May I know if I got an ATT Atrix 4G and unlock the bootloader on day 1. Do I still need carrier unlock code for using other carrier?
Shoundn't be carrier lock is sitting inside bootloader originally?
Thanks in advance.
I still needed to unlock my carrier. Think you do too.

Unlocking the bootloader and carrier unlock - are two completely different things.
The only way to carrier unlock the Atrix is by typing in the correct unlock code.

carrier lock should be some kind of low level program perform carrier check inside bootloader, right? (correct me if i wrong). So, these 2 things are NOT completely no relationship. If bootloader unlocked, logically thinking that there has to be some way bypass carrier lock.

no there isnt a way as of now. you need to unlock both seperately if you want sim unlock AND boot loader unlock. one does not unlock the other, you need to do both.
Hey guys i got a pretty straightforward question...
i have unlocked the bootloader and everything is great but now i'm in the need of unlocking my phone... how would i do that? could i relock bootloader and go to stock then unlock it by code provided by my carrier? and if yes would i be able to unlock the bootloader again afterwards?
EDIT:
Oh and by the way inside s1tool it says SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE
bump... nobody that can help me?
I read somewhere that the AT&T version comes with an unlocked bootloader, how do I tell if mine has been unlocked?
It comes with an unlockABLE bootloader. You can do so by going to htcdev.com and going through the unlock process.
Hello everyone. I just purchased an HTC One on AT&T. I want to root it, which from everything I have heard, means that I have to unlock the bootloader. I have no interest in flashing custom ROMS, I just want to use root apps like Titanium Backup and Wireless tether. If anyone knows about an exploit that allows for root without bootloader unlock, please let me know.
I also want to unlock the SIM/carrier lock via an unlock code. What I want to know is:
Should I do the SIM unlock first, then the bootloader unlock? Or the other way around?
Once the SIM/carrier lock is removed, will the bootloader unlock process have any effect on it?
Thank you,
Nick
Motochopper supposedly will root without bootloader unlock. Revone will grant s-off, allowing bootloader unlock without involving Htcdev. Sim unlock is unrelated and not affected by any of this.
how can i unlock the htc one without the simcard?
I have the phone, and the bootloader is unlocked and s-off running twrp (android version 4.4.2)
Is it even possible to do it without the simcard? i mean i know its been done on other phones with out the use of an unlock code.

If the bootloader shows to be unlocked, then the phone is unlocked? Now if you want to unlock the SIM, then you will need the SIM from the other provider otherwise the phone will not ask you to enter the unlock code. There is no other way to get it to ask for a SIM code.
