[Q] New way to sim unlock m8? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since the old method of sim unlocking seems to be doing more harm than good at the time being (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708567) i would like to know if there is another method of accomplishing a sim unlock? My phone has S-OFF, CID of 11111..., TWRP recovery and venom rom, but i just need the last thing before i can actually use it.. A sim unlock..
Anyone knows of any method?

Unlocking bootloader after rooting

I have just rooted my phone. I wonder if I can unlock bootloader after rooting?
If I can, which way is the easiest way?
And also I want to know the benefits of unlocking Bootloader.
I want to add that I don't know so much about doing so complicated things, please know that while informing me.
I really appriciate your answers...
stock rom Gingerbread 2.3.3, rooted.
Rooting and bootloader unlocking are separate. Your bootloader has to be unlocked using a special code unique to your phone. The code is supplied by Sony Ericsson. It won't work if your phone is a carrier locked one. Unlocking the sim card won't enable it either. You need something called fastboot and only unbranded, unlocked phones have it.

[Q] Wildfire S SIM unlocking (Bootloader unlocked/ rooted)

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 :-/

[Q] Carrier Unlock Question

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.

Working SIM unlock?

Question T-Mobile can let you unlock the Samsung S22 temporarily, The question is really important. Please everybody read

Since T-Mobile will release a temporarily full phone unlock, isn't there anyway for a developer get the bootloader unlock and sim unlock source from inside the phone since it's unlocked? It sounds weird that developers take months to get a sim unlock and the carrier can do an unlock any way they like. There should be a method to push an unlock on any android phone remotely. Do i make sense?
A sim unlock has nothing to do with a bootloader unlock. T-Mobile SIM unlocked my S22 the day i got it, a few days before release.
