HTC - Code unlocking

OK, guys, have read all correspondence regarding unlocking the HD but am still not sure if I should use htccode as the comments vary between very good and terrible with no in between. I am also wary of a service that does not allow you to enter your IMEI code as part of the payment process but asks you to send separately. Seems like a shoestring operation.

Has anyone used any other service to unlock their HTC HD? Some websites ae offering this service for very little money so not sure if they are legit.

Would appreciate a choice here. Who is behind HTCCODE? Does anyone know?

:confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DavidMc0:
I'm not sure who's behind them, but I know they're legit.

TotalGSM are also associated with HTCcode.

I think the mixed reports are because thought the web sites say they can unlock blackstones, it's not a fully developed process, so some can be unlocked, others cannot.

Edited to keep on topic: to discuss JICs HTC tornado server & Sim-unlocker's blackstone unlock software please see their specific threads (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=479889 & http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=479890 respectively)

TotalGSM have offered support, and will offer refund if it doesn't work out in the end.

HTC - Code unlocking

David,

Thanks for the prompt response. A little more comfortable. I have an HD on Orange so will take a dive and see what happens.;)

totalgsm is the best!!!

I unlocked HTC Blackstone ...tho in 3minutes

HTCcode

Paid yesterday evening. No reply to my emails. Very concerned. Will report to paypal shortly
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DavidMc0:
Madness: no need to be concerned - they are legit (try PMing ferarripassion, who posted earlier in this thread & works with HTCcode/totalGSM).

Based on my experiences and those shared here, I think there are issues with some new Blackstones when it comes to unlocking.

[Edited to keep on topic of HTCcode unlocking: thanks Ferrari passion for finding the issue with the unlock code and giving refund.]
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pdc4:
David,

I have sent you a PM, but one quick question:

You were able to get direct support from sim-unlocker.com, even though you purchased the "product" from htccode.com?

Thanks,

P.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ferraripassion:
@DavidMc0

Apologies, the given to you was a mistake from our end.

The actual code was :- 11630636 , whereas you were given :- 1630636 , we somehow missed the 1.Apologies for that.

You have been refunded.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DavidMc0:
Thanks Ferarripassion, I've received your refund.

Yes, sim-unlocker gave support although I didn not buy directly. They knew it was through a reseller (HTCcode.com), but they were interested to know why their program was not working with my HD.

HTC - Code Unlocking

Just to let you guys know. Paid TotalGSM, sent email, got unlock code within 30 minutes. Entered twice and - hey presto - one unlocked phone.

Excellent service

:cool:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pdc4:
Hi,

Now that the phone is finally unlocked a feedback about htccode.com is in order.

Altough I have mixed feelings, all in all the global opinion is positive.

Most of the phones will be unlocked very quickly, with the code they provide you, in a very fast reply.

However, some, like mine, took a lot more effort and sometimes I felt that the reply was not fast or to the point. After insistence, they came up with a new solution, from another client provider, and this one, after some extra work, had the long expected result.

So, process was indeed long, but, in the end, I got what I payed them for.

Regards,

P.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ferraripassion:
Sorry, I can't understand what you are trying to say.

Have you got the wrong code from Orange?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] darioxmind:
Hi guys,

I have a question.

I live in Italy and I want to buy an HTC touch HD in England (so it is Orange locked).

If I unlock the phone, will I able to use it with any sim card of any italian operators?

Thank you in advance.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Radeon123:
Yes, once you unlock the phone you can use it on any operator with any sim card :)

When you pay for an unlock code, pop the sim in you want to use it will say it's locked and ask for an unlock code, then input the sim unlock code you paid for and that's it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] darioxmind:
Thank you Radeon for the quick response.

But just for curiosity, what will happen to the warranty if I unlock the phone?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Berry29tm:
hi, i have a touch HD TIM ITA.. if i take unlock codes what will happens?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Radeon123:
When you flash with an unofficial ROM, it supposed to instantly void the warranty, but even when I had a problem with my old Touch Diamond (faulty ear piece speaker), I sent it to HTC for repair with a flashed ROM and radio and never had a problem.

