Ok, so you have a RHOD500 which is a CDMA device first and a GSM device second.
What I mean by this, is if you're using for GSM in the US, then you have to get the SIM slot unlocked.
Installing Android will do nothing at all, whatsoever to your SIM - so lets just leave that on the side.
With all that said, if your SIM worked before I'm really not quite sure what could have changed to break it. The SIM unlock I was talking about earlier wouldn't apply, if the exact same SIM worked previously.
So perhaps explain in detail what you've done and what you're trying to do. Have you changed carriers? SIM's? Anything like that? Does it work on the stock ROM?

Thanks for the reply.I managed to fix this problem by searching and reading .After checking Radio of the phone i seen it was a WV so i installed a WU radio and now my Sim is working.I don't know how my radio got back to a locked wv one but never the less thank god for these forums.Being a rookie at cell phones is rough but at least theirs plenty of help and info on the net.

Ah makes sense, I didn't even think about suggesting that. Enjoy!
Most roms will not load a radio, but a few will. Perhaps when you reloaded your rom changed the radio out. it If you watch the white screen during a rom load it will usually tell you what it is loading. I have some nhb files that will only change the boot screen art. So it is possible to mix and match what is loaded.
Glad you found the issue.

Hello
I just wanted to say HI. I just registered. Been exploring this site for some time now. I have the touch pro 2. I really like it. I have had a lot of phones, mostly iphones and blackberries (I used to sell them). Done a lot of unlocking, but now am getting into serious business
So just wanted to say Hi. Thanks for helping me get an education. I will say this information is very hard to navigate though. You guys are amazingly smart about this stuff.
So far I have the MightyROM. Trying to understand the different types of locks/locking. For the TP2. From Iphones I learned about basebands and firmwares. This TP2 is on a whole new level by comparison though. Very confusing. Trying to skim through the wiki. Information seems hard to come by. I have basic knowledge only pretty much, but it's all diverse (done light java programming, etc...)
Really interested in the Registry edit capabilities. Right now I just have Rescoe. I thought for sure there would be a way to unlock by going that route but doesn't seem to work on anything I have tried. Don't really understand the parameters/keys and don't know how exactly to find out.
I will just keep plugging away I guess. Tried to buy the security unlocker but ran into problems with paypal freezing my account and what not... I really hate paypal...
Thanks though. You guys do great things!
What is Security Unlock?
Ok hello again, I now have a very good question I think:
What is Security Unlocking?
I was reading the wiki and that clarified a lot of things for me as far as CID/ROM unlocking and SIM unlocking but I didn't see anything about security unlocking. I am under the impression that I need to security unlock but I don't know why and I would really like to know.
Last nite I tried to download and install the radio upgrades from Olipro but the phone bricked into bootloader and I had to reflash the mighty ROM to get it back up and running again. As my understanding is that I am currently CID/ROM unlocked but I can't seem to unlock the Radio/GSM without Security unlocking. Can please tell me why? Is this an added mechanism to prevent this that is recent advancement on the carriers part I am guessing but how does it work and why? Thanks so much if you tell me!!!

what do you mean by trying to unlock the radio? SIM unlock?
security unlock allows flashing non-stock radios. (but you must pay attention if you're flashing a radio that's compatible with your phone model.)

