Free Unlock HTC Wildfire? - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I plan to buy a HTC Wildfire for my brother but unfortunately, the phone is Network Locked.
Is there any change we have a program or something that would unlock it for free?
I really don't trust the sites a la : www.unlockyourphone.com ... and Vodafone won't unlock it for free.
Thanks and really looking for an answer.
Best Regards,
DH

I bought mine from Vodafone and they unlocked it for free, on the spot. I did not extend my contract with them, I just bought the phone.
P.S: I`m from Romania.

If u are in the uk, get it from somewhere like carphone (all their phones are unlocked and debranded) or sim free from expansys

Did you manage to unlock your phone? I also have a Vodafone romania locked wildfire and don't know what to do about it. Thanks.

Vodafone unlock contract sims for free.
Will only unlock free paygo if the older than 1 year.
You'll have to pay.
I used htccode. No problems.

I am with Vodafone on 30 days contract sim only and I bought my wildfire on pay as you go. I phoned customer services and they unlocked for me free of charge.

Free Unlocking is not possible to get for the Latest Phones,So i suggest you to get the paid unlock code to unlock the Phone from Network lock,that is best than using the Unlocking programs and software......You can get the Unlock code from here
Mobileunlocksolutions.com and unlock this is trust-able source..............

Hi you can unlock your mobile by unlock codes and for codes you can try Mobileunlocksolutions and get codes to unlock your mobile..

Hy guys,
First time writing on the forum. I'm from Romania and i have an HTC wildfire locked on vodafone .
I bouught a code from gsmliberty.net...and and and..nope it didn't work...i spent last 3 days chating with them and leaving tickets to the suport team but not any luck iuntill now.
The thind is that after i insert the unlock code under the sim unlock pin message ..it apears an error message that says "incorrect password".
Now..i'ce checked the security under settings and deselect every password that i found including here SIM pass , unlock password , unlock path...everithing i could...but still nothing
Could enyone give me a piece of advice ?
Thank's in advance
For now i cannot say "Sent from my HTC Wildfire"

Complete lie. Both the HTC Desire and the HTC Desire Z can be sim unlocked for free.
Its a shame noone has dedicated some time as there problably is a free way for the Wildfire as well.

We need a version for wildfire
there is a tool "Universal sim unlock for S-off’ed HTC devices" but it doesn't work for wildfire, maybe a hope for the next future, look at sieempi dot eu blog

Doesn't the HTC dev website give you an unlock code for free?

as far as i know htc dev will only allow for custom roms to be used and custom recovery to be put on. will not remove sim lock, carriers would go nuts if it did.

Yes it says in the frequently asked questions that radio and sim lock are still locked and it will still say s on, sim lock is a carrier issue if they unlocked it carriers would kick off as they wouldn't be able to use they're branding effectively.
And radio still being locked might cause problems for cm7 users.

I heard that you could call your carrier to give you the code to unlock your phone, but 3 wouldn't do it unless the phone was on another network and I was joining them. I'm on o2 and wanted to remove 3'a Sim lock, but no joy. could have tried my carrier to.

i went to a phone unlocking shop and they did it there and then for a tenner. also, if you can get your hands on a xtc clip you can s-off and remove sim lock

how to unlock my htc desire?

Hi there, i just bought an htc desire from ebay but it comes locked to orange network, but since is now mine i would like to unlock it to any network... does anyone ever done this? Can you please share a solution... many thanks
Htccode.com
Buy an unlock code from one of the many sellers on ebay for about 10 quid. Insert a non Orange sim in the phone and enter the unlock code when prompted, and then enter it a second time. Job done

Hi there, I too have an Orange branded Desire which I would like to get unlocked.
Could you pls tell me which service you used, and were u able to get the phone unlocked?
The only drawback to buying a phone on eBay is watch out for fraud, if they claim on their insurance saying the Desire was lost or stolen, itll get IMEI Blocked, so no matter what network its on its fooked!
there is a thread on this somewhere im sure of it

