Just making sure - root and unlocking without SIM card

I'm purchasing a Desire Z on Friday and for some reason I started thinking about whether I need a SIM card in the phone or not to root + SIM unlock it. My carrier is Rogers and the phone will be from Bell, for which I have no active SIM card.
I'll be fine for doing everything necessary to get it to work with my Rogers SIM without one actually in it, right?
Lol
You cannot use that phone on rogers without sim unlock

That's what I'm saying, I'm going to unlock the phone. I just wanted to make sure I can do it without a SIM card IN the phone because the only active one I have is the one I need to unlock the phone to use.
To unlock it put in your rogers sim it'll ask you for the unlock code. If entered correctly you can use it with your rogers sim

Pretty sure you can unlock it without a SIM in. There is another recent thread from a guy using a G2 in the UK on O2, and it wouldn't pick up a signal until he ran gfree on it to unlock it properly.

I'm pretty sure you can only do it from the stock ROM with the different SIM card.
The unlock code will only work with a foreign SIM.

What? Did you not read the second post? "MUST BE ON STOCK ROM!"
For both the MMI code to work and for the non branded sim card to work. STOCK ROM ONLY. K?
Flash STOCK ROM via ODIN.
Instert sim card.
Boot up.
Enter unlock code.
Confirm its working (I just called my house)
Flash whatever ROM you have as your DD
Enjoy.
Im assuming stock rooted is OK? Or does the phone need to be unrooted?

Stock rooted is fine. It just has to be stock because the custom ROMs dont have the proper coding necessary for the unlock prompt to appear.

[Q] No sim card inserted problem

Hi everyone!
I just got a T-mobile sgh-m919 from USA.
But when i tried to insert my own local sim card (not t-mobile and not american also) , the device just can't able to read the sim itself.
It doesn't give me some code to insert and things like that and i also tried to follow a orders to unlock or something like that but its still wont work.
I know that the problem is not at the sim utself because I got also google edition device that works with this sim normally.
I dont have a problem to install rom and root my phone if needed and also if i have to pay few dollars to open it is cool but i really have no idea what sould i do...
so if anyone knows... please let me know!
Thanks! :laugh::laugh:
Make sure the sim card slot is clean, and is the sim an original micro or a cut micro?

Get a new sim that is NOT cut.. Sometimes it gives problems when you use cut sim cards

There is a way to bypass it as long as the device never took the 4.4.2 official update.. Do a little search in the general or development forum and you will find your answer! Its an app called region unlock

because it doesnt asks for activation code...

Will it not pick up service? Verizon phones are usually unlocked by default

I did it! it just needed to change from LTE to GSM
But .. the error of the unknown sim still there... what can I do?
and i read a little bit here and saw that i can't install custom roms on this device with CWM (I got the mk2 build)
so.. this safestrap is the only way? kind of scary yo me.. not as simple as other phones.....
And anothe Q... in the T-mobile device, ( android 4.2.2) I dont have those problems? in this device i can install CWM? I'm already got root on this device but it didn't install the CWM i think...
Thanks!!!
Is the network on the Verizon phone set to global? If so and you're using an original micro sim then you might have better luck in the Verizon forums.. As for the T-Mobile device, yes you can install custom recovery, it's not locked down like the Verizon model

unable to use wind sim card.

Hello, I have a huge problem with my t mobile sgh t999, when i put my wind sim card in it, it shows no network available, and when i try to register to a network, 302490 is displayed instead of WIND. When I try to connect to it, it says that my sim card is unable to select the network.
Anyone got any solutions?
Have you checked if the apn is correct? Is it unlocked? Can you get another SIM from someone and try it?

Lollipop on Vodaphone

I have my phone on a Virgin sim however my wife has hers on Vodaphone......wondering if I can update OTA using her sim in my phone ??
I believe phone is SIM locked so your SIM card would not work.
But you can always try.
But I believe update wont go through.
