Hi all,
I've got a brand new T-Mobile desire (picked up a few days ago), but i'm having problems getting it unlocked I've tried mobileunlocked.co.uk (with their supernew search) as well as htcsimunlock, but neither could find the code (but have refunded).
Is there any other option? Or is the phone just too new to have the code on a DB yet?
Thanks
Why not ask t-mobile for an unlock, they charge 15£ and can definately get you can unlock code ? though it might take a bit longer
Unfortunately i'm not with t-mobile, I bought the phone off someone who got it on an upgrade
Email me the IMEI no, let me check it for you.
Thanks ferrari, but I've already tried (and got refunded ) HTCCode.com, they couldnt find it
they are suppose to update the code database in the next 2 weeks....
mind if i ask you what is the first 8 digits of your imeI?
Mh, they are really SIMlocked? Can't imagine that...
The unlock codes for HTC Desire locked to T-mobile is available in the database now. You can get the codes from Prounlocking which takes minimum 5 hours to be delivered.
Jesus christ guys, why pay when you can just use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943726

Hi everyone,
I'll have to admit, the way people seem to keep coming up with tweaks and way-outs, you guys are definitely a bunch of geniuses! I am new to this forum, and after going through a few posts, have been inspired enough to go for a Tmo upgrade to the HTC touch Pro2, but I am not sure if I would like to keep using Tmo service, hence asking you all here if you guys know a way how to unlock this phone to be used with other service providers?
Thanks!
Wouldn't flashing a new ROM able to get rid of the lock? Is that possible?
No don't think anyone has figured out how to SIM unlock yet. Atleast if they have I haven't seen a tool be released for it yet. In due time I'm sure there will be though.
usually tmo customer service will give you one unlock code every 90 days, even on just-released phones. but this time, they simply said they don't have it for the tp2. called twice, no go, rude cs rep on top of that. don't know if they flagged me for some reason, or if they are just not giving it out. everybody, call 611 and ask for it, see if anyone succeeds.
Thanks atlaswing,
will try my luck with the Tmo CS, but this can only be for the interim for ~90 days as you said, until one of the gurus here finds out the ultimate divine path to a sweet SIM unlocked TP2 on Tmo!
doing a google search for unlock code tmobile touch pro 2
shows a good number of hits for companies claiming to be able
to unlock it..of course for a fee...
I just spoke with TMo about a sim unlock for my pro2. They said I would received the unlock code and instructions within 7 days...
requested today, advise i will get it via email in 48 hours.
Unfortunately, T-mobile told me I had to be a customer for at least 90 days before I could get the unlock codes from them
I got the phone with a new activation. I was even previously a t-mobile customer many years ago.
search on ebay. it's under 13.00 and I got the code in about 1/2 hour. Works like a charm even on my Telus Pro2
Touch Pro2 Unlock
I have contacted T Mobile for Unlock Code. They replied saying request is placed with manufacturer and I need to wait for 7 days.

Today got mail from T Mobile with UNLOCK CODE. Before spending any $ for unlocking I suggest to give a try contacting T Mobile.
OK soo i jus purchased brand new never used ATT branded tilt2... it's still SIM locked-i need to unlock it so i can use it on tmobile.right now i am using the first generation tilt (also att branded) with tmobile service, it runs great and perfectly. i have tried purchasing to get the unlock code remotely twice within the last 2days but both parties said i either gave them the wrong imei or that they cant find the unlock code.WHY IS THIS??? i really need this phone unlocked!!! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! n/or tell me why is it that the code can't be found???~thanks
try this he is well known here http://www.htc-unlocks.com/
what i usually do is call At&t and tell them that i'm going on a business trip overseas and need it unlocked and then they'll email me the unlock code.
Done this for several devices with them.
Hi all,
I have my new desire for almost a week now. I am trying to unlock it (it's locked to telus). I have tried many website (mobileincanada, cellunlock....) but they still answer me that the didn't receive the codes for ''new'' Desires.
I didnt ask a refund from cellunlock because he told me that if he doesnt have it, no one else will have it...so I'd better wait (1-3 buisness days) ... after 3 buisness days... they still don't have it.
I've spoken to an other admin from htccode dot com ...and they can 'give it a try'...because they have acess to ''all' databases. I'm not into asking a refund from cellunlock and be stucked again with htccode.
Can someone explain me the theory of 'new databases' Vs 'old databases' ?
How do these buisness work? How can they have to htc databases... why HTC give them access?
Hopefully I will find someone here who's in my situation and will try to help out.
Thanks fellas.
PS: I'm form montreal Canada...the cell is locked for telus...and I want to use it with fido (rogers)
I got a unlock code from cellunlock around a month ago, 10 minutes after I paid. Guess you just have to wait.
Finally got it from cellunlock! It took a week...but they delivered. Sometimes...you just have to wait for HTC to update their database.
If highly recommend cellunlock. Trully professional. We exchange ~10 mails... They have an awesome support...and respond very fast.
Will defintetly work with them again.

