Yes, phone unlock is permanent unless you choose to relock it... and not many people do .

I haven't used my Touch HD in a very long time and when I turn it on now (dont remember what happened) it says upgrade ROM code error please try again. Does HTC have an upgrade for it? I live in the US and their site doesn't show anything about the phone, used europe site but gave me a no updates for that serial number. I am guessing that a stock ROM from HTC would fix this problem as the phone is not unlocked.
Shipped roms can be found here. Hope this helps.
If you receive "Upgrade ROM code error" then you will need to flash original stock rom which was on your device, i.e. not any stock rom but the original one. Your original stock rom should flash whether it says 'usb' or 'serial' at bottom of bootloader.
Link to stock roms has been provided in post above
Thanks
Thanks a lot, I haven't used that phone for probably a year so I hope that fixes it. I cannot wait to use that phone again, since I paid good money for it.

Did you follow this guide and put either USPL or HSPL on your device first?
Before flashing anything, its always best to read the stickies (thread stuck at top of each forum which provide guides, references etc). My advice would be to read this
Hello everyone!
i have one t-mobile branded firmware htc hd2 which i bought it from and uk based ebay seller..its unlock..and i can recieve and make calls..
but im not able to use internet on the phone bcos it has settings for t-mobile network..
and i also tried to upgrade it through htc website but whenever im trying it says these updates are not for this serial number...
kindly help me in debranding my phone so that i can use this in australia with full functions..thanks a lot in advance..

Hey peepolz,
I just purchased a used T-Mobile HD2 for some rom tinkering. I'll be using it in India. Was wondering if I needed to unlock the sim through WinMo 6.5 before installing Android or would installing an Android Rom over WinMo automatically unlock it, since it is practically a completely new software over the old.?

a) No.
b) Read guides in sticky first before asking questions.
c) Wrong forum. Please post question in the "questions" forum, this is for posting ROM's/Builds and related development ONLY.

1) No what? It gets unlocked after putting in Android or needs to be unlocked?
2) Sorry, my bad.
3) Moderator, please pardon and oblige.
It neither requires SIM unlocking, or does it. (Assuming you're using the correct provider's SIM!)
In simpler words, Android does not sim unlock your phone.
Sent from my HD2 running Android on NAND
unlock the HD2 for 20$.. there are few sites available.. i tried with this way and it works good in Indian SIM
if you bought without any contract, call Tmobile customer care and get the unlock code...
once it's unlocked you can use it in India..
Installing rom won't unlock the SIM lock with tmobile
Thnx Guys.
Hey guys,
I'm pretty sure that this question has already been answered but after going through many threads, I still don't get it, haha.
I have got a MDA Touch Plus (Htc Touch Dual) from T-Mobile UK which is set with Windows Mobile 6.0 (version from 2008, the oldest one I believe). I'd like to update it to WM 6.1 or above (6.5 ?) but I have no idea how to do that.
I tried to get the official version of WM 6.1 from the htc's website, it said that the software wasn't suitable for my device.
I managed to download it anyway using another HTC Dual Touch's serial number but I don't feel confident trying to install it when the website stated that it wasn't suitable.
Here are my questions then:
- Is there a risk of damaging the mobile phone if I try to install the official version that wasn't apparently suitable for the mobile phone ?
- Where can I get a version of WM 6.1/6.5 that will work with my phone ?
- Is there a guide to install it ?
- My phone is unlocked so I can use my Orange's Sim as well, by updating it using an unofficial version of WM, will the phone stay unlock ?
I apologise if my questions are quite silly but I haven't got any experience in customing ROMs and all that kind of stuff ^^"
Many thanks,
Tomas

I checked that post and that's how I made my way to the Main HardSpl/uspl (whatever it means) thread actually.
I found some interesting stuff on how to proceed, I'm just not really sure of what I'm doing.
Thanks again

Sorry to ask this question, It's a simple one but all the threads seem to go into too much info. I've hunted through numerous threads, but maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
I'm a Win 6.5 kind of person and Know nothing whatsoever about Android (Until my next upgrade (Sensation Hopefully))
In 2010 I bought my daughter a T-mobile UK Hero, unlocked it and is now running with an O2 UK sim.
She has never recieved an over the air update to 2.1, is this because it should come from T-mo and she now has O2 Apn settings??? On 1.5, I can't even find "Check for Updates" in the menu.
Is there an easy way and a step by step guide to this?
I'd like to use a stock rom, as I'll have her and everyone else to answer to if anything goes wrong.
Is there a thread or glossary that explains upgrading procedures and words like rooting etc. as all this seems a little different to Win Mo.
Thanks

also, please post [Q] threads in the Q&A section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=511
if you never want to root your device, just flash an RUU to the device.
you should find the correct one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622
I expect only a T-mobile one will run. I am not certain if this will remove your sim unlock.

Thanks, I'll give that thread a go, and I hadn't thought about the simlock issue. I did an over the air update on my girlfriends desire that I unlocked from O2, and didn't have a simlock issue, or is this totally different to an RUU flash?
Sorry it went in the wrong section. I spend most of my time on the Leo forum where there's no Q&A Section.
Thanks again
Does anyone know for sure if this will re-lock the phone?
If it does, can the phone be unlocked using the same code as used last time?
I seem to recall reading that flashing a rom doesnt affect the sim lock. Dont know about an RUU though
