Problems Unlocking Orange SPV M1000 (XDA 2 clone)?

I am trying to unlock my new Orange SPV 1000 I have used the new XDAunlock to no avail, I successfully installed the new program on the device, ran it and got the message successfull repair!! However when I tried my vodafone sim, it asked for the unlock code!! I have tried several times with the sim in and without. Does this new program not produce an unlock code?
Ideas anybody?
Rom 1.60.00 wwe
12/03/03
Radio version 1.10.00
protocol version 1337.18
Ext rom 1.60.38

Same XDA II Problem
I have the same result. Just received an Orange M100 (XDAII) in UK at my office. Downloaded updated program, ran fine without any errors. Attempted to install my US T-Mobile SIM... asks for unlock code. The Orange SIM works fine. (When in US, need to use local T-Mobile SIM.)
Update program must need another update unfortunately. (Darn Orange)

Follow-up to previous post...
Forgot device details, apologies.
ROM Image: 1.60.00 WWE
Radio Version 1.10.00
Protocol: 1337.18
ExtROM: 1.60.38

Are you sure it isnt asking for the sim code rather than the phone code? You say you used xdaunlock, you should be using xda2unlock.

Response
I stand corrected... I was using the correct (XDA2UNLOCK) version. I failed to type the correct version in my previous post.
Yes, I'm confident this is not a SIM unlock prompt. It clearly states that this is a Network Provider Unlock prompt.
Thanks.

i also buyd a spv m1000 in switzerland an want to try a unlock.. so friends please help this man... 8)

Having just tried the lastest version of xda2Unlock, I'm having the same problem.
I copy the xda2unlock program and run it with my ORANGE SIM installed. It says all is fine and tells me to switch flight mode on and off.
I do that then take out the battery and install my Vodafone SIM. The M1000 then starts up showing "MY Info". the signal meter shows an exclamation mark and when I tap the screen it asks me for my normal SIM PIN. I put this in and the next screen says "Service Provider is locked, Please input unlock code" and has a box and an ok button.
If I try any number, including my SIM unlock code, it comes up with a box saying "Invalid Unlock Code" and it says "You have tried -2147467258 times, please wait until timeout..."
ROM version - 1.60.00WWE
ROM date - 12/03/03
Radio version - 1.10.00

Model Number of m1000 - PH10A
I hope you can help me as I'd really like to get this voda SIM working in it.
Thanks in advance
---UPDATE---
P.S. - Just W4XY's post in another thread from this morning ....
W4XY said:
Actually this is not completely true. There are two versions for unlocking an XDA 2. Unfortunately named the same (xda2unlock.exe), but they can be found in two separate threads in this subforum. Read the first post carefully. The latest version is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6963
The newer version writes a lock 00000000 to the phone and then unlocks it. However, this process is still quite secure. I have had no report of a phone not working due to unlocking. All problems were in the end related to SIM cards not working (old or blocked) or the phone itself being blocked (insurance claim). One problem that still remains is that Orange phones do not seem to unlock (but the phone remains working normally). That is being worked on.

In the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6963 a new version of xda2unlock (version 2.2) has been posted that should perform better on Orange phones.

And thanks to me for posting the Orange M1000 ROM to you in the first place )))
Just joking, it works great guys, unlocked my M1000 in a few seconds.

X01HT from softbank
Hello guys,
I have same problem with the above topics, same with my HERME200 X01HT, I already have network unlocking code, but I can not enter the code, because it says.
"You have tried 35 times, please wait until time out" however, I've been waiting for 6days ago but still can not comes out. I still can not enter the code.
What would be the solution for this????
thanks for your sharings

Samsung i780 SIM CID unlock?

Hello,
Is there any software around to SIM and CID unlock this amazing phone?
thanks,
Joao Oliveira!!

Hi Joao
I'm expecting my i780 to arrive end of this week and am also looking for a SIM unlock- unfortunately it doesn't seem like there is one around - even finding a website where you pay to unlock is difficult!
However, someone on Modaco unlocked his Orange i780 using a pay website:
http://www.modaco.com/content-page/264705/I780-Locked-GPS/page/40/
Alternatively, perhaps flashing the ROM will work? Must admit that I'm not going to try this method yet as posted on the thread....
How much is your network charging for the unlock?

Hello,
Thank for you response.
Any news on unlocking this device? have you tried flashing a new rom? did it work? to be honest i am very scared of flashing a new rom on a locked device, i dont want to brick it.
My network charges me 130euros for unlocking the device. Not too much since i paid very little for it but still ...
Thanks.
Joao Oliveira.

Hi - yes in the end I paid £19 to get it sim unlocked on the day that I got the phone as at the time there was only a test pda rom I think.
Anyway, my sim worked fine once I unlocked the phone but I couldn't get the GPS to work. I think the italian splitted radio rom was available after that so I tried flashing that - it didn't help the GPS, and in the end I had to flash the pda as well (the MSHC3 rom).
Now everything is working thanks to the guys here.
EUR130 is a lot of money to pay to get your phone unlocked....

what does 'properly unlocked' mean ?

I say you might have unlocked the bootloader,bit the phone still has SIM lock.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S

hmm, so you saying if i go back to the shop and get them to unlock properly, it might let me use the o2 sim???
is there anything i can do....having only a modest knowledge of these issues?

and in reply to properly...sorry i wasnt specific - i meant that when you put an o2 sim in and turn it on...it doesnt ask for a pin or code to unlock the phone??