Well I'm not quite sure but I will explain what I am seeing.
When I put a SIM in the network doesn't register but it shows the new phone number in phone settings on the first tab. On the second tab in 'Network' it doesn't detect and keeps saying "searching for network" etc...
My radio says WF. the hhspl works fine and I can flash any ROM. The only ROM I haven't tried is a GSM ROM because in my understanding that bricks the phone (What is the brick? Tricolor? Black screen?). However I haven't been able to flash any Radio's at all. It gets to 100% and then quits with an error and reverts the phone to tricolor screen and the only way to get it out is to Reflash a ROM. I was able to Flash a Sprint ROM with the windows mobile 6.1 version. I have to say that one really sucks lol but it did manage to change the radio version. After I changed the Radio Version to 1.96WF I reflashed back to MightyROM and tried to run the unlocker again, didn't work. Then I tried to reflash another radio. Didn't work and bricked the phone to tricolor/bootloader again.
So am I CID locked Or Security locked? Either way the process should work I thought? None of the programs seem to be doing what they are fully designed to do.
Thnx a bunch!
Something!
I purchased a brand new T-Mobile SIM and IT REGISTERED!
I was able to call the T-Mobile Help line.
There was some trouble with the activation, but I think I got it. I guess I didn't need the security unlock after all???
weird. And the radio version is sprint. In my understanding, a sprint baseband/radio is not supported on T-mobile, yet I have access to the frequencies/bands. For example on an iphone in order to pick up frequencies from T-mobile or any other GSM carrier you have to upgrade the baseband/radio version to one that supports those frequencies. The last iphone I had I had to use an IPAD baseband in order to unlock it. So this is completely different.
THIS MAKES ME VERY VERY CURIOUS!
Yea the security unlocker doesn't work for the U.S. Cell version... at least mine it doesn't. I made some youtube videos and a thread to show that. I figured out another way to unlock though using the HardSPL, Flashing to a Sprint Stock ROM to get that radio, and then flashing again to MightyROM.
What I meant by unlocking the radio is basically I am thinking of the radio in terms of the radio picks up certain signals (like 800mhz, 850mhz, 1900mhz, etc...) but each carrier prevents their radios from picking up all but one of the signal, the one they use, and prevents the rest from communicating with the device (guessing this would be the device modem?) so when I say "unlock Radio" I was meaning unlock those other frequencies and get rid of the programming which blocks them and use my device to full capability.
So now I get to see what this baby can really do thanks

if you only flashed Hard-SPL, then you are still security locked in terms of radio.
Hard-SPL is only designed to unlock the SPL, not the radio. so, it does do what it was designed to do, unlocks your phone for normal ROM flashing.

both Hard-SPL and our sim/security unlocker (separate program from Hard-SPL) work for US cellular tp2.
as for the Tmobile SIM, some of the newer SIM cards will work with that sprint radio. not all of these SIM cards will.
Hi guys,
as much as i am an advancer user when it comes to doing stuff on android devices that with winMo i don't know what to do. I have read twice the reference thread with all the instructions but i am still lost, i don't understand everything. If someone could direct me to a IRC chat where someone could guide me step-by-step or someone is willing to spear some time and stay with me on a GTalk that would be awesome. Either way please direct me to someone, or a place where i could get a live help.
Thank you all in advance.

You haven't even asked a question here.
What are you trying to do?!?
uh Sorry
I am trying for the first time to change my ROM. I could read about HardSPL but in the guide there are something about some tickets from htc and some files from Microsoft website. Should i download it on my PC on my mobile how to flash it what to do with those files and this HTC thing. Generally how to bite these things. Do i have to be plugged in USB or no and so on so on.
I read it twice but i am still confused

HSPL you flash from ActiveSync. So get the phone sync'd, then run the HSPL installer (make sure you get the right one for your device!!)
Then, once you've flashed HSPL you can flash any ROM - either via SD or USB/ActiveSync.
ok that clears things up. Now the HSPL i get from htc website? and on the tutorial here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 it says to download a file If you have Vista or Windows 7, update WMDC to v6.1 *HERE* first do i download this to my phone or pc and flash it with active sync?

yes i got that part now, i guess i must be tired so the information didn't go to my brain as they should.
I got the HSPL now successfully and would like to ask you a question.
What ROM would you recommend? I am currently browsing the thread with all the ROM's, as well as each separably.
Thank you very much for your help and mainly patience.

Anyhoo, I like EnergyROM - but I don't really use WinMo anymore. I love Android too much . I use the Titanium version of Energy so I can quickly get into Android. That's all WinMo is for me anymore... a place to launch Android.

Did you unlock the SIM slot?
I know on the RHOD400/500 there's a SIM unlocker tool. I don't know if it applies to other RHOD's or not...
Update:
"Q6. Is there a SIM Unlock tool (or any other kind of paid service / hack) available to make this phone compatible with the US GSM service providers?
A. YES YES YES! Olipro and Cmonex have made this happen for real. Works with all CDMA Rhodiums."
Only applies to the CDMA RHOD's it seems. The GSM-only variants shouldn't need the SIM slot unlocked in any way shape or form.
hi
so does that mean that i will be forever unable to receive and make calls?
I have tried with my o2 UK sim card and funny enough i have a data connection but not signal. I can browse internet and stuff but cannot make any calls. With my 3UK card i have nothing. No data No phone calls. Is there a way to fix it or i basically just **** my phone up by taking simlock off?
I got it on ebay and it was locked to Orange. Before i flashed ROM i put my sim and entered the code to unlock the sim. If that was a mistake is there a fix or patch to help me out?
Please help me.

