the easiest way to check is to put a different sim card into it(like att) and it will ask you for sim unlock pin if it's locked, if it doesn't and get's mobile signal right away then it's unlocked.
I don't think installing CM7 ROM will unlock the phone. The best way is to call T-mobile to get the phone unlocked. It's free and super easy if you have an voice plan in good standing.

Yes, it will. I got code and unlocked the hd2 with WM and no problem since there. I can work with any SIM from any operator.

if you unlocked it when using windows then it should be permanent no matter what operating system you put on

Doesn't matter. Unlocking the phone is based on the IMEI number of the phone and not the build it is using. The IMEI number will not change no matter what build you load onto the phone.

Hello. I have bought a HTC HD2 in Spain locked to Vodafone.
I have already installed HSPL2 and installed the portuguese offical ROM (insted of the default spanish).
However, the phone wont accepted my portuguese SIM card. What do i have to do to unlock it?
Tks
i answered your other duplicate post in the HSPL thread.

no, rom lock and sim lock are not connected. You need to either get the code from vodaphone spain, or buy an unlock code online.

heh,. dont be sorry.
No, i dont, i havent unlocked mine. I'm with O2 who have a free unlock service, BUT their 28 day service has taken 4 months so far, still no unlock code, hehe. Good job i dont need it unlocked!
There are a fair number of threads on here about sites like htcunlock.com (or whatever its called) with lots of feedback.
Put 'unlock hs2' into google, , loads of results.
I unlocked a T-Mobile USA & European HD2 here
Got codes back in under 48hrs & even contacted me to correct IMEI as I done a typo, oops ... codes worked fine & are so simple to use.
Worth noting you will need to be on WM OS to unlock the HD2, fortunately all our work HD2s are on WM OS .
you can contact your service provider

Actually you don't need to be!
I had my Tmo HD2 on Android when I put my FarEasTone SIM in. It just asked me to enter the unlock code and I did, it worked just fine.

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.
I have flashed Tmobile HD2 with NexusHD2-Gingerbread but noticed that I can't still use AT&T Sim. Can someone help to explain how to get it to work?
Thanks.
hd2 can't use at&t 3g for one thing. next if you're talking about network connection and phone calls, that does seem strange. what radio version do you have? try looking through older threads about what radios are good for which carriers

Uhh. Just wondering are you trying to unlock your HD2 by flashing that rom? Then what you're doing won't unlock your phone. You have to get an unlock code.

Agree - to get it to work with AT&T sim card you will need the code for it. Once you put SIM Card in it will ask you to type in Unlocking Network Code or something like that - you enter it and that's it - it is unlocked...
FYI I did it under different ROM but it worked fine.

No matter you want it really bad, dont unlock your bootloader, unless you know what are you doing is right.
Go to development section anyway.

You just have to buy an unlock code, either through your operator or online. Ebay is your friend.

There is not way to find in some hidden files or in some text inside the Huawei? It has to be somewhere, I get unlocked my samsun galaxy mini on this way, so I only want to know in what folder and file find the code
There is a official rom that unclocks the phone but it is only for U8800 NON PRO
The only way to unlock U8800 pro is with a ulock code, I guess..
If you flash the official gingerbread it somehow unlocks it for the u8800-51

Yes, I got it, I installed b572 and it is unlocked, I made this since months, I can call and this and the phone is asking me the pin but is working, but when I upgrade to official ICS it is locked again and when I put my PIN it doesn´t connect, how can I fix that and to be all time unlocked?
It will only be unlocked while you are using b572. You can flash a custom rom over it and it is still going to be unclocked. But when you flash an update, when you change that b572 to another, it will lock again
