And other more experienced users should read previous posts on the same thread by less experienced users of the forum... He has an XDA Exec, which should be SIM Free and therefore does not need the unlock tool. And one thing that gets my personal goat is people that post things like the one you did above.. When was the last time you tried to use the search engine on this forum, it is BAD. Just entering a simple search returns all sorts of none relevant rubbish.. You go away and type unlock and see what you get back. Then try and work out what is the right thread to look at.

drpink has only 1 post, and that is the one above. His opus is not considerable.
Although it's an easy reaction to blurt out your question immediately on this board, it's more beneficial to use the past posts as a useful library of knowledge, since those trying to help do get tired of answering the same questions many times.
Now, despite your insistence, I have to say that the HTC Universal does appear to have been locked by some operators. I have an O2 Exec which wasn’t sim locked. I have no idea if O2 did ever lock it, some people said they did, others didn’t. Assuming that drpink has a reason to be asking the question, then others have provided him with the solution.
Again, whether or not drpink’s Exec is locked, dcloutier has pointed him towards the solution. Again, assuming drpink has a reason to be asking the question, you telling him that it’s not locked doesn’t help him much.
I can say that Buzz (and the team) worked exceptionally hard on making the Universal unlocker, so I can say that the Universal is lockable, locked by some operators, and now unlockable.
Personal goat or not, drpink is a new board member. As such, he may or may not have seen the very useful post headed “Please read this before posting”, but the post is helpful to new board members and experienced posters alike. I read and respond to almost every post I can, and entirely by accident am now the second highest poster on this board. It helps those who want to help if posters provide a useful topic title.
The search isn’t very good, but does work, if used correctly. It’s not google, but as ever in life, if you ask the right question, fingers crossed, you might get the right answer. In this instance, searching for:
“universal AND simunlock”
returns 4 matches.

i havent read 1 post that says the O2 Exec is locked, if there is then I'll humbly appologise so to point a newcommer at an app they don't need is wrong.
I know the Universal was locked by most operators, the only operator I believe that shipped it unlocked is O2, I may be wrong of course, but as the post title identifies O2 Exec and the Users Operator Icon is O2 it is fair to assume that its an O2 device and thus unlocked.
I have an Exec which I will be ebaying soon unless someone on here can make a reasonable offer.
AFAIK mine was locked, My oroginal one that I bought in October wasn't, but that one had an accident with a car door and the replacement O2 sent me appears to have been locked (it wouldn't work with my Orange PAYG sim). Having used Buzz's unlocker, it now works perfectly (plus there is the advantage of SuperCID!) Has anyone else found this?
Hi, help,help,heip !!! need service manual,schematic diagram and exploded view for my Magician (O2 xda Mini) for repair.
my email [email protected] Russia
First of all, what you are looking for are normally proprietary documentation from HTC which is quite impossible to get unless you know someone from HTC and is willing to risk loosing his job. Secondly, google for it before posting.
xda o2 mini
WHETHER IT IS POSSIBLE TO FIND PARTIALLY? IN FACT ON OTHER MODELS IS. AND ON magician IS NOT PRESENT.
There's no need to shout!
good place to start is by browsing this sites wikki:
and if you ask nicely i might link it in this post for you,
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianResearch
ahah, christmass has come early my friend.
Whitemoo.
xda o2 mini
Thanks for that that is. I shall search.

