hi everyone,can anybody help in my quest to unlock my htc wildfire,its locked to vodafone am havin problems gettin hold of unlock codes!!would be most grateful for any help,thanks.
I thought Vodafone unlocked phones for free or is it an unlock code issue?
I would go into voda and ask if they unlock for free cause i had (take that into effect) Had a vodafone mobile and they did have a website to unlock...
I've had alot of problems unlocking my HTC Wildfire on vodafone, wish I had just paid the extra to get a sim free one.
I had problems with alot of websites, not refunding money.
I'm currently waiting on HTCCODE to supply mine.
Ive spoken to customer support and they have the code for my mobile, but it cost a little more, but tbh if/when I get it, i'll be glad, vodafone are a crap company and I wish I had never given them my money.
They won't do it for free, if you are on Paygo, if you are contract, it should be unlocked or its free unlocking otherwise there's an "admin" charge of like 20 pounds, but i'd rather pay 23pounds to another website, rather than give vodafone any more of my money..
Good luck.
Thanks for sharing...............................
Its possible to unlock your HTC mobile using the codes.There are many providers offer this unlocking service. If you wanna code, get it from your network provider.
Once you get the code, you may follow the instructions from http://www.mobileunlockguide.com/ .It helps to unlock your htc mobile easily.
Hi,
Is there any solution to unlock my T-mobile HTc HD7 for free ? There are indeed a lot of websites to provide this solution, but not for free unfortunately.
Many thanks in advance!

I'd like to know as well...I've mostly used CDMA devices so they were always kind of locked I guess...
if you got it subsidized through tmous, they make you wait 60days usually for a free unlock code. Why shouldn't they? If you bought the device subsidized, they have a right to make that money back.
If you bought it outright, they should just give it to you.
I'm talking about buying it outright...
Has anyone come up with a solution to this yet? I am interested in going out of the country in the next month and would like to slip in another sim card while I am out. Thanks! 8)
Riiight.
You just forked out for a really expensive piece of kit. Is it really going to break the bank to pay 19 euros to unlock it?
If you're going to buy the HD7 from T-Mobile at full price you can ask T-Mobile for the unlock code. You just have to fax them the receipt.
Hey guys i'm from Malaysia n i just purchased a HTC HD 7.Wanted to know if the unlock option is available here for free..Thanks
Why would everyone talk about imei unlock sites and 19 bucks, when there is a for-free method? try a search..

I just got mine a few days ago and requested a code using a friends prepaid account. I did that so that they would process it as if I bought it flat out and process it for me. Expecting results tomorrow and will keep posted
Edit: code came in this morning. Whole process took less than 24 hours. Now using my hd7 on att's network.
Also needing an unlock method that is free or very cheap and doesn't require me to ask Tmobile for it.
Thanks.
I am not aware of any sites that work to SIM unlok your phone. What I can contribute is that if you SIM unlock your HD7 through T-Mobile, you will need to have another provider's SIM to complete the process.

Hey guys, I searched like 2 days for free unlocking.

Okay,
I'm New To This Forum and yes i know there is people asking about this but ive been searching for days now to find a free unlock code for my htc hd2 i am not a tmobile customer and never have been my whole family has never been either so i can not get a free sim unlock code that way i know i can buy them but right now cash is very tight and i really want to use my htc hd2 as a phone but im att so i can not do that.....so what im really asking is there a true way to unlock your htc hd2 for free 100%... if not i would really appricate if a tmobile customer could get me a unlock code for my htc hd2.
Thanks, For Reading
No, you can't get a code for free if you're not a T-mobile customer. Get a code on ebay, they only cost 6-10 dollars..
Thanks for sharing......................

Seems like good advice, re. using codes to unlock but then....
Use what is probably the world's most expensive unlocking site?
Your own network operator would be miles cheaper than say $63.36 !!

