hi folks...think I posted in the wrong section...so here goes...
Hi folks... im a bit of a noob when it comes to phones...basically my Three contract finished today and I inserted my new GiffGaff sim...only to get the Sim Network Unlock Pin....I searched around on here and found the way to get the code using the terminal emulator and the imie code.
I put the 8 digit code in...and got the message Network Unlock Successful .... but I still have no network signal....I rebooted the phone and I kept getting Sim network unlock pin - screen. put the code in....successful...etc.
My next option was moving from cyanogenmod 10.1 to the latest CyanogenMod 11 - Android 4.4.2 - KitKat .... installed fine...but on boot up I still get the unlock pin screen....enter code...unlock successful....no signal ...and back to square one.
does anybody have a way to unlock this?
pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee
giving up
well the code aint gonna work....so looking at other options...
ive tried the PG58DIAG.nbh route... but all i get is security fail / reboot my phone is s-on does it need to be s-off for that method?
think its easier to just get another 3 sim and stick with them

My problem is that i got the unlock code from this phone from t-mob, however this particular phone that i got someone was messing around with it and was able to by pass the unlock code notification which i really need right now to put the code... couple of things that i need help with....
1. How do i manually enter the code if the notification is bypass if there is no way then
2. Is there a way to get the firmware or OS installed again so whatever modification that was done will be taken out and hopefully the Unlock Sim notification will show up again.
3. Is there any flashing tools for this and well connecting to the second question i guess firmware or rom....
Advance thanks to all
------------
EDIT:
I've done Master or Factory Reset still doesn't show up....
What i got is "SIM?" then "?"
I've also tried to the the method for att where you do some sim pin things, the thing there is that the sim pin isn't bein recognize for some reason eventhough i know it.... all attemp fails...
NOT USING ATT SIM ANYWAYS just thought that method might work
bump.......
Can't believe nobody knows in this great site...
Man i thought someone knew... and they said coming here i was a noob... guess not only me...
I have a Bell Mobility HTC One S (S4 version) with bootloader unlock:
Rom: Leedroid
HBoot: 1.08.0000
Radio: 0.16.31501S.06_3
I have tried the sim unlock tried thread and also ordered unlock online and gotten the same code... Everytime I enter the code i get "incorrect password" ...
I am going spare because this is a gift and I cannot seem to unlock at all... any way to unlock this phone? whats causing this to happen
I read that others have this problem too...
Need to be on stock Rom I think
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
i unlocked mine when i was on the 3uk rom but r u putting in another sim card first so then it asks you to input the unlock code?
hey,
what is it good for?
well i found the code when i was on stock rom... so dont think that has anything to do with it... and yes I am putting in another network sim card, when i enter the code it says "incorrect password" ... and this is sim unlock for use of phone on another network...
Don't u have like 10 attempts before locking u out phone ?

I had this problem and solved it. I discovered that the only way you can unlock your phone is that you must be on stock rom, otherwise it will not work. Get the RUU for Bell Mobility, unlock your phone, then you can put back on LeeDroid. I made a thread about this a few months ago and it has helped other people.
so i finally put the phone ack to the bell stock ruu..... but as before no luck :S... the password just keeps saying incorrect
I tried the free unlock while doing the SuperCID and that didn't work. I gave up trying and I got a code from T-Mobile. Problem is when I try to punch in the unlock code, while using CM 10.1, it manages to unlock, but it doesn't find the signal and when I restart the phone it goes back to the SIM unlock code screen. Did I unintentionally mess up the phone when I did the free unlock? Help, please!
So, no help? :/ I mean I was thinking of putting the phone back on stock sense, but I'm not sure.
Hi all, I think I looked everywhere for similar issue, including xda, but no luck. I got my "new" Sensation yesterday and, obviously, I wanted to have a custom rom as I do on my Desire. So I unlocked the bootloader and flashed both recovery and new rom (yes, the phone is still S-ON because I just couldn't get it to S-OFF, no matter what method I tried there was always an issue and I couldn't complete the procedure. if it's important I can explain in details what I tried/not tried). Right now it sits on CM-10.2 | AOSP 4.3 Jellybean [KANG] with 4EXT recovery. Everythin is fine however the phone is locked to O2 and I'm with T-Mobile. I tried to get the phone to S-OFF in order to remove the simlock myself but as I mentioned, no luck. So I got pissed off and I bought the unlock pin code. I've inserted my T-Mobile card, phone asked for the pin, I've entered it and boom, phone is unlocked. Great, I think to myself... well not really. One, the phone just won't get the signal (and I tried putting it to GSM mode only) and two, every time I reboot it the message to enter network pin come up . So I enter the code again and that's the end of the loop. Tried hard reset after entering the pin code but after a reboot it would still ask for the unlock pin and then won't pick up any signal. I've tried giffgaff sim card and that works straight away (as it works under O2) so it's not the phone issue (well, not the sim card port anyway).
Any ideas/solution/questions a-ny-thing would be greatly appreciated as I'm about to rage quit and give up on it .

Hi,
Could it just be the t-mob sim card?
Is there any chance to get a new one from them?

Thought that but the card works fine in my Desire. Never had any problems with it. What gets me is that constant message asking for the network pin after rebooting the phone. Surely once the code is entered the phone is unlocked ...
If I can't find any solution by monday I'll visit their shop and ask for a new sim or I'll just move my number to giffgaff >_>
Obviously if anyone has any solutions or ideas feel free to share them and I will be sure to try them. I'd really appreciate it!!
Sorry for double post
