I think if you give Vodafone a ring they'll provide an unlock code, no?

There is no software option for this (atm)... Look for somebody with an XTC Clip nearby! This will remove Simlock and S-Off your device...
There's a list of XTC Clip owners around in the forum, but I can't find it right now, sorry!

Hello,
My location is in the Netherlands and i want to unlock a HTC Tattoo with a Vodafone simlock on it. Can this be done and how? Please advise.
Thanks a lot,
Mark
Don't get in trouble!
Somtimes it is easier spending 15 Eruros and 30 minutes than trying magic.
Just one advice. The process erase the data, so remember to do a NAND BackUp before.
I did it before changing from Vodafone to Simyo.
Now i have got a free Tattoo and also changed the ROM.
You can pm me.
I can get the code for you

Hi rhcp0112345,
I have a Tattoo, rooted and running the last Cyanogenmod 7 great !
I need to unlock it to host a SIM different than ORANGE spain. I've been surfing here and there and no one seems to have the "holy grail" method or tutorial for this terminal. I saw your post and I decided to give you a try. How should I PM you ?
Thx

I have recently bought a desire s and an xtc clip pay as you go. I followed instructions and everything completed ok.
Im now s-off and debranded and rooted
But the sim unlock did not work, im still locked to orange uk.
If anyone has had any experience with xtc clips i would appreciate it. I dont want to buy another credit for it to fail again
Thanks again

Hi thanks for reply i bought xtc clip from ebay seller fonefunshop but they have there own site aswell.
Ive got generic htc rom on no help.

I do not think the xtc clip does a sim unlock. Debranded ROMs have nothing to do with carrier locks I'm afraid.
XTC clip usually fully unlock the phone, including simlock.
For those wanting to have a look on the PAYG clip, check here : fonefunshop.co.uk/cable_picker/96007_XTC_Clip_PAYG_(Pay_As_You_Go_-_Red_XTC_Clip).html

I saw their website, and seems that they are selling Payg without debranding option and you need to pay extra fee to get that.
that's what I understand from website
contact them to be sure
Hi what you do is unlock using the xtc clip and then on the goldcard created u put a generic htc image that u can extract from exe of this forum and then enter bootloader again with card in and the bootloader will then initiate the "upgrade" to generic software for you.
If u not sure theres a guide in the desire s forums.
Ive done it this way and im running generic software

Guys, this thread is from June and already dead.
Swifted from my Desire S far away from my PC
Hallo,
Is there any way to remove the simlock without buying an unlock code?
Some providers will give you the unlock code if you tell them you are traveling out of the country with your device.
T-Mobile USA does this. It's worth asking.

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.
