When you unlock the phone, what gets unlocked ? The phone or your sim card ? Here is my real problem:
I originally had the XDA 1 from T-Mobile, bought an XDAII on Ebay, was told it was unlocked, but it was not. Ran the xda2unlock program from your website, it unlocked the phone so I could use the phone itself with my old SIM card from T-Mobile. Now I see there is a new ROM from O2, the question is, if I run that, will the unit be locked once again, and since the Radio verison on the new ROM is 1.17, and the xda2unlock only works on 1.10 radio stack (as said on the download site here) will I then be stuck with a phone with a new ROM that is once again locked - that I won't be able to unlock ? I don't want to try this unless I am fairly certain it is a safe thing to do... :? :? :?
it wont re-lock the phone if you upgrade
When you unlock the phone, what gets unlocked?
Where is the information stored that determines if a phone is unlocked or locked then ? If it's on the SIM card itself, then I could see that a phone upgrade wouldn't (shouldn't) have any effect. If it's on the phone, wouldn't that lock/unlock information be overwritten when the phone's ROM is upgraded? :?
re-locked
Nope, I unlocked my XDAII then upgraded the ROM to the latest and nope it didn't relock it stayed unlocked!

It's not on the sim card
lock information is found in the bootloader of the device, so it wil be not affected due a normal firmware upgrade
so if I replace the boot loader of the device then will it unlock the locked phone.
Just wondering if this means that my HD2 is unlocked. Also, is there anyway to check to see if it is without trying another sim card? Thanks
SPL & a Custom ROM will not SIM unlock your phone...if you bought the phone from from the carrier call them to get the unlock code or buy one online if you need SIM unlock.
I have a T-mobile Vibrant that i need to unlock for ATT but it doesnt want to unlock. Ive searched multiple ways to unlock it but they all seem to require a tmobile sim card which i do not have. Is there a Method i can unlock the phone without a Tmobile sim...Ive tried SGS Unlock too but keep on getting the Unknown Error.
I got a SIM unlock code from Tmobile, however it is not working with CM10, so I went back to the RUU and tried and it still didnt work. Any ideas of what I need to do?
contact the person you got the unlock code from to re-enter the code.. or you can always s-off your device and use the unlock sim for s-off method which would disable the sim lock on your phone
i recently bought a used N10 from ebay and while i checked the IMEI on tmobiles site (its clean), its sim locked.
i used @Paula2707cq awesome debloat script and was able to toggle the OEM unlock. i got the key and sent for the bootloader unlock token and hope to get it soon but i now have a question.
will unlocking the bootloader get rid of the sim lock? if not, do i have to go through tmo? i tried the phone with my mint mobile sim card and everything works but im going to wait to see if i can unlock the bootloader or im going to send the phone back. thanks for any and all help.

Simlock means the phone is locked to the network (tmo)..try what i said in other response
Even it's unlocked it wouldn't work on AT&T, a locked TMo phone(not Metro's) will work on TMo and it's MVNO just fine.
