Unlocked NEC E288, not accepting T-mobile - GSM-Forum

bbmad · 01-29-2005, 19:04

I have unlocked the NEC E228 using NEC Craazy software, I have tested the phone using Orange, Virgin and O2. When I insert T-Mobile using my own sim card, which is fairly old, it works. When I insert the customers T-Mobile, the NEC logo comes on and doesn’t go any further (I have tested the customers sim card using another phone & Sim is OK).

I know that the phone is unlocked as my T-Mobile sim card works but why doesn’t the customers T-Mobile???

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

i had the same problem, its down to the T-Mobile cards that are not compatible with the handsets

i have a old style T-mobile card that works. so its down to the new design
