HTC Desire X sim-unlock done
I have successfully sim-unlocked my Desire X with a unlock code from unlock-now.com.
It took a few days until i got the unlock code but it worked.
Well thats great!
But i'm kinda noob here, so could you please explain, what does the sim-unlocking process do?

There's explanations on unlock-now.com.
Mosh don simply put whr to find it
Marten ,A handset can be unlocked by entering a code provided by the network operator. Alternative mechanisms include software running on the handset or a computer attached to the handset, hardware devices that connect to the handset or over-the-air by the carrier. Usually the unlock process is permanent. The code required to remove all locks from a phone is referred to as the master code, network code key, or multilock code. There can also be multiple levels of locks placed on the phone by networks, which block the use of other networks SIM cards. These are usually referred to as "Network" (NCK) or "Service Provider" (SPCK) locks and can be removed using the corresponding unlock codes, which are unique to each phone depending on the its IMEI.
Typically, a locked handset will display a message if a restricted SIM is used, requesting the unlock code handsets may display different messages such as "Enter special code" or "Enter unlocking code" or in some cases the handset will simply display a message stating that it is locked. Once a valid code is entered, the handset will display "Network unlocked".
The unlock code is verified by the handset and is generated by the network provider, typically by an algorithm such as a one way hash or trapdoor function. The algorithms used in many handsets are based on the IMEI number and the MCC code and have been reverse-engineered, stolen or leaked. Most handsets can be unlocked using software that generates an unlock code from an IMEI number and country and operator details using the algorithm specific to the handset. Other manufacturers have taken a more cautious approach, and embed a random number in the handset's firmware that is only retained by the network on whose behalf the lock was applied. These handsets can still be unlocked, but need to be connected to special unlocking hardware that will rewrite the part of its firmware where the lock status is kept, and often even recover a phone that is bricked or completely damaged in the software sense. However, other handsets, notably the high-end PDAs and smart-phones, can be unlocked by the use of software that can read the unlock code directly from the firmware. In case of Android handsets, the bootloader of the device can be unlocked to flash a new CID number(11111111, which indicates an unlocked device) and hence the SIM Lock is effectively removed.
Most handsets have security measures built into their firmware that protects them from repeated attempts to guess the unlock code. After entering more than a certain number of incorrect codes the phone becomes hard-locked and unlocking hardware must to be used in order to unlock them.

Hello. How can I flash the CID number (11111111) on Desire X? Surfing the web I found tutorials for ONE S and ONE X, are they usable for Desire X?
Still nothing new about unlocking HTC desire X sim?
I already tried couple unlock codes and i am just a step before locking my network permanently, so please if someone know proven service which unlock Desire X send me a note or post here. Of course i dont have problems to pay, but only if you have positive experience and results.

You still can't, because we didn't manage to S-OFF the Desire X. S-OFF means that your phone doesn't have protection, so with having S-OFF you can flash new CIDs.

thats not exactly true, even with s-off you cant change youre cid these days, you need an engineering hboot for that (or a clean s58 diag file and a whitecard)

Did you find any solution to unlock your phone?
Bump
Bumping this thread since hasoon2000 who apparently has a solution to this, doesn't reply back when PM'ing.. :/ If someone knows a service that charges for SIM-unlocking which doesn't require your device to be than a month old, feel free to send a PM.
Still nothing?
did any of you guys tried sim-unlock net to unlock the phone, or if you know where can i unlock it.
hey guys i have a problem and wondering if you have the same, when i try a different sim on the phone(other curier) the phone freezes, the touch screen doesn't work, nothing. Coult this be because of the custom rom?(i didn;t try this before in stalling a custom rom on the device).Srry for my bad english. Have a nice day!

