Noob here, searched for a long time but couldn't find a solution for my problem.
This is a Cingular phone, and I want to use it with a T-Mobile SIM card. I inserted the T-Mobile card but the start-up screen shows a Cingular menu.
Here is what happened until now:
1. I removed the original (Cingular) SIM card as soon as I got the phone. Haven't activated the original card.
2. Powered on the phone without a SIM card, followed the procedure to generate an unlock code, entered it and got the "restrictions off" screen.
3. Powered off the phone, inserted T-Mobile SIM card, powered on and got the Cingular start-up screen.
I tested the T-Mobile SIM card in the original phone and it works fine.
How do I get the 6061 to recognize the T-Mobile SIM card?
Thanks. I know that silly noobie questions aren't very popular but I really have tried to find the answer before posting, and just got stuck.
