Straight Talk? Does your card use TMo or AT&T towers?
Att
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Then that would be why. AT&T phones don't need to be unlocked in order to use Straight Talk SIMs going through AT&T towers.
That's why it works. Straight Talk uses att network. So no unlock needed.

I wouldn't feel too stupid, SIM locks don't always allow MVNOs that run on the same carrier to work. Some of them look at the carrier ID on the SIM card and refuse to work if it doesn't exactly match the carrier they're locked to.

Hey guys just a quick question. I tried searching but could not it find the answer.
Okay so in the past, like the mytouch 4G and the G2 once your Supercid you got full sim unlock. Is that the case with our att HTC One X as well? I don't have a foreign sim to try it out. My one X is unlocked with Supercid. Thanks to whoever who can answer this for me.

I don't believe it is the case. No one has reported it as such.
SuperCID and SIM unlock are not related, at least not in the way you want.
I had the G2 also (Desire Z actually, but same phone) and used gfree to get SuperCID, S-Off and SIM unlock. They just all happened to be packaged together, but I believe used different processes to unlock each.

Unlock costs $6 in Ebay for at&t one x if that's what you need.

Call Att, tell them you will be travelling internationally soon and you need your unlock code. If you have been a customer for a while and your account is in good standing they will provide the code for free. I have done it several times over the years, once even for a customers phone that was not even on my account.

I'm thinking of canceling my account with AT&T and using straight talk or a different MVNO but I have a few questions.
Will I still get AT&T updates? If not, will using straight talk prevent me from using any AT&T based roms or mods?
Will I lose LTE support? I don't have LTE in my area yet but it's supposed to be here in 2013.
Is anyone using a MVNO with their AT&T One X? If so, how's everything working? What's the best one to use?
I'll probably lose my warranty through AT&T but will HTC still cover the phone?

1) I don't think you'll get OTA updates, but I could be wrong. And obviously you can use AT&T roms, they're built for the phone.
2) Obviously, unless the MNVO you are changing to is allowed to use LTE, which is unlikely.
3) Using T-Mobile so don't know.
4) Yes they will.

No AT&T update, but you'll be able to use it with any ROM (as long as it doesn't require a SIM unlock, which you will have to do yourself).
You will get LTE support if the MVNO is an AT&T reseller and has LTE in your area. Though, afaik, there isn't any MVNO that offers LTE, maybe HSPA+. You can try Straighttalk or H2OWireless.
If you've been paying monthly for AT&T mobile warranty, then yes you will lose that, but HTC will still cover the phone for the limited period.

You called Sprint for the unlock code for your AT&T phone? That doesn't make any sense. Sprint is a CDMA carrier, CDMA phones don't have SIM cards (and therefore dont' have SIM unlock codes) and they also don't even carry the One X anyway. Verizon is also a CDMA carrier, and your GSM One X would not have worked on Verizon for that guy.
If the paid SIM unlock code did not work, that vendor should give you a refund. People have had good luck with cellunlocker.net.
But keep in mind that unlocking the SIM will not make the phone work on Sprint or Verizon. It will only work on AT&T and T-Mobile (and associated carriers like Straight Talk, that use AT&T/T-Mobs networks), as they are the only major GSM carriers in the US. And on T-Mob, the phone will only get EDGE data speed in most areas, due to the phone not being compatible with T-Mobs 3G/4G network.
Att is gsm sprint and Verizon are completely different this phone will not work on those two providers

Looked at here and seem lots of people failed to unlock the sim lock?

and, after it's unlock, I just have to unlock also BootLoader from hasoon2000 and it's voila, the custom rom!?

Rogers phones are apparently difficult to get codes for. But any decent unlocking service should tell you if it's possible before charging you

Cause I'm buying one from eBay, and they're mostly from AT&T
so it would be pretty inconvenient if I can't get it unlocked to work on Fido...

Okay so I bought a AT&T htc one x. I rooted the phone. Unlocked the boot loader. Now on rebel rom. I put my tmobile SIM card in the phone and it gives me no reception. At all. And says no service. I went to the settings and mobile data, than did network operators. Did select automatically. And says "unable to connect to network at this time, please try again." So than I did search networks. All it pulls up is AT&T and US. So I got curious and tried us and it had no positive return. Now I need help as I seriously just got this phone yesterday and it sucks its just sitting here now. And no I have no phone. Any help would be appreciated.
did you SIM unlock it?
I SIM unlocked mine, and got no reception, but I didn't have a chance to change APNs and such.

Yeah I bought the sim unlock code prior to rooting with success on stock sense but still never had reception.
Update: I disassembled the phone to check the cables to see if any were loose or damaged and to find out that ALL antenna cables are in tact in good shape, connected perfectly and everything, so I know that this is a issue within the software of the phone. I did use an unlock code on the stock os and when I didn't get reception than is when I rooted the phone with still no change. Any help is appreciated thank you!
You still haven't mentioned if you changed your APN settings.
Same thing happened with me last night, but on an iPhone. Just won't get service no matter what SIM I put in.

What this person said....you have to change apn settings, also did you trim your tmoblie SIM card down to make it fit? Technically if apn if changed and you have a working tmobile SIM it shouldn't be possible to pick up att. Also did you try using it it case icons are saying att but signal is tmobile. You should be able to check what band you are on to verify.....good luck on your quest

It really wasn't what I was hoping. But it sucks they do that but they do what they gotta do. I'm just sol on this phone. Taking a $200 loss. But I think I may just part the phone out considering the screen is brand new and the parts are pricey now days. Well. Not to sure what I'm gonna do with it yet actually. But hopefully something beneficial.