Hello everyone,
So far I have tried the following to get an unlock code. But no luck so far. They are saying it's not available yet. I am new to android and I got the phone from Telus last week. I need help!

ebay item 221163388906
Phone: HTC ONE X+
Carrier: TELUS
Country: CANADA
Also, please point me to another option like rooting my phone or something? or any other unlock sites.
Thanks
Whats up with the official site ?
htcdev ?
I have been reading this forum all afternoon and I haven't found a guide to root and unlock my telus HTC ONE X+. Is there a guide by hanson2000? Also there seems to be an issue with battery % showing 66%. Is that right? Some direction will be really helpful.

Last I had heard you could not unlock this phone. There is a rumor that hanson2000 can do it but for a price. The battery showing 66% is a known issue in recover.
*edit* I assume you are talking about carrier unlock and not the bootloader as it sounds like you have TWRP installed already.
The Telus HOX+ can be rooted and the bootloader can be unlocked, this will allow you to flash a custom recovery and rom. The Telus and ATT versions are identical with minor cosmetic differences so most, if not all things for ATT should work for the Telus version. If you want to unlock the bootloader to root and flash custom roms use hansons toolkit to unlock your bootloader then flash the ATT version of TWRP (all others will muck your phone up). The 66% issue your talking about is that the TWRP recovery always shows 66% battery left so just be aware of your battery life when your using it as i think it is also connected to an issue with it not being able to charge or something, just don't be dumb and try to flash stuff with 15% battery...
As far as SIM unlocks go for Telus, I've read that it can be done. Your best bet for this would be searching through the forums for someone who has done it or contacting hanson as he can possibly find you and unlock code.
I flashed the intl version on my phone and it screwed it up. (silly Americans Canada isn't part of America lol)
I ended up flashing a custom rom after fixing my problems. I didn't want custom but I'm stuck with it now as there are no ruus for us. Anyways I'm using elegancia on Telus with no problems.

Thanks to unlock.canadagsm.ca for providing me unlock code and it worked.
Good news for you. Mine on AT&T can still not currently be sim unlocked. Tried mobilunlocked.co.uk and cellunlocker.net and neither could do it. Sent a pm to hansoon and got no reply so either he can't do it or just isn't interested. Either way, looks like I'm stuck for the time being -_-

Well, I'm not an AT&T customer so that won't work for me. I did, however, have the nice fellow I bought it from contact AT&T and, according to him, they told him they wouldn't give him the code until his contract expired 0_o. Not sure if that's true or if he was pulling my leg, but either way, I'm not able to get the code from them as a non-customer.

I signed into my at&t account, went to my phone/device, manage my phone/device and the option for unblocking sim card is there. gives me a 8 digit PUK code.
I've been a (very good) customer for years. I do international travel a few times a year.
I've bought around 120$ worth of unlocking codes, none was able to do it except unlock canada gsm. I highly recommand them. It took 3days, but it came in.

Thank you. Apparently I am eligible to. I recommend every at&t customer check this. Assuming you already have another carriers SIM (I do not just considering selling the phone).
Much thanks! Glad I happened to see this today. I was able to get the PUK code for my HTC One X+ too.
I'm on a family plan w/ 3 people including myself and we've been with AT&T for a long time.
Wasn't really expecting to find it, since I've never travelled out of the country and we've never requested an unlock code before, but, sure enough, it was there.
So thanks for this info! My sister is living in London so this will come in very handy when I go to visit her.
I can't actually unlock the phone without putting a non-ATT Sim card in there can I?
I copied the info down regardless, in case they change their mind or something.

Yes...you will need another sim to use the code.
I realize this is extremely unlikely, but could an AT&T customer enter the IMEI number from a Telus version of the phone, in the AT&T unlock page and get an unlock code? Or is it only for the specific handset a specific customer bought through AT&T?
I just thought perhaps the system accesses a data base and can lookup the unlock code for any IMEI number.
Where do you recommend buy the carrier unlock code for my new AT&T htc one x plus ?
I would like to try first with the original AT&T rom with my carrier, and then try another rom
Is there any way that i can unlock this phone to use with Telcel in mexico without buying with someone the carrier unlock code ?

