Hi everybody,
I'm new to this forum but I signed up to get some help so I expect to get some, I mean, maybe you guys know some things about these complicated phones
Today I bought an HTC Touch Diamond 2, and it will be delivered to me tomorrow. I bought it with an Hi subscription (dutch telecom provider) but my old phone subscription to Orange will only end at October, so thats's quiet a long time waiting. Untill then, I cannot use my Hi sim, so I really really want to put my Orange sim into my HTC Touch Diamond 2. But it's not unlocked, it has a Sim-Lock
So guys, can you please help me unlocking my HTC Touch Diamond 2? Maybe give me a program or something or a code I have to enter? I couldn't find anything on the internet so this is my last hope.
Thanks already!

Put a sim-card from another profider in it,
Does it work, the phone is unlocked.
Does it NOT work the phone is locked.

In your case is Starhub your profider.
Next to Starhub your Singapore has other profiders, try a sim-card from another.
He wanted to say provider,
Basicly your 'operator' or carrier
If your device is SIM locked, like the iPhones,
You cannot call or text anyone without the sim-card from AT&T
If you however sim-unlock your phone, It doesn't matter anymore
Now, I don't think there is a free one just yet... could take a while,
I think it's better to pay for the unlock then...
You could do alot worse than emailing your provider and asking them for a SIM unlock code (include your IMEI in the email).
I did this recently with Vodafone in the UK, expecting them to say it'll cost £££ blah blah blah, but much to my surprise they simply emailed me back with the code.
It all depends on which country you're in and the policy of your provider about unlocking handsets.
At the website of my profider, carrier or operator i can get the unlockcode by SMS!
Try like Mr Anderson discribed in post #9.
As we say in Holland: You have a NO, (Maybe) you can get a YES!

I could not come up with the right name anymore that's why i use provider, but yes i ment Operator and also carier is good.
I bought my TD2 without a contract and was therefor sim-unlocked.

This service is not free.
Please send me a Private Message for details.
P.S. you do not need to reflash, disassebly, hard reset your device!
Say how much and give 1 free SIM unlock away to a Mod of this site to confirm it's real and you may actually get some custom.

Sorry fella, but that was for another HTC product - Ameo, do you have a proof it works for ARTEMIS ?
If you can - like you did for AMEO, give 3 free codes away, and reduce your asking price...definitely below current T-Mobile rate (£15), then you may get some biz.
It is not a biz.
All money going to XDA project.
Ok I'am offering 3 free codes.
1st - to Gajet
2nd - to AD10
3d - to MaskedMarauder
no free codes left

Send one my way then !....and how much would it be ?
OK I got tupisdin's free unlock code and I can confirm that it works 100% to remove the SIM lock.
It was a simple code you enter directly to the Artemis, no need to fight Windows to flash, He provided a fast an efficient simple service that noone else claims to be able to offer except possibly your phone network themselves.
Now tupisdin has said honestly up fron that he wishes to charge for this and make some money for himself. I will leave it for him to provide complete details, but he will accept Paypal. I will say he's not asking anything like $100 that was bounded around in the Ameo thread. I have pointed out how much imei-check charge.
SIMPLY YES THIS WORKS
If you don't mind me blagging one of the free ones, I will try on my latest version softwarte O2 Orbit. Let me know if this is OK.
I have been on here for a while and can be trusted to tell the truth if it works or not.

Both of mine certainly are.
German Orbit - simlock free.
It may well be, I have not tried. All the other phone I have ever had from O2 were though, so it may well be.
IT WORKS !!!!