HTC Desire sim unlock

Hello guys!
Has anybody news with subject?
I have bought a sim-locked phone recently and don't know, what to do with it
Please, share your experience if you have.
There are many trusted websites for unlocking your desire. Find one and check its valid. If it is they ask four your imei and some money. After a while you get your unlock code. You put the sin that the desire doesn't support in your phone and it will ask for an unlock code. Input your code and your done

Avoid the websites. I had nothing but grief with them. Simply ring the phone operator that the phone is locked to and request an unlock code. in the UK they have to give you this but will charge around £15. This is what I did with my locked to "3" Desire. Now unlocked after a 5 minute call.

I bought a desire from ebay which is unlocked (as the seller said), using an unlock code calling the operator (o3). I don't have the unlock code. Is there any possibility to be locked again after wipe?

[Q] Is there any way of free unlocking ?

As the title says i am wondering if i can sim unlock this mobile phone as im a starter in this part of xda i dont know much about this particulr model .
I have a htc desire z bought from vodafon romania and i want to know if i can do anything for free if not please recommend me a good unlocking site .
Thnakyou .
if you go through the proper rooting procedure, you get sim unlock + S-ID off to go with it as well
The full guide is in the XDA Wiki. Yes, you can SIM unlock for free.
Sent from my Desire Z running CM7.
Find the gfree method in the wiki. They explain it well there and its easy to do. I did it to mine. You can also just unlock without rooting (but why would you do that?)
Sent from my XDA using HTC Vision.
I actually called T-mobile (which I cancelled the service months ago) and they gave me the SIM unlock code. It worked perfect. As long as your account was in good standing when you cancelled or ended the contract with them.

Hi Z51. I'm Newbie tonight, seems great site and glad to find it. I've just bought an HTC ONE X + . Phone locked to Orange, though still waiting for a micro sim card from my Provider for years with Cable & Wireless then carphones charles Blunstone bought us over years with them.
Now Talkmobile who uses Vodaphone network equipment. This is an unwanted upgrade from thye seller and although I will try, I don't hold much hope with Orange for unlocking code. Please PSM in lieu of receiving a new sim.
I'll give you my number through there.
Anybody else for help, plse welcome to it.

Hai, In order to unlock your mobile you can use unlock codes. If you want unlock code for your HTC one x mobile you can get it from Unlocking4u.com . Here you can specify your mobile model, imei, network and country. Then they will send the code to your mail along with instructions.

Can't you unlock it on www.htcdev.com?
I don't think he means the bootloader, I think his handset is carrier branded.
I'm not too sure on how to do it myself, if there is a way I think Mike1986 or Football might know.

Ring T mobile and request an unlock code, I don't think they can refuse by law, they will charge you around 15 quid.
1. Is your bootloader unlocked?
2. Are u running a custom rom?
If you have even 1 of these as fare as I'm aware u have to be on stock for the unlock to work. espeshaly if your getting the same code time and time again.

Here many services are available to unlock your HTC one x.You can get the unlock code from the site Simpleunlocking.com here they ask your phone's IMEI number.If you give them,then they deliver unlock code to you. You can unblock your phone by using this unlock code.

If you on contract with them it's free and even if your on pay as you go its free. You can use any website to get an unlock code and use that as well.

Are you sure it's free on Three? Every time I've asked them, they've quoted £15.32 in store and through phone calls to unlock. And the only info I can find on the website, claims pretty much the same: http://support.three.co.uk/srvs/cgi...sername=Mobile:mobileUser?s_search=helpsearch
Probably would be cheaper from somewhere else though.
It would be a lot cheaper elsewhere but I know they had to give my sister an unlock code for the i9000. But I'm sure I read somewhere as well in the UK there not aloud to sell simlocked phone but if they do there abliged to give you the unlock code.
Best thing to do is check citizens advice website if you don't want to pay for it to see if the info is true. I only heard it through the grapevine, but what's £3-5 to get an unlock code its a lot cheaper than i****e unlock cides
