So I traided my sensation for the flyer, couldn't be happier (except the fact it has HC on it already but I am coping with that)
Anyway, the device is S-on and uprooted and operator locked.
How do I remove the operator lock (on my own, without paying)

Operator
Firstly, whose your operator? Geneally, the Flyer 3G is not sold with operator lock.
T-Mobile, when I insert a vodafone sim card it asks for a network pin..
Yeah, there is no T-Mobile logo on it or on the startup screen, odd..

Are you S-on or S-off ? Gingerbread or Honeycomb radio/hboot/. Is your flyer WWE/Brightstar/US
If you can post a screenshot of your SIM pin prompt, it would help.
Also, it maybe that's your Vodafone SIM thats locked. Try with another SIM if possible. Go into HBOOT(volume down + power button when Flyer is off) and check your sim lock status using your Vodafone sim and the T-Mobile sim.
Report back and I'll see if I can help.

Ok, I got your problem. HTC is infact selling the T-Mobile version of the flyer with operator lock and a T-mobile logo on the top right corner if I'm correct.
The only way till now is to buy a unlock code from the websites like gsm mobility or htcunlockcode.com , who provide you with unlock codes for as low as $12 based on your IMEI.
Some guys at the DHD / Desire S forums made an unlock tool which removed operator lock, if someone could port that, it would help.
The main problem now is that very few Flyer owners/developers have the operator locked T-Mobile flyer. I could give porting a try, but wouldn't be able to test it.

I thought the carriers had to release the lock code to you if you asked for it. Call them and ask for either the SIM lock or the MSL key. As long as you don't try to dodge the ETF, they don't erally have a legit reason to deny you that information.
Barring that, I think you can get around this once you are rooted.

Well, I can see you have the same Hboot version as I have on my Flyer. From that I can say that at the moment it seems not possible to get your device S-OFF'ed. But you can get it unlocked at htcdev.com and from that point flash a costum rom (from XDA) and maybe that network thingy will disappear...
My thoughts on your request.
To be simple - it's not possible to remove sim pin or operator lock just by rooting. You need radio s-off for that.

are you still willing to do this? i assume youre refering to gfree? i have a t mobile fller,am comfortable with adb/fastboot and would be happy to test. if we can find an exploitable radio,might it give radio s-off as well? im mainly interested in subsidy unlock,superCID(althoug im not sure the flyer is subsidy locked in the first place),but radio s-off would be a sweet bonus!

Hi
Just checking if anyone has been shipped/got an S-OFF Flyer?
I've not put this in the Dev section until i find out if there is any around.
Please do not reply to this unless you have a an S-OFF flyer, or a HTC flyer from another region apart from EU or North America.
I really don't want a thread full of " mine from Best Buy Springfield it hasn't got S-OFF, what S_OFF?", if you don't know how to check if its S-OFF please don't reply as what i'm going to ask you to do will be like sticking spoons in my eyes!
Cheers

Bought one in Malaysia - looks like there's a specific South East Asian version.
Language wise it has English Malaysia/English Singapore - and has Vietnamese & Thai language options too.
Anyway - unfortunately it's S-ON
S-OFF is equivalent to a dev-kit where you can load any ROM.
Retail phones are S-ON as the embedded ROM has been officially tested for QC.
Mine is s-off. Just bought it today through eBay in France. I havent started exploring the root-ing options right now but happy to have it s-off.

Normally HC doesn't (shouldn't) have any issue with GSM, but in our Flyer case GSM is not natively supported neither in GB nor HC.
But I wonder this: If it could be made working on GB, why not the same on HC, considering the fact that most GB programs runs ok under HC?
Essentially the platform itself supports phone call I believe, but I read somewhere that the phone.apk is there but no skin (or wrong skin) for the phone interface.
If you watch this video, someone managed to use honeycomb Flyer to make GSM phone call, but he did not elaborate where he gets the phone.apk with proper skin from.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6_bZUwbzjQ
thats because HC itself doesnt support phone function...
and for that video, i remember if you change the build.prop, the phone will pop up but its still unusable since the video didnt show the speaker and mic working...

It can?
I only now that VOIP calls are possible but the same apply for the Flyer.
And: You cannot make gsm calls on honeycomb
Can I use this phone on bell network. I have rooted and have s-off. Am I missing some step? I get network locked when I put the bell sim in. And it asks for a pin. Do I have to use a custom rom?

If you have a spare £150ish, you could just buy a SETool box & card with LGTool activation.

Tempting, that's a lot of money tho.
There isn't much need for s-off, id only use it to change the splash screen and flash kernels in recovery
Although, if it was that easy then someone should start an s-off service I'd pay $50 to s-off my phone

Sony unlockers can use SETool over a network using teamviewer to unlock the bootloader, on Sony devices. but we tried to S-Off a One X and a sensation XL, The HOX was connected to the PC with the SETool box and that worked fine, but my SXL which was connected via a network got all sorts of errors while trying to execute the exploit. Seems you cant S-off HTC devices over networks with SETool.
