Good afternoon!
I bought an unlocked T-Mobile US HD2 and now I want to change the ROM.
Now it's unlocked, but can it back to locked state if I change the ROM?
What can happen?
Thanks.
no, once unlocked it will stay unlocked.
Nope, phone will never lock itself once its unlocked.
iPhone: 0
Every other phone: 1

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if there is a way to get the latest gingerbread version by easily editing build.prop. I'm on Uk orange.
I remember doing this on my xperia x10 and I managed to change Uk version to Nordic version.
Unlocked handset from Orange
just using my old dead thread to ask a different question.
Will i get the gingerbread update if i unlock my handset originally bought from orange or will it still depends on when orange releases the update. I mean normal unlock by paying £5 and entering the unlock code on the phone and not the bootloader unlock

If you do a SIM unlock, you are still going to be waiting for the update from Orange whenever they release it because it's still their FW...

Is there a way to debrand by modifying build.prop file?

No. You need to root your phonem unlock your bootloader, flash new firmware. I'm on Ornage UK and you lose most of your RAM when unlocking the bootloader before you flash new firmware.

Thanks. One more question will I lose warranty, if the bootloader is unlocked?

Yes you should consider it voided once you unlock bl.
Hey,
I need some help, I want to unlock my AT&T HTC One. I already have the unlock code with me.
But Right now I am on a custom ROM, GPE 4.3. I was inquisitive of two things:
1. If I can unlock my phone from the network while being on Custom ROM?
2. Can I unlock it using an international SIM, which is not working since the roaming is disabled.
To add to the first point, if I can how do I do it? And If I cannot think, I know the method to come to stock. But then again, after I come back to stock, how do I unlock the boot loader again and root the device?
Any help will be highly appreciated. Please let me know as soon as possible, I need to travel soon
I had problems SIM unlocking my AT&T HTC One with GPE conversion as well. It wouldn't unlock at all.
I simply just flashed ViperOne rom and tried the unlock it and it worked. I think you can only unlock with a sense rom but I am no developer so I wouldn't know for sure.
All you have to do is put the other SIM card with the sense rom and the option to unlock with an unlock code should come up and work.

This is a known issue that you can only unlock using a sense rom

I know it may be out of context but I have a sim unlocked AT&T HTC One, so if I'm going to unlock bootloader, root and flash a custom ROM then are there chances that my phone will be SIM Locked again ?

Someone offered me an E970 bought from AT&T and he says it is unlocked.
Does it mean someone unlocked it ? it is permanently unlocked then ? or do I need to obtain some PIN to unlock it
again when a software update is done ?

If its unlocked it can work with any GSM network provider no need to obtain PIN to unlock it. It will stay unlocked even after updating.
And you want to clarify whether he is referring to carrier unlocked or bootloader unlocked. Big difference.

Flashing a rom or RUU won't remove s-off, as long as it's s-off, doesn't matter if the bootloader is locked or not.

I don't know of any way to lock the sim, I'll have to leave it up to the GSM experts to answer.
I suggest you update your subject with that question instead of just a Q...
The Rezound does not have SIM lock... Never did. no amount of flashing anything will lock it.