Excuse for high tone, phone has broken in a month after the end of a guarantee.
hi
I get my i-mate PDAL last sunday, and upgrade it to wm6.
can anyone tell me my pdal is in Prophet catalog?
thanks.
No it is definitely not a prophet. (Just look at the picture next to this forum on the forums list)
In fact a quick look on pdadb.net reveals that it is not an HTC phone.
So please do not try to upgrade it using any ROMs for the Prophet because you will destroy your phone!
thank you first.
but i look for whole this forum ,and can't found any catalog like i-mate pdal. so, if i want to upgrade/change my wm6, where can i join?
As I wrote before - i-mate PDA-L is not made by HTC!
This forum deals with HTC phones, though sometimes discussion of other WM based devices like iPaq takes place in general forum.
So there is not and won't be a catalog for your device (sorry we can't open a sub forum for every phone out there).
I have not seen any such discussion on PDA-L and as far as I know no one is cooking ROMs for it.
You are welcome to ask in general forum and perhaps someone will give you more information then I can.
I'm so sorry that i don't know this forum is just talk about HTC machine.
I'll go to general forum for some answer what i need.
thank you again.
I love this forum. I'm a new member and haven't posted much but I've been reading a lot, and screwing around with my HTC Startrek. I'm also in the market for a new phone soon, and when it comes down to the Touch Pro or the X1, I like the fact that the Touch Pro has an overwhelming community here on XDA with an abundance of information available. I'm sure the X1 will have its own communities (some are already showing up on google), but will the X1 get its proper forum space here?
After all, it IS an HTC manufactured device for SE, and the Palm Treo 750 has its own section here... I don't see why not?!
The X1 is in it's own section already. This post is in the Sony xperia x1 Forum, I'm not quite sure what you mean?
Dave
X1 forum
And as the X1 is actually a HTC manufactured device and nearly identical to the Touch Pro (not including screen, camera or keyboard) the community here for the X1 should be pretty impressive.
I am just curious if they have fixed that terrible keyboard I keep reading about on the X1.
well currently the community for the x1 is nowhere near as large as the touch pro... but thats because its not out yet. if you look at the palm 750, it has its own section of the forum which consists of several child discussion areas. I was just wondering if the X1's community here will be large enough to warrant such an implementation for the X1 on xda. A strong support community (which xda offers) is important to myself and many others in the final selection of which device. I guess ill just have to wait and see!
Check out xperiancers.com
I'm hoping the X1 won't need a big section, because it will work great right out of the box. If people are happy with the stock ROM, there won't be a huge number of people cooking and trying new ROMs. And S-E runs the above site. If they do a good job of listening and responding to issues, maybe we won't need to have a community to solve problems.
I have a dream...
Regardless, they're releasing a software development kit for people to make their own interactive panels. Even if not to "fix" things, developers are going to be wanted to add content to a great device. Based on the SDK being free I think you'll see PLENTY of software support from large companies as well as individuals on this forum.
On a side note...
Finally after i type Xperia in google it doesnt suggest that i wanted Xeria
I ask, because seeing this forum, is the first time I've seen that mentioned.
In another forum (not XDA-dev) I saw the manufacturer listed as Inventec.
And in an HP IPAQ forum. someone asked if the HTC mini-USB to 3.5 or 2.5 audio adapters would work on the IPAQ 910. Someone else answered "no", saying that the HTC mini-USB ports are eleven pin, while the one on this IPAQ is ten pin.
If the phone were made by HTC, I would think that they would use the same kind of mini-USB port, as on their other phones.
Is it known for sure, that the IPAQ 910 was manufactured by HTC?
Has anyone here tried one of the mini-USB audio adapters made for HTC, on their IPAQ 910? If so, how well did it work?
HTC chargers seem to work.
Thanks for your feedback.
no it is not made by HTC.
for audio adapter , see here

