Sprint HTC Touch Pro2

OK, here's the issue.
I unlock my tp2 with the cdma unlocker while my phone was in SIM mode. I checked the security on the phone, and it's saying "Your phone is SIM Unlocked". I need help relocking the phone so i can unlock the cdma on this phone.

then you gotta remove your esn of the touch pro from boost mobile call them and tell them you want to remove the esn and then activate your new esn

i try that, and when they asked me to hit ##3282# i was unable to access the msid code to switch it to my number. the phone is unlocked with the new unlock tool.

Hey,
I've already got my SIm Unlock code (this guide helped me get it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233513 )
However when I placed my non-TMobile Sim, I don't get the "SIM Code" popup. This phone belongs to my godfather and he's not sure if he tried entering the code too many times when he tried to use an AT&T Sim.
How can I check if its permanently locked and/or force it to bring up the Sim code popup?
I'm rooted with S-OFF but still on the stock HTC rom.
Thanks.
Edit: I've done the Diag screen to Clean S58 Data and it's still not showing up.. :-/
Edit 2: Scratch the above. I did the Clean S58 data twice, and I got signal. My godfather will love this!

Branded or unbraded doesn't mean fake or original.
Branded = it came with your sim carrier (any logo of your carrier on it?)
Unbranded= means the opposit
If you have a branded phone, you can use only the sim of your carrier unless you unlock it.
This is why I asked. Good luck!

Insert a non-accepted SIM card, then the device will ask for the unlock code, input the code they have you from VZW and triple check what you input (it will be masked by asterisks).
That's about it.

Spoke to 2 friends that are more into the CDMA stuff and they both said that there is virtually no locks for CDMA, unless its highly subsidized and then again its unlikely they've locked it.Anyway, that's not 100% correct for sure.
That code they gave you could be one that you provide to the provider you want to switch the phone to.
Imo best is to ask the operator how to use it, they may have some internal procedures we may not know of.

SIM Unlock - Your phone is not yet personalized. ???

Purchased a used D850 that was supposedly unlocked. Is there any way to verify other than trying other SIMS (which I don't have)? Picked up a code from an eBay seller and when I enter 2945#*850# each of the 5 menu items returns "Your phone is not yet personalized" with "Dismiss" as the only option.

Well there is your problem, You can't use the D850 on PagePlus/Verizon... Verizon is CDMA carrier not GSM. The only reason why Verizon uses sim cards is for LTE.
You'd only be able to use a VS985 or a LS985 on page plus.

I am aware of that.
I switched from PagePlus (Verizon) using the VS985 to Cricket (AT&T) using the D850 with the Cricket SIM. The person I bought the D850 from said it was SIM unlocked and I'm trying to verify that; I've purchased an unlock code for the D850, but when I dial the code I mentioned above each of the five options returns the "Your phone is not yet personalized" message with the only option being "Dismiss."
You then told me to insert a non-accepted SIM so I inserted the PagePlus (Verizon) SIM.

Ahh so you where just testing? Well using a Verizon system to test is not a good test. But wait your trying using a Cricket sim? A D850 does not have to he unlocked to work on Cricket, AT&T Go Phone, H20 and other AT&T mvnos. It just works.
If your trying to use a non AT&T/mvno sim then it would need to be unlocked like if you wanted to use T-Mobile.
Also if the phone is locked you CANT unlock it using a custom ROM, you have to flash it back to stock. But if your using it on Cricket the phone doesn't have to be unlocked.

So your using the back to stock guide and going 100% completely back to stock before trying by using the tot method right?
So are you trying to use the Verizon sim to unlock it? If so that might be a problem and you'd need something like a T-Mobile sim

Yep, it had Lollipop when I got it, so I tot'ed back to KK.
The seller of the unlock code's instructions indicate their code will work with the Cricket SIM or an "unapproved" SIM, so I restored stock KK and entered the 2945etc code and received the message that is the title of this thread.
Perhaps the phone is already unlocked, as the person from whom I bought it said it was. I don't know this to be true, so I'm trying to verify before travel.

You can get a T-Mo sim for free. Either go into a T-Mo store, or get one on their site.

I inserted a T-Mobile SIM and dialed 2945#*850# and after selecting each of the five options I recieved the "Your phone is not personalized" message.
Perhaps the phone is already unlocked? The carrier logo at the top left of the screen said T-Mobile, and when I went into Settings/About Phone it said T-Mobile LTE.

Your phone is unlocked. If your phone was locked when you turn it on it will tell you. I'm not sure but that code I don't think has anything to do with unlocking lol. You never enter a code in the dailer. You always just enter your unlock code when you boot your phone.
Your phone is unlocked or you wouldn't be seeing the T-Mobile network.

