how to sim unlock sensation 4g t-mobile - HTC Sensation

hi how to sim unlock to use on any gsm can make it with s-off?

follow the sticky guide fit alpharev s-off in the dev section. Then get super cid using the same guide.
Now you can use any sim card.

I thought super CID was only to flash other regions Roms?
It's very easy to do with Tmobile, though. Just request the unlock code. I requested one and got it in less than 24 hours.

He's right. Super CID doesn't give you SIM unlock. Only gets your access to a ROM from another region.

Wouldn't just flashing a custom ROM already make your phone unlocked?

so can unlock it for free through s-off or any way

No. SIM unlock is a subsidy lock. Super CID unlocks the compatibility of ROM from another region. They're different locks.

If you have T-Mobile, call customer service and request a sim unlock code and tell them you need it to travel abroad.

This works but your account must be in good standing and you have to have been a customer for a while or they just wont give it to you. Other than that, I have done it a bunch of times

Follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233513

Go read post number 3 of the "[Guide] to Installing S-off, Unlocking, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on" thread. It gives you all the info you need to SIM unlock your device. And please next time use Search, notice the thread title has unlock in it so it is easy to find using the XDA search engine, not to mention it is a sticky thread in the development forum.

[Q] Sim Unlock Code

Hello,
how can I sim unlock htc sensation. It is locked to Telenor Montenegro.
Is it possible to unlock it free without losing warrany? If not where can I buy unlock code with credit card ?
you can root and s-off to get free unlock, and once you have it you can flash RUU to put everything back and then use unlock code
That procedure is hard for me
If I can buy that code I will do that. I just need site for that. I tried on globalunlock.com but their codes only work for phones in USA,CA and UK.
My phone is s off but no sim unlock code here... I thought only t mobile can do that for me, being their my provider.

Did you try this guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16932841

For that I need to root my phone. If I root my phone I will lose warranty.
GUIDE 1 is very easy but my warranty is problem. I will do this guide if there is guide to unroot phone ?
Call your phone operator ask them to give you unlock code for your phone tell them you travel for business. Or search online paid unlock code.

Yea your provider should give u the unlock code and have it emailed to you within 72 hrs. Normally you will recieve an email the next day. I remember seeing a write up using terminal emulator to get your unlock code. Thats how i got mine. Not sure where the write up is though.

I called my provider but they said that they can't do that and that I must go in mobile phone servis and unlock it.
I called local servis, 20 EUR is unlocking for sensation and they do that with box tool.
Search htc sensation sim unlock using terminal emulator. Im sure u will find it. Its a very each procedure

I find that guide but for that I need to root my phone. I will do that but when I unlock I need to unroot my phone. So I need guide for that - to unroot when I finish unlocking.
Why do u need to unroot it?
Sent from my MIUI.us Sensation 4G using XDA App
Because I have warranty and maybe one day I will need to send my phone to repair
Refresh.1.2.3.
Yea warranty. They dont care if the phone is rooted. If theres no physical damage then you are fine
Sent from my MIUI.us Sensation 4G using XDA App
Well they care. My previous phone HTC Desire S has been bricked. Phone was s-off and rooted. I sent my phone to warranty repair but they refused to repair phone because of s-off and root. Problem was in fired emmc chip so they need to replace mainboard which cost 200 EUR.
Oh tmobile doesnt care

If the phone is rooted, then the most probable is that is already sim unlock. Use this to check (fifth bullet):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD
Take into consideration that not all carriers are supported with sim unlock...
There's places you can take it to around your area I'm sure...

[Q] Why are Sim Locked for some carriers but unlocked for others

Hello,
I have an HTC Sensation 4g that was originally from Tmobile. I rooted it and also unlocked the phone to use on other networks. I verified this by using other prepaid carriers in the U.S and also in Mexico. But now i have an issue I tried a company called Moviestar in Mexico. I keep getting a message saying SIM LOCKED. Why is this?
Also does anyone know how asking for unlock code work from tmobile. I also have service with them with a different sensation can I call them and give them the IMIE for the sensation I want unlocked? Not sure if you have to be using the sensation while asking for the code.
I also found this to change APN but dont the sim cards change this automatically?

Simply ask T-Mobile for the unlock code. They will give it to you. I haven't asked for this device yet but asked for my other device and they gave me the code without any problems. Just tell them you will be traveling and want the code. It shouldn't be a problem. They did it for me before without any issues. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes

Maybe T-Mobile, but I am on Vodafone and they won't give it to me for some reason. HTC have put a guide how to SOFF your phone, but that didn't worked for me. I only have the "wire trick" left to try, but some users report broken phones after so... I hear people write mails to HTC and they give them the unlock codes Anyone had a successful feedback on the issue?

HTC dev unlock method works fine.. just follow procedure from HTC page
If your bootloader is 1.2xx , jb method of soff is only option...
What u mean broken phone after wire trick???.,.,
If u stuck on jb screen after many attempt of wire trick , then u simply remove temp root and phone will back to Android

To verify, if I have S-OFF'd my Sensation, then I should be able to use a SIM on another carrier without having to call my carrier (T-Mobile) to get an unlock code. Right?
Thank you.

No, you're missing 1 step.
S-Off and Sim Unlock are two different things.
But if you have S-Off and Root access you can figure out your own Sim Unlock code quickly and easily.
See here for instructions...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
Then once you have that unlock code, when you put in a sim from another carrier it will prompt you for the code and you simply type it in.
Skipjacks is right I was trying to find that thread wasnt fast enough lol. Cedyathome follow that guide and it should work for most carriers.

If you know someone on TMO network, he may be able to request a unlock code for your phone.

If you are s-off then you need to flash gingerbread firmware in order for the diag file to work and give sim unlock

i see...funny it never mentioned that in that post/forum
I believe that thread was made before ice cream sandwich came and the new partitions it brought. I assume most of the people who ever used the thread had a sensation from gingerbread, or bought one that came with gingerbread and sim unlocked before the jump to ics. so it doesnt really come up :/
once you are s-off you can flash back to gingerbread easily enough though. make back up of your rom, then visit the firmware thread and download the revolutionary firmware. also download your current firmware. place revolutionary firmware onto the sdcard and let it flash from the bootloder. then follow the sim unlock guide. after that works then flash back to ics using the firmware your phone had. either .32 or .33
if your rom doesnt boot after its all done then boot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache.
Thanks for the help but I ended up just downgrading in a way to the Samsung Galaxy S 4G ...cause T-Mobile ended up blacklisting my sensation :/
