Touch 3G Unlock by code service

Hi I can currently offer sim unlocking for Touch 3G by code for £12.99
Simply supply me with details of country & network the device is locked to & the IMEI number
*be 100% sure to supply the correct IMEI*
Far simpler & safer than using patched radios to flash unlock & basically the same price.
Code unlocking also should not infringe your device warranty.
For more details PM me.

sigh !!!!!!!!!
This forum is not what it ised to be
Previously everything was shared...now it has become a merchant's platform!

This site is still a superb tool for all HTC users.
Many softwares are developed & are free.
All advice & support are free
Many useful products & services can be sourced cheaper.
Not everything in life can be sourced for free.
I am soon hoping to have unlock codes available for HTC Diamond 2, Touch Pro 2.
The service won't be free but will be safe & almost half the cost of most network charges.

shame shame shame

IMEI
Careful, not to give out any IMEI here.
There are alot of IMEI thieves to make clones out there.

Everything is free in this forum except SIM Unlocking. These guys worked really hard to break it. What the fuss in expecting something in return.
Tell me something, how many have clicked the donate button???

i agree with that, they work'd hard to break the code.. and they should receive something for that

as for reselling unlock codes for "basically" the same price (which isn't the same price at all), it's not real work and not as exciting/challenging as working it out yourself how to remove sim lock, and additionally do security unlock too.

SIM unlock from Orange RO

hi.
After some weeks of struggle i finally unlocked my HD2 from Orange Romania.
I still don't know if the online sites that sell unlock code and provided wrong code used a generator or got it from some htc database but in both cases something is different from other HD2.
Conclusion:
Some sites and some unlockers suggested/said that Orange Romania may had changed the code so normal HTC codes don't work.
If you have a HD2 locked to Orange RO your best bet is a phone shop who provide unlocking services.
Journey this far:
- i think that code can be entered 5 times, each time increase wait time. i still need more info on it so if you can help don't be shy.
- ebay code for £6.9 - wasted attempt, try 1st time as is cheap but make sure you video it. you may get garbage code instead of refund.
- htccode.com - PM 3 times ferraripassion and got a wild goose link to htc desire forum , left a support question - no answer. they may be out of business.
- unlock-now.com for €25 - no code got refund in couple of hours, worth a try.
- unlockallcellular.com - $34.95(~€27) i think they are USA based so i had to wait because time difference. got same wrong code again. good live support tho i expected more details on why it does not work after long talk and mails i sent. also their page on t8585 suggests that a rom update will wipe attempts count. it does not.
- local unlock shop - ~€20 finally unlocked - used a box to get right code, code completely different from one provided by online.

hi.
please don't tell me that was discussed before, i know i read a lot on the topic but to no help.
i got a great 2nd hand hd2 that is 1mo old not to be under contract with orange and i expected to be as easy task to unlock it as was with tg01. i was so wrong.
i bought unlock code from ebay seller cellunlockland but didn't work, he was fair and redounded my money but also told me that i probably only have 10 tries. i wasted 2 on his code
another member here said that too new and my IMEI is in a new database and i have to pay ~50USD for it witch i think is a too much.
i hope someone can help and provide a good code seller that will work guarantee and with decent pricing (in tg01 is vitamise witch for £11 never failed).
i also hope that someone can tell me how many code input tries i have and what happens after that. i read couple of days that someone got in trouble for trying to many times but can't find more info on it.
thanks

unlock-now.com
Ive mentioned then in at least 3 threads.
But you would have known that if you had used the search!

this post implies that there is a 5 try limit to unlock with code. can anyone confirm or infirm that ?
@unlock-now.com i said not to say it was discussed before. if you would have read you would see that not everyone has had success with unlock-now.com
also other said they unlocked with code bought on ebay and look what it got me 2/5 wasted attempts. also their response time seams high an refund time even longer (correct me if i am wrong). also €25 is not exactly cheap compared to £7 witch it costs on eBay.
i would prefer someone active here on forums whom i could PM and tell just old code that did not work. if i have 5 tries now way in hell i am entering that code again just to get it on tape.
if the device is new and manufactured after certain date and in a new database or something then maybe other peoples who have phone from same batch or newer have same problem as me while.we may not find a answer on a thread started on dec 2009.
also i was hopping that someone could tell me if i have to wait for some time. i read that operators only give codes after 3 months into contract or something like that.
what is wrong with having options ? after all is not that why we are here on xda ?

