After flashing to the last CM 10.1 got this "SIM UNLOCK PIN" plus no mobile network.

I read that this could be fix flashing its RADIO for a new one. Now...

I was reading some posts for good radios and I saw that NELP3 is a good one, but I dunno that it can be used with my i-777 model. If there is actually a better radio, plz feel free to recommend it I will be willing to use it with CM 9.1 (stable).

If you guys can help me out with this issue I'll appreciate it.

All this happened after flashing to the 10.1 nightly of CM

They are pulled from official releases, and leaks of I777 firmware. From oldest to newest, the official releases are
UCKH7
UCKK6
UCLE5
UCLL6
UCMD8

Different phones and different geographic areas respond differently, so you just have to experiment by flashing them in succession, and trying out for a few days. You might start with UCMD8 as it is the latest, and many have reported very good results with it.

I gave it a try and I flashed after rebooting some pop up like "ANDROID upgrading applications" 0 - 84 till 84 - 84

After all that same UNLOCK SIM PIN appear, I'll keep trying them as u said from the lastest to the none lastest :p

Well dunno if its good or bad but I tried every single one of the MODEMS on that post and no one seems to be working on my phone, what else should I try now? dunno if its relevant but I was using it with the CM 9.1 (stable)

Is it asking for you to enter the pin?. If so you can log into your att account and get the pin for your phone from there. I was nosing around on mine yesterday and saw that option. But it did say if your sim is locked (10 failed tries) you will have to purchase a new sim card from them.

It ask but it doesn't ask for the real sim card I dunno, I flashed the 10.1 CM and it bugged my phone. I tried the PIN and the one that is use to recover after u fail 3 times and the same nothing happen.

I entered security optioin but its not tilt the option to lock the phone, etc, etc.

Give it the try to this MODEMS and nothing happen. damn CM! dot

Is there no Galaxsim unlocked that I could use to unlock my SGS2 cuz every single version, the one from the app store or another one need to make a "contribution" to unlock his phone....

I need a FREE one so I can unlock it without any problem

I believe as others your phone is not netwok locked ita actually asking for your sim unlock pin ie the pin proctecting unauthorised use of yourbaim card. Obviously no pin entered, no access to network.
