Thank You very much! Work like a charm. :)
[Desire General] bobsie41:
I am not sure if this is a daft question or not!

If i unlock my desire this way, does this give me the ability to install any ota updates without the use of a goldcard, rather than having to wait for my network provider to 'doctor' them before i am able to install? :confused:
[Desire General] EddyOS:
No, this is for SIM unlock
[Desire General] sr1ks:
Unlock allows you to use your sim card with another network provider...

in order to install other ROM's or get updates from HTC(which might never come) you need to ROOT and install a custom rom.
[Desire General] neekos:
Hi.

Does the phone need to be rooted for this to work?

Thanks
[Desire General] neumrli:
Downloaded => burned => booted => worked few second => done in first try, version 0.1.

Thank you very much, I have now 30 euros extra in my pocket :)

[Desire General] sieempi:
That's a damn fine discount.. :p
[Desire General] baadnewz:
nice work :) well the cheapest unlock code is 15 $ if everyone who used your utility donate you 5 $ they still have 10 extra. lucky for me im factory unlocked.

but great to see more and more Romanians involved in Desire community
[Desire General] sieempi:
Yeah, seeing active RO folks out here is a refreshing thought. God's ways are mysterious.. ;)

Orange Romania Desire

Rooted and S-Off

It says it unlocks it and reboots the device but still not unlocked...

I have heard something that Orange Romania change something about the devices, I've tried to buy an IMEI from the several internet sites but none I've been given worked(received the same code from all).

BREAKING NEWS: Worked for me too, on the 4th time on VirtualBox with Linux type set there and the unlock image. Hope it stays unlocked :D
[Desire General] derfull:
Hi,

I have used your tool to sim-unlock 2 phones

It worked fine, on the two phones.

But i have noticed something strange. After the first reboot, all gmail account password have been blanked.

The phone have really different condition.

One rooted + S-off + CM 7 rom.

One rooted + S-on + Leedroid rom.

Maybe the account ID was linked with the sim card ? i don't know

Thx ;)

i'll consider a donation, a sim-unlock cost more than 50$ in france -_- ( i know ..... %$#@ )
[Desire General] sieempi:
As I've previously said, this might be just a security measure (or a conspiracy - Google tracking his users.. :rolleyes: ), just reenter your Google account password and you'll continue using your phone as before.

T-Mobile Montenegro unlocked successfully with first attempt
[Desire General] Geordie Boyo:
Just tried this three times..

I get an x3 error messages after connecting USB to the phone on Hboot.

then the fourth says "Done!".

I dont have a simcard from another provider to test this, but is this the norm for this to happen - with the error messages I mean?

Am running Windows 7 if that makes a difference, as nobody as stated what OS they are running if they were successful
[Desire General] Crustyloaf:
Yes, I also got several error messages followed by 'Done'. However, when I tried it with an O2 sim the phone was unlocked (was simlocked to Orange UK). Looks like yours is probably unlocked too.

Strangely the first time I ran the utility I didn't get any error messages at all, just the final 'Done'. It hadn't unlocked the phone though. Luckily the second time (with errors) did it.

By the way it doesn't matter what operating system you are using as the utility appears to boot into Linux from the boot media (CD in my case).

Simlock was Orange UK

EDIT: By the way. I used the utility version 0.2a
[Desire General] rdgate:
Tool says "Done! XD" and phone reboot, but still locked. I've retried many times with locked simcard, results are same.

Do I have no chance?:(
[Desire General] Crustyloaf:
Have you tried running it without a sim card in the phone or with one from a different network. My phone had an Orange UK simlock but I don't have an Orange sim. However, I can't remember whether I didn't have a sim in it at all when I ran the utility or whether I had put an O2 one in it.

Hope you have some success because this is a great little utilty. All power to the great sieempi!
[Desire General] Geordie Boyo:
Thanks, i will try a different simcard at work tomorrow and see if unlocked.
[Desire General] dr.lec:

Phone restarts but sim still unlocked

I've posted the same question in the Q&A section.

I'm trying to sim-unlock a HTC Desire smartphone (locked to the french operator bouygue telecom). I've tried to use the sim unlock utility, explaned above, the phone restarts but the sim still unlocked.

My question is: flashing a new stock radio would solve my issue? I'm ready to do some advanced manipulations to resolve this issue, but needs more help to find the way to do it.
[Desire General] sieempi:
I doubt you have a custom radio, the app should work with the one you have. Just be sure you booted the computer from the .iso (burn it on a Cd or try the usb-stick method) and keep trying. It might tell you that everything went ok but without an actual succes.. Keep trying a few more times. Also post here your radio version, please.
[Desire General] gionik:
Image burned on CD, booted from CD, executed the steps....all done :) Now, I can use my Desire on all network providers.