I got mine unlocked on eBay for £6.99 can give you the details if you like

Well my friend you read the posts, digest the information and make your own mind up. Its a free choice so go where your intellect and assessments take you.
Its the way we all learned "the true path" so good luck with your quest.
It worked for me!!!

Surely spending 25 euro (which is then refunded if no code is found), is better than wasting those attempts by 'saving' and going with an eBay option which doesn't work?
Thats like saying you'd rather have a car with no fuel tank than one with, as it'll save you a few quid.

the ebayer seamed honest and refunded me, i think he honestly believed he had a right code.
i was the stupid one because i tried twice because i read on forums that one got it right 2nd try. i thought i was to excited and miss typed it 1st time. with tg01 worked like magic couple of weeks ago and also tg01 doesn't have a try counter. i didn't worried for a moment with hd2 till after.
€25 is not that much but i got a feeling that i will get again a your phone is in new database you need to pay double.
also if i get 44875764 again i would have payed for nothing as will not input that again.
i am in no rush and can wait couple of months for phone to be in regular database, also i am ready to pay €15-25.
is nice to feel free but not when you pay for it a arm and a leg. or to be more explicit i don't need it unlocked but i would like to know it is unlocked.

gave unlock-now.com a try. got a "Code not found" response and a refund in couple of hours.
any other recommendations?

Daaam...
And for me its really vital to unlock it..since I'm moving in couple of weeks..and my phone is still on french orange..and now u got me worry..
Some suggested this http://debloquer.planetemobile.com/debloquer.php?marque=HTC
..its in french..and since u from Belgium..it wont cause a problem..

ahh..sorry..u're not from Belgium..

here, could you give me the details for the unlock for hd2 on ebay? I'm locked to vodafone, ireland, want to go on O2

just search htc hd2 unlock code on ebay.co.uk
if you get a wrong code as i did don't try anymore, you have only 5 attempts.
make sure you record on video the whole operation and imei on back of the phone if it fails.
don't try more then once with ebay codes, i wasted 2 of 5 attempts.
i am still looking for a fair provider to unlock my phone. i think is better to get a "code not found" and a refund then waste 1 (2 if you stupid like me and retry code) attempt on a random code because seller thinks you may not have video it and he got to keep freaking £6.9

tried unlockallcellular.com
got same 44875764 again. 9 hours time difference caused me some frustration but in the end got a refund.
see 1st post for more details.
it seams that my pone is cursed and i am doomed to review every unlock service out there.
any suggestions ?

What country did the phone come from I bought my HD2 from t-mobile in the US and the called customer service and asked them for the unlock code told them I was going to Europe for work and they are emailing it to me haven't tried it yet because I just called yesterday to get it should have it tonight and will let you know if it works

finally unlocked it at a phone shop who provide unlock services.
orange ro seams to have changed htc unlock code.

SIM Unlock MyTouch (Use of foreign sim cards)

I logged in today and was surprised to see these three new threads about this already well known topic. So I'm going to try to put an end to this by merging all of the "Help me unlock my MyTouch" topics into this one thread and stickie it so that I can just move future posts directly to the trash. So be warned, any future posts regarding SIM unlocking WILL be removed!
The very first rule of the XDA-Developers forum is to search before posting.
So I figure that if this is stickied then there really isn't any excuse whatsoever.
While I'm doing all of this I want to clearify something for all of those that are interested in unlocking their MyTouch.
Currently (as of July 2010) there is no solution for unlocking your MyTouch without first acquiring the Subsidy key for your device.
There are no hardware hacks, software installations or anything like that.
You really only have four options.
Contact your carrier and request it. Most carriers have minimum requirements to be met before requesting. Check with your carrier for additional information.
Use of third party services (go ahead post your success in this thread).
Use of an overlay card. (I have not personally verified this method)
Purchase the device already unlocked.
If you have a successful result then post it in this thread and I'll update this post accordingly.
Please note that myself, other members or the XDA-Developers do not take responsiblity for failed efforts, damage to your device, money wasted or anything else that might make you upset.
Any new posts regarding anything already discussed in this topic will be subject to deletion without warning!

As stated above, I merged three three new topics and moved them to this thread.
I have tried several service and got a code that did not work. (another gave me another set and still didnt work). All had to go the the htc master database to get the code
The phone works on t-mobile but i want to use it in all countries.
And way to unlock the phone?

