| Hi,
Recently i bought an NEC 535 to use with t-mobile. The person i bought
it from claimed it was unlocked, but when i put my sim card in all i
got was "error reading SIM Remove and Reinsert Battery". I assumed the
that the person had not unlocked the cell phone as claimed, so i bought
a usb cable for it, downloaded NecTalk, and tried to unlock it - the
unlocking kept giving me errors, so i assumed the phone was not
unlockable and sent it back to the person i bought it from screaming.
I was given a refund and i bought another unlocked 535m another
unlocked 535m from a different person. The same exact thing happened
with this phone so i thought maybe it was my SIM card and had t-mobile
send me another one - i got the new one and registered it, same error.
Around the same time though, my mother switched from At&t to t-mobile
and when she started the account she got a free cell phone. Out of
curiosity i too her SIM card and put it in the 535M, and surprisingly
it worked. Next i put my SIM card in her phone and it worked fine.
Is there sometime i'm missing here?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Dan
