Hey i was wondering how exactly do i unlock it so i can use a tmobile sim card thanks in advanced!
I'm very sure you need a XTC Clip to unlock Sim card (and get S-OFF permanently) if you don't want to spend $60~ to buy one, look around craigslist for someone in your area that 'roots' phones or unlocks them, and just ask if they have a XTC Clip, they usually charge around $23-30.
Im buying a droid incredible 2 tmrw how can i check if its a bad esn if it is a bad esn would that matter since im going on tmobile
I was also told it was as simple as putting in a tmo sim card restarting it and putting in an unlock code
Dinc2 is world phone so you will be able to use any GSM network in the world. No you don't need root or S-off to do this.
Thank yu much so i can just put in my tmo sim and buy an unlock code
Oh turns out I was wrong on my post, but if you want root you can get it now!
Yeah basically, and bad ESN doesn't matter on T-MO as it's not CDMA.
Ard thx im getting my incredible tmrw at about 5 cant wait to start toying with it
You won't be able to use 3g on T-Mobile only. Dues to the gsm bands on the inc2 not supporting U.S GSM bands only overseas

So did you get it? If so, how is the signal/data?
Hiya, I have a question here.
I have an HTC:Wildfire ViginMobile Locked.
I would like to use my o2 SimCard.
I know I can get the code, but they are pretty expensive, so I'm looking for different way to unlock my phone.
Will changing the software of my phone affect simlock?
I really need to get rid of it.
Thanks in advance

Hey-
Mine is also on Virgin UK and when I downgraded for revolutionary to HBOOT 1.00.001, it prompted me at first boot which network I was on, so it might work if you put your O2 Sim in it, not sure though

Hi all,
thinking of buying the onex in Australia.. the phone is locked to Vodafone, but i am a telstra user.. does anyone know if the one x will work properly on the telstra 3g network at 850mhz once unlocked from vodafone??
Also is it hard to do a rom flash ,as i havent been able to do this on an android phone(not real tech savvy) as i would like to remove any "inbuilt" vodafone apps/links/features from the phone completely!!
Yes. Provided your phone is not sim locked.

Im being told that it isnt sim locked by person selling to me!!
some will say all sorts just to get a sale!!
I'm using an HTC One X from Optus and it works great on Telstra. I'm not sure if Vodafone sells them unlocked but I believe you can get them unlocked by Vodafone.
Got mine from Allphones.

Yep, buy outright (SIM unlocked) and you'll be sweet.
I also bought at AllPhones and am running LiveConnected (cos Telstra bite big time ). I still get the Optus boot screen, but it's not a big deal, only pops up for a second.
ok so i admittedly have unlocked a desire z a while back but it was a right faff and it was a spare phone,
iv now got a brand new HTC M8
its locked to vodaphone (boo)
and has a vodaphone rom (again boo)
so iv tried to unlock the phone with a paid for code as its a lot lot easier but none off the sites seem to be able to give me a code. they just say sorry and give me my money back.
is it possible to unlock the phones sim lock without S-off?
if not, which is better, S-off or htcdev.? id really like to keep the warranty on this phone as iv got 2 years supposedly and HTC have been really good before
im assuming htc dev will void warranty's since you have to give them your phone details? is S-off detectable? can i turn it back on?
Sunshine app is 25 bucks ... But will unlock your bootloader and give you s-off, without HTC knowing about it.
That's what I did.
Then I think you can Sim unlock. I say think, cause I haven't done it with this phone.
Hi guys,
I purchased an ATT HTC one m9 when they first came out which I unlocked and had S-off. I dropped it at work and it got all chipped up and was acting up. I have been wanting to get another ever since but really couldn't afford it. I see now that Staples has the Verizon HTC One M9 for $200. I am thinking about buying it. I use a nexus 5 on straight talk TMO now. I mostly use my phone at work where TMO and ATT seam to have the best Internet connection. If I use a straight talk Sim in it and it doesn't get a good connection at work can I SIM unlock it, root it, and S-off and it will support the proper bands for AT&T and TMO?
Thanks guys,
Rocky
Ps. Do you guys think HTC will fix my AT&T unlocked, S-off, rooted m9 under warranty for free or for a small fee?
Verizon phone's come factory unlocked.
But why not get one for T-Mobile or At&t as they would be fully compatible as a Verizon M9 something's will not work fully..
