No Cell Connection or Data!!! - HTC Sensation

Woke up this morning and had no service and data connection. I've tried all of the following none of which worked:
Rebooting phone
Tried fixing permissions and wiping cache and dalvik
Tried reseating the SIM card
Got T-Mo to swap SIM card
Wiped device and re-flashed ROM
I'm running ARHD 6.3.3 XE with Faux 005. Have also tried Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 beta1 with the same issue. I have the latest radio and firmware required for ICS and ARHD. I have been running the ROM problem free for weeks and this just happened out of nowhere. When I open my phone it immediately brings me to the Network Operators screen and I see T-Mobile and AT&T. I tap T-Mobile and then I get the error:
"Your SIM card does now allow a connection to this network."
Can someone please help me!! I'm getting desperate here! Haven't had service all day and I need my phone for work email on the go etc.! I really need this fixed ASAP!!

No suggestions huh? Been without a phone for almost a day this is terrible!!! IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!!!! But seriously please anyone, I'm desperate for help here. Thanks!

If black listed nothing you can try calling tmob but most likely your done if black listed or att till 2014 when all stolen phones banned

Go get a Simple Mobile SIM.if it's blocked on T Mous. You may want to check your IMEI number is there, I have had it happen where mine has just disappeared and a reboot fixed it. Which model Sensation did you buy? Is it T Mous branded? Simple Mobile uses T Mous towers and it's $45 unlimited everything, no hidden fees.

That would be a waste of time since it used tmobs towers, if its blacklisted on T-Mobile it won't work on simplemobile. If its blacklisted there really isn't much you can do, how long ago did you buy it?

Wanna share that link? and its doubtful, T-Mobile wouldn't unlock a blacklisted phone, because technically its not your property.
Buying off cl and eBay is sketchy now a days, a would be seller can sell off their phone, use a dif phone for 2 weeks then report the phone they sold stolen and use an insurance claim to get a new one. That would be smart except the unexpecting buyer loses service and ends up with a WiFi only device
Indecency of people these days :banghead:

I bought my phone new on eBay, I called T-Mobile to check blacklist status and I was asked if I wanted to unlock, didn't bother cause I plan on staying on tmob prepaid but Att might be a better choice, do you know if the sensation gets Att hspa+?
Edit: just saw a guide to unlocking on here so it shouldn't be a problem

No if u go to att we only get edge only witch is about 2.5g

Network Operators Scan Don't Show T-Mobile on List...

I have a question... The picture below, shows an Unlocked HTC Sensation 4G from T-Mobile on the left side, and on the right an Unlocked HTC Inspire 4G from AT&T... my question is... why is the Inspire (right) unable to show T-Mobile as an option of network operator? thank you!
Also, just in case... I can use the T-Mobile sim card on the Inspire, and the AT&T sim card on the Sensation with no issues... remember, they are both unlocked...
Sensation -> Stock ROM
Inspire -> Android Revolution HD ROM (from mike1986) with Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2
If you scan in your Inspire, do you see T-Mobile?
My Inspire shows both AT&T and T-Mobile.

so im guessing that it works like for calls and such if so then what does it matter, if you flash an AOSP rom it should have the option though, if you have a stock or improved stock rom then it will not have t-mobile in it

My stock sensation shows all networks... The inspire with custom rom does not... When I go to europe or anywhere... that means the inspire will not show all available options, and that's not good... So nobody knows why?

probably because att doesnt want you roaming on Tmobile us's network, or it might just use it as the ATT network by default if they have some sort of roaming agreement? just postulating here but in europe you should be able to see all networks
Anybody else can do a scan with HTC Inspire? Just to see results... Thanks!

Nothin but AT&T with VU 1.27 in South-Central NorCal.

What carrier can I take my sensation to?

I've been with TMO US for a long time now and want to change. I'm on a month to month plan and paid for my sensation out of pocket and don't want to have to buy another phone out of pocket again.
So, I do I have any options? Or is is the sensation TMO US only?
Thanks for your help!
If you unlock the sim you can go to AT&T, but you won't get 4G I don't think. Read up on the HTC website about the phone and the frequencies it uses, then Google the frequencies that AT&T uses. That will be your best source of info as I am at work and can't look it up and give you links.
Hope this helped.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
The only other carrier that uses AWS in the US from my knowledge is Cincinnati Bell.
Yeah...only plausible option is probably,ATT, but you'll only get Edge speeds...I'd stick with TMO.
You can use simple mobile, they buy from tmobile.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
I noticed on mine there is an option somewhere to change networks to att. It said it wasn't registered. Then I clicked back on tmo and it was fine. Don't know if it helps. You never know.
Edit
It is under wireless and networks then mobile networks then network operators.

No. Because 1. I used my upgrade already. And 2. I bought too much accessories already to let go of the phone.
I ordered mine today but I'm keeping my sensation. Will see how the two compare when I get my nexus
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
We'll. Get ics soon or later, and just for the firmware updates some wouldn't pay, plan cancellation fees, then go to an overcharging carrier, nfc chip? Ask anybody who owns a nexus s used it properly, and constantly, every dual core device now has same aspecs yet in a different way, different flavor, different. Everything

No cause it is just a little to big for me. Coming from the N1, then the Sensation, but the Galaxy Nexus screen seems to me just to big for my pocket!
I'm on tmobile us, is there any galaxy nexus that will.work with my carrier?

The unlock version can support the T-mobile bands but you'll pay about $700

[Q] Need help QUICK! Need to return to stock quickly.

I rooted my friends sensation a week ago, then he lost it and called t-mobile to cancel the data/service. He then found it later in someones front yard laying near this tree (lucky!) and now it doesn't have service. we've called t mobile and even went to the store and they can't activate it so I need to unroot it and try to activate it. I'm running android HD revolution (ICS). Can I just go into clockworkmod and flash the stock rom!? I need help quick, he needs his phone to work.
Won't they have blocked the phone via the IMEI?

It is bs, call back and they should be able to reactivate it. No need to ever tell them it's rooted. The SIM card should be reactivated. They don't have a clue about rooted devices.

Unlocked One S - No service. AT&T SIM works but T-Mobile SIM doesn't?

I have a unlocked T-Mobile HTC One S that I'm using on AT&T SIM and it works perfectly but T-Mobile SIM doesn't work (No service). It gets service for 2-5 seconds then no service. The weird thing is that this is a T-Mobile phone so isn't it suppose to work?

Nope, it doesn't ask me to enter a PIN.
Call T-mobile and ask if the phone have been "blacklisted".
What about your radio/firmware? Up to date?

I'll give them a call. I got this phone off craigslist but I didn't test it on T-Mobile because I'm on AT&T. How does it get blacklisted?

If the original owner purchased it on a contract and then stopped paying. Or, they reported it lost or stolen.

Your only real option is to use it on a network other than T-Mobile. The only person who could possibly fix it is the original owner who had it blacklisted.

I have a One S I bought new but I am wanting to switch to ATT because I cant get a signal at work on T-Mobile.
Question: Are you getting 4G on ATT with the unlocked One S ?

It will get AT&T 4G(note, not LTE). The One S supports 850/1700/1900/2100 for 4G. You must get it unlocked of course. I purchased an instant unlock code on eBay for $6.
