Hi all,
I have a locked T-Mobile Desire and wish to use my Orange sim card in it.
I have tested the phone with a T-Mobile sim and this works fine but when I put the Orange sim in I get no signal and the limited service message. I have also tried this with a Vodafone sim card and get the same.
I have a 8 digit unlock code but basically have no where to input it. Can anyone help me with this please?
Regards
James
same here
if you find something, let me know, please
I continue googling
Not sure, but I think this might help

unlock my HTC Desire without using another sim card
Hello,
Someone tried that to know if it's dangerous or not ?
Otherwise, I will wait for somebody who lend me it's sim card.
Thanks
Edit: I forget that, I'd like to unlock my HTC Desire without using a cable and without another sim card.

Sorry for the Noobness of this question, but I tried searching and did not find a solution. I have obtained an unlock code from T-mobile and do not have a SIM card from another provider with me at the moment. Is there another way that I can get the Wing to ask me for the SIM Unlock code w/o having to enter another provider's SIM? I'm sure there is, but I need help finding it. Thanks ahead of time for anyone willing to help!

NO!
Find someone that is on AT&T and borrow their SIM card for a few minutes! It's not that hard - I've done it twice in the last month (in the opposite direction)
Hey there,
I noticed the option SIMLOCK in the HBOOT Menu and because I was moving to another country, I realized that by unlocking my HTC Desire, I would be able to use it in the country I was going to. However, after executing that option, my phone stopped recognizing any SIM card. It is now showing the message "Please insert a SIM card" even when there is a SIM card in it.
I am wondering then, if there is a way to fix it.
I'd be very, very glad if any of you could give me insight.
Thanks!
Have you tried calling the company you got the phone from and explaining the issue to them? You obviously can't use that phone but it couldn't hurt to try calling them.
Selecting SIMLOCK will LOCK the device. Unless stated the Desire comes unlocked by default
Really? Do you know have any suggestions about what I can do to make it work again?
Any solution for that, please??? I just locked mine. Now my phone asks for the simcard. It cannot recognize it
I am panicking now!

How does creating a goldcard affect sim lock? It doesnt on other HTC devices. Just interested as someone asked me to look into the wildfire S Sim lock.

It doesn't, goldcards only allow you to flash a ROM with a different CID than your phone. To remove SIM lock you need to either buy a code based on your IMEI, or factory unlock with the XTC Clip.
I removed the SIM Lock on a T-Mobile Wildfire S hoping to use it on O2 in UK this worked in that I can get past the SIM Lock prompt but the phone seems to also have some kind of carrier lock which prevents it registering on any other network than T-Mobile.
Tried debranding and downgrading without success. Just waiting for the XTC clip to come now so I can get rid of my X10 Mini Pro and start using my new phone properly
If you buy the phone from somewhere like carphone warehouse, you get a factory unlocked phone and they just give you the sim card.

Hi!!
There are only two ways.
You may buy an unlock code for your Wildfire S. It costs about 12€.
Or you may buy an XTC Clip. It costs about 40 € plus shipping fee, and with that you may unlock and S-OFF as many as HTC devices (see list of devices supported) as you want.
Bye!!
My cousin gift to me a DHD A9191 by Vodaphone UK:
- First, I insert my SIM card then turn on the phone.
- After boot, the phone verify a new SIM card then is's ask for unlock code.
- I don't know what is unlock code, then I type some numbers, then is's ask more about password. I don't know about that again then I turn it off.
- After searched on Google, some body tell me that should factory reset to clear password. I did it.
- Then, it really clear password as I want, but the real trouble come...
- The phone can not verify the SIM card anymore, always say that: "No sim card on the phone" both way I inserted or not the SIM card.
- Then, I ask for Google again and I come here in the AAHK topic for root, unlock, ...etc
- I done as well, everything is okay, but is's still like before, can not verify the sim card. Phone network always disabled.
- I was not give up, I try more by recover a new rom CM7... nothing else!
- More, I flash it to stock with RUU rom 1.3... nothing else too.
- Then I try my last by "One click Radio S-OFF", done but nothing else too...
So now, I don't know how must I do to let it work ....
Please teach me some thing, thank you so much.
Sorry about my bad english. Have a good day,

nhatkhang17, that means that the phone is sim lock. Even if you used the Hack Kit (that leaves you sim unlock) that doesn't work with every carrier in the world. Some carriers have code locked sims and then you won't be able to use any sim.
If you try many times using incorrect codes, then the phone will be blocked and you will need to buy an usb unlock code.
Stop flashing everything at arm length or you will mess your phone...flashing a different rom or returning to stock won't change that. If you don't have signal then put the sim cover on..
So I can't do anything for it? So sad...
I did search on Google and they said that XTC clip tool can unlock sim, can it resolve my trouble?
Try this site...I bought the code to unlock my inspire from them and I know that they sell that tool, so just ask them...

