[Q] Disable SIM lock on Desire S - HTC Desire S

Hey, bought a new Desire S and it's locked to Orange. "Lucky" me, there is a free method to unlock all HTCs but this one. I really don't wanna bother paying a cent when there's something that can be done to remove it like S-OFF, etc...Any ideas on how to get rid of it?
Thanks in advance

I've heard it's only possible with xtc clip, so you'll have to pay either way.

^^^ This ^^^ Either pay Orange to get the unlock code or use an XTC-Clip (pay a shop to do it, buy a clip, rent one) - there is no 'free' method on the DS.

Ok, just bought a 99p unlock code on ebay. Guess there are not free ways to unlock this phone yet.

No there aren't and never will be. Did the 99p code work? If so that's as good as free so what's the problem?

XTC Clip Deal [for S-OFF]

hey all..
Now since I dont find any possible permanent method to acquire ROOT and S-OFF, I decided to buy an XTC Clip.. According to the XTC Official Support team, it should S-OFF The chacha and the Status and that should give us complete freedom with this brilliantly awesome economy phone.. And i dont think HTC is gona unlock the boot loader for the chacha as they are very busy with sensations and HD's and Dr Dre
People like me wouldn't actually wait for a possible method to come out so that i can S-OFF my phone LOL
I have ordered the XTC clip and will receive it today or maximum tomorrow..
I was just thinking, this XTC clip will be only needed once and it does have unlimited credits of use.. and keeping it with me would be practically useless once i've S-OFF'd the device.. So, if everyone was willing to share and S-OFF their phones, we could actually share this device.. like.. i could use it.. and pass it on to a friend who wants t here for a bit lower price than the price spent by me.. and that friend could pass it on.. and on.. this could be really helpful.. That way, all we do is spend a very small amount for s-off ing our devices and at the same time, help the others here at XDA too.. right ??
why not guys ??
If everyone agrees t this idea of mine, i wouldn't mind posting a full detailed guide to using the XTC clip for the newbies ..
Pls leave in your comments here.. i wish we could make this happen and help eachther
i am interested, iam from chennai.... by the way where u are ordering from? price?

i ordered it from bangalore.. cost me 2000INR + 100INR(courier charges) which is approx 30EUR where they officially sell it for35EUR..
I could pass it on to you for a lower price.. and you too could pass it on to some one here itself too..
yes will do that, but did u checked if it is original, coz there are many duplicate devices being sold here.

Set your superCID to 111111 also, if it didn't change by default (it should though). Just do a double check.

XTC Clip in Tyne and Wear
I hate to post in a slightly old thread, but I feel it's more relevant than starting one myself:
I've been searching around Tyne and Wear for shops or people that might know shops that have an XTC Clip. The few places I've tried have no idea what one is, but still tried offering a SIM-unlock.
Would anyone here happen to know of anywhere in this area (most specifically Newcastle-Upon-Tyne/Gateshead/South Shields/Sunderland) that has a Clip, or possibly another XDA-Developers member with one that I could offer a payment in person to?

[Q][SIM-UNLOCK] SIM Unlock code not found

Okay guys this is my first post here. I am writing this with a huge concern so I wanted to know if this is happening to you
I am from Argentina, I ordered my AT&T HTC One X at eBay and received it yesterday. I need the phone to be unlocked so that I can use it here
Turns out both two of the sites I tried on return the unlock code was "Not found". I am quite desperate, as you may know it's not nice to buy a 500 dollar phone not to use it.
I was wondering if any of you guys happen to be in the same situation than me, and if we can find a solution.
Thank you very much, (and sorry for my not so good english )
Julian
Try this one, I've used it and it worked for me.
Check your IMEI number before paying and I hope it works for you.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190694174164&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123
How long has it been since you unlocked it? Did you use the 5 dollar or the 25 dollar listing?
Thanks for the fast response
The whole process took about 10 min. for me.
I payed only $5.77
I paid $19.99 at a different site, where if they don't send you the code in like an hour they refund you immediately. Lmk if the other one doesn't work.

