Hi, I am trying to find a way to unlock my SIM-less HTC Touch to use it on the Cricket network. Cricket says they can do it for 75 bucks, but that really isnt a route I want to take. I have searched this and other forums for help or an answer but all I am coming across are answers for SIM unlocks.. Since my phone doesnt have or use a SIM card then I dont believe those options will work in my case.. Any help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks

Hi guys,
I'm new to the forum. I've tried searching for some answers but can't seem to find how to resolve the problem. I'm quite new to using PPCs so let me know if there's any information that you guys need.
So my phone works fine in Canada using Rogers... but everytime I go to US, I cannot detect a network for my phone and there's a "!" at the top. I tried searching for a network and it says "no network found" or sometimes it tries to register and then it fails in the end. In US, my phone automatically shuts off... I have no idea how this happens but everytime I go to look at my phone after leaving Canada, it's off. So when I go to turn it back on, there's no phone signal. I have no idea what to do as I'm not very familiar with PPCs.
Thanks for the help!
Which phone are you trying to use? Guessing Touch Pro?
Is international roaming or data roaming added to your account with Rogers?
Hey I have the HTC Touch Pro... yeah I've used this sim with my eten m700 before and it works fine. It just always seem to be searching for a network then it can't find any.
Thanks!!!
are you a prepaid customer? if so, Rogers doesnt allow roaming outside of canada.
Hey there... Just figured I'd pipe in here...
I am still using a TyTN (shopping for a Touch Pro today), and although I was able to always use my phone in the states, since my last firmware upgrade (WM6.1, new radio stack)....
....I can't get any service when I cross the border.
SOMETIMES I'll get 10 minutes of service over the course of an entire day. Very strange.
It is obviously firmware-related... Good luck with your phone...!
Thanks for all the help guys...
Nope I'm not a prepaid customer... should I be upgrading something on my phone to see if it works? Sorry... really don't know much about PPCs here!
just out of curiousty, have you called Rogers to ask for an updated OTA to be pushed to your SIM?
I've contacted Rogers and they said it has nothing to do with them... it's my phone! Should I contact them for the OTA? I'm sorry to be so noobie but... what does OTA do?
Thanks again!
Anyone help please!!!
I'm new here and I'm hoping someone will be able to shed some light to my question. I have sidekick Lx at the moment, and I've been looking for a way to use my sidekick data plan to work on my unlocked Htc P4351? I've searched for a lotta hours and i can't seem to get any answers. If there are anyone here who could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate that. I didn't want to have to change my sidekick data plan because I'm only paying $19.99/mo.
how do you expect to use a phone's dataplan with another phone? you wanna switch the sim cards? if so, and if the P4351 is unlocked, it shouldn't be a problem to just switch sim cards and have it work.
Yes, i want to switch the sim card from the sidekick and put it on the p4351 and be able to go on the net. I have tried to mess around with the settings, i found on the tmobile website but nothing seems to work, unless i'm doing something wrong.
sorry fellas im not at this and ive been reading forums and havent found an answer to my problem i have an htc touch pro 2 with at&t and have a sim card now ive gotten android to boot on my phone but when i put my sim card in there is no network and when i try to use wifi it just says obtaining ip address i used to have an iphone and was good at jailbreaking it but this is a little more complicated i think so if you could help me out i would appreciate it. thanks

Maybe the phone is carrier locked, thats why you get no network?
You don't need a sim card to use wifi, there probably something wrong with your wifi/network setup (i.e. static ip/automatic).
how do you get the carrier unlocked i know the phone itself is unlocked
The information you provide is to little.
Does it ask you for the carrier pin code?
Is flight mode turned on?
no it doesnt ask for a pin it just has an X over the signal bars
Does the sim work with other phones?
Did you change something or is the phone all stock?
I'm out of ideas for now.
yes my wife has an iphone and it works in hers maybe im not running the correct version of android on my phone im not sure what version i need to use i just downloaded on and it loaded up and no i never tried to turn airplane mode off ill try that and see if it works thanks man
i just looked airplane mode is turned off and another thing with the wifi it works when my phone is booted in winmo
if it helps i have version 2.2.1 android
Hello guys, i've searched the forums but could not find a definite answer, i would like to know if there's anyone here who can help me flash my wife's phone to Metro PCS, i know there's a lot of places where they can do it but they charge way too much, i was wondering if anyone here has come up with a way to do this easier and cheaper, i know i can go to my local store and pay them to do it but i wouldn't be able to use text or data services, i know there's a way to flash the sprint phones to work fully on the Metro Pcs network, if anyone has any knowledge or can point me in the right direction i will really appreciate it.
Thanks Guys,
Cheers,
Walter
Hi,
I rooted my inspire which is locked to ATT using the ACE Hack kit.
Now, if I insert a T-mobile Sim in it, it does not detect any signal, nor it does ask for a Unlock code. I tried to flash the STOCK ROM using Hack Ace, and that did not help.
I am in a kind of a stuck state and not sure of how to proceed with the unlock. Can any one help me out of this situation?
I'm going to go ahead and be nice and answer this. But this has been asked a lot and researching would get you a faster answer then waiting on someone to respond. If you did the hack kit correctly and gained soff then you are sim unlocked. It will not ask you for an unlock code.
Ad to no signal the sum cover needs to be put back on. And as a preemptive answer to two questions commonly asked after this is.
1) no 3g will not work on T-Mobile, nothing you can do. Unless you happen to live in SF where T-Mobile is testing out its 1900mhz 3g
2) still doesn't work- just because your sum unlocked doesn't guarantee any sum will work. I've had where my sister tmo doesn't work on my phone but my brothers sim will. So try another one

Thanks for the response. It is the issue with Sim Cover. it is working fine after i put the cover back on.
