I received an unlock code, and instructions from mobile I have tried putting in a active at&t SIM in my htc hd7 and it keeps saying invalid SIM or no SIM installed. I am trying to unlock this thing before going on vacation. Any help?
You should contact the person who gave you that code and ask another one. Did you buy it from a website?

I am running the 'stock' HoneyComb from Dell on the 4G US version (Not wifi version). Recently it has been asking me for the SIM unlock code upon waking the device. Normally I can just exit out of it but sometimes I have to reboot the device. Any idea what is causing this? Is my SIM card going bad? Is it a rogue application?
Thanks,
I emailed [email protected] to see if they had any suggestions. I wonder though since I have a valid/active contract with my carrier if it is a good dea to unlock it?
It shouldnt be a problem to have it unlocked.

send an email to dell : [email protected] with your imei number and say you are going out of the country for some months and need to get the unlock code. It only took a couple of hrs to get mine straight from dell.
Since my device is under contract with my carrier, Dell told me to get it from them. I called them (my carrier) and they are supposed to be sending it to me via email, I was really just wanting to know why my device is suddenly requesting it...?
Is it because of the Dell OS that was not issued by T-Mobile?
Received the unlock code from t-mobile and it unlocked fine. I would still like to know why it was requesting it though...?
Purchased a HTC One that appears locked to O2 carrier (unbeknownst to me when I purchased on Ebay). When I inserted my AT&T sim card, I got a message asking me for the SIM unlock code. (not AT&T PUK code). Anyone have any idea how to remedy this situation. Any advice appreciated.

Is it locked to English O2? You can buy these unlock codes online, or wait 3 months and then get the carrier to unlock.
If I were you I would contact ebay and return it and wait for the AT&T model to be released. Someone here may know how to unlock it though, I have no clue.

Are you in the UK? If so buy a Pay as you Go O2 sim card, load it with £15, then fill in the unlock form on the O2 site and it will be unlocked within 3 days.
If you are in the US, then there is nothing much you could do, there might be unofficial ways to unlock the phone but I am not aware of them. Since you purchased from eBay, your best bet would be to return it as wrongly described.
Try one of these solutions:
1) If you have a look at this forum thread, it may help you with your problem
2) Also try this company mobileunlocks if they cannot supply the unlock code they will refund you.
3) Search ebay you will find sellers selling unlock codes on there too
Hello there.
I bought a Motorola Atrix HD with the purpose of using it in Tmobile with Tzones. The thing is that ive been trying to buy the unlock code and no luck so far. Its been 10 unlock services sellers and every one of them tell me that my Imei have been rejected or not working ? they refund the money and thats it, nobody tell me nothing.....
Anything of this had happen to anyone here ?
That mean is another scrap phone i bought ?
thx
Sorry didn't have this issue. The unlock code took a bit longer to get on this phone than any other, but they sent it to me within 7 days.
I used unlockunit
Sim Network Unlock
My Atrix HD doesn't seem to want to read my sim card. It SHOULD ask me to input a sim network unlock code, but it doesn't. Is there a way to force that prompt? I ask this as I wait for a unlock code from an unlocker site.

the only way i know is turning off your phone, insert the other provider sim (it needs to be already activated/working) then turn it on and you will see the prompt
Sometimes phones sold are stolen and reported then there imei numbers are bad or frozen the original owner needs to reclaim it if that's the case in order for the imei to be unlocked

You don't need to pay. If you are lff-contract, then you can call AT&T and they will give you an unlock code, free of charge. I have done it on multiple phones.

If you can't sim unlock using a code, the you can try to s-off and use the sieempi method

Follow the below link

Your device is unlocked!!!
That will unlock the bootloader but I don't think it sim unlocks it also? My phone came sim unlocked but with past phones unlocking the bootloader never sim unlocked my phones. After unlocking the bootloader google these two words "sieempi wonderhowto" and the first hit should be a guide to show you how to sim unlock. Sorry I can't post links as this is my first post ever.
If that still fails to sim unlock your phone all isn't lost yet. To use that method you have to S-Off your phone and if your phone is S-Off than your other option would be to run a T-Mobile RUU. You would be stuck having to run a T Mobile rom but at least you could use your phone.
I would also contact HTC because it sounds very odd they would send you a AT&T phone if you sent them a T Mobile phone to be fixed. Maybe they sent you the wrong phone?
A new thread might show up in a few days from a AT&T customer saying HTC repaired their phone but sent them back a T Mobile instead
I understand this phone comes preinstalled with an unlocking software to sim unlock on all networks. I bought this phone on craigslist checked the imei and its good but my concern is how do i put an unlock code if is to use the app ,i want to use the code please help..
Im in the exact situation.
Need to sim unlock my htc desire 626s
well i had success unlocking my phone with this website w.unlocklocks.com/ though i ended up paying 34.99 for them to unlock it ,now its unlocked
Well if you connect it with Metro PCS they can give you an unlock code right away,since you didn't buy the phone from a store.

The HTC Desire 626s (like the other new models from T-Mobile/MetroPCS) is locked by the "Unlock Device" app that connects to the T-Mobile/MetroPCS server and asks for unlock.
This phone cannot be unlocked neither with code or by playing with the files in the System.
The only way to Unlock it is by buying a service, i bought one for MetroPCS for about 25 bucks in ebay.
I also have unlocked 2 Desire 626s from Boost Mobile with this service: http://www.ebay.com/itm/252348223935?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
The same seller has another listing for Virgin Mobile that I have used before to GSM unlock my 626s. The guy gave me a discount just when I asked for it and everything was pretty easy!
Maybe you should ask him to see if he can unlock yours
The unlock app worked for me. All it did was check with the carrier or something and it was approved. The phone restarted and a notification said the phone's unlocked. The app also uninstalled
