Hi, I have bought an unlocked Samsung Omnia 2 i920 online, I was told I can insert my fido sim card, however I don't see any sim card slot. I have looked everywhere. I was wondering if you guys can tell me if there is a sim card slot somewhere hidden or somewhere i did not see, please take a picture if you have one. If not then how do I choose a network to go with other then the current Verizon network if its unlocked? Please let me know. Thanks.

look image file that I attach below
I saw your image, though mines doesn't look like that (is that when you took the battery out from the back?) mines the i920, I think your's the i8000. Anyways the tech support called me, since i sent the person a message about the sim slot, and he told me there isn't a sim slot in my phone however i can exchange it for another one that has one (i made a thread about it). Thanks for helping though.
RUIM Phone-without SIM

Hello, I brought a HTC HD7S unlocked version from Amazon. When I first got the phone, I put a AT&T prepaid sim card into the phone, it works well. However, because I need to modify the Live ID, I reset the phone to the factory setting. And then, bad things happened. When I put a AT&T prepaid sim card, it said, the SIM card is missing or invalid. When I put another AT&T prepaid sim card, it still did not work. However, when I put a AT&T family plan card into my phone, it works well. So what`s the problem and how can I use a AT&T prepaid sim instead of the family plan sim card ??
Best wishes for everyone
Help anyone who knows the answer . Thank you so much
Hello. I have a European version of the S2 LTE GT-I9210. My brother borrowed my phone and now he has broken the three gold holder on the sim tray so i need to replace it. http://imgur.com/KsEdI
I have searched the internet but I cant find any dealer that can send to Sweden. Does anyone know where I can buy it? (who send to Sweden)
As you can see on the picture its saying SGH-I727 on the card of the sim tray so i guess i dont need this part specific for GT-i9210.
Help is really appreciated!
Thanks.
Ok so I am currently staying in Russia. And do recently I bought an Hox+ from eBay and it was shipped here. Now the guy never had a problem with it because it is newly bought. So it was shipped to me in the condition he sent it. Now I bought a factory unlock key and it is in my email.
So I went and cut my normal SIM card into a micro SIM card and put it in the phone but even when I restart the phone it just says No SIM Card. Not as an error I suppose.
I tried using a very old ATT SIM I had (converted to Micro SIM) but the phone didn't read it either. So I don't know what the problem is. My old phone reads my newly cut micro SIM but my phone doesn't. And I am thinking maybe because the att SIM is so many years old the phone won't see it, and maybe the phone won't see the Russian SIM card either, so my last option I suppose it to get a proper micro SIM from MTS.
What are your ideas? Also can I make the SIM unlock code show up on the screen using a secret code? You know like when people do that global phone code or *#06# code? My phone was also bootloader unlocked, relocked and os was restored too.

You're in the wrong forum my friend, this is the One XL forum.
Didn't see another thread about this in here:
http://www.v3.co.uk/v3-uk/news/2283...llions-of-mobile-phones-vulnerable-to-attacks
Apparently many SIM cards only use single-DES-56 encryption. Anyone know if there's a way to tell what any given SIM card uses?

I did read about the SIM card hack. According to the answer when asked what a user should do, the researcher said that if your SIM card is more than 3 years old, you should replace it. I went to a T-Mobile (USA) store and asked for a new SIM replacement, free of charge, because mine was over 3 yrs old.
It would still be nice to find a way to verify this, as who's to say that T-Mobile doesn't want to get rid of their old SIM card stock, and gives you an old vulnerable one?

If you have the Verizon SIM card still inside, no it will not activate if you are trying in Russia. In that case, replace the SIM card with your Russian carrier's SIM card and see how it goes.

Just bought the same phone, Motorola Droid Mini, from the US through eBay and i am planning to insert my sim card when it arrives.
Does the phone require to unlock it for international GSM use, or is it already unlocked?
Thank you.

it should be unlocked
The Droid Ultra, the Droid MAXX, and the Droid Mini are all GSM unlocked - just put a SIM card for your GSM carrier in the slot and it'll work just fine, anywhere in the world.
