Unlocking by Flashing new Rom? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi, hello there!
I live in Brazil and as you might already know, there is a HTC phone here named P4351.
(I supposed it is also known as Atlas, anyway, picture here:

)
Anyway, I have been researching the internet for something like 2 months already every day, at least 1 hour a day, trying to (sim) unlock this phone. As far as I know, this is a model that has been released only here in Brazil, but it is Similar to Herald (a.k.a Wing [I guess ]). People around here charge around U$ 90 to unlock it, and believe me, this IS expensive around here.
So, I tried many sites and also some unlocking services from internacional companies, but none of them worked. Finally, I decided to flash my phone with a Herald Rom (since they are interchangeable (so have I read around)) and check if it is possible to unlock it. Would that be possible? If so, how? HardSPL or SoftSPL?
Thanks you all in advance.

Welcome to the forum
Please READ here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/
Locate your device and I´m sure you´ll find the way to unlock it
Good luck,

Ok, I look all over it and did not find a way to unlock it. Can someone point me the path to do it or answer my question?

Actually it is there, it says sim unlock is still under development.

Hard to unlock
I am into the same situation.
I have the same device and live in Brazil too.
Here people charge expensive to unlock this device.
I tried lot of methods but nothing seems to work for Herald.
If the ROM update would unlock it, I would have courage to do!

[Q] No fastboot mode, Flashtool gives Bad TA Config... help

So I own a prototype AT&T play, the bootloader was unlocked but it was still sim lock to AT&T. I used wotan server to attempt to unlock sim but it was a no go (oddly)
Later I read a post where someone used omnious. So i bought some credits and used omnious and it failed repeatedly, and the error it was giving was "Bad TA Config".
Now I can no longer get into fastboot, everything I do results in a green light instead of blue. Any help?
Side note, I do not have a TA backup for this device.. is this phone permanently screwed?
Also, now when I attempt to use wotan servers unlock tool it says " No IMEI found"...
I searched and found this, don't know if this helps
Your fastboot is locked. Branded phones have fastboot locked.
You will need to pay to unlock fastboot. Find someone who have setool box.

Well you're going to have to ask Alejandrissimo on this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17330852&postcount=2
He reply quicker if you ask him on Gtalk.

I should probably clarify, I had fastboot access prior to this issue. Bootloader was unlocked and I had fastboot access, only the sim was still locked. However as a result of attempting to unlock the sim (as it was a prototype AT&T did not have a unlock code for the sim) my IMEI number for this phone is gone, and will not power on and will not enter fastboot mode.
I PMd alejandrissimo but have not had a reply.
Alejandrismmo has a site where you can unlock bootloader (you pay first). The real question was the prototype working on at&t service before. Your xperia play might be a barebones phone (nonserviceable).
unlock-bootloader.com/

I received photos on request from the seller, very reputable on eBay. The images were time stamped for 5 minutes after I emailed him and showed it powering on, powering off, and several photos of homescreens and apps, all showing AT&T in the top right.
Will the unlock-bootloader.com fix my phone bad TA file? Currently it shows up as no IMEI # in several softwares.. and again will not power on or access fastboot.. despite having this before..
Edit: I as on the site you provided earlier and fixing a bad TA is listed as "contact us"....... which I have both through the site and through PM and a gtalk chat invite
Got a hold of Alejandrissimo, this guy is freaking awesome. Fixed my phone......in minutes... this guy was a life saver... Thank you Alejandrissimo...

What are my opinions with a non-unlockable Z1C?

Hey guys,
I own a "locked" Z1 Compact and I'm just wondering what are my options? the default ROMs for this phone are utter cowpat.
Has anyone come up with a way to force the phone to become unlocked or a trick method of installing another ROM? by unlocked I mean to allow the installation of any ROMs not anything to do with messing with the cellular capabilities.
Thanks for all the past development for my past devices
Thread title fail and I can't fix it lol
Options not opinions..

Completely wrong section, but do you mean that your phones status is "bootloader unlock allowed: no"? Or have you just not unlocked it?