Ok. Thanks for responding. What I really need to know is how long ago (days, weeks) have you done the unlocking. I want to figure out if this is happening to all ATT One X's or just to unfortunate me
Seems like I am a jynx with this cellphone stuff
I unlocked it about 2-3 weeks ago. Came in fast and no problems.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Ok... so it seems there are no codes available right now...
FML!
What do you suggest guys? Please! I need to know if there's a chance I can get my phone unlocked in the near future.
Do you know if there is any senior member or specialist who knows about this stuff?
Thanks for the help

I had the same issue. I tried cellunlocker.net and it returned "not found", then I tried an ebay unlocking service that also didn't work.
Finally, just now, I tried the ebay-er listed in this thread above and it worked. I received the unlock code in 5 minutes. I have a One X from Rogers (same as ATT) and I used the following listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/32091354661...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2554wt_1413
You could try the ATT listing from the same seller.
Hello pal, I have already tried, returned not found. This is unbelievable. I have such a bad luck with these things! I don't know what to do, I think I am returning the phone. FML :crying:

Same problem. Did you get any solution?
I've been through the same situation. Tried cellunlocker, eBay, and countless others with all giving me the "code not found" email. Called ATT and they said they wouldn't provide the code until November.

This is really frustrating. I contacted unlockers from ebay. They say try after one month. Can we trust them?
I dont understand how people have unlocked HTC ONE X before?

Hi, I'm new posting, I had the same problem, my HOX returned in every single service "Not Found" Today I entered to a page and I put may IMEI into the verification and they say they have the code, I tried and they gave me the code in less than 5min! I was shocked because I searched for my unlock code more than 6 months and finally I have my HTC working! this is the page: htccode . com
The price is $15 because they search in the "ULTRA 2014 Database" Hope it work for all your!
Sorry if I misspelled some words, my English isn't good.

[GUIDE] Unlock your bootloader of Nokia phone

Greetings,
I see manny dramma about unlocking bootloader on nokia devices.
Nokia statement is NO OFFICIAL METHODE TO UNLOCK them, even they server is up and runing
I am offering unlock of bootloader, no matter which nokia.
nokia 2,5,6,6.1,7,7 plus,8 are supported models.
How to do it?
mod edit - content removed
I will calculate 5 free signatures (unlock.bin), if you are lucky you will get it, but hurry up.
When free signatures over, there is paid way (cheap)
WHOA 0 (zero) FREE SIGNATURE LEFT, only paid at now
BR
The method is working, the performer is honest. I recommend to those in need of quick unblocking.
Can i flash nougat with this unlocked bootloader

Yes you can
Can we trust someone who is only interested in charging for anything? What a way to help the forum partners if you are not able to supply links to stock firmware if it is not paying
I only know way to flash is not free, so no way of free flash. When i get firmware i will UPLOAD IT FREE!
In next 2 days expect it
Can flash stock rom or update for free
so how much for unlock my bootloader and which payment method?
I suspect this of being a scam. There's no real proof or any kind of guarantee that the person's not going to just run away with your funds. He's charging diffrent amounts, asking and seeking information about region you're currently living in and basing his prices about it.
First of all I DONE FREE 5 UNLOCKS.
People posted IN MY THREAD.
SECONE, FOR PAYMENT, IT IS DONE AFTER BL UNLOCK.
And yes, price deepends is it paypal, skrill or other thing. So go away with asshaming people.
All are happy to unlock it
I hasten to dispel all doubts. A man really honestly does his deed.No deception and espionage. I am very pleased with the result of his work.

Rather than payment method, you could instead give the complete guide for free and people, if they like they'll donate you.. that's how the process goes... You'll also gain a lot of respect in the forum

The only way i have seen in these forums to unlock is to pay off your phone and ask the carrier for unlock code.

Hit up TMOhelp on twitter and ank for perm. sim unlock. That's what I did and they got it sorted, and my phone isn't completely paid yet. I told them that I wanted to run the new dev preview of 11 and they hooked me up. I've been a customer forever and have been in good standing as well. It is their option, but TMOhelp on twitter has been the best source to get this done.
