thank you for your fast respond
i mean before it is for T-mobile ( contract )
and there is one shop unlocked for me to work on all mobile network
so when i will install the new room it will stay unlocked for all mobile networks
inside USA and outside .
thank you again
The shop just took your money.
It was never SIM locked. NEVER. EVER.
It would always work and will always work on any networks that it's compatible with (3G on 900/1700/2100 MHz bands).
It would never work and will never work on incompatible networks (3G on 850/1900).

Actually the French (SFR supplied) ones are, it's been reported numerous times.

Oh the irony
AFAIK, it has been reported multiple times as "advertised as SIM-locked", and everyone that actually bothered to check found it SIM-unlocked.
And the Nexus in question is T-Mo one, original FW. I happen to have one and know first hand it's not SIM locked and never was. Your point being?
Just because you pissed me off with search thing, read:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739034&page=2
When you're done, please kindly shove your irony back. There is NO SIM LOCKED NEXUS IN EXISTENCE.
Hey guys, im looking at milestone on craigslist but it has a password on it and the seller does not know the password, i really want it because its cheap (90$) and in great shape.
Flashing a new rom over the existing one should solve your problem.

its probably stolen
If its in the u.s it won't matter. In the uk stolen phones are imei locked so even flashing a new rom won't help. In the u.s such services do not exist.
Just go into recovery and wipe

it is..... but i found out that it is a droid because it said verizon on it. anyway now that its back to factory settings i need to activate the phone but im with At&t so is there anyway to get the phone activated and use my At&t network? (the phone was listed as unlocked)
NVM i switched to Verizon
I was wondering if someone could advise me on the ability to use a different sim chip while traveling to another country.
Is it true that while my phone is s–off through the use of the revolutionary tool, that I still won't be able to use a different sim chip with this phone until I unlock it with one of those xtc-clips?
I just want be sure before I think about purchasing one of those clips for +$80.
Thanks

You can also just ask your carrier for the unlock code if it is a branded phone. Otherwise ou could use one of the pay services and purchase an unlock code for less than the cost of the XTC Clip

Just want to be sure I'm understanding you correctly.
I am with Virgin mobile in Ottawa, Ontario. I plan to use a different sim chip now that I am in Peru for a couple of months. Once I put in this Sim it asks me for a PIN to unlock the sim. Who provides me with that pin? Virgin mobile of Ontario or the sim provider in Peru?
Sorry I usually just purchase a cheap prepaid phone whenever I travel abroad but would love to be able to use my htc here in Lima. I appreciate the help.

Thats the thing though how do I know if it is carrier unlocked
All I've done to this phone is get s-off with revolutionary and root it.

if you bought it branded from say virgin, it will most likely be locked so only their sim cards work in it. if you buy a cheap sim card and put it in it will say enter unlock code or some ****. that means its locked. usually carriers (australia anyway) say if you have recharged more then 80 dollars or been with them for like 6 months they can unlock it for free.

First I would check with Virgin Mobile and see if they will give you an unlock code. If not, then you would need to visit one of the pay for sites and purchase an unlock code.
Sup guys,
I´m in the lookout for an HTC One and I found one with a bad ESN. Now, the curious part is that I don´t plan on using it on Sprint. I´ve read that bad ESN are only carrier related and if I were to use the phone on at&t, besides the Sim Unlock I´d need to do, Will it work even with a bad ESN?

It wouldn't work on AT&T regardless of ESN. The radios are different. Sprint phones can only be used on Sprint or other Sprint-using carriers (like Ting). Verizon on Verizon, and even AT&T/T-mobile aren't always fully compatible with eachother (sometimes lose 4G/LTE).
I see, I guess I should forget about Sprint´s One

Well I'm sure there's a way to flash it to say boost or something like that that's if you know how to or someone that can. Heck some small carrier stores even offer flashing services haha

You mean I can unlock it by flashing some custom rom? I´ve done that with many devices previously, but i never knew you could unlock it by flashing a custom rom, am I wrong?

As of right now it is not possible to SIM unlock the Sprint ONE. You can unlock the bootloader, flash to other carriers, and even flash a different PRL and force Roam on Verizon, but you cannot unlock the SIM for GSM use.
Please Update
As of now the GSM of Sprint HTC One can be unlocked using the technique from other threads.... Please tell me if i can now buy a BAD ESN Phone from ebay..... Get the GSM Unlocked using those techniques and use it in India... The radios or freq wont be a problem as India is yet to get a 4G network(Oh God we are so behind).
Need advise before purchasing
It can be unlocked for use on other carriers pretty easily. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45243199. Bad ESN applies only to US carriers

Hey just a FYI the HTC One cannot go on ting
From ting website:
Our program is as follows: Bring your used, inactive Sprint® device to Ting, and activate it with a Ting service plan*.
Newer smartphones like the S4 and the HTC One cannot be brought over. Likewise, BlackBerry and Push-to-Talk (PTT) devices cannot make the move.

You wont have any problems if you put it on something other than sprint (Providing it has a bad ESN on sprint), However the sim unlock guide provided here does not work with the new rom base.
Keep in mind though that sprint will randomly go through and (Scrub) A.K.A clear the bad esn's out of there system, So even though you purchased with a bad esn it could have a clean one after all.
If you have verizon in that area you could always check about flashing the HTC One to PagePlus. Full Guide Here
Now that i broke my HTC OX i will go on ebay and buy HTC O with bad esn

Thanks everyone.

Sadly, no. It's not possible since Sprint is CDMA.
You can unlock the SIM card slot which will let you use SIMs from international carriers. See the thread in the main Sprint HTC One forum.

Go to default.xml, and find sku_id (which is somewhere near the bottom) change the value 10 to 42, and you should be getting H/3G icons again.

Ive been through hell with this, this past week.
Sprint m7
You would think once you root, rom, s-off, cid unlock, sim unlock and bake a cherry pi for it the damn thing would work with ATT compatible sim cards.
NOPE. well, sure, you can SOMETIMES trick it to get onto the network, but it doesnt stick, its not fast, and theres no data.
WHAT A PAIN.
I want to sell this now, but Im not even confident it will work on international GSM networks, even though the sim is unlocked (and cid unlocked!)
i dont think ill ever buy a non-international phone again. Well, my one X+ att flavor worked out ok, but there are so few roms for it... oh well...

You might have to downgrade to an older version of android though, because when I tried it, it didn't work. I believe I was on viperone at the time of testing.

i am fully vested in bringing this model phone back from whatever hell its been through now. stayed up till 2am last night reverting this thing back to stock after it went through all the OTA updates. I am an HTC one m7-wls master now
i wont be home until tomorrow, but i will be trying the fix in that link. i really hope it works.... i made a crystal clear call yesterday before i lost the network, so i KNOW this phone can talk to the towers near me on H2O plan... i just have to get the stupid software right.
OK, so I am done.
Recap (without getting boring)
I did the sim unlock, and also the "fix". FINALLY got the phone to register on H20. And I do have data too, but its GSM only (very slow). The only way I got any of this to work is be fully 4.1.2 stock.
It is set to WCDMA preferred.
also, even though I did the "fix" it still loses the network after a reboot.
I am so done with this phone. I am updating it fully and throwing it on ebay. F this thing! No more sprint phones for me, thank you.
