Can anybody tell me if the giffgaff SIM unlock tool works or do I need to buy a code ?

The only way to unlock is via a s-off bootloader. If you pm me a link to giffgaff unlock too I will have a look. I am on giffgaff and it worked with my DHD before I unlocked mine.
My DHD was with orange. So the chances are if you have a CID of HTC__001 it will work without a code or unlock tool.

Lies. You don't need S-OFF for SIM unlock.

S-OFF and simunlock are different. You can always sim unlock your device with the IMEI code provided by your carrier without even being S-OFF. The fact is that everyone relates S-OFF to sim unlock because both are gained by gfree exploit.
I suggest reading first all the possible documentation / information to avoid misleading posts or suggestions.

Hello,
I have a Wildfire S a510e unlocked with HTC Unlocked (code).
Put m1ndh4x8r rom on it and is working great.
Now ive read some time ago that S-OFF was only possible with a XTC-Clip
But since the bootloader is unlocked, does that mean that S-OFF is possible in other ways?
Or do i still need a XTC Clip to do so?
I want S-OFF to change my boot screen
I did search some topics but cant find the exact answer (yes/no).
Thanks.
You still need XTC Clip to get S-OFF
Have you tried this tutorial? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308169 don't think you need s-off

You can S-off only by using a XTC clip yet. HTCdev only unlocks bootloader.

If you want to root your device, you don't need to S-off. Unlocked bootloader is enough. You can proceed with root and enjoy the hack.
This is the response I got from HTC'es tech support. After asking them why are they not providing S-OFF solution:
Romeo: As long this action is cancel the warranty of the phone, our engineers decide to not provide support to remove the phone security, as most of our customers are not advanced users to know wich programs may harm them phones and cancel the warranty.

Anyway, I have S-ON too, have bootloader unlocked and rooted. This is almost all you need for installing mods like CM7, CM9, CM10, MIUI etc...
So I'm gonna s-off my new M8 tomorrow with firewater (hopefully) but I was hoping to do it with the temproot method. This means the bootloader wont be unlocked before the process. I was wandering if I could unlock the bootloader after s-off without htcdev. Is this possible?

Thank you, I searched but I guess I just missed this.

Hello
I'm selling my HTC One M8. Currently the bootloader is unlocked, rooted, s-off and using super CID. The guy that wants to buy it is using a different carrier and my phone is locked to my carrier. Will the super CID unlock it for any carrier, and still function after bootloader is locked, unrooted and s-on?
Thanks!

That's a no then. Thank you, my fault for not searching enough.
No problem pointing you there
Hello. I recently got a new m8. So I was researching and I found that there was a tool called firewater that is not available anymore. Is there any other way to get s-off. Also can someone link me to how to unlock bootloader. Which one do I have to do first, s-off or unlock bootloader? thanks.
hint :
sunshine
If you have a Verizon varrant, the only way for either is sunshine from @jcase, all other variants should be oem unlockable through htc dev. Sunshine is easier and faster.
But 25$, worth it.

I have an At&t version. What's the fastest and most efficient way to get s off. My bootloader is already unlocked with a twrp recovery.
