Why?? im from greece. i made the process of unlocking bootloader in htcdev.com using a simcard of vodafone Gr but now i changed company (cosmote GR)that is not supported and doesn't exist in the list of RUU.Now when i start the phone using vol down and power button (with the new simcard inside) it says bootloader unlocked but S-ON.
---I m not sure if it was S-OFF with the previous simcard--.
p.s Thank u very much generraly and really really congratulations to the forums of xda for the great work and action.
If you unlock via HTCDev you are only unlocking the bootloader you are not making the phone into an S-Off state.
Changing similar card will not effect your bootloader, if your bootloader says unlocked then your unlocked. Just root and install cyanogenmod 7

Hi,
Simple question, Does "root" the phone Sim-Unlock too (as far as I leave rooted ROM installed) ?
Thank you
No. You need to buy an unlock code.
Root gives you system write access to your phone, to install custom roms, radios and make further modifications.
Sim-unlock only unlocks your phone to use different sim cards.

thank you, i know what sim unlock does
I just wanted to know if root + goldcard was a way to bypass unlock code.
thank you
If you have a branded phone, you will need to use a Gold Card to unlock your phone's CID check and then you will be able to root.

Hello, i have one piece htc wildfire which is network locked...can anyone tell me how to unlock it?
create goldcard and flash with any wwe rom you want
Hey,
I got an unlock code off of htcsimunlocknow.com but I am not sure how to enter it into my phone. It has been flashed with CM6 RC2 and it won't ask for any sort of sim unlock code even if I put an invalid sim into the phone. I know the phone is locked with the Telstra for sure!!
So if anybody knows how to enter the unlock code I would be able to say how reliable that site is!!
EDIT: THANK GOD. I had a nandroid backup of the original rom that came with the phone so I just flashed back to that. Inserted the invalid sim after the flash and it asked for the unlock code which I entered and IT WORKED!!
Also, the site i mentioned has a live chat and the fella helping me was so patient as it took my about 30mins for me to actually pay as I was stuffing around withy my paypal and he got the unlock sent to my email about 10mins after the payment went through! I'm not sure if flashing back to cm6 will make the phone locked to one network again though :/

gold cards are fairly easy to make all you need is a spear sd card (doesnt have to be very big) heres a guide: http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
As far as I know, with a goldcard you can root and debrand your phone, but not sim-unlock it.
If it is possible to remove the sim-lock using a goldcard, please explain how.
Confirmation
I confirm, I just spent the night flashing my new wildfire to simunlock it, the flashing finally worked but it is still sim locked !!!
Really very surprising, it means the simlock info is stored somewhere which was not affected by the flashing, which is quite astounding.
If you have any info about what to delete for that...
I unlocked my wildfire for 25 euro on the web. I sent my IMEI and in about 2 hours they sent the unlock code and it worked perfectly.

Who is your provider?? you can try unlock code from your provider and get your HTC wildfire unlocked..if not you can get it from online provider..just make a try with Prounlocking and get unlock code for your mobile and get it unlocked..
Go to a phone unlocking shop. I got one done for £15 in the uk. Or you could ask about and see if you know anyone with a xtc clip. As that will s-off your device and remove sim lock. Good luck
Also sim lock stuff is stored in with the hboot and radio and stuff.

I found a code for $9 at Nck Codes. It wouldn't work with CM7, has to put a stock ROM on the phone to unlock then flash CM7 again.
Please sign this petition https://www.petitionbuzz.com/petitions/htcbootloader
This petitiion is to ask HTC to make a bootloader unlock tool for the Wildfire S so users can do what they want with the device they bought including using modified boot, recovery and system images. I feel that HTC should not lock there bootloaders at all because once a customer has bought the phone it is no longer HTC's property it belongs to the customer after buying the handset. So please HTC allow use to unlock are bootloaders so we can modifiy are phones the way we want them to be.
This is for the moment only way to unlock the Htc wildfire s .
Thanks

Well according to your own post you already have hboot 2.00.0029 which is the one from htc dev, you need to unlock it using the unlocktoken.bin from htc dev, you did follow ALL the instructions at htc dev including the email they sent you,?
Once you unlock bootloader flash a custom recovery best one is probably 4ext
Flash a new new rom then flash the boot.img.
Look around the forums for more info.

Well, that it is easy to solve. Relock your bootloader by booting in fastboot and typing:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Then run the script. :good:
