Dear all,
My friend bought an HTC HD2 from Amazon locked to T-mobile. He brought it to India. Now he wants to know if it can be unlocked using any method to use it with the service providers in India. Can it be unlocked after updating usina cooked rom.
Please reply.
Thanks
Ashok.S
or is there any other method i can use to unlock it. Somebody please reply
t-mobile hd2 india
yes.the unlocked t-mobile hd2 US does work in India. unlock it online- 19.99 $ .u get the code in 10th minutes.
i unlocked it through ebay for 15 bux... cheapest/fastest way...
Why don't you try chatting with the TMo customer service?
I got my HD2 while I was in Cali and brought it back with me when I came to India for summer. I talked them over the chat and I am waiting for them to get back to me with the code (which they said would take 5 days).
But, you would have to be a T-Mo customer for at least 40 days to get the code through them.

i am not a tmobile customer (rogers), and i don't have a credit card (well i do but i'm also FLAT BROKE) is there anyway i can unlock my htc dream?
+ how do you even go about unlocking the phone once you have the "code"
please answers are appreciated i am quite desperate i leave in a week (to europe) and have no money to buy a cell phone there
Unfortunately eBay is your only friend
The cheapest (and fastest) method I have seen is eBay. There are no other ways to unlock your phone. If you have a t-mobile phone on the rogers network, shouldn't your phone already be unlocked? If it is a G1 and not a Dream, that is.
Most people either unlock through the vendor in this case t mobile, or alternate sites offering unlocking services generally between 10-35 bucks. Most sites I've seen are around 25

and the second part of your question, "how do you even go about unlocking the phone once you have the "code""
you put a different carriers sim card in your phone and it will ask for the code.
just an update here i contacted rogers and they pretty much refused to give me the code, even if i paid them. found a trusted/guaranteed seller on ebay plan on trying that on thurs, will update with details
I tried to talk to Rogers about it too, right after the e911 debacle, but even in the time of need, the would not budge. The CSR tried to say that putting another SIM in my phone would work, LOL.
Where are you going in Europe? I can recommend a good provider for England and/or Italy
lisbon then porto form 1month then paris for another how did u get your phone unlocked?
When I was in Europe I already had an unlocked phone with my, an i-Mate. With my Dream, the second I put a foreign SIM in it and turned it on it asked for an unlock code, which I bought from eBay.
I have not been to Portugal, I almost went last January, they had a last minute sale for 8 nights Hotel+Flight+Rental car for $550 including taxes. I had to work though.

HSPL 3 will not sim unlock your phone. You would need to either A. Get the code from T-mobile or B. Get the code from a place like ebay or a similar unlocking company
so this is the only way to unlock sim ???
just find a Tmobile sales rep who is willing to unlock it for you, i got mine june 3, but only got the unit 3 weeks later and was only sent to asia(where i am now) last monday, but ive had the unlock code since june since i made sure i would get the unlock code, there are tmo sales reps willing to find a way just to make a sale, they usually arent the "Caucasian" sales reps... i not being racist but ive talked those reps and they all said no, while asian reps said yes
Hey guys ,
so i am sending a HD2 to my cuz in Asia , i need to unlock the phone to work there. What should i do .
Thanks
Get a SIM unlock code for it from eBay or someplace similiar. Should be about 15 bucks.
Or as a T-Mobile employee I can tell you to call customer care and ask them for the unlock codes. They will give it to you after 90 days of being in service with them.
There is no other way ?i bought the phone from someone else
? What do you mean? You have 2 options, either call T-Mobile if you are a T-Mobile customer, or purchase an unlock from somewhere like eBay or http://www.HTCunlock.com.

ok , i can call the Customer Service but one thing. this Phone i am trying to unlock is not the one i took out on their plan , i got it from diffrent person. I have 2 phone that i got from Tmobile and this is third HD2 that i bought from another person to send to Asia. I can unlock this third one from Tmobile ? Or i can only unlock those phones that i purchased from tmobile on my acc.
So wait, are you trying to unlock an iPhone, or an HD2? And are you actually a T-Mobile customer, and did you purchase the HD2 DIRECTLY FROM T-Mobile?

