HTC Desire HD on T-Mobile Unlocked in 9.253 Seconds :D
[Desire General] Grey Area:
Let me first say I have no idea what type of HTC desire my fiancee has, or how to find out...but...

Downloaded the windows version...do I just connect the phone and then run it? Do I need the HTC Sync software installed for it to work? What connection mode should the phone be in? Which file do I run, adb.exe or the other one?

So far when I plug the phone in, in HTC Sync mode with the HTC software NOT installed and click the HTC_Unlock****.exe file it stops responding.

If anyone can give me advice I'd be grateful!

I hunted all over the internet to get my phone unlocked. I used another site but the code never came through, i found this site i used live chat to confirm they had the code, i ordered and i got the code with 15 mins and it worked first time and it was the cheapest i found compared to other companies.Website is listed above.

oh well replying to myself :) solved! probably i mixed up (updated to original android version) the android driver on my computer when using my other phone (Xperia Arc S).

It doesn't work! ....then "solved"! How???

This is unhelpful, how did you solve it????

You said "it worked from cmd" ?!?!?!?!? CMD could mean anyhting - command line? and what command did you run???

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

Thanks a million! It works perfectly after downloading the hboot (android) driver from here http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install for my Win 7 64-bit. The link works,

Hi!

I'm having my desire x for several weeks now and noone can unlock it - no mobile-shop, no sim-unlock - website.. I need to unlock it for my business trips but our provider charges 150€ for unlocking a phone, which is not worth much more than that..

Any Idea how to remove the network-lock from a HTC Desire X? I couldn't find anything like that in the forum. it is already rooted, but still S-ON.. I will be thankful for any helpful information.

I have worked through a few problems others have encountered on here but failed to find a solution.

Currently if I have my Desire on and in debug mode it is listed in the device manager as 'My HTC' and i receive the 'app only available for htc Desire' etc error.

I have also had it installed with different drivers giving the error "AdbWriteEndpointSync returned error 6"

Hi,

I am new to this forum and would like to know a step by step procedure to unlock my HTC desire phone locked to 3 uk network. I have downloaded SIM-Unlock Utility v0.9.5 and when I ran the exe file it shows device not found and also ask to enable ADB. I dont really understand these terms as I know nothing about mobiles technology apart from using the mobile device.

I would be grateful if somebody could let me know a step by step procedure for dummies like me to unlock the phone.

Thanks a lot!

bye!
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
Roll back to what? Being restricted to one network? Why would you want to do that? What's the point?

Anyways, no one posted a "roll back" method.
[Desire General] PeQuEsan:
There's a reason, trust me... :) I've got a legal unlock code, and I want to test it. That's why I want to roll back.

If no one knows, then I'll test it myself, first flashing radio and test, and after flashing hboot, and test...
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
It won't work. One can change radio and/ or hboot with the phone still being locked. Maybe the op author can give you some explanations.
[Desire General] jessec:
The Windows version wouldn't work for me at all.. with the phone booted or in HBOOT USB PLUG mode..

Both from a HP laptop in XP, Mac Intel using VMWare with XP or Bootcamp with XP.

It kept giving me BSOD even on the VMWare partition, or just wouldn't find the phone/work at all.

Grabbed the Linux ISO instead, stuck it in VMWare on my Intel Mac with phone in HBOOT USB PLUG and it seemed to work first try (said done and had no errors)!

I have no other SIM to test right now to confirm it worked because my girlfriend's phone got lost tonight (which is why I wanted this one unlocked for her to use for now). Haven't replaced the SIM yet to check though..

EDIT Dec 22nd:

For some reason it didn't occur to me that there was no unlock code given, and that the utility likely only works with the new SIM card in it. Got a Bell SIM card today, re-ran the Linux ISO via VMWare on my Intel Macbook with the SIM card in my HTC Desire from Telus. Everything went through OK, and the phone is now working on Bell!

Thanks for the great utility :)
[Desire General] PeQuEsan:
Don't think it will happen... for... security? reasons...

Then, we don't even know where sim locks are stored? I assume they're not inside hboot, radio or rom partitions, as it survives reflashes...

Hi, I am trying to use version 0.95 on my Orange HTC Desire. I installed HTC sync (and then uninstalled, but left the drivers) and when booted into Android running 'adb.exe devices' the console reports:

List of devices attached
HT05DPL08363 device

RUnning the unlock tool causes the phone to reboot into the Hboot.

However, once in the Hboot the tool just waits at the screen saying "Waiting for Hboot...", even though the 'hboot USB' has loaded.

Running 'adb.exe devices' returns no devices listed. I assume I don't have the right drivers installed?

When I run adb from Linux/OSX the device is listed just fine, even when in the Hboot. Would it be possible to have a Linux/OSX version of this program (not a Live CD, just an executable/script)?

Problem with app

Hello,

I have recently used this app to unlock my Htc Desire. While the initial unlock was successful (used 0.9.5, got error 13, then used 0.94., all ok), the phone loses all network connectivity (no service) or has limited connectivity (only emergency calls) on 2G (only if data is turned on) or 3G (if data is either on or off).

My desire is rooted (revolutionary), official Gingerbread ROM, 1.002 HBOOT + radio 5.17.05.23 (I have also tried other radios without success).

Is there any way either to fully complete the unlock or revert to the initial locked-network state (so that i can try unlocking with an unlock code)?

Thanks in advance
[Desire General] teodosius86:
I should add that this is the same problem encountered on page 15 of this thread, since my phone is originally Orange Branded.

What exactly do i need to wipe on my phone to erase simlock info and revert to my old network-locked state?
[Desire General] sieempi:
I don't think it's related to the app or unlock (the phone seems to be unlocked). There's a hidden menu with radio settings you could try, or installing various radios, checking with your operator to see the status of your plan or sim, etc. If it's a a stollen phone (or has an uncertain history) there's a tiny posibility it's banned by gsm networks.. there are just to many things to account for..

Thank you for your reply,

I have tried the following :

- Different radios

- Hidden *#*#4346...... settings, tried different commands

- Used a different sim card from a different operator

- used a foreign roaming card from on different networks (tried all operators), no 3g only 2g (and event that has problems)

- tried to run a different ruu (revert back to froyo) and almost bricked my phone

- used flashboot commands to change some values as explained on pages 13-14

No succes,

How did the other guys who had this problem before solve it?
[Desire General] houghw:

I've downloaded the software and tried to tun it. All I get is a command type box with the following message:

Your phone will restart to hboot and then shortly reboot to Android.

Although this is a brick-free solution, do not disconnect the phone from the computer during this procedure, nor navigate in hboot menu.

[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
That''s only for the evo3d. You just hold vol down + power.
[Desire General] joschi4:
I know, but it does not work.

Maybe I have done something wrong with the installed ROM.
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
Try powerbutton+backbutton, and select "bootloader".
[Desire General] joschi4:
This is the problem: When I press powerbutton+backbutton and never get a selectionmenu. I see first the white htc background and then I have to enter the SIM-Code. I press these buttons during the hole process.
[Desire General] joschi4:
Finally I could reach HBOOT.

Next problem:

When I choose "FASTBOOT USB", Windows detects ADB HTC Bootloader, but HTC_Desire_Unlock_v0.9.5 crashes everytime.

When I choose "HBOOT UBS PLUG" I got a warning in the Device Manager and I am unable to update the driver.

- Android Bootloader Interface could not be installed. The Hash is not available anymore. What does this mean? (I used the hboot-usd driver you gave to me)
