Hi everybody,
I have already flashed a new ROM (ICS 4.0.4) and I have superuser permissions (root) but,
Is it possible to use my smartphone with some other company SIM card? My mobile phone is an Lt15i (Xperia Arc) and i bought it in Spain (with vodafone) ... now i am in germany and i want to use my new FONIC SIM...
What can I do?
Thanks in advance.
Fernando.

Thank you.
Please help me. I'm a bit lost.

If it's an unlocked GSM phone, it will work with any GSM carrier. I don't know if your phone is carrier locked or not, though. Also, custom roms don't control which carrier you can use.

You don't need root or ANYTHING to unlock your phone.
1) get SIM that is not the network the phone was originally on
2) buy unlock code from local dealer or trusted ebay seller. You have to give them your IMEI I believe
3) put that SIM in and when prompted, enter unlock code. Phone is now unlocked for any SIM card for eternity

Hey guys,
Should I buying the dual sim version Moto G?
Because there is'nt / not yet any single sim version Moto G here,
I'm considering this:
1) I heard that CM doesn't/not yet support the dual sim smartphone, is that true?
2) Can I use the single sim custom rom on the dual sim version? (It's okay for me even if the custom rom works with only 1 sim card)
3) If I can't install the single sim version custom rom on the dual sim version right now, is there any possibilities that the single sim custom rom will work on the dual sim version someday?
Because I think it's meaningless if I use an android phone, but I can't change anything on it
Any help will be much appreciated,
Thanks

you should buy the dual sim version without worries coz:
1) CM supports the dual sim version fully!
2) most of the single sim custom roms run on the dual sim version. you just have to flash the US stock firmware.
3) you can root it and get xposed to get most of the features custom roms provide and also remove the unwanted apps with root uninstaller if you decide to stay with stock rom.(there is not much bloatware anyway, pretty much stock kitkat)
also we are not talking about any android phone here, its the only phone under $200 with kitkat..
edit: i just realised that this is a very old thread! so u might have already made a decision and cm was not supported at that time...

R u sure most of ROMs work? Cos someone reply that single sim ROMs won't work on dual.
Even if one sim work It will be OK for me.

The roms that do not work use the US or european or brazilian radio.. so if u wanna install those roms u will have to install the respective country's rom and radio...

I unlocked bootloader, installed stockrom, then kitkat and after that Lollipop. After that I installed an US ROM and then I tried a Brazilian ROM. Both of 'em wont recognize the SIM no more. When I do have a SIM I get a no SIM/no signal. And when the SIM is removed I get only a no SIM notification.
This is driving me crazy =S
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry I cant give out more information cause it was my brother who actually worked on the phone. Im a noob in all this and he doesnt speak english! lol, so if you have any additional questions ask me and I can relay it to him and translate it back. Thanks
hi guys, i'm really confused after reading a lot about sim unlock issue and i'm afraid if i get the android p beta i wont be able to use my sim card anymore because i'm second hand user and my pixel2 xl was sim unlocked before. so my quastion is: will i have to sim unlock my phone again after that upgrade ? will i be able to use any sim card without sim unlocking it again ? please waiting for your answers.
thanks a lot.
