Hello. I will describe the problem, after not successful repair in the service, there was a need to replace the motherboard. Got t-mobile at a better price. but when changing CID to HTC_007 and reflashing to the European version, the problem with blocking the network was not far off, I looked through a bunch of forums but I didn’t find anything on T-Mobile. I tried as a sprint, but without success either (what could be the reason and how to solve it? Htc 10 s-off unlock.
Start with giving important information
1: give ALL info that is written in download mode
2: what EXACTLY did you flash and tried, including software versions and firmware numbers
Are you using T-Mobile inside Europe or outside Europe ?

Hello everyone, I gave the phone for repair, now there is another one in which I don’t even know the operator, only that he is from Europe. The seed has been changed to me, after updating to Oreo, it requests the sim unlock code.

Than it's the sim because the device is a carrier unlocked one. You are aware that when the simcard itself is secured with a startup pin code it has not really something to do with the device.

I beg your pardon but I understand the difference between PIN code lock and unlock Sim when you turn on the SIM card asks to enter 8 digits unlock. Not yet introduced not never.

Another theory :
The seller bought a t mobile unit and made it S-OFF, converted to nougat euro unlocked and unlocked the t mobile sim/network that would explain your working T-Mobile SIM on the unit. You flashed the oreo ruu which reset the network flag ?
PM me the serial and imei of the device, let's see if there is some info coming from that.
And test your SIM in another device if possible to make sure it works.

SIM card works on another HTC M10 / Serial number / IMEI
DELETE your IMEI and SERIAL. I asked for a PM. Never place that kind of info on an online platform !

Only sim unlocked phones can use the sony bootloader unlock service, you will have to pay one of the people here for a remote unlock if you want sim/bootloader unlocked.
Thank you.
Just a nother quick question...
since i have a 4G AT&T xperia play i can acctually unloack the bootloader and by re-flashing the ROM actually preform a SIM unlocking like it discribed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034371

will this work on my AT&T 4G device ?

Nope, this link is for sim unlocked phones
I'm gonna use Alejandrissimo in the general forum to unlock my phone tonight...
ok ... so just to make sure i got it right:
1. i need to first unlock my sim
2. i will be able than to unlock the bootloader
?
did i got it right ? since this is actually collides with what i'm reading here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349669
[astralmaze05]: ok i understand, if i sim unlock it using the online unlocking services will it also unlock my bootloader automatically?
[Logseman]: No. However, the contrary is true: if you pay to unlock your bootloader your Sim lock will vanish as well.

Here you see that it was said that unlocking the SIM doesn't mean that you can unlock the bootload...
any response ?
I insist: unlocking your sim won't unlock your bootloader, you will have to unlock it separately.
However, unlocking the bootloader automatically sim-unlocks the phone.
Thus, save yourself the grief, contact any of the unlockers mentioned in the thread of my signature, and just unlock the bootloader.
I will since i'm seeing it getting more complex then i wanted.
but still i want just to understand if unlocking your sim won't unlock the bootloader but, after the sim is unloacked then i could use the bootload unloacker online from sony, no?
No, you can't. The official Sony bootloader unlocking method is only valid for phones which were sold originally Sim-unlocked. Sim-unlocking an originally Sim locked phone will not make you eligible for the Sony bootloader unlocking method, so you would have to use Alejandrissimo's bootloader unlock method anyway.
Thank you ! now i got it!
i hope this thread will be a good use for others as well.

No matter what you do, you can NEVER use the official bootloader unlocker.

I would like to thank Alejandrissimo for his quick and working unlocking method from remote!!! works wonderful!!!
I just used this service...
http://www.cellunlocker.net/sony-ericsson-unlock.php
Make sure you have another SIM Card that is different from your service provider. Only $7.99, thought it was a good deal.
Edit:
Fudge, I should have read a little longer ...

Hi,
I bought brand new inactivated sprint htc one m8 harman kardon. I managed to get it bootloader unlocked, S-Off, rooted, and TRWP 2.7.0.2. I'm trying to get the SIM unlocked but I couldn't. I used the following method to unlock the sim but I couldn't pass step 4 as I reach to hit "start" but nothing happens. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2718150&page=5)
I also tried to install roms but when the mobile boot after I get successful installation, it reboots on bootloader screen only.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks.
you do realize that post you linked to right at the top it says 100% works from GSM unlocks. nowhere does it say anything about CDMA phones...? which your sprint model is...
and yes i know what your going to say it has a GSM sim card slot but it doesnt matter.
when people say compatible with GSM models it mostly means international GSM and US(ATT/TMOBILE) phones. CDMA phones are a bit more complicated. cause theres the extra CDMA radio partition.

you dont need to unlock the SIM in order to use custom roms. all you need is to unlock the bootloader using the HTC unlocker

First of all, sorry for my bad english, it is not my native language.
I bought an HTC One M9 from Hong Kong through eBay It comes with Marshmallow stock I guess, it doesnt have any carrier trash app (nor even the radio app). It works well and everything but the problem is that I can't update the phone. It says only CDMA can update. It has S-OFF and the bootloader is locked:

I tried to unlock the bootloader with the HTC Developers website method, but my phone doesn't shows the OEM Activate option in the Developers Menu. I tried to update my phone through some RUU's for Unlocked devices and they fail (you need the correct RUU message).
My CID is 11111111
My MID is 0PJA30000
I hope you can help me with this.
Also, is this normal?

