Hi all,
I need some help. I simlocked my orange branded Xperia Arc 3 weeks ago, then I used the 3 sim. Last week I went to spain and change the card to Orange. But unfortunately, after returing back to uk and using the 3 sim card, I found out that the phone told me emergancy calls only. And use any other sim card will get this information but only orange.
Need help.
Too many thanks.

Hi All,
I noticed yesterday that my MDA Pro (T-mobile UK) had re-booted and come up with the SIM lock keypad, BUT there was the following error invalid or missing sim card.
Now, I tried a soft & hard reset and took the SIM out and re-fitted it without success.
I re-ran Buzz's Universal SIM unlock but still no joy.
I've had the PDA for several months (got it on ebay) used many ROM's without any problems what so ever until yesterday. I left the phone this morning updating with the latest T-Mobile (UK) ROM... now what is wrong??
(1) Is there a fault with the SIM card??
(2) Have T-mobile found out that my phone is now different to my original contract phone? and blocked the SIM/phone??
(3) Is there a hardware issue with my MDA Pro..
I guess I'll try the SIM in my wife's unlocked orange phone to check.
The odd thing is that my MDA had been connected to my PC all this week (I haven't taken it out) and the SIM problem only showed up yesterday?
Any help gladly received (
Cheers
John
Cleaning the sim card and the connectors on the phones with a dry cloth works for me.....
Just tried my SIM card in my wife's unlocked SE Z600 and it says "No SIM" - so I guess my sim card has died?? - Is this possible???
Definately Duff !! T-mobile sending me a SIM free of charge!!
Hi,
I've tried to use my company simcard within my MDA Compact 2 but it won't work!! Any suggestions? The Compact 2 is probably simlocked but since I also use T-mobile in privat I got no idea why it doesn't work!
I got the new ROM update from T-Mobile Austria!
Please Help
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Your company is using T-mobile
You personally uses T-Mobile
You are in Austria
You used the Austria T-mobile upgrade
Right?
What is the message you see when you use your company SIM
absolutly right!
The SIM says T-Mobile! The SIM Card is working fine on my company cell phone!
This is really strange! There shouldn't be any difference between privat and company contracts cause it's the same network (T-Mobile)
The Compact 2 acts like there's no SIM Card in it
... T-Mobile Austria provided a ROM update to solve some bugs!
Before I switched to the new update I tryed the company SIM - Same result!
if the sim card is old it may not be compatible with the device
it's been know to happen
would it make any difference on an unlocked phone?
Or is it not possible to use this sim card at all?
If the phone act as though as there is no SIM card at all, it doesn't sound like a locked phone. a locked phone will gives you various unhelpful messages. Probably as Rudegar said, in compatible SIM card. I have not heard any thing (case or solution) on SIM incompatibility. Can't help you.
one could always ask for a new sim
i've don that before my network sendt me
one right away
I guess I'll try to get a new SIM!
This will probably solve the problem
Cheers, guys
I got a Tmobile compact IV (diamond) sevral weeks ago in nerthlands. and flash the rom successfully.
However ,there is a boring issue that the machine always went to death when the TMOBILE sim card inserted in. while i use other sim cards it can work!!
I really dont know what is the hell going on with the fuking machine. I even unlock the sim lock and pay for 15 euros!! The mater still exist~~
forgive my bad english . and anybody can help me ?
maybe you have a faulty sim card?? try another t mobile sim card - if you unlocked it and all other sims work it should be fine
Up to what state it boots up before dying.
i also got my t-mobile phone recently.
when i inserted the t-mobile sim card in, it froze the mobile while searching for network...
t-mobile told me that is because my sim card from t-mobile is not activated yet and it usually takes 48 hours before I can use it.
when did you choose to "activate your contract"? did you choose to activate it immediately?
you can try the t-mobile sim card on other phone. it must also show "limited service".
I guess the problem is not your phone.
hi guys
I have recently got back from australia where i bought an unlocked note 2 7105t. I have used the phone in oz with no dramas and with different sims. As it was unlocked i thought it would be ok to use in the uk. I have put an orange sim card in and its not blocking it but i cannot make any calls even to the customer service number. Check balance or find out what my phone number is
I have also tried with a friends sim card and i couldn't make any calls with that either. No errors are given and it reads the sim.
Does anyone know what is wrong
Its driving me mad!!
Thanks in advance
Change the modem and baseband....and try again.....:good:
hi i dont think that works
Hi guys
I know this is not the right forum for this old phone, but I felt this is the only place where I could find some help - Its funny, finding info about old phones is so hard these days! If anybody can help me with this it will be greatly appreciated.
I have a Sony Ericsson W350a bought through AT&T in USA. I moved back to India and got it unlocked from a random mobile repair shop. It worked for some time and now it appears to be locked again.
But the strange thing is that if I am traveling abroad, any SIM works (including my Indian Vodafone SIM). But when I am in India then no SIM works, the phone says 'Emergency Calls Only' and on manually searching and trying to connect to any network it says 'Forbidden Network'.
Is there anything I can do to 'fully unlock' the phone?
Thanks for taking the time!
