If the update somehow just rewrote the NV item, then it should work, I just did a friends razr M and it was on the latest update 4.4.2, running on T-mobile now.
[RAZR HD General] ShermCoupe:
awesome, thanks for the reply. Do you think i need to do a reset before i go through the process again since it was previously unlocked?
[RAZR HD General] ajrmd:
Unlocked, but really?

Ran through the unlock sequence and popped in a Telestial world SIM. Before the unlock, the phone wouldn't boot up saying that the SIM wasn't recognized. Now after the unlock, it prompted the entry of the PIN number and seemed to boot up fine though it couldn't find a network even though I changed the settings to GSM. In my old phone it seemed to pick up T-mobile's network, now it doesn't. What am I missing?
[RAZR HD General] eh33:
I hope htis isnt a stupid question but does this allow the phone to be used on Straight taks CDMA network? Thats what I'm trying for. Thx
[RAZR HD General] Jaysp656:
to my knowledge it only unlocks the GSM for US. Doesn't have anything to do with CDMA. I could be wrong though. I'm on Straight Talk with a AT&T sim card (GSM)

Has anyone tried this on the new kitkat update yet?
[RAZR HD General] ShermCoupe:
I was just able to get my wifes working with the kitkat update. The only problem im having now is that the battery is dying FAST

Anyone have tips to help slow battery consumption? went from 100% charge to 29% in about 7 hours with hardly any use. Before i unlocked the phone it would maybe go down 10% in that time.
[RAZR HD General] bweN diorD:
it is not the unlock killing your battery, it is KK.

use the utility in the top of my guide here with the wipe option (warning, back up your data first), then check your battery usage.

if that doesnt help, skip down to the bottom of the guide, and put JB back on.

hope that helps
[RAZR HD General] ShermCoupe:
I will def give it a shot. Only weird thing is that it had the KK update and the batt wasnt drying like this until i unlocked it (again). Maybe something in KK is using the service to report/check for updates/cook virtual meth. Its seriously ridiculous how fast its burning through a charge.
[RAZR HD General] bweN diorD:
you dont need to unlock "again", once is forever.

it likely just needs to be cleaned out, happens a lot after major updates.
[RAZR HD General] ShermCoupe:
well the sector or whatever 8322 reset from 00 back to 01 after the KK update and I had to repeat the process to accept my tmobile sim again.
[RAZR HD General] bweN diorD:
my bad, you are correct. i was completely thinking about the wrong thing. sorry
[RAZR HD General] Rob X3:
just confirming, this method still works on 4.4 KK? also, could anyone post the link to remove the unknown SIM apk?
[RAZR HD General] ajrmd:
I'll tell you every time I go back the 8322 field reverts to 01. I tried rebooting through the program. I tried writing twice in succession and waiting 5 minutes before a reboot. It's as though the Verizon SIM rewrites over the NV field. Again, what am I missing?
[RAZR HD General] ShermCoupe:
Do not restart your phone or unplug it for the 5 minutes. I waited like 30 mins to be safe after having the same issue and it worked.

Hi,

My Droid M 4.1.2 was unlocked successully with this method.

Now it was accidentally upgraded to 4.2.2 and became locked to CDMA. I downloaded Motorola Driver 6.3 and connected the phone in Factory with PC. However, it seems Win7 64 bit can't recognize the modem ports of the phone in Device Manager(please see screenshot as below). I also tried Motorola Driver 6.2 and got the same issue.

Any inputs?

Thank you

XT926

Hi,

I was just wondering why the "DONT CHANGE 8323!!!" part ?

Also, would you know how to unlock for overseas carriers.

Thanks

Dave
[RAZR HD General] kabaldan:
The NV item 8322 can be changed directly on phone, by a simple run of a small utility as root.

The utility has been tested and already confirmed to work perfectly on Photon Q (xt897).

It has been also tested on xt925, where it runs as expected (NV 8322 is already set to 0 there, so the utility reports that no change is needed).

We need confirmation from xt907/xt926 users in order to make it part of moto_msm8960 and moto_msm8960_jbbl builds as we'd like to make the US GSM unlock as easy as possible for CM11 users.

Please test it and report, thanks.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54773773&postcount=7
[RAZR HD General] dragonhart6505:
the 8323 is something else and i dont know what it does, but dont touch it.

following either this guide or the guide using RadioComm will unlock the Sim slot for use on any carrier, inside or outside of the U.S. the phone is, however, a World Phone and does not require unlocking for use outside the U.S

183.46.15.xt926.verizon.en.us

Just a couple of questions about this thread, any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Has anyone successfully done this with the latest verizon build 183.46.15.xt926.verizon.en.us?

If I do this, will I still be able to use the phone on Verizon's network without reverting?
[RAZR HD General] dragonhart6505:
1: people have been reporting that they are not getting signal, but i believe they are not waiting the necessary time (5 minutes) before resetting the phone. this is just a guess. people watching my video are notorious for not reading the description and the comments. also, Verizon is no longer allowed to lock down their phones to prevent service on GSM networks, so it not receiving service makes no sense.