Hello,
I have rooted my device and I have even unlocked the Bootloader, but I still think there is something that I should do and I was looking in this forum but I couldn't find anything.
So my questions are:
1) is there anything I can do to have my sim unlock?
2) if the answer to the first question is "no for now", then if I instal one of the custom roms in the forum, will the sim be unlocked then?
thanks
Wrong section, this is the Development section, please refer to the Q&A section

or the GENERAL HERE:http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1539
If you need to get SIM UNLOCK to use the phone with a different carrier you need to get an unlock code.
Unfortunately this isn't free. You can have this done by cellunlocker.net they require to get your IMEI to generate the unlock code for you device.
In about 2 hours from that point on you'll get an EMAIL with the unlock code. This will set you back by 7,99$ USD.
There you go you can now use your phone with any carrier afterward.
Cheers bud.
Sorry about the misplacement of the thread.
I know that I need an unlock code, it's just that I away from USA for couple months and going back so that's why I don't want to spend money on something for only couple months.
I thought that there exist some method in this forum which will allow me and others to have our devices sim unlocked.
It's a shame that I am a programmer but I can't do it myself because I don't know from where to start so I can sim unlock my own device.
If someone is willing to guide me through some hacking tutorials, I will be very happy to learn how to hack myself and I would love to share my hacking work with others but the question is from where should I start.
still looking for a potential help if possible
No problem. The likely hood that you'll find what your looking for are quite slim to none at this present time. Cheers mate.
Use www.cellunlocker.net
I unlocked my ATT HTC One X through them.. They are legitimate and the code they provide works .... cost abt 11$... but definitely worth it... they sent me the carrier unlock code in abt an hour...

There is no free method at this time. Some folks are working on it, look for the thread in Development. But at this time, you will need to use a paid service if you want it SIM unlocked.
It only costs $11. What's your alternative, not use your One X for a couple months? Even if you have a backup phone that is SIM unlocked, my guess is that you will end up wishing you had spent the $11 so that you can use your awesome One X!
$7 on Ebay, i got my code in a matter of minutes.

Is this unlock code a permanent same-as-factory-unlock carrier unlock? In other words, flashing some type of radio, rom, boot loader, etc will not re-lock this phone to a carrier?
How do these services and ebay vendors get an unlock code? I'm not looking to do this myself, but I just thought that these phones have unlock codes that are controlled by htc and held in some database. So I'm not sure what these companies are doing.
unlock code bought online = unlock forever even if you factory reset or w/e you kids do with your smartphones these days.
^ What he said, permanent.
Long live the One X
Thanks to everyone.
I will just wait because I am carrying 2 devices with me all the time anyway so it does not effect me at all, I thought there is a free way, plus I am going back to the US in few weeks and I will be using AT&T again.
For me $7 is less than 2 packs of cigarettes, so to me it's like free
Long live the One X
Ya not doing it because you don't want to spend seven dollars is pretty crazy IMO
Even if it wasn't permanent, its not like the unlock code changes if you flash a radio/rom, you'd just have to re enter.
I just want to know how to do for the sake of knowing how to do it... I figure there's several services out there that do it and all the ask for is the carrier and IMEI so there must be fairly easy way to do it...
?
If I've ever had a legit need to sim unlock, such as overseas travel, I simply call my provider and they just tell me the code.

Hi there,
I recently bought a cheap Rogers HTC One X in mint condition off my local classifieds ($300). It is locked to Rogers and I need to use it on Telus. What is the best way to unlock it? Is there any way to unlock it for free? I am not experienced at all with Android, I'm coming from an iPhone but would really like to get this working because I'd love to get rid of it and just use my One X.
Please help
No free options yet. You would have to buy an unlock code online

Or you could just go.to the carriers store ans get it unlocked. Tell then you have family over seas and you're buying it as a birthday present. Most of the carriers will unlock it for free.

Actually after an amount of time with good standing they are these days.
Though one like Telus charges 50, so its not worth it versus a few bucks online.

Will using an unlock code permanently unlock the phone? Also, will the unlock be removed by changing ROMs, unlocking the bootloader, etc? Is the unlock code a one-time use kind of thing? How do they even get these unlock codes?

Unlocking your phone unlocks the branding on your phone. Like if you have AT&T and you put as T-Mobile SIM card in, it won't work. If it was unlocked and you did that, it would work.
If you changed your Rom, no. Each phone has their own imei number, therefore it only has one unlock code. As for it being a one time use, no. And if you unlocked your bootloader, no.
The unlock code will perm unlock your phone so you can use it internationally and with different carriers as long as they use SIM cards(and if that card fits in your phone).

Thanks everyone for the replies so far, I really appreciate it! :good: I have only a few last questions before my problem is resolved:
1.) Where is the best place/website to get an unlock code from (in terms of price, success, etc) ?
2.) How do I enter in the unlock code into my phone?
