is it possible to call at&t and get an unlock code for the inspire 4g?
If you were planning on rooting to install custom roms you will also unlock your phone. No need to call at&t.

No you have to buy one, or root. The phone is still under warranty so att will not give you the unlock code.
Also please post on the proper section q&a

thanks for the info dtorrez.. i'm thinking about buying the inspire 4g on ebay. then i plan on installing virtuous unity. so, i guess by installing virtuous unity the phone gets rooted... so, no need to get an unlock code from at&t. thanks!
If only it were that easy... Unfortunately you have to root before installing a rom but it's not really that difficult if you read and do your research. Read this and you'll be ready when you get your Inspire.

Not exactly. First you root your phone by using one of the available hack kits, (such as attn1's hack kit) and then you will be able to install whichever custom rom you wish. (As dtorrez said. I was busy doing other things and did not submit reply fast enough so he beat me to it.) As long as you understand the procedure correctly.
How about search and read the forums before asking the same question that 100k others have asked. Not to be a **** but damn do ur research and stickies

Hello,
I have a Rogers o3d, and it seems to ship with some Asian languages... I see three listed in the settings menu, but I'm afraid I couldn't tell you which ones they are

may i ask u another question?
is there a rogers logo when the phone boots up? thx
also can i set it to be 2g only? because i dont have a 3g plan
if there is a rogers logo when the phone boots up, is it possible to remove it?
Hello again
Yeah it has the red Rogers splash screen. You could debrand it via the methods described in the development forum.
I'm pretty sure any android can do 2g only, this one can anyway.
Cheers

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.

Did you try this guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16932841

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

as far as i know if you S-OFF your device and supercid then you can install whatever rom you like
thanks for the reply.
i saw a thread before, though i cannot find it now, and based on that thread, there is a different way to flash roms to at&t sensation phones.
i am physically located in the philippines and i havent tried international phones ever since, i always use the local ones.

Hi there, I am T-Mobile sensation 4g. I can confirm that yes as long as you are S-off you can flash any Rom to your sensation you like. Just make sure you have the correct firmware for the Rom you are wanting to run. Rule of thumb is ICS roms run on android 3.32 or 3.33. Firmware. Very important. 3.33 is the newest firmware but most ics roms run on both . As long as your soff and have the correct firmware your good to go. I highly recommend you using 4ext recovery also. It's a easy to use recovery that most of us use . Some roms actually are not booting unless 4 ext is installed. It's extremely easy to use and you will love it. It makes flashing a breeze. Remember before you flash to always do a nandroid backup . This is for your protection. If you have an issue you can easily restore your backup. Hope this information has helped you some. Don't worry about T-Mobile. I enjoy any Rom I want whenever I want to flash without any issues. Best wishes !
sent from HTC sensation, soff, 3.33 firmware, viper Rom, sense 4.1, mugen battery. please press thanks if I helped in anyway.
thanks for that information.
if ever this would be my first htc unit. what are the things that i need to consider to prevent softbrick/hardbrick? or loosing imei? i appreciate using ext4 was already mentioned. i have a friend with galaxy s, he wiped ext4 and it cause him a bootloop and its very dificult to fix. as we tried to use odin and got no luck.

edit:
now i got my sensation,
its already using a custom rom and custom kernel. im checking if there is clockwork recovery app or not, it appears that there is none,
how can i check if it's s-off already, unlocked bootloader, with supercid?

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 :/
