Weird sim unlock - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Hi my fellow HOXsters
Just got my HOX today so am pretty pumped and syked for this.
Went on ebay and tried to buy an unlock code and i got the wirdest response from a seller here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123#ht_3332wt_1271
Your order for HTC = 35************ has processing failure.
Reason: Not Found
the phone is to new, if you don't have any other cellphone to unlock i just made a refund of you money let me know.

Sounds like your phone is really new, and the IMEI isn't in the relevant databases for unlocking yet.
That's just a guess.

Its manufacturer refurb. It can't be that new....sad about this

Anyone with an idea which cell unlocker I should try? I cannot be the only one in knee deep in this

I used cellunlocker.net
worked fine. Had an unlock code in under an hour.

i used cellunlocker.net too. Done in one hour

I've tried a few places, they all fail for me
Although I do have the newest batch (HT26) so that's probably why

How do you know which batch you have?

Just found a quick way to check. The serial number usually shows the batch number apparently. It is a ht25 batch...still affected by this problem?

I used
http://ebay.unlockfusion.net/ got my code in less then 10 mins. And it cost under 6 dollars

Can you confirm what batch it is. I already sent them an order about 10hours ago and they have not responded....
am thinking they don't have it either..

Just got a respinse from unlock_fusion. They claim that the phone is very new, manufacturer refurbished or stolen. I think its coz its manufacturer refurbished. Man, am feeling sooo low coz of this

Wow, that's some b.s.!!
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app

I am sooo disapointed. I have the most beautiful handset I have ever seen and the best I can do is just stare at it!!!!

Can the imei swap work? Just curious

After some research I found out that other people have the same problem. AT&T sometimes relocks the phone and an unlock code cannot be found on any site...scumbag at&t!!!!

I can answer this for you: as long as you are a royal customer or been with tmobile for more than 3 months, you are good to go. I bought my g2x off CL, and I had no problem asking for unlock code from them. Typically, you could request 2-3 unlock codes per a year for free. I requested 4 unlock codes last year from them, and they denied my last request.

It depends on YOUR account status, and not the phone itself nor the original owner. Easiest way is to call 611 and see if you're qualified for an unlock.

Weird. Thats the newest hardware with the oldest firmware. Either way it doesn't matter as there is a root for everything right now. Good thing you got the latest hardware though.
I'd like to go ahead and confirm my experience here too.
The first four characters of my serial number are "HT24". It's not as recent as the OP's, but I'd like to think it's relatively new.
At any rate, I received a warranty replacement with 1.73.
Moreover, it came with SuperCID 111111 and the "re-locked" identifier. This doesn't particularly perturb me as it saved me a few seconds when unlocking. Yeah, I ended up with someone's leftovers with some newer parts.
Battery life on the replacement is around 5.5 hours of screentime with 30% brightness and LTE enabled. I think refurb is preferable since it's cosmetically pristine and every part has been tested more stringently than a factory original.
It's odd that they aren't being re locked and cid reset. Is refurbishment done by AT&T or the manufacturer typically?

Typically, refurbishments are done by the manufacturer. AT&T just serves as an intermediate in the process that makes sure you have a phone as quick as possible. Once they receive our broken phones, they have the pleasure of doing what we did not want to do - deal with HTC.
If you had to deal with the manufacturer directly, you would be looking at two to three weeks for a replacement device.

HTC refurbs them and AT&T is the distributor for warranty exchanges. You're lucky though... AT&T usually doesn't take devices that were tampered with.

HTC seems to be very understanding. Unless it's bricked or something directly related to unlocking the bootloader I doubt they care. And legally they can't. It's like taking your car in for warranty repair on the engine and they void the warranty because you installed better brake pads.

I don't think I've heard of HTC turning away any devices that were bootloader unlocked. They're supportive of the power user.

[Q] Where did you buy your unlock code?

I've been browsing the web looking for a legitimate looking site but all of them look like scam sites to me.
Where did you get your unlock codes from? i would apreciate it deeply.
Search on eBay for unlock fusion
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.ca/viewi...0913546611&index=4&nav=SEARCH&nid=21100421040
This may not be your carriers but search for your carrier and you can find one for around 3-10 dollars and it comes within 15 minutes!

One would assume you bought it at a very cheap price, that should ring some bells
Regardless you bought a stolen phone from a obviously bad seller off the internet with no way of getting your money back
And you're asking us if we can help you make that stolen phone usable, what's to say you actually stole that phone? We don't know that

Obviously, thieves would try to call them and claim they "bought" a phone from somewhere and it was blacklisted. Even if what you are saying is true, you have no way of proving it. And AT&T has no obligation to make a phone work that wasn't purchased directly from them. So no, I doubt that would work.

That isn't remotely what he said. He said don't buy from unknown sources, especially using a transaction type where you have no method of recourse if the seller screws you.

Anyone try this battery case?

I'm interested to see if this works and how it looks on the device itself

It can't be compatible with both the X and XL at the same time. I suspect it's probably the one NOT compatible with our XL =(

Looking to buy one, this post has the same pic but it says it works with "HTC One X XL" whatever that means, so, does that mean it would fit?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3200mAh-Cha...S_Cell_Phone_PDA_Chargers&hash=item460e8ca7cb
It almost certainly means they just don't know and it won't fit when you get it.
Don't buy it won't work. I speak from personal experience. I bought one. The fit is close, but the pogo pins just don't line up to provide power.

No idea. Tempted to buy it with bounty money and take one for the team if it doesn't fit, though.
Can anyone find one of these that ships from the US, so we don't have to wait 6 to 8 weeks to find out if it's legit?
I didn't notice this before. In pic number 3 on this page I noticed that they had an AT&T version. I am assuming that this means that this will work for our phones, maybe, hopefully.

Just purchased one. Will let everyone know how it goes when it arrives.
It's coming via Singapore Post, so it'll take up to 26 days.
