That is generally true, but there are various loopholes to that. For one, you need to be a current account holder at T-Mobile for them to give you the SIM unlock code. If this is not true for the OP, they don't need to supply it. If they are still a T-Mobile customer, it should be as easy as calling and asking for it. If they ask why, just tell them you are traveling abroad and want to use a foreign SIM. However, I also found the following tidbit on the Vision Wiki:

NOTE: T-Mobile does offer an unlock code to its loyal customers who are traveling overseas. You can call them and request it. However, as the XDA-forums can attest, some people have had difficulty with their codes, causing the phone to be unable to establish a connection to ANY network.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#One_at_a_time._What_is_Subsidy_Unlock_and_why_do_I_want_it.3F

The other free option is just root the phone and unlock the SIM yourself. See the following guide. Subsidy unlock is what you want, but you need to root first.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD

As far as the paid unlock option, there are numerous vendors of unlock codes on eBay that charge around $10-20. I haven't used one personally, but others on XDA have used them, and they work. Pick one that has a good seller rating.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
I always call T-Mobile Customer Service and tell them am traveling overseas and they always give me that unlock codes.

The gfree/rage rooting method automatically SIM-Unlocks the G2/DZ. No need to pay for some code or beg the carrier. If a novice like me can do it, anyone can!

Hi all,

Attached are the radio.img and Ril files from the leaked Sensation Rom.

Please know what you are doing before you try to flash these files to your device as I have not tested them at all.

Note: The RIL is just a zipped file and not updated by ROM Manager.

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] leppie:
Flashing a radio from another device is stupid... and will likely break/brick your phone...
[Desire HD Android Development] Leechoonhwee:
Yes....Strictly for developers only....
[Desire HD Android Development] nobnut:
This is going to end in tears. Someone is going to flash that.

You better make your OP a little bit more clear.

Something like 'DO NOT FLASH ON A DHD!'
[Desire HD Android Development] MacCarron:
+1 OP you should write in ginormous red letters not to flash any of this ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] TeroZ:
Yeah.

It will be a real tragedy if someone "accidentally" flashed this into a DHD.

Surely we don't want to see any casualty here ;P

EDIT: Come on OP! Add some warning messages before any device got blown. This is an atomic bomb in disguise.
[Desire HD Android Development] miahahaha:
Ya, by putting the title like that..surely people will think that it's flashable on DHD..later someone bricked their phone, that would be a problem..
[Desire HD Android Development] tolis626:
OH MY GOD!I JUST FLASHED THE NEW RADIO ON MY PHONE AND NOW IT WON'T TURN ON! :eek:

As you understood that's just a joke(and apparently a terrible one,yeah? :p ),just to show that I agree with the others.You don't want that kind of feedback,do ya? ;)

[HTC Inspire 4G] Fuzzy John:
This is driving me CRAZY...

I have a new Inspire phone for about 3 days now and I am coming from Windows Mobile (Tilt 2).

With the initial setup I was able to select a certain sound for email notification. This is NOT for GMail notification. It is for the email client in the ROM (stock).

Now I want to change that notification sound and I cannot find where to select a different sound. So I sheepishly put my pride aside and ask: where do I change the email notification sound?

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] mynameisNike:
Mail/menu/more/settings/notification settings.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Fuzzy John:
That was the first place I went to. Not there though.

What I have at Mail/menu/more/settings/notification settings is:

Email notifications (checkbox)

Notification sound (checkbox)

Notification vibrate (checkbox)

Nothing where I can change the actual notification sound.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
Hit the personalize button, then click notification sound, and you'll be able to change the email sound.

That did it. SPB Shell 3D did away with Personalize. Couldn't get to Personalize even from inside Settings. It just returned me to Home.

I very much doubt it with the Asus stock ROM but I would hazard a guess and say that this may be possible with custom ROMs. It wouldn't make sense for Asus to support this as they will be selling a 3G version so it would be detrimental to their sales strategy.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcostea:
I tested some "No name" android 2.1 / 2.2 tablets with stock kernel and the 3G dongle was recognized and more, GSM signal was displayed.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rothnic:
I'd imagine that Asus wouldn't care but any carrier they have a deal with to push the tablet might have issue with it.

It is hit or miss with tablets from what I'm aware of. I don't think it worked with the gtablet out of the box.

I can't imagine drivers and software for Honeycomb to support those USB 3g dongles...

I can imagine getting a Mifi or similar mobile wifi hotspot though and using it with the TF and other devices.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dexter_nlb:
its very easy to figure out, if you're a developer, and you check the /proc/config.gz you know if its compiled with support for 3G dongle and which (huawai works 99% and a few others and some which not even yet has linux drivers ready)

so that will confirm, that xoom probably have no stock kernel support, and same goes for asus pad here...

On Folio100 we had to re-compile the kernel and re-write special pppoe drivers to make it work..(DerArtem made all this)

your reference tablet from china was a special edition, that they made drivers fror and a kernel with support for it.. and its was indeed 2.1...

most other chinatab's did not have 3g simslot or support..(stock does

not

mean android stock, but company default chosen kernel which can be with alot of functionality, or none at all, stripped to do what is needed and nothing more)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HHawk:
Hi guys,

I just bought a Motorola Atrix 4G from Ebay. However I was wondering, what ROM should I use, since I live in the Netherlands?

I already noticed a few roms here, however, since I live in the Netherlands, I want to know which one I should use for the best performance within my country.

Can someone please advice me?

Thank you very much.

//update

Sorry I forgot to mention it's the cell phone from AT&T carrier. I already know where to unluck it, thanks to this forum!

I am really sorry if this is a dumb question, but I couldn't find anything on it on the forums for Dutch people. :S
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaydar:
You're welcome.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelszs:
I apologize for Shaydar. That is an incredibly rude comment to make for absolutely no reason.

