Hello,this is my 1st post,so HI!
Anyways I just got a Tmobile wing hera110 at a yardsale for like 15$,I was soo happy till I put my at&t sim card in and it is asking me for a code,and after 3 days searching online,i have tried calling tmobile 2 diff times but since I am not a tmobile customer they wont help me.They suggested I call HTC so I did and they said that they where in contract with tmobile and can't/ won't provide the code to me.so they suck
also I don't know anyone who has a Tmobile account who could help me with this,if I did then I'd be set already.
So my only option left is to buy a code somewhere online,my question is,does anyone know a cheap,safe place where I can pay to unlock this phone?Again its a Tmobile HERA110 aka wing,I know that not all online phone unlocking sites are legit,I am just trying to find one that is not that expensive,preferably 19-20$,and not a scam.
Thanks,1shot2
i have unlocked one just now with a code from gsmliberty for $29. It unlocked the phone, but i tried with a simcard from ATT, it gets signal, recieve calls, but it dont make calls, then i tried with a claro simcard, and it wont get signal. The tmobile simcard works just good.

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
I just inherited my brother's phone, a wing he used in the states and i owuld like to use it in the UK. can anyone please help? im dying to try this manificent phone
google IMEI CHECK
i know about imei check but i was hoping there would be a free solution out there
unfortunately not at this time for the Wing.
Is the Sim Unlock Available for Wing
Is the Sim Unlock available for Wing Now or still not. Any help will be really appreciated.
No. it's been 2 days! haha
THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO SIM UNLOCK THE PHONE FOR FREE.
Have a T-Mobile user put their SIM card into the phone and call 611 from the phone. Go to Customer Service and inform them that you will be leaving the country and would like to unlock the phone so you can use international prepaid SIM cards to call your aunts and uncles in *insert non-US country here*. They will give you the unlock code for the phone.
This will only work if the T-Mobile user has had the T-Mobile service for more than 30 days. If you are able, have your brother do it from his SIM card since he had the phone previously.
Thanks for the advice. Works!
Ok, just for conversation. Lets say I want to get a new wing with my equipment protection from Tmo. Does a SIM unlock on my old wing make it useable for others?
Equipment protection? Huh? Are you talking about getting it replaced with the insurance? and giving your old one to someone else?
When the phone is locked, it ONLY works under T-mobile.
When the phone is unlocked, it will work with any carrier, ie TMO, ATT, etc..
How about Vodafone NL..
Is there any free solution to sim unlock it ..?
Anyone with a Herald/Atlas or any of its variants ... are all in the same boat. There's no free unlock solution as of yet.
AT&T and T-mobile both have the same policy on unlocks:
- Account must have existed for at least 3 months
- Must not have had an unlock request within the last 3 months
- (Generally) Must be outside the Buyer's Remorse period (30 days)
- Must not be one of the 'special' phones (Sidekick, iPhone)
If the Wing is an upgrade to your existing service, you can get it unlocked after 30 days.
New customers must wait 90 days.
Simple workaround: If you know someone on T-Mobile with an available unlock (one per 90 days, remember), you can just give them the IMEI number, make & model, and they can unlock it from there. They do not check if you're calling from that phone -- but the phone must still belong to the carrier/be branded with that carrier
SO if my phone is "lost" and i get a new phone. Is myold wing good to go for someone else?

Is someone working on unlock for Herald???
I just purchased a tmobile wing off ebay, that the seller claimed was "unlocked" so I could use it with cingular's network. Well I recieved the phone today and it was NOT unlocked. So to cut to the chase, can someone link me up, or tell me how to unlock it? Iam not a tmobile customer, so that is not an option, I've tried google searching for over 3 hours, every site wants money, and Ive even read about some of them not working, any help is appreciated.
The phone is probably CID unlocked, NOT SIM unlocked. A CID unlock means that you can install third party firmware.
I haven't tried unlocking my phone, so unfortunately, I can't help you there. The only thing I can think of is to call the guy you bought it from and ask him to call tmobile and get the unlock code. Sorry.
Just a thought but you can try this. If it doesn't work you have the disk to reload the phone. follow the directions to flash your wing to wm6.1. insert your cingular sim before you start the load. When it flashes and looks for a provider, should auto configure for cingular. Just a thought. Not sure if it will work.
Unlocked mine via http://www.imei-check.co.uk/heraldunlock.php
26 euro but works 100%
i would talk to the seller and possibly leave negative feedback if he isn't helpful.
you bought the phone because it was unlocked, if it truly is than he should make sure it works for you.
I am thinking of selling my hero for round £150 because i can just not sort out the problem it has so maybe some1 with abit more knowledge will be able to sort it. It all works fine apart from the problem with the sim card which is for some reason it does not register any sim cards. The phone is unlocked and i was using a 3 sim card in for about 2 months but then all of a sudden i lost connection and then i could not reconnect with any sim card =/ i have tried different firmwares and radios but nothing seems to help. It certainly isn't barred i know that so i really duno what is up with it but would be a bargin for someone who does know. P/M if your interested
It ssems like phone has been blocked.Did you buy it from previous user? Contact him/her , or the branded supplier with imei number for their explanation.
no it use to be on contract but had a problem and came off but it hadn't been blocked by them i was using it for a while after i had come off use to work fine then it just did this. I have heard there are problems with 3 sim cards sometimes thow so wondering if it was the sim cause other sims just get stuck on the registering bit like the sim unlock hasn't worked
Just curious, but why haven't you contacted whoever you bought the phone off?
Definitely sounds to me like the handset has been barred. If you bought it as part of a contract, but then cancelled the contract early, well it makes sense for the operator to bar the handset if you didn't send it back.
Quick call to 3 (assuming that's who you bought it from) should give you an answer.
no its a tmobile i shall ring them tomorrow see what they say
Wavesecure in ROM, allowing to lock / locate / wipe your device remotely in the event of loss and be notified if the SIM is changed.
that doesn't really solve none working sims though does it ?
iv just paid for an imei check and just waiting for the result now
this phone is blocked by tmobile but not by other networks that is why it registers on tmobile but wont make calls or texts so am wondering if its something to do with the unlock code iv put in =/
Are our hacked hd2 unlocked and able to work with At&t. I just got a hd7 and i want to give my gf the hd2. Thank you in advance.
no, buy a code online or ask the phone provider if it's a network phone.
if you call up t-mobile and tell them you want to unlock your hd2 you really dont even need to say what for they'll give you a code (for free) that will allow you to sim unlock your phone to be used on the at&t network. very simple process to do. just put in a at&t sim card and punch in a few numbers. thats it. if for what ever odd reason they dont want to give you a code you can always look on ebay i seen them just yesterday for $10.
