Not possible!
No, rooting refers to obtaining administrative privilieges over the entire system

Hi,
A simple question: if I have the Bootloader locked, and my smartphone (going to the service test page via *#*#7378423#*#*) says me that rooting status about bootloader unlock allowed is NO, it's due to my smartphone is locked by my carrier? (I have followed this instructions: unlockbootloader "." sonymobile "." com)
Flashing the ROM is enough to have it unlocked?
Thanks,
Marc

If it's carrier locked then there's no unlocking it.

If you got it direct from a carrier, NO.
Hi Guys
I was given the Motoroloa razr I as gift but the only issue is its locked down to Orange and I have a Virgin sim card. Does anyone know a way to unlock this to work on Virgin? Would it involve unlocking the bootloader?

A Virgin sim card should work in an Orange-locked phone.

No root or bootloader unlocked needed, just buy an imei unlock code, insert the Virgin's sim and It'll ask for the unlocking code, then you're done
Hi, wanted to ask if anyone has done this or has the steps to follow? When I insert a foreign sim card into it, it says, "this sim card is from an unknown source" and picks up no service.
Im new to the forum hopeing you guys can guide me to where I should post about this.
Thanks

Because your phone is carrier branded, you must sim-unlock it to be able to use it on another carrier.
You can sim-unlock using a paid code. There are many onlince service for that. A sim unlock code generaly cost between 5 - 15$ US. You put the sim card in the phone, boot the phone and then you'll be prompted to enter the code. (phone must be on stock rom)
This is an example of a website offering that service (not tested myself) http://www.doctorsim.com/us-en/unlock-phone/htc/
If your phone is s-off, you can sim-unlock for free if you have the required hardware and knowledge (SIEEMPI method)
There is also a new method to sim-unlock by using the Sunshine app (which was previously only useful to achieve s-off). The app cost 25$.
Version 3.1
Added HTC m9 support (not Verizon)
Added Experimental HTC Simunlock (Not m9, Not CDMA devices)

so try sunshine method, if it doesn't work, you'll have s-off anyway so it will be possible to unlock using the sieempi method
HTC 612 Verizon
is there a way to S-Off this HTC device for free like the old firewater I have no problem paying Sunshine app but I need this phone SIM unlock for a customer what if after paying for the app and gaining S-Off the SD Card method don't work for this phone
then I'm out of 25 dollars again no problem with that but I only need S-Off to SIM unlock the phone for a customer
Thanks
