Hi All,
I apologize in advance if that has been posted and responded to, but my searches have been unfruitful. My boss has the Motorola Droid 3, stock rom, NOT rooted on the Verizon network (in NYC). He will be traveling abroad to the mid-east and contacted VZW Global Services and they provided him with the SIM Unlock code.
I then proceeded to insert my AT&T SIM card into his phone and booted it up - in anticipation of the SIM Unlock Code screen so that when he gets to his destination country, all he'll have to do is insert the SIM card which he will purchase there.
Unfortunately, no such screen appeared. I was able to access the phone's other functions and was even able to go into Settings>Wireless Settings and switched the device to GSM/UMTS only (from the default 'Global' setting). Still, nothing occurred. I then forced it to search for a network (even though automatically connect was checked) and believe it or not, midway through its search, the phone completely rebooted on its own. I thought that maybe NOW, when the phone finishes loading, that it will ask me for the SIM Unlock Code. Well, it didn't. The phone just booted up normally and indicated that there was no service (bars with the red circle and slash through it).
We called Global Services back and they claimed that we will not see a SIM Unlock code for any US-Domestic carrier SIM cards (sounds fishy to me) and the SIM Unlock Code screen will appear ONLY when a Foreign/Non-US Carrier SIM Card is placed in the phone. My suspicion is that the Global Services rep doesn't know the difference b/t his a** and his elbow and was just saying anything that seemed plausible to get me off the phone. It would be VERY BAD if my boss travels to his destination and operates on the assumption that this will work once he inserts a foreign SIM card and for it not to work at all.
Any thoughts/insights into this would be VERY much appreciated and if this topic was already discussed on another thread, I would very much appreciate the link to that thread.
I have seen similar topics on other phone model threads, but none of the instructions in each of those respective threads had a solution that seemed applicable to this specific problem.
Many MANY thanks in advance!

You should most certainly see an unlock screen with a US based sim card. I used an old deactivated T-Mobile Sim card to get my unlock code prompt. try going to the phone dialer and enter *#*#4636#*#* - give it a sec and a menu will come up. In the menu scroll down a bit and you'll see a network selection bar. Tap the bar and select GSM Auto (PRL). You should immediately get a popup or perhapse after you back out of it. If not, scan for networks again. If it still gives you problems - PM me and we'll get it figured out.
network SIM unlock screen missing for T-Mobile US
Folks,
I am experiencing a similar issue as the original poster. No matter what I do, I can not get the Droid global (stock rom, v2.3.3) to attach to the T-Mobile network. If I follow the instructions"
*#*#4636#*#* - give it a sec and a menu will come up. In the menu scroll down a bit and you'll see a network selection bar. Tap the bar and select GSM Auto (PRL) ".
I see the screen momentarily flash the t-mobile network, then switch back to indicating that the network type is CMDA-1xrtt. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
BTW this sim works fine in a BB Bold 9000. Also it is just a simple voice/messaging sim - no data plan.
Never mind - after more research, seems I have a phone with the US carriers locked out. - off to see if I can update it

You need to use a foreign Sim card, not an American one because Verizon disabled access to all other American gsm networks

I was to access the screen you mentioned however I was unable to get it to ask for my unlock code, any ideas?
I had the same issue. The unlock code was already put in. Though this may be, there is more you need to do to have it working on US carriers like AT&T.
The guide is here

I c, U have to use Non-US SIM CARD. otherwise U have to unlock the US radio first. but if U having trouble to pop the SIM Network Unlock Code screen, just put non-US SIM and set the mobile network from global to gsm/umts. these also apply to those whose troubled with subsidy lock, so they can input the code.
Worked for me with tmobile or att sim card in the phone. You have to backup rename the build.prop file in the system(Rename the old build.prop to build.bak) put the new build.prob file in the system, restart the phone and wa-la, it will ask you for an unlock code. Enter it give it 15 or so sec reboot the phone, select GSM/UMTS and wait 30sec to 2mins you will receive a signal.
I just purchased a Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900A), full-price, off-contract, from AT&T Wireless. I used an existing GoPhone (prepaid) account/phone number to activate the phone. The phone works (voice calls) with the AT&T SIM. However, I want to use the phone/device on aioWireless. I have a microSIM for aio. I have purchased an unlock code and followed the unlock instructions. I received a "Successful unlock" message after entering the 8 digit network code. However, I cannot make phone calls (or use the data plan) when the aioWireless SIM is installed. When dialing a number with the aio SIM, I get a recorded message that the service has been deactivated, and to contact AT&T.
When I try to verify whether the phone has truly been unlocked by typing *#SIMLOCK# nothing happens. If I then push the CALL button, I then get the message: Connection problem or invalid MMI code.
Any clues what is going on?

