Yawn... HTCDev does not unlock the SIM card. It unlocks the bootloader. When you put in a new card, don't expect it to magically work! There is a SIM Unlock thread in Android Development. But HTCDev doesn't unlock the SIM! That would also be illegal on HTC's part if it unlocked the phones network.

This is the thread you should read about SIM unlock.
The good news is that unlocking your bootloader is required, since you need to root your phone before you can do the SIM unlock. So your efforts were not in vain!

Network unlocking, like my phone is locked on one network, can't use others etc.
Not possible my friend. unless you contact your carrier.
I'm curious to know why there is no method besides buying codes to unlock.
I have spent hours on here reading and looking.. Everything seems to be outdated or questionable. I'm sorry if this is something I should of been able to find. I've looked.. Just send me to a link if you need to.
Questions:
If I root the phone will it be carrier unlocked?
If not.. What do I need to do to get it carrier unlocked?
What I've already done.
Unlocked the boot loader with HTCDEV.
HTC seems to be more so complicated than most. Sorry.
Neither rooting nor unlocking the bootloader will unlock the SIM card. That needs to be done separately. I've never used it, but I think AAHK2 does unlock the SIM.

It's impossible to unlock...
Is it simlocked? If it's simlocked to some network you are unable to unlock the bootloader. If you unlock the phone, you will be able to unlock the bootloader

I had several phones that were sim locked and I was unable to unlock the bootloader. After sim unlocking them I was able to unlock the bootloader. The same goes for the Xperia M2, it was locked on T-Mobile MK, after unlocking the phone I was able to unlock the bootloader.

So, I assume that if I flash a debranded firmware from Xperia M2 (My cellphone can't unlock Bootloader about the "[x]Newtork 10" is locked in SimLock) may unlock the bootloader without any troubles? Is that so? Or I'm mistaken?
If I'm correct, that'd be amazing, I'd like use other ways to personalize my phone but I can't 'cause of the stupid Bootloader xDD.
Thanks!

Unfornately yes it's true how DavidMKD sayd before you need to unlock you device before unlocking the bootloader i asked few friends and XDA members and they confirmed too so , unlock the phone than you can unlock the bootloader

Debranding basically removes all the bloatware that slow your phone down. You can't sim unlock with debranding, only with special code provided by some other sim unlock sites/ebay

Exactly that. Try to enter it correctly because there is a limit on how many times you can enter to network unlock code. If it doesn't work on KitKat, downgrade it to 4.3 and enter the code. I had similar problem where I was unable to unlock on KK but on 4.3 worked fine.

Well, about that, I have a "plan", or, better said, a contract between the carrier and the cellphone, so, I must wait for two days to complete the "legal" contract. So, after that, I guess that I can unlock the device and then, unlock bootloader.
Thanks for everything!
there many methods for unlock
any one tried ?
like s4 method
and how i can unlock my phone
im s-off and rooted and unlock boot-leader
thanks
If your bootloader is unlocked then you are currently unlocked. Not sure what else you are asking for?

Can someone explain whether process I go through on tmobile to unlock the bootloader? With the oneplus 8, I had to have 3 months paid off first and from there I could get the unlock code. Is it the same with note?
Thanks
I would also like to know that.
Hopefully someone can enlighten us on that
That was years ago particular with one plus, they don't have a say anymore with these phones.
You have to pay to get it unofficially unlocked.
Search the forums, I don't know if we're allowed to post pay for unlock link even if theyre on xda.
Also, if your phone is still sim locked and you unlock the bootloader, it will remain sim locked. Only T-Mobile can sim unlock it and if you do sim unlock after you unlock your bootloader, it will relock your bootloader and it's stuck as locked forever.
So I'd sim unlock your phone before paying to bootloader unlocking it.

Thanks coilbio,
That was helpful and appreciated.!
can you please clarify what do u mean by unlock?
If you need to unlock ur phone(network unlock) so that it can be used on any network then u can contact Tmobile to unlock your phone. You can contact Tforce on twitter to get ur phone unlocked. I was able to do that thro them.
Hi mindseye0803,
By unlock, I meant bootloader unlock,. My bad for not being specific on that.
Thanks for asking and hopefully, for help