Yeah, as far as software goes there isn't anything you can do about that. Your only option is to speak to whoever sold you the phone and ask for an unlockable one if they have them, or just buy an unlockable one from somewhere else.
Thank you for the snappy response, guess I'll sell this phone and see if I can get my hands on a unlockable one. or hopefully find someone who'd be willing to trade

Need Help Bypassing FRP on Pixel C Tablet with Android 8, Talkback 6.0.0, Outdated YT

I acquired this tablet for relatively cheap in auction from a remarketer, and feel like I know why now. None of the methods I can find seem to work to removing the FRP on it.
I did manage to cause it to crash a couple times, once corrupting the data letting me factory reset it again in recovery through the method described in this XDA post, however it was still locked at this point. I did write down the build info when this happened. 8.0.0/OPR1.170623.027/4292972
I did manage to successfully perform the trick described in that post and pull down notification bar, but when I go to more settings, all it gives me is this

}
. Doesn't really allow me to navigate anywhere more useful. Image
I've also managed to try the TalkBack video method, with the video in Morse Code, as there is no video in the "Get Started with Voice Access". This would probably work in the past, except that currently Youtube needs an update on this device, and when I try it brings me back to the FRP Login.
Youtube Update-FRP Login
At this point I'm at a loss of what to do. It's a challenge. Is there any hardware bypass that exists, such as shorting some pins on a firmware chip? Any Software I can run on my computer to aid in this task? Nothing I could find for this device, but maybe I haven't looked hard enough. Perhaps a method to trick Youtube into running without the update?
following
I don't know if there is nor do I personally own a Pixel C but I do have experience with getting FRP gone on more than one device I've owned in the past. These methods you see are extremely sensitive and even a few seconds time pause or anything except exactly how whoever is doing them is, can end up unsuccessful. Also many of the methods get patched with updates... Just be careful because there are many fake advertisments out there about this that say pay $____ and we will do it ..And they don't. All I can say is search search search and try it all and if you already have done that do it again. I had a Motorola phone some years ago and I bricked it. Hard brick... I messed around with the blankflash file trying to get it to work for weeks!!! I must have attempted to get it to work 500 times at least!!! I kept trying and one day it worked. Don't give up and when you follow those methods to remove FRP on YouTube make sure you are following EXACTLY how they are doing it.
Here's a method I just came across: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/pixel-c-8-1-1-frp-bypass.3879498/

Dialer Codes Not Working

Hello everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (SM-G988U) from Verizon Wireless. I am not from the US, I got the phone from a guy who bought in the US.
I am currently in Romania using Vodafone SIM card (Idk if this is relevant but thought I should give as much info as possible).
The thing is, no dialer code works, *#06# for IMEI code, *#0*#, *#*#88#*#* and all the other ones. It either says invalid code or something like that or "UNKNOWN APPLICATION".
I am running original unrooted firmware Android 11 One UI 3.0 (G988USQU1CTL4).
Is there anything I can do to solve this? And is there a way to get rid of the Verizon stuff without rooting? (like changing CSC or something I don't know I'm not all that knowledgeable regarding this stuff, I just read the stuff posted on the forums)

Not sure if it will work. But try downloading the Google Phone Dialer and see if they work in that app.
I get the same errors with the Google Phone app too.
Codes won't work if the BL is unlocked or rooted.
Happened on my old S9
At least read the whole post before replying , I am running completely original unrooted software. Didn't touch a thing on it.
Didn't mean to make it sound passive aggressive, just frustrated with the whole thing.

perhaps the previous owner rooted the phone before.. try to enter download mode to see if it was rooted before.

Question ROM flashing in TMO LE2127

Hello guys, I just got this phone upgrading from my OP5T and I used to flash roms and kernels with TWRP, I see things have changed and I would not like to destroy my phone. I have always liked

trying new roms and messing with my phone, would really like to be able to flash Nameless or PE. I have seen that if you get the TMobile variant things get a little tricky with firmwares and phone versions. I got my SIM unlocked and I already have my unlock file to unlock my bootloader. Havent done that because I dont really know if my ROM flash would work.
Do I need to unlock my bootloader?
Can I already flash my ROM files directly from adb or do I need to convert my phone to EU with TSM?
I have seen that people mess with modules that I need to backup, is this only needeed to convert to EU version or would I need this for Nameless
?
Do I flash firmwares via fastboot/adb or do they come with local updates? Which I do not have because of TMO.
I have already asked a couple questions in the forum but I need to clarify myself with ROM flashing and prerequerisites with my 2127 version. I would really appreciate some help about this, Ive never tried getting help from forums and looks like this phone community is pretty active.
Go to the Nameless thread and follow the instructions to the letter and you will be fine!

Is it really that easy? I do not have to do anything else before because of TMO?

No, just make sure you follow every step in sequence. Read the instructions a couple times to make sure you fully understand everything. Like are you suppose to be on Android 11 or 12 as an example.
