I'm wondering if LTE is built into the Rom of the phone or is it a hardware issue? My carrier just added it in my area and if there's a custom Rom for my phone out there i'd most likely try it. thanks

Its hardware. The radio chip needs to support it.

Figured you might be.lol what about unlocking for using different carrirers? does that have to do with the sim lock in bootloader?
Here's my understanding of it
Simlock is where your phone will only accept one network...this is obviously an option in hboot
AAHK had SuperCID which sim unlock but since AAHK is retired. AFAIK, there isn't an easy option to unlock the sim for desire or inspire 4g..If you want to sim unlock to use a different service provider. You might have to Google for sim unlock codes

Yeah, that's something different. You need to look at the instructions for manual S-Off, posted by AAHK's author attn1, for SIM unlock.
That's no easy task, good luck OP...

If the phone is rooted, then the most probable is that is already sim unlock. Use this to check (fifth bullet):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD
Take into consideration that not all carriers are supported with sim unlock...

I follow all root how to but fail due to permission denied error.
People say you can unlock bootloader without being rooted.
But all unlocking how to, state that phone must be rooted.
I have XL, 1.88.
Can anyone confirm that I can unlock bootloader without being root initially?
You have to be rooted. Sorry.

Not entirely true. You need to be rooted on AT&T, since BL unlock is not officially offered for us and we need to change the SuperCID.
Not sure if this is the case with SingTel. Most carriers are allowed to unlock their BL officially. If HTC offers the bootloader unlock for that carrier CID, you do not need root. And root is easily achieved after BL unlock (just install a custom recovery and flash SU).

Sorry. Unfamiliar with other carriers. Plus, I never saw the One X in the list on the dev site at all. Has it changed? Or, are you saying that some carriers don't lock the bootloader at all? I wonder why AT&T even cares about locking it down.
If your phone is NOT on AT&T, you can unlock the bootloader with HTCDev.com
That means you do NOT i repeat NOT need root.
Just choose "All other supported phones" in the list of phones.

I lol'd at this. No offense taken. Actually, you are quite correct. I've been unhappy in general with AT&T, but not much of a choice is available. Glad we had that break-up of Ma Bell so long ago because of deregulation. Sounds like we need that again.

Are you sure? It is listed as a HTC One XL with LTE coverage and their firmware works on everyones S4 phones.
Where is your info coming from that the phone isnt a S4??
To add facts:
Singtel previously offers both: HTC one X and HTC one XL (LTE).
Now, I think Singtel only offers One XL.
Singtel 4G Network Just about 3 months old.
BTW, I successfully Unlock Bootloader and gain root upon Rom Flashed.
I encountered no trouble at all. And did the following:
. follow HTCdev literally
. flash TWRP recovery image using fast boot flash command
. flash custom rom zip file thru TWRP

Hi friends.
If writing is not the topic I'm sorry.
Question to you is:
Does AAHK to unlock sim card?
It is possible to give to the service center for a firmware update, but they do not know how to unlock it, or rather do not have equipment. Will I be able to unlock your Inspire 4G on Ukrainian MTS with this program?
Thank you in advance

Yes. The hack kit do sim unlocks your device, but take into consideration that not all sims work with unlocked devices. Anyway, it Is worth trying.

Again, you device will be sim unlocked, but then depends on your carrier and not the device itself. You can also buy an unlock code if you don't want to run the Hack Kit.

To be honest I've read a lot of forums, has seen a lot of videos on YouTube, and still did not understand how to flash the phone.
Can give step by step instructions?
Now I have installed Root, is S-off. For all I know.
Firmware 2.3.3 Sense 2.1
Maybe there is a person who helps in Skype?
and one more thing - I'd like to firmware 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 (or similar)
unmodified, similar to what is official and that all functions of the phone worked.
Can you give a link to download?

Video tutorial are useless...use the guide in my signature. Downgrade is not root nor S-OFF, so make sure that you are S-OFF for certain before trying something.

I plan on rooting a friends Inspire 4g and I was wondering which method should I use to root the phone? I understand there are 2 different ways. It's an HTC Inspire 4g 2.3.5 with the build number 3.20.502.52 cl380259. I can't seem to find any recent ways to find out how to do this except this on here:
http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=88
Is that the only way to do it now? I have experience with rooting. I've rooted 2 HTC arias in the past along with a moto back flip and atrix 2, so I do have rooting and flashing experience. Im just trying to get some more info before doing this. Thanks for any and all help.
Yes, you would need to do it that way for S-Off. You could also unlock the boot loader with HTCDEV only, but you will be S-On and get fewer options that way.

Well I plan to only flash one rom on this device and never mess with it again. Preferably CM9/10. I don't plan on messing with different roms after that. So if I root using HTCDEV, will I be able to flash one of those ROMS?
Yes. You will need to fastboot flash boot.img separately after the ROM.

Then you don't have an unlocked bootloader. You are S-OFF, which means that the nand partition security is off now. That allows you to flash anything you want...much better than an unlock bootloader only.

So if I just root and have S-OFF without having an unlocked bootloader, I can flash any ROM of my choosing? That seems like it's the best way to go or the easiest at least. Could you give me or mind PM'ing me the AAHK that you used Jrhodes?

Yes. If http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=88 applies read it. If not just use AAHK from the same site. I don't know anything about how the GS3 is unlocked. The link in my signature (to the thread in the DHD forums, which is the international variant of the same phone) will help.

I read on the one s forums that carrier updates are actually pushed out by HTC, not the carrier. It's based on the cid of the phone, not what SIM card you have in it.
