Hello!
I Had a short Question, about sim-unlocking a HTC HD 2.
Is there a difference between unlocking with stock rom, or costom rom??
The problem is that i become 2 codes for unlocking, and it won´t work to unlock it. Got allready a costom rom on it and another radio rom.
Sorry for my english, i am from Austria.
Thanks
SIM unlocking is totally separate issue from the ROM unlocking. So it doen't matter what ROM you are running.
There is quite a few posts about SIM Unlocking sites giving non-working codes.

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
Hi!
I´ve decided to unlock my phone and install a new rom.
1, is there a easy guide on how to unlock your phone?
2, do i need to unlock my phone if its not restrikted to a carrier?
3, what does radio mean? ( people talk about it when talking about roms )
4, the version number of my factory rom, is it important? do i need to match the rom i download with the same number?
5, how come that the roms you guys tweek here are so much faster then the facory roms?
Thanks.. im a learning newbie at this,
If you only want to install new ROMs, just install a HardSPL (see the related thread).
Doing this you will CIDunlock your phone (it means you'll be able to flash any ROM on it), but this is not a SIMunlock : you are still restricted to your phone operator.
If you want to make your phone completely security ulocked (SIM unlocked, and SuperCID, which is the next level of the CIDunlock), try to use Jocky's software.
thanks for answering...
Anybody who can cover the rest of my "noobie" questions?

Hey as far as I know swapping out roms on an android device plays no effect on the sim making it re-lock. When I had an unlocked G2x i was swapping out roms all day and never had to buy another code or anything.
Hope this helps you.
Once a phone is sim unlocked, its unlocked forever.

You won me the answer post.
I have a sim unlocked ATT Atrix too, and after the .91 update the sim unlock remained.
Cheers.
Hi,
I will be moving out of the country for a little while and was wondering if anyone could help me out with unlocking my vibrant. (see sig for current set up)
I have attempted using several market utilities but have had no luck, i havent yet called T-mobile because im fairly certain that the unlock code with custom roms installed wont work (correct me if im wrong this is just an assumption im making)
Does any one know of a way to sim unlock the vibrant while on custom roms?
Do i have to use a hex editor?
If i flash back to stock, use sim unlock provided by t-mobile, will the unlock persist after flashing a custom rom?
Thank you in advance to those who reply.

Unlocking has nothing to do with having a custom rom or not.
1. Easiest way is to call T-Mobile for unlock code
2. Quickest way is to follow these directions:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=761045
3. Yes you will need a hex editor and be able to use adb.
Once unlocked it will stay unlocked after flashing custom roms.
I was just in an area without decent T-mobile coverage and had to unlock to use a AT&T GoPhone sim. Did #2 from above. 10 minutes max.
Hi all,
just about in install dynamics custom rom for the htc 7 mozart, as Im a newbie Im not 100% sure on the network unlock. it was locked to orange uk.
I was wondering once the rom is installed, will it still be network unlocked? if not i still have my unlock code could i use this again?
thanks
