Is there a way to unlock my sim so I can stay with t-mobile but use any AT &T phone.

You don't unlock the SIM card, you unlock the phone itself to use a different carrier other than the one it was locked to . (IE- Samsung Vibrant is locked to T-Mobile, unlock it and you can use a AT&T SIM card in it and it will run on AT&T)

If you are in good standing with AT&T you can request an unlock code from them.

Like the previous poster said, you can unlock directly through ATT if you are their customer.
If not, search for Atrix unlock code on ebay. Those should work too but cost money.

Although the 3 handsets are branded ROMs, I don't think they are locked onto the 3 network.
Even if it is locked to three if you got it on a contract after 30 days you can request for an unlock which I did and now my phone is unlocked to all networks

Yes. All the HTC variants are the same except the Sprint one. Head on over to the international forum if you want some of the good roms.
Thanks man, but wait do I have to sim unlock?

If you're going with a different carrier yes, if you have a T-Mobile HTC One and just want to flash one of the international roms and continue to use it on T-Mobile then no.
Thanks for the help appreciate it

Not to make a point out of you but people get SIM unlock and root and bootloader unlock way mixed up.
Kinda like when someone says hey I rooted my iPhone or jail broke my android
SIM unlock only means one thing using a diff carrier SIM card on another carriers device .

You can get the code from ATT, ebay or do it yourself (which is what I did) ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124544
There is a way to unlock it without a code. I have a Rogers i717 on T-Mobile network. Search the threads. I think the instructions are still there. Barring that, try Google. If I find it I'll post a link.