Received it back and they flashed it with a test ROM which was barely usable :rolleyes:, had to reflash it again.

Never had a problem sending back my other old phone either on a contract, the Tytn 2, had to send it back to Orange UK for replacement, had 3 of those, flashed all of them, Orange never said anything :D

Does totalGSM or HTCCODE unlock the HTC Touch HD from TMN Operator - Portugal?

Thanks.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] goody123:
hi there, I just the new user of the PDA phone....I got my HD today I bought from amazon and when I put my o2 sim card it already has signal and can use normally so I was wondering that do i need to unlock in order to use it with another sims worldwide or is it mean it has already unlocked? how can i check??

Thx
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] afr33s:
Do you have a friend not on O2? Borrow their SIM. If that works then your phone is unlocked :). In the UK O2 phones are sold unlocked. It's only us "lucky" Orange customers that are shackled!

Unlock Client Not Working

Hi,

im having problems with the unlock client that HTCcode.com gave me, reading through the thread i can see that several other people have had similar problems with the client but there has never been an answer to it.

the problem i am having is this:

Run The program.

Click unlock.

Plug in phone.

Accept the App on screen -> screen goes black

Disable USB connections in Active Sync.

Click ok on prompt

MODEL: BLAC

Please Wait.....

Then the program crashes, cant click anything, the only thing to do it to close it down manually

i've tryed getting help from the guy that sent me the guide but his no use, all i get is a 1 line emails response with no information.

Hopefully someone on this thread or forum will be able to help me with this, im sure someone must have had the same problem and been able to get around it.

thinks I have tried so far,

disable both AV and Firewall on my machine. No Luck

disable AV, Firewall,Windows Firewall and Router Firewall. No Luck

Tried the exact same process on another machine on another network. No Luck

Someone said something about only have .net framework 3.5 installed, tryed that. No Luck

Any comments or suggestion would be greatly appreciated

Hi,

I will buy an HTC HD blocked to TMN PORTUGAL, and probably i will use this program to unlock it...i will read a bit more and think about what to do, then i leave here my impressions.

:rolleyes:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ferraripassion:
We asked you to paste this log. Never got this from you.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
Log

Yes you did ask me to paste the log but i reply to you asking where the log was saved and i never received a response?

I emails sundarshan today as i think the issue is to do with the software, when it gets to the Please wait.... stage the software crashes and i need to force the program to close in task manager.

As of yet i have had no response to this email.

Can you be of any help?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Nuno SS:
Hi to all,

My experience with www.htccode.com was great.

I transfer the money via Paypal, and after 2 minutes i have the code in my email. With the code i also receive the instructions in a word file, and the link to start the process.

I made all step by step, and in fact the HTC HD was unblocked in 5 minutes.

Very happy...!

Just one note: Before starting all the process, read carefully all the instructions.

Regards.

Nuno SS
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
i Wish it was that simple with My Phone, dont know why the software wont complete.

any advise on what you did that could make my problem any easyer?

i've tryed everything i could think of but to no avail.

i've followed the instructions to a tee, could you give me an overview of your network setup?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Nuno SS:
Talk to them by MSN and you will have an answer. That's why we pay for the service, correct?

I also have some doubts, and they help me, so they will help you too.

Sorry but i don't know much more...!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
Thanks for the response, i've been trying to speak to them but im unsure where they are based so i dont know what time it might be where they are.

