Okay, so. Rogers One XL and AT&T One X are basically the same device right? Same essentially all the way through? Would it be super farfetched to think that if one were to take the file that is modified by the HTCdev unlock for the Rogers One XL, and push it to the AT&T One X, that it would unlock it? I'm sure there's something making this completely illogical and impossible but I figured maybe I'd mention it, though I'm sure it's been thought of.
Unless I'm mistaken your unlock is directly related to your phone's iemi number.
I had a feeling that would be the case.

No sir.. the unlock code is unique to each device :-\
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium
I've proposed this several times in the last week or so and nobody has paid attention. I've yet to hear somebody say, for certain, what the unlock code is based on and I'm sure that we haven't fully investigated whether the code is really unique or whether that's just what we have been led to believe.
What we should do is start making a table of numbers (IMEIs, Device ID Tokens, Serial Numbers, Unlock Codes, etc) to see if a pattern emerges. Even if it is based on IMEI numbers, if we figure out how the number is arrived at (could it be as easy as md5(IMEI) or something???), we may be able to bypass HTCDev.

If I was a betting man I'd say the code is heavily encrypted.
Maybe HTC made it simple and easy for us to crack on purpose because they embrace the android community and despise AT&T as much as we do... Never know till you try.

One idea that I've had bouncing around is using the onboard storage as a virtual goldcard. Use it to load a phone image that has unlocked bootloader. I have no idea if such a thing is even possible

But the gold card needs to be separate from the actual storage and be able to be mounted and unmounted at will like a true gold card I would think]

Depending on how they encrypted it... it might not be so hard to work around though.
That said - it's probably public key encryption, with the phone having one half of it.
We really should get a couple examples of the inputs and outputs of HTCDev to look at though - you never know! People smarter than me may be able to deduce a pattern.

Any way to sim unlock the desire s for free?
Its possible on both desire and desire hd, and I don't think alpharevx does it alone.
Have you been here?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943726
S-off has nothing to do with sim lock.
Ah right, thought s-off meant sim unlock as well.
Does that desire tool work for the desire s? Has anyone tested that? Don't want to brick my phone or anything!
Im in the same boat! The thread seems to specify it is only for the htc desire, however I have not read the whole thing...

The problem with these unlocking sites is that they need an awful lot of information about your phone in order to give you the correct code. Unfortunately all of this information is a gift to the less scrupulous who will do anything to get hold of this information in order to clone your nice shiny new smart phone.
Beware!

They'll unlock the bootloader to the evo 3d and sensation but not the tbolt. Their unlocking tool will require you to provide them with your device information to void your warranty. Only good I see is developers might be able to use the tool to unlock other devices like the tbolt and future devices without having to provide htc with any of your phones information.

On top of that from what I have been reading it is somewhat limiting when compared to s-off. No hboot, radio, or splash1 flashing. Last I heard kernels had to be fastbooted on. There is probably more I don't know about. Voids your warranty and you can't even switch around to find what radio works best for you. Unlocked my a$$!!

Very surprised to see this method in sensation. Cos to my understanding the SIM unlock is at network level rather than something you can alter on the phone. So I was wrong.
Hope the same method can be ported to one s in the future.
By the way, I know there are lots of website charges 10 or 20 pounds to SIM unlock devices, they send you an email with unlock code back short after payment is received. Just wondering if anyone had tried any website which does this for one s? Don't mind pay a small money just to avoid rooting.

okay so by now I have learned that it might not just be htcs fault but is most likely atts fault that were not getting the unlocked boot loader or the proper sources to be released
Why is att doing this? There's nothing positive for them or HTC in doing this
Is there anything we can do, does any one have connections with people in bigger companies that make this very public and sound like the huge issue that it is
Is there any else that we can do besides for that?
I think it would just be a good idea to brainstorm on wht to do to fix this dilemma

Vote with your dollars cancel service and tell them why.
Source has been released except for the most recent updates. Those will be released eventually.
I doubt AT&T is going to budge on the locked bootloader because the number of people who really care probably represent about 1% of their HOX customers.
If you're intent on pushing, the place to start would be making a stink on AT&T's social media pages.
Besides... we have unlocked bootloaders and root I'd love to go to Corporate AT&T and get to the guy who decides this stuff and show them my phone and tell them they can't stop us. There's ways around everything.

If you guys really want to try, just go to small claims courts claiming that you were convinced that you had the ability to unlock the bootloader, and use Peter Chou's statement on unlocking bootloaders as evidence, and then say that you couldn't unlock it. If you lose, nothing happens to you. If you win, and a lot of other people win, AT&T is going to be bleeding money.

I hear ya man. ****, I should have got an iPhone. At least I could pester Siri about her hot sister or ask advice on hiding bodies. Even iPhones are having better luck getting unlocked.
Regardless, I do love this phone. Probably the best phone since the Nexus One.
Like you said though, just a matter of time, and, will we have bootloader unlock access? I'm going to be hopeful. For anyone who buys their device with 2.20 loaded, it would really suck to not be able to at least achieve root.

Hey guys...
I was unfortunate enough to come across some aroma/twrp bug while updating my kernel and now my phone is bricked. Oh well, life happens. I am going to have to send it in for JTAG repair. I found that mobiletechvideos.com does JTAG repair for $60 so that's not all terrible. Do any of you have experience with them? Is there service good? From what I can tell they look legit..
On their website they also also have numerous "addons" you can choose for your order such as "ROM/Root upgrade service" and "S-off". Now, does that mean that once I get the phone back it will be in a state where I cannot root the device? I have my old bootloader unlock code from before... would that work to root the phone after this procedure is performed? It is my understanding that they (mobile tech videos) modify whatever image they push to your phone to include your IMEI information. Would that give me troubles if I tried to unlock the phone using my old unlock code?
Perhaps I should email them directly.
Anyway, what are your thoughts?
I would ask them, but I believe they can set things up however you want. I recall seeing one person saying they got it back s-off, etc.

But there are distributers on this side. Madusa riff boxes will do the same thing. The JTag site has a list of suppliers that sell riff boxes in the US. Since more devices are becoming usb supported, the need for soldering is limited to certain devices.
