Unlocked but no data

Hi there,

Firstly thank you for developing this. I will definitely be making a donation after a second attempt my desire was unlocked but I am not getting any data.

The phone was originally locked to Orange UK and my sim is on T-Mobile.

Any ideas please.
[Desire General] mortenmhp:
This has probably nothing to do with this utility. This just unlocks your phone, and if it's unlocked, everything should be fine.

Do you still use the original rom? If so, Orange probably only provided the setup(APN) for their own network. If you go to t-mobile's help page or something, you should be able to find their APN settings, then you can enter those to your phone, and the 3g should work fine.
[Desire General] sieempi:
I don't understand exactly what you mean by "not getting any data". I believe you can initiate calls and send sms, but can't register to GPRS, EGDE, 3G etc (data network).

The problem is that some sim-locked phones have carrier specific settings which aren't wiped when you unlock the phone; they might be more or less compatible with the other carrier you're registering with. They're rom-independent and they're written in some other partitions on the phone that you can't usually access. The best thing is to flash the latest WWE RUU (it will rewrite those partitions with default settings). Check this. Maybe that helps. Also post the output of fastboot oem readconfig & fastboot oem readsku, please.

Another user had problems with his sim. Try changing it / wipe clean it's contacts.. Or check out your provider's setting for your data plan.

There are just too many things to consider in this situation.
[Desire General] maximus1965:
only a few questions:

My phone is PVT4 erasezize 40000

Currently locked to A1 Mobilkom Austria, its not rooted and not s-off.

The Current Rom is the stockrom (branded A1), my CID is VODAP120.

.) When I unlock the device with this tool, can i use official WWE RUU´s without goldcard ??

.) Changes this tool the CID of my phone to a official free htc CID ?

.) Should i have my sim card in the phone during unlock ?

.) After flashing an official WWE RUU, do i get official OTA updates in the future, and can i install them, without goldcard ?

thank you
[Desire General] sieempi:
This tool only resets sim-lock information, it doesn't change the CID.

I'd rather go for S-OFF and a custom rom (or a rooted wwe-ruu). You can easily apply updates afterwards.
[Desire General] Ultr@levure:
Worked for me. No more lock.

BUT BIG PROBLEM : no more DATA too !

I triend several roms and radio roms and there is still no DATA.

My phone only works on 2G and Wifi now.

my APN are OK. And everything is OK. And i'm in a well covered 3G zone. My other phones are working great in 3G+.

Seems like the this Unlock Utility doesn't works fine on Orange Branded Phones.
[Desire General] sieempi:
I believe you can't get a lock on 3G on the unlocked network. Try running:

fastboot oem readconfig

fastboot oem readsku

and post the results.

After that, run fastboot oem eraseconfig and see if anything changes. Read post #131
[Desire General] Shiftone:
Go into your network settings. Disable mobile data then reenable it. I had the same issue as you after unlocking and this fixed it.
[Desire General] Ultr@levure:
Already tried it hundred times.

Nothing changes.
[Desire General] Ultr@levure:
My Phone is running now with the last RUU. Nothnig Changes. No Data.

When the 3G logo appears on the phone i loose the Network and i must reboot in GSM only to have a network.

I Already tried 3 working Simcards. Nothing changes.

I'dont understand what you're talking about when you say :

Try running:

fastboot oem readconfig

fastboot oem readsku

and post the results.

After that, run fastboot oem eraseconfig and see if anything changes.

Could you explain me how to do this ?
[Desire General] Shiftone:
Install the android sdk

Run it and let it update everything

Connect phone powered in fastboot (volume down and power)

In the tools directory of the sdk is fastboot

open cmd prompt and cd to fastboot directory

try the command the OP suggested

(if fastboot complains about missing dlls - they are in platform-tools, just copy paste over)
[Desire General] Ultr@levure:
OK i'll try it now.

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

A bit of help would be greatly appreciated.

I have run both version .94 and .95. Initially I was getting an error message in the process which was 13a. I have now made sure to run the ADB (?) exe first and this removes any reference to the error. The utility finishes with the text ".. seemed to go flawlessly" but when I try to insert my new sim it shows "Network Locked".

The GiffGaff SIM is a smaller chip to my old T-Mobile SIM. Is this relevant?

Hi all,

Wondering if you can help please?

I've run the applications on my HTC desire (previously on Vodafone) as described. All the drivers installed correctly and the DOS programs ran properly with no errors.

However, on bootup of the phone, it now reports that their is no "No SIM card in phone (emergency calls only)

I've tried this only with the sim that it is working in a HTC Wildfire S on the three network.

I've ordered an orange PAYG sim to test.

If you can assist, I'd be very greatful.

I have tried both HTC_Desire_Unlock_v0.9.5.rar and 0. 9.4.

Both had problems with ADB but were resolved after installing adb and went through the process flawlessly and the message displayed was positive but the phone was not unlocked.

I have done both from hboot and from normal mode.

Please help as frustration is setting in and my new S3 is coming soon and I need this to be unlocked and the S3,, oh dear more problems :/

Then i tried linux version with Oracle VM and it sad that the connection could not be established.

Somebody knows what I did wrong? :confused:
[Desire General] d@m3:
Had the same problem but don't worry U should be able to unlock it without problems.

