I heard the MDA Pro is locked and only can use T-mobile sim card, is it ture?
yes, i'm too
Netlock: True
Hi,
the MDA Pro from T-Mobile is not SIMlocked but Netlocked. If you buy the MDA Pro without a card contract you will get the unlock code for free. If you bought it with a contract and got the device for less than 749€ , then you have to pay for the unlockcode (99€).
Cheers
This ONLY is valid for German devices, purchased by German residents in German shops. T-Mobile in the Netherlands stated that they will NOT offer the same service, and T-Mobile Germany stated they will NOT offer this services to foreign machines.

...
seems that ....
T-Mobile MDA Pro is indeed SIM locked (at least these models now on sale) but under phone number 01805330160 one can get unlock code after providing IMEI number of this phone - if the phone was purchased without subscription
..
I'm expecting an MDA Pro bought without contract and hope that this is true.
Ups...
Sorry, I didn't know that. I thought that the TM procedures regarding this are the same in every country.
Cheers

I can confirm the whole thing.
Bought the MDA Pro from Germany and I have received in 4 hours the simlock code for free.
Now to the english ROM !!!!
Copy that!
Called T-Mobile Customer Service a few minutes ago and they told me that you will get the unlocking code for free if you paid the full price without a bundled contract.
With a 24 month contract the unlocking code will cost 99,50 EUR.
And if you wait 24 month you'll get the code for free also
I have sent my invoice to them and now I wait for my code

Need help to unlock the MDA Pro
I have purchased a simlocked MDA Pro from Germany but the guy i bought it from does not have the receipt. As i live in Greece T-Mobile doesnt give me the code. Is there anyone that can help me get the code from T-Mobile Germany with my IMEI No.
Thanks
Alexis
Fungerar det med Jasjars officiella ROM eller blir det några problem.

Alguien que haya comprado el Galaxy Nexus me podria decir el precio en Telcel y si es mejor mandarlo a traer por el internet ya que esta como a 400$ dolares?
Es que en unos mese me ire a vivir haya y en este momento tengo el Nexus pero de Verizon en Estados Unidos y se que no se puede convertir en con Telcel o Movistar.
Gracias
Hello, because of the rules of XDA you should post in english, I'm a mexican user founder of a mexican android users community (mexdroid) you can ask there in spanish if you want.
The price of the Galaxy Nexus here with telcel is about $10,300.00 mexican pesos off contract, that is about $800 USD, you can get it cheaper in some service plan. I would recommend you to buy some unlocked GSM galaxy nexus at the US and activate it here in some plan or prepaid. I have seen some offers in the US for about 500USD or less for the galaxy nexus, that's much better that buy it here but you also need to consider guarantee in case of problems.
I'm not really sure about the verizon Gnex is unable to work in mexico, maybe with Iusacell, I will take a look at it.
Regards and Bienvenido!
UPDATE: a couple of members of mexdroid reported that it could actually work with Iusacell, you can try to contact them via twitter and ask. @IUSACELL
Today I learned the hard way of Sprint Early Termination Fees!!!. this was verified by several customer service representative. only at 2 days before my trial period I had problems with my bill and found out that ETF(Early Termination Fees) are NOT PRORATED the way we used to know. just after 8 months is when you start your prorated cycle at $340.00, then from the 9th to the 19th months goes $20.00 per month, then form the 20th to the 23th month go to $100.00, and the Last month to $0.00. I did not knew that. on AT&T after the first month it will go by $10.00 a month until goes to $0. WHAT A RIPOFF!!!!!!!!!!!. I fought with 5 diferent representatives at the store and on the phone until finaly got a complete credit of my ETF!!!. WHAT A FIGHT!!!. I spended 7 years as a Tmobile customer before because this same problem with Sprint. almost leave for AT&T!. BUYERS BEWARE!!!!!.
Has anyone had this bad experience???

nah. I read my contact before I signed it, so I knew what the etf situation was.

You sign a contract, and you've got 14 days to evaluate the phone, the service, and READ THE CONTRACT. They don't charge the ETF until you've gone beyond that 14 days, right?
You expect them to live up to their end of the contract, why not just be thankful that they were convinced to give you a break instead of being pissed that they tried to enforce a contract you signed.

as I understand it PRORATED means that as the months go by your balance will go down with it. that's not the case with Sprint. you have to wait 7 month to go down. that to me is not PRORATED!!!. SCAM!!!

Te recomiendo entonce AT&T. yo use att por 15 dias como prueba y creo que es el mejor servicio que he probado hasta ahora. 4G LTE lo hay por donde vayas con att. lo unico es que son caros y la data no es ilimitada. tendras que escojer un plan de 3 o 5 GB.

