I've got a 5190 NSB-1 phone, and last night, I was messing around with B-phreaks' Eeprom Tools v4.0.0.1... I hit the "Repair Eeprom" button, then "Set Default SP Locks", and now no SIM cards will work in the phone. It rejects them all, saying "SIM card not accepted". The SIM from the phone works fine - in other phones.

What can I do to fix my phone?

unlocked 5190 won't accept rogers sim- say's SIM card not accepted. It was locked to FIDO and still works with a fido SIM.

WHAT GIVES???

Is my rogers SIM somehow different or is my ohone still locked (even though I unlocked it with nokiafree dct3/4 calculator and got the SIM restriction OFF message)

HELP!! my original phone is DEAD

@baral, just unlock/reflash the phone again

I tried unlocking it again and still no luck-

the only thing I can think of was that I unlocked it originally without the sim installed. I have re-unlocked it with the rogers sim in place and still no dice.

I ordered a date cable for my dct4 8390- I hope it'll work on this dct3 phone too.

Anybody had the same problem??? this is the 2nd 5190 fido that's doing this to me.
