I have a HTC One X (evita) out of contract and want to sell it. Its rooted, bootloader unlocked, and RUU to factory with Android 4.1.1 Sense 4+and software 3.18.502.6 71ORD, I have the unlock code from AT&T but need a sim card from another carrier which I don't have and not sure how to get. I read on one of the posts that if its rooted and unlocked there is a way to sim unlock without a sim card but it didn't give the link and I can't find it searching or googling it. I did come up with a Youtube video of some software to download to use the code without a sim card but it was a bad download and some files missing. Is there a way to unlock the phone without another carrier sim and the code?

Not that I know of. All I did on mine was take a old junk SIM card and cut it to fit and popped it in and done.

I got the 'STRING: NOT FOUND' error on method one, so I moved to ADB Guide method and successfully unlocked it.

If you unlock the phone, it will still work with the original SIM card.
One possible reason that the other T-Mobile SIM didn't work is that it might not have been a newer 4G-capable SIM card, or the contacts became dirty ( they can easily be cleaned with a pencil eraser).

Did you try inserting "a SIM card not attached to your current provider (e.g if you have T-mob use an ATT SIM CARD) and turn on your phone?" (credit sanfranx415 post) edit: maybe try a different gsm carrier in the same country you reside.
From what I have read and understand different versions of busybox will work or are compatible for different things (maybe somebody will tell me if that is not accurate).
Here is a video that might help.
Good luck!
Try contacting t mobile and tell them your going overseas for a few months and want to take your phone with you and is there a way to unlock it so it can be used in another country.

When you insert the sim card and power up the phone, as you unlock it it should give you a network lock screen that only lets you use the phone after inputting the unlock code.
I have a Bell Mobility HTC One S (S4 version) with bootloader unlock:
Rom: Leedroid
HBoot: 1.08.0000

I am going spare because this is a gift and I cannot seem to unlock at all... any way to unlock this phone? whats causing this to happen

I had this problem and solved it. I discovered that the only way you can unlock your phone is that you must be on stock rom, otherwise it will not work. Get the RUU for Bell Mobility, unlock your phone, then you can put back on LeeDroid. I made a thread about this a few months ago and it has helped other people.
so i finally put the phone ack to the bell stock ruu..... but as before no luck :S... the password just keeps saying incorrect

No the phone is unrooted and running isc 4.0.3 but the question is how to enter the unlock code without the phone asking
How many different carrier sims have you tried? Some carriers use the same carrier code and as such there sim will not prompt you for the code. Like in the UK giffgaff and tesco mobile run on the o2 network. And as such do not require the sim unlock to run on an o2 locked phone. Try as many as you can find from different carriers. And if that fails, and it still doesn't give you the prompt, you can s-off the device, and then follow the sim unlock guide by viper (I believe) and do it for free
Hi everyone. I received the unlock code from AT&T and after I insert my non AT&T sim card and boot the phone up, I don't get the network unlock prompt. I get "sim not provisioned mm #2" how do I get the unlock prompt to come back up? I was rooted and running CM 7, but flashed it back to a the non rooted HTC stock rom from HTC's website. Any help/ideas are appreciated!
Are you SIM unlocked or bootloader unlocked? How did you root?

I'm sorry, I don't understand the difference between SIM unlocked & bootloader unlocked, I just want it unlocked so it can be used on different carriers. AT&T has already given me the code to use.
When I rooted, I used aahk, but when I put the stock HTC rom back, I lost root access.
Are you still S-Off? Which carrier's SIM are you trying to use? Some carriers lock their SIM cards, so only SIM unlocking the phone doesn't work.

Yes, s-off and I tried a verizon and a tracphone SIM
also tried a red pocket SIM and t-mobile SIM. I get the "sim not provisioned MM #2" message. No prompt

Since you used the aahk and are still soff than you already have Sim unlock. Not all carriers and Sims play nice with unlocked phones. Sometimes a different Sim will do the trick.
Example when I had unlocked my iPhone way back in the day (original) it would not work using my sisters tmo Sim but it would on my brothers tmo sim

Sim not provisioned mm#2 usually means the Sim card hasn't been activated, if the phone was Sim locked you would be prompted for the unlock code. Sounds like you're ready to go
