Hello. First off I am a self proclaimed newbie. I have been studying and searching on how to root the ADP phone.
Previously I had RC83 and downgraded it to RC29, using Dreaimg.nbh. Unfortunately now I realize that I have AT&T, so when I try to log in to my gmail account, it is trying to access data through T-Mobile with no avail. I can't log on so I am stuck.
How can I reverse what I did and root this phone through an AT&T SIM? Can my phone be unlocked again?
Any help will be much appreciated.
APN
Sounds like it has to do with you APN settings...
Change from Tmo to AT&T... Android Dev Phone should be unlocked so that shouldn't be a problem.

Hi all,
I currently have T-Mobile (US) as my provider, and have just switched to Cingular this weekend. I have the T-Mobile MDA and want to know if it is possible to use my phone on Cingular's network. What do I need to do to unlock the phone and sim successfully to work on Cingular's network? Do I need to put Cingulars ROM on my phone to make it work? I've already tried loading their ROM on the phone, putting in their sim card but it doesn't work, I get an error telling me that the network isn't unlocked and asks me to put in the correct code to unlock the network.
Any thoughts/ideas/help?
Thanks I really appreciate any help!

Search the forums for "Unlock Wizard". You should come up with many hits, mostly around a program called lockowiz. It will SIM and CID unlock your phone.
Hi, and firstly, thanks to any and all who offer their knowledge to assist my conundrum.
I recently purchased a Bell Canada version of the SG Note 2 (i317), I am on Telus so I attempted to Unlock the phone. I looked online and found people were having success unlocking these phones for free using the *#197327640# method, (whereby you go into the service mode, turn off the PERSHO_256 and then INITIALLIZ).
I tried this method and the phone then seemed to work with my telus sim, but only for voice, not data. When I put in a Bell SIM from a friend, both voice and data worked fine - which tells me its not a hardware (radio) issue. I also tried using another friends Telus SIM and had the same results as mine - which tells me it's not a SIM error. Also, all the settings in the mobile network area appeared to be correctly set up.
So, my next step was to try and reflash the phone to the stock Bell ROM and then just buy an Unlock code. I downloaded the stock ROM (2 different ones actually) and used Odin 3.07 to reload the ROM. I've tried it several times now, with both Bell ROMs and each time it says it's been successful, but the phone remains in the same, partially unlocked state.
It seems as though by using the PERSHO_256 method I have permanently, PARTIALLY unlocked the phone. I can't seem to re-lock it by installing the stock Bell ROM, and since it's unlocked, I can't get the foreign SIM error to come up to enable me to put in my purchased unlock code.
If anyone has any insights, it would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

did you check and/or setup the apn? it may be just the apn is not set correctly or you have to manually input hte apn
sounds like just APN needs setting...
APN?
How would I check/setup the APN? Is this to allow me to do a full reflash to a stock ROM or to access data with the phone in it's current state?
left ownsho
So I went into ACCES POINT NAMES and checked the sp.telus.net box, no change. Did a restart. No change Any ideas?
Wooooo Hooooo!!!
So, it's working now!!! I dug a little deeper and found the correct APN settings for TELUS. NOW IT F*@^&#*&@ING WORKS!
Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction!!!
So I'm stressing out cause i've been researching all day and have came up with a million answers so i decided i should just make a post and hope for the best.
I have a US Cellular Galaxy S3 SCH-R530U 4.3.1 ROOTED.
I already have a Straight Talk SIM Card in it, however it has no service hooked up. None of the hidden codes to unlock my SIM is working on 4.3.1 and they just keep saying No Network Found
I've read that i can somehow flash my phone to get it to work with Straight Talk but i dont know how? I know it can work.
I just need to basically unlock my SIM so that it can work on Straight Talks network.

Straight R530U and US cellular S3 R530U are identical handsets. Once you have ota 4.3, nothing can be done to revive the hidden menu for SIM programming. I do a lot of USC S3 on international CDMA SIM programming but ever since it has the 4.3 update and knox bootloader, everything inside is locked. no downgrade or roll-back.

So flashing a lower version to like 4.1.2 is out of the question, am i right? I'm completely screwed with the galaxy s3 since i updated to 4.3?
Hello guys I was trying to root my Lg G pro E980 for AT&T. In my haste and eagerness to attain root on my device, I failed to notice some of the warnings in the OP. This is what I used to try to obtain root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2362657 As you can see, it states that it does not work on AT&T 10p. After trying (and failing). My phone would no longer detect my sim card! I tried factory resetting with no luck. I also tried taking the sim card out and restarting without the sim and then reboot with the sim. This did not work either. Searching for networks yielded a network error. If it matters, my phone is unlocked and using a T mobile sim. I was working perfectly before the failed root attempt and now I get no service connectivity at all! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Update: I flashed the phone to an earlier stock version of the AT&T rom using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302660 and it still does not seem to read my T-mobile sim or an AT&T sim either! Please, any help at all is appreciated!

Have you still got an IMEI number? If you haven't that is why your phone cannot read the sim. If you don't have an IMEI, it is because your EFS has been corrupted but that shouldn't happen when rooting. If you have an EFS backup flash that, otherwise you have to take it to a service centre as there is no way to write an IMEI number onto your phone.
Hello,
I have rooted my phone and have loaded a custom rom onto my Sprint Galaxy s6 but am still somehow unable to switch my phone to a different network. I paid a $200 fee to Sprint to unlock my phone and yet I am unable to switch to another network.
I'm trying to follow the guides on XDA for updating my frequency bands in order to be able to switch to Verizon but am unable to access any hidden menu to obtain my MSL. I've been following this guide here but cannot get QPST to recognize my phone...
Has anyone successfully switched from Sprint? How did you do it? I'm sort of a noob here so any in depth explanation would be appreciated. I'm jut trying to switch from this awful service...
