No rooting won't unlock the carrier of it phone. Rooting is just unlocking the system, carrier lock is different. Contact it vendor or u can Google search '(carrier name) unlock device'
It should be on it carriers website.

You'd have to contact the Carrier or look for unlock codes on Ebay.

My phone was unlocked but I changed the ROM and is blocked again.
Kindly follow How To Unlock HTC Hero (especially the Orange UK) and in case of issues, post in that thread someone familiar with the device may be of assistance.
Flashing Roms does not lock the phone. Flashing full firmware including baseband and bootloader may do so.

Does anybody found a way to do it? i cant buy it online....
SIM Unlock
If you have your phone paid off and/or have had service for a few months, you should be able to get the unlock code and instructions from TMo. They provided me with the aforementioned info without any pushback. Just call their support number or hop on chat and they will help you out. Also it's free

Here is a great article on phone unlocking with the carriers.
http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/phone-unlocking-guide-for-all-carriers/
Looking for someone with the international model or knowledge about it. First, does it come carrier unlocked from the factory? Second, is the bootloader unlockable? Thanks for any help.

As long as you don't buy from a carrier it should be unlocked I guess. If you wanna unlock the bootloader you just have to use the "fastboot flashing unlock" command on fastboot and that's it. Some people do recommend to leave it open once you unlock it.
I have the International Pixel XL...
Model: G-2PW2200
I believe it depends where you buy it or who you buy it from...
Mine came carrier unlocked and with an unlockable bootloader...
As far as I am aware, the EE version is not unlockable. Not sure if there are any others.

bootloader unlockable?
so in question, amazon usa has an s10+ unlocked for $850.
the ? is, can i unlock the bootloader to install twrp and root or is this just a phone to use on any carrier or both views of BL unlock n carriers?
my unlocked Motorola x pure I was able to install TWRP backup original operating system root n be happy or install custom roms.
please clarify this for me.

When buying a device from Amazon, Swappa, Ebay and the like, when the device is listed as "unlocked", it means it is carrier/SIM unlocked to be used on other networks.
As for whether the bootloader is unlockable to flash TWRP or not, that may depend on the exact model number, whether or not the bootloader can even be unlocked at all may depend on the carrier that the device originally came from.

Ok, what does that have to do with the difference between the meanings of the terms "unlocked(SIM)" and "unlocked(bootloader)"?
What are you asking?

I do not know, but, as I already told you, that will depend on the specific model number of the device and which carrier the device originally came from. You need to do some researche using the device's model number to determine whether or not it can be unlocked and rooted. If you are looking for someone to do the work for you and spoonfeed you the answers that you are looking for, you are in the wrong place.

Are they going to send a sim unlock code? How did you enter the sim unlock code from them?
