hey guys,
Finally got my HTC Nike Neon400 today!
Will the methods in the stickied hardSPL thread work for unlocking my device?
Do I need to have my device unlocked to tether via bluetooth to a laptop?
And does anyone have a tethering guide that i can follow that will work with my device?
Thanks in advance!
ok got tethering working with PDANet
the 35 bucks for the app is well worth it imo.
But my phone is still locked, im not sure what bell disables, i still don't know how to unlock it and im afraid to use the stickied guide because i dont know if it will work for a Neon400.
Bell does not use sim cards, so my phone does not have a simcard if that makes any difference.
Advice desperatly needed.

Hi gang, I haven't had my ameo for more than a week, bought it brand new and unlocked on ebay from the u.k (I'm in Australia) so far it's working great, but I don't like some of the t-mobile specific stuff. is it possible (after doing MUCH reading to make sure I know all the possibilities) to use a dopod or htc rom reasonably safely?
Thanks for all replies.
hi there are 2 locks here 1) sim unlock (this is unlocked) and 2) cid unlock (still cannot be unock)
sim unlock enable to use various carrier while cid unlock enable to flash various roms.
so in this case i'm afraid that you will not be able to flash to other rom
hope this explains
cheers
At least not be able to flash to other ROM until the CID unlock is developed for the phone. It'll come soon.
Ahh, I see now, thanks guys, I'll sit back patiently and let the gurus do their thing
I used the unlocker to unlock the sim only. Can I upgrade tothe offical WM6 from the HTC site for AT&T without any problems? Or is there a chance of bricking the device?
Thanks

There is always a change to brick a device when flashing it. 'Tis the nature of the beast.
However, there is a way to greatly reduce the chances of bricking your hermes, and that is to install HardSPL.

Make sure to read the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes) and by the phone deities, don't try to flash your phone without HardSPL installed!
As for your question, if you have an AT&T branded phone, you should be able to flash it to the AT&T release. If you don't have an AT&T phone, you won't be able to, unless you make the phone SuperCID (which HardSPL will do).
If you are using AT&T, I hear good things about vp3g's ROM, available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313392.
Mr. Vanx also has a really good guide at http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/, covering many flashing questions.
Now, go forth and read!
Hello, I just ordered a HD2 that is locked to Tmobile, so I believe it is the 1024Leo. My main question is, Do I need to find someone with a Tmobile Sim to be able to install Hardspl or can I just hook it up to USB and run the program?
Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this question, it just seemed correct.
Thank you,
-James
no you dont need a sim in to run hspl.
You know hspl wont unlock the network lock though, right?
There is no hack/unlocker for the hd2. You will need to buy a code or get one off t mo.
1st I wanna say i came from an inspire so probably things are a bit different.
I bought a att atrix, now I will be using this in the dominican republic so i need unlock, in the inspire rooting would give you radio OFF and your device would be unlocked, after reading here unlocking BL and Rooting won't give you sim unlock and the best thing to do would be to buy an unlock code from ebay. Some one please confirm this.
Now the device comes with gingerbread, I don't need to flash an sbf right? I can go straight to unlock the bootloader?
Now to unlock the bootloader, ive seen several methods, the easiest ones seems to be the Script which has everything, but after readying the latest posts, almost everyone is getting issues? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182871 is this recommended or not?
ALso found this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202883&highlight=sim+unlock
Just wanted your input on how should i unlock the bootloader since getting the money for the phone wasn't easy and I don't want it lost by hard bricking.
Also any insight on further processes like installing CWN and Rooting would be helpful.
Thanks in advance, will thank people who help.
Anybody? Hello?
Call or chat to AT&T customer support for sim-unlocking your phone. Better to use online "Chat" since they'll ask your phone's IMEI # and you don't want to misspell it. Atrix is not exclusive to AT&T, so if you're kind and reasonable enough, they'll give the unlock code to you for free. Call again if you're denied at first, I'm sure you'll meet someone who wants to help you. I just got mine a few weeks back.
For BL unlocking and rooting, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154600 if you're new to this.
Hello again
Going to be unlocking my SK17i XMP using Wotanserver. Its 14.99 EUR but I'm in the UK so it's around 12.50GBP for me
Got a few questions though for people who have used it before to SIM UNLOCK their phone. Not bootloader unlock or flash firmware. SIM UNLOCK.
1)I know it unlocks the bootloader before SIM unlocking the phone but wanted to know if I already had the bootloader unlocked, would this in anyway affect the program?
2) Can I have some more information on the Test Point for the SK17i please? Don't fully understand what to do when its going to ask me to test point? Anyone help with this? A link to a website or video would be useful
Thanks a lot
EDIT: Also, what is the best thing to use for the testpoint? A paper clip?
Thanks
Anyone help me with this?
1.- Don't worry it will not harm your device if you have an unlocked bootloader and then you unlock your sim.
2.- Here http://simlockmobile.com/tutorials/xperia-testpoint-guide/ this one show you the test point and this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y-Ua8czYXM it is a video on how are you going to do it only it is with fast gsm but it is the same process.
I used a pair of small pincers kind of the ones on the video but the paper clip will also work.
Hope it helps and have a nice one!
