Effect of ROM updated on unlocked phone - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I have a SIM unlocked t-mobile G2 (HTC Hero).
My question is that if I install a custom ROM (e.x MoDaCo HTC Hero ROM), will it relock my phone OR once unlocked it always remain unlocked ?
Thanks,
Ankur

The SIM lock is independent of your ROM. If you unlock the phone, it will stay unlocked.
Regards,
Dave

Thanks Dave for clearing my confusion.

My ameo unlocked, possible to flash the rom?

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

[Q] at&t htc one m8 RUU update to lollipop?????

hi ppl .... m using HTC ONE M8 (at&t unlocked),, I want to update it to android 5.0.2 through manual RUU update,,
but updating by this procedure,,,,will it relock my phone again from at&t carrier.
kindly advise
No, RUU will not SIM lock the phone again.
If the bootloader is unlocked, you need to relock.
But if the phone isn't modifed (bootloader unlock, root, etc.) then just backup you personal data (RUU will wipe the phone) and run the RUU.
same issue