THIS CODE WORKS....period ! ! !
I tried an Orange, Vodafone and O2 SIMs...they all worked fine !
And I am not screaming it cos I got a free code, but because all you do is input a code, after inserting another Carrier SIM into your phone.
I can remember sleepness nights with pof, perjan(even bricking his phone)...and all the others trying means to provide a SIM unloker for the ARTEMIS....though theirs was to be a free one.
Now to the more serious bit......tupisdin.
I can see in other threads, people make donations to XDA Dev forum, and you give them the codes, others suggesting you want $100, by Western Union sent to you.
Make it clear now, what are the options for getting this code.
What are the costs ?
I would like to get a code. Can you tell me what you need from me and also what the costs are ? Hope to hear from you soon. Thxx already.
Bommy
Tupisdin secret
I wait on cod also. There now I do not it worry. tupisdin will not it make on forum code on free - this no loss. let it will take to grave secrets.
Different gods are on forum. I believe in pof !!! Prepare he in moment foundling. and again whole fame and splendour for him. !!!
And secret tupisdin ... he be unremembered becomes!

Is there any chance of getting sim unlock cheaper than imei-check??
I would be interested if the price were right, IMEI Check at the moment is a bit excessive

20 Pounds (about 30 euro) wasn't cheap but still the cheapest solution for me! With the simlock I was unable to call
so?

is there a free way to sim unlock the artemis?
Just purchased an mda compact III and it's sim locked
Any way to avoid paying another 30 € ?
- any safe way without ending up with a brick?
searched the forum but no definate answers
thanks

no free way.
i know of two ways to do it: imei-check or tupisdin. both are not free though.

I already made a contract with Orange, I get HTC touch HD, as we know, it is locked only for Orange. Is there any way to unlock it, to make it sim free.
Regards.
Yes, but so far there is no free tool. You can get an unlock code fo money.
thank you for your reply.
Do you recommend any? where I can find them? I will pay no problem

Are the orange phone directy re flashable too ?

Can´t help you with your problem, but next time please use a more meaningful thread title to attract the attention of people and also help the search engine...
"HTC touch HD" in a HTC Touch HD forum may not be the best attention getter, don´t you think?
Hi guys had a look around but still not 100% on the answers so ill ask.
( 1 ) I have a fully open networked HTC HD2 came like it out the box so can run any sim. I dont like the phone as in getting app's for it im not big on stuff like that. So im looking to get a new phone what i wont to no is if Ithe IMEI was blocked in the UK could the Phone be used in say the USA if I wonted to sell it ?
( 2 ) If the phone would work out side the UK would it still be open to any network like in the UK?
Thanks silly questions I know and sorry about that.

Since IMEI blacklists are only national (so in the country they were blocked), they will be usable out of the UK. But not inside. Not even with another provider while on vacation in the UK.
erm, are you asking whether you can report your phone lost or stolen, then selling it on?
OH ok thats fine then so if i was to have misplaced my phone then find it againe after its been blocked I could still sell it.
Thanks

I don't know, but I just submitted about 20 made up ones, all with a temporary email address.
It would be a shame if other people did the same
What they do is to use your real IMEI in a Phone, probably a knock off of apple, htc, nokia and so go on. Fake mobile phones ; )
Any luck? if true it would be great. I don't know why though I think it is some sort of scam.
So?
So what's the big deal if they use your imei in some fake phone? Are there any ramifications for the owner of the imei

Other than the system will not let duplicate IMEI's work at the same time, so if someone clones your phone, you could end up with a non working phone ...
OR the worst case , it does let them on and they get your calls and vice versa ...
So legally I don't think it would hurt the original owner, but could end up hurting in other ways ....
May be they need personal emails, not imei nubers.
For fishing, hacking and ...... etc.
I got my free unlock straight from T-mobile themselves.

hi. could you please tell us, how one can do the same, without having an actual t-mobile number (without signing in to their site)?
Will appreciate.
Doesn't T-mobile have a web chat on their support page, and I think you can just get an unlock code that way, provided you've been a customer for a year or something like that.
I read they will actually request the unlock code from HTC. I did it 3 weeks ago and I got the unlock code in the next 24h so I believe it is reliable although not instant if you're a TMO customer. you might as well try to contact HTC if they have a customer service in your country.
My problem was then that my phone never asked for the unlock code so it happened to be useless. I don't know if it's because I have a custom rom on my phone or what but it never prompted me for the unlock code although I followed the steps they recommend (shut down, insert different sim, turn on...)
