I know, I know...do a search.

Well, I did do a search and turned up quite a bit of unlocking information, but the only free tools seem to be for app/cid unlocking, and not SIM unlocking. I've just rebuilt my Dash with a new screen, flashed it over to Rose-Rickey, and am very happy because PIMBackup works on it, so all my contacts, messages, etc are on it now. It's fast, too.

But, it's still locked to TMobile. So, I'll ask a couple of questions.

Has anyone come up with a FREE SIM unlocking solution for the TMobile DASH, yet? SPV services has allowed me to freely unlock all my previous HTC phones, but this one seems somehow different.

Let's face it. Free solutions are always preferable...and I have an email in to TMobile about that very subject. Not sure if they'll unlock it for me, since I'm not a customer...but I can't be a customer. There's no native TMobile service in this area.

If no free solution is available, I know the user named Jockey will do an unlock for a "good price," but noone ever mentions what that price is. How much does s/he charge? If this violates some forum rule, I apologize...but that information would be very handy.

Could anyone help me out, here? I have a lovely phone, sitting on my desk, collecting dust. It's a nice *project* at this point, but not a useful device. I just want to get it working, since ATT disables wifi in all their phones. And, since ATT is my carrier...I need your help.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Free sim unlock for dash don't exist
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
pm jocky to find out the secret price...if you feel its too much, dont do it. you really have nothing to lose.

and no, there is no free way unless you are a tmo customer
[HTC Excalibur] chuckknight:
That surprises me...free solutions exist for all other HTC models with which I'm familiar, including the Blue Angel, SMT5600, 2125/SDA, and 8x25 series. What can I say...I like HTC phones. Hmmm...I wonder what's so different about the Dash?

Anyway, my appeal to TMobile has apparently paid off. You see, I live in an area which TMobile does not service...at all. 100% roaming, 100% of the time, within a 15 mile radius of my home. (I borrowed a SIM, and tried it) Consequently, one of their employees has agreed to request a code on my behalf, which I should receive by email within 24 hours.

We'll see if it actually happens.

Thank you, all, for the guidance!

jockey charges about $25, fastgsm $20, ebay $18
[HTC Excalibur] chuckknight:
Well, my appeal to TMobile worked. They provided me an unlock code, and my Dash has been working on the ATT network for 2 days. And, may I say, this is a NICE phone! And...with the Rose-Rickey ROM, it's fast...works great with my WiFi setups.

Wasn't sure I was going to like it as much as my 8125 and 2125, but this thing is NICE. And, it fits in my shirt pocket. First HTC phone I've had, that can do that, easily. My intent was to have a light, thin WM smartphone that included WiFi...and that leaves out *all* of ATT's offerings. The phone models ATT carries often have wifi...but ATT has the circuitry stripped out of them. Case in point, 2125/TMo SDA.

All in all, I'm quite pleased with my DASH, and I'm wanting to give back to this community. If I can figure out how to design them, I'll whip up a few home screens or post some background images. A way to say thank you for the encouragement.

Thank you all.

What did you write to Tmobile?

My 3G keeps crashing and my friend gave me his old dash as a back up.

I couldn't get lokiwiz to work on the dash, so i am still looking for an unlock method. Who did you email and what did you say???

Thanks in Advance...
[HTC Excalibur] chuckknight:
Nothing...nothing was written.

I just called their store, spoke to one of their representatives, and made a request. It was that simple.

Maybe I just lucked out, and got an extra-friendly person who wanted to help. But, it proves that TMobile does do this sort of thing, and the results are delivered by email.

The procedure requires that it be requested through a TMobile number/account, though...and that the account be in good standing, and active for a minimum of 90 days. Perhaps the friend who gave you the phone would qualify for a free unlock code? If necessary, it could be requested through him.

[HTC Tornado] illi:
I have migrated to the TouchPro;-) The TouchPro's security feature is much to be desired:-( When locked, the homescreen doesnt show much. HTC support is not much help. Their new ROM upgrade released last week do not address this issue.

I am thinking of ripping the Tornado's security/lock files but am not sure which are the relevant files and how do I get it installed to the TouchPro; if it works:-P

Any expert advise will be much appreciated.

Thank you.

I just got my Touch Dia. up an activated this morning. But, on my damaged old Touch(Sprint) cell, I had downloaded a .cab that was kinda like a delete all cache, cookies, and history- program. You were also able to soft reset after aswell. Used it all the time, but don't remember the name of it right now, dangit!

Don't know if this phone needs that type of app, but for me it was nice since I was able to delete all cache, an internet history all at once.

As per your request I will make a set of status bar icons that use girly-er (sp?) colors. Just tell me what you want based off of my current theme.

