Hello all,
I just received my sim unlock code from my provider because my phone has a simlock.
They said in the email that I have to put in a foreign simcard, enter the code of that simcard and then I have to see a screen where I can type the simlock code.
Unfortunately that screen doesn't show up.
My HTC Sensation XE is rooted and I have Android 4.2.2 from Albinoman887.
Is there another way to enter the code to unlock my simlock?
Thanks in advance
I may be wrong but I think this is most likely operators fault..
You could always try another ROM and see where that gets you.
After that there is always the option to go back to stock ROM.

For HTC the only way to insert the unlock code is after the phone asks for it,with another sim inside.Is a common problem not to ask for code if you have another rom installed so restoring to the stock rom should allow you to insert the unlock code

You have 5 tries to enter your code. Just enter the numbers as they are.
ok thanks now it works
Ok so i tried the unlocking method 1 for my sensation and found my 8 digit unlocking code, however when i put in any other sim card rather than the one the phone is locked to is says no sim card in phone so i have no way of inputing the unlock code.
Any ideas?
Thanks in Advance
i think it states in the unlock thread that it wont work with ALL sensations
Thanks for the reply, yes for some people method 1 just shows a date, but mine gave me the 8 digit unlock code.
The problem is the phone is locked to Meteor but when i insert any other sim then a Meteor one it says no sim card in phone, it should ask to enter the 8 digit network unlock code which it doesn't because its not recognising the sim card for some reason.
mine too, not detect the sim card..
Did you solved the problem?
regards

Did you put the code in with the meteor sim inserted?
you could always just flash another ROM and that should fix the issue, I know it's a bit drastic but if you really want to use another carrier...

Sorry for only replying now, still not resolved, how would i put the code in with the meteor sim in it?
Ive already tried changing the rom and tried the method 2 unlock but it still won't recognise any other sims apart from meteor ones.

No the phone is unrooted and running isc 4.0.3 but the question is how to enter the unlock code without the phone asking
How many different carrier sims have you tried? Some carriers use the same carrier code and as such there sim will not prompt you for the code. Like in the UK giffgaff and tesco mobile run on the o2 network. And as such do not require the sim unlock to run on an o2 locked phone. Try as many as you can find from different carriers. And if that fails, and it still doesn't give you the prompt, you can s-off the device, and then follow the sim unlock guide by viper (I believe) and do it for free

Try a different (non-AT&T/Rogers) SIM for starters...
I recall a "No SIM" method kicking around, I just have to remember it.
UPDATE: From offsite...
If your phone does not ask for the unlock code:
1. Turn on the phone with original Sim card or without Sim card
2. Enter #7465625*638*NCK/Network#
The phone is now unlocked.
If your phone does not ask for the unlock code:
1. Turn on the phone with a foreign (Unaccepted) Sim card
2. Then enter the following sequence:
#0199*Unfreeze/Defreeze#
#0111*NCK/Network#
#0121*SCK/Subprovider#
#0133*SPCK/Provider#
The phone is now unlocked.

According to the phone specs versus the Vodaphone frequencies, you may be stuck with 2G as well.
i cant dial any of those because i always get the same msg " no network available"

Yikes. Try without a SIM, and see if the message (including the lockscreen msg) is any different.
You may have a bent or broken pin in the SIM tray...
Hey guys,
I have a situation with my HTC 10. I have unlocked bootloader, and S-off via sunshine and installed Viper10. I recently purchased network unlock codes from HTCUnlockingservice.com but it wouldn't work when I restarted the phone with Verizon sim, so I had to go back to stock T-Mobile RUU. But I have the same problem, when I insert a foreign sim it doesn't promp me to enter unlock codes, instead I have a sim-lock icon in my status bar. The TMobile Device unlock App doesn't work either (it used to say incompatible with Viper10, now it says "failure in processing request. please reboot device and try again").
Can someone help me find a way around it ??
Is there a *# sequence to prompt unlock code entry ?? something like the *#06# is ed for IMEI...
Please help, going crazy over here
thanks
