Hello all. Let me start from the top.
I have the Lumia 900 that was given to me that had a PUK code put in too many times. I have re flashed it recovery and refurbished with the Nokia care suite stock rom. It still will not accept sim cards. Any thoughts on what next I can do? It is an att if it helps.

Might be a silly question, but did you try an ATT Sim?

Sorry, I should have included that into my information. Yes, I did indeed try multiple ATT sims, and other carriers.
Sounds like possible hardware failure... do you get a no sim error?

I purchased mine as unlocked but haven't had the chance to try another company's sim card on it to verify that.
I checked with the *#7465625# code and it looks exactly like yours.
I unlocked my sgs2 and tried that code and everything is OFF.

It looks like you are in different ROM. To unlock ur phone you need to be on stock ROM!
I did it on my s2. I was unable to use code on AOKP so i flash stock rom, unlock , rooted again and back to stock again.

Not really. Looks like that code won't show the correct status for S3. This is how it looks on stock rooted.

I requested and received the unlock code from T-Mobile. I tested this by making a call using an AT&T sim card.
My screen is identical to the one above, including the typo. My phone is definitely unlocked!!!
Same thing, as all of you. I get the same pop up. I tried it yesterday with an att SIM card and it worked on their network.

Nope, your good to flash to your heart's desire lol
Quick question, sorry its a bit off topic, how did you guys get your phone unlocked?
I've read threads about Tmobile being friendly enough to send you a unlock code, but I currently have AT&T. Does that affect the process any?
Yes att does give out lock codes ... just have to wait a certain amount of days..and once unlocked always unlocked... flash away..

Hi everyone,
So I installed CM10 on my P930. Since then, I couldn't connect to my carrier's cellular network. I can't make calls, receive text messages, or access mobile data. Can anyone give me some advice in terms of what to do?
Thanks.

Hi Rani,
No luck. I flashed every single baseband there was in this thread by drumist (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1842763), but none worked.
well try unbrick and don't flash official ics
I tried the unbrick, no luck either.
I just noticed that the lock screen says no SIM card, when I actually do have a SIM card installed.

No, the original carrier is Bell. I unlocked it and I'm using it on Rogers now. I tried another Rogers SIM, but still don't work.
You probably need to put in your APN settings.
does anyone have the Bell stock gingerbread ROM i could restore? Want to send it to LG for warranty repair. I looked at the SIM slot and it looks like its missing a gold contact (top right).

So I tried to activate a used Note 2 I just bought from someone on Canada's Telus network. According to the CSR the phone is not unlocked. Is there something I can do on the phone to check this?
I tried the "*#simlock#" or "*#simlock#*" or "*#simlock" and all of them just say "Not registered on network."
I did a IMEI lookup and it says my phone is not "blocked" (stolen?) but I can't find anything on how to check if it's locked or not.
Go in the boot loader and choose the sim lock option

Hold the power button + down volume when your phone is shut down!
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
If I press and hold those 2 keys it just continually reboots. If I press and hold them until something comes on the screen and then let go it just goes into Android.
If I add the Home button to the mix, I end up at the "Downloading..." screen at which point I need to pull the battery to reboot it.
I am a complete noob to Android, by the way, if that wasn't clear.
Haha alright... do you have an other carrier sim card?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
No. The only SIM card that will fit (microSIM) is the Telus one I just bought. I have a work phone on Bell but it's not a microSIM and I'm not going to cut it or I won't be able to put it back in my work phone.
I should clarify that the Note 2 was being used on Bell and I am trying to use it Telus but they said it wasn't unlocked and they couldn't put it on their network.
I also read that I should get a warning error if I put a different SIM in and it is not unlocked but I started it up with my Telus SIM and got no errors.
I'm starting to wonder if they just had a typo in the IMEI or something but if I can find something on the device to prove it's unlocked then I'll know for sure.

Well actually, if your phone was on BELL and you are using it on TELUS and receving sms,data,etc... your unlocked!

That's the problem. They refused to activate it saying it wasn't unlocked. So no, I am not receiving anything on it. If I hadn't had problems getting them to activate it, I probably wouldn't be posting this.
I have a totally different phone which is s-off and unlocked boot loader and all that. If I go to that option in my fastboot screen and I her a bunch of errors like emmc fail and such would that indicate my phone was sim locked? I'm on a droid incredible 4g LTE from Verizon. I'm just curious! Thanks

I just want to check since I have no idea how the CSR knew. They just told me it must not be unlocked but I think they just messed something up on their end.

Looks promising. I don't get a network lock dialog like they show, though. That's why I don't think it's locked. The reason I'm not getting anything from the network is probably because they didn't activate the new SIM because they were having some kind of issue with the IMEI. It'd be nice if they filled in the customer a little more about what the issue is.

Apparently I was right because I called them again today and they didn't even want the IMEI which is what they were having problems with yesterday and now that I've got the SIM activated I'm sending and receiving calls so I guess it's unlocked after all.
Yes it is haha your sim wasn't activated that was the problem !

Just unlock the Sim card.
Either find the unlock threads on here (there are a few) or phone Rogers and ask for the unlock code.
