    after 3 weeks of being unlocked now phone won't reconize (att) sims card
    says to insert sims card...
    tried sims card in another phone and it works in it.
    can an unlocked phone revert back to being locked?
    i can play with my mobile setting till i get a signal and i get a verizon message that the number is not working...

    1. Remove and install SIM card
    2. Battery pull
    3. Reboot and you'll be good to go.

    were you using a business card to help the click issue?

    I did and the way I had it in there it pushed on the metal and my sim card wouldn't read. So I pulled out the business card and cut a little piece off and put it between the metal and the back of the sim card and it is snug in there now and it worked.

    I hope this fixes your problem.

    I found a solution and thought that it would be useful to post my solution up here since we never got any response.
    What's going on is the sim card is loose in the Storm, in fact the AT&T 3G sim card is slightly thinner than a T-Mobile sim card.
    Anyway, just slide the sim card in with a piece of paper and the your Storm should be up and running now...

    No it will remain locked. I had the same problem after getting a new sim card. The new one was slightly thinner than the old so I used two sheets of paper to apply pressure and make the card fit snugly.
