Free Sim Unlock for Artemis, Again

Hello,
According to the Wiki the same application for Hermes can unlock the Artemis, but I have tried it several times and it does not work.
With one of them I got a "SIM Lock Code", but I entered it when I inserted another SIM and it said it was not valid. I tried again and wrong again. Since then every time it says that I have already tried twice to enter the Network code.
Is there a way to sim-unlock without paying the 28eur?
Is the structure of Artemis so much different than the other HTC?
Anyone accepting the challenge to adapt Pof's applications?
Ànims Pof!

no, there have been some changes here on the board,
thats what i make up from what i read on this board.
they just want to make some money, the code is a bit different.
i am waiting for a free unlocker also. not going to pay for it.
if it wont be released with 2 months, i can unlock it for free at my provider...

Anything new here?

Has one of you found a free solution?

And it doesn't get locked after flashing a new rom!

Haha. Please try another joke, You´ve already used that!
NOW, in serious.
As a new guy in PPC development I would like to help / try to develop a unlock

I have some experience in programming for PC.
Could anyone recommend a starting point? An example?

Can you help me to find information on creating an unlock tool?

MDA Compact III Sim unlock
Hi guys,
I recently purchased the imei-chech unlocker which worked great but cost me £20 . A few months later the phone developed a power problem, so I got it replaced under warranty. Which meant my new phone needed unlocking. DOH!
My question is if I post the unl. file with my old IMEI number in it can any programmers out there modify the file to accept a different imei. I have the software to unlock the MDA it just requires a unl. file with the correct IMEI.
Leave it with you
please keep me posted
Cheers

Hey!!! A new guy... this is one of your freshest posts and I need to consider doing what you're telling me to do?
Dude, look at Olipro? Or look at this forum with the "donations" for the unlocks from tupisdin... DONATION!?
You're still new here and you still don't know that nothing makes sense here...
Try to be more careful about what you say next time, freshman!

*#1234# not working

Hi, i keep seeing that I have to press *#1234# to see some details like CSC on my phone, but it doesn't work for my Vibrant. Anyone else having this? It just stays there and waits for me to press something, like it is a regular phone number

not the brightest of the bunch huh.
the code is *#*#1234#*#*.

Haha. Classic.

You don't have to be a **** about it. Peoples attitudes here suck here recently.

engineer14, I only use android for 2 days. Also every time I saw it it was just plain *#1234# and not with the extra symbols as you said. I thought it was like that since showing IMEI, is similar code with only *#06#. But I guess you're too damn smart to think all this.....
Thanks Broken

Why do you have to insult him like that? He asked for a little help and you go and reply with that, I mean really was that necessary? Do you feel better about yourself being such a jerk? Whatever, you use more energy to post an insult like that instead of just pointing someone out in the right direction.

Why don't you all relax a little? They do have a point about your unnecessary remark but let's chill out....can we all just get along?
Cheers,
M_T_M

well, i never saw this code before, i looked at other codes and applied common sense to get it.
*#*#44336#*#*
*#*#4636#*#*
*#*#2222#*#*
*#*#197328640#*#*
...
list goes on, i wonder if there is a trend there, or if taking 2 seconds to google 'samsung vibrant dialer codes' is a smart move.
BTW i just got all those codes from google.
unless you've only used google for 2 days too!

Well next time don't think it is ok to insult someone just to make a point. From what you just explained then fine, ignore the post and let the OP Google it himself.

The EXACT reason why I've learned how to flash ROM's, ODIN, use CWM, switch modems, change kernels and customize my phone in ways I never thought possible...... Without ever really asking any questions.
To the OP: When you are in need of an answer to a question, a great place to start is the Vibrant Bible. You can probably find just about everything you ever wanted to know... it's located in the development section (can't post the link) and don't let these kind of people get you down or discourage you from asking questions so you get to learn about and enjoy your phone to the fullest. From my experience here on XDA the majority of members will gladly help someone in need. All in all, it is a great "community"

My comment
People need to remember that comments spoken is jest usually do not translate into funny comments written.
XDA is great forum with alot of great info......
cheers

need imei to give me activation code

hello ive tried 5 times on the uk to activate htc hd2
they ask name
device htchd7 of course
but then at the end they say we need your imei number so
we can give you a code what should i do any ideas
i live in the uk thanks

Just give them your IMEI number.

Dont give them your IMIE. When they check it, and it turns out to be your HD2. They will then get your mobile blocked.
BE WARNED...

