Someone should update the opening post with the latest info
The Chevron certificate is now expired, was valid for 1 year, until 25 Nov 2011.
To unlock with Chevron now:
- disconnect the PC from internet
- set the date prior to 25 November 2011 (bun no more than 1 year back: say 1 Oct 2011)
- set the same date on the phone as on PC
- reconnect PC to internet
- connect the phone, run chevron and unlock
Btw, I just tested this on my 1.3 Focus since I installed a Transcend 32gb Class 4 card (it works).

but i'm not sure chevron will give you an operator's unlock...
if i don't miss any point, the only way to do that is flashing an unbranded rom...
Tell me more firmware settings -> about ->more info
sim unlock
Hi,
You don't say where your from, or who your service provider is ?
Sim unlock is different to developer unlocking.
For me, i rang my provider (O2 UK), told them i wanted to use my phone abroad with a foreign sim card as this was cheaper than roaming charges, and they sent me the code the next day, free of charge
Try it, you might be surprised.
Good luck

Hi all !
Got my P3600. ROM Version is german ROM 1.16.407.2.
Very nice device !!
Problems until now:
1. Transcend MiniSD 80x not recognized a few times - after 2 days it seems to be ok no more faults with MiniSD Card.
2. Cannot answer GSM calls in mixed GSM/UMTS network - answering 3G calls works fine everytime, answering GSM calls in the same provider network (other location) does not work - software hangs with opened caller bubble.
Hope there will be some ROM Upgrade soon.
Greets,
Gerhard
Somebody claims a similar problem as your one (see Expansys HTC forum). I copy the post here below, since it may be deletet because Expansys is a shop. However, original post can still be seen here:http://www.expansys.it/ft.aspx?i=139981&thread=20

'htc p3600 "unknown sim status" problem'
I just received p3600 from Expansys Greece.
All the functions of the phone are working fine but when I try to use the phone function I constantly get the following messages "unknown sim status" and / or "no signal" and then my phone is freezing. I did try several times to soft as well as hard reset the phone but the problem was not resolved.
I also checked several other sim cards (operating with other phones) with the p3600 and still had the same problem.
I realy don''t know what to do next.
Can the problem be resolved or should I return the product?

I just found out that the phone is working perfect with a vodaphone sim card but it still wont work with my TIM card.
So now I have two choises. 1. I cancel my TIM account and I get a new vodaphone sim card (but I realy don’t like the idea since I have my tel. number unchanged for the past 12 years) or 2. I keep looking why this is happening.
At least I know that there is no damage to the phone.
Let me know about any suggested solutions and why is this happening.
-----------------
your third option is:
there is TIM branded AKU 3.3 Trinity ROM seen on local ftp.
My guess is that TIM branded rom would be compatible to TIM SIM card. There is some simple logic to it

Call Tmobile
hi isn't there a tool for unlocked the phone, just like for the hermes???. I don't have a tmobile sim card, and currently i am out of the usa, and i think everybody will like to give a donation to a developer, instead of given 30-40 dollars to an unlocking cellphones company, so i can not bealive that no one can unlock this phone.
regards
there isn't such a tool. I have no idea how the hermes forum could come up with such an app. The sim lock, however, is by the phone. Borrow a sim card or go get an el cheapo prepaid
contact jockyw2001 and he'll provide you a fast solution
If you want to unlock your phone I suggest you email T-Mobile and they walk you through getting one and it's free. I just unlocked mine today. All I did was log onto my T-Mobile account and searched unlock Sim. It'll tell you to email them with some info and they'll send you an unlock code. I told 'em I was going out of the country and the next day I had a code. I can now use my At&t sim card in my Wing.
My locked G1 came today and although I though I'd previously seen a free unlocking solution much like the other HTC devices, I can seem to find it!
I'd be more than grateful if someone could point me in the direction of any free service.
Otherwise, I don't mind paying to unlock, (Devs need to eat too right?) but I'm actually leaving to travel Europe in 4 hours and was playing to use the unlocked G1 abroad.
Is there anyone here, or can anyone recommend a UK based, (I'm presuming they'd be the quickest due to time zone differences) unlocking service that would be able to get an unlock code to me before 5PM, GMT today?
Thanks for all your help XDAF!
The only free way is if tmobile will give it to you but that takes awhile. I use www.unlock-tmobileg1.com which says it only takes 2 hours but sometimes may take longer....upto 4 hours. Some people on here say ebay is the quickest so you could try there just make sure the seller has a goood feedback for unlock codes. If you use the site I reccomended and it doesn't come before you leave then you could always check your email from a pc when you get where your going, it will definetly be there by then. Also make sure you have the APN settings for whatever carrier you will be using.
There aren't any free unlocks for the G1, only the services which have access to a database of codes (one for each phone). Although they aren't obliged and probably won't it might be worth trying to call T-mobile if you are a good customer. Otherwise get in your order as quick as possible.
^^^Yep, said it all.

I've been on www.unlock-tmobileg1.com and I think it's a US website, so presuming they work 9-5 they're going to be unlikely to be able get it to me on time.
We're starting off in a very 'rural' place, so checking via a computer/internet cafe won't be an option until a few weeks in.
Or is the www.unlock-tmobileg1.com an automated system?
Order right now I would say because I just placed a order for my gf's G1 about 27 mins ago and I just got the code after I replied to your post the first time.
Also it is based in us and france. Although I am 99% sure it is a automated system anyway.