You have a Verizon HTC One m9.
You will need to use RUUs specifically made for the Verizon Model, not Unlocked versions.
In order to Unlock the bootloader(not sure you really need to), you will probably have to use Sunshine, which is likely how the device became s-off to begin with. (not sure why the previous owner relocked it, but kept s-off)
As you cannot Unlock a Verizon branded HTC device using HTCdev option. Verizon makes them block it for their variants.
You'll also find more information and files relative to your device in the Verizon M9 forum, rather then here in the Gsm section.

Good day.
I'm from the Philippines. I bought an A70 and I wanted to use my old sim, which is Globe, but whenever I insert my Globe sim, or there are no sim in the sim tray, this always pops up and i can't use my phone unless I use my Smart sim.

Whenever I insert both my Smart and Globe sim, I could use the phone but I can not turn on the mobile data of my Globe sim cause it's grayed out.
And this also also pops up in the notifications and I can't swipe it off.
I tried downgrading the firmware to A705MNXXU3ASG6 before.
Then I updated to A705MNXXU3ASJ1. (Both stock firmwares I flashed are XTC.)
I did the *#272*IMEI# and chose XTC even though my phone is already in XTC.
I also tried SAMTool(Says Unlock Successful)
The phone technician at the mall i went to used SamKey(Failed)
I even used '01234567' and '00000000', the unlock codes SAMTool says to use, on #7465625*638*#
But the 'Smart Communications Inc.' still pops up whenever there is no sim or I insert my Globe sim.
My OEM Unlock is hidden as well. Whenever I go to download mode, it says on the screen, 'OEM LOCK : ON (L)'.
Tried this : https://www.xda-developers.com/fix-missing-oem-unlock-samsung-galaxy-s9-samsung-galaxy-s8-samsung-galaxy-note-8/
And the solution here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a70/help/oem-unlock-168-hours-t3994553
But OEM Unlock is still hidden.
I hope someone can help me with this. Would really appreciate it.
@BK☑️ Sir, could I ask for your help on this. I don't know what else to do.
Sad for you bro. Did you try asking for help from samsung ph? Seems a bit off to have 2 sim slots but have them locked to one company. Adik talaga smart!

Haven't tried that yet. Salamat. Sa greenhills ko kasi to nabili. Mukang within the contract period ba tong phone. First time ko rin kasi bumili ng phone in years, di ko tuloy natanong kung openline ba or hindi. Engot lang. Haha.
it look like your smart garbage sim is showing this kind of 'bloatware' thing , did you could use your globe sim before on a70? if yes , then the updates in philippines for MN variants force you to use their smart garbage and prevent you from using your globe sim, or just your globe seen been desactivated by your globe service provider, if you root and install another firmware like lineage , it should work, if even on lineage os or any other custom firmware it still show that smart garbage , then it's the sim itself who won't allow you to use any other sim than their own, what angry me the most is that they say thanks for using it while they force you to use their garbage, ill help you to root it , ill also make sure that you are actually able to activate your OEM unlock , im sure your sim prevent you from unlocking your device.

Thank you for replying sir. Really appreciate it.
Yes, I can still use my Globe sim on other devices. I'm currently using it on my SM-T535. It seems the seller sold me the A70 while it is still under contract with Smart. Sadly we only have 2 major service providers here in the Philippines thanks to the garbage system we currently have. Hopefully, we change to Federal-Parliamentary with no FDI Restrictions soon. Anyway, I haven't tried rooting yet cause I haven't I still have no experience with it. This will be my first if ever.
Should I follw this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a70/how-to/galaxy-a70-firmware-list-variants-t3957239
Or do you have other recommended threads I should follow?
Btw, if ever I successfully rooted my device with a custom firmware, could I still unroot it and return to an official firmware without the annoying 'Smart Communications Inc.' popping up ever again?

It's been 9 years since I last did anything like this and resources seem a bit scattered so I would like a push in the right direction to get my phone where I want.
My phone is on LE2127_11_f.27 and want to unlock the bootloader, install twrp, and flash Lineage OS but I'm running into an issue with bootloader unlocking.
The device is carrier unlocked and I have a token file provided from oneplus but it doesnt seem to be working.
OEM unlocking is on but I get this error when trying to unlock it.

Im guessing the file they sent me is wrong because I had to communicate with customer support as my serial number was 7 digits long as opposed to 8 digits.
With this in mind, Ive also seen posts saying I don't need to have a token to unlock.
Should I use magisk to unlock it instead? Are there advantages/disadvantages to it? (it being a dependency, adding a safety net, etc.)
Finally, what should I do in what order? I can figure out the details of execution but I want to make sure everything will go smoothly.

How old is the phone? You should not have been able to get an unlock token with only 7 digits in a serial number. Been there and done that. Again how old is the phone?
Also did you buy the phone from T-Mobile, and is TMO your cell carrier? I can get you where you need to be, but need the information.
I can link you to a TMO to GLO MSM Tool, then you can unlock bootloader without a token, then install lineageOS, install TWRP and magisk.

I will give you the link for the MSM Tool to convert you from TMO to GLO Thursday because until then I will be on the road. It will convert your TMO to GLO so you can unlock the bootloader. Patience!
If you don't want root, you don't have to root to install LineageOS.
I will have it for you Wednesday!
In the meantime, disable driver signing on PC, reboot PC, download the latest OnePlus and Qualcomm USB drivers and install them and then reboot PC. Then you will be ready to convert the phone!

Thank you.
My power button is not working. Is there any command to exit from edl mode?
yes there is. but edl itself has a timeout, so it won't accept commands
