Does anyone know if the Desire unlock software also works for the Desire S?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943726
Or if there is another free method of unlocking?
Best method is XTC Clip. Not free though.
If you want a free method, you can look here :

Desire S works with it, but you must have Windows.
Is there a guide on how to sim unlock using that software?
I don't know but I personnally tried to work with it and i wasn't able to s-off, sim-unlock my phone. So ... buy an XTC Clip. It's not that expensive.

Hi,how can I unlock my Desire S ..... I find lot of tutorials how to unlock Desire but nothing for desire S.....
??
Be more specific on the subject!
You want S-OFF, ROOT or UNLock bootloader?
Answer!
Official S-OFF is NOT possible EVER, I think!
Unofficial S-OFF is available... use 2nd pinned topic in this forum!
ROOT is possible after you S-OFF your phone and/or Unlock your bootloader officialy!
Unlock is comming officialy, DS is not on the list yet, but it will be eventually...
With official Unlock you get S-ON STILL but with bootloader unlocked which gives you right to root your phone!
So S-OFF and unlocked bootloader arent the same things? Then what is the relationship between them.
If by "unlock" you mean your phone is sim locked, then you going to have to use that same trick you used to obtain your phone, money.

Basically you need to pay the provider you obtained your phone from, to unlock your phone. It's NOT something you can do for free.
I just unlocked my desire s with a code from unlockfusion on eBay. I can recommend him if you're looking to buy a code.
The only way to SIM unlock Desire S is to pay...either for a code from various sites, to the operator or through XTC clip. Pick the one that suits you most. But note that if you unlock it via third party (site or XTC clip) your warranty is void
I try to bay code from 3 or 4 sites... and they send me same code, but when i type code its say wrong code,and phone is still locked...
sorry on bad english ...
Are you, by some chance, on Telenor Serbia? If yes, you can not unlock your phone via any unlock code bought online, because Telenor locks its phones on its own - not via HTC like most of provider.
Only way to unlock phone is to wait until the contract ends and then get code from Telenor for free or find service with XTC clip (but beware, this voids your warranty).
I used Revolutionary to S-Off. I allowed Revolutionary to install Clockwordmod as recovery. I then used One Click to root. Finally I flashed Virtuous ROM Affinity and it works very well. Just wished I had done it earlier. The ROM has Sense 3.5 and it very smooth.

This has nothing to do with the topic in this thread. Here it is discussed about SIM unloking, that is using the phone with a SIM from another carrier

Hi,
You can unlock your HTC 7 Surround using unlock codes. It is the safest and the simplest unlocking methods. Contact your service provider and get the unlock code from them. If they don't provide you with the code, you can get it from online sites. Prounlocking.com is where i unlocked my phone, they offered codes at affordable price with simple unlocking instructions!!

He's not talking about unlocking to use a different carrier sim. He's talking about developer unlock so he can side load apps.

Before I fork ou for a clip, I just wanted to check there weren't any other options.
I've tried 3 unlocking sites after seeing recomendations on here and none have been able to provide me with a SIM Unlock code.
I have also tried Rooting and S-Offing the phone, and installing a few unbranded ROMs, but the lock is still there.
Thanks in advance.
yes, you do. Currently, there is no way to sim unlock the Desire S with software, XTC Clip is your only option
If you're in the UK I've an XTC clip you can buy or borrow for a fee?
Too late, I just ordered one. Costing £34.
No worries! Happy unlocking!

I'm interested about XTC clip. What you can offer for me?
Hi, so I bought an HTC Desire S and it's locked to Orange UK. I S-OFFed and tried sieempi's method but it's still network locked. Is there any generator or tweak like the HTC Desire/Sensation to get the code? It's urgent as this is my new personal smartphone.
Thanks in advance

Urgent? No it's not. On Christmas day nothing is really urgent.
You can either ask your current network provider for the unlock code (may have to pay them) or get hold of an XTC-Clip (Buy, rent, shop ...) and definitely have to pay.
There is no software method for network unlock on the Desire S.
There's a xtc-clip page on xda with members that have access to them
This Christmas I've decided to put a mistletoe in my back pocket....so all the people I dont like can kiss my ass.

But there must be a unlock code somewhere in those mmcblk blocks, like on the One S, Desire (bravo) and the Sensation, why wouldn't there by any on the Desire S? HTC must have hidden it somewhere... Any guess?
Here's a guess: this phone is out for almost a couple of years now, and if the way to unlock it was so simple that a noob could guess it - I guess it would have been unlockable by now.
You can, of course, read and learn how SIM unlock is done on the other "sister" phones (G2/DZ/DHD/MT4G), and what's preventing DS from having the same treatment, and what's needed to make it work. But something tells me that you won't do that.
