Has anyone knows if the JesStream is SIM Locked to AT&T or is it possible to use a different Operator SIM ?
Anyone tried ?
It's SIM locked to AT&T.
Does anyone no if ATT will unlock them so you can use a local sim when travelling internationally?

...or if it can be unlocked with some other tools?
Seen a lot of offers for IMEI unlock code for jetstream around the net. Anyone tried that? fake?
Having mine shipped tomm to the middle east...already obtained the IMEI and had it unlocked by one of those sites you mentioned...will update next week when I receive it
I got mine sent to me by a friend in the states, it was bought without a plan and came locked to at&t, I called them and explained I live in Australia but they said they couldn't unlock it. I was able to get an unlock code and made a video about it here http://youtu.be/a8eN0roRxHQ
Now it is unlocked hope that helps
Thank you everybody for feedback!
Great News - will try unlocking my HTC JetStream which will use a Middle East carrier data SIM & will update - thanks for the hint !!!
Perfectly unlocked to used with any SIM, I paid 25$ to HTCIMEIUNLOCK, waited 15 minutes, got the unlocking code, entered it and ...WOW !!! SIM unlocked.
Working perfectly on ORANGE network in Israel. If anyone wants to see here it is:

Thank you for the feedback, everybody! Definitely going to find some one with US social security number now!
Buying from outside the USA
I saw these people will sell to international customers. I do not know anything about them, though.
I have ordered mine from AT&T through a friend.

Hm Interesting.
I got my hands on a HTC jetstream test machine for their engineers and it didn't come locked. Had AT&T Logos on it as well. Could just be because it was for the Taiwan Engineers so they didn't lock it. Quite interesting.
Can anyone verified if Jetstream gets 3G/3.5G speed on US T-Mobile sim card with AWS frequency? Or just edge? Someone from XDA posted the Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcZlljP62Ew&feature=youtu.be) video saying it works on Orange network, but I realized the device was only getting "edge".

didnt work for me getting the following error, any idea why?
this is a screenshot http://imm.io/cFOx
Hi,
Was wondering if the sim unlock will cause a change in the root or if the root could interfere with the sim unlock or if any future updates will revert the sim unlock to sim lock?
Wanted to be sure before unlocking the sim.

I unlocked my Jetstream a couple of months ago. I rooted the jetstream last week and didn't see any issues. Although now I am bricked because of an unrelated reason. But you won't see any problems with unlocking your SIM.

Thank you for the reply. Will unlock mine soon then.
Rooted first but now cannot sim unlock
Hello Everyone,
I have a Jetstream ATT which I rooted with developer d00mlord's stuff. Recently I decided to unlock it from the ATT network. The unlock code says unlock successful, but after rebooting it comes back up with the same locked screen. This will happen over and over again. This is happening with an ATT sim card too, so that I cannot use the data features with anything but wifi. The company who provided the unlock code tells me it may be due to the tablet having been rooted, and that I will need to factory reset everything. So, I am hoping that someone might be able to tell me what I should do. I have noticed that this thread addresses the sim unlock first and then a root afterwards, but not the other way around. I cannot seem to find a thread that is more relevant. This is my first posting and I am brand n00b so thank you very much for even reading this over.
when you say locked screen..what exactly do you mean?
for other sims to work you need to add a proper APN (maybe even for at&t after the unlocking). try googling: "the name of your provider + APN settings"
and add it to the settings>wireless>mobile networks
I swapped my SIM card for a T-Mobile one and my phone asked for a 'Network Unlock PIN' even after I put the AT&T one back on it. I called AT&T and they gave me the code so I can use the phone on any network and it did not work at all. My phone is in a unusable state. I even got the code from a 3rd party and they gave me exactly the same number AT&T did. Any help would be deeply appreciated.
Theres a guide here which involves flashing a different radio. Search out, doesnt work 100% but it might to you.