NO-ONE has had a phone blocked. You're just spreading a rumour that someone (probably you) made up.

Go try and get a code and see... Watch this space...

Add +1 to your imei. give them the imei of an old phone.
//EDIT
As someone reported he providet his real imei and they told him its not valid... maby thats a problem from now on.

Cheers mate. I'm quite happy cos that's totally the opposite of what numpty was saying earlier about blocking people's phones after taking their IMEI number. LOL
So fair enough, they obviously have a way of checking if an IMEI number is valid somehow. That'll obviously stop them giving out activation codes to people that don't have a valid phone.
I guess it's just luck of the draw then, cos they didn't even ask me for one.

Please remain OT. We're trying to help the OP here.

I gave my imei they can only block services to live they would need to get the carrier to block the phone but they can not do that as they have no idea who supplies my phone services

Ignore the IMEI scaremongers...
Hey all, I phoned up the UK support line yesterday, was patched through to the Windows Phone section (odd that you're put through to US support ) and the very nice woman on the other end asked for my full name, phone number, make and model, mobile operator, email address and my IMEI. I gave her everything. She then put me on hold for a few minutes, before confirming my details and reading my code out to me. All in all it took about 5 mins, including being on hold. My phone is still working, I haven't been blocked, or blacklisted, or lost my house, my car or my friends and relatives.
Ignore the misers and just give them your IMEI number.
P.S. - I told them I had the HD7 and gave them O2 as the mobile operator (as they are the only ones who stock it in the UK) - I then said I bought it through ebay and that I was using it on the Vodafone network. They could have checked all this using my IMEI number, so quite clearly they don't give a damn about it.

okay, again, I'll spell this out. (Here is where I mentioned this to you previously --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15042917&postcount=5 )
I don't post in here unless I've ALREADY searched, TRIED the applicable standard SGS2 actions, and failed, thus having to resort to posting a thread asking specifically about the SC02C phone.
So. The standard SGS2 unlocking tools do not work on the SC02C.
Has anyone unlocked their SC02C themselves, and if so, how did you do it?
Thanks!

NTT will unlock them, 3000 yen and change, no effect on monthly support according to comments here.
Its not a DIY unlock but its a lot cheaper (3 beers) that some things *cough*tethering*cough* that docomo rakes us over the coals for.

any luck on this? I know somebody had before and after shots of the locked and unlocked binaries. Probably not going to do much to reverse engineer 1 way hash, but it's something.

I believe I am this guinea pig... I had the first nv_data.bin 1 day before going to the NTT shop, and then I did the same thing after unlocking. I also asked the lady if she could give me the password just in case it locks itself up, and it is 18360815.
If any good soul out there (Odia? ChainFire? Somebody else?) can take a look at the hashes and update the SIM unlocking program, it would be amazing. Before unlocking I tried using the program from the market, but found neither the unlock or unfreeze code.
Good luck, guys!

has there been any progress or hope to unlock this phone for US carriers? I'm holding one in my hand that I'm only using as a game console.
What can I do with it after I root it? I would like to be able to retire the iphone and use this phone.

I tried to unlock at the docomo shop but they said I would need a japanese passport to unlock, and my new zealand passport is insufficient...
So anyone willing to help or know another way? I am leaving japan on tuesday evening so this is rather urgent, thank you.

Cellunlocker.net has a system to reset sim code deactivation, but from what I have seen it isn't working for people that lost ability to unlock because of the "free unlock" method. You could still contact them and ask about it. It does cost a little extra.

There are three things wrong with your inferior attempt at an insult:
1. WTF is there to read? This thread just started its second page, so telling me that I am not reading first is stupid on your part.
2. I have zero issues with this method. I cannot speak for anyone else who doesn't know what they are doing.
3. I am pretty sure you have never seen a cow fly, or a pig file taxes, or in your case how people like yourself end up when treating the wrong person with disrespect.
Try being considerate when posting. If it doesn't have anything to do with fixing the OP's issue, don't post ridiculous crap. If you were trying to hurt my feelings, you didn't.
I have had an active account with xda for a while now, but its people like you who are immature and rude that keep me from posting.

Well said good sir! I've used the free method for a few of my friends phones and on my s3 and now s4 with zero issues. With how many videos and guides there are on how to do this it SHOULD be idiotproof, you should only get issues when you don't pay attention.

sometime s4 does not accept code directly ...i had same problem and unlocked it from local shop using flashing device z3x