I have no idea.
I would look up the APN settings for AIO and input those (Settings>Connections>More networks>Mobile networks>Access Point Names)
You could always just call AIO customer service or walk into a store and they should be able to help you out.

I thought APN is just for data and has nothing to do with his inability to place calls! especially that he is getting" service deactivated"
I would check the AIO account if its working first.

APN is indeed simply meant for DATA and MMS
Your phone is functional with TEXT message and CALL's WITHOUT even a single APN setting set up
The main problem here is compatibility. OR the SIM card
SOMETIMES you have to leave the sim card inside your phone for at least 5- 10 minutes
At one time it took me 20 minutes for a sim card to be recognized, then I got 4G
It depends on the network.
But if all fails, just call your new network and try to get a new sim card
As long as your phone is fully compatible, and you know it, there are ways around it.
Hope this helped!:good:

I bought a US Cellular Moto X off of Ebay. I unlocked the Moto X successfully since I receive the message each time I turn on my phone but no unlock menu popped open.
I have the correct T-Mobile SIM card, I am able to search the internet but I can't make calls, receive calls, and the same for texts. When I call, I receive the welcome to verizon wireless message and the texts do not go through.
Please help.

If you go to the main settings menu, then under Wireless & Networks, select More... and in the new screen that pops up, select Mobile networks, then Access Point Names, you'll have to find the APN settings for your carrier and add them manually if they don't show up when your SIM is inserted.

There is a way to access the APN list using a hidden programming menu. I don't know if the dialer shortcut will work on the version you have, but to try it, dial ##7764726 if it works and asks for a password, use 000000
One of the options should be APN controls. Hopefully T-Mobile US will be one of the APNs.
Is it possible that there might be a problem with your SIM card since some features work and others dont?

I'll try that.
It's US Cellular phone but I use T-Mobile SIM card, it was a brand new sim card. When I dailed, I kept getting "Welcome to Verizon Wireless"
Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes in a few hours.
According to US Cellular's webs site, their device supports CDMA/EVDO, since you are trying to use it on T-Mobile, you'll need to manually switch the phone to GSM/UMTS mode, or Global Mode. (App drawer -> Settings icon -> (under Wireless & Networks) More... -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode).
While in there under Mobile Networks, you'll also need to tap on Access Point Names... If the APN settings came down automaticlly from T-Mobile you need to select it. If no entry for T-Mobile exists, you'll need to find the settings and create one. (Google found them when I looked) NOTE: with Android JB 4.2.2 on my Verizon X (XT1060, also supports CDMA/EVDO in addition to LTE and GSM), the APN settings came down automatically. After upgrading to KitKat 4.4, I had to manually enter them.
When I setup my Verizon X for use with my T-Mobile SIM, I couldn't get MMS working for some reason, even though I was using the same APN settings as my T-Mobile Galaxy S3.
Also, keep in mind that T-Mobile uses 1700/2100 AWS for their HSPA+. As far as I know, only the T-Mobile version and GSM Developer edition supports this band, so you might not get "4G HSPA/HSPA+" with your X even after setting it up correctly. If you are lucky, and are in one of the areas where T-Mobile has completed re-farming their spectrum, you will get H+.
Good luck.

Based on that screen shot, your preferred network mode is still set to LTE/CDMA... that is wrong for T-Mobile. (SEE POST #12 of this thread!!) You want it to be GSM/UMTS or GLOBAL!! And you want to have the boxes checked for Data Enabled and Data Roaming.
You do not have options for Global Data Roaming Access and Access Point Names which I have on my Verizon Moto X, so that makes me question a few things....
In the first post you say you successfully unlocked your phone.. do you mean SIM Unlocked, or BootLoader Unlocked??
Also in the first post you mention seeing a message each time you reboot.. What exactly does the message say?
I ask because if you unlocked the boot loader, your phone could still be SIM locked and therefore not recognizing the T-Mobile SIM properly, and not giving you the Global options and APN options needed for GSM mode.

It is BootLoader Unlocked not SIM unlocked.

Yes, if not SIM unlocked, you're stuck. You need to get it SIM UNLOCKED.
Take a look at this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2422854 apparently some are using cellunlocker [.net] to get their X SIM unlocked, although they don't have US Cellular listed when I picked MOTO X from their list, so you might have to pick "Unknown" or "not listed" for the carrier.

