XDA II can only use SUN sim, no signal on Globe or Smart Sim

anyone know what is the problem?
is it blocked by Globe and Smart?
when SUN sim is used, no problem at all, everything works fine
when Globe or Smart sim is inserted then, it didn't said anything but only no signal on the network, even tried to manually set the network but still doesn't work.
someone is selling me her unit which she bought from GreenHills,
anyone know what happen to the XDA if it is blocked by the networks?
I just want to make sure it is still fixable, or I might just ended up with a PDA only instead of a XDA
any help or info will be grealy appreciated
thanks a lot in advance

Re: XDA II can only use SUN sim, no signal on Globe or Smart
Maybe you've got a SUN's simlocked phone...
Try unlock your phone...search here the unlocker or download here
buzzdev!
BTW if it is IMEI lock phone then you can't use the SUN sim...

thanks, but it doesn't return any simcard error, simply no signal for the Globe and Smart sim, I have try to search the networks, it saw all three networks
and I don't recall Sun release any XDA,
anyone know how the XDA acts if it is locked to other network and you inserted wrong sim?
thanks

it is weird that SUN didnt blocked your SIM ..
but i think you got a bad XDA and the IMEI was blocked by NTC .. changing the IMEI will fix this but it is illegal to change the IMEI in some countries including the philippines .. ..

but can we change it?...hehehe...just joking....
halo doc toe...

Im having the same problem... pls help...
Im having the same problem (im representing a friend)...
At first i was not able to use my globe... and then the smart...
now, only sun is working...
i tried unlocking the phone, it is unlocked... (did not solved the problem) (try upgrading it... still have the same problem...)
please, if anyone out there who knows how to fix it, i'll highly appreciate it...

are ur xdas brand new? maybe it was reported stolen by the owner who purchased it from globe or smart. what i know is that when you buy the unit from globe smart sun they will register ur imei and when u report it missing they will block it to prevent others from using it. my brother experienced it 2 yrs ago when he bought a nokia 9210i in greenhills, week later it was blocked by globe and smart, then some technicians in greenhills offered us to change the imei so we can still use the phone, then after changing it, it works in both networks. it caused us about 3k.

[Q] Tmobile G2 with Google - Unable to connect to network

I have bought a new Tmobile G2 with Google from ebay and got it unlocked . However, this phone does is not able to connect to any Service in India..including Vodafone Mumbai, which is on 900 mhz. Here are the HTC Phone details: Model: Tmobile G2 with Google; Network and Country : TMobile USA; When I click on Search for Networks, I get an error message: "Error while searching for networks". When I click on Select automatically, it gives error "Unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later".
According to HTC support, this phone should work in India also as it is Quad band. Contacted T-Mobile support too but they were not of much help and asked me to get it to theie service centre.
Would appreciate any help to resolve this issue. Thanks in advance.

Not an expert but what if you put a apn setup for the data on it and try search again?

Did you unlock using Gfree (root)?
There was an issue with when you unlocked your G2 using an unlock code you got no service, just go root it and it will also unlock your phone (network) and your issue will be resolved.
I was in the same boat as you except when the was no fix for a couple of weeks! Hope this helps.

Oh yea that could be it I rooted that way and have my phone unlocked but I have T-Mobile in the USA i did it that way to kill to birds with one stone lol. try that and do what the other poster did and let up know if that works for you ill look around to see if there was anyone sled with this problem.

Yeah, it's a known issue that unlock codes are hit-or-miss with this phone. When they work, it's as easy as any other phone. When they don't work, the phone stops connecting to any network (including the original one it was on). Most of the unlock companies didn't acknowledge this when the phone first came out either (not sure if that has changed now). I had one dealer adamantly tell me his codes were all working until I had him actually try it himself and it messed up his phone...
As stated earlier though, using gfree to get subsidy unlock will fix the issue. Just follow the guide in the Wiki.

I got the unlock code from T-Mobile and did not get any error message while unlocking the phone.

Hi
none off us got an error when unlocking using a T-Mobile ore second source unlock code.
The phones says successfule, reboots but some of us ended up with a corrupted sim-lock data in the partition 7.
That was the reason why we went for radio S-OFF - to be able to remove the corrupted sim-lock data.
The result of this work is gfree. See the XDA-wiki for the G2/DZ/vision on how to use gfree. This will repair your phone.
Have fun - Guhl

[Q] Unlock codes

I've just got the s4 on EE but need it unlocking, I bought a code for 14.99 it didn't work so I bought another from a different place exactly same code lol so I've tried but all I get is unsuccessful I've tried the freeze code that they supplied too but for some reason it won't unlock.
Is there another method to unlock it?

I have exactly the same problem. I bought code (got four codes: NETWORK, PROVIDER, SUBPROVIDER, DEFREEZE) and it didn't work. In email there was couple of methods but I can't go to Network Lock screen after I typing this in dialer *7465625*638*# and don't have idea how to get to MCC/MNC to put code for the service provider.
If someone know at least how to solve this I would be more than happy.
Phone is locked in 3 Sweden.
[EDIT] ok, i managed to unlock - i tried Provider code and then Defreeze code instead of typing Network code. don't know if its matter but before i did it i was trying with simcard from 3 to use some of Dialer codes - but any of them didn't work so i switched to locked simcard and with Provider + Defreeze codes combination.
