Follow that tutorial the link provided by jmcclue. You have to unlock boatloads first using HTC dev.

Dont think u can, flashing custom rom wont do nothing either. Either pay a shop or buy a motherboard.

By imei block do you mean you are locked to a specific phone carrier like virgin, o2, orange, that sort of thing
or do you imei block as in the phone has been reported stolen/unpaid for and wont work on any network, local or otherwise?

Ur problem is windows 8. Its a known nightmare for getting fastboot to work on it. So ur options are, search for how to get fastboot to work on windows 8 or if u can get ur hands on a pc with vista/win 7, if u can then ul be done in 20 mins.

Need more info. What do u mean stuck on rom installing? Do u have recovery? If yes then boot phone into recovery, full wipe, then reinstall the rom, once its finished installing, do NOT reboot. Boot ur phone straight into fastboot mode, plug into pc and flash the boot.img thats inside the rom zip. The command to flash the boot.img from fastboot is
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then reboot ur phone.

i fixed it. Now i need unblock my imei adress .. My Sim card not working... Wirting: Limited Acess

i also need this .. type info .. cause RUU gives me signature error or sumthng ... n have to flash thorugh fastboot but the bootloader says: RE-LOCKED .. ;(
Follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500165
And download RUU from here http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Pico
Regards .
Even if you go back to stock with RUU, you cant claim warranty! Because now the bootloader will show relocked instead of locked!
SO there is no way to get the "LOCKED" status back once you unlock the boot-loader ?
and i also read somewhere that using htcdev to unlock bootloader gives them our IMEI and so, they know about our device even if we reset it and htc can cause us not to have warranty or so and we can't give any stupid reasons to the service centers to believe we did nothing wrong.

You can read VERY carefully the s-off thread, somewhere there was .img , that you can flash and it will show locked, but also it will stuck on hboot screen, so it's up to you.

[Q] Need to create SIM CARRIER LOCK again...

Hi everyone.
I don't know if its even possible but need to create the SIM CARRIER LOCK again.
When i unlock the bootloader i "erase" the sim carrier lock (guess happen to everyone) and that is awesome but know i need my phone to be carrier lock again.
Don't need that to be forever, i like it unlocked . If that is a way to fake it it's ok but need to be hidden and need to persist after reboot.
I know it's strange but i really need it... I already flash my nandroid backup from the stock rom, flash a stock recovery and lock the bootloader, still unlocked!
Anyone knows how to do it?
Thanks!
(And sorry for my bad English)

By Sim carrier lock, do you want to relock your boot loader or do you want to restrict your phone to using the same Sim as it came with?

Well there is a way but idk if its works use J-Tag or Riff-Box it will make your phone fully as it was came in the box. My friend used it on his HTC Wildfire S and he made the phone back to factory defaults i mean the bootloader, the software it was fully restored and the Sim Branding was also restoted!

Please create an backup of your Rom using CWM and then you can try to update/flash your phone.. If your phone is locked again, put your backup back in and search for an patch for multilanguage with arabic support..

NO, the phone will NEVER be locked again
SIM LOCK is more like a hardware based security, not software.
you can flash stock safe

after you unlock the sim, you have to flash custom recovery and then root
then you can flash custom rom through recovery
BTW, its possible the phone can be lock again only if he unlocked the sim via root exploit
if he used an IMEI calculator, yes it is ok

at this point, your phone is not unlocked via root exploit
so you can do whatever you want, it will not lock
and the unlock being part of hardware, it will never lock back unless you want it to happen

he flashed stock rom as the method of calculating the unlock code based on imei is valid for this phone on 2,3,6
he could do this on kk risking to not work and losing the money
maybe he thinks the code resets the bootloader which happens on devices such as htc
but i have here a clear example:
if you use the yellow triangle away app from chainfire and you flash another rom, does the yellow triangle appears again?
i guess you know what is triangle away, search it on google if you dont
and the triangle thing is a hardware code, so is the sim lock
Hope i helped you!
