Guest rvs80 Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 I purchased a new ZTE blade. And immediately upgraded the rom to FLB r11 without unlocking the network sim lock. Now when i try to unlock the sim lock, i put in a non-orange sim, but it did not come up with the screen where we enter the sim unlock pin. Does that mean my phone is unlocked when i upgraded the ROM?
Guest Pelemane Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 Nope. That ROM just ignores simlock. If you install ROM that doesn't ignore simlock (e.g. stock Orange ROM) it will be simlocked until you unlock it. My phone was sold unlocked but when I installed ROM that checked simlock it said that it was locked. That freaked me out.
Guest hugobosslives Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 only some (tho most of the popular ones) roms have the simlock function set to false. therefore to newbies, its recomended to unlock it first (for free) and then hit custom roms.