Do I need my SIMcard to be active? My current phone doesn't take the nano sim card, I had to reactivate my old sim card.
I have an unlocked AT&T xt1097 but it won't register my T-Mobile Sim card. It registered for about 3 minutes, got a welcome to T-Mobile text and that was that. My phone number shows up in settings, but it shows I have zero service. I've reset, and rebooted several times to no avail. My sim works in a nexus 6 so it's not the sim. Imei os clean. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be or how I could get it to work with my T-Mobile sim?
When you say unlocked, unlocked Sim or unlocked boot loader?
sim unlock. As far as I know there's no boot loader unlock.
Could it be that the imei isn't in T-Mobile's data base since it's an at&t moto x?
Edit: went and put the imei in to tmobiles imei checker and it couldn't figure out what device it was and if it was okay to use on their network. Now I just need to verify with T-Mobile and see if they can register the imei.

Change the APN settings
I have had a problem like this with my unlocked phone and AT&T, but when they set it up in the AT&T store they fiddled with the APN settings. I had to do the same to get my wife's unlocked Lumia 635 to work on the T-Mobile network. Try the values used in the link attached and see if it works.

I was able to connect to tmobile network some times, able to make calls. No data connection at all. I played with APN settings and everything else. any help..?
I have an unlocked ATT x1097 and it works just fine with tmobile.
You just have to MAKE A NEW APN SETTING.
When you put a tmobile sim in it, it will automatically create a couple of T-MOBILE apn settings. Just leave that as is and create a NEW APN SETTING with same info you can find from Google. Select that as your data apn. And reboot the device for the best result. It should fixed the problem.
For those of you whose sim does not register into tmobile network; i think it could be one of the following reasons:
1. Original ATT modem does not work well with tmobile frequency in your area
2. The device is locked (stolen, non-payment, etc)
3. The device is broken
4. Your SIM card is damaged
As long as you are at the home screen with tmobile sim, your phone is GSM UNLOCKED, and it iwill never lock again.

Just wanted to say thank you. My T-Mobile SIM wouldn't connect and I even went to the T-Mobile SIM store to get a new SIM Card but it didn't help. As you stated, adding a new APN setting was the only thing that worked.
For those of you who want to unlock your Moto X, I purchased a code on eBay for about $8 and received it within 6 hours. I would post the link but I'm afraid it might be considered spam.
What type of data signal are you getting? LTE?

Nice. Where did you get your unlock code?
I don't know about OP but I have always used swiftunlocks and have had great luck. Got my N6 from ATT unlocked through them without issues as well.
http://www.swiftunlocks.com/unlock/motorola-at-t-tmobile-worldwide
I noticed that sometimes phone picks up apn without issues and sometimes you have to restart so I just restart every time I make a change to be on the safe side.
Just in case anyone else has the same issue as OP, you should use the
Code:
epc.tmobile.com
APN, NOT the
Code:
fast.tmobile.com
one.
The fast.tmobile.com one would not let me register on the network. epc one did immediately.

Hey, I know this post is kind of old but I am currently having the same problem with my moto X 2014 going from At&t to T-Mobile, were you able to get it fixed and if you did, what did you do?
Any luck? I've just come accross the same issue. Got phone unlocked, and bought a new sim and activated. I'll get like 3-4 minutes of service randomly here and there, but about 99% of the time no service. Tried multiple variations of APN settings that I've found online. No luck
Fixed all my seriously annoying connection problems by flashing the 4.4.4 modem.

Someone help!! ...plz
Anyone ?? T-Mobile reps are mostly useless, and keep telling me that my device may have been ' re-locked ' to AT&T after a hard reset !! I know that's not the case because I've thrown in a Vodafone sim and it recognized it ! The sim unlock was purchased from SwiftUnlocks and the phone took it in one try w/o any issues!
Now, I can't even get voice to work... All I see is ' No Service ' and when manually trying to register with T-Mobile, it says ' unable to connect to the T-Mobile network. Please try later '
Someone please help out!!
I got the unlock code off ebay. When I put a verizon postpaid sim in I just get a webpage for phone locked, when I dial #786074* I just get a voice prompt saying device is not active. How do I unlock?
Ok, found it! from settings: wireless & networks:
well, I can't find it again. I think it goes away once I unlock it. But there was an option in there to change network carriers and that brought me to the unlock screen.
