hi
I am interested in your sim unlock for htc touch diamond. my htc touch diamond is locked on orange network.
how does it work? how can you guarantee that it will work for it?
thanks
does it really work? how is the battery drain?
They do work. Not sure if they do on the Diamond however. Im sure battery drain is minimal.

Hello everyone,
I'm thinking to buy an HTC Diamond over eBay, and have question about SM unlocking in my mind:
- Do I need to have a SIM card, which the device currently locked in, to unlock it or is it possible to execute the unlocking software without a SIM card installed?
They usually sell phones re-branded and locked to a specific network, and not every network operator works in my country. For example, if I buy a phone locked to Orange, it will be impossible for me to unlock it, if I need to run the unlocking software while an Orange SIM is inserted.
Thanks in advance.
Well I'm not completely sure that you need the sim to unlock it, but what I am sure about is that if you buy the HTC Diamond (not the T-mobile version, or whatever other carrier offers it) it will come unlocked. HTC simply makes the phones and if you buy one of their versions it will be unlocked as a standard.
Hopefully I helped answered your question instead of wasting time for both of us
every phone i have had to have unlocked can be done without any sim card in it
Thanks for your replies and sorry for a late response.
I have already bought my phone and waiting for its arrival. It is an Orange branded device, which is unlocked with a software obtained from unlock-htc.com, according to the seller. So, my problem with the SIM unlock seems solved
I think the bigger question is, once you get it unlock can it be used with AT&T or T-mobile 3G frequency.

We don't have those network operators here in Turkey. In fact, we don't have any 3G network operator at all
If we think that people are discussing about 4G technologies like LTE in north America and Europe, we can easily say that cellular network providers are evolving very slow in Turkey I don't think I will have problems with our current old school GSM providers with a SIM unlocked device.
I have to wait and see of course, I will let you know the results.
I bought a brand new looking htc diamond today and i think i screwed up big time. I am with T-mobile and when i got home i discovered gthat my diamond does not have place for a sim card. It says sprint on top of it, does that mean its not a comatible phone to T-mobile or is there a some sort of workaround? Would i be able to use it somehow on metropcs? Any help would be appreciated, hate tho think i just wasted the money on the phone that i will not abe able to use((
Not familiar with T-Mobile put it does sound like you purchase a CDMA Device which doesn't use the GSM (sim card) technology. There is no way around this other then reselling it and picking up the right device.
Could you post a photograph or a link to the brand of the phone? Is it HTC? Is a Diamond? Sure? It sounds a bit strange...
I never haven't seen a CDMA device so...
Where did you buy it from?
How hard is this?
He bought the Sprint CDMA HTC Diamond. It won't work on T-Mobile, so just resell it and purchase a GSM one.
yes your phone is not gsm
send it back or sell it on
Hi,
I purchased T-mobile G1 and HTC Touch Pro (Sprint) from ebay. Both are locked. For me to use outside USA with other carrier whats my next step to unlock it ?
I do not have T-mobile service nor Sprint. If I find a friend/colleague who has T-mobile/Sprint service can he use his Sim card to unlock the phone ? do you need Sim Card to unlock the phone ?
is there article explaining it like whats exactly involved in providing information to carrier\service provider and is there any embarrassment questions which one needs to prepare for.
Regards,
Miten.
Hi everyone,
I just bought a T-Mobile unlocked HTC HD7 on ebay to switch from my HTC Touch on Bell Canada's network. The thing is: it can't seem to find the network and when I call Bell, they told me that they can't see the phone trying to connect to their servers.
I have a brand new SIM card, activated in their store. The phone works well, I can connect to the Wifi and browse the web.
Any info? Thanks in advance.
Hey, well sorry to tell you but the tmobile HD7 isn't compatible with the Bell network..youd need a Bell, at&t, or Telstra HD7. This thread explains it...

It sucks mate but best option would be to throw it back on eBay and then buy a Bell one
Thanks a lot, I just tough every phones were the same.
I should have read a little more before buying it!
Not a problem, hope you can get yourself a Bell one..its a great phone and a refreshing OS to use.
