I am a complete noob and this is my first ever post on XDA. I have searched the forums but unable to find it. So here are some of my queries.
I am using at&t one x, sim unlocked and I am using it in Pakistan with Waridtel. Now when I check for updates in at&t software update, it says service unavailable (because I m not using at&t I guess). So does this mean I will not be able to update it unless I put at&t sim in it?
The other query is all the methods which I searched including one click method and manual ones have a step where one has to check for update. But as I cant have it because it says service unavailable, does this mean I will not be able to root unless I put at&t sim in it?
Sorry for being so dumb again but help will be highly appreciated. I have attached couple of scrrenshots of firmware and baseband etc.
Regards,
Remove the sim card and try again using wifi. That worked for someone in Japan. Just remember not to accept the update. There are instructions for how to proceed.

I've seen more than a few people post that that screwed their phones over and that the recommended way was to call tmo so that they unlock it
ok...... so what can i do now im only able to use it with att at this moment.
so the HTC J ISW13HT was released in Japan 10 days ago, and I'm eager to get my hands on it. Only I am not in Japan.
Are there any people in Japan here on the forums that can answer some questions for me?
Is the phone locked to au? And does the phone in fact support GSM sim card at all? I know it has a card slot but since au is CDMA I wonder if the phone accepts sim cards (it has GSM functionality).
cheers

Hmm, I suppose when I get my hands on one, I'll be able to answer this question. I'll try to stop by an au shop to poke around one of their display models.
I'm assuming the phone is locked to au, though.
nice, thanks. Does au sell phones without contract at all?

I think you can purchase the phone outright but to get it unlocked you'll have to pay for the unlocking fee which is about ¥3000. Even then, I dunno if it has a removable sim card

Any more info?
It's been about a month now since this was posted, any new info?
I live in Japan and have the phone, but can't find much info for Root yet (in English at least) or Sim Unlock if it's possible or not.

Have you downloaded the ruu for it?
If you get that you can probably add su and busy box to it and maybe look at the one s threads for a root method

It does support GSM/CDMA/WCDMA/WiMAX
But the GSM/WCDMA function seemed to be locked by AU.
You could not use GSM/Wcdma network when you insert a GSM/Wcdma Usim.
I have this phone, unlocked the bootloader, root, but can't make sim free.
I can't post links, only after 10 posts.
I have translated scripts for one click root.
Does anyone know sim unlock is possible for this phone?
Now the J is also in the market of HK and Taiwan. Hope someone can cook ROM for us.

Are the HK and Taiwan versions of J also simlocked?
I made ROM for J based on MIUI for One S. But I still can't unlock simlock.(
Taiwan versions of J does not have simlocked.

Anyone can translate this into English? Seems a fair amount of info in Japanese, but nearly nothing in English... Google translate works very poorly from Japanese, don't really trust it for this.
Also, once you've flashed the radio from the Taiwan version, does it still work on AU? I don't want to change carrier to Docomo/Softbank, but I want to use local sim cards when I travel.
So whats the steps to unlock this little guy?
Hello everyone!
I'm writing for help from the experts. I don't know if this had been answered somewhere else but i looked all over the place and i didn't find anything for this phone.
After trying and trying for a few days now, i have not been able to unlock my verizon SGS3 so that i can use it with other sim cards.
I currently have it running on JB 4.1.2 it is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked thanks to the EZ- Unlock technique.
But when i put in a non verizon sim it says "sorry, this SIM is not supported. please....."
Can it be done ?
Thanks in advance
BTW: i've tryed the "galaxsim", and "Sim unlock" by chainfire as well as all the other similar apps i could find on the playstore but they have not worked for me.

Verizon S3 is sim unlocked for GSM, but not sure about the cdma. You can use it with t-mobile, att etc. There is a thread in android development forum about how to setup s3 as global phone. Try that one if you are using gsm.
Thanks doesn't hurt....

Hey !
Thank you so much for responding. I am trying to use it on a gsm network but it wont register, that's why i figured maybe its locked somehow. Also because of the message in the top that says non-verizon sim, it says sorry this sim card is not supported etc..
Where can i find the thread you mentioned?
Thanks again.

Ok so i worked on it till very late last night, and was able to do everything in the thread. My phone now shows the network apn in the apn list in the settings and i was able to get rid of the non-verizon sim message that poped up at startup.
But my phone still won't register on any network, I've tried to different sim cards and tried in global settings as well as gsm/utms auto or manual but it wont register onto a network.
What can i do ? Is it locked by Verizon or something ? Should i flash a different rom ?
Thanks for your invaluable help, i really appreciate it!
Have you tried using phoneinfo? Try using the phone info app to select preferred network type by going into device information. Find link below to the app. Try with different network type
http://uppit.com/5eua0rken6jx/myc.phone.PhoneInfo-1.apk
If this doesn't work then try with lte sim card.
Thanks doesn't hurt....
Hi guys,
so I have a HTC one M8 verizon but want to use it with another company. Once I put the sim card on I'm able to use wifi and make and recieve phone calls but not to use the internet. It's says there's no connection. I bought it second hand and it supposed to be unlocked.
It has android 5.0.1. so it's not easy to S-off.
Please help

What carrier? Did you change the APN to your carriers? If not, that's your problem.

Yeah already try that. I live in Chile so I have a foreing carrier.
I think it has something to do with being a verizon phone in a different country.
There still no way to root my phone with android 5.0.1 ?

Good point. Although, donation based (optional) not free. I don't remember connecting with you!? Also the software I use only connects the USB drivers remotely. The worst I could do was connect to the Webcam and spy on someone. However they can see the devices I'm connected to and 'lock' any they want. I don't blame you for being sceptical. But how about NOT judging a book by it's cover? Contact me if you require unlock. Thanks
i can deffinitly vouch for this guy he has always helped when i needed it on hangout
I can vouch for Stifilz as well. He successfully unlocked my SIMLOCKED Sprint A9. Working great on T-Mobile with band 4 LTE!

I already have unlock code but my A9 not accept it.... samwhere read to unlock procedure need all stock system+boot+recovery. Try to flash RUU- no luck again. Not planning flash s-off, but think only flashing unlocked att ruu after s-off could solve my problems. Maybe IMEI change and new unlock code will help.