Make sure the ROMs are compatible with your network. I know that Canadian users were warned to avoid using certain ROMs at first.

However, I no longer own an Atrix, so you might need to some more research on the subject.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HHawk:
No problem, luckily there are some more decent folk around here. Oh well, I guess on every forum their are a few a..........

I never heard of a provider blocking a ROMs overhere in the Netherlands. But then again we are allowed a lot of stuff overhere, legalised soft drugs, red light district and so on. So I doubt it will going to block a custom ROM, but of course you never know. ;)

So the ROMs, depending they aren't blocked, do work without problems with other countries, right? As a matter of fact, it doesn't matter what or who's ROM it is, the ROM itself doesn't provide the connection (phone/data/gps). Right?

Sorry if I misunderstood. Oh well; even if someone said it wouldn't work, it doesn't matter that much anymore, since the phone will arrive here within 2 days.

By the way, you returned the Atrix 4G? Didn't you like the phone or was there another reason?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ijwhelan:
I believe Canadian Atrix users have to use certain ROMs due to hardware compatibility. I'm no expert in Canadian Atrii but they've been waiting until very recently for an SPL that's compatible with their phones so I assume it's either compatibility between the ROM and the phone hardware (bootloader maybe?) or between the ROM and the network.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaydar:
Sorry if I sounded rude.

All roms are just original firmware with skin and some mods.

Guess the guy sold his cell cause the bootloader was locked and some things like the real 4G, 1080p recording, and gingerbread are not yet available for the phone.

I am from france and all the roms avaible on this forum worked fine.

Got a preference for GreyBlur.

Enjoy your Atrix when you got it.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HHawk:
Simple question; is there a way to disable those annoying messages about updates?

I rooted and installed gladiatrix and it has been working perfectly since then. However I am not getting messages about installing an update (4.1.83.en.US).

I select "Install later" every time, however after 3 hours it's back and it's getting annoying. Or is the update safe to use on a rooted gladiatrix phone? If not, how can I disable these messages completely?
[Fascinate General] ChadZ:
I successfully paired my phone with W7 64bit pc but it shows an exclamation mark and tells me driver not found. I ran troubleshoot in windows. I click 'apply fix' but that didn't fix the problem.

Currently I have:

Firmware 2.2.1

Baseband: S:i500.04 V.EB01

Kernel: 2.6.32.9

Build: SCH-I500.EB01
[Fascinate General] bmeek:
You should probably download & reinstall your pc's bluetooth driver set.

I haven't checked since installing the froyo ec01 modem & rom, but last time I paired my fascinate to my pc I failed to find any service profiles on the phone worth using. There was an audio profile that let me play phone media via the pc's speakers, but I don't need that...

What are you hoping to accomplish?
[Fascinate General] prehistorical:
+1 you might want to check your (presumably new) PC's BT drivers.... type & version. Even with my newish HP with an integrated wirelss & BT card using Motorola drivers (3.0+), I was able to pair with SC 2.9.2 under both EB01 and EC01 radios... but like bmeek the only one profile that sems to work all the time is the audio profile and not much else. I ended up having to disable the built-in BT and purchase a cheap 2.0 BT dongle, install old BT drivers (Toshiba didn't work for me, but Broadcomm did). Long story short, solution depends on what you want to do (which profile) but the hiccup is likely on the PC side than the phone. Hope this helps!

I was just finished installing a webtop hack for the Bell Atrix and apparently I didn't "unthaw" everything Moto related I needed to before "freezing" LauncherPro to resort back to the stock launcher..and now I've got no homescreen or nothing..

The phone boots up fine and everything..and I can get to my unlock code screen (and do an emergency call etc), but as soon as I unlock my phone it starts glitching out.

What can I do? Reboots do nothing..I do have access to the phone via webtop mod now..but even the Mobile View there does nothing..

Sorry to say ,you cannot have all three.

Either WM + SD android boot(as you say ,slow),or Android on NAND (fast).

If you choose to go the way of the NAND...I suggest lots of reading,starting with the guide in my sig number 2.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Zulmacher:
If you put Android on your NAND, yes, you would lose WM.

You can keep your WM and boot into Ubuntu/Android via Haret.

There are some apps/tools that helps you automate the dual-booting.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbenz:
Like the two other posters before me said, if you want Windows Mobile, then you will need to keep your SD build. Once you go NAND, you will lose Windows Mobile. My experiences as well with SD builds is that they are much slower to load than NAND. Anywhere from an additional 1.5-3 minutes longer than NAND. The fastest loading NAND builds are the Gingerbread ones. They load for me in under 30 seconds. Non-Gingerbread NAND builds seems to load from 1.5-2 minutes. Search the forum for the dual boot up options to speed loading a bit quicker while helping to reduce battery drain. I am currently using a NAND build but when I was using an SD build, I made sure to have my dual boot up setting at 3 seconds to ensure a better battery life while quickening the boot up time.

Hi everyone,

Since last october, i have flashed numerous roms, too many to list, actually, flashed a least 20 different roms. Although, many have been impressive on looks and gizmos, none have been 100% reliable.

The most common and annoying problems recently have been losing calls due to the wonk issue, ...and yes, i do have the most recent dewonk app installedand running.

On CM6, that was not a problem, but battery life was discusting.

Another issue that i have never been able to correct, is the touchscreen problems, no rom has ever been reliable regarding that issue.

Is it that my phone is deffective ?

So the top 3 things i am looking for is

No wonkiness

no touch screen issues

and good battery life

So, if any of you guys out there know of a rom/kernell/radio combination that can offer that, i would praise you like android gods!!!