Hi All,
I had used the search and found out that all the questions regrading Tmobile HTC mytouch sim unlock were refferd to pay-sites.
Is this true? did non of the forum members das an answer?
and if so, What is the most reliable site for this ?
I got a TMobile htc Mytouch 3g and I can not use it.
(I noticed that other members had said that all TMobile's MyTouch are sim free, well mine is not).
Please help.

You could use something like a TurboSIM. It's a small film-like device that goes between the SIM card and the reader in your phone, forcing your phone to accept it. I don't know if all/any work on android/sapphire so you'd need to get a second opinion before ordering.
The only HTC Sapphires that come unlocked are the 'Google ION'/ADP2 devices, so yes you'll need to buy an unlock code. If you've been with tmo for more than 3 months phone them and say you're going out of the country, they should give you the code. If you're looking for a reputable company for unlock codes, go on eBay, that way you know the testimonials and feedback is real.

I've used SIM unlock services from ebay. Cost about $10 and was fairly painless. Had to try a few different sellers since the others couldn't find the code. HTC master key had to be used in order to get the code for mine, that's why they charged $10 instead of the usual $2-3.
Even at $10, I found it to be a lot cheaper and effective than other website prices.

just the thread i was looking for!
does 3g work if its unlocked? im thinking of giving the phone to my gf because i dont think its worth it to sell.
also, i just canceled my tmo service and its expiring at the end of this month. had tmo for almost a year. do you think theyll give me the subsidy key? and last question, is the subsidy key the imei or is that the real unlock code for it?
thanks

3G will probably not work for another carrier if that's what you're asking.
If you are no longer a T-Mo subscriber then they will probably not give you the key.
You submit the imei to the unlock service (carrier or whoever) and they use that to look up your devices specific unlock key. Takes anywhere from a few minutes to a few days to get it though.

thanks for the info. sucks that i cant get the code from tmo. i should of gotten it before i told them to cancel my service. ill probably just use this phone for backup or something. i dont feel like i want to part with my first android device lol

root / upgrade locks me back?
I have an HTC Magic from Rogers Canada that I got unlocked as soon as I bought it. I need it unlocked since I am living over 5000 miles away from Canada. Everything is all well and nice now, working on the local carrier 3g and all.
I have been considering rooting the phone or maybe installing an unofficial ROM for a while now, but I never ended up doing it for fear my phone might get locked back to Rogers, rendering it useless for me.
What are the risks of this actually happening? Is the phone unlock a permanent operation, or are there any.types of upgrade or root that could bring the lock back?
Thanks!

Once you unlock the phone for other carriers it stays unlocked regardless of rom.

LOL
Anyway, There was a reason for my posting.
I ended up getting the unlock code from T-mobile and it is the exact number that I got from the unlocking service which did not work in the first place.
So I am wondering if the problem now lies in the fact that I rooted the phone and installed 3rd party rom before I unlocked the phone.

I can only agree. I don't see how that would be possible since the subsidy has nothing to do with the type of spl, radio version or rom.

the unlock code has nothing to be with rom... spl or radio only imei

Sounds like something that I had just said.

Success!!
Website: www.unlock2go.com
Cost: $20 USD
Delivery time: instant (even on a Saturday evening at 8:30pm)
Important note: I selected "T-Mobile" as the carrier, and then MyTouch 3G as the manufacturer, NOT HTC. Not sure if this matters, but thought I'd pass along that info.
Good luck!
Edit: So far we have 2 confirmed success cases. Anyone else that uses it please post up - would be nice to confirm reliability for everyone.

Hey Thanks for the site I used them and received the code less than thirty mins

I can also confirm unlock2go.com works! for Mytouch 3g
Sent them my payment 19-08-2010 at 11:40 pm EST and got the code by 11:50 pm !!!! all I can say is wow, it now recognizes my SIM in Colombia.
Tip: I used promo code unlock30 and got $2 off (paid $18).
Help! now that the phone is unlocked I'm stuck because I've got no data plan, and I can't find the way to go to Wifi, or even make a regular call. All the guides I find assume the phone is already working, but my menu, or home keys don't do nothing I get back to the green robot screen.
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

HTC Leo - Subsidy Code *Cheap Reliable?*

The phone is locked to T-Mobile and obviously i need a subsidy pin. I requested one from T-Mobile it came within 12 hours. BUT this was for the first phone i had from them's IMEI. Obviously this one won't work for the phone. I have since requested another for the updated IMEI. And after 3 days its still stuck in there admin department.
What im asking is.
Shall i wait until the code is redeemed from T-Mobile as its the safest option. The buyer hasn't paid yet and has already waited long enough to get it.
Or are there any RELIABLE unlock sources that sell the Subsidy pins that will be a guaranteed fix and will be unlocked forever? Or are there any other ways to unlock the phone for any network?
-This should be allowed as it's not to do with warez. Apologies if its not-

Will the service be affected eby the fact T-Mobile are 'enquiring' about an unlock code to HTC? I have read the T-Mobile UK handsets have a trouble with Unlock codes from sites. Read this while doing a search on the forums.

