a friend of mine has a Wildfire locked on Vodafone RO and he wants to use another carrier on the phone.. can it be done? how? thanks.
You need to buy an unlock code, there's no way (currently?) to unlock it freely.
A couple of people were trying a while back, but that didn't lead anywhere (I think)

So i got my htc desire yesterday unfortunately its locked to orange network, i need a guide to unlock my phone, will rootin my desire unlock it? or is there any other guide?
Thanks waitin for replies
go here and check the sticky
android.modaco.com/category/430/htc-desire-desire-modaco-com/
you then need to flash a rom i believe
cant find any info on that...please give me a link to the guide in which unlocking your sim lock has been explained
Rooting =/= Unlocking
They are two very different things. There is no free method to unlock any recent phones. The only way to unlock is to buy a code off the internet or to ring Orange and ask for the unlocking code. There is simply no other way to unlock the phone.

Hey guys, so I've managed to unlock the bootloader AND root my Wildfire S. I don't know what other steps I need to take to ensure that I can use another SIM card in it.
It still says that the Sim card is locked after unlocking the bootloader and rooting (I know that rooting is in no way connected to unlocking the SIM).
I tried purchasing an unlock code form eBay but the code didn't work.
What are my options now?
Will creating a Gold card and following these instructions do the trick? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22208351&postcount=8
Also, if I flash the stock ROM, will I lose Croatian keyboard that is in the phone currently?
Thanks in advance!
sim lock can only be removed by xtc clip or htc itself.
no goldcard or unlocked bootloader will help you.
If you flash the stock rom that corresponds to your device you will not lose the keyboard.
So flashing a stock rom wont help with the sim unlock?
No. The Sim-Lock information is stored in the phones radio firmware which can not be changed yet without an xtc clip. So Sim-Lock is independent from the operating system.
Ok, thanks for the info.
I still don't understand why are all these sites and ebay sellers selling unlock codes if the unlocking is only possible trough XTC clip.
The guy that sold me that faulty code said that they work in 99% cases, and refunded me without a question.
I don't really see how that could be a viable business if it doesn't work :-/
Hello. recently I read on a section of the HTC One X forum that if you want to unlock the carrier of a HOX and you have a custom ROM flashed and bootloader unlocked you need to lock back the bootloader and flash a stock ROM. Is it true, or can unlock it with the custom rom flashed?
You can`t disable the carrier lock without s-off.
Thanks for the answer. So there is no way someone could unlock the carrier if i have S-on?
No, sorry....
There is no way without S-OFF.:angel:
You can unlock your carrier to allow different network Sims, just google "HTC one x carrier unlock".
It's not possible to change your cid without s-off

Here comes the problem.. I know that cellunlocker.net is trusted when comes to unlock codes and i got my code yesterday. I was on Custom ROm with bootloader unlocked. When i enter the code it says it's incorect so that's why i need to know if i need to relock the bootloader and go on stock rom?
I had the same situation.HTC locked device with the code you can find on websites but then your carrier changed unlock codes,and the one you bought from site is incorrect.
I asked my carrier to tell\sell me the code but they dont want to untill the warranty is over.You can ask your carrier also,it doesnt cost you anything
My local phone repair service tell me that only solution for me is to take apart phone and read codes directly from motherboard but then i will lose warranty,which is ok for me,i already unlocked bootloader and root my hox
Just relocked and flashed stock rom. I will contact the carrier and try to get the code. Thanks for the help.

this is not the AT&T HTC One X forum
same question - how to unlock from carrier htc one X+ ?
can it be done by finding unlock code on the phone itself?

you can't, you need s-off to unbrand the phone....
matt you are not getting it...
there is a carrier lock (if you put other sim it wont register in the network) and "branding" which is just software that can be reflashed after s-off
i am talking about the carrier lock - how to remove it ? or only option is to buy unlock code?
At the moment the only way is to purchase. Got my code for about $6 on eBay.
