Regards,

Network is locked. Please input unlock code.

Hi there.
Ive flashed my Orange E650 with the Gonzo WM6.1 rom and its been 1000% successful from what I can tell.
However when I put my Vodafone SIM in it tells me
Network is locked. Please input unlock code.

Is there anyway to get around this without paying one of the websites to give you an unlock code? I have googled and searched these forums pretty extensively to no success.

try asking vodafone customer service and ask what is it. If you put ur sim in another phone it is the same?

Why would I ask Vodafone? :/

Ask Orange

its a brand new phone, wont they just tell me to piss off?

If your phone was SIM locked to orange before you flashed it, It will still be SIM locked after you flashed it.
Updating the OS does not remove the SIM lock.

Why would I want to do that? The Orange SIM will work fine in it, but I want to use my Vodafone SIM.

The phone is locked by Orange so your Vodafone sim wont work in it, untill you simunlock the phone, to do so you will have to pay ( there is no free utility for VOX at the moment )
To SimUnlock VOX see this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355790

That is not true..
SPV-Services can do the trick for you..
You can find SPV-Services here.. :
http://www.spv-developers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=236
Try it out.. When i got my vox it was locked too AND application locked.. So i flashed a rom that was application unlocket and ran the SPV Services program to get rid of my sim lock.. You just have to be quick as the phone will ask you if you trust the provider of the software you are about to install, answer yes, but you won't have a lot of time, ofcouse you can just try it again.

Everything else posted on the subject says SPV-Services doesn't work with the Vox/wm6. What rom did you use?

Orange UK can provide the unlockcode. Just call their customer service, I think they charge 20 pounds which is reasonable.

Sorry, but the code is different for different devices.

[Q] No sim card - no service after unlocking

Hi all, I think I looked everywhere for similar issue, including xda, but no luck. I got my "new" Sensation yesterday and, obviously, I wanted to have a custom rom as I do on my Desire. So I unlocked the bootloader and flashed both recovery and new rom (yes, the phone is still S-ON because I just couldn't get it to S-OFF, no matter what method I tried there was always an issue and I couldn't complete the procedure. if it's important I can explain in details what I tried/not tried). Right now it sits on CM-10.2 | AOSP 4.3 Jellybean [KANG] with 4EXT recovery. Everythin is fine however the phone is locked to O2 and I'm with T-Mobile. I tried to get the phone to S-OFF in order to remove the simlock myself but as I mentioned, no luck. So I got pissed off and I bought the unlock pin code. I've inserted my T-Mobile card, phone asked for the pin, I've entered it and boom, phone is unlocked. Great, I think to myself... well not really. One, the phone just won't get the signal (and I tried putting it to GSM mode only) and two, every time I reboot it the message to enter network pin come up . So I enter the code again and that's the end of the loop. Tried hard reset after entering the pin code but after a reboot it would still ask for the unlock pin and then won't pick up any signal. I've tried giffgaff sim card and that works straight away (as it works under O2) so it's not the phone issue (well, not the sim card port anyway).
Any ideas/solution/questions a-ny-thing would be greatly appreciated as I'm about to rage quit and give up on it .

Hi,
Could it just be the t-mob sim card?
Is there any chance to get a new one from them?

Thought that but the card works fine in my Desire. Never had any problems with it. What gets me is that constant message asking for the network pin after rebooting the phone. Surely once the code is entered the phone is unlocked ...
If I can't find any solution by monday I'll visit their shop and ask for a new sim or I'll just move my number to giffgaff >_>

Obviously if anyone has any solutions or ideas feel free to share them and I will be sure to try them. I'd really appreciate it!!
Sorry for double post

There's about 80% chance it can be unlocked. Depends from carrier to carrier. This is the safest way to do it: CLICK HERE!
As you can see in there you NEED to be rooted to get the needed file (bml5.img). But, you don't need to use the method of pulling it via ADB. You can always use some type of file explorer with root capabilities to browse to the driectory of bml5.img. Which is /dev/block/
Good luck. Please note that this doesn't have any risk. Unless you do something stupid like delete the file. Just copy it to your SD Card and follow the instructions carefully =)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MAN I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
i already found this tread you posted up there but i didnt make it to unlock it...now i tried it again and i MADE IT
AAAAAAAAAAAA thanks man !!!!!

(SOLVED) Sim not detecting/Insert a valid sim card on your phone

Hello there, I am not new to xda but this is my first post. I've a question regarding my M8 Verizon bought from ebay. Its been a year now and everything was going well since one day I accidentally did s-on and locked the bootloader while using HTC ONE M8 Toolkit by Squabbi.
Then I again s-off'd my device using Sunshine method (firewater didn't worked as it was discontinued). So I paid 1600₹ to get my device s-off'd and unlocked bootloader. But since then I am unable to use any Indian sim whether airtel, idea or any other. I tried many possible solutions found on the internet as well as here on xda. Like I flashed firmware (old and new both), flashed radio firmware files old and new both but no luck. Either I restored my device to stock Verizon rom using the RUU provided by Dottat. But I couldn't find any luck and I'm still unable to use my sim card. My phone is unable to detect it. My device doesn't even pops up any notification for sim card now. Please Help. :crying:
Is there any solution for this? I'm in a need of this.
Waiting to be helped as soon as possible.

Hi,
I do not know if same pb...
Phone is working fine on Lollipop on european Gsm/LTE (sometimes going back to cdma by itself, a bit boring), and is asking for SIM pin number.
When going to marshmallow (by RUU or by OTA) the sim is deribed to be absent or invadid, and It did ask for the SIM pin number
I did not find any clue...
regards

After a lot of tries, it finally worked. And the sim is now detected. Thanks to Me.

I disassembled my M8, then replaced the sim reader inside the phone, then removed and reinserted the flex on the board. Then turned on the phone, and edited the system file located inside root/system/customize/ACC/default.xml to change the value of sku_id and region located at last in the file default.xml

You can search on google for SKU LIST XDA. It will show you the list for all regions.