It seems phones bought 2nd hand or refurbished are not being unlocked. They show up as eligible in the at&t system, but code not found when it comes down to it.
The same thing happened to me. I do not believe that problem is second-hand or refurbished unit I think the devices to which this occurs has not yet 6 months contract. I'm hoping that's it.
I managed to unlock 3 devices one was mine and two other relatives, had no problems. Just needed to unlock one more.
When I went to the last, was not found unlock code.
I'll wait a few days and try again, but I'm upset with this problem.
Another thing I noticed is that the device was not to find the unlock code has a special feature, the box has an inscription that had not in others.
The MPN is written on the box: 9375319 V2.1 81-X
This entry does not appear in other devices I could unlock. Coincidence?
mr
even if its used, i think it can be unlocked..yes i bought it from ebay..but im sure its original, used but refresh...please i need a hlep. i love this lumia!!
Can't unlock phone as well
I've been trying to unlock my nokia luma since october 8th. I opened up three cases with AT&T and only one came back with an unlock code. I tried the unlock code and it's wrong! It's not even 8 digits -_-' So what do I do now? I don't understand what the hell the problem is, I see other people are having no problem unlocking their phones, and mine took nearly a month to get the wrong code...just what the actual ****.
same problem here

Same problem. The unlock code provided by AT&T is 8 digit long but is not working. I always get "Incorrect PIN" when i try to unlock the mobile.
I got my mobile replace through the Insurance company, maybe that could be the case? Think I have to use mobile as paper weight going forard. Sick AT&T

Nopes. Event AT&T customer care is not able to unlock the phone. They simply dont have the technical capability to unlock the phones if the code is not working.
Has anyone found a solution when the code is not found? I have tried sellers on ebay and AT&T, but neither are able to find any unlock code.
I have finally found a seller that provided a code! jose70blue on ebay. You have to use up all the 10 attempts, then when it tells you to use the PUK code, and 32 attempts, the provided code worked like a charm on the first try!
Can somebody confirm this actually works because I have 3 attempts left and don't want to screw my mobile.
Thanks for the update.

Hi guys,
I have an M8 now..I'm happy well almost....had to send it back and whilst it was being fixed I thought I'd get my One X out and use the sim in that. Unfortunately I'd moved from Orange to Vodafone when I upgraded to the M8 so my vodafone SIM didn't want to work in the Orange UK One X.
Easy I thought...I went online and got the unlock code....which didn't work. Luckily the site refunded me he 10 quid and I tried another site...this one cost 15 quid so I thought I'd get a 'better' code Unfortunately, it was the same code...only £5 more expensive....luckily, they refunded me also.
So...I called Orange...and despite having since moved to Vodafone and no longer having a contract with them they agreed to provide the unlock code for free.....yes you guessed it....same code as the 2 online providers....
So...I took it to a shop who tried a 'different' database...which produced..you guessed it...the same code so he took it away and said he suspected the wrong code had been entered too many times which is why the code wasn't working...he was going to try reset the counter to enable the code to be entered...but after a long while...no luck.
I then spoke to HTC who were also very helpful and checked the IMEI which showed them that the unit had been in for repair...no sh*t I said....I had no less than 5 HTC One X's as I ran in to every documented hardware issue there was.....anyway he said....it may be the unit's IMEI got changed and the unlock code no longer matches.....
So that's where I'm at.....I fully own this One X having paid my dues to Orange...I had to put up with 5 faults...and I'm left with a phone that I effectively still have to pay Orange for...
Are there any options open to me ?
Is there a way to unlock it if I root it ?
are HTC able to unlock it ?
thanks,
Ant.

You don't need to pay anyone if you get in touch with orange and as for sim unlock code you should get it free if you've had the handset with them for over 6 month.
Just seen the rest of message have you tried taking it into a orange shop to let them unlock it for you
Are you running a stock ROM? I just ordered an unlock code for my Canadian Rogers One X. Didn't want to start flashing custom ROMs until I got it unlocked.
