At&t HTC Vivid Network Unlock - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

In short, I bought a network locked HTC Vivid (at&t) to be used on tmobile and was provided with this unlock code from at&t.... sooo I figured I'd share, considering all the wonderful info I've found here. I am curious as to if this code can be used to unlock other HTC phones from at&t. Hopefully someone can confirm this.
HTC Vivid Unlock Code: 88339447
Just enter it at the sim unlock prompt and there ya go.
May be worth a sticky...:fingers-crossed:

Unlock codes are based on your imei...
There is a thread for unlocking with software in the dev section...

Um...
Yeah, your best bet is to do a software unlock. Like someone just said, the subsidy unlock code (which is what you provided) is in fact calculated using the IMEI from your phone; and not universal.
But thanks anyway... ha ha

If you search the Vivid forum (not just the dev sub-forum) it is very easy to find (see below). Note that you need S-OFF to do this.

Rogers to Tmobile G1

I have just obtained a G1 Dream from someone in Canada, its on the rogers network, but i want to move it to Tmobile (or any other network). I think its soft-bricked (haven't see the phone yet), which i am sure i can work around. But how do i get it to work on a US carrier. Is there anything special i should know or do? Something other than putting in a sim and entering the unlock code?
Thanks!

No unlock code and u may need your carriers apn settings.....I ued one on art...tmobile u will only get edge

HTC One Network Unlock

Hi there guys,
I didn't manage to find a theme for network unlock of the HTC One so I decided to create one. If there is already one for the same problem please refer me to it.
So I've been trying to network unlock my one for 2 days now. It's locked to a Bulgarian network (Europe). I used this site (gsmliberty.net) for an unlock code but so far it's not working and they are still working on the problem. The carrier wants me to pay 150 leva for the unlock code which is around 75 EUR. Can you guys share your experience unlocking your phones or refer me to a web site which gives the correct network pins for HTC One?
Thanks a lot for your help
You mean SIM unlock?

[Q] sim unlock HTC Desire

HI everyone,
i bought HTC Desire 510 from virgin Mobile US, but i lived in Dubai and want to use his phone here. whenever i put local sim it show invalid sim. is their any way to use local sim card in this phone. Please Senior member and xda devs reply this thread.
thank you
Your phone is locked to Virgin Mobile so your going to have to get it carrier unlocked before you can use any other carrier. You can do this by paying Virgin Mobile to do it or there are various online sources that can unlock it also for a small fee. I'm also not sure about the frequencies that the phone runs on in the USA vs Dubai so it may have issues with that. Good luck.
CDMA htc's are very easy to unlock. Check htc one m8 and m7. But it must be rooted first. So far, no root method has been detailed. So just chill

HTC Desire 510 Virgin USA
Hi there,
I wish to know if you guys would suggest some methods or tweaks that I can use to HTC Desire 510 Virgin Mobile.
This is a no contract phone with Virigin Mobile USA.
I purchased an unlock code from another service provider online. Followed the steps. When I insert another active sim card, it does not prompt me to enter the Unlock Code and the phone keeps saying Invalid Sim.
Would you guys be able to help.

Hello!
I've activated the phone by standart Boostmobile way:
Enable wifi, connect to internet,
found at google the Boostmobile's page for activating new phones,
entered where two codes from phone paper box, enter my info (names, emails, etc), paid minimal possible amount of money (10 usd), received email from BoostMobile
with my new US telephone Boostmobile number and account pin, several codes, including MSL...
After reboot, the phone said that he is activated now, setuped voicemail, installed some updates (all it via WiFi), changes wallpaper...
But now I don't know where MSL enter to.
And I still not sure what my Boostmobile HTC Desire 510 phone have GSM-compatible radio...
I've wrote to Boostmobile support about using MSL and connecting to europian GSM networks, they answered something about - "wait for 11th Februaury 2015, we'll something about unlocking..."
So, now where isn't a solution.
---------- Post added at 11:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------
I've found some engineer's menus, where phone asks for MSL codes, and it suites.
For example , # # 3282 #
But I still don't know where is menu for unlocking SIM slot for using with GSM networks.

I have got this phone from US and it is locked on Virgin network.
Rite now i am trying to unlock this phone in India but this is not activated , is there any way I can get MSL code
Getting the MSL Code is fairly easy. Root your phone and download the Get MSL app. Run it and BOOM! you will have your MSL.
Its possible that it doesn't work in the first go. Run the app again and it should work.

please were you able to unlock the HTC 510 via msl and how did you do that? I'm thinking buying this phone for my little sister and was wondering if it can be unlocked. I contacted an unlocking service provider who said if the phone doesn't ask for unlock code, then it's not possible to unlock it. I don't know if this is true.

If you can't sim unlock using a code, the you can try to s-off and use the sieempi method

Follow the below link
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU7vi388dMk
Your device is unlocked!!!
That will unlock the bootloader but I don't think it sim unlocks it also? My phone came sim unlocked but with past phones unlocking the bootloader never sim unlocked my phones. After unlocking the bootloader google these two words "sieempi wonderhowto" and the first hit should be a guide to show you how to sim unlock. Sorry I can't post links as this is my first post ever.
If that still fails to sim unlock your phone all isn't lost yet. To use that method you have to S-Off your phone and if your phone is S-Off than your other option would be to run a T-Mobile RUU. You would be stuck having to run a T Mobile rom but at least you could use your phone.
I would also contact HTC because it sounds very odd they would send you a AT&T phone if you sent them a T Mobile phone to be fixed. Maybe they sent you the wrong phone?
A new thread might show up in a few days from a AT&T customer saying HTC repaired their phone but sent them back a T Mobile instead

IMEI Unlocking Code?

Hi,
I'm trying to unlock the "imei" on my Moto x XT1097 Telus Mobility so I can use a Rogers Wireless Sim Card but am having difficulty to find a reliable Unlocking Service online. Has anyone done this with their Moto x lately? And if they found one?
Any info would be much appreciated.

AT&T is unlikely to give out a lock code for a Telus phone.

I just input the given unlock code they gave me and it worked on the 1st time. I do not live in the US, however my local carrier here pretty much uses the same bands as at&t. I've read that users have issue with trying to get it to work on T-Mobile network after updating it to lollipop. Might want to double check your APN settings or maybe there's a bad coverage in your area?

I cannot confirm a fix for that because i do not stay in the United States. Try downloading an app called secret phone info in the playstore. You will be able to switch the network from the default gsm/LTE to wdcma preferred. I found this that I'm able to get better cell reception. Maybe try calling T-Mobile or keep searching in google. If I'm not mistaken theres a slight hardware difference between the T-Mobile (pure edition) and AT&T variant regarding the bands it supports.

If you have an ATT XT1097, you can request an unlock code from ATT here:
https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/#/
If you are not an ATT customer, you select non-ATT Mobility customer when requesting your unlock code.

I have the ATT services but I can't request that code because the person I received the devices from has completed their contract yet.
That is why I am trying to figure this method.

Believe it or not, AT&T has been unlocking phones that are still on contract or are still on Next payment plans. There are threads about this in the iPhone forums.

I have only IMEI unlocked AT&T iPhones so I don't really know how it works with Androids, but I do know that people have IMEI unlocked their Androids that were still on contract by simply requesting the unlock through that link.
