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

Hi all,
I currently have T-Mobile (US) as my provider, and have just switched to Cingular this weekend. I have the T-Mobile MDA and want to know if it is possible to use my phone on Cingular's network. What do I need to do to unlock the phone and sim successfully to work on Cingular's network? Do I need to put Cingulars ROM on my phone to make it work? I've already tried loading their ROM on the phone, putting in their sim card but it doesn't work, I get an error telling me that the network isn't unlocked and asks me to put in the correct code to unlock the network.
Any thoughts/ideas/help?
Thanks I really appreciate any help!

Search the forums for "Unlock Wizard". You should come up with many hits, mostly around a program called lockowiz. It will SIM and CID unlock your phone.
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!
So I sim unlocked my GT-S5660m with the BML5 method and it is also rooted. It was originally locked to Virgin/Bell and I have a Fido sim. The unlocked worked as I checked the lock status and they are all off.
The problem is that when I put my Fido sim card in it takes it and shows me Fido as the network I'm on but it says that I'm roaming? (the little R icon by the signal bars shows). How is it possible that I am roaming on the network I'm supposed to be on?? Has anyone run into something like this?
Quick update. Did a factory reset and battery pull and now it asks for the network unlock pin code again. I enter it and it unlocks it again but it seems the unlock doesn't stick...
Hi I have a SGH-T989D (telus/koodo) showing Network unknown (emergency calls only).
Bought unlocked phone with 2.3.5 Gingerbreard (telus software) phone is Koodo worked on with Virgin mobile SIM. Updated using Samsung Kies to ICS 4.0.3 after that network status reads Network unknown. My SIM dosen't work, Tried Koodo SIM worked for a sec. then shows network unknown. Tried Rogers SIM asks for Network unlock code. Put in Bell SIM shows same as Virgin SIM network unknown.
I flashed the phone with ICS 4.0.4 Koodo (T989DTLLG2_T989DKDOLG2_T989DTLLG2_HOME.tar.md5) found at sammobile. Phone still reads network unknown.
I am a noob so can anyone help me to get my phone to work as a phone again.
EDIT: Thanks for all the help phone is working

your phone is still network locked, you need to unlock it.
there is an app but it requires that the phone is rooted. It's in google play for $1.99 (i think) galaxy sim unlock.
hit thanks if i helped.

Phone: SHG-I317
Carrier: AT&T
Current Firmware: 4.1.1
Hey guys, I purchased this phone and have yet to officially activate it. I downgraded from 4.1.2 so that I could unlock it to work on other networks. I did the unlock procedure and I attempted to put in a METRO PCS Sim card but I get: Phone not allowed mm#6. The phone is not blacklisted as Ive checked numerous sites online and even went to a AT&T store and they were able to pop a AT&T Sim card in and it worked just fine.
I tried to search this issue but the only thing I can come up with was that it could possibly be blacklisted but Ive ruled out that possibility for now.
Could it be that the unlock was unsuccessful and I need to do it again? But then how am I supposed to know that it was successful without another carriers sim card? is there something that changes in the settings or something?
Thank you very much for your help.