Great job sieempi - Very simple, with great results!!!

[Desire General] mohasea:
Hi everyone,

Thanks bro for your Help It works for me (Desire locked from french netWork Bouytelecom)
[Desire General] lvnatic:
Any way to lock it back to how it was in case I need my warranty? Cause i'm pretty positive the warranty is void once the SIM is unlocked, and I'm not taking the risks, not using any other providers besides vodafone anyway.
[Desire General] shorty_blitz:
I really doubt unlocking your phone will void the warranty!
[Desire General] Ultr@levure:
The warranty is NOT void when the sim is unlocked.

I tried it several times with VirtualBox: no errors but no success.

But it worked with a burned CD on the first time - although I got some errors/warnings. (It was too fast to remember the messages)

[Desire General] Scrupix:
Hi mate,

You don't be angry, as what we see here in this thread, for some users work and for other not, so I think if you follow the steps mentioned bellow it must work, if not probably you shell wait for an update of this.

And @sieempi deserves not one 2 beers ;) because it helped a lot of users from here (including me) and after I followed the steps mentioned bellow it worked for the first time ( I didn't even know how to make a bootable cd, but everything was well) So don't be impolite
[Desire General] Teh_Tech:
britzinelul u don't need 2 make a bootable CD, if u burn the ISO image it includes a linux boot!

And don't u think I did follow the instructions??? Don't try telling me anything as u don't know it all either!!!!!
[Desire General] M..N:
How about you calm down, no need to get angry because it doesn't work for you. Try booting it off a USB if you have one spare read the first few pages for a link.
[Desire General] immi79:
fone was locked to orange uk, first tried with sim inseted, said done ane restarted but fone was still locked, then inserted 3 uk sim and tried again, said done and restarted, and fone was unlocked :rolleyes: ,

question is, can this b used to unlock wildfire????

HTC Desire SIM-Unlock Utility
[Desire General] sieempi:
Sorry to hear about that.

Try to update your radio to the latest version. You should wait for an update if it still won't work.

Besides, there are also other methods of unlocking your device..
[Desire General] DarkInovator:
wow no offense but if you've tried 5 different optical drives and 2 computers and it "failed" you are clearly failing somewhere.

Maybe you should stick to buying unlock codes.
[Desire General] Richamuah:
Teh_Tech,

U are an half wit mate!

The process works fine for 90% of users. I imagine that you are just a fool who cannot follow simple instructions..

These were provided to you free of charge and if you bothered to read previous posts in the forum, you would've of been more informed and understanding to these great developers who are trying to empower users...

You think are tech savvy but clearly not...

You need to learn buddy and be positive, otherwise ... Go and play with a doll or something, at least you could probably get that right!

Makes me ashamed to be British, you fool!
[Desire General] Scrupix:
For me it worked that way, I just tried to help and like I said earlier, you don't be angry ;)

[Desire General] Teh_Tech:
sieempi: phone is LOCKED to Orange UK by Orange, hence the need to unlock, can't upgrade radio much as phone is not rooted & only a select few radios that'll work on locked Orange phones otherwise it'll come up network locked!!

DarkInovator: at least I don't fail to READ BEFORE I POST, I DID NOT fail, the method failed!!

Richamuah: YOU are the bloody fool that wants to keep his nose out of things that don't concern him!!!

Sure, the phone I tried is the 10% that don't work, how does that make me a fool or not tech savvy???

I am the one with almost 30 years PC & network maintenance, repair, config & troubleshooting under my belt, I bet YOU don't even have half of that!!!

Don't everybody go on a rampage of slagging me down just cos of 1 post, mind your flipping business, I DID NOT insult ANYBODY, I just stated it was a waste of my time which it was, no lies involved! Jees, maybe if people didn't butt into things that they shouldn't then this world would be.more harmonious and with less wars!!!!

I am happy to live in a country that promotes freedom of speech and I don't recall ANYWHERE in the rules here denying me that right, so I will post my views when & where I see fit! If something don't work & I get slightly annoyed, I will state so, just as if something works I will post to state I am happy & praise the persons involved with such, I trust this meets the approval of members here...

[Desire General] sieempi:
It's not about paypal but the attitude, and that's what matters the most! You're great! Thank you!
[Desire General] Teh_Tech:
Hold on people, DONT fire, it WORKED :-)

sieempi:

Sincere apologies for my first post, it DIDN'T work through booting the CD, but it DID work from USB booting!

