HTC HD2: Retrieve the unlocking code - HD2 General

Hi,
I've bought an unlocked HTC HD2 T-Mobile and I'm planning to update the ROM.
And before proceeding I want to retrieve the unlocking code from the phone.
Is there any way?
Regards.

Sorry, you need to be more specific.
What unlocking code are talking about?

Are you worried about it being SIM locked after a ROM flash, is that why you need the code? Are you aware that flashing is independent of the ROM, thus it will not lock again?

Yes... this what I'm afraid of... T-Mobile USA has a new ROM update and I'm worried about SIM locked after the flash.
Thanks for helping.
(and sorry for the delay... some emergencies).
Regards.

i'm having trouble
I live in venezuela where the goverment decided almost 7 years ago that the use of international currency is restricted, so i have no way of using paypal or any other method to buy an unlock code. I had my hands on a smart-sim, (turbo-sim) that promises to use any sim card on any phone. It worked on almost all phones i've tried except the HTC touch viva, for some reason it doesn't recognises the sim card as a valid one and still asks for the subsidy code.
Is there any method to unlock the phone without paying for it though the internet? i mean, something like changing the imei, using a known unlock code for that emai and then changing the emei back to the original? any way? please?

once unlocked it will not relock itself.. no worries.. as far as unlocking solutions I mused mobile in canada but I think you should e-mail them with the IMEI and see if they have a unlock code for it. what carrier was it locked to? that would help narrow it down

Yes! i unlocked my X10 with them cuz I couldn't unlock it anywhere else. Trust me, I've tried all of the online remote unlocking services. HTCCode has the cable unlocking method, for $40, it's not cheap but it's really worthed. I recommended it to a lot of my buddies here in the forum and all of it worked. I've been using my X10 for about 3 months without any problem now hope this helps.

[Q] Does Flashed Rom Equal Unlock?

I Flashed a TMobile Hd2 to Markinux HD eXTRA cLEAN
Now does that make it unlocked to other carriers?
Or do I still need to do something else?
Thanks ahead of time!

No it does not unlock your phone. You will need to call Tmobile and ask for unlock code. Also you can go to ebay and get unlock code from there...
No. your phone is still locked to the carrier, you have to unlock the phone with a code number, either from the carrier or buy one from online company.

[Q] Unlocking a hd2 and then installing android. will this remove the sim unlock?

Hi I want to sim unlock my hd2, and then install Nandroid operating system onto it. Will this effect the sim unlock? , was talking to a man in a shop and he said it might. Its one I have for sale and someone wants this doing to it, Its locked to T mobile uk at the moment.
p.s did do a quick search but am at work so shouldnt be on her
Thanks
Short answer is NO.
If you want to sim unlock your device you need to contact your provider.
Go to a store where they can unlock it for you or buy a code on the internet.
Good Luck
thanks for the reply, but what i meant was if i have it unlocked, then install nandroid will this remove the sim unlock?
No, i can guarantee you it wont. I got mine unlocked and had no problem switching SIM cards in WP7, Android or WM 6.5 . Cheers.
quick question to anyone that can answer this....
can you sim unlock while android is installed..i called tmobile requested the code but dkno if i can unlock with android running
I'm not 100% guaranteed, but i think that even runing android you can unlock your phone
I'd assume that you would be able to once Android recognizes your IMEI so yeah it should work.

Hi, and if i will re-flash a WM ROM???
the unlock will be?
Let's say this once, for the benefit of anyone else who reads this thread:
SIM UNLOCKING YOUR HD2 IS UNAFFECTED BY ROM CHANGES.
Once you SIM unlock the device, regardless of operating system currently installed, it will stay SIM unlocked even through ROM changes, including WP7/Android/WM6.5/etc/etc.

Can't tell by your signature where you are located but if you are in America, you can contact T-Mobile online, give them the IMEI number to your phone, then they will send you in a couple of days, the instructions and unlock code for your phone.

Get unlock code from provider or buy one online.

Easy!
No need any unlock code! just hack your HSPL, and flash a new radio, your phone will automatically unlock!
Android is not native to HD2 so I'm sure it is ALREADY unlocked

You're both incorrect here, unlocking usually refers to a sim unlock, therefore flashing a new ROM will have no effect on unlocking the phone. As the people above you said, you have to buy an unlock code, input the new sim then enter the unlock code (or something along those lines, haven't done it before).
Also, why bother reopening an old, solved thread simply to post an answer to a question which has already been answered? If you're trying to get 10 posts, do it on the newer threads, not the ones from early 2011.
