[Q] Radio Flash & Sim Unlock

Hello dear xda fellows
I bought a Bouygues Telecom (French provider) HTC desire in August 2010, and flashed it with :
ROM : Open Desire 4.10
Radio : 32.44
I called Bouygues Telecom to get a Sim Unlock Code, as my phone does not work with SFR. They told me my phone is already unlocked, which is possible as I got my phone at a shop which sells unlocked phones.
After doing some research I saw this HTC hero thread, which stands it can be a bug from using too recent radio.
Tried to flash with 32.43 but still the same : when I use SFR sim, I'm asked "Sim Network Unlock Code".
Any idea ? How can I be sure that my phone is actually blocked or not ?
Thank you very much for your help, xda is great.

Try using the sim unlock tool...a quick search should locate it.

That worked right away, amazing.
Cheers.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Note II working only on one GSM network

Hello, This is my first ever post on this website. Please bear with me if it's too long or confusing.
I have a Galaxy Note II I317. It's basically an AT&T phone but when I insert SIM from another carrier (e.g. H2O) it doesn't ask me for an unlock code. Moreover, I have an unlock code from AT&T as well.
The phone shows full signal strength for the mobile carrier. However, I'm unable to send sms or make a phone call. Whenever I try to place a call, it says "emergency calls only". I tried this in USA and now I'm in Pakistan.
Here, I encountered the same problem. We have five major networks here in Pakistan. Ufone, Zong, Telenor, Mobilink and Warid. I tried with Ufone, Warid and Telenor. The phone works OK with Telenor but experienced the above problem with Warid and Ufone. I have rooted the phone, downgraded to 4.1.1. and then back to 4.4.2. However, nothing seems to work. Mobile repair shops are also of no help. If anyone has any idea, I will really appreciate this.

Hi,
You can try this thread, and ask about it here if you wish,

Good luck!

I have tried this method but I don't get the option "now you are in [6] Network Lock then choose [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ".
I looked around on internet for this problem and found that this methods works with 4.1.1 and below. Moreover, this is for mobiles which ask for an unlock code. My Galaxy Note II doesn't ask for an unlock code.

I will have your thread moved then to your device section, so the experts who own your device can help.

Help unlocking a Note 2 i317M with TELCEL

Dear members of the XDA Forum:
I have looked in the other suggestions by the XDA forum and I haven´t been able to find a case similar to mine. Thus I post my case:
I have a Note2 i317M (LTE) that is locked with TELCEL (Mexico). Since I came to Sweden I needed to be able to unlock it for an swedish SIM card. I did requested a code to cellphone unlock using my IMEI, but after months of wait due to SMASUNG servers being down, I got a reply that it was not possible to get a code.
Then I tried to unlock the phone myself. Therefore I rooted, installed the DN4 ROM hoping to have an unlocked Modem, but when I inserted another SIM card it request an unlock code. Then I tried installing the DN3 without and with a full wipe (in my second attempt) without success (still got an unlock code requested). After this I tried the *# method but when I finish input the last # nothing happens. Then I tried to flash a Rogers modem and now I have it like this, but still requires unlock code and the *# still doesn´t work. Other modems (MJ9 and Telcel´s ML2) make me loose my IMEI and STILL requires unlock code. The phone is still unlocked and it sucks in a country where everybody has 4G . Can anybody help me? Would really appreciate it! Thank you in advance. The phone specs are as follows:

S20+ SM-G985F locked to Spain Movistar (XEC) - any way to unlock for Czech rep?

Hi,
A short story about a cheated friend with a baby at the end. Im findig solutions for her.
Could anyone please advise if and possibly how to unlock S20+ SM-G985F locked to Spain Movistar (XEC)?
Just making calls with a Czech SIM is enough.
From what I've browsed the information the code to unlock the SIM may not work with this operator and it's not out of her sight.
After restarting the phone from CZ SIM o2 phone does not want the code to unlock operator lock.
If I understand correctly, changing the ROM will not help. And I can't possibly put in any but some matching CSC or CSC change.
I have tried SAMkey but according to the description it will not unlock this tel. Or does it?
The log from SAMkey is below:

Short story.
Friend of mine with a small child bought a second-hand mobile phone with money saved from her maternity leave and without consulting me. Unfortunately, the person in question was a scammer and sold her an S20+ locked to the Spanish operator Movistar (XEC), which I only found out later. He assured her that it would work for her in CZECH.
I'm trying to deal with the return, but I would like to find a solution for sure that she will be able to use it if we don't catch up with the scammer. I'll catch up anyway and turn it over to the police, but I need to help this friend's mom.
Thank you very much for your help and directions.
