Yes since this line cannot be unlocked via HTC Dev

Well the topic is about the Desire and how to get it but I was not sure which forum to put it in so posted it here.
Well my Brother is moving to London for 2 years. Now he has his N95 (unlocked) which he would like to continue using as he has his paid apps installed on it and stuff.
Now he's getting a HTC Desire on contract. So If he uses the Contract Sim in his N95 and sends back the Desire to me here in India, I could unlock it and use it with any data carrier here in India right?
Yes you could unlock / debrand the Desire and use it on another network.

you will be able to use it no probs in india, you may want to check with the network you use in india and make sure that they use a compatible 3g band if that is important to you
Bhai sab fit! It will defo work. What Network is your Bro on?

He will be either on T Mobile or Vodafone
The network won't care right even if he's using his contract sim in his other unlocked phone?

Well I use vodafone here and as of yet there is no 3G so it might not make a differrnce. Any idea what 3G band is used in India though?

Oh and one more thing.
Some guy on tech enclave was saying that if you unlock your phone using the unlock code the phone will once again get locked after I update my phone software to Froyo.
Is that true? I thought this only happened in iPhones? If it's true what are my alternative means of unlocking?
Thank you everyone
Simply re use the same unlock code you originally used to unlock the phone and you'll be fine.

Could you tell me what site you or others used for unlocking the phone from which you could re use the key?
Anyone know How much would it cost in customs to get a Desire from the UK to India?
So I tried to activate a used Note 2 I just bought from someone on Canada's Telus network. According to the CSR the phone is not unlocked. Is there something I can do on the phone to check this?
I tried the "*#simlock#" or "*#simlock#*" or "*#simlock" and all of them just say "Not registered on network."
I did a IMEI lookup and it says my phone is not "blocked" (stolen?) but I can't find anything on how to check if it's locked or not.
Go in the boot loader and choose the sim lock option

Hold the power button + down volume when your phone is shut down!

If I press and hold those 2 keys it just continually reboots. If I press and hold them until something comes on the screen and then let go it just goes into Android.
If I add the Home button to the mix, I end up at the "Downloading..." screen at which point I need to pull the battery to reboot it.
I am a complete noob to Android, by the way, if that wasn't clear.
Haha alright... do you have an other carrier sim card?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
No. The only SIM card that will fit (microSIM) is the Telus one I just bought. I have a work phone on Bell but it's not a microSIM and I'm not going to cut it or I won't be able to put it back in my work phone.
I should clarify that the Note 2 was being used on Bell and I am trying to use it Telus but they said it wasn't unlocked and they couldn't put it on their network.
I also read that I should get a warning error if I put a different SIM in and it is not unlocked but I started it up with my Telus SIM and got no errors.
I'm starting to wonder if they just had a typo in the IMEI or something but if I can find something on the device to prove it's unlocked then I'll know for sure.

Well actually, if your phone was on BELL and you are using it on TELUS and receving sms,data,etc... your unlocked!

That's the problem. They refused to activate it saying it wasn't unlocked. So no, I am not receiving anything on it. If I hadn't had problems getting them to activate it, I probably wouldn't be posting this.
I have a totally different phone which is s-off and unlocked boot loader and all that. If I go to that option in my fastboot screen and I her a bunch of errors like emmc fail and such would that indicate my phone was sim locked? I'm on a droid incredible 4g LTE from Verizon. I'm just curious! Thanks

I just want to check since I have no idea how the CSR knew. They just told me it must not be unlocked but I think they just messed something up on their end.

Looks promising. I don't get a network lock dialog like they show, though. That's why I don't think it's locked. The reason I'm not getting anything from the network is probably because they didn't activate the new SIM because they were having some kind of issue with the IMEI. It'd be nice if they filled in the customer a little more about what the issue is.

Apparently I was right because I called them again today and they didn't even want the IMEI which is what they were having problems with yesterday and now that I've got the SIM activated I'm sending and receiving calls so I guess it's unlocked after all.
Yes it is haha your sim wasn't activated that was the problem !

ahh well best get in contact with your Network Carrier and ask if there is a outage/tower issue, and be sure apns are exact, best is to get a phone that comes from that carrier and look at the apns on that phone

Hey guys,
I read that the phone is "global" and sim unlocked, but I am wondering whether or not it will work with softbank particularly? I read that the service bands are different, but I cannot find any other source other than one, but people do say it should work. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

It is a global phone so it should work. However it makes little sense to buy a Verizon wireless m9 if you are not on Verizon. The phone is completely locked down and requires a Java card to turn soff. I would suggest looking at another carriers branded phone as most are cheaper anyways

I'm sure there will be if the user base calls for it. Hasn't been made yet because the device technically doesn't launch until tomorrow on T-Mobile.
I'm curious if the T-Mo version will work flawlessly with AT&T. I've heard the Sprint and Verizon devices can be buggy.

The unlocked version should work flawlessly on AT&T already.
That it does but due to my wedding in three weeks followed by an expensive honeymoon, I lack the funds to purchase an unlocked one from anywhere other than BestBuy currently.
They say they'll eventually carry unlocked 10s, but really, who knows? They will have the T-Mo version though.

I just put in the Trans #, they require a scan of the receipt anyway, so I recon it's just to cross check.
The proof of purchase will be the scanned document.

Even with the unlocked version we still had to go through HTC Dev to unlock the bootloader to install TWRP. I am willing to bet that it will be the same with the T-Mobile version.
