Hi I'm considering purchasing the Nexus One and selling my HTC HD2 T-Mo edition for one. I would like to know, can I unlock a T-Mobile version to work with AT&T 3G?
I'm hoping to be able to use 3G on both carriers, is this possible?
No, not possible.

The Nexus One is unlocked by default but because of hardware limits you can't use 3g on AT&T with a t-mo version and viseversa.
Cliffnotes - NO
search is your friend. and this is also as obvious as balls

Yes. The bands for Telus, Rogers and Bell are all the same. Their systems are a bit different but the cellular bands are all the same.

Hi,
I am thinking of buying an htc one sprint version from ebay. It says it needs to be activated on sprint. Can we unlock it without activating it on sprint?

Just a warning in advance, you are in the wrong forum. There is a Sprint htc one forum, where you will get better help.
Since these are independent devices, you can try to do it the hard way, but to do it legitimately, I think you need to be on contract.

Seems like most have the best luck using T-Mobile SIM

If you used the search function you'd find that there are at least two threads dedicated to SIM unlock.

Its the same principal. And also, the title of your thread is asking for a CDMA unlock.
(Sprint) is in the title. Sprint is CDMA, Cricket is the only GSM. Since you were asking for Sprint, everyone naturally assumes you are wanting CDMA, since Sprint and GSM don't make sense, and that you probably know more about he name of your provider, than you know about the difference between CDMA and GSM.
Thread cleaned. Everyone play nice and don't call each other names.
Have a nice day,

I wrote sprint in the title , because i do have SPRINT HTC Desire 510 and i want to use it on GSM carriers . i don't care anything about cdma in this case . that's all

Because you have to CDMA unlock to use on GSM. Youll also need a new radio.

Your question was answered correctly. YOU didn't understand THEM.
To clarify, there is NO TRUE GSM UNLOCK FOR CDMA (ie Sprint/Boost/Virgin) DEVICES. The only way to get an unlock code from your carrier (Sprint) is to have an account in good standing with this device for 1 year. THAT is all.
Mods, could we get a closure on this thread now please?
Actually dragonhart6505 the poster is correct - the HTC Desire 510 is in fact GSM capable as well as CDMA - HOWEVER it is CDMA locked to Sprint and it seems that some of the unlocking software to allow to recognize and ask for an unlock code is not on the devise so it remains as a locked to Sprint device even though it does in fact have the GSM radio ability if you can figure out how to unlock it. I believe that is what jkjambo is asking

Actually @DragonHeart6505 is right. I'm using a CDMA device and I've been in good standing with an account open for well over 4 years and I'm also in the Military and that means when I ask for a device to be sim unlocked or carrier unlocked whatever you want to call it I've always got them unlocked right away now with the CDMA version of the HTC Desire 510 I'm telling you it's IMPOSSIBLE to unlock I've sat on the phone for hours with tier3 customer service and it cannot be done but if you want to keep trying good luck I warned you.
Don't try it
I tried to search very hard on this.
basically, HTC has signed bootloader. you needed to break that first.. which you can;t do without sophisticated tools.
If you even try that.. you will endup in bricking your device.
I managed to brick and get it again working with lot of hours spent on same device but radios are near to impossible to update if you really don;t know how to do that.. I managed to recover to get CDMA working not GSM.. unless you are developer and ready to throw this device for this attempt.. you are welcome to check the development thread for this device and I am sure you will find the way to enable GSM frequency bands for this device.
** Don't Try it if you are not equipped with required knowledge.
