[Q] HTC Wildfire won't show the SIM unlock code prompt - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to unlock my HTC Wildfire (BUZZ) A3333, it's on KoolSony HD ROM (based on CM7) by KoolSavas (it's a great ROM thanks KoolSavas) but when I put the foreign SIM card it doesn't show the unlock code prompt? I have already got the code but it won't show the prompt to unlock the phone!
What should I do? I don't want to flash a different ROM like stock and such, it shouldn't be worth the effort!
Please help me out!

It was SIM unlock. Don't worry I had to flash to a Froyo ROM, I used RemPuzzleROM to unlock it, people if you're going to root it then first unlock it on Froyo then go to CM7. CM7 seems to ignore the SIM unlock prompt but if it's on any Froyo ROM (RemPuzzleROM, Stock etc.) then it should unlock successfully but when I entered it, it just did a Hot Restart (went back to bootanimation) but it seemed to unlock :victory:

unlock htc wildfire?

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.

[LOOKING FOR TESTER] Unlock Bootloader without Unlock Token

Hello guys.
When you use htcdev.com to unlock your bootloader, you will have to provide a device identifier to HTC. Then you get an unlock code.
This way HTC knows you have unlocked, or at least tried to unlock your phone.
What I am looking for is someone with a completely unmodified HTC Wildfire S (factory state). So it must be S-ON and never have been unlocked before. Best would be a brand new Wildfire S.
What do I want to test?
Dump the /radio and the /misc partition before and after several events
---- on an unmodified WFS
---- on an umodified WFS having installed the HTCDEV RUU
Then we will try to unlock the phone without getting the unlock token from HTCDEV.
If that works we will again dump some partitions to see what has changed.
As you may probably be new to this with an unlocked phone I will guide you to all the steps needed. There is nothing to worry about your phone. If it does not work we will make your phone as it was before.
I look forward to getting help in this matter. If it works out this will make the unlocking process easier and will keep your warranty.
Please take you about an hour time to step it all through.
Thanks
O_O
Sounds like a plan... Got mine A-off months ago, before HTC dev bl unlock existed.

i guess you couldn't, since this is meant for the wfs not sensation and that sensation and wfs are completely different

In china you unlock your HTC phone don't need to unlock token,just a tools,and click unlock,and then your phone unlocked.very east and fast,no body know that?

There's no need to unlock the bootloader. If you use the Advanced Ace Hack Kit, you get S-OFF, Sim Unlock, SuperCID and root. It is easy to revert and leaves no evidence of the phone being rooted. If you unlock it with HTCDev, you will have the legend *UNLOCKED* in your bootloader and will void warranty.
If you want to root, then try this (this is the only game in town):

Unlock Wildfire?

Wildfire locked to UK Three, running 2.3.4 on Cyanogenmod 7. How the heck do I unlock this? On the bootloader it says 'S-OFF' at the top, doesn't that mean it's unlocked? I've also been through the bootloader unlock process on the HTC website but that didn't work
S-off means you're bootloader is unlocked so you can install a custom recovery then gain root and flash custom roms etc etc not unlock your network, there is no hack to unlock the network on a wildfire, the only way is with a code. Either from your provider if they'll give it to you, or bought from a website/eBay etc......
Ah well thanks for clearing it up for me :good:
There is something I saw on HBOOT called SIMLOCK... Never tried it before tho... You can go there and see wat is says. Cheers.