Have you solved the problem yet? I have the same problem I even sent in the phone twice to Motorola for repair and that didn't work.
Sorry I don't check this website often. I went to a Device Support center and they replaced it for me. All I did was get rid of the "Unlocked" message and messed it up so it won't boot up. But I forgot to check if flashing the baseband and radio.
All basebands can be found here (Latest should be the best):
http://www.TecKnoZ.com/Android/Atrix/Baseband/ATT/
Tools to flash this files can be found here:
http://www.TecKnoZ.com/Android/Atrix/Tools.zip
As for the radio, just Google Atrix 4G radio. I will upload it to TecKnoZ later on
Let me know what happens
Don't see how flashing a radio to your phone is going to fix this.
What is the exact error message you are getting?
Edit: Try 5555 or 6666 and see if that does anything?
The thread referenced to solve this ....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356121
Hi all,
I'll explain my situation. I had a work supplied HTC Sensation. The most god-awful handset known to mankind... except the iPhone. I digress. We are on Vodafone UK. When it came to renewing the work phones I was given an "upgrade" iPhone 5s. Long story short, I'm not using it. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which was on T-Mobile. I was given it and I thought I'd give it a go as it has to be better than the HTC Sensation.
Firstly I put in my Vodafone SIM. As I expected it didn't work. I have checked the IMEI number and it hasn't been blacklisted. So I thought I'd unlock the phone and root it. I followed the advice in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365701
After the first go of installing Jellybean which is what was on there initially I got to the end, rooted it and it wouldn't unlock using the method given. The method goes on to say that it works with ICS. So, I went through it again and installed ICS. Rooted it. Ran the unlock. Still locked.
Question 1: Is SIM lock the same thing as Network Lock?
At the moment, I have the stock ROM from the above thread for ICS installed. 4.0.3 I think it is. If I put my Vodafone UK SIM in this phone, when I try to make a call it says "Not registered on network". Tried following lots of advice in different threads. None worked. I thought, maybe that it can't register on the network as I am boosting my signal through a Sure Signal. I tried going to a place where I know I would normally get signal and tried doing it there. Still no luck. I keep digging and I come across the DEBUG MENU on the device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1882796&page=4
It suggests this:
dial "*#197328640#" to enter debug menu
click "6 [common]"
click "6 [nv rebuild]"
click "2 [erases three partition!]"
Except in the 3rd option there is no menu option 2. I have kept digging and then came across the "Personalizatiob Status" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740167) and it shows this:
Network Lock
[OFF]
Network Subnet Lock
[OFF]
SP Lock
[OFF]
CP Lock
[OFF]
Please note that during all this my Vodafone SIM is NOT in this phone. It is in the HTC Sensation and is working just fine.
Question 2: Do I have to have my SIM in the phone when I do all this?
Question 3: How can I get this phone to register on the network with my existing Vodafone UK SIM that is working just fine?
I've tried the Galaxy S2 Unlock apps on the market store. The unlock code and unfreeze code show gibberish.
What am I missing? I don't actually care for using the stock Samsung ROMs because the phone is way out of warranty anyway. I just want to avoid having to use the iPhone I've been given.
Any advice welcome.
Any advice from anyone?
Cheers.

If you dont know what it is; then one would presume you havent tried it.
You can do a google or xda search, or charge up the iphone.........

Nope, haven't tried that one. I will give it a go later on this evening. I've tried a couple of unlockers that have been recommended in other threads and neither have worked. I'll keep you posted.
Any thoughts on the other questions I had on the original post?
With regards to the iPhone, I think I'd rather stick with the HTC Sensation despite its multiple daily crashes/restarts and almost constant need for recharging.
I tried the app and it said everything was unlocked except for CSC Lock. Now, I did some reading on that lock and that seems to be a geographic lock applied by Samsung. As this phone was bought in the UK and I'm putting a UK sim in it, then this won't affect me because both the original TMobile SIM and my Vodafone SIM are UK.
It said my unlock code was 00000000. I doubt it is that, but on the slim chance it is, where do I even put the unlock code in?
Attached is a screenshot of the lock status from GalaxSim by Spocky.
It now shows everything is unlocked. Any ideas?
I can see the sim operator is listed as Vodafone and the registered operator is O2 according to that. Weird as it had a working T-Mobile sim in it prior to my getting it.
Thanks.
Any further ideas? There has to be something I've missed.
Well, I have still not managed to find out why this phone won't connect to the network. Sadly my old HTC Sensation has pretty much now become unusable and I've had no choice but to start using the iPhone provided by my work as I've not been successful in getting the S2 up and running.
I cannot believe just how bad the iPhone is. I've always said they were rubbish from day one despite having never owned one. Now I have one, I can justifiably say that I was correct in that they are dreadful things, however, I didn't quite realise just how rubbish they really are. Now I know.
Hi, I have a few questions:
1) How do you check the authenticity of the S5? What I mean is to make sure I have not acquired one of those cheap rip off's that look like a gs5, feel like one, but in reality that is NOT one...cloned gs5 with inferior quality in other words?
2) How can I check to see if the phone is blacklisted WITHOUT a sim card?
3) How do I check to see if its region locked or carrier locked?
I've browsed through 10 PAGES looking for info that I have not came across yet, which is why Im posting it here.
Edit: I also need to know how to check if the bootloader is locked as well.
1. You really never know. You would need to see it in person.
2. Plug the IMEI into swappa.com to see the status.
3. You can't unless you have it in person and test another SIM card.
4. The bootloader is unlocked for all G900T phones. No way to lock it.