I do not know in which country you are now but in the U.S. for a few days is illegal without ahutorizacion unlock operator. If you're not in the U.S. you can use cellunlock.net, I use last month from Argentina and in three hours they sent me the unlock code.
The wording on the new law is strange. It has been interpreted that the phone can still be unlocked if purchased prior to the law going into effect.
Some time ago about a year or two you are able to call up at&t and tell them that you would like to use the phone in Mexico and they would be able to give you an unlock code. I don't know if that is still okay but I would phone them up and tell them that you would like to use the phone in Mexico. I don't know if that method still works.

1. No, since its now illegal to unlock phones here in the U.S without carrier permission there won't be free unlocks anymore I assume
2. Buy it and find out

lock code is available, but I am wondering if att can tell I ulocked when I get back from my trip to mexico?
suppose any ramifications now that there is this new 'law'?
can they tell? do they care as long as I pay my bill/keep my contract?
Can they tell and will they report you seem to be the questions on everyone's mind right now. My guess is that if they tried to, then yes, they could probably tell. Chances are high, however, that unless there will be some direct ramifications for them, then they won't care. But of course no one knows for sure at this point.
Hello.
I have registered to this forum to try to find a solution for my problem. I've received HTC One X+ as a gift, but it's sim locked to AT&T. I'm not US resident so I can't use them as a carrier. Yesterday I've called them and they told me that they don't have a code for that particular device. I'm asking for help not, because I haven't found ways. I'm asking for help because since AT&T says that they don't have a code, will the guys from sites that I'll pay to have a code. And does anyone knows free working method for sim unlocking?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks very much for the help. Today I purchased a code, but when I re-inserted the sim card, it didn't ask for it. I can use the phone as a normal device, but I still have AT&T branding (not sure if the code would've helped with that) and also unused code... This is really strange to me, since last week it asked for an unlocking code and now it isn't. I'm talking about same sim card... Is there a way to enter the code that I got or it's useless now?
If your att phone is already working on t mobile then your code worked and your phone is SIM unlocked

Again, thanks for the help. And one more question (sorry about it, I am very new in this). Is there a way to "debrand"it and get clean HTC android with Sense skin? I know many of you don't like it, but at the moment I like it very much, even though I haven't tried anything else
What do you mean debrand it? It already come with HTC sense, no need to install anything.
Well, I don't know how big is Android 4.1.1, but when I got it out of the box it was with 11GB taken memory. There is some bloatware from AT&T and also an AT&T splash screen (with which I can live) Also (I don't have idea if this is something) if there is update for HOX+ from 4.1.1 at the moment I'm connected to AT&T servers and I have to wait for them to release it. I'm not US citizen (don't know if it matters) but I wish if there is a way to find some other way to get official android update for my device.

Root and uninstall all the bloatware. I would go install a better Rom if I were you. AT&T type things are completely removed then. May I suggest Blackout Mongoose.
Today i've recieved a T-Mobile HTC One phone bought from US. I live in israel./
Got few questions, any answer be greatly appreciated.
1. I've made inquiry to T-Mobile, and they told me once i give them info about the phone they'll unlock it for me either in 48 hours or more if IMEI isn't in their databse yet. I've yet to give them that info because i fear the phone might be stolen. I've recieved it from my brother and i et the impression it was bought from the company itself but ..his unavailable to inquire for few days.
Any way to confirm legality of the phone? All i can see is T-Mobile app installed on HTC, and two messeges, one saying "Welcome ...etc...etc.." and other that the sim has been activiated.
2. If i do give them IMEI can they block me permamently and thus no matter where i et the code the HTC is blocked?
3. Any proven third-party sellers who could unlock me the phone?
I'd rather go for legal way if possible, and i know the phone costed about 700dollar so i assume its real price, but you guys let me know what's the best way to approach it.
If you don't mind spending just $3.50, use the link I'm posting below. I used it last night on my T-Mobile HTC One and got an unlock code in ten minutes.
