[MOD][S-OFF] SIM Unlock Your HTC Amaze! - HTC Amaze 4G

Hello guys,
Here is a method (confirmed working by Binary) to SIM Unlock your HTC Amaze for other SIM cards for use on other GSM networks.
Before we begin I wish to inform you that I did not create this tool. It is the property of sieempi.
You MUST be S-OFF for this to work.
Usual disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. Use this mod at your own risk.
Instructions:
1) Go to this site: http://www.sieempi.eu/blog/2011/09/22/universal-sim-unlock-for-s-offed-htc-devices-536
2) You'll notice that the HTC Amaze is not listed in the supported devices, but the process does work.
3) Supply a valid IMEI and email address on the form on that page and where it says "Phone Type" put HTC Amaze 4G, and they will email you a Config.Dat file to put on the root of your external SD card.
4) Reboot into bootloader, select "SIMLock" and it'll apply the config file.
5) Follow the instructions on the phone and reboot when it tells you to. If you get an "OpenCID File Fail" error, this is normal, proceed anyway!
6) Once you've rebooted, your Amaze should be fully SIM Unlocked!
7) Put in a foreign SIM card and test it out
8) For data to work, you will need to configure that network's APN settings. Use this thread (thanks hasoon2000) for APN settings for the specific carrier: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428457
If you have any questions, please refer to the linked site as I will be limited in how I can help since I am not the original creator of the tool.
Credits:
Adrian Campeanu (sieempi) - for the tool, because you know, it's his intellectual property and stuff
Binary - for sharing the site that has the tool and for risking his device to make sure it works (THANKS!!! )
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272080
PS. I encourage donations to the tool maker who actually created this tool. You can find his donation button on the linked unlocking site.

I've decided to re-open this thread. I'm doing so, with the understanding that rules will be followed, and that there won't be any flaming, disruptive behavior, or nonsense. If for any reason, it starts up again, I will not hesitate to close and delete this thread.
With that said, have fun everybody, and behave yourselves!
~Danny

Alright, so anyone who's SIM unlocked their phone so far, report your feedback please. I don't have a foreign SIM that activated to test it out.

It actually worked. Thanks so much.

Enough of this. I made my decision. If this disruptive behavior continues, I'm going to start issuing infractions. Enough is enough already.

No, Binary. You received the infraction because you continued to create RP's after I made my decision. I also PM''d you requesting the RP's stop. I received a total of 14 rp's from you AFTER I made my decision. Stop bringing drama to the forums. This is your last warning.

I did it but i have a question, after you click SimLock, is it supposed to say "Open CID File Fail"?

Yes that is just fine. As long as your phone reboots and says sucess you are fine.

I did this method about 3+ weeks ago

Link to Droid Eris OTA MR4 download

Here is the official MR4 update Verizon released for the Eris. This is for the people who haven't got the update yet and can't wait. And for the people who don't know how to install it (like myself).
Click to Download
Instructions:
1.) Move it to the root folder of your SD card.
2.) Rename it "update.zip"
3.) Turn your phone off
4.) Turn it back on by pressing "Vol-Up & End/Power" until the phone starts.
5.) Wait 15 seconds -- Then press "Vol-Up & End/Power again"
6.) You should get a short menu, one entry of which will say something about "sdcard:update.zip"; choose that.
This update is keyed to only specific releases, namely leak-V3 and OTA2.1. It will abort on 1.5, leaks V1 & V2, and the original root-ROM.
Credit goes to Eris User
So I know this has been asked before, but I figure this is a safe place to ask again...
This is basically just a radio update, no? If it's more than that, what else is it? I'm wondering if I should put it on my wife's phone to cure some of the bugs that she's always complaining about.

New radio, new kernel, updated (Java) framework components, update HTC Sense apps - lots of fixes.
Here is a XDA post which details what gets patched or updated in the (July 2010) OTA
Probably a lot of minor bugfixes for things that lots of people never experience.

