hi, just out of curiosity what carrier are you both using??
i get the same error i f i pop in my ATT iPhone sim
has anyone been able to resolve this problem?
This is what happens when your SIM is locked or disabled, not when your device is SIM-locked. Those are two entirely different things. You need to contact your carrier to resolve this. You may have to get a new SIM card.
do somebody know how to resolve this kind of problem? i am having this problem now.. i already changed the sim but still the error "phone not allowed MM #6" still appears

Question regarding stock froyo update w/o at&t sim

I tried to read as many threads as possible and didn't find an answer so I am opening a new thread for help.
I have just bought a captivate from ebay and got it 2 days ago. It's still at 2.1 locked with at&t. I am a t-mobile prepaid phone user, so I unlocked the phone w/ the SGS unlock app by performing sim unlock.
So now, I am trying to use the Kies mini tool to update my phone, it says device is not supported for update, what does that mean? Was the t-mobile sim card that is causing my phone to not update? or the unlock itself? Is there other way where I can update to stock 2.2?
can any ops move this thread to the captivate general forum, I open this new thread in the wrong forum by mistake and do not know how to delete it.

Bell Canada Samsung Galaxy Gio Shows no IMEI?

Hi guys,
This is my very first post and Glaxay Gio(S5660M) is my very first android phone!
I got this phone brand new from Bell. Wanted to unlock it to use on Rogers. Found out that the phone doesn't register any valid IMEI!
I press *#06# and IMEI shows up blank. The same happens when I go to setting->Phone status->IMEI. Nothing is there. The box and the lable underneath the battery show a valid IMEI number but nothing is registered INSIDE the phone.
Now, I tried a Bell SIM card and the phone works fine. But no luck with any other SIM card. How is it possible to operate a cell phone without IMEI?
Is it still possible for me to root and flash this phone to original Samsung firmware?
I have no experience in rooting or flashing but I don't mind trying the methods explained in this forum.
Please advise.
Cheers,
Seems you used the STL5 method to get the unlock code. That method is out of date and causes a large percentage of corrupt EFS. There's no known way to restore it right now; you have to take it back to your shop and act dumb.

This phone is brand new. It was never activated through Bell Canada nor was it unlocked or tampered with.
I believe the IMEI is there but Bell's firmware blockes it from being displayed before activation. Is it possible?
I called Bell and they said I should activate the phone, then their system loads the new phone number and the IMEI into the phone so I can use it.
Now, with a valid IMEI in the system, I can go ahead and unlock the phone using tested methods, right?
Please advise.
Could someone please help me out here?
This phone is prepaid by Bell Canada. The phone is not activated by Bell so there is no phone number associated with it. It is brand new.
I check the lock status of the phone and all gategories show as "OFF" but it does not work with any SIM card except Bell!
IMEI shows as two small empty boxes. No number or anything. Eveything else looks fine. All apps run well.
Now, what should I do? Can I root, flash and put the official firmware on it? Is it possible to do so? Some say the EFS is corrupted if no IMEI is showing. But how come the phone works with Bell SIM card?
Please help!

Did you try inserting "a SIM card not attached to your current provider (e.g if you have T-mob use an ATT SIM CARD) and turn on your phone?" (credit sanfranx415 post) edit: maybe try a different gsm carrier in the same country you reside.
From what I have read and understand different versions of busybox will work or are compatible for different things (maybe somebody will tell me if that is not accurate).
Here is a video that might help.
Good luck!
Try contacting t mobile and tell them your going overseas for a few months and want to take your phone with you and is there a way to unlock it so it can be used in another country.

When you insert the sim card and power up the phone, as you unlock it it should give you a network lock screen that only lets you use the phone after inputting the unlock code.

[Q] How to sim unlock Alcatel OT-6012?

Hy XDA
I'm new on this forum so sorry if I didn't post where i should this question
So my question is that can I sim unlock an Alcatel OT-6012 locked to orange? I have searched on the forum but I didn't find anything related to this phone. I have rooted the phone and I have searched in the /dev/block/ folder and in mmcblk files but I didn't got anything useful in there. Where does this phone store its sim unlock code becouse in my way of thinking I am sure the phone haves the code somewhere where I can accessit to becouse in othere way the phone unlock software couldn't access it. Am I wrong?
Thanks in advance!
