How to unlock AT&T Dell Streak and use it on T-Mobile or any other network

How to unlock AT&T Dell Streak and use it on T-Mobile

Good news, T-Mobile customers. The AT&T Dell Streak can now be unlocked in a matter of seconds with the Rebel Sim II. I had tried many, many times to unlock the Streak with this card in the past, but what made it work this time is the firmware.

Version 1.2 of the firmware was released two weeks ago, and I can confirm that it is able to unlock the AT&T-locked Streak for use with T-Mobile (voice and EDGE). The Rebel Sim II does not void your warranty because it doesn’t modify any software orpermanently unlock the device; once you remove the card, the Streak is back to its AT&T-only state. Put it back in with your T-Mobile SIM, and it’s unlocked for T-Mobile again. Take it out and your Streak is locked to AT&T.

Want to use your official AT&T Streak with T-Mobile (and other carriers)? Here’s how to do it.

1. Buy the Rebel Sim II or You can buy it with the SIM cutter too if you want,

2. Punch a hole at the top of your T-Mobile SIM card. It doesn’t affect the card’s usability (you’re just punching through useless plastic) and the hole doesn’t have to be precise.

All you need to do is make sure the black square on the Rebel Sim II is exposed when the cards are stacked. That little chip is the source of the magic.

Here’s a more technical explanation:

“The Rebel Simcard has an IC on the FPCB and this intercepts some of the communication between the network simcard and phone and enables the use of other network simcard’s in a otherwise locked phone.”

3. Slide the stacked cards into the Streak’s standard SIM slot. They won’t stay together very well on their own, so you can use a small piece of tape on the edge if you can’t get them in correctly. There’s very little room for imperfection when inserting the cards (i.e., they really need to be lined up correctly for this to work), so be patient and keep trying.

4. Once the two cards are inserted, put the Streak’s battery back in, replace the back cover, and turn it on. If the cards are in correctly, you’ll see T-Mobile in the status bar as soon as the Streak boots up and prepares the SD card. If you don’t see it, take the cards out and try again.

And that’s it.

I’ve got Android 2.1 on my official AT&T Streak, and it works with no problems on T-Mobile.

After I removed the Rebel Sim II and T-Mobile SIM card, I put my AT&T card back in and it was like nothing had happened.

I’m back on AT&T and fully locked to the carrier until the next time my Rebel Sim II wants to take a ride in the Dell Streak.

If you already have a Rebel Sim II card with the old firmware, you can download the new firmware and load it onto the card with a compact programmer.

Rebel Lite & Pro Dual Sim Adapter Designs for iPhone 4 with & without the need to cut networks Simcards to micro sim format World First

No More swapping Sim Cards over using the supplied iPhone opener tool with the iPhone 4 impossible sim gates style from apple every time.

When ever i get my hands on my apple phones i always loose the tool used to open the Sim gate tray mechanism.

Then I’m forced to look through my paper clips collection to find one of the right size and top worry about damaging it altogether.

I find that the paper-clips that come in different colours like this are the best ones as once you take of the out coating of the plastic the size is about right to get the iPhone Sim out to be able to simply swap over to your other network sim card.

Well no more of the complicated fiddling around and keeping your other network Sim Cards in your wallets or purses & pockets in jeans,trousers or jackets. and no more worrying if your spouse ended up washing your other network sim card in the washing machine as you forgot to take it out.

With Rebel Dual Sim STK Menu which cane be found in the iphone 4 Your able to Switch usingthe Press of a few click to the other Simcard.   SIM1   or   SIM2.

The Dual Cards do NOT support DUAL STANDBY Mode but you can switch between them and be connected to one network simcard at any one time only.

Lets say you have a unlocked iPhone 4 and posses more than one network simcard and wish to swap the network simcards around from diffrent providers be it any reason you like.

Currently by phyically switching network simcards manually can get complicated and become time cumsuming and can cause damage to the iphone 4 sim gate and internal click in mechanism.

You may want to be able to swap simcard many times a day as and when you need to use your other network simcard.

On the other hand if your iPhone 4 is locked to one network then you can only use 2 network Simcards in the locked iPhone 4 that come from the same network provider or a MVNO that shares your locked iphone 4 providers as explained below.

What are the Rebel iPhone 4 Dual sim adapters used for ?

To save you time and money and hassle of manually changing network Simcards around by physically changing them.