I'll keep trying
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] LuCkYaN:
Done on Romania on an Touch-HD blocked on Orange :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] deepakjohn:
india i guess from the contact number. normally once you get an unlock code you just need to enter on the phone. what I did was turn it on with the new sim. it told me that it was liked and asked for an unlock code.

all the best. hope you get your code soon. the wait is killing I know ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
Yeh I though as much, I actually starting speaking to someone on MSN but I got nowhere, they stopped responding after a little while.

the think that made me laugh is I asked for a refund and they said they needed to give me support with the issue before they would issue a refund...... where my support then, I have sent them emails and now spoke with them on MSN but nothing other than me telling them the same stories over and over again, there must be a few people all sharing the one emails account.

The think that I’m annoyed about the most is that this is actually my second Touch HD, the first one I had, I had to send in for repair because I had a problem with the screen (wouldn’t come back on after I sent it to sleep (top button)) I had that one unlocked from htccodes.com sent the code over to me and it unlocked fine.

the one I got back from repair was a refurb ( new motherboard) so I asked if I could have a new code for free - they said no so I had to purchase another code and now I’m having all of these problems, I mean it should be a really simple thing but I don’t know where I might be going wrong, everyone else seems to be able to run the software fine, I’m just not getting any help from them though, they must have had hundreds of people with a similar problem.

Anyway, I’ll stop rambling now and try another config and some other setting to see if I can get passed the crash.....

I’ll let you all know how it goes

ola tudo bem Nuno SS?

Certamente nou vou duvidar do teu sucesso!mas realmente conseguiste desbloquear o teu hd?

eu tentei por 15 euros no sim-unlocker for blackstone onde adquiri o software e ainda estou á espera do codigo gerado pela app

1 abraço colega hd
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Nuno SS:
Boas,

Sim consegui sem problemas de maior, está de facto desloqueado e a funcionar sem problemas.

O código chegou em 2 minutos, depois foi só ler atentamente as instruções e fazer as coisas com calma para não fazer asneiras e tudo correu bem.

Tive uma dúvida e entrei em contacto com eles pelo msn. Demoraram um pouco a responder, mas responderam e deram andamento e esclarecimento às minhas questões.

Não posso dizer mal do serviço deles.

Fica bem
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] realdany:
obrigado por o teu esclarecimento nuno!

Tudo de bom e em HD!

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
Finally, after more than a week of trying my Touch HD is unlocked and usable again.

I had to go to another site for an unlock code in the end although there software did give me a code straight away I sent them over an email and in the first response I had my code...... apparently there was something wrong with the server on their end.

anyways now that I have got the phone unlocked from another source I’d like a refund on the purchase price of the code I bought, I’ve sent over an email to Sudarshan with the request but as of yet I have not had a reply.....

ferraripassion I’m lead to believe you are part of htc-code.com are you not?

When can I expect my refund?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Nuno SS:
Good news...!

I'm sure you will have your money back from htccode.com, first of all because they say in the site that if you are not satisfied you get your money back, second they seem to be correct people, and third and most important, they live of the clients and of their positive feedback, so it's not because of 18,00€ that the good name and service of htccode.com will get not so weel seen in this community.

Regards from Portugal...!

htccode.com - Perfect Service!!

Just used www.htccode.com to unlock my Orange Touch HD. I had my Touch HD unlocked within 10mins of sending the necessary info to them. Very quick service. Based on this i would highly recommend them. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
Awful Service!!!!

Retract Statment
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dalle3:
thank god , a im not alone
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
I wouldn't be so bothered if i hadn't wasted so much time with them, there tech support is shocking, there must have been a few people monitoring the same email address as i got asked the same question about 4 times and after i had answered it for the 4 time i received no response, after i managed to start speaking to them on MSN and after explaing myself again for the 5 time they just stopped responding.

i don't see how a company that's supposed to have such a good reputation can treat its so called customers in this way

if i've paid for a service that has not be provided to me i'm leagaly intitled to a refund, am i not?

Unlock HTC Touch HD

I have a slightly different question - hope that I am in the appropriate forum, but my question is has there nothing been developed to enable this unlocking to be done for free????

Why must we pay these organisations which having read every page of this thread - DO NOT gaurantee that that the phone will be successfully unlocked.

