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

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?

Is it the same problem ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVPwLtLuQ7Y&feature=plcp

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.

Is there anyway to bypass it if you do have a blacklisted phone?

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.

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.

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 Cell Connection or Data!!!

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!

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

Had they succeeded in buying T-Mo they would be. I'm pretty sure Verizon is still king of the subscriber count for now, though.

[Q] why does my Sensation hate Tmobile?

Hi folks, I'm visiting the USA from Canada and my Tmobile branded Sensation will not connect to Tmobile roaming from my Wind Canada SIM, nor will my Simple Mobile SIM get a connection.
Both notice that I have a voice mail and the Canadian one notices my roaming, but no signal and no network search works.
I'm running the August 8th CM9 nightly with the latest tamcore kernel and 3.33 firmware.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. Just move if needed.

Yup all T-Mobile phones will work with their prepaid, just throw a sim in their that's pre-paid and it'll work.

That's what I use now. Works like a charm. The only thing won't have is visual voicemail, since the prepaid plans don't support unconditional call forwarding.
