is there a way to unlock the t-mobile wing aka HTC Herald or P4350. i wanna make it work on boostmobile service. thanx
call t-mobile and ask them for the unlock code,tell them your going overseas.
it wont work on boost mobile.
But you could still call them and ask for the unlock code, correct?
T-Mobile
T-Mobile has an amazing unlock policy...
If you have a contract with them, just call 611 on your phone and request the unlock code...
Basically, if you're past your 30 day return window, and on a contract, they know they'll get their money back if you change carriers/early terminate...
But then again, with how helpful T-Mobile is, who would want to go to another carrier? ;-)
I'm actually sitting outside my store right now waiting for the FedEx guy to drop off my Wing so I can get on T-Mobile... (I just started working for T-Mobile 2 months ago, and I gotta say, their customer support is amazing by comparison)
+1 on asking T-Mobile. I have had excellent customer service from them, from them replacing a SIM card (the phone was lost, so I had the old SIM card disabled, and unlocked an inexpensive TracFone to work with the new one.)
If T-Mobile won't give the code, I'd hit up the usual denezins on the Internet for unlock stuff. www.imei-check.co.uk comes recommended, and can CID/SIM unlock the Wing for you for about $40.
I have some questions:
1. If I will change ROM to another version. Will it remove operator locking?
2. Or if I will bay code at byIMEI-unlocking service so how often I will need enter this code? Once? Or every rebooting, hard reseting, removing battery?
3. Tell me please and another ways to unlock my phone if I am located not in USA.
Thanks
1. changing the rom will not sim unlock your phone
2. if you go online and buy an unlock code you only have to enter it once, but you will have to enter a sim from another service provider
Hi All,
I have a problem with my Orange HTC hD i have just bought,which i wanted to unlock it and use it with other providers.I have found the unlock code after i have paid 15Gbp on ebay,and i have managed to unlock the first lock code the phone promt me which was called the "network lock".After unlocking this,i was prompt for a "Service provider lock".Is this a code that comes with my vodafone sim card or something similar?Can you guide on how i can unlock this?

Orange ROMs lock more than the basic phone functions. I unlocked my Tytn II's SIM (Orange France) and I can now make and receive calls with another provider's SIM card. Several orther functions, however, remain lock because descending lists offer only Orange as a choice. I suppose one has to get rid of the Orange ROM and use either the official HTC one or one of the bette cooked ROM.

Hi Lugi93,
I have paid already someone from ebay for the unlock code and he has provided me the Network unlock code so i have already unlocked the "network lock" but now the phone is asking me for the "Simlock code" and that is my basic problem.
Let me know,
Cheers,
I
Found the solution
I have found the solution via "wirelessadvisors" on ebay and unlocked my hTC.
Thanks guys anyway for your suggestions.
any answer to this i got the same problem unlocked with code now asking for service provider code tryed 234-33 but no luck any one can help thanks
I have just bought a HTC HERO that is locked to Orage from a friend yesterday, I trusted him so I didn't bother trying to see if it works on an Orange simcard. Anyways I took it to a phone shop to unlock it and the guy said i should come back the next day to get it. The next day he said he couldn't unlock it.
When I put an Orange simcard it just say "Emergency Call Only" on the top bar but when I put a different simcard it ask for unlock code. So does this mean the phone is blocked or could the unlock guy have messed with something?
Thanks for your response.
First I would confirm if it is actually locked to Orange, when you put and Orange sim in does it ask you for a code (simlock code)? If so put it in and see if you can get registered on the network, if that doesn't work try sims from different networks until you find which network it is locked to.
I have a ht hero originally on orange, unlock codes you can purchase do work on the modaco 2.8 rom.
The emergency service is something i was getting and still do from time to time very annoying. I have found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=579606 works.

sir i have code already but i have that problem.
If your phone status still on "unlocking sim" it's probably not the code from Orange but an HTC one (it doesn't work with the Orange firmware).
Can anyone please help me how to Unlock HTC HD2 from T-mobile?
Search ebay for UNIVERSAL UNLOCK UNLOCKED TURBO SIM CARD SAMSUNG NOKIA it worked for me and its under £5 too
You can call T-mobile direct and there will charge you £15.
It's the best and the safest way a guaranteed code, but you have to be with T-Mobile at least more than one month.
Just to add to this thread, you have to use a Windows Mobile ROM to SIM unlock the HD2. This is due to the fact that only Windows Mobile ROMe can access the bootloader, the IPL of bootloader is where the actual sim lock for the device and where the changes will be made on the device. You enter the code into SIM manager to unlock it.
I have just bought a used htc hd2 from t-mobile which has android on it.How to unlock it as it asks for the unlock code when I put a different sim on it?
Just call Tmo.. tell them that you're traveling abroad and need to use your phone with different provider. They will give you the unlock code free of charge. Done that with mine about a year ago. And now those phones are not in their prime anymore, do not think that you'll have any problem unlocking it through Tmo.....
Tester.
If your HD2 is from T-Mobile US and you have a plan with them, just give them a call. It should be free to get the code.
If not there are many places online to get an unlock code. DO NOT pay more than $10 for it though.
EDIT: just noticed this thread is from Feb 2010...