Could someone post a screen of the software information with the new RUU, please? I was going to call VZW and wanted to make sure I had the right information when they were going to crosscheck my numbers with theirs.
Thanks
this is going to be another one of my famous rookie questions.... but will this mess up my root?

Ok I go the update this morning via OTA and tried to install it & It came back with a ! inside a triangle Failed. I am Root only still running stock rom but have the updated over clock kernel. Is this my problem as to why it wont update? Also can I manually install it and then just have to re push SU? Or will it take root out and I just have to re-root?
Or should I not even worry about it and just run another rom?
Is there a new link to this?
Has someone uploaded this to a different location?
Google isn't finding it for me on any forums.
I am having the same issue. Can someone upload this to the git hub site? I am trying to return my eris and get a new one

[Flash Counter Reset][AT&T, Rogers, Telus, Bell] Reset your flash counter

First of all, big thanks to mastibeta for testing and confirming that it works.
Disclaimer
This is a dangerous method and could potentially brick your phone. The CWM update makes it a bit more foolproof, but if something fails, it is not my responsibility!
AT&T i717, Rogers i717R, Telus i717D & Bell i717M ONLY! (according to jpeg42, it also works with the ics leak)
Description
This resets the flash counter (kernel/recovery/... flashed through Odin) back to stock.
How to use
Download the zip file. Its an update-zip for cwm.
Put it on your sdcard, boot into recovery and flash it.
Fun Fact
- Samsung knows how many kernels/recoveries you've flashed through odin.
- The single counters are up to 255, so theoretically you can "reset" by flashing 256 of each (Samsung will still know you flashed something)
- Samsung knows what was the last thing you've flashed
- Flashing System is not counted.
Image (Thanks to sfb14)
Thanks to
Dagr8, Ciku, bigbiff, lpsi2000 - for providing the data to figure this out
Tearrek, loftydan - for rogers data
Jckpsa - for telus data
MrJoran - for bell data
mastibeta - for testing the first version it

first +10 char
My count is 38 already... Will try this later today.

Now we need someone with 0 counter to post his rogers block if you have a rogers with 0 counter pm me I will guide you to the process .
Thanks
Was a scary 10 seconds, but it definitely works. Need to get this man a Gnote.

if yuou can take a screenshot for all them non believers .
So we can apply this .zip file through CWM as many times as we want to get the counter reset, is this correct?
Not sure how i would go about getting a screen capture in download mode, via adb perhaps?
BRAVO... downloading this bad boy now.

[MOD | S-OFF] Remove Red HTC Developer Splash Screen Text

Description
Please read this entire post before attempting to flash this zip!
Be sure to read Post #2 as well
Flashing this zip REQUIRES your device to already be S-OFF.
This PJ75IMG.zip removes the following text from your splash screen:This build is for development purposes only.
Do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's written permission.
Failure to comply may lead to legal action.​This process (flashing a new bootloader) is dangerous and may possibly brick your device if done incorrectly. You have been warned.
Warning
As per LazyPanda's warning:This zip comes with NO WARRANTY (express or implied), and NO GUARANTEE OF FITNESS for any particular task. I have made every effort I can to make this a safe process for users however the author disclaims any liability for damage to your phone or other materials or devices used during this process. The entire risk of flashing this lies with you, the user. By downloading and/or flashing this you acknowledge and accept that the author is not liable for any loss, material or otherwise howsoever caused.​Usage
Place the PJ75IMG.zip on the root of your external sdcard. (Copy it right onto your sdcard, not in any folder)
Reboot the phone into the bootloader by either:
Powering off your phone completely, then hold Volume-Down and Power until the phone boots into the bootloader
If you have the android sdk set up, type 'adb reboot-bootloader'
Use my RegawMOD Rebooter
Then select the menu option "Bootloader" and press the power button.
If you rebooted the manual way (Volume-Down + Power) You should already be at this menu
It will load the PJ75IMG.zip from your sdcard and ask you to accept the flash.
Press Volume Up to flash
Once prompted, press Power to reboot
Pro-Tip #1 (thanks dsEVOlve): Remove the PJ75IMG.zip from your sdcard so it doesn't load next time you enter the bootloader.
Live Support
Join #RegawMOD on freenode for live support from me (regaw_leinad) or many other users.

