Hi guys!
I downloaded the ukraine stock firmware(5.1.1) and flashed it onto my phone. But I have 2 problems:
1. The shutdown isn't working or is terribly slow. When I select power off it just shows the spinning wheel and it says shutting down.
2.The phone doesn't read my sim card. I insert it and it restarts but it doesn't detect the pin and networks. It's like the sim isn't there.
Thank you for your replies!

Can i reset the system? Is there anything I can do? Can I run the recovery? Does a file exist that completely resets my phone?
Any responses are very appretiated.

The simlock data is stored into the Trim Area partition and that partition cannot be modified. Once it's locked, it's locked forever :/

Bought a locked Motorola Atrix 2 on ebay. Unlocked the phone and got the unlock sucessful screen. No when i boot the phone, it directly goes into the emergency dialer screen. I can`t even go into the android setup screen. Is there a hard reset option for the Atrix 2?
You mean sim unlock?????
Hold both ends of volume rocker and power to get your menu with recovery as an option.
Yes, it`s SIM unlocked. Did the hard reset on the phone. Still it goes directly into the emergency dialer screen. I can`t even go into the home screen. Has the seller sent me a IMEI blocked phone?
when u saw the green android screen, press vol up/down together then u should be able to see the recovery option.

I am trying to use it in India. My service provider is called Airtel. It`s a GSM network.
Even without the sim card, It goes into the dialer screen.

With your airtel sim in it should prompt you for the subsidy code or unlock code. If it isnt working you may not have the correct code.

It did not prompt me. I had to type #073887* to get the unlocking screen. I did enter a code bought off ebay. It did say unlock sucessful. But, instead of rebooting it seems to be stuck in the dialer screen.
what about get into recovery mode and do a factory reset?

Tried with and without the SIM card. It does go into the Android home screen for a flash and then is stuck on the Emergency dialer screen.
Hmmm that's interesting. I recently moved over to an Atrix 2. My old Atrix 4g was unlocked as well and I went back to it yesterday and it's behaving exactly the way your Atrix 2 is behaving. On the Emergency Screen with or without a SIM card.

Unlock code
I tried to get the NCK code from AT&T today and they also told me it can't be unlocked until after June of next year. Where did you get your code?

Hi everyone.
I don't know if its even possible but need to create the SIM CARRIER LOCK again.
When i unlock the bootloader i "erase" the sim carrier lock (guess happen to everyone) and that is awesome but know i need my phone to be carrier lock again.
Don't need that to be forever, i like it unlocked . If that is a way to fake it it's ok but need to be hidden and need to persist after reboot.
I know it's strange but i really need it... I already flash my nandroid backup from the stock rom, flash a stock recovery and lock the bootloader, still unlocked!
Anyone knows how to do it?
Thanks!
(And sorry for my bad English)

By Sim carrier lock, do you want to relock your boot loader or do you want to restrict your phone to using the same Sim as it came with?

Well there is a way but idk if its works use J-Tag or Riff-Box it will make your phone fully as it was came in the box. My friend used it on his HTC Wildfire S and he made the phone back to factory defaults i mean the bootloader, the software it was fully restored and the Sim Branding was also restoted!

I restored with the US 4.4.2 on my Moto G. Its the US GSM Unlocked version. I have my SIM card in and everything and it still cont connect to AT&T network. I have tried other SIM cards and still not working.
Maybe it's locked for this provider.Or still locked ?
Nevermind I got it. Simple noob mistake. Restored with the wrong files.
Thanks anyways

Ok.You're welcome.
My IMEI became null due to flashing by LG Flash tool. So i repaired imei using QPST and RF_NV_Manager, but then my phone is carrier locked now. When i enter into network lock through code 2945#*850#, it displays "This phone is permanently locked and cannot be unlocked". So i either cannot unlock it through an unlock code. Is there any other way?
I have the same issue as i think entered codes multiple time. PHONE PERMANENTLY LOCKED..
i found no solution yet.. I think there is no easy method.
This is a great phone & I want to use it longer.
Any solutions anyone please?

I tried the installation, but didn't fix my problem. Nothing seem to change, i didn't even loose any data.
So i decided to retry, but this time i added the userdate file from the downloaded fireware, which made me loose all my data and didn't fix the problem.

You need to purchase unlock code
But my TMobile is not asking for unlock code

Some phones don't ask for it. The unlocking company usually gives you a code to dial in dialer to submit the code.
Just wandering, is it possible for me to move from SM-A716U to SM-A716U1 (Factory Unlocked)?
