hello, i am new to this forum.do not know whether there is already a thread running on this topis.has anybody been successful in unlocking the sprint version of HTC touch diamond?
There is no such thing as a locked CDMA phone. Any CDMA phone can be used on any CDMA carrier, as long as the carrier agrees to allow that phone on their network.
If you need to get a hold of the MSL/SPC code, google a program called GetSPC.

Hello all,
I've been looking but haven't found the answer I'm hoping for
Out local teleco (MTS) is usually a couple of generations behind on hardware so the 6800 is not available here.
Bell Canada carries them as do, from what I can see, Sprint and Verizon...
My question if I was to acquire 1, is it possible to get it carrier unlocked so that I can get it connected to the MTS network...
Basically we need CDMA, 1xEVDO, wireless and a touch screen... if I cannot 'move' a 6800 to another carrier, is there one that anyone can suggest that meets these requirements?
thanks!
i dont think it needs to be "carrier unlocked" as it were, you just need a carrier that allows foriegn devices

Do you have a working SIM card from AT&T or T-Mobile in the SIM slot?

Call VZW and ask.
On ebay it's a ton of services about whitestone unlock, and my problem was an issue on the operating band of GSM for example in the USA you must use 950/1900 on other countries like Costa Rica you need 1800, thanks to all for your help
You should be able to contact VZW and have them unlock it so you can use whatever carrier SIM you have for the country/area you are in. The stock SIM is Vodaphone and I think will only work where Vodaphone service exists. Otherwise make sure the phone is in Global and not CDMA only. Go to the Settings Tab, click Menu then select Phone Network Mode select Network tab.
I called verizon and they gave me codes to unlock both my phones. I slapped an ATT sim into my imagio and it was working on the ATT network, no problem at all.
Hi, where do you enter the sim unlock code on Imagio?
Thanks.

I just got off the phone with Verizon in regard to this.
Below is what I found. The Global Verizon Rep will be happier if you enter the code while you are on the phone with them; they want to verify that it works. It actually took about 10 minutes.
Here is what I found: http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/htc-imagio/138569-how-unlock-verizon-imagio-sim-card.html
If you are going to be traveling abroad or simply want your Imagio to be unlocked its very easy to do and should only take about 3-5 minutes on the phone with Verizon.
Call 1(800)-711-8300 from a different phone, enter your Verizon phone number, then select option 2.
Tell them that you will be traveling abroad and plan to just buy a pre-paid SIM card when you get there, and that you simply need the unlock code for your phone. They will check your account standings, and then give you an 8 digit code.
You need to enter the code in the security section of your phone.
With TF3D...
Start>Settings> All Settings> Personal> Security
Without TF3D Enabled...
Start> Settings> Personal> Security
One you do this, soft reset your phone and you are all done. I can take my work phones SIM card (AT&T), put it in my Imagio, and use my Imagio for work now. I did not test the data yet because I do not have data on my AT&T plan. Although if anyone does this and wants to check it, keep in mind you will have to change the number for the data line. both Sprint and Verizon use #777. I am not sure what AT&T or TMobile use.
I have an Imagio from VERIZON.
I had unlocked the GSM network, Should I Unlock the CDMA network as well if I want to use the CDMA Net work?
or I jus need 1 unlock code for both GSM and CDMA?
So, I will have 2 no. in 1 phone one is injected, and another one is using sim card.
Is there a unlocker out for the PPC 6700, or is this phone unlocked already from Verizion, cant seem to find a unlocker for it
My understanding is that these CDMA carriers, Sprint and Verizon, can tell from the electronic serial numbers whether or not a phone was sold by them. If it wasn't, they simply refuse to activate it on their network (they will only allow it to roam on their network if it's activated by its native carrier). So unlocking is not relevant to these phones.
If you are referring to an unlocker for the bootloader, there is none needed.
Does anyone have info on what can be done with the "Alltel", Pocket PC, PPC6700, HTC Innovation PDA?
Since Alltel went kaput and was bought by Verizon, Verizon says unless you renewed your old Alltel plan under them, the phone is now useless.
Is that true or can it be connected to an existing Verizon account?
I tried searching everywhere and still no answers.
Does anyone know if it is possible to flash the Htc Hd2 to cricket or metropcs.
they are network providers, so i assume you mean unlock the phone to use them?
no flashing will not do that. you would need the network unlock code, however isn't metre cdma? if it then the hd2 cannot work on it.
Yes as long as the network uses GSM (sim cards )
So theres no way htc hd2 can be turned into cdma and be flashed to metro or cricket?
you cannot flash a phone to unlock it. as stated above you need the unlock code, you can get this from your network provider for approximately £15 just tell them you are leaving the country for a holiday and want to change your sim card to a local network sim card in the other country (to get a better rate). If you would prefer you can easily unlock your phone on the internet, again for aground £15-£20, just search on Google.
as for your other question about cdma im not to sure.
re: cdma i'm only 95% sure but i think you're out of luck, i think its a whole different hardware.

As far as I'm aware, Verizon phones are not "locked" per se. They are CDMA devices, so do not use a SIM card, and their ESN number must be registered on the carriers network in order to work.
So, to get a Verizon Tab to work on another CDMA network, you'd need to ask the new carrier to register the device's ESN on their network. Often this is much easier said than done, since some carriers (notably Verizon I'm told) do not like to register "foreign" devices on their networks.
I've no idea which carrier you want to use a Tab on, but if it's not a CDMA network, the Verizon Tab is of no use to you.

Dave