Enter HBOOT mode (power off then hold down "Volume down" and power btn. to power on) then connect your phone and start the windows version.

That's what I did, hope it works for you.
[Desire General] heraSK:
and make sure you have installed all drivers correctly. there's a post here somewhere on how to do it. someone said that the bad driver installation is the main cause for the tool not working, if I'm not mistaken. good luck!

Works!

Thanks so much. This (version 0.9.5) worked perfectly on my Orange-supplied Desire running Cyanogenmod 7, via Windows 7. I've verified that I can now use an O2 SIM that didn't work before.

The key hassle for me was not realising at first that I didn't have the Android 1.0 HBOOT driver (see earlier in this thread for the GiffGaff link to the driver). Having previously used the ADK and rooted and S-OFF'd the phone I'd kinda assumed I'd have all the drivers :o Anyway, adding that got me past the never-ending "Waiting for HBOOT!" message that had come up first time I tried.
[Desire General] rayz0r1337:
Oh please come on.

Tell me how to install -.-

I wait since 4 Days for the instruction and nobody tells me ._.

Hi,

I've just found this forum and it's really great.

Thanks for this post, this utility sounds cool.

Would it work with HTC Desire C?
[Desire General] krispy1:
no

this is only for htc 'desire' the original version only gsm

since you are new to the forum i may advise you most hacks and software mods here are very device specific- if you are looking for development with the desire c you must seek desire C specific threads- if you try to flash desire/desire hd/desire s/desire z things on your phone it will probably mess it up.

Hope this is correct; very difficult to read

Trying the free unlock method on my HTC Desire however it get stuck on Hboot; just many many following dots.

I have checked Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging

I wonder if I need some drivers for the Desire on my Win 7 32bit Dell laptop, if so where can I get some.

When connect my Desire to my laptop, before running app, I get the 4 choices and choose "Disk Drive". This does work as can see the SD card in Explorer.

After running app and getting:-

Error 13a: AdbReadEndpointSync returned error 31 (got same error on Vista 32bit desktop machine)

I can, just about font too small, see some commands on my phone. Select simunlock

words say:-

FAT32 init OK

Open MCCMMC file fail

Open CID file fail

Process done, reboot device?

(Vol UP) Yes

answer Yes but reboots to 02.

I note that as long as phone stays connected Device Manager shows "Andriod Devices" I assume that these are the drivers loaded by the app?

This is a compilation from two posts in andriodforums

Note Orange NON mobile sim card i.e just PAYG text/ minutes card installed; when unlocked will try Orange mobile sim card from wife's phone.

Any advice please
[Desire General] Bezzo19:
Ok I will put all the steps here for you

1. Turn fone off

2. Put fone in hboot mode (hold volume down and press power).

3. Connect to PC.

4. If you get driver install wizard, select manually install then 'my HTC'

5. Run the program and press enter if prompted.

6. let the program finish and your fone should reboot.

7. Done.

Follow this steps and you should have no problems... Hope this helps you?
[Desire General] athegn:
Thank you but from the xda site:-

"Please note! By using the windows version of the app, you ar not required to boot your phone into HBOOT, it will take care of it by itself. "

So do I still do your step 2?
[Desire General] chaplinb:
So after unlocking with this, will wiping data and flashing a different Rom lose the unlock or is it permanent?

Cheers for this.
[Desire General] Bezzo19:
I did and it worked for me first time, but you could try shipping it if you want :)
[Desire General] Bezzo19:
This is permanent, or at least should be, I don't see why flashing a new ROM would change this... I hope all this helps :)

Please hit thanks if any info I have provided helped you.

Any hboot but 1.x

[Desire General] athegn:

Note in case this makes a difference. The sim card in the Desire is just a PAYG Orange minutes and text. My O2 sim is in my Galaxy S2 with my O2 mobile number.
[Desire General] Bezzo19:
Have you manually assigned the driver?

This is why I say to put fone into hboot then connect to PC, so that you get the driver wizard and you can click manually assign there.

I did not have any luck with 0.94 so please don't ask me about it.

Please note this is not my tool, I'm am just helping from things I leant unlocking my old desire. :)
[Desire General] athegn:
Yes I appreciate that this is not your tool. I am hoping someone else will chime in.

I think my phone has 0.93

When I try booting from hboot the "driver assignment" does not happen i.e. there is no where I can manually assign drivers?

Under Control Panel> Other Devices > Android 1.0 there are no drivers??
[Desire General] Bezzo19:
Ok what I did was to put my fone into hboot mode, then connect to PC. I then had windows wizard pop up trying to install the driver. This is where I selected manually assign.

Try rebooting your PC if you do not get the wizard.

Also I take it you have installed the HTC PC software?
[Desire General] gavlaa:
Hi guys,

Really pleased this unlock tool worked on my Orange branded HTC Desire- unlocking from Orange to putting an Optus SIM in from Australia.

Just one thing though- any time someone calls, the number comes up as 'unknown'- could this be from the tool, or is it more likely to something I need to change at Optus?

Thanks
[Desire General] Bezzo19:
I very much doubt that has anything to do with this tool.

Sounds more likely that it is either your settings or your ROM, could possibly be your service provider too.

Hope you get it sorted :)