Why is it listed here then, under "Other HTC manufactured phones-Sable"?
So, do you agree with those who say that the mini-USB audio adapters made for HTC phones, will not work well with the IPAQ 910?
It's OK to use the same chargers and sync cables though, no? They seem to work--I hope not harming the phone in some way.
because we don't have other better place to meet & group the threads together haha, so people just just post here for any HP IPAQ i suppose
anyway adapter made for HTC won't work on 91x because the pin-layout is different for audio.
It is ok to use the same cable for charge and sync because the charge and data transfer is a common standard in mini-usb. No audio is defined in the standard so manufacturer define their own-standard
Thanks for the info.
It is weird then, that manufacturers make their own proprietary headphone port, and then do not even make an adapter for it.
Shame on HP for doing so! (At least HTC makes an adapter for theirs, including one that has another mini-USB for charging, and a 2.5 and 3.5 headphone ports.)
-----------
Ha Ha. So the "HTC Sable" is a non-existent phone, an imaginary HTC phone, to list non-HTC phones under, so that the board admins don't know that people are discussing a (GASP!) non-HTC phone on their HTC-only board?
Oops, I hope they don't read this thread!
----------------------------------------------
By the way, Keyx, since you seem to be very technically knowledgeable, if you have a chance, please take a look at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3619813&posted=1#post3619813
and let me know, if you have any insight into the question.
If I had known about this board, I might have posted it here. Not knowing, I posted it in the general WinMo board.
-
HTC Sable exist and made by HTC, it is one of the older IPAQ model, i forgot the model number though
EDITED: look at the text under the main title of this subforum: Also known as HP iPAQ hw69xx (hw6915 / hw6925 / hw6945 / hw6965 / hw6910 / hw6920 / hw6940)
Traditionally a few IPAQ were made by HTC but not 61x/91x this time
I don't have a data plan now so can't really look into DUN issue..may be a few weeks after i can,definitely not now though

There is an IPAQ 910/912/914 forum there now, but zero posts there yet. I guess people are reluctant to post, if they think no one will read and respond there.
Someone has to start posting there........
I used to work on the HTC Juno (T-Mobile Shadow) in the Smartphone General section of xda-developers, and after a year or so they finally gave us our own sub-forum. They may eventually do the same here. You're right that there's a bit of an HTC-only vibe with the way the forum is organized, but certainly I've seen Toshiba and Samsung-manufacturered device ROMs around here too.
The benefits of staying with xda-developers are clear: we use the same tools and methods that are used for HTC devices. Not to mention that despite the new iPAQs having a different manufacturer, they share much of the same kinds of underlying hardware (i.e. Qualcomm chipset, ARM processor). Those who own an HP 61x or a 91x are likely to have owned an HTC device in the past and may own an HTC device in the future. It is nice for us to stay with the same community
The big irony, of course, is that we've seen far more progress on xda-developers for the 61x and the 91x than we have for the (older and uglier) iPAQ h6300, which was actually made by HTC. Just ask brewhoxs - he'll tell you all about how there's no custom ROM developed for that device at all
Maybe rather than jumping to other forums we should put the pressure on xda-devs moderators to give us a sub-forum of our own.

Well that's the problem .. the guys at WinMoDev made an agreement with XDA to keep out each others fishingpond. XDA for HTC-phones and WinMoDev for other. Although I must agree I haven't seen much life on WinMo, the forum being many times down for some reason.
So wether we keep 'hiding' in the Sable-forum, or move over depends on the posters and on the readers, of course.
Just my 2c

Really? This is the first I've heard of such a mutual no-compete agreement between the voluntary operators of two free forums.
Interesting. Not to toot anyone's horn, but we'd probably get a successful one-shot transition if keyx, sergiorus, ke_steve_le, Montecristo and myself all moved at the same time.
And maybe we should? Except winmodevelopers.co.cc says they are moving to new phpbb forums that will be at winmodevs.com. Plus when I visit the existing site it tries to install an unknown ActiveX control. Not cool!
Haha we should shop around wmexperts.com and ppcgeeks.com for competing trade offers

Hi,
Here's the topic in which Jay mentionned it ... The forum is still on the original *.forumer.com, so indeed rather confusing.
I use Firefox, no ActiveX seen or heared
Dirk
hey guys
im sorry to see you have had isues with the forum
at one point there was a very confusing time as we were gonna move to another brand of forum but that fell through, as for the downtime that was due to us perfecting the forum
one change that was implemented though as we have taken away all of the device forums this was mainly due to fatc that more and more device makers are bringing out winmo phones this makes it very hard for me and the other admins to keep track of
also we needed a place for non htc android devices to go
HOWEVER
the forum is up and running if you fancy moving there now
http://winmodevs.com
all the non htc devices are still welcome
also just to note the only reason there isnt a lot of posts is because if people dont se others helpoing they wont post so basically i need you devvers to get all you stuff moved over and theyll be a who load of new posters
