Download the official rom for your phone and flash it. It should take the phone back to original rom without affecting the hspl or the "unlock". At least that's how it worked for me. If it doesnt then you can just flash hspl again to unlock it after flashing the original rom. hspl can be found here

Flashing the phone does NOT unlock it - to do that you need to pay for a code from your supplies or via one of the internet companies that provide the service

possibly stupid newb question but need to know answer

i have my titan unlocked with the olipro 2.40 unlocker i wanted to know if u wanted to go back to the original unofficial leaked rom will it try and update the radio since i already have it or wht and will it relock it.oh and if it is gonna reload the radio does any have jus the rom itself.
if you download the rom of a distributor site, it will replace your rom and radio.
and relock your phone.
i have had issues with the telus 6.0 upgrade before though, in which case i had to use the relocker first.
the only reason i was going back to the rom was fixed and also i thought a lil bit after i posted and realized for all the reading tht ive done tht it was a really stupid question on my part but thanx for answering.

You don't need to CID unlock but you do need to install Hard-SPL. Then you can flash any ROM you like. Try reading the wiki and read the forums about flashing before you flash for the first time.
The sticky posts on the Forums often cover the basics.

hooold it! before you make a big mistake.
* ALWAYS use hard spl!
* use any rom that you like
* update it...and that's all
you don't use CID lock unless you are 100% sure of what you're doing! when you're device is CID unlocked there is no way back!
(a pain in the *ss with warrenty issues)
Is there are way to know if your phone is already CID unlock or not?
Cuz i bought my phone with a custom rom in it already... so i know that it has been HardSPL already, but i don't know if they had unlock the security/CID or not...
Thanks for the help,
Radio:1.02.25.31

Pretty sure error 262 is vendor ID check which means your not Hard-SPL or CID unlocked i'd advise you take some time to read the stickys at the top of forum before going any further...

T mobile G2

Hi fellas i am new to this forum n wanted to ask a question i even searched fr it but couldnt find the thread
I live in india and have bought imported T mobile G2 frm ebay n it says it is unlocked to work with all sim cards........
so does it mean that it is already rooted and i can directly install mocado roms
or i have to root it again to install htc firmware(the seller said that it has been imported from germany n was unlocked there using some meathod before shipping)
so pls help
pls help
The SIM lock has nothing to do with the "rooted" status of the phone - they are independent of one another.
If you need to root the phone and/or install custom ROMs, follow one of the many guides that are available.

thx bro n unlock is permanant??or is like iphone?
If you mean the SIM lock, yes if you unlock the phone it remains unlocked.
If you mean rooting (jailbreaking), then the answer is no. If you flash an unrooted ROM, you will lose root access on your phone and have to root again.

so aftr rooting i can also update my phone with official htc firmwares
n how modaco firmware is better thn htc's firmware

[Q] [REQ] Orange UK 2.1 update.zip

Heya,
Im just trying to flash my old hero as im selling it, and i need it unlocking first, the unlock site has suggested i use the latest orange ROM.
Does nayone have the orange 2.1 rom in update.zip format?
If you flash back to the stock 1.5 you should get the 2.1 OTA update - there is also a thread with official RUU *it's stickied* however if you want to unlock it for all carriers you'll have to buy a code - I tried to find a free alternative but couldn't. Just went on eBay and got one for about £6.
Yeah i didnt want to use the RUU files as i didnt want to have to redo the recovery stuff.
Yah i have a code.
Never mind, guess ill just have to totally redo it.
Moved to Q&A as not development

[Q] [SK17] Can't get into fast boot and bootloader unlock says no.

Phone was recently bought in Canada signed to Rogers. Flashed new firmware onto it, version 4.0.A.2.368. Could Rogers branding it is stopping the bootloader from being unlocked? I assumed that flashing generic firmware onto phone would also debrand phone.
I'm afraid you can't unlock the bootloader because your phone is branded...
Flashing another firmware will not debrand your phone...
maybe you should wait till developers find a solution or debrand your phone(if it's possible).
Ah yes, I had assumed that since it's branded I could not unlock bootloader. Searching around google i found a site that confirmed branded phones needed to be unlocked before bootloader is open.
Devs close thread please.
Have a look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037874
...I don't know if it could be useful for your device though..

Sorry for offtopic, but:
Where exactly do I find the official SE bootloader unlock page? And can I revert it to retain the warranty?