SIM Card accepted but Impossible to configure
Hi Every one
I have a T Mobile HTC Dream I'm planning to unlock it but I want to make sure it is the solution to my problem. My SIM Card is accepted and and I can see the GPRS Indicator. But I can't go through th configuration process. Always having a message "you don't have a network connexion ..."
Thank in advance for you help.

Can we get some info on your phone. Are you with T-Mobile.
Thanks for your response. I Have a HTC Dream T-Mobile G1.
I'm actually outside the US with a SIM Card from Orange Cote d'Ivoire in the handset.
If it is locked you shouldnt even get past the screen where it asks for the unlock code. You might just need to find the APN settings for Orange Cote d'Ivoire. Try the Big APN Thread here or google, to enter then settings just hit the menu button and a APN Settings button should pop up and you can go from there.
I'm not sure it's unlocked. I entered the APN Fron Orange Cote d'Ivoire and I can see the "E" indicating that I'm connected too the Edge network. But when I enter my Google account info, I get an error message "Can't establish a reliable data connection to server. this could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, Call Customer Care". Do you thing unloking the handset will solve the problem?
Ok this is odd! I received my hd7 yesterday and immediately set about getting it unlocked once i had done the basic set up. Because of what i have read so far on numereous forums i automatically assumed the phone ould be locked and went to one of the two sites suggested here to purchase my code. Within 5 mins i had my unlock code for the sum of £19 something.
So i then read through the email and go to follow the instructions. The first instruction states that i should put in a SIM card from a different network. So i put in the t-mobile SIM i intend to use with the HD7 and would you believe it ITS UNLOCKED?! The phone tile shows T-Mobile as the network and i check and see if i can make and receive calls...all work fine?
Now my question is: was my hd7 unlocked when i purchased it? (bought online from o2 uk payg) or did the guys fromm the unlock site do some sort of jiggery-pokery that unlocked my phone OTA via my IMEI number?
Didnt O2 and Tmobile recent join forces to some extenet. I think they share the same network now so that may be why.
I bought a PAYG one yesterday and my vodafone simcard didnt work so bought the unlock code.

It can't be unlocked OTA, so it must have been shipped unlocked.
That was too good to be true…after appearing to be unlocked my HD7 has
now decided to lock itself. It is giving me this message:
"This sim card can only be used on specific networks. Contact your customer service centre for the unlock code"
I've attempted 3 different PINS (1210, 0000 and 0000 again) with my T-Mobile SIM card in incorrectly so i guess i now need to get a PUK code. The question is who do i go to get this from T-Mobile (my current netwoork) or O2.

Errmm, That unlock code it's asking you for is not the SIM PIN, it's the unlock code you paid for from the site, I hope you did not guess it incorrect too many times otherwise you can lockout the phone completely.
OH GOD! you were right...that message was basically asking for the unlock code i paid for. Once i punched the code in it accepted it and i appear to be up and running again.
still find it odd that the phone acted like it was unlocked for a brief period before i had unlocked it!
thank you!
Glad it worked, good job you have not tried to guess the code 10 times otherwise you would never have got it unlocked.
Your right though, seems odd that it let you use it the first time, it's all software based anyway so guess it was a glitch.

Hi I work for o2 UK and it sounds to me like you luckily got a device set up for a contract. O2 only tend to sim lock the payg devices now. The salesman probably picked up the wrong device.
Last year, I got an HTC Incredible S and absolutely love the phone. The only thing I did not like was the capacity, so I got a 32GB card instead. I do not know if there is a special procedure to follow when you change the SD card, so I just copied everything from one card to the other. Of course, some programs did not find the data, so that data had to get loaded again.
The phone was locked to an operator in Norway - Telenor, but as I used a SIM from an operator that used their network, I did not need to switch. This year I needed to go back to Brazil and wanted to make sure I could use my phone with my TIM number here. So I called Telenor when it was getting close and got the unlock code. I then tried to unlock it after changing to a SIM from a different network in Norway. But it did not work.
After trying a third SIM card, it seemed to work, so I thought it was ok and the phone had never actually been locked. How wrong was I...
After arriving in Brazil last week and picking up my SIM from TIM Brazil, I found out that the lock is very much in place. And the code I got is not working.
If I was in Norway still, I could send it to Telenor for free and they would fix it, but I am not. So what can I do to unlock it?
The full model as displayed by the phone:
HTC Incredible S S710e
The instructions for unlocking never mentioned anything about keeping the original SD card, but can that be the reason for it not working?
After I changed to the new SD card, the cold boot of the phone is extremely long, but most of the day-to-day operations is ok.
Any suggestions to what I can do to remove the operator lock? I have noticed that there is an official site from HTC where you can unlock some things of the Incredible S. Will that do the job?
I really need to be able to use my phone here. I hope someone out there have an idea what to do.

No the unlock procedure at HTCDEv.com is to unlock the bootloader so you can root and customize your phone. Unfortunately, rooting your phone will not help ou SIM unlock your phone.
You need to SIM unlock your phone which the unlock code should have done. Also the SiM unlock code has nothing to do with your SD card.
You need to contact Telenor and tell them that the unlock code does not work. Or you can try one of the paid services that provide unlock codes for a fee.
