just a question once unlocked hd2 with stock rom.

ok so i have an htc hd 2, i decided that i wanted andriod and went with nand blue topia non hd, so i followed all the steps everything is working perfectly.
my question is back when i was running windows 6.5 when i first got my phone i called and got the unlock code because sometimes you never now and figured it would be nice to have. so with stock tmobile rom my phone was unlocked and i could use a att sim card to freak people out.
now that i have placed nand andriod i attempted the same trick to use a att sim card to help someone out to use my phone and it didnt like it. im curious with using nand did that completly remove everything including my unlock code to my phone if so how would i go about doing that again.
sorry for the long post figured id try and be as detailed as possible

HD2 TMOUS unlock by NAND flashing ?

Hello,
If I'll NAND my locked HD2 TMOUS for android, will it be unlock automatically ?

no, it wont. and to save you asking in some weeks/months, no, flashing wont relock it once its unlocked either.

Are you talking about SIM unlock, or CID (ROM) unlock? You have to flash HSPL to be able to flash Android to the NAND. Either way, this process will CID unlock your device, but not SIM unlock it.

Can you get signal using Android and WM6.5? I think you should sim unlock your phone in stock WM6.5 ROM.

SIM network unlock PIN for htc hd2 with android 2.3.4 T-Mobile

hello. I bought unlocked HTC HD2 T-mobile.
But I put android 2.3.4 typhoon_cm7_v3.4.0-MAGLDR.zip and now when i put my non t-mobile sim card it asks me for SIM network unlock PIN, can you help me

you need to flash back to winmo in order to enter the sim unlock code. You CAN enter it into android, but it wont work, only winmo has the ability to write the required data to sim unlock it.

can I flash it back to winmo, and save my current android? and how do o find the code?
thanks for the help so far

you need to buy a code, or get one from a current t mobile customer. If it was sold unlocked, and now asks for a code, you were miss-sold it, because once its unlocked its always unlocked, , it can never get relocked.
yes you can backup your android rom thru CWM, then flash winmo, insert teh code, reflash magldr, cwm and restore your backup.

I have nand android, can I boot the winmo, or when I put the android it deleted the winmo?

hmmm
i didnt know all this could we put a moded version of min mo 6.5 and do a 1 timeboot for unlocking of an sd card?

This sounds like a really complicated thing to do..
Can I just put winmo ot my sdcard and run it?
I read that you can use winmo and android the same time if you have nand winmo and android on sd, but can this be done the other way arround?
Right now I am reading throughout the forum to see if this can be done and how, but if anyone knows the answer I will be very happy if you tell me.
Thanks for the help

No, winmo on nand only. Yes you deleted winmo when you flashed nand android. You will need to flash winmo from scratch.
@jackrabbit,, unlock SD card? We're talking about sim card unlock.
(Wait, did you mean "for unlocking OFF and SD card"? In which case i doubt it, winmo will only work from nand. Not SD.
The whole process should only take 25 minutes..
Magldr - cwm - backup and restore - backup - reboot to bootloader - flash a winmo rom - unlock sim card - enter bootloader - re apply 2.08.hspl android compatible radio, magldr and cwm - magldr - cwm - backup restore - full restore.

Ok, thank you.
For now I contacted with my seller that the phone isn`t unlocked and requested an unlock code. By the time he answers me and gives me the code I`ll stay with android, just because I still have some hope that the code will work on android.
If not, I`ll put the winmo and then android.
Do you know the easiest way to put winmo? I`ll need it only to put the code and then flash to android?
Thank you much for the help.

Well, it would take 25 mins to you.
I`m reading like for half an hour just to find out how to put winmo
And didn`t find anything
like for example I don`t know what Magldr and cwm
Oh, well.. there will be lots of reading
EDIT:
Okay... I couldn`t wait and flashed to winmo 7 - using this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nac3Fnf-lY4
and using radio Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14**:
i`m still waiting for my seller to respond

well, my seller gave me a code.. and when I enter it it says that it is accepted, but still when I try to make a call it asks me for the code and doesn`t give me to call.
Do you think that this has anything to do with the fact that the phone is using winmo 7, insted of the 6.5 version?

Exactly. Only winmo 6.5 has the ability to correctly accept that code.
Wont work in wp7 or android, because (drumroll....) its not an android or wp7 phone!
EDIT - oh its you that just bricked a tmous, guess you can stop worrying about how to unlock it. Sorry for your loss.

I did once input unlock code on android... It didn't work at start (phone couldn't get signal) but after I reflashed it with WinMo and reflashed radio it worked again... Before reflashing try manualy to select network, I think that after that it worked...

network unlock
buying a code is the only wait to unlock HD2 i don't have unlock box either.

I have problem, i have display with Ouy have tried 5 times, please wait until timeout -Sim Lock and how long i must stay or how bypass this

Is the unlock code the same for every hd2 or is it individual to the phone?
If it is generic, please could someone PM me the code.
Would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Timeout is not too long just put it to one side & review every 20 minutes until option is available
Codes are not generic so you will need get one for your device via its IMEI number
You can find codes via eBay at some success, I use http://www.pdamagician.com/unlocking.html with success & fast service on HTC & Samsung ...
You may also have a local shop that can do it via software & cable at sensible cost but take care as with everything buying cheap can lead to bad experience ...

not 100% sure its as simple as that. There's a lot of sites suggesting that after 5 incorrect attempts it needs to be unlocked using a cable rather than the code, (some places suggest it becomes permanently hard locked after 5 attempts, but maybe that's older information, id be more incliuned to believe the 'requires a cable')
Ive also seen some sites that suggest that after 5 attempts there is a much longer timeout, in the hours rather than minutes, and after THAT continuing to enter it incorrectly leads to a hard lock.

Never gone as far as 5 wrong codes but did read & post in a thread on xda with a guy on 5th attempt & waiting for time out, he did succeed but was a few hours before code would accept, will try & find thread later & link to it.
Personally if I have trouble after 3 attempts I get it done via cable as almost as cheap as codes here.

Thanks guys.
Reflashed stock rom because only windows mobile 6.5 can unlock the hd2, bought an unlock code from ebay for £1.11, entered it into winmo and have now reinstalled my android nand rom. works perfect

[Q] SIM Locked in WP7.8, but Goldcard done

Hello everybody,
I'm facing a problem with my HTC HD2 :
The TouchScreen wasn't responding, so I removed all and decided to go back to stock rom (FRA) (WP6.5)
So I did the Goldcard trick, and successfully installed the FRA stock Rom (RUU_Leo_S_HTC_FRA_3.14.406.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship).
So here, my phone must be unbranded right ?
After, I decided to install this rom (WP7.8) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833)
So I changed SPL 3.03.0000 to HSPL 2.08.0000, and installed MAGLDR1.13.
So I run the RUU and it works, I launched the WP7.8 Rom, but i get stuck on the PIN screen, just after I type my code : "This SIM card can only be used on specific networks"
Did I missed something to unbrand my phone ?
Thanks for help

you must SIM unlock phone... goldcard method only debrand
you must purchase SIM unlock code with phone IMEI...
also you must flash stock Wm 6.5 EU ROM to SIm unlock phone... after that you flash magldr and WP7.8
