Hello, I bought a HTC Incredible S locked at Virgin Mobile. I did an S-OFF + installed recovery image + rooted but I still get Region locked. Is there a way to unlock the phone? (Used AlphaRevX to s-off) Thank you.
HTC Incredible S
Android 2.2.1 Froyo
yes
you pay around 13-20$ and order it online by sending them your imei no other way
i suggest this site

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386703&page=41 check out my post I just got my sprint HTC one working on ATT
So this Summer I'm traveling to Europe for a month and would like to SIM unlock my phone so I can use a European SIM card to stay connected on the trip, I know I'll need to have it unlocked so it'll work, but Sprint only does a temp unlock for going out of the country and relocks it when you come back (I believe) and I figured, since I'd like to also switch to T-Mobile later, if there was a way to permanently SIM unlock? Also as a bonus, anyone know a good telecom company to use going through multiple EU countries? One where I don't have to get a new SIM everytime I go to a different country?

it should, I can't guarantee it though, I have the non-HK edition and it worked for me, it worked on my previous sprint m7 too

So when you mean that, just that I won't be able to use it with a US based GSM carrier? Any way to get around that?
there are no tested ways around that, In theory every htc one has the same hardware so theoretically speaking if you get S-off you could flash the factory unlocked's RUU and convert your phone to a complete factory unlocked model, that way you could use a gsm us carrier, you should note that before doing this you may wanna change the model id and cid as well, you could supercid or use any other unlocked variant's cid, but this is just in thery if you wanna go ahead and try it yourself it is not my responsability, once you're s-off you could hard brick your phone and end up with a paper weight
If I am soff, flash wrong ruu then in theory I should be able to flash back right ruu and recover, is that true?

Hello i try to test on a HTC one M8 Sprint and this is what i get:
"Error: Activity class {com.redbend.vdmc/com.htc.omadm/test.TestMainActivity} dos not exist. "
the SIM_UNLOCK was apply via custom recovery, is rooted and have s-off, version 4.4.2.
since you're s-off you can try changing your CID, there is an all-in-one tool that will help you with that on the FAQ thread for the sprint m8, just change your CID to 11111111
help sim unlocking htc one m8

i dont get you , isnt that for unbricking a device?
Anyone to direct a link ?… of already SIM unlock ?…….. Ruu…. Am in superCID 111111??
the terminal command is wrong
After hours of research i was able to unlock it using other modelo phone threads
I didnt use this flashable zip I used the HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk found on a sim unlock thread, if you will i can upload when im home.
The correct command is
Su am start com.redbend.vdmc/com.htc.omadm.test.TestMainActivity
To unlock HK version simply do SuperCID flash reg sprint RUU versión 1.xx.xx android 4.4.2
And do the process, then freely flash back HK edición RUU also tested by myself
@jseb14
Can u direct me how to unlock ? it via… .dat apk… ..coz am already in superCID 111111 and S-OFF…. Plzzz
the apk will be attached
View attachment HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk
thids is the apk
place it system/app folder backup the original apk and the .odex then reboot.
So I've found a HTC One M7 in the park about 2 weeks ago that was blocked on O2 - I live in England - so I bought a code and unlocked it to work on all the networks, however, it won't read the sim card even if I manually choose the network - it says that my sim card cannot be registered on that network and I'm also having no signal. So I thought that the person who lost it went to O2 and O2 blocked it. So, here comes my question - how can I unblock it so that it can read my SIM card, or, I don't know, register it? Thanks in advance! By the way, I unlocked it's Bootloader, I rooted it, and I installed a Custom Recovery, but I couldn't S-off it cause it is running HBOOT 1.61 with Stock Android Lollipop 5.0.2.
Been fiddling with this all day. HTC One M7 from Rogers needs to work with other carriers. Bricked itself a year ago during a system update, put SlimRom 4.4 on it and that's been fine until now. I get asked for an unlock code when I put in the new SIM, I bought one and it won't accept it (Phone has been rooted and reflashed, assuming this is why).
I backed everything up. ADB and such is working. I have an Android 4.4 Rogers RUU that I am assuming will let me unlock the SIM once installed. Also assuming S-Off required to install RUU, and attempting to get S-Off. I tried installing Sunshine (by pushing the APK) and Sunshine opens but says I need a more stock-like ROM for it to work. I'm okay with the $25 or whatever it costs, if it works. I installed htc1guru's Rogers nandroid backup in hopes of it being stock enough for Sunshine or a SIM Unlock. Touch Screen no longer works. I can get an OTG Cable tomorrow and attempt to SIM Unlock or Sunshine, if that is the problem.
Am I doing this right?

Can you please post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (remove your imei and serialno before posting). Your touchscreen issue is for sure caused by flashing a guru reset version way much older than your firmware version (btw what was the guru reset version used)?