Hello friends from xda.
I bought my HTC on Amazon:
Amazon.com: HTC One X S720e Cellphone - No Warranty - White
When I got it I toke it to my phone company (Claro Honduras, 1900 band) agency to cut my regular shape SIM into a Micro Sim shape, but it didnt works, (I noticed the phone still can see the SIM Toolkit options) but no network at all. Then I toke it to the competency company (Tigo Honduras, 900 band) and they cut a regular shape Sim too and it worked without problem. But I need to use my Claro company as a must. I went to three different agencys and Claro people couldnt help me. I have tried like 5 differente Claro Sims and any of them worked, I tried those Sims at other phones and they worked, the problem is only with my HTC One X.
Writed HTC and they asked me to do a factory reset, wich didnt solved the problem, then they asked me to send the phone to Bogota for check. The Amazon seller also says the phone have no problem.
Im so frustrated since i have this amazing phone and cant really use it and I cant find any way to solve it. Plz guys halp! =(
Thanks a lot in advance!

Some SIM cards have larger chips and are not suitable to be cut to Micro-SIM (older ones usually). When those larger chips are cut they break the connectors and the card will not work. Maybe that's what happened with your SIM card.
Only recent SIM cards that have smaller chips are suitable to be cut. Can you post a photo of your SIM cut so we can see if the chip has been cut as well?
It can also be the sim card tray that is faulty which mine was sent back to HTC who replaced it under warranty.
Well the SIM is not damaged as far as I know, because I have tried them in other phones and works normally, then try it on my HOX and "No Service"
Im attaching an image with the Claro (light blue with red, not working one) Sim and the Tigo (dark blue, working one) Sim. Both of them were cut from normal Sims and both of them works at other phones. I also tried another Claro Sim with a bigger golden contact shape and didnt worked neither. Also tried a not cutted Micro Sim (the ones that comes already with that shape) from an Iphone on Claro and didnt worked neither.
About the Sim Card Tray that sounds like something, but just gotta add that the Tigo Sim works perfectly with the Sim Card Tray as it is now. Also with the Claro Sim on I can see the features from the Claro company on the Sim Toolkit application.
Any more ideas guys? Plz :S
Thanks a lot.
Yo creo que tu problema no es el chip, es con el operador, en este caso Claro. Si aparece «no service» es porque efectivamente está leyendo el chip pero el operador no deja que el teléfono se registre, cuando no puede leer el chip dice simplemente «no SIM». Debes ir directamente al servicio técnico de Claro, probablemente tengas que registrar el IMEI del teléfono para que lo deje activar.

Gracias amigo, ya fui a 4 agencias diferentes incluyendo la principal. La gente que atiende parece no tener idea y solo se limitan a hacerme una "reposicion de chip" y al ver que eso no funciona ya solo me dicen que el telefono no esta desbloqueado, cosa que yo se no es así.
Me da la impresion que si podria ser algo asi, pero al menos la gente de escritorio que atiende en Servicio al Cliente no parecen tener ni idea de que hacer y al parecer uno solo tiene acceso a tratar con ellos. =/
EDIT: Acabo de hablar con un amigo que trabaja en Claro comentandole lo que me sugeriste motumbo sobre el IMEI, me dijo que mañana intentará ayudarme con eso. Te actualizo de cualquier cosa si eso lograra solventar el problema.

We're just talking about this is a mostly a carrier issue. I've a lot of experience traveling and swapping sim cards in many android phones I had before (X10, Inspire, Infuse, GNote, SGS3), right now I own a HOX and I haven't had any issue with it regarding sim swapping so I guess this could be just the carrier is not allowing his phone to get registered into the network.
By the way if you go to Settings>Mobile Network>Network Operator and you try searching operators with Claro Chip installed what happens? Does it say something like: It is not possible to get registered to the network? If so then your phone is reading the chip but the problem is just carrier.
Or maybe your carrier is using a band that is not supported by the hox

Please try (with patience) sticking thin paper/plastic plates on the back of the sim card to thicken it. This problem occurred after 3-4 months use. Since I unlocked the bootloader HTC decline to repair for free. After raising a complain to the consumer council, they replaced the motherboard for me free of charge. But your case seem different since it s no warranty at the beginning? (But I think your local HTC repair center would still repair it .. with or without maybe $40-50 international repair charge ....?)
Regards,
Kenneth
Was your sim card like this:
SIM card 1
http://www.internationalstudent.com/images/simcard.jpg
Or
SIM card 2
http://www.satphone.com/media/catal...972d/i/r/iridium-satellite-phone-sim-card.jpg
If it your SIM card was like the first one befone cut then it was ehen it was cut that the chip was broken. Only when the SIM card is like the 2nd one it suitable to be cut.
Or else you can have a bad SIM tray or motherboard.

Hello.
We in Slovenia actually had same problem. I bought unlocked HOX in France but it didn't work with my carriers micro SIM (carrier Mobitel). But it worked with my friends SIM from other carriers (Simobil and Tusmobil). So I returned HOX to France seller and bought HOX from Simobil carrier (Mobitel wasn't selling them). My SIM from Mobitel couldn't be recognized in this new device. I started to read forums and all ppl with Mobitel SIM had same problem with unlocked HOXs.
I took it to HTC repair center but they had no idea what could be wrong. And that I should wait for OTA update that was comming in few days. In a week when OTA came everything was resolved.
And few days later my carrier Mobitel started selling HOX. It was actually problem in HOX software.
On forums in Slovenia I saw maybe 20 ppl with same exact problem.
