I have NEVER paid for unlocking codes and I have unlocked about 10 different types of Nokia and 2 different types of Blackberry. So yeah, if you find the right user on the forum then you should get it for free.

Are you sure your phone is network locked? Sure its not a baseband problem?

maybe it is what can i do to fix that ?
Try installing v21e through kdz method and everything shoul'd be fine after that. Offcourse if the baseband is the issue.

Is the a way to unlock it when it display a pop up message "Your phone is not personalized"
My friend gave me his old Samsung T404G, and I want to use the functions on it like the music player and the camera, but there's no SIM card. It's stuck on the screen saying "Insert SIM", and I can't do anything with it. Is there any way to use the phone's functions without having to pay for a SIM replacement along with a plan?

I have to insert a SIM programmed for the phone in order to access any of the functions. Anyway, I called TracFone and had them sent a blank SIM programmed for the phone, it should be here in a few days. I'll see how that goes.

How do I activate the phone if I can't use the number pad to during the activation prompts? I'm sure there's a way,
Not supposed to use *228 to activate phones with sim cards.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda app-developers app
Like the above poster says *228 is not meant for LTE devices, only 3g devices. Did you just purchase the phone? If so, dial 1-877-807-4646 from any other phone to start the activation on your line. The LTE sim must be activated separately as well.

I just reloaded PA because of some glitches and the phone said it failed to activate. I dont have any service at the moment.
HELP! I recently switched from AT&T to T-Mobile. I brought a SIM unlock code from cellunlocker.net to use with my HOX. It wasn’t my first time dealing with them - they have a good service over there. When I put the T-Mobile SIM card into my AT&T HTC One X (Rooted, Unlocked Bootloader, S-Off & Super CID). I didn’t get the prompt asking for the unlock code. At first I thought it was the ROM (UrDroid_One_X_ATT_OTA_JB_Odex-evita-1.9) so I put the sock 2.20 back in with no change. I unrooted, then I ran a couple of RUU’s (htc_one_x_RUU_2.20.502.7_att_us & RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US_1.85.502.3) with no change. Both AT&T and HTC said that they didn’t know what was causing it. The phone works perfectly too. My question is does anyone know of a code that I could punch into the dialer to get the unlock code prompt window to open? If not is there a way to put S-ON back? Reason is I’m wondering if it could be an issue with no security on (S-ON) hence no security prompt… just a guess.

Sorry man, I'm out of ideas.
you could try inserting the sim while in bootloader..
Some phones have a setting for sim card lock in settings -> security I don't use sense so I can't verify that.
Also, you can try changing the prefered networks in settings.
Hopefully one of these helps?

Yes, I'm positive. It works with an AT&T SIM but when you put in a SIM from another carrier you don't get any bars, you just see a little x. Besides that no prompt window comes up asking for the unlock code as it is supposed to do.

Is there a thickness difference between the att sim and the other one? Was it a custom cut SIM?

No, it wouldn't be the thickness because I've used four different SIM cards (both T-Mobile and Simple Mobile) some cut and some not.
try this app and check sim state; although, I dont know if it works.

how did you unlocked your sim with s-off? I need to unlock mine manually as the prompt is not coming neither
EDIT: lol i figured out the problem. Both accounts from the sims that I was testing were deactivated for non use, and thus I couldn't get any signal. Maybe the same happened to your tmobile sim.
Good day.
So i purchased a htc one v from the virgin mobile network.
On opening the base compartment i discovered that there was no Sim card area exposed. Instead this version is enclosed with plastic.
I would assume that if i open the device with a screwdriver that there will be a Sim card area. however i'm not sure if it would be enabled.
Secondly, I'm not sure if the virgin mobile software would accept a Sim card.
So i want to know:
1. Will the slot be there and active if i open it?
2. Will it be possible to flash the phone to a different carrier?
Plz give me a detailed response with some sources. I wanna be sure of whether or not it is possible to use this as a gsm device