EDIT: Can someone (that's S-OFF) run the RUU and post what it says? Locked I would assume. But still S-OFF? Like the 3D you had to run a command in fastboot (or adb, i can't remember) to get it to say S-ON after running revolutionary.

Its pretty self explanatory. Copy the zip file to the root of your sd card (not in a folder), reboot into your bootloader and the phone pretty much takes it from there.....

[Q] Install APKs trough CWM sdcard .zip?

I everyone im new but read a whole lot of hours to be able to come this "far"
Anyone what i did is 1. Root , 2. Unlock bootloader 3. Clockworkmod recovery , 4. Flash Codename Lungo
But i realized it had NO FileManager, Browser or 3rd party market installed
I can't find a proper "guide" or download source where to download Fdroid in a .zip file that i can flash trough CWM or do whatever app i like that way. The most important thing right now is that i can somehow install a FileManager that way i can atleast do more things and install apks how im used to
I tried AROMA but can't understand the terminal
:good:

First of all that kind of language is not tolerated on Xda!! :silly:
boomboomer was like me trying to help you by stopping you posting in the wrong forum because if you do any information or flashing of software from the wrong forum can brick your device. Now if you had done all the research you say you have done then you will know that I9300 international does not have a locked bootloader unless you have a magic phone that nobody else does! You may well have a I9300 but you did not unlock the bootloader! Also keep up the foul language (it will soon get you banned!

Man i couldn't Flash and install CWM if i didn't unlock the boot loader. You can think whatever you like i installed an APK called un-lock or something swiped "unlock bootload" and a green mark appear with avoice saying "that was easy".
So now go ahead and think whatever you like about it and stop telling me i write in the wrong forum when i have i9300 posting in Q&A help & troubleshooting section. Are there not one single person here who is normal who could post something instead of these two idiots.

The tablet has hardware buttons?
Snapdragon 660 have native support for HEVC, but should it work without problems with Mx Player with HW encoding? If anyone will buy this tablet, please check some video from http://jell.yfish.us/, especially for 10bit samples.

Well, it won't support calling function at least on the Chinese version. Stated on the China website small print right at the bottom.

Well that doesn't really bother me .....I'm about to hit the buy button just need to find out if the LTE version supports 3G Bands as well....as there is no LTE where I live. Seems from all I read that it only supports LTE so if it's confirmed I'd better get WiFi only....

Hello, I'm new here, I'd like to know if someone knows if the drawing pen that was compatible with the previous Mi pads is compatible with the Mi Pad 4. Because the main motivation for me to get one is to be able to draw, not perfectly like on a Wacom, when I'm on the go. Thank you for your answer
Hi everyone!
I intend to install it in a car and the hardware buttons will not be accessible, just the screen.
With that in mind, I wanted to ask if there's a way to make this tablet boot up when it gets power through the charging cord? Additionally, would there be a way to make it shut down, say, 5 minutes after charging is disengaged?
Or maybe there's a way to put it to sleep, or hibernate it?
For instance, would this work? play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=auto.boot
Or this? developwear.com/blog/2014/07/03/autobootstart-android-when-charger-is-connected/
I'm sorry I had to remove the http headers, the forum wouldn't let me post links any other way.

Would what?
Why doesn't this tablet have dual apps? Is it because mine isn't on the global ROM or is it missing from there too?
I also can't seem to install apk files anymore which is annoying since I can't flash gapps yet. Even with installation unknown sources allowed, I still can't install from file manager/chrome/Firefox, only way I can get apps is the mistore which if fairly useless. Is the app on mistore that downloads gapps on mistore still there, as I can't find it?
Hoping that once I get unlock permission I should be able to sort these issues out myself, but if anyone has some solutions in the meantime I'd appreciate it