So this is a GSM-only RHOD? RHOD100 I'd guess?
If so, there's no reason to unlock the SIM slot on the device itself AFAIK. You would only need to unlock the SIM card itself.
I'm by no means an expert here, but based on what I've read the only SIM slot that needs unlocking or is even unlock-able on the RHOD is the CDMA variants (which both have SIM slots for GSM as well).
Sorry, maybe someone with some more knowledge on the GSM variants will respond.
Yes it is RHD100,
Before reading your posts i have already unlocked my sim slot as i was trying to use my 3uk sim in orangeUK handset. Usually in all handsets so far that was the way to use different sims. If what you say is true what are my options now?
To bump up my thread and question
After not much luck trying to fix it i still have a device that have no signal.
I have tried ROMs Radios flashes and all i could think of.
i have checked and the only way for me to use my phone was to unlock it via unlock codes. But since that day i have no signal what so ever.
I am willing to send my phone to some one for repair if you think you have a clue.
If you have any ideas how i can do it on my own please let me know as well as i really would like to use this. I know it is old and stuff but still would be nice.
Anyhow if you need more answers or info of what i have tried and done do not hesitate to contact me or reply here.

You're sure the hardware supports the bands you require for your provider?
Like arrrghhh says if your Rhodium supports the frequency bands for the provider you are trying to use it on then it should work. I suggest you talk with your 3UK tech support and give them the model # and see if you need a specific type of sim card for it to work or any suggestions they might have.
HI,
Thanks for your input. I know that it used to work on Orange UK network before taking sim lock. Usually most of UK devices worked together, especially that 3 UK have a partner agreement to use Orange network if you loose 3 Network. So it should work. I will give them a call and report back.
Kirior
Edit:
So the guy said that because my sim works in other handsets it must be a software/hardware and sim issue. He could not check it more as it was not a 3 handset so they don't bother. They, as a network, used to have a agreement with all the network to roam between each other, so that would mean that freq are same in all UK. I am running out of options. Any one willing to fix/help with it?
Edit 2:
Went to an orange shop on my way to work and tried one of theirs sim card. Handset worked flawlessly. My guess now is something went wrong with unlock maybe, or my sim is really incompatible with handset. Any ideas how to resolve it?
Thx in advance.

Hi i just bought a used HTC Desire HD and when i start it it says "T Mobile"
When i insert SIM card in it (Swedish) it says ""Limited service", i put in PIN but only limited service and then i have no signal...
I have tryed 4 different SIM, 3 swedish 1 thailand. Same thing.
When i go to settings network i can search for network operaters, then all the network i can have in sweden comes but i dosent matter wich one i choose it says : Your sim card does not allow connection to this network, which is very strange because if i have TELENOR sim inside and choose TELENOT it says the same...
Please someone help me
My guess would be that your phone is branded (SimLock) You have to have a t-Mobile sim card for it to work to you ave to get rid of the lock. Plenty of info about unlocking DHD in the forums.

downgrading and unlocking are different things even if you have downgraded the simlock stays on unless you unlock it.
yes but i use the ultimate multi tool, and did all. sim-unlock also and when check after it says sim unlock.
why is it not so i can put in code from network. it was like that with other phones wich is network locked. but this i put pin code and then limited service only.
so how do i then unlock sim ?
could it be that the lock is on your sim not the phone, try another SIM
have tryed 3 different swedish sim + 1 thai sim no working...
get the phone contacts and all from sim and pin. but no signal. finding the sim network in list but cant conect to it.... your sim does not allow connection. ?!?!

