are there otherways?
Yes, you can purchase an unlock code. But why? The link above will get it unlocked for free. Worked first time with my desire.
I had to use the linux CD in order to connect to the phone in hboot.. but it worked perfectly and my desire is now unlocked.. and all it cost me was a little time

Hello, i have one piece htc wildfire which is network locked...can anyone tell me how to unlock it?
create goldcard and flash with any wwe rom you want
Hey,
I got an unlock code off of htcsimunlocknow.com but I am not sure how to enter it into my phone. It has been flashed with CM6 RC2 and it won't ask for any sort of sim unlock code even if I put an invalid sim into the phone. I know the phone is locked with the Telstra for sure!!
So if anybody knows how to enter the unlock code I would be able to say how reliable that site is!!
EDIT: THANK GOD. I had a nandroid backup of the original rom that came with the phone so I just flashed back to that. Inserted the invalid sim after the flash and it asked for the unlock code which I entered and IT WORKED!!
Also, the site i mentioned has a live chat and the fella helping me was so patient as it took my about 30mins for me to actually pay as I was stuffing around withy my paypal and he got the unlock sent to my email about 10mins after the payment went through! I'm not sure if flashing back to cm6 will make the phone locked to one network again though :/

gold cards are fairly easy to make all you need is a spear sd card (doesnt have to be very big) heres a guide: http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
As far as I know, with a goldcard you can root and debrand your phone, but not sim-unlock it.
If it is possible to remove the sim-lock using a goldcard, please explain how.
Confirmation
I confirm, I just spent the night flashing my new wildfire to simunlock it, the flashing finally worked but it is still sim locked !!!
Really very surprising, it means the simlock info is stored somewhere which was not affected by the flashing, which is quite astounding.
If you have any info about what to delete for that...
I unlocked my wildfire for 25 euro on the web. I sent my IMEI and in about 2 hours they sent the unlock code and it worked perfectly.

Who is your provider?? you can try unlock code from your provider and get your HTC wildfire unlocked..if not you can get it from online provider..just make a try with Prounlocking and get unlock code for your mobile and get it unlocked..
Go to a phone unlocking shop. I got one done for £15 in the uk. Or you could ask about and see if you know anyone with a xtc clip. As that will s-off your device and remove sim lock. Good luck
Also sim lock stuff is stored in with the hboot and radio and stuff.

I found a code for $9 at Nck Codes. It wouldn't work with CM7, has to put a stock ROM on the phone to unlock then flash CM7 again.
Hello guys.
When you use htcdev.com to unlock your bootloader, you will have to provide a device identifier to HTC. Then you get an unlock code.
This way HTC knows you have unlocked, or at least tried to unlock your phone.
What I am looking for is someone with a completely unmodified HTC Wildfire S (factory state). So it must be S-ON and never have been unlocked before. Best would be a brand new Wildfire S.
What do I want to test?
Dump the /radio and the /misc partition before and after several events
---- on an unmodified WFS
---- on an umodified WFS having installed the HTCDEV RUU
Then we will try to unlock the phone without getting the unlock token from HTCDEV.
If that works we will again dump some partitions to see what has changed.
As you may probably be new to this with an unlocked phone I will guide you to all the steps needed. There is nothing to worry about your phone. If it does not work we will make your phone as it was before.
I look forward to getting help in this matter. If it works out this will make the unlocking process easier and will keep your warranty.
Please take you about an hour time to step it all through.
Thanks

Sounds like a plan... Got mine A-off months ago, before HTC dev bl unlock existed.

i guess you couldn't, since this is meant for the wfs not sensation and that sensation and wfs are completely different
you are right
In china you unlock your HTC phone don't need to unlock token，just a tools，and click unlock，and then your phone unlocked.very east and fast,no body know that？
I got my GSM, SLED HTC Desire from Orange UK under contract.
A friend upgraded it to HBOOT 1.03.0003, radio 5.17.05.23 and Cyanogen 7.1 thinking that this would also SIM unlock the phone. However, when I put a foreign SIM in it, it prompts for a network unlock code.
I've tried following the exact steps on the GiffGaff page about unlocking a Desire phone (the forum won't allow me to link, sorry), using both 0.9.5 and 0.9.4. 0.9.4 reports success but I am still prompted for an unlock code. 0.9.5 complains that it only works on the Desire and some Sensation phones. It doesn't seem to make a difference whether it is S-ON or S-OFF.
I have even paid Orange for an unlock code. However, when I try to use this code I am prompted for it only once, not twice as the instructions say I will be. It reports success, but then says "Emergency Calls Only".
What is left for me to try? Is there any area where I need to give any more detail? Thanks!

I unlocked mine (from Telenor) with this having no problems at all:

But if you paid them, go to their customer service and ask for help. Of course you will have to install some factory rom if you have warranty.

I'm trying to unlock my HTC Wildfire (BUZZ) A3333, it's on KoolSony HD ROM (based on CM7) by KoolSavas (it's a great ROM thanks KoolSavas) but when I put the foreign SIM card it doesn't show the unlock code prompt? I have already got the code but it won't show the prompt to unlock the phone!
What should I do? I don't want to flash a different ROM like stock and such, it shouldn't be worth the effort!
Please help me out!

It was SIM unlock. Don't worry I had to flash to a Froyo ROM, I used RemPuzzleROM to unlock it, people if you're going to root it then first unlock it on Froyo then go to CM7. CM7 seems to ignore the SIM unlock prompt but if it's on any Froyo ROM (RemPuzzleROM, Stock etc.) then it should unlock successfully but when I entered it, it just did a Hot Restart (went back to bootanimation) but it seemed to unlock :victory:
Hi,
I have an HTC One X, rooted and running CyanogenMod11. I am now trying to unlock it from the network. I have the code from 3 but it doesn't work!
I've read about the XTC Clip and been looking in to it, but it seems to use an SD card. The HTC One X doesn't have an SD card! Does anyone know if the Clip works on the HTC One X and has anyone been successful using it?
Thanks
If I'm not wrong you can't unlock it with custom rom, needs to be complete stock. I unlocked network from T-Mobile UK and worked fine before unlocking/rooting. You could contact http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk and see if they can unlock it for you if u can't do it yourself. I used them to s-off my hox. They are legit and fast.