I would say no problem as unlocked a Desire HD on T-Mobile UK end of last year no problem.
They have access to all main provider databases & manufacturer databases too as my code was supplied from HTC ...

An alternative - Can get them off ebay pretty cheap <$5 - I've used them and worked fine and pretty fast

Used eBay before & had problems, 2 codes did not work & getting refund was a pain & codes that did work did not unlock to all networks.
eBay is full of big promises & small on quality goods/services ...

Really, Was there any need for this? And after all the Googling i did, Ebay seemed to come up the rear end concerning codes.
The site he gave, was Prompt and had the code within 5 hours. Even on a sunday. When its taken t mobile around 4 days or so. I think you should take yourself away from this thread. Thanks for the posts and Mods please lock this as its solved.

Connection: Happy Customer
eBay: used eBay as price & feedback looked good, we need to unlock about 8>10 handsets monthly so savings via eBay looked good. Reality was different with some wrong codes supplied or emailing us to pay more as codes in newer data base ect ect & unlocked devices not working on all networks.
Up to you who you use at the end of the day, but some will find such reviews from long term members useful ...

I have now used UnlockFusion a few times for myself and my friends - we have found them reliable and cheap (the latest was under US$3) and quick - usually within an hour or two depending on the time of day (one recently was just a few minutes).
I have absolutely no affiliation with them and live in Australia, but it pays to let others know of a great service.
But as always, check the feedback just in case things go bad and their services declines

HD2 sim unlock ( PB81120 t8585 t9193 )

I'm making this thread simply because I searched and searched and there was nothing for free like in the days of the htc kaiser/raphael, hadn't used my hd2 for a long time and decided to give it to my dad, since he's too cheap to get a good phone lol, and I have 2 hd2s decided to hook him up.
Now after searching here for it, people mostly sent you to htcunlock and some similar others which are still charging $20 US dolars to unlock a 3 year old phone, well I found a listing on ebay and even though a bit skeptical I decided to give it a try since it was only $3.72 with shipping charge, got my unlock code within a few hrs, flashed winmo 6.5(talk about a blast from the past) and put the code in and done, tested it on AT&T and working fine. I just sent the info for my 2nd hd2 so I can unlock that one also. :good:
Here's the link for the people that still use it or the new comers that bought it second hand looking to unlock.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151003769254?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
it was brought to my attention that this won't work with Orange, but like anything else here at XDA , try at your own risk, if it doesn't work you're only out a few bucks .

Nice advertising.
Otherwise, word of advice, BEWARE of HD2's from certain mobile operators(f.e. Orange) as unlock codes WILL NOT WORK. The only option for unlocking those devices are original Orange codes(which cost a lot) or XTClip/cracking boxes

be safe and get and original unlock code from Orange. or buy a prepaid phone since your father is so cheap. where im from you can get one for 18 dollar with 18 dollar credit

I'm sorry for my misunderstanding but I thought all hd2 unlocked the same, I have US T-Mobile hd2s, for both already unlocked for $7.44 with this service, I figured that the models listed in the ad could be unlocked the same way. I'll edit the title when I get home.

Had quite a bit of trouble with cheaper unlocking not working on many providers. Pay a little more for decent source of original codes or HTC database codes or get it unlocked via a local decent mobile shop as not too expensive these days.

Yeah I hear you but since I no longer use the phones, I found a good cheap source which worked fine, I paid $7.44 US and got both my hd2s Sim unlocked. I don't think you can get any better than that. I posted this to show people a cheap alternative to paying lots more, if anyone uses this and it doesn't work, they're out what cost to get a bag of chips and a soda!
RoloRacer on RootBox Nexus 10

Supersize that order & you get hassle free full unlock.
Can be lucky with cheap codes but I had too many failures with eBay codes ...