Let me give you this scenario about using MVNO’s in the UK you could easily use Tesco or GiffJaff in your locked iphone 4 thats locked on only 02 with the Rebel Dual Sim Adapters

If your phone is locked to say one network only and for example its UK O2. you can still use and save money as other virtual mobile network operators often have much cheaper offering that share the same network code.

This allows the network Simcards from MVNO’s sims to work and will also work on your locked iPhone 4′s.

At the moment Giff Gaff is like Tesco mobile who are a MVNO’s that run on the 02 network and is offering a very good deal along with Tesco mobile and their tripling credit offer.

They like other MVNO’s buy bulk airtime deals and resell on under their own brand. These network simcards all share in common the the same network code 23410 which tells the phone to login to to the UK O2 Network.

This network code is called the MCC Mobile county code which in this case is 234 for all uk network simcards & the MNC Mobile Network code which in this case is 10 for all the network Simcards that run on the uk O2 network.

You too can can check from the list here for other MVNO in your home country as we gave you an example for the UK and then be able have access to great deals by simply switching over to the other network simcard in a few click thats already inside your rebel dual sim card adapter.

Unlocked iphone 4 users and freedom of choice to use any network simcard.

How To Install the Rebel Lite Dual sim Adapter

Take out the Network Simcard from your Iphone 4 with opener tool supplied by Apple.

Step 1

Enter a pre cut micro sim as shown in the step 1 picture and bend the FPCB as shown

Place your Normal Mini size Simcard in the Second slot as shown

Now you are ready to insert in to Iphone 4

Do Not rush Step 4 and slide the rebel dual sim adapter in to the Iphone 4 sim gate till you hear the click and then the sim tray is locked in to place.

After full insertion in to the Iphone 4 sim tray this is how it will look and don’t worry if stick out by a few mm and does not fully insert

The first time you power on your will be connected to the Sim Slot 1 where the micro sim is connected.

When you would like to switch to the other full size network sim connected in sim tray 2 then this is how to do that.

Look for the Rebel STK Menu in the iPhone 4 under Settings /Phone / Sim Applications.

When you click on the Switch Number you have these options

And will not see a * next to any of the options if it’s the first time you are using it.

Now to go to SIM2 we would simply select that option by clicking on it and this would switch to the other network sim and when you want to come back to SIM1 come back to the menu option and select that one.

You can also set a timing option so you can automatically alternate between network simcards connected by setting a time in minutes.

You may want to be able to swap simcards many times a day as and when you need to use your other network Simcard.

On the other hand if your Iphone 4 is locked to one network then you can only use 2 network Simcards in the locked Iphone 4 that come from the same network provider or a MVNO that shares your locked Iphone 4 providers as explained below.

Rebel Sim II V1.2 New Firmware now Released for Android Windows Mobile & Palm WebOs Smart Phones

As you know the Rebel simcard Team are always working very hard to make the impossible possible. After Many long sleepless nights and over 200 man hours of Development and testing has gone in to this new firmware for the v1.2 Rebel sim II.

This new firmware V1.2 for Rebel Sim II is created for phones that have the following OS systems.

Windows Mobile Android  Web OS

As you know the number of smart phones that appear in the marketplace with these OS’s is growing every day.

Most of the Smart phones cannot be unlocked by normal cable/software based methods. A hand full can be unlocked by purchasing unlock codes or credits to server based unlock solutions but often costing in the region of £25 per phone.

Normally all phones sold by network operators are locked on to the one network the phone is sold on to.
In the UK Dell streak is sold only by O2
In the USA Dell Streak is sold only by AT&T

Dell Has signed Exclusivity deals with the operators for the countries it supplies in.

The Current scenario is like this

You can buy a dell streak direct fro USA an it will still come locked on to AT&T

You can buy a dell streak direct fro UK an it will still come locked on to 02.

So you can say their is No Sim Free Version of the Dell Streak Available and not even direct from Dell as they are bound by contracts they have made for exclusivity.

As Far as being able to obtain a unlock code to enter in the phone to unlock will be a near impossibility as the phones codes are held by the network operators who locked then.

Not Even Dell can supply a unlock code for the locked phones as they would themselves need to contact the network operator who locked the phone in the first place eg AT&T in USA or O2 in the UK.

However all is not Lost and their is only one company in the World who can provide a Stable Solution to allow use of restricted network simcard on the Dell Streak. Solutions Point Limited based in the UK creates a Product Called the Rebel simcard II is the only unlock solution for the Dell Streak for Now.

Its a small chip on a wafer thin pcb that sits under your network card in your phone and does the Magic and allows use any other network simcard and best of all without the use of cables or software or codes and all this without loss of warranty.
