Hi everyone!
It's my first post on this forum.
I've bought a new(even not unboxed) android on Ebay and there is one small problem to start it. Forst i need to unlock it, but for do it I need to start the phone, but the phone is asking me to register or login into google account. i can't register or login, because the internet connection is not avaliable in my country. Can someone please help me with this???
Thank you!
i didnt know that u need to go through the activation process to enter the unlock code, if that's true, your so screwed
Have you put in a sim card yet? any sim card?
If you put in your sim card (non-tmobile) it should ask for unlock code first.

It's not asking me any unlock code, in every g1 after you can start using the phone you need to register or login to g-mail

Hi Arthur_rus,
I don't know if you solved the problem you had with your android phone, i think you will find what you want here -

They have good Android support, if this doesn't help, try there HTC G1 support, it's free and easy.
Let me know hoe it turned out.
take care.

Hello. I have bought a HTC HD2 in Spain locked to Vodafone.
I have already installed HSPL2 and installed the portuguese offical ROM (insted of the default spanish).
However, the phone wont accepted my portuguese SIM card. What do i have to do to unlock it?
Tks
i answered your other duplicate post in the HSPL thread.
samsamuel said:
no, rom lock and sim lock are not connected. You need to either get the code from vodaphone spain, or buy an unlock code online.

heh,. dont be sorry.
No, i dont, i havent unlocked mine. I'm with O2 who have a free unlock service, BUT their 28 day service has taken 4 months so far, still no unlock code, hehe. Good job i dont need it unlocked!
There are a fair number of threads on here about sites like htcunlock.com (or whatever its called) with lots of feedback.
Put 'unlock hs2' into google, , loads of results.
I unlocked a T-Mobile USA & European HD2 here
Got codes back in under 48hrs & even contacted me to correct IMEI as I done a typo, oops ... codes worked fine & are so simple to use.
Worth noting you will need to be on WM OS to unlock the HD2, fortunately all our work HD2s are on WM OS .
you can contact your service provider

Actually you don't need to be!
I had my Tmo HD2 on Android when I put my FarEasTone SIM in. It just asked me to enter the unlock code and I did, it worked just fine.

It was a NAND ROM.
I was able to easily root my Bravo using SuperOneClick. However when I insert a T-Mobile Sim, It is asking me for a "Sim Network unlock PIN". I assumed it is still carrier lock to AT&T. Is there a easy way do a carrier unlock??
I know is rooted. I get the "#" prompt after issuing an su command.
PLease help.
If i have time ill upload my tmobile rom in next couple days
Might work

Yes, it's absolutely free. You only needs register on forum, then press yellow button "Получить Unlock code" on bottom (from left side) any forum topic and enter in open window your phone model, carrier and IMEI.
Thanks, let me try it. I will let you know.

Well I recently sent my IMEI for another but I received nothing, I had to write to some of the moderator so that he sent me the code.
I have unlocked two bravos now, today I received the code for the other bravo I bought!
Easiest way to get your Sim unlock code
Your Sim unlock or subsidy code is made from the IMEI number on your phone. The most relyable codes come from the carrier that the phone belongs to. E.G. I took me 10 mins to get my subsidy code from AT&T, That includes my waiting and hold times. If they won't give it to you just tell them your going overseas for awhile and they'll be more willing to give it to you. If you found this helpful there's a thanks buttion below. Give it a push!
i just got mine unlocked from the russain forum, they work real fast , its awesome
hmmmmmmmmmmm
I tried the russain forum and I couldn't even get past the registration part. The Google Translator just came up with an error after error. I was getting so frustrated I just gave up for now.
To alexey_tolstyh : Did you get my PM I sent you?
My g/f called AT&T today and told them she bought the phone from someone that had an account with AT&T and that she needed an unlock code for it. The Rep. asked her for the IMEI number and then gave her the unlock code after about a minute. The call lasted about 7 minutes. Wow what a surprise.
If anyone needs a bravo unlocked just pm or email me. I have an account on the Russia forum and my google works. [email protected] i'll get you your code as soon as i get it.

can this phone when unlocked get setup the google activation screen with any sim?