Sorry for a whole lot of confusions .
Idk where you got the Iphone from lol
I am a Tmobile customer for last 5 years, i have 2 line and i took out 2 HD2 when they came out this year . I bought a 3rd HD2 from a friend which i am sending to Asia.
I called Tmobile CS , told them i need to unlock and gave em the IMEM number , the CS Rep was very good , he told me i will get a email in couple of days.
Oh wow...I gotta lol at myself on that one..."Phone i" somehow turned into "iPhone" gawd I am dense sometimes!
Sorry for the late response. It doesn't "really" (in quotes for a reason) matter if you bought it from us or not. If you make a credible excuse to them we will help you unlock it. Example: You call customer care and say I am traveling to Asia and I do not want to take my HD2. A friend of mine sold me his because he didn't like it. I want to take his because if I lose it then I will not have to worry about it as much because it is not my primary number. Boom there you go.
Hi all,
I have been playing around with my STREAK that I got from DELL website unlocked. First, it was stuck in the Dell Logo after upgrading to 2.1 Got it fixed by installing O2 1.6 then upgrade to O2 2.2 Howevever, now it ask me for a network unlock code. Even when I am having it build 12332 baseband GAUSB1A131500-US.
please help.
Did you buy it unlocked or unsubsidized? Unsubsidized is buying the device full price without the carrier discount for extending or creating a 2 year contract with them. Unlocked is when you can use it with any networks SIM card.
Either way, call/email dell and tell them that you bought it unlocked and they should send you the Unlock code.
I called At&t and just told them that i'm gonna be traveling overseas and need the unlock code and they sent it to me right away
good luck
I would like to know if i flash over my phone to use Android will I then be able to use it on another Network?
on a different network no. rooting your phone does not sim unlock your device. if you call your provider they normally dont have any problem giving you an unlock code for your device. im on the tmobile network and i wanted to unlock my old phone to sell on ebay (unlock can fetch more $) so i called tmobile, they gave me an unlock code (free) i put a at&t sim in my phone to complete the process and it was done. really very simply.
i purchased the phone from CL and i was on a month to month plan with T Mobile for about a year and I did not renew this month. Do I have any options?

You can pay $30 on eBay and get unlock code for it - that will get it unlocked and then you can use it on any other network.
BTW - if you get the unlocking code while you have Android on your phone you can still unlock it with your code you get.
yea i've seen unlock codes on ebay as low as $10, it all depends on your phone.
i would still try t-mobile anyway and say you use to be a customer and you wanted to unlock your old phone so you can sell and use it on a different network. the most they can do is say no so there wouldn't be any harm done in still calling. i think that they would still do it. if you reach someone and they say no, hang up and try 1 last time. i always get conflicting stories everytime i call t-mobile anyway so you might just luck out.
(they unlocked an old phone i wasn't using with t-mobile, giving i still was under contract but they still unlocked a phone that wasn't on my contract)
I called T Mobile and told them I am going overseas and I need it unlocked the rep told me he would submit the request and I will get an email within 5 -7 days with instructions on how to unlock the phone. That is a long wait I did not know it took 7 days to do anything anymore. Oh well .
Thank you all for helping I appreciate it.
if you need to unlock a phone to go overseas i think its a different process so maybe thats why its so long because it only took me 10 mins to get the code from them.
T-Mobile uk charge £25 and theres a 28 day wait for them to snailmail the code to you.
Unlocking.com was £10 and 10 minutes.

Thank you for taking the time to contact T-Mobile. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide the unlock code at this time. After review of the account we have determined that the device is not in use with the corresponding mobile number. T-Mobile policies and procedures state that the device must be in use on the mobile number requesting the unlock code. If this is a new device please allow 3-4 business days prior to submitting a new request to allow your usage to update in our system.
Looks like I will have to pay...
That really doesn't make much sence because they unlocked a phone I no longer was using. I think I was using my hd2 for 6 months when they gave me the unlock code for my mytouch 3g slide. Well it was worth a shot...kinda goes back to me saying I always hear conflicting things from t-mobile.

I contacted T Mobile on 3 other occasions and recieved the same answer 1 manager told me to contact HTC Directly as that is how they get the unlock codes but that did not work.
However I found a company that provides you with the code. It took him 7 minutes and only cost $7.00. He had a perfect rating on ebay well 99.9% and he provided pre purchase QnA via direct email.
