You don't have to buy an unlock code to get it rooted. You can use a goldcard and root it. It's free

will a golden card and rooting it allow me to sim unlock ? cuz i have been reading about it and its ambigous, i think it`s impossible to sim unlock without a an unlock code.
Rooting wont unlock the phone, no.
But you can use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943726 . It is free and works, you dont need to root or anything.

Goldcard is for branded RUUs only. In Romania there are no phones with branded RUUs, all of them have stock. They're network locked not branded. Use sieempi's utility, I've unlocked my phone locked by Orange Romania.
Edit: didn't read the post carefully enough. It appears from the RUU thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667 that Orange France doesn't have a branded RUU either. So you should't have to make a goldcard.

Hi,
Is there a free solution to sim unlocking yet?
please, a try everything but i dont get it free. i upgrade to WM6, trinity unlock and nothig. y realy want to know if imeichek is 100% secure.
First phone up your operator and try and get an unlock code. Then if that doesnt work, use imeicheck.
This is my second s620.. This one is simlocked though.. I was hoping to use the free cid unlock feature to avoid paying imei check again! Would it be possible to cid unlock the phone with out the sim in it and flash the rom with WM6? Would that get rid of the Unlock code prompt to enter sim code? I don't see why it wouldnt work considering the Tmob rom would be gone.. right? Any thoughts?

No that won't work. You could use my Sim unlock method, not free of charge, but cheaper than anything else: here

Please drop me a PM and I will give you further details.
Is there a way to unlock the phone, because I read that Austrian operators relock the phones? Is there a way to unlock this via flashing rom???
Buying a unlock code is the way.
Flashing a ROM would not do.

ok, thanks. from where do you suggest to buy the code
I have never used unlock codes as I didn't had to.
But using a simple search suggests:
http://www.htcsimunlock.com/htc-desire-unlock.html
You can also talk to the carrier that it's locked and asked them how much will they charge you to unlock it.
Be careful when using sites and read the disclaimer and the refunding options before paying for a code.

Hi,
You can try www(punkt)semaf(punkt)at - this is a austrian onlineshop.
I'm sorry, but i'm not allowed to post extern links...
I have tested this with my HTC Touch Diamond and it works perfect.
Hello

As far as I know bootloader unlock has nothing to do with it.... So....
How do I make my HOX usable also with other carriers???

you can't...you would need S-OFF to change the CID
You need to buy an unlock code from eBay or somewhere like that, put another SIM card into your phone, and when it says enter unlock code, then put in the code.
CID has nothing to do with carrier unlock, CID just determines what updates you get, and a branded phone has to have an update modified by the carrier before pushing it to their handsets.

Morning Chaps,
Im quite the novice when it comes to phones and I was just wondering if my phone is locked to 3, do i need to unlock the BL, root and also flash the device?
As i followed the instructions but when inserting another sim i get the network locked message.
Any advice guys?

The unlocking of the bootloader and rooting as nothing to do with been sim locked. What you could do is phone 3 and tell them you are going abroad on holiday and need it unlocking so you can put another cheaper sim in when your abroad.

I thought about that,
basically iv asked around and was told that even the unlocking websites cant guarantee these codes working
someone had also informed me you cant unlock the htc one x expecially if its on 3

Give them a bell, its worth a shot. Didnt realise they sim lock their contract phones (apart from iPhone and Blackberry and specials), a lot of other providers dont care because your tied to them with the contract.

simple answer. if the device is carrier locked, you can only use a sim for that carrier (without unlocking).
if the device is unlocked, you can use any compatible sim.