Probably yes. Unlock-process (with unlock code) simply removes lock and after it you can use any sim.
But...
Official ROM with Android 1.5 does not allow skip google activation. You need setup it at startup.
I don't remember what happened on Android 1.6
Official ROMs with Android 2.1+ can skip google activation to setup it later.

i said probably yes too.... but i would like to know anyone has actually got it working with any network other than t mobile or att with a unlocked phone
What exactly do you want?
Unlock-code will remove lock from T-Mobile. After that you can use any mobile operator's sim. Any GSM sim...
If you want use mobile internet, but phone does not know apn-settings for your provider - add them manually...

thats exactly what i wanted to know.. thanks alot
So I have been searching around here for quite a long time and the only solutions that I found is either to ask one from T mobile or to buy an unlock code.
My question is, is there a rom or something that I could flash so that my hd2 would be sim unlocked?
Or is there a way to sim unlock this for free besides asking the code from T mobile?
Many thanks to those who would answer
edit:
or maybe someone who is a T mobile user could request a sim unlock code for me. It would be greatly appreciated

I am not a T-Mobile user, and I guess you are not too. Your best bet and easiest is probably buying an unlock code. You could search some of the threads and see which online services are the best. No ROM can unlock the SIM on your phone.

Yep, two options, no more.
If you can find a download for a LEODIAG.zip file you can SIM unlock it with that. You run the file just like you would if you were going to flash a ROM via SD card. Just follow the on screen instructions select yes to everything and when the process is done either do a battery pull or press the reset button to boot the device back into the RoM. Now I am not sure if you absolutely have to have a Windows Mobile ROM on the device when you do this but I suggest you flash Windows Mobile ROM before you run the LEODIAG. zip just to be safe.

can this be done while running windows mobile and not having magdlr/cwm?
edit:
so I found a LEODIAG.zip and I saw on the thread that it doesn't really sim unlock your phone.
have you already unlocked a phone using this way? if yes, please do tell the specific steps
I've played with leodiag and I'm pretty sure it can't unlock it. (Otherwise I'm sure we'd all know about it,, ,we've had Leodiag a long time)
I've attached it,,its not really a zip, I just added .zip for the file upload filter.

After reading your post Sam I think you are correct I confused myself yesterday cause I was thinking about me using a DIAG file to unlock my Sensation. But there is another option to SIM unlock the HD2, you can use the XTC Clip to SIM unlock it and it does use a LEODIAG.nbh file bit it is not all it uses. With all the numerous videos on YouTube I can not believe it is not a better video on using the XTC Clip with the HD2, in fact I can only find the same two videos I found the first time I looked on YouTube several months ago. The below is the best of the two.
not unlock but is a good solution for me...
I buy a Simple Mobile sim card from ebay .99 cents and i just make a number portability by myself . Well done.. i have my same phone number but with simple mobile in tmobile phone. Actually simple moblie work on all tmobile phones.

Try change to Simple Mobile. Its work for me. My wife has a htc leo and i have a galaxy 2 both tmobile. We are simple mobile now.
The new game for most of download
--Wind-up Knight
--Mega Jump
--Cut ropes
leodiag will not unlock your network.
If anybody has experience, can someone guide me to a good site which does unlocking for the TMobile Prism and how much they charge.
Hi all just bought a new Z1 on Virgin/T mobile and asked Virgin for the unlock code which they charge £15:32p for.
My question is they told me it would be sent in the post and I take it is some type of code they send me but how or what is the sequence to enter the code to make my Z1 unlocked to all networks.

All you need to do is insert a working SIM card from another provider, power up the device and follow the instructions. Really easy.

Many thanks for the quick reply and can't understand why they have to send the code via post rather than just telling me over the telephone after my payment was cleared and must only be for security reasons.
Be careful when you enter the code, you only have 3 chances to enter the correct code before the phone becomes permanently locked.