Battery

- Green: 100%-50%

- Yellow: 50%-25%

- Red: 25%-0%

- Purple: error

Data

- Green: best connection

- Yellow: good connection

- Orange: ok connection

- Red: bad connection

I was thinking something along the lines of pink = green, purple = yellow, and red = red.

wow we are a bunch of geeks, a girl enters the "room" and we all fall at her feet to see what we can do for her(and i do include myself in this). i think it is fantastic that girls get interested in stuff like this.

as for the theme, i personally only feel that a theme would be considered girly if it were a brighter set of colors, but i'll bet anything that someone here can come up with something to satify this fine female, i'll bet that at least three themers either create a single theme or three separate themes for ana here to try out.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] AGx-07_162:
Haha. So true. I had actually started a theme for my GF a while back. I stopped working on it and made two more. But I plan on re-working it now that I know more about theming and will be releasing it.

It may not be Ana's taste, if she doesn't like pink but hopefully it'll help fill that "no girly themes" gap.

My K&B theme has lots of purples (which turn out to be pink on a lot of the lightter colored icons)

I'm not odne yet, but swap out the wallpaper and it could easily be a girly theme.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] heldc:
On the topic of colors that would be good for a chiq theme, I'd love to see something mostly purple, with some aqua for accent, and black&silver. #990099 for the purple, and #004040 for the aqua. I HATE pink. Pink is evil. Also, flowers, celebrities, and anything "cute" are also evil. :)

Some of the ahome themes at http://jasoncohenitservices.com/index.php/topic,2.msg2.html#msg2 are pretty chiq friendly. The purples in Crystal for ahome are awesome, Elegance is nice, Girly Goth is GREAT, I love the look if not the color of Blue Crystal. I just don't like ahome, and want the notification bar skinned too! I'm about to start playing with customizing themes posted here (going to try a purple matrix thing first!), but for those who're looking to make 'girlier' themes, that's an idea what this geekchiq likes. :D

Why does everyone think that a girlie theme has to be pink? Not all of us like cutsie butterflies and hearts. I'm using Aero right now, but I really wish there was a theme that was still eye candy, but softer in color, hell, one that just looks like it belongs on the white phone would be good. It's hard to pinpoint what I'd really want in a theme, but I know that what we currently have is lacking for the females.

***and I know this isn't the place for it, but I'd really like to see a bootscreen of an android EATING an apple (because pissing on it just isn't good enough).
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] heldc:

I think you can pick up a sense of humor from CVS pretty cheap. Just sayin.

or, alternatively - this link is free: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcasm

Let's not take things personal and start attacking people and calling them names, that's not cool.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] heldc:
Saying sexist (or otherwise privileged/othering) things, even when the intent is humor or sarcasm, isn't "cool". It is, in fact, really ****ty and offensive. We all do it at times, we're all products of our society, and our society is inherently prejudiced. It doesn't make us horrible, it just means we're not perfect and need to try and watch ourselves so we don't come across in ways we'd rather not.

Calling someone on coming across badly isn't an attack. It's pointing out that, to use the analogy frequently used in racism discussions and often used in discussions of other social inequity: their ass is showing. Yeah, I could have phrased my comment better, said 'don't say sexist ****', but sexism tends to piss me off, as it should, and I didn't deeply ponder what I was going to say. If one wants to not be a racist/sexist/homophobic/whatever asshole, then one has work to not say racist/sexist/homophobic/whatever things, regardless of what one means to say.

Also, in order to not entirely derail this topic, perhaps discussion should occur elsewhere, such as in PM or the discussion lounge, if it continues.

The girly theme is also in a little program to install fonts, builds and themes. It comes with 30 fonts and can install one from your desktop for you. If you are a noob install SuperG1 if you are "SmRt" download SuperG1Light. It does not come with any files it will apply a font from your desktop. It will also install a build from your desktop. I just thought I should post a link XDA has done so much for me so time to give back.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] HTCOmega:
Well, actually my good sir....

You missed the entire point to the post. I was simply excited over a functioning mobile XML editor. As of yesterday I had never found a functioning editor that would work with files over a few kbs. So, yeah, I was excited. I get awfully tired w/ moving files back and forth from SD card to PC to simply edit a few strings.

Learn to read in context, friend. The "piracy" thing was a simple side note. I actually prefer open source software but nothing readily available in the mobile XML editor field. So I often "test drive" software via P2P or torrent simply because a 30-day trial is often not enough time to adequately evaluate a program that I may or may not use in the end so I refuse, if given the option, to pay for a program until I fell I have thoroughly tested something I would have to pay cash for. Buyer's remorse, and whatnot, yanno?

Anyways, not saying to crack this (unless you feel like it), just letting folks know we have a very functional editor to add to our mobile arsenal.

So, lighten up, pay attention to the point of the posts and stop whining. =]

Thank you.
