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.

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

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

HTC is releasing their own version of the unlocker. I'm a bit confused of the difference between the two. Which will be better?

Revolutionary is better for sure. Do you want to give HTC record of your unlock and grounds to automatically deny your warranty claim for clear hardware issues? I sure don't. I'd rather they have no idea that I'm unlocked.

Does Revolutionary have the ability to relock the bootloader? Because once you unlock it your warranty is void no matter what. So this would be a major factor in determining which way to go. I would like to know as I just purchased my sensation yesterday.
Now on a side note I rooted my N1 just after it released. It had some hardware issues I sent it in under warranty and had no issues concerning the warranty and being unlocked. I would like to see what parts of the warranty void upon unlocking via HTCs method. If someone can post a link I would be interested to read up on this.

I would say Revolutionary!
hTC updates - take ages..by the time they come out with any essentials updates, i had changed to another device.
Revolutionary - almost every single day. They listen to our feedbacks n always trying to improve for the community...
Therefore, Revolutionary FTW!

I agree with everyone the revolution is better in every way.
Plus if it gets bricked for HTC its voided and they KNOW it
but for revolution they wont know so if its bricked just drown it or back over it and its unvoided

While Revolutionary doesn't per se, you can do it by simply flashing your stock ROM and switch secuflag back to 3 which will relock you to S-On. Details are in this sticky, oh and the cool thing is if you flash the stock RUU back your bootloader just says PVT Ship S-Off so it looks as if you got your Sensation that way haha
That is exactly what I did. s-off my device via revolutionary method then rooted and super CID. I then re-flashed stock ruu back and now I have stock s-off but with super CID. I'll probably changed it back to Asian CID just for software updates. If that is how software updates check for proper version updates.
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.
A line is being canceled from my tmobile account. They said we need to be on the phone with them, Do i need to switch back to factory settings or does it really matter? When they switch my sims to unlock... Does it require my phone to be on factory settings or can i just keep my phone s-off and coredroid on my phone?
Not sure your question is clear Sims are specific to supplier but will work on any unlocked phone......

I have tmobile and they're willing to unlock my phone so that i can use other carriers sims with my sensation.. However i have it unlocked and coredroid rom on it.. Do i need to go back to factory rom or can i leave it as it is for them to unlock my phone for other sims...?
Have you tried another sim my guess is you are aleady unlocked...
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
yes.. tried a att... doesnt work... Tmobile said they're going to unlock it for me.. My question is do i need to be on factory rom or is it okay to leave it on coredroid rom.. Can they access my phone and unlock it even though im unlocked and on a custom rom?
Well tell them to try nothing to loose - I still believe its a matter of u need the apn - access point name - settings for new sim / provider. When you 1st boot a Rom it as you to select from list...

All you need is the unlock code. It doesn't matter what Rom you're running.

I have a HTC Design 4G. I unlocked it with the HTCDEV. So now its unlocked. But I'd like to take it to Virgin Mobile, but you have to have their software on your phone. Does anyone know how I can install/Where I can find, the Virgin Mobile software so I can get this thing up and going? It SHOULD be the same network. But I'm new the Android Modding I was a iPhone Mod'r for a few years, but androids are an entirely different ball game.
I have an HTC dev unlocked design. Its still
s-on which means security on. I still don't have root for it. There is root for the non sprint design. So until its s-off I don't think u can get the msl code to change carriers. If I'm wrong please help(devs) me. :banghead:

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 :/
