Does anyone know if I can use this phone in Europe? I have it SIMUnlocked. And I got it off contract. Just wondering if I can use it on a European providers network when I head there this summer.
Thanks!

Indeed it is sim unlocked (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277572) and I am planning on getting a sim there in Europe.
Thanks for the help.

Yes, works great here. Just make sure you put in the correct APN settings.
Using First in Italy without any trouble, 4g mode is available...
I use the HTC First in Germany with Vodafone and it works great. Also with 4G. Just check APN from your Provider and then lets go.
Have fun!

I use unlocked D3 but this device is 512MB ram also there is no official ICS(no flash reader, no camcorder). If I can use D4 on gsm network, I'll upgrade!

Yes you can, but currently only with the leaked ICS firmwares. The stock gingerbread firmware does not allow it. Supposedly the official ICS firmware is due in Q3 2012
I made a thread here with instructions on how to do it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766479
Will this work if the droid 4 has a bad ESN?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Should be, the esn is usually used to activate cdma, for gsm you only have to activate a sim card and put it in...

Just take one w/o contract - and that should be enough. No unlock codes was required for me.

Almost the answer I was looking for.
So could someone confirm this:
Bad esn doesn't affect calling via a SIMcard?
I know it's a very old thread, but worth trying..
ESN's and IMEI numbers are used for GSM phones(AT&T, T-Mobile and now Verizon also). MEID numbers are used with CDMA phones(Verizon,Sprint) and just because the phone has ics or jb doesn't mean it's unlocked. You still have to install a different sim card and put in an unlock code which you can get from Verizon if you are with them or pay for it online somewhere. Once the new sim card is installed into phone and the unlock code is entered, the phone will state that your device has been unlocked. Unlocking phones is mainly for overseas use outside of the US. I have much experience with this as I served in the U.S. military for 10 years and I took my old phone over with me. Upon arrival in the new country, you set up cell service with a GSM provider, install their sim card and viola! Hope I could clear this up for you guys! Not trying to sound mean, just informative.
EDIT: Bad ESN's or MEID's can be a bad thing but some can be changed or flashed over with new one's from third party service providers like PagePlus Cellular, etc.

Hey guys.
Just wondering, Is it possible to Unlock the ATT, Sprint, ..... whatever version of the HTC One to work with any network worldwide? I didnt see any threads about this .
thanks
It's possible to unlock any phone. You'll have to go through your provider if you live in the states.

Thanks for the reply, thats the thing , I dont live in the states. im in New Zealand.
You might want to check that the phone has the correct radio bands enabled for your region, the US carriers use unusual tech, you'll be unlikely to be able to use 4G.

I already have that covered just need to know if i can unlock it or not. im in New Zealand and the damn phone wont be released here for another month .
My mom told me she's looking to get this phone unlocked but it doesn't specify a model number. I suspect this is the international phone? Anyone know if this particular model will run on ATT/Aio LTE?

You will have to call Sprint International Services and tell them you are traveling overseas and if you meet certain requirements they will unlock it. If not you will just have to wait for somebody to find a fix if you want it unlocked.
To the 2 ppl that replied (and anyone out there) did you tried popping an att/tmobile Sim and see if it works? the m7 came unlocked no?
I need to know like right now cuz about to order one thanks! !!

The M7 did not come unlocked. It was the same thing with that phone. You had to call to unlock it, internationally. It was them sim unlocked for all but you had to be rooted.

Anyone knows if the unlocker app ffpr the Sprint htc one m7 will work on the sprint HTC one m8?
Can someone try it please ? I want to buy a htc one m8 and sabré to know if the Sprint version is compatible with the 3g/4g from att? I dont care LTE
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
The sim unlock app on the play store stopped working after the m7 was updated to 4.4.2. This phone uses the same version of android so I very much doubt it would work.