Hello guys, sorry to bother. I am contacting you to see if someone can help me, i´ve searched and searched the web without any luck. Almost three weeks ago i got here in Mexico an HTC one M9 from Telcel, I have two mobile phones two lines one telcel one iusacell. I needed to change the iusacell phone but did not like what they had. I got the telcel phone HTC one m9, and it was unlocked from telcel, i put my iusacell sim and worked great. Strangely after two weeks, the screen intact, with not a bump and a glass cover, internally failed and i sent it to a authorized center from the provider, they sent it to HTC and HTC sent me a brand new phone.
This new HTC one m9 works perfect with the telcel chip, i inserted the iusacell chip and it gave me message "UNAUTHORIZED SIM CARD, EC calls only". I assumed it was normal, went and bought the unlock code and tried to enter it, but i noticed it never popped the network unlock screen, it always pops the UNAUTHORIZED SIM CARD EC CALLS ONLY" message on the main screen and the only thing it lets me do with the iusacell chip is place emergency calls. no codes, not even to check imei.
I´ve been looking for support with no help, when entering the unlock code and hitting call (no ok button) it tells me its not an emergency call.
Searching i found that its probably that in the service menu (mode) they deactivated the network unlock screen, but i have not found how to get into the service mode of the phone, everywhere for older htcs they say its *#0011# but no luck, the only codes that work are the *#*#4636#*#* and the 3424 but none of them help me.
What can i do? I prefer to use my iphone for that line and use this phone for my other line which is on a different carrier.
Any ideas or help?
cheers and thanks
Ivan
They gave you a new phone, new motherboard and it's not unlocked. I would assume. It'll probably need to be simple unlocked again. With the first phone you had to request that it be unlocked right?

Strangely enough the first phone i bought came unlocked, i had purchased online the unlock code but when i inserted another sim i did not require it. The problem with this replacement M9 is that although i´ve already bought the unlock code the screen never prompts for the network unlock code. When i insert a different sim that from the carrier (telcel) it prompts an "UNAUTHORIZED SIM CARD; ER CALLS ONLY", i´ve inserted IUSACELL MEXICO SIM, ATT USA SIM
TMOBILE USA SIM all with the same result.
cheers

I know with the T-Mobile phones, or at least I'm pretty sure, we have to flash an international rom to get that screen to come up. Kinda sucks but maybe that's the problem?

Thanks I was considering it, i think its a possibility, although, i havent searched much but there is still no way to free the bootloader of an HTC one M9 and im sure myne is pretty locked up =(
cheers Ivan
You can unlock it or s-off , but a-off is $25. Unlock is free on HTC Dev unlock. It's pretty easy, have you used HTC dev unlock before?

It works I've used it. You have to select the very bottom option, it says something like all other models

I finally got the bootloader unlocked, root and s-off, now the question would be what rom should i flash in order to get the unauthorized sim card message out when i insert a different carrier sim, so the network unlock screen pops and i am able to enter the unlock code?

I used ARHD to unlock my T-Mobile m9. Prior to that I also wasn't getting the option of putting in sim unlock code similar to yours. However once you flash and sim unlock it, you can flash any rom and the sim unlock will stick. Good luck.

Thanks =) i did manage to get a new rom into it ARHD and interesting enough when inserting a different carrier sim now I do get the network unlock code screen. I tested the pin i had bought and it did not work, I asked and they told me they will try to find it out. I did try a few more services to buy the code but they all tell me that they cannot find my IMEI in their database. This i find really strange, does anyone know what can it be? I need to unlock since i will be travelling to the USA and want to put a prepaid card into my phone.
cheers

I had the same problem as you. My HTC was originally from T-Mobile, I unlocked bootloader, flashed latest TWRP recovery, rooted and S-off'ed. After that I also set CID to BS_US001 and MID to 0PJA11000
After that downloaded Developer Edition RUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-one-m9/general/att-developer-edition-ruu-how-to-t3086948 (use the 1.32.617.30 RUU.zip, using the 0PJAIMG.ZIP method), after that you will be prompted to insert unlock code and receive latest updates, hope it helps!

This is for not found service, http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-not-found-Unfound-unlock-code-for-Telus-Kado-Wind-Bell-solo-AT-T-T-mobile-/281679367246?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item4195660c4e
If you already bought and received an unlock code there is a big probability that you had a typo with your imei maybe. Usually when you receive an unlock code they tend to always work. Hope it helps
Hold on there's a tested and working free sim unlock in here somewhere! I have used it and multiple others, let me try to get the link.
