[Q] Generic ROM = Unlock?

Hey! Im new (obviously) and I really don't know much about these things but from what I understand, I can flash a generic 2.1 rom using this method onto a locked, unrooted AT&T x10a, correct?
Also, if I do install the Generic 2.1 rom, does that mean my phone will be unlocked?
Thank you!
Thank you! Short and sweet, I love it

Yes, you can flash it to any branded unrooted X10.

No. It will be unbranded, but it will still be locked to AT&T, and the only way to unlock the X10 at the moment is by paying for it.

Yes, it will be debranded.
NO, it will not be unlocked. You still have to use an AT&T SIM card. If you want to unlock it, go here and contact Lancez from post #10.

You will not have to unlock it again for any of those situations.

Yes, once a device is SIM unlocked, it stays that way (unless it is relocked manually).
So would I receive my updates direct from htc like a sim free handset or would the updates then come from the carrier the handset was originally locked to?

The update would come from the carrier but if you change carriers before you receive the update, you will not receive the update. It's better to update first, then unlock.
So let me get this right the handset is currently on orange but if I unlock it and put a Vodafone sim in it then I won't be able to update it to ics? Would I not even get the update from Vodafone? Or could I not get it by putting an orange sim back in after it's been unlocked and orange release the update

Vodafone may not have the update for that device. Yes, you could place your Orange SIM in it to receive the update if you don't receive it via Vodafone..

Depends on which firmware you flash. Anything above MJ9, yes..and by locking I mean bootloader..4.4.2 ND7 does still not have a Root option either..
Verizon note 2 can be used with other carriers locked (bootloader) and unlocked. It does not matter since the phone is GSM and CDMA capable
