[Q] Network Unlock code trouble - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the network unlock code for my ROOTED Orange HTC Desire which says it is accepted when entered. Once the phone has booted on the non-Orange sim it doesn't receive a signal from the network and an error is reported when I try and search for available networks. Each time I reboot the phone I have to re-enter the Network Unlock code again.
The SIM card being used is active as I have proved it on another SIM free phone.
I am running Redux-2 2.31 ROM with the original Radio.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Does anybody know how to overcome the problem?
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Error While Scanning for Networks after Unlock

I've ordered an unlock code for my TELUS-branded HTC Desire. I'll be travelling to the USA and want to use the AT&T network.
I've inserted the AT&T SIM that I received from them. When the phone boots, I enter my unlock code and it says "Network unlock successful!", then goes to my home screen. The phone says "EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY" and there is no cell reception at all.
I've tried the following:
1) *#*#4636#*#*, WDCMA Only
2) Flashing a different ROM (Using CM6-Nightly now)
3) Flashing a new radio
It's also strange, as each time I reboot the phone and the AT&T SIM Card is in the phone, it asks for my Unlock Code each time.
I've seen a few people report the same or similar issues, but never any resolution.
Any help?

Orange SIM-locked Desire not unlocking with valid code

Hi, so as topic I have the unlock code.
When I put Tesco SIM in there and boot, I see a grey screen with
"SIM network unlock PIN"
I input the code and then see
"Network unlock successful"
but the Tesco SIM does not register on the network.
I am 99% sure I need to reflash the radio as described in my forum searches - but has anyone encountered this and can suggest an exact radio version please?
Thanks!

HTC Desire 816 a5_chl (Virgin Mobile) trying to network unlock!

I have an HTC Desire 816 from Virgin Mobile currently on stock Lollipop. It was previously on CyanogenMod but I switched back to unlock the network. I'm trying to unlock the phone with a foreign sim card. I've been trying to get the unlock code prompt to show up by booting with the unauthorized sim in. I get a prompt to put the sim card's pin in, then I get an "invalid sim" notification but never an unlock code prompt. The sim is currently activated & it works in a different phone. Also tried a different sim that also has service, but same thing.
Tried rooting the phone & disabling system write protection to use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44255011&postcount=10
I also tried different combinations of dial codes to get the unlock prompt to pop up. Nothing seems to work.
I thought about trying to get S-OFF next and checking the CID, but would this make a difference? No idea what else I could try.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
I spoke with jcase he said sunshine should work now but it is untested on a v.m version,sunshine has network unlock for sprint devices and that's what v.m network uses

No service/SIM card not being registered

Hello.
I'm from Portugal and bought an HTC 10 wich is locked to T-Mobile.
Already got unlock code for it but i insert a portuguese network sim card and i never get the message to place the unlock code.
I checked the IMEI at T-Mobile website and it shows : Your device is blocked and will not work on T-Mobile’s network.
Already unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone, thought that would be enough to overcome the T-Mobile app ( wich is to unlock the phone for the network ).
Any tips or comments on how i can solve this issue and use the phone with another sim card?
Thanks in advance

Unregistered Sim N930W8

Hi All,
Trying to put this phone on the network but received the error unregistered sim.
Rogers network.
Is there a kernel or Rom flash that would resolve this?
Trying to put it on the network so I can get into Samsung tools and reset the lock screen.
Thanks