:confused:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joeboyc2:
No, they provided me with some software that was meant to extract the code from my phone but this never worked, in the end I went to anther site. Excellent service, fully automated so you get your code in seconds and not in 1-48 hours with this ****e sorry excuse for a company.

I had a problem initially with the code but one email to them and it was sorted, nothing like the 20+ emails I have sent htccode.com about the problems I was having
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Trunkzeh:
Meh.. paid for this via paypal an hour ago, still no code. Thankfully if things fall through, you can always get paypal to refund it and freeze their accounts which is always nice I suppose. Funny thing about their non-existing msn account, no one is ever on the other end.. * sigh *
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cobrax2:
i paid via paypal, waited for 2 hours, nothing, then went to messenger, contacted them, and the guy sent me in 2 mins the code.

everything is ok
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] AnisKhan:
I purchased a code on http://www.htccode.com/

I didn't get an email. I waited two day and then logged on to MSN Messanger and spoke to sudarshan1990@gmail.com (as per instructions on their website). He replied in a minute and gave me the code. He said he had emailed it 2 days ago. Anyway, it all works fine now.

Initially worried but everything turned out well.

How have an unlock Touch HD.

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] djcedric:
is the code just to sim unlock or for something else???
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dutchprop:
No code yet....

I've paid, emailed and send messenger messages...but so far no code...:confused:

15 hours and ticking :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dutchprop:
Yes, this code is to sim-unlock your phone, so that you can put other providers in as well.

I used the HTC-Code website to unlock my HTC Touch HD a couple of months back.

I paid via PayPal and then sent them an email with my IMEI.

After 2 hours, give or take a few minutes, I got an email with my code.

I had to enter it twice (I typed it in correctly first time, and it accepted it but nothing happened so I typed it in again and then the PDA loaded up and was unlocked)

Overall very good service, NO software involved, you just send your IMEI code and money via PayPal and sooner or later you get your unlock code via email. Couldn't be simpler; thank you HTC-Code!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] BerniMan:
Service? What service?

Hey guys,

I'm almost starting to think this thread has been spammed with positive comments about htccode.com. I paid the € 18,- yesterday and my HTC is still locked.

So I'm not at all satsified with the service htccode.com provides. :mad:

I paid with my creditcard instead of a paypal account. The instructions say that when you pay with CC, you have to e-mail your IMEI. Text from site: "Those who paid using Moneybookers ex Ideal or even Debit/Credit card, please email the IMEI no frontech@gmail.com, we will calculate your code manually and email the code back with instructions ."

So I e-mailed my IMEI and I got a quick response "Just use the automated system to get your codes.". Well, that obviously doesn't work. I did try it, but I get the error "

PayPal: Transaction out of [url]http://htccode.com[/url] webpage or not defined! Contact on mail: [email]frontech@gmail.com[/email]. Communication Closed."

I've mailed them about 4 more times now, because I'm going on vacation wednesday and that's why I need the unlock code. No response.. nothing.

I already said I want my money back so I don't have to deal with this crap. There are plenty of other site who do the same....

So I guess my last chance is that user "Ferraripassion" will send a PM to fix this.

So far, I do NOT recommend htccode.com
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mittu1:
STAY AWAY FROM http://www.htccode.com/

I agree with the previous thread. This website stinks. I requested a code for my HTC TOUCH HD over 30hrs ago. I have raised a dispute with Paypal!! No response to emails apart from servers are down, use automated unlocking tool, which itself does not work:

Connecting to server...

Connected - Sending data in progress...

==========================================

Phone IMEI:	IMEI BLANKED

Phone Model:	HTC ; N/A

|Server response|: Server side code error: HTC_P:02

Sorry service is temporary unavailable. Try later.

Finised! - Elapsed time: 00:00:16

No mention on the website of problems otherwise I would have gone elsewhere! This website sucks! Stay away. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!!