2: yes, with no penalty to your account. you can switch back and forth between sim cards if you like
[RAZR HD General] bittermonkey:
suck it verizon

Verified that this works on 183.46.15.xt926.verizon.en.us. I'm not sure if the "GSM/UMTS" option has always been there under Mobile Networks > Preferred Network Type prior to this and I don't have a non Verizon sim at the moment, but I'm glad my phone still works under Verizon's LTE/CDMA network.

after writing NV items over 15 times, it still has not changed from 01 to 00. what do i do??
[RAZR HD General] Zeljko1234:
Wait 15 minutes before reboot :D
[RAZR HD General] solidus636:
even after i wait it still doesn't work..the NV items never get changed from 01 to 00. i don't get it. do i still wait even if they didn't get changed?
[RAZR HD General] cellzealot:
Just an FYI. I just finished doing the NV edits on my xt907 on the latest .15 build.

I used RadioComm as i always do and not this method but it worked for me the first time as usual, without any waiting to reboot nor any other special steps.

I am only stating this to make the point that these methods should work to write the NV Item properly without playing games or jumping through any hoops.

I am using a WIN 7 64 bit laptop with the most recent drivers from the Motorola Mobile Manager utility.

:cool:

YMMV.

[RAZR HD General] ebradsha:
Thank you for this guide. It worked perfectly for me with an XT926 with the KitKat 4.4.2 upgrade.

However, I have encountered one issue and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this:

1. I followed the guide to unlock my Verzion Droid Razr Maxx HD (XT926) for other US carriers.

2. I popped in a T-Mobile SIM card and received excellent connectivity on HSDPA as expected.

3. If I reboot the phone, I get a pop-up message "Sim Card is from unknown source" that I can dismiss by clicking OK.

3. Unfortunately, after approximately 60 minutes the phone stops recognizing my T-Mobile SIM card. I can remove/re-insert the SIM card as many times as I like, but it will not recognize the SIM card. Only a reboot of the phone fixes the problem. However, I can plug in my Verizon SIM and it is recognized straight away.

Could there be some sort of Verizon software blocking my SIM card after a certain amount of time?

Any advice would be much appreciated.
[RAZR HD General] Zeljko1234:
There is app you should freeze to stop getting "Sim Card is from unknown source". I don't remember the name anymore but you should figured out easily. I think that you have to freeze it with Titanium backup.

Device always roaming

I unlocked my razr m with this method, but I have some problems. The phone is always roaming even though it seems to be properly connected to my carrier (lycamobile). Also, the "This sim card is from an unknown source" message still shows up on startup. Service costs twice as much while roaming, so I would greatly appreciate help with this.
[RAZR HD General] Zeljko1234:
If you're on stock and have root, disable vzw app responsible for that message. Don't remember exact name anymore but you're gonna figure out.
[RAZR HD General] Epowerj:
If I remove the app responsible for the message, will the phone stop roaming? Also, I don't have root.

Without root you can not do it anyway but will work. I was using Razr HD with T-mobile card and frozen that app.
[RAZR HD General] brandogg:
I re-flashed 183.46.15 with RSDLite and went through the unlock process again - still does not work (no service). Is it possible to downgrade to the previous firmware with a *locked* bootloader? I'm guessing the answer is no...

Edit - actually it turns out the NV Items changed is not being saved when the phone restarts. If I save my 8322-8323 again after "unlocking" it's still starting with 01.

Edit (again) - it's really weird, actually. If go through the process and write the 00 byte, then save my 8322-8323 again before restarting (as a new file, just to be clear), then it shows 00 correctly, but after exiting and doing mode reset, it gets changed back to 01.

Edit (last time) - I just kept reading/writing with CDMA Workshop, then rebooted into BP Tools Mode again (without mode reset) and now it's finally saved correctly. Full bars on T-Mobile (GO Smart) for my daughter again! Best part - the service is free! Thanks for your initial reply cellzealot, persistence it the key.

NV item 8322 on HTC Desire 510

I am trying to make a Sprint CDMA HTC Desire 510 work on a GSM network. Would any of you guys know the NV item 8322 equivalent on the HTC Desire 510? What is the name of this item? It does not show up in the HTC. Thanks.
[RAZR HD General] moh19814:
Is this method compatible with other devices or not? I have a Sprint HTC Desire 510 and I tried to follow the instruction, but I could not find NV Item 8322. I got “Parameter bad” when I tried to read in the range 8322-8323.

Instead, I read all the NV items from 10 to 8323, and I looked for items started with 01. I found in total 86 NV items started with 01. I attached a text list with the NV_Items numbers and the equivalent meaning of some of them as I found using “RF NV Item Manger”.

Could you please guide me which NV_Item(s) I have to change to unlock GSM Network.