I'm having a similar situation. I have the 851, and I'm receiving this same message. The phone was locked to T-Mobile, but I want to use it for Metro. Please help.

Call the original carrier of the phone, they should be able to get the unlock code. If not them, call ur carrier.

[GUIDE]Unlock Any LTE Band[TESTED][100% Working]

This method is only known to be working on VZW M8's.
I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING WRONG HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE BY FOLLOWING THIS GUIDE!
Before proceeding ahead Just check which bands your service provider uses and note it down somewhere.
(Since there are many people out there who have asked about jio or other indian carriers, for their convinience i am writing a short note : In india Reliance Jio is using band 3,5 and 40 and airtel is using band 3 and 40. all other carriers are also using these three frequencies only i.e. 3,5 and 40. I am no longer using my verizon m8 currently i have an indian galaxy S7, but when i was using my m8 i was able to connect to band 3 using airtel, i also tried using jio but it doesn't work at least for me.)
Steps To Unlock The LTE Bands :
First of all ensure you are on stock verizon rom.(Its Really Easy to Enter Diag Mode On Stock Verizon ROM)
if not use an RUU from this thread(use the latest one.):-HERE
Install HTC Sync Manager on your PC before proceeding ahead, by putting your phone into install mode.
Now once you have flashed the ruu or you are already on stock verizon rom and also installed htc sync manager, Follow these steps :-
1. Download DFS Tool
2. Skip this step if you are using a CDMA SIM.
Put your phone into cdma mode by going into Settings>Mobile Data>Network Mode>LTE Only Mode. Enable USB debugging as well.
3. Open Phone Dialler type on the Dial Pad ##3424# and press call button. Phone Should enterr into diag mode. If you are on marshmallow firmware phone will ask for MSL code, Here it is - 000000(6 times zero).
4. connect your phone to the computer and install DFS Tool You just downloaded on your computer.
5. Optional : Create an account on this website - https://www.cdmatool.com/
6. Open DFS tool and login or just skip the login if you do not have cdmatool.com account.
7. Now you will see your m8 listed as PORTXX(X - Refers to any number between 0-9) in DFS Tool. Double click on it.
8.On the DFS Logs window you should read something like device connected.
9.Now in main DFS Window click on Band Tab, then under the bands tab you will see two tabs, HSPA and LTE click on Latter one.
10.Click Read.
11. Select the LTE bands you need.
12. Click write.
13. Restart Your Phone Once.
14 Put It Back Into GSM Mode/CDMA mode depending on your network provider.
For Stock ROM Users Only/Custom ROMs Based on Verizon stock ROM/Still Not Getting LTE
1.Download This APP
2.Then Select GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto in the App
Still not getting LTE?
Reset phone through stock recovery(4.4.X reccomended.)
Test for at least a day and then report back by either participating in the poll above or replying below.

Flashing a rom shouldn't change it. It would only change if you flashed an RUU or flashed just the firmware for the phone.

Yes it should remain as is no matter whatever ROM u flash.

You might not be having that good 4g reception in your area. That can be the most probable reason. Try using your SIM in some other 4G phone and tell if the same thing happens.

I tried this on my GSM-unlocked HTC One M8 (w official marshmallow installed), but I can't seem to get into the diag. mode. I was asked for MSL code after I type in ##3424#, but I don't have the MSL code.
Anyway to get MSL code or get by this one? Do I have to unlock the phone to do the steps as in OT? Mine is still locked and S-ON.
Your help will be very appreciated.

You will need root access without that it will not be possible to enter Diag mode in your case.
If you have non-verizon m8...why dont you just unlock bootloader via HTC Dev and root your phone. Also you can root your phone with kingroot without needing to either unlock bootloader or S-Off the phone iff you are on 5.x.x or lower as far as i know(Many people having verizon M8 used kingroot to achive s-off via sunshine while they were on 5.0.1).

If you have verizon m8 then you can unlock bands without root.
You need to go to cdma mode from global mode amd then go to dial pad then ##3424# as it says above in guide........
There is no verizon gsm model but all verizon m8s have gsm built in so that they can support lte, as lte is a different technology from both cdma and gsm but based on gsm.

11. Select the LTE bands you need.

Per Verizon, their M8 supports LTE Band 13 / 4 (700/1700 MHz).
Has anyone had success using this method to unlock bands 2/4/12 for LTE on AT&T/T-Mobile? I'd be especially interested if anyone is successful unlocking bands 3/7/20 for use in the UK and Europe. (I have a very tentative plan to visit the UK and it would be great if I could get 4G speeds while I'm there.)

I can confirm about 2,3,4,7,9,40.
One person has even written that he was succeful to unlock all bands.
