Hi,
I bought a HTC EVO V 4G (Virginemobile) in US.
- First : I am linked to VirginMobile and I would like to find a solution to UNLOCK my phone
- Second : Now I am in Belgium and I need to find a solution to transfert the data from my actual SIM card (old phone with SIM card) and flash my new phone with the data to be able to use the new one (as a phone) .
If somebody know the procedure to realize those modifications?
Thank you in advance for your help

Hi all,
I have a locked T-Mobile Desire and wish to use my Orange sim card in it.
I have tested the phone with a T-Mobile sim and this works fine but when I put the Orange sim in I get no signal and the limited service message. I have also tried this with a Vodafone sim card and get the same.
I have a 8 digit unlock code but basically have no where to input it. Can anyone help me with this please?
Regards
James

unlock my HTC Desire without using another sim card
Hello,
Someone tried that to know if it's dangerous or not ?
Otherwise, I will wait for somebody who lend me it's sim card.
Thanks
Edit: I forget that, I'd like to unlock my HTC Desire without using a cable and without another sim card.

Hi all !
I have bought a branded HTC Desire HD and I wanted to :
- unlock SIM
- change rom with unbranded one
I have used "[TOOL][VIDEO] One click Radio S-OFF, SimUnlock (Easy Root Guide)" and setup an unbranded ROM
But now I can't register on any network (according to the SIM I have inserted) but when it's start it asks me my PIN.
Another thing is when I do manual network search I can find network, but never the good one according to my sim.
I have tried to update the radio and change the ROM (Cyanogen included) but nothing works. I have tried 3 sims with differents providers and none can catch the good network.
Does anyone has an idea to solve my problem ?
Thanks !!!
Hi, I am a newbie here!
I have a Desire from Softbank (Japanese carrier) which I would like to use with other SIM cards. But when I put another SIM card inside, I can not enter any unlock code.
Does anybody have an idea for this? I am willing to do whatever from soldering, over rooting to saying words like "open sesame"
Holy crap! I just did that two nights ago.
Basically, the stock Softbank branded ROM on there is locked to a Softbank usim and there's no way around it with the stock ROM.
To get your phone on another carrier you need to:
0. Flashing your phone will remove all the data on your phone so backup all your stuff to your computer. Use the trial of MyBackup.
1. Make yourself a goldcard (Millions of tutorials all over the place so look one up). Make sure you have a backup of all the stuff from your SD and phone.
2. Go here and get yourself the latest World Wide English (WWE) RRU to flash your ROM to the latest stock HTC one. This will "de-brand" your phone. I used
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
3. With USB Debugging enabled on your phone and your goldcard inserted, run that updater in windows. It should complete, rebooting your phone a few times. Your phone will show the htc logo instead of the Softbank one while booting now.
4. Now your phone isn't locked to the Softbank usim but it is still locked to the Softbank carrier. So you need to go buy an unlock code somewhere online (I got one for $13, just google "HTC Desire Unlock Code").
5. Reboot your phone with the sim you want to use inserted. When you slide to unlock your phone, it'll ask you for an unlock code. Put that code you bought in for both codes it requests.
6. Restore your backups
7. Enjoy your desire on whatever carrier you want.
My experience is that it works great on at&t in the US but is limited to Edge speed for internet.
On a side note, I'm using Simeji for my Japanese Input Method
I'd simply use HTC Desire Sim unlock utility..

Use the sim unlock utility...
Hello there,
For the past few days I have been browsing through the XDA pages but was not able to locate the necessary information. May be I was looking under the wrong terms or key words.
Anyways, I have switched from iPhone to HTC Desire HD. I got it second hand and it has no SiM card. Basically, when I insert my uSiM it shows emergency call screen only.
I was browsing through XDA and as far as I got it I first need to activate the phone with the necessary sim card in order to unlock the phone. Is there possibility to `hactivate` the phone with no original sim.
And can you people help me to locate necessary information on the site?
Thanks a ton in advance!
Peace,
Anything on this one?
I wish I could help. I have rooted my SoftBank HTC Desire HD and used loads of roms but I got it from SoftBank (with a SoftBank sim) so I haven't explored unlocking.

Let`s say I can borrow a SIM card from a friend and activate the phone for a while. Could you please direct me @ step-by-step rooting and unlocking guide. Coz, I am bit confused.
As far as I got it, once I activate the phone I need to install Visionary on it via mSDCard. And then I can use certain tools to unlock the phone. Is my thinking correct?
Backup APN:
Get the program APN Backup & Restore - and backup your APN (the SoftBank internet access login and password) to your SD Card. It gets saved as an xml file. (Call it something you wont forget.) Here is the APK of the APN Backup & Restore program to keep on your SD Card.
Then when you do flash a new rom - instantly disable data, run APK Backup & Restore, delete the APNs that come with the rom (even if they say SoftBank) and restore your own SoftBank original one. (Then you can connect and you know you will not be billed incorrectly for using the wrong access details. (This happened to me a few years ago with Windows Mobile and SoftBank)).

Hi , I just get a t-mobile HTC g2 as a gift , and after I factory reset it and I got a problem , I insert a new sim card and it request a sim network code !! And I had sent a message to T-Mobile too but they need me to get the phone owners to contact them to get the code !! If I root the phone and flash a new room , will it Fox my problem ??
Yes it should
Flashing a new rom will fix the probem because the network lock on android devices is firmware based. Some sites on the internet provide these codes, tough.
