Rebel Sim - Streak 5 General

Hey guys,
I've bought a locked UK Streak off ebay, thinking I'd be able to use it with my German o2 sim...
so I'm stuck with the locked Streak and the rebel sim I bought just doesn't work. I've put it into another phone, rebooted, just all the stuff I could find on the internet but nothing seems to help. It just keeps on showing "no service" and after removing the sim I can't even download from the market.
The downloads don't start and theres nothing shown in te notifications bar.
They're only shown in the download section of the market but nothing happens.
Do you have an idea what to do?
Thanks!

No ideas or thoughts? I really dont know what to do with my streak... what do with you think how long itll take until theres a software unlock?

"Not registered on network" "No Service"

Ok got this phone but it wont ring or recive calls ! .
After putting in my SIM card, entering my PIN code it still says no service. When you try and make a call it says "Not registered on network".
It was on T Mobile which I have had it unlocked via eBay. I got past the Google registration page by entering APN settings for my SIM card (O2).
Now I can user the browser and market etc but no calls.
I have done everything in THIS thread and think I have flashed it with
JFv1.43 RC9. (When I say think it seemed to flash but I cant see any difference so not sure if it worked).
Does anyone know how I can get the phone to work?
Thanks for your time
i have been in this same situation for about 3 weeks and after spending countless hours on phone and at store with tmobile 3 replacement phone 5 sim cards and a new number they close my account and reopened it this was just tonight so i am testing it out so far i have lost servie twice within 3 hours restarted my phone both times and regained service so im not sure if it is completely fixd just yet
Its really annoying such a simple thing. When I try to manually select teh operator in settings it says "Your SIM dosnt allow connections to this network".
I tried an orange SIM card and for some reason it puts the phone in airoplane mode and wont come out :s
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this ?
Thanks
same boat
man I'm telling you that's been happening to me. except I upgrade to ION and then reverted back to haykuro's 6.0r1. everythig that;s happened to this guy has been affecting me
No service
I also have a problem with my G1. Bought it from my local polish netwerk (Era) and the phone works OK however, from time to time it looses the connection to network and it needs a reset in order to login to network again. Don't remember if it happened before they released the software which supported polish language. So what do you recon is it a hardware problem or did those useless local IT guys screwed sth up while translating android??
hi i have he same problem stuck in airoplane mode and no service has anyone found a fix yet????
I´m yet another user with the same problem. For a few hours yesterday I suddenly had service, but it stopped working in the evening again.
Any solution?
A similar problem. Tell me what to do. Thank you.

I just bought a fido sim card and I get the msg: "cannot register on this network. choose another network, or disconnect your data connection and try again" when i try to manually connect to the network. I have using this phone with at least two sim cards back in my outcry and i bought it independently from my previous network from an eshop in Ireland..
Any thoughts? Could be the ROM and radio installed?

Problem with unlocking Rogers x10a

Hi all, I'm new here and before I tell you the problem, I appreciate all the info on these forums and the work that is put into everything. Thank you in advance.
So, I have a locked Rogers branded X10a, and I was unable to get the SIM unlock pin. So, I got the network unlock code, but whatever sim I put in, the screen always reads "no sim card" in the phone and then the activating screen loads and continues to load forever. Under settings (without a sim in the phone), there is the option for sim unlock pin, but that is the code that I am unable to get after numerous tries on different sites.
How can I get to the screen to enter the sim network unlock code if the phone in not recognizing any sim cards that I put in? Btw, I'm using AT&T. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the length of this post and thank you.
I had similar issue my w580i. I had it after putting the unlocking code it stop recoganising SIM, havn't solution till now
Did you try using a different Rogers sim?
I don't have a rogers SIM, only AT&T. I bought the phone locked and just figured I would be able to get an unlock code like all the other phones I've had before, but no dice.
Check your pm

I just tried to put in my deactivated Rogers SIM card from long time ago, and I am also getting "No SIM Card" ... Not sure if your problem has anything to do with Rogers Wireless used to be "Rogers AT&T" before
If you have any friends has SIM card from different carriers, try to put those in and see if you experience "No SIM Card" issue.
Regards
Mabye it does.. I'll try and find someone with a Tmobile sim I guess.. thanks for the advice though..
Please keep me updated on this, I'm trying to unlock my X10, I got the code from cellunlock.net through the manufacturer and keeps telling me after I enter the code that it was unsuccessful.
I still can't unlock my phone either but I'm not sure about the SIM unlock code you're talking about. Are you talking about the IMEI? or the actual code that's used to unlock the phone? I've tried Mobileincanada.com but they couldn't unlock my phone and gave me a refund and I'm still waiting for this dealer on ebay. Good luck dude, keep us posted

Got an unlock code, www.cellunlock.net
Make sure to pick the Sony Ericsson Manufacturer code it's 34.99 but well worth it. It works now.
the manufacturer unlock code is the one I got, but I just don't get the option to put it in because the phone doesn't recognize the AT&T sims that I've put into it...

How old are the sim cards? If they are old, get new ones. Also, try re-installing the firmware through seus and then putting in your sim card. I never had that issue, I just had a hard time finding the code.
I had a real old one from cingular, but then I just went to AT&T and got a brand new one, but same issue. I'll try updating and see if that helps, but will the phone update without a valid sim inserted?

I had that same problem. Call AT&T or go to your AT&T account online and get the PUK number. Also, did you call AT&T and told them you have a new phone? They need your phone's new IMEI number.

I'm sorry, what is the PUK number for and also, why does AT&T need my IMEI number? I mean, the phone is still locked to rogers right now regardless, right?
Lots of noob questions, sorry.
Also, i already spoke to AT&T, Rogers and Sony Ericsson about the issue, but none of them are any help of course. The PUK did nothing for me either. I feel like I am running out of options here...
welcome to the club
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717414&highlight=phone+stuck
so far no solution
So, I tried repairing through PC Companion and then I also ran the update and go the newest firmware installed now, but still same problem. Phone does not recognize the AT&T when inserted and therefore, no option to enter the network unlock code. Any others have any luck/make any progress??
wow... i guess i'm in the club as well. I just got back from the Rogers store and they wouldn't let me replace the phone anymore. I've bought the manufacturer's code which is suppose to work 100% but it didn't...so desperate
Sorry to hear that...
You said the code you got didn't work? In what way? did you try to get a refund by providing video evidence?
On a side note, does anyone know how to access a keypad on the x10 that enables you to imput the left arrow, *, * left arrow method to input the code? I realize I need to have a valid rogers sim inserted in order for this to work, but I do not see how to input the arrow keys. Any suggestions? As I've said, I'm new to android and to a device with no physical keyboard, so maybe this is very simple...
thanks and good luck to others in the same spot as me right now..

[Q] not registering on network??

I just bought an Orange branded SGS, which should have been unlocked. So I was surprised when it kept asking for PIN code which I thought would be 0000 but after several tries this did not work.
At first it was not seeing the sim card so I downloaded the SGS unlock from android market. This gave the unlock code and unfreezing code. it then saw the SIM card or at least the no SIM card logo disappeared.
the problem is it is not registering on the network. I went to an unlocker shop and they even tried an Orange Sim card this still did not work.
Still no Joy
Any thoughts and suggestions would be gratefully received
Have you tried calling orange to see if the imei had been black listed? Could be a lost/stolen phone you have unfortunately purchased

S8 G950F wont get signal - not blacklisted IMEI: NG

hi all
i have a uk model s8 on the o2 network which was originally locked to o2.
so i took it the local market to get it unlocked which the market trader did and it accepted another uk sim
but wont connect to any network now. states emergency calls only, even with my original o2 sim.
i cant even search for any networks. when you try to search for networks by choosing the phone option, nothing happens, just states not available at this time. same thing when you try to choose manual or automatic search.
it accepts any sim now but wont connect to any network.
i thought it may have been barred even though i bought it 2nd hand and had it over 8 months so i checked imei on the net and it comes up clean. so not barred.
he couldnt also understand why you cannot search network, why this option cannot be selected.
so i come on this forum for some help, and a member did help me and got it working by flashing something to it via remote team viewer but after a few hours it stopped catching a signal because i downloaded an app onto it to hide root which worked but caused the phone to loose the signal again. and then when i contacted the member, he refused to do it again.
i pleaded with him to flash again or do whatever he did but after days of waiting without a phone he was not available to help. so please can anyone help and tell me what he did so i can fix my phone.
i know from users on here, you can have root hiding apps running on an s8 and still be able to perfom the fix to the problem on my phone.
i know it has something to do with imei not being registered on phone and it showing a NG next to imei.
any help or guidance would be appreciated
regards,
Margaret acey

don't O2 unlock phones for you free of charge? That is how it used to be when I was last in UK.
I really wouldn't trust anyone to remotely download/fix phone, they could do all sorts, hopefully you got a good guy but the fact they won't do it again seems suss to me.
Have you done this,
https://www.technobezz.com/fix-samsung-galaxymobile-network-available/
I suggest you flash stock o2 rom and take it to O2 to unlock phone, this will" clean" your phone so if the helpull member installed anything he shouldn't have it'll be wiped. Also check white o2 if your data etc has being used by someone else ie cloned your phone. (but there may be some other issue as the trader couldn't search for a network)
Thsnks for the response.
Its not locked anymore. As it accepts all sims which it didn't anymore.
This has something to do with the imei not been registered.
The imei status is NG when it should be OK.
