Help ....
I've got a HTC S620 locked to BTMobile. Currently running a 3VOLUTION Series rom - which is way better than the usual stuff that BT give us.
Anyway - BT recently gave me an 8 digit sim unlock code, and told me to put another sim card in and enter the code when the on-screen prompt appears ... but with the above ROM it doesn't appear
Any other way of entering this unlock code - other than reverting back to the factory rom, and then flashing again ?
Cheers
Mark
I did mine yesterday "as in sim unlock" reverted back to BT ROM to do it know Kavana etc allows just seems the new 6.5's the unlock mobile screen wasn't showing up.

Hello,
Is there any software around to SIM and CID unlock this amazing phone?
thanks,
Joao Oliveira!!
Hi Joao
I'm expecting my i780 to arrive end of this week and am also looking for a SIM unlock- unfortunately it doesn't seem like there is one around - even finding a website where you pay to unlock is difficult!
However, someone on Modaco unlocked his Orange i780 using a pay website:
http://www.modaco.com/content-page/264705/I780-Locked-GPS/page/40/
Alternatively, perhaps flashing the ROM will work? Must admit that I'm not going to try this method yet as posted on the thread....
How much is your network charging for the unlock?

Hello,
Thank for you response.
Any news on unlocking this device? have you tried flashing a new rom? did it work? to be honest i am very scared of flashing a new rom on a locked device, i dont want to brick it.
My network charges me 130euros for unlocking the device. Not too much since i paid very little for it but still ...
Thanks.
Joao Oliveira.
Hi - yes in the end I paid £19 to get it sim unlocked on the day that I got the phone as at the time there was only a test pda rom I think.
Anyway, my sim worked fine once I unlocked the phone but I couldn't get the GPS to work. I think the italian splitted radio rom was available after that so I tried flashing that - it didn't help the GPS, and in the end I had to flash the pda as well (the MSHC3 rom).
Now everything is working thanks to the guys here.
EUR130 is a lot of money to pay to get your phone unlocked....

Hello,
Is there any way to input an unlock code without changing the SIM card?
I have an S620 and I've purchased the unlock code from T-mobile I've not yet got my new Vodafone SIM card but I want to unlock it so its ready when my SIM arrives.
Is there any sequence that I can put in to unlock it?
I know that on the Nokia you can the # and * key thing then input the unlock code and you don't need to change the SIM to do this.
If anyone knows please contact me ASAP
Thank you
You must know someone who has a different carrier just use there sim
Unlock sequence
I don't know anyone with on a different network.
Its the security software thats messing things up for me
Unlocking S620
I have a HTC S620 that is locked to T-mobile network.
I have 3rd party security software on the phone so when I insert my Vodafone SIM an switch it on the screens flicks between the security software and the unlock code text box.
Is there any way to unlock the device with the T-mobile SIM still in the phone?
I have recently unlocked a Nokia device by inputting the +pw etc and the unlock code.
Is there a sequence I can follow like this for my S620?
Thank you

Unlocking S620 text box
I've had a look at that thread but it seems to be some guy that can give you the unlock code.
I actually need to bring the text box up without putting in a new SIM.
I've already got the code I need to put in.
There must be some way of making the text box appear without putting in a new SIM. It must be part of the firmware and should have some way of making the program run.
I've also contacted HTC tech support to see if they can help. But if anyone knows how to do this please let me know asap.
If HTC come back with an answer I shall post it on here.
Thank you
Guys I'm over in Europe and attempting to use a vodaphone SIM, I'm running NRG's ROM and radio 4.49.25.17.
T-Mobile had kindly provided the SIM unlock code for my TP2 prior to my trip but when I put in the Vodaphone SIM it doesn't prompt me for an unlock code?
Do I need to manually enter it somewhere?
I think its supposed to prompt you with a screen asking for the code, make sure the Vodafone sim is properly inserted and if that doesn't work you can try looking up the phones engineering mode.
Is the device booting into Windows Mobile & usable with the other SIM card installed? Where did you buy it? Sounds like it may be unlocked already. Anytime I put the wrong SIM in a locked device, on boot up I would get a message for the unlock code & device was unusable, would not progress past this screen. You had to either enter the unlock code or reset & remove the SIM card.
First, check if your device is unlocked by going to Start>Settings>System>Device Info and on one of the tabs, it should say unlocked somewhere. Or, you can check it by downloading ATCommander onto your device and entering [email protected]?40 into ATCommander. It should return 0 if you're unlocked. If it returns 1, you're SIM locked.
Now, if you are still locked, try flashing the Stock Tmobile USA ROM, and insert the Vodafone SIM then. Hopefully, a dialog should come up with an area to enter you unlock code. On the Kaiser, you supposedly had to be running the stock AT&T ROM in order to get the dialog unlock the device with an unlock code. Hopefully that will work. If not, TMobile tech support could probably answer this. Hope that helps
I have a Tmobile Dash running a 3V0 6.5 rom. I received an unlock code but not a UNL file. I am trying to switch from Tmobile to ATT And only the ATT sim is active. I have no idea how to input the unlock code. Please help my phone does not prompt for it

In order to see input field for unlock code, you need to flash back to your original ROM or WM6 ROM. ROM 3VO will not show input field for unlock code once the new sim is inserted. This is a draw back of WM6.5. When you have unlock your phone in WM6 you can reflash back to WM6.5 if desire.
why dont you put in a tmobile unlock code.. usually a subsidy code thing will pop up.. then you can put the code in there

Hi,
I have bought a HTC Desire 2 days ago which is locked on 3 network (Sweden). I purchased an unlock code but i never got the sim lock screen to enter it. I tried entering all kinds of SIM cards and they all work except the phone will only connect to 3 network , so it's allways on Roaming.
How to enter the unlock code?
FYI: When i received the desire it came with android 2.2, i have rooted it and also installed cyanogen firmware.
