Hi fellows,
I searched for a program to reduce my time using my Windows Mobile Rhodium.
I activated my SIM Pin. If I switch to airplane mode and re-enable the phone for calling, I have to enter this SIM Pin. This is a wanted behavior. But I also use the phone lock Pin to lock my phone. So I have to enter a Pin after to unlock and use my phone.
But now my problem:
If set my Rhodium to airplane mode and lock it with my lock code, I have to enter 2 Pins the unlock and re-enable the phone. On Symbian I could choose to enter only the lock code and the SIM Pin was not necessary.
Maybe somebody can help me.
Thanks for all.
Moved as not software release.
As far as I know, there is no such feature for Windows Mobile.
[Q] T-Mobile SIM Unlock - Can't manually enter SIM Unlock Code - "Use Unlock app"
Turns out I still don't have coverage at home with T-Mobile's network. I purchased my Z3 D6616 outright (full price). However, when I insert a SIM from another carrier, I get this message* instead of the usual prompt to enter a SIM unlock PIN. I guess they only want you to use their new unlock tool, as a way to prevent 3rd party unlocks.
Am I really stuck using T-Mobile for 2 months because this phone cannot be unlocked manually with a PIN, like most phones? Is there any workaround to bring up the menu to enter the unlock code?
*This device can be remotely unlocked if eligible. Please use the Device Unlock application to unlock the device. . ."
I have the same issue. Unfortunately I was not able to find a solution yet.
I've read somewhere that the Simlockunlockapp.apk is missing from the firmware (this is the default app used by Android to display the network unlocking popup).

Yeah, I'm betting they removed the ability to do so in favor of their new "Device Unlock" app, that way people cannot unlock via a 3rd party. I'm bummed because I already paid for an unlock code, but have no way of entering it! :crying:
I believe legally they have to unlock. Try calling customer support.

I hope you are not a "current" T-Mobile user, because if you are they do it after 45 days of activation for free.
Do you find a solution? maybe if we root the phone and install another rom we can have the ability to input the network code, another thing I did was refill my t-mobile account to a total of $100 USD to make me eligible to use the "unlock app"

Is there a way to restore the network lock on my T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S6?
I would like to setup my personal phone so I can access my work emails. My work uses Mobile Iron for email. Mobile Iron requires a network locked phone to install the email app for access to my work email. Mobile Iron also prohibits rooted phones, so I suspect any unlock solution that involves permanently rooting the phone will probably cause other problems.
Thanks,
I noticed my AT&T S5 didn't work on WiFi down here in Argentina as the AP used Channel 12 which is not included in the ROM's kernel. Very annoying! I had made sure to get the AT&T phone as they use the same frequency bands for non-LTE cellular as the telephone companies here. Unfortunately the boot loader is locked so I don't think I will be able to fix this issue.
But I got to thinking about the ways the phones can be locked down to restrict use. Here is my list which is likely not exhaustive. What am I missing?
Samsung "initial region" lock which requires 5 minute call
SIM lock to carrier
WiFi channels disabled (e.g. 12-14)
Screen lock w/ fingerprint, etc.
flash memory encryption, decrypt on boot
google accounts lock (needs account to enable after factory reset)
samsung account lock (needs account to enable after factory reset)
different frequencies for cellular coverage
bootloader locked
KNOX counter?
SIM card itself can be locked with pin
SIM card can require PUK code
Couple more:
SElinux restrictions
Permission managers
Wi-Fi tethering locks (rare on Android now)
App-specific locks (ie. Pin codes for banking apps)