I have the G900T in person...any idea's for what I need to look for?
Having an unlocked bootloader is what every one prefer to have, correct? I forgot why its important to have an unlocked bootloader...haven't touched this subject since the Evo lite came out (one with keyboard)
Will any sim card from any network work? Or would it need to be another sim card from T-Mo? Actually I need to brush up my understandings on sim cards as well, I've never owned a phone that required a sim card. Looks like I already have my work cut out for me, a whole lot of damn reading to do

If you have it, just download the app "CPU z" and post a screenshot here. I'll be able to tell if it's real or not.
Any sim card from ANOTHER carrier will work. A tmobile sim card is useless because it's meant to work with it.
Go here: http://swappa.com/esn to check if it's blacklisted or financed. You can get the IMEI from the Settings>About menu.
Has anyone found a reliable way to sim unlock the sprint version of this phone yet? I been looking into the threads on XDA and google, doesn't seem like theres a way yet?
Also does anyone know if i'd be able to use this phone on gsm carriers in canada after unlocking?
Thanks for future replies!!
http://www.htcunlockingservice.com/htc-phone-unlock-network/CDMA-EVDO-REV-A--USA--htc-one-m9.htm.htm i found this site for cdma devices, has anyone tried this site b4?
So far none of the methods used for m7 and m8 work. Trying to gather info and see. Any old hand willing to lend some help?
I'm confused, I thought this was a global phone and thus I would be able to pop in a sim from another country and have it work automatically? Either that or be able to get an unlock code directly from sprint. Was I wrong by assuming this? : I'm going out of country in two weeks and more than likely am screwed if this is the case D:
Im not sure but I think this may work
http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...guide-sim-unlock-lollipop-htc-one-m8-t3074469
Just tell me every details you get
Even if you did find a way to simunlock it it wouldn't do you much good as the Sprint M9 lacks the radio frequencies required to work on most other domestic carriers:
http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/...rock-out-with-their-flagships-for-the-season/
Second, the One M9 was not tested, thus is not authorized for domestic GSM/W-CDMA bands. Rabid phone unlockers under the new Sprint domestic unlocking policy, consider yourselves forewarned.

Comfirm, not work this method. Nothing happen when I touch Start button
when i try to flash the files from the instructions twrp just restarts. anyone knows why this is happening? and how to fix it
I bought an HTC One M9 that was supposed to be unbranded and unlocked and turned out to be a Sprint locked phone.
The guy who sold it to me was able to get the unlock codes.. but I am outside the US and trying to unlock the phone requests an update (i assume from the carrier).
But as I am outside of the US i have no link to the carrier..
Is there anyway to force the sim unlock so i can enter the code?
When I put in the sim, it says SIMLock enabled contact customer service.
Sim Unlock Sprint HTC One M9 outside the US?!
Trying to sim unlock the Sprint HTC One M9 variant. I've managed to unlock the bootloader and root the device but now I'm stuck with the next step. I live outside the US so Sprint cant help me and the phone hasn't been activated on Sprint. I was hoping i could sim unlock this the same way I did with my M7 but no luck? Help anyone?
Okay, I have a question. I have a Sprint HTC One M9, and I want to go to the T-Mobile store tomorrow and get a T-Mobile SIM for it. I'm not allowed to post a link to the page I'm referencing (under 10 posts), but according to Sprint's page "FAQs about Unlocking Your Sprint Device":
Under the second bold question, where it says "Will Sprint notify me when my device is eligible to be unlocked/has been unlocked?": It says all DSU-capable devices are automatically unlocked. This means that I should be able to go to T-Mobile tomorrow and get the SIM card and just put it in the phone for it to work, correct?
Sorry for the noob question. Definitely appreciate any help.

Nope it's still going to be locked. I bought my phone outright from HTC and spent hours trying to call Sprint (both regular and international support) and get it domestically unlocked, and all they give me is the run around and my MSL. They keep saying the new provider can use the MSL to reprogram the phone to make it work, which I believe is what happens when you flash to a prepaid CDMA carrier, not for GSM.
I kept arguing (with the call center manager) and went over the terms on the Sprint website to no avail. They'll unlock the SIM for international use no problem, but domestically, they will say it's impossible.
I've only heard of 1 other person from the Sprint forums getting the DSU unlock on the M9 and it was a pain for him as well. I pretty much gave up. Not worth the hassle. If you get yours domestically unlocked, please let me know and I may try again.

as I know this is international unlock. so when you will arrive to your country you will need just local sim card and it will work well if the phone was unlocked correctly before
