Just been browsing the Desire forum and came across some free-ware that let's you unlock your phone. Is there a simillar software for the Desire S? Or will the Desire Sim-LUnlock Utility work with the S?
Desire S locked in Orange Romania
I have the same question. It is an app like Htc_Desire Unlock for Desire S?
Any link? If you are talking about htcphones method, it was not confirmed, yet.

What can you do with XTC clip? They're selling for £30ish, just wondering if it is worth the money getting one if I plan to tinker round some DSs?

Hello all,
Everyday I see new threads on the XTC clip...which clutter this forum
Rather than all individually creating a new post saying XTC-Clip needed here or here.. Please first read and then post in the already existing thread (see the first URL below) which is created in another forum and may well already contain your answer. You may also find the information below useful.
INFO:
The xtc device works on nearly all htc phones. Most phones come by default as S-ON (security on). Currently the xtc clip hardware device is the only method to make your phone S-OFF, this is the first stage to making your device root and being able to instal custom roms. People are currently working on creating a software method to achieve S-off but this is not yet possible.
Using the xtc device will invalidate the warranty of your phone and cannot be reversed, so be sure you fully understand what you are doing.
If you are still unsure as to what a XTC-Clip is, or what the terms S-ON, S-OFF or root mean then please try googling these things and reading before asking.

For further details on the XTC Clip then also see the Desire S related thread below:

Many Thanks, If you appreciate this post then press Thanks, Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
Moderator: any chance off making this a sticky?
nice post dude..
it's better to make s-off / s-on in one thread.
vote this thread for STICKY
But why is it that in old Desire which has an S-ON, can be rooted?
Now with the Desire S, it's impossible (for now). And the only redemption is this XTC Clip thingy.
Because htc in their wisdom choose to instal signed boot loaders

Sorry double post
Quick question regarding the xtc clip, my desire s was bought sim free so already unlocked for any network but still s on. If i go to a shop with an xtc clip and ask them to unlock my already unlocked phone will that make it s off? Or is the process with the xtc clip different?
this is very nice thread about s-off by l0st.prophet

There is no software method for the Wildfire S sold by Telstra. XTC clip is still needed.

i wouldn't use xtc clip if i were you. If you can, return it. The method is outdated now.

Please tell us what is up to date now? What method for network unlock htc phones? Cheers.
.:: DjKac ::.
Ah sorry. Yeah its probably the best way to do that. I was referring to S-OFF. However, sometimes networks unlock the phone for free

Hi!
Because of the dead links and the last update, I would like to aks if someone could write a guide on how to downgrade a branded Desire S. Is it possible to get OTA Updates afterwards by using the Gold Card?

AFAIK branded Desire S is not that easy (twice as difficult) to downgrade. And often times, it is not supported or not advised at all.
But I read somewhere that someone was able to downgrade his/her Desire S phone here on XDA. I suggest to search for it.

I think I already read through this thread but most of the links are already dead. Hope theri will be a possibillity in the future
I am new to the forum, I greet all.
I would ask how I can remove the brand from a HTC Chacha, and manually update the firmware to the latest update for HTC Chacha.
Thank you.
Afaik up to this point there are no free methods. You can either:
1. Buy and XTC clip and do the S-OFF and the unbranding.
2. Buy an unlock code via internet or something for 10$.

Oh sorry lol, I have miss-read. I thought what you meant was locked to a specific carrier.
If it's unlocked then you can flash any ROM you want.

Can you tell me how to do or some tutorials online, because HTC can not find anything to inspire me confidence.
You can find a lot of tutorials here, in the Dev section for example, under HTC unlock thread. There you will understand how to flash CWM, root and then install a custom ROM.
I don't understand what you mean by "because HTC can not find anything to inspire me confidence".
Hello
Since my Desire Z has touchscreen problems, I decided to look for a Desire S and came across a cheap one. The problem is that it is simlocked (Vodafone, Germany) I wanted to ask you if it is possible to unlock the device if I don't have a Vodafone simcard. Does this work?
I think it should work because I can access ADB without entering a pin code or something but I'm not sure...
Thanks in advance
anyone?

As far as I am aware, the only way to SIM unlock is still with the XTC-Clip the same way I did it over a year ago - although I will gladly be corrected if I'm wrong.

Really? You're gonna yell at me with red explanation marks when you haven't done your research and are clearly wrong? The HTC One X Endeavoru and the at&t One X Evita are completely different phones. Go to your own forum, and in future when someone who knows what they're talking about lets you know something, don't be so arrogant to think you know better than a veteran of the forum.

Do you have an AT&T or Rogers version One X?
No, you do not.
It says right in your screenshot you have the ENDEAVORU. This forum is for EVITA.
For ENDEAVORU, you need to post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-x
And why on earth did you create another XDA account to reply?
Thank you very much dude
I'm really so sorry