I am big enough to know when I am wrong, and to apologise when I am wrong!

I did try the ISO in a virtual machine, but it didn't work as my Windows 7 machine don't always recognise the drivers for it, but I used the USB boot method, first time without a sim card inserted, no errors but phone reported, tried again with a foreign sim inserted n it threw up the following errors:

USB 1-7 device descriptor read /64, error 110 4 times &

USB 1-7 device descriptor read /18, error 71 4 times, then filled the screen with something like:

generic ttyusb usb_serial_generic_resubmit something, before I could write it all down it shut down, but now happy 2 report that there is another Desire that IS unlocked because of YOU!!!

Again, sorry & major thanks! :-)
[Desire General] M..N:
Glad the USB method worked
[Desire General] MirosPikos:

What about this method on the other device HTC Desire HD. Is ther another SIM Unlocking method for DHD?

I´ve tryed remote unlock with HTCCode.com but this is probably SCAM.

I was one of the first to Unlock my device using the tool, have been away for 2 week's on holiday using a different simcard. Worked wonderfully. Not a single issue (I used the first version of sieempi so tool) and flashes using vmware.

Brilliant one would recommend to anyone who can read instructions and burn and boot a cd.

Worked like a charm! took 2 tries, and bam. Unlocked Telus Canada HTC Desire!

Tried it with a Rogers prepaid sim. Put it in without trying the unlock just to make sure it didnt work by default, but it was network locked. So i ran the BIOS or whatever it is, and tried. No dice, still locked (but it rebooted, so i figured it worked...)

Tried again, phone didnt reboot, but program said it was done. Inserted Rogers Canada sim, and i was on Rogers!

Thank you so much! I will certainly be throwing 10 bucks in your paypal once payday hits! amazing work sir! :)

I did it as instructions says, it threw me some errors in process but then eventually i got "Done!"

Rebooted my phone, and it still says "Limited Service" Emergency Calls Only.

I got HTC Desire A8181 HBOOT 0.93 Unrooted.

Anyone?
[Desire General] sieempi:
If it didn't ask you for the network unlock code it means it's unlocked. I think the operator unregistered your sim.
[Desire General] k3lcior:
What should i do then?

nvm. seems its working now!

Thanks alot.
[Desire General] Mtodic:
Is this work with HD2 ?
[Desire General] ems1234:
Hi

do i burn the iso as an image file or current compilation?????

Using POWERISO by the way.

Thanks
[Desire General] Crustyloaf:
Open PowerISO

Click on BURN in the taskbar

Select 'Image File' and then browse to where you downloaded the sim-unlock utlilty

Select the iso file and click 'open'

Click on 'Burn' and it will create your sim-unlock utility cd.

Simples!
[Desire General] ems1234:
Ive burnt it as a current compilation. Would it make any difference?

Also am i right in saying that all i do now is insert this disk and change from my bios settings to boot from cd?

After that then what?
[Desire General] eleetxtreme:
sieempi îţi mulţumesc, merge perfect.

Works great. Good job!
[Desire General] Crustyloaf:
I think that all you have done is copy the iso file to the cd rather than burning the image contained within the iso. Look at the cd contents with explorer. If there is is just the one file, i.e. the HTC Simlock Utility iso, then you will have to burn another cd using the image method I detailed before.

Once you have the correct image burnt to the cd, set your pc to boot from the cd drive and restart it. It should boot up from the cd into the Sim-Unlock Utility. Then you just follow the instructions in the 1st post.

As you will see if you have read other posts in the thread, it might take several attempts before it works. Just because it says 'Done' doesn't necessarily mean the phone has been unlocked.
[Desire General] howardhopkinson:
Used the tool to unlock 2 HTC Desires and it worked brilliantly.

I just have to add that in both cases, I had to remove the sim cards first before it worked. That is, take out the sim, boot into Hboot and run the programme.
[Desire General] sieempi:
Thanks for the info. That's weird, thou, I've never had to remove the sim so far, and I've done a lot of simulations. It must depend on something else I didn't figure out so far.
[Desire General] ems1234:
How to get into bios?
[Desire General] Crustyloaf:
Different manufacturers have different ways of entering the bios (also known as setup). You will have to read the manual for your PC.

The second and third time it returns something about tty errors but no reboot

EDIT after 30 mins:

It works.

The problem for me is in CD / USB booting options. If I boot from CD (SATA) it reports a ot of I/O errors and unlock can't be done. With USB boot it returns only PCIE error but everything else works fine. Unlocking is done without inserted sim.
