Guest rexmedorum Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 I have my g300 unlocked following guide here. it refuses to connect to network abroad. It says that my sim card is not allowed to. In a different phone it works though. Also it does not happen everywhere. In Switserland and the Netherlands I could connect. In Sweden it took 2 days but then it worked. In france I can't connect at all any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mugnebot Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Perhaps your IMEI got corrupted when you tried to unlock it. Edited February 25, 2013 by mugnebot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rexmedorum Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 perhaps that may be it. The last step when unlocking failed. I.e. my emei is 0. this is fine for my uk network though. When I try to write the imei it just fails, the other step with that tool works though?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dalyer Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Is this thread any use for restoring your IMEI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rexmedorum Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I guess I could give that a go. I do actually have a backup, but if I put the backup back I also get the simlock back so that's useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's the case if you have used an unlock code to unlock the phone for use on any network. Certainly I did that with my Vodafone (Ireland) G300 and never messed with the IMEI and it remains unlocked since I am on another network these days...

I of followed the guide on this forum rather than bought an unlock code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rexmedorum Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 GREAT the restoring your IMEI thread worked for me. I tried the same before but missed out step 14. I guess it's important :) http://www.modaco.com/topic/355974-how-to-get-your-imei-back-without-5irom-folder/page__hl__restore%20imei#entry1991922 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