Well did you buy it in a O2 shop? If yes,then there appears to be a problem with you handset. If you DIDN'T buy it in a O2 shop(which means any other,T-Mobile,3,etc.) Then you're out of luck because it it probably SIM locked to that carrier.
You should bring back the handset back to the shop and ask them to remove the SIM lock.

ok, so here we go...
Went to the shop and they say the phone is unlocked. When i put an o2 sim card in, it does not require a pin when the phone switches on.
It works with tmobile sim, orange, virgin just not o2....
so it is unlocked just wont take o2.....
any ideas why?
its originally a tmobile wildfire - spoken to tmobile and they say they have completly unlocked.....

do you have any other o2 sim to test it ?
you should also go and change your sim, might be rly the SIM problem ...here changing sim costs 10 bucks, i hope its free in your case.

im afraid im a step ahead - all o2 sims dont work - i had a brand new 3g sim sent out by o2 and have tried a pay as you go sim on o2 - still wont work with any o2 sim....
any ideas?

a ok, i didnt read that one... lets try to keep this on one thread. why dont you try flashing stock rom again... i mean its worth a shot... i guess you dont use any custom roms atm ? or even try flashin any custom rom, just to try it ... if it doesn't work then, well, we will see it's a very strange problem.
did you try connecting with 2g, and not 3g...
or maybe changing setting in *#*#3646#*#* then phone information, then set preffered network type... and try changing those also ... First try this, and if it doesnt help then try what i wrote above.

ok,well - had a read of your suggestion and only a slight problem with it...i am a real beginner when it comes to this so apologies but rom flash???
Also looked at the *#*# suggestion...unsure how to do that - did try typing that into the keypad on the phone part but it didn't do anything..
apologies im not up to speed..any way to simplify for me?

oh, and also someone has suggested going into the bootloader so i took out the sim and battery, put it all back in and held down volume and power. at the bootloader menu, i selected simlock. when i pressed it the following was displayed..
fat 32 init ok
open mccmnc file fail
open cid file fail
process done, reboot?
does this help explain anything??

i guess you didnt unlock via xtc clip... you should write the code that i told u on dialer pad, it should immediately open a meny, i will make photos when i come home as a more detailed guide k ?

ok, just to save you some time if you dont need to spend it - the phone was unlocked at a local shop - no idea how they did it - although im guessing badly...
i typed that code in - when i enter the final * the code just disappears and it does nothing. I did enter the code without the last * and it said mmi running but then said incorrect mmi...

well, you should give it a go, since i dont have an idea what could possibly be wrong

ok, well have done several things.
i) master factory reset - made no difference - o2 sim still wont work

so it looks like we're stuffed here???

[Q] Xperia ARC "No Service" error on TMN Portugal

Hello guys,
I have a problem with my Xperia Arc that I cannot find the answer on the forums.
My ARC is originally from MOVISTAR Spain and, after unlocking has been working great with VODAFONE Portugal.
Now I´m changing to TMN and that´s where the problems started. I´ve keept the same number (91) and therefore I went trough a "Portability" process to TMN. Last Friday the process was completed and my VODAFONE SIM card was disconnected.
TMN delivered me a SIM card to exchange. As soon as I did it the phone recognizes the SIM card, I put the PIN number and apparently all is OK.
But, there´s no network signal, and I cant make or receive phone calls or SMS. Everytime I try to call it says "Out of service area". This SIM card works normaly on my wifes LG Optimus Black.
My phone works at 100% with VODAFONE SIM cards and doesn´t work with TMN SIM cards. Despite it´s unlocked I´ve unlocked again the bootloader via Wontanserver. No sucess!
Strange thing though... I have 3G internet signal and I can navigate the web. Cant make phone calls or send SMS!!! Please Help!!!
Thanks in advance guys for any contribute.
Gonçalo Santos

When you say you unlocked it do you mean unlocked the bootloader or you also sim unlocked?

Already did! The TMN SIM card works on another phone, not in mine!
On my phone works VODAFONE SIM cards (tried various) and the TMN SIM only works for 3G internet connection, not phone calls or SMS...

HELP
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I've read somewhere that this was fixed in another case by putting an unlock code.
Do you know if this can solve my problem? If so, where/how can I get this "unlock code"?
Thanks again.

wontanserver server removes both sim and bootloadel lock, there`s no question there. now, since you have an unlocked bootloader, why don`t you try and flash kernel again ? or try and flash the stock rom, maybe you have some MOVISTAR crap and somehow block your calls, though i doubt that ...

Thanks for your reply. I've already reinstaled the ICS latest update trough PC companion, which "cleaned" my data. And... no luck there.
Does this process equals flashing kernel or stock rom? If so, I can always flash a diferent rom or kernel, do you recomend that?
Thanks for your help m8. I'm really in a jam...

except from vodafone sim cards, is there another sim that work ? are you positive you`ve made the right steps when you unlocked you`re bootloader ? try other sim, except form vodafone or TMN, make sure you don`t have some kind of network lock.

Yes, all sim cards work great with TMN sim cards as exceptions. I've tried old and new TMN sim cards. No luck! 3G signal for internet but no service for calls or SMS.
I´ve ordered a CHECKMEND report to see if my IMEI could be blocked/blacklisted by TMN and it came out with 0 problems!
Have tried ti change baseband, kernel and ROM, unlocked via WONTAN and... nothing! Now I'm back to stock ICS and stuck with the same issue... :crying:
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Do you resolve this issue? Mine is happening excatly the same thing. Nothing seems to work @Gsantoz

If you can find a simcard that will work with the phone, then sell the phone - probably best to cut your losses