Hello, i have an xperia play which is R800i, it's bootloader unlocked, and should be network unlocked, if i go in that option with brackets like [] Network etc they are all with empty brackets and 0, according to some pages its fully unlocked, but still, i cannot get it to work, i've made several baseband changes, roms, etc,
what could be the problem of the phone? i bought it from someone that i usually buy stuff off, so i "shuld" be sure its not imei locked, but then, even if it was imei locked, would i be able to set a PINfor the SIM card? is there a way to check if there's a SIM card inserted in the phone from android? because i feel like it doesn't read my sim at all.
Please suggestions are welcome i tried everything, thank you
i can pay for a solution if its 100% working

hi,replying cause i have same problem..i unlocked the bootloader with sony offcial method the second i had it in my hands and flashed a custom rom(everything working fine before the flashing..)..oddly i could use data(browser youtube facebook ecc working) but no calls or text..so i relocked bootloader and flashed with seus but nothing to do,same problem data working but no calls or text..then i unlocked again tried some roms,then decided to relock and give a try again with seus..now it won't recognise the sim at all,and NO FASTBOOT,it was working fine before the 2nd flash with seus,and i know for sure it's not an hardware issue...flashed many simlock.ta(changing the name to preset.ta) with flashtools..bot nothing.now i can only flash stock tft,since fastboot is no longer working(so i can't unlock the bootloader for the 3rd time), everytime after first boot it ask to insert sim and reboot, even if it ask for pin if i set it..so it IS reading the sim...the radio is bricked,been searching for 2 weeks now, and no solution found. i contacted alejandrissimo, he said he coul fix broken trim area for 20$, but it isn't answering to my messages anymore..sorry bro it looks like our play it's gone forever as a phone, so far..

Check your APNs, from my experience they get reset if you flash a generic FTF

I'm 100% sure having a locked boot loader makes accessing fast boot impossible? If you can still flash FTF find one for an ICS Rom and see if that fixes it

thanks for replying, i reflashed with wotan and now i have unlocked bootloader, and can flash but the problem on 3g stiil exist. i'm on superjellybean8, and sometimes it will lose the signal on 3g(but data fully working) i get emergency call only,i can browse and other data task like facebook etc, but no call or text, so i turn airplane mode on off until it gets the signal(wich sometimes is very very painful and slow..). i usually get no problem on 2g..so may i start thinking it could be hardware problem on the 3g antenna or something? i've been using it for a couple month now,if i could get rid of the 3g problem it would be great..it makes me miss some important calls you know..

I'm pretty sure the GSM attenna is on the top left on the opposite of side of the power button, have you dropped it recently?
Just occurred to me now, call your service provider and see if the 3G tower in your area is undergoing maintenance

no one knows?
Won't you mind if I join this thread?
I've got r800i unlocked from aliexpress which was working fine but had non-working touch-sticks.
So I tried to flash newer firmware (.79) and end up with 'no service' problem.
Like OP I have "[] Network 0" so it's definitley not become locked but it doesn't see my provider.
The funny thing is that it does see one of the local providers but only one of three.
Tried different ftf's, currently on R800i_4.0.2.A.0.84_Vodafone DE_(1247-8566).
The only thing I know from the original firmware (from flashtool) is:
Current device : R800i - CB5A1D6HYX - 1247-6268_R8D - 1245-8821_4.0.2.A.0.42 - WORLD-1-8_4.0.2.A.0.42
As I understand this one had Meteor IE baseband.
Is this problem has something with firmware or could it be antenna/hardware problem?

I had problem with "no service" after flash FTF, so the idea its baseband related, I try flash another one, and with R800i_-80_Baseband_GSM.ftf I have success, i have carrier again. maybe help someone

Thanks bro, but I sent the faulty device back to China. That's was the first idea - to change basebands, but that didn't help either in my case.
Hi all. I have G3 bought from my carrier it is on stock lolipop recieved over the OTA. Only thing I was messing with it is TWRP and root.. As I thought it is sim locked I put another carrier sim in it. It boots without asking me for sim unlock code but can not connect to network and not allow me to enter network settings to o it manually ( it is greyed out ). The other sim works fine in another unlocked android phone.
Someone have an idea what is going on??
I have no idea. Sorry man

I had my share of rooting and installing custom recoveries and ROM-s for a long time, so my current thought is, is it possible that it is just software locked somehow?
I never saw this before..
Solved the problem, it was built in the Rom provided by my carrier "Vip.rs" grab my hand on new Sim card of different carrier on Fulmics 3.1 and it is carrier free. Just to tell you, if more people in Serbia have the same problem.
