any 1 plz can expalin or direct me on forum how i unlock my phone

You mean root? Here is the thread.
For SIM unlock here.
if you have unbranded phone just go to settings/about phone/software-update
it will update automaticly
htc provides the update automatically when you check for updates from your phone.
if you do not intend to root, it should be enough
Well the automatic update wont update my phone to 2.2 so i have to root it
hope ill get it right

Really no need to root, if it wont update over the air then you need to check your firmware and your branding as some providers such as orange will hold back firmware updates
rooting is only needed if you want custom made roms, for official updates from your provider go ask them.
Rooting + costum roms have some advantages... no more low internal memory, thanks to app2ext (that's why I rooted)
guys my friend recently bought the galaxy s3 .t999 .i think the phone is unlocked because he is using it in india . and on a different carrier. the problem is that the phone is on 4.1.2 .i dont know where to find the rom for this model, or even whether i should update this phone .i mean i dont know if the phone is unlocked for the current firmware and whether it will still be unlocked after updating in or installing a custom rom. i have attached a photo of the about screen. rooting is not a problem. i need to know whether i can install any custom rom on it without locking it . and please if i can update it try giving me a link for the firmware
If the phone is working there, it must have been unlocked. You can update the phone and the phone will stay unlocked. However, you do not want to update to the latest 4.3 release from T-mo/Samsung. Too many problems with it.
If you really want, you could root it and just flash Rooted 4.3 rom ONLY from this thread. But that does need a custom recovery.
right ^^^ don't do the OTA

You need to have a fully function T-Mobile sim inside your phone in order for the update to show up

Hello everyone,
i bought an htc 820u recently and in the settings > about, software update is missing. Therefore i cannot upgrade to lollipop, that is my main problem.
I think that the only solution would be to install another stock kitkat rom so i can do the software update. i am used to flash samsung roms but when it comes to htc i know nothing. it's been 4 days i've been searching desperately but i cant get any tutorial to flash a kitkat rom. i managed to get a solution where it says to restore the kitkat rom through a twrp backup. i told to myself ok, i made a search on how to get twrp recovery and to my disapointment i find out that i need to unlock bootloader.
Once more i told to myself ok and go forward trying to unlock bootloader but i can't figure out how to do that correctly. All that struggle only to get a lollipop update, i'm really tired of that i'm losing all my time with this. If anyone can help me that would be appreciated. Feels really discouraging to look for something that much and not getting any results wow...
I managed to do it on my own finally after so much time. Thanks to ale those who saw the post and decided NOT to help. Topic closed.
820 flash
how do solve this problem please tell me how to downgrade htc 820
Hey guys
As I searched these threads i didnt see anyone talking about how to root the Desire 820n a51ul model(single sim)
So please help me with these questions:
1.how to root this model?(and if there is any driver needed on pc or sth)
2.how to install twrp recovery?
3.lets assume i rooted my device, will i be able to do the official ota update like before?(from settings)
i mean doesnt it brick my device if I update it while im rooted?
4.and if it wont brick the device, will i still be rooted?(i guess not)
so in one sentence, I want to have a rooted phone with custom recovery but I dont want to install any custom rom or ruu and just want to update through settings-software updates setion like before, is it possible?!
current firmware: 2.10.401.4 lollipop latest update for single sim variant D820n a51ul
thank you

Have fun!
P.S: After you root your phone, as far as I know you can't upgrade your phone via OTA mode, I tried it and now I have a bricked phone. But there's way instead. So don't worry, just remember to make the backup before you want to do sth, so that your phone will be safe.

thank you for the info my friend
btw as you have the same model as mine, how does it perform in intensive games like asphalt 8?(mine does very bad on high quality settings and heats up really bad)
I wish they clocked the cpu on 1.7ghz...
