Anyone know how I can unlock my Three branded phone?
I know Three will unlock but charge £15/20!

I'd like to know too, having hit the HTC Dev "sorry it aint going to happen" error message when transferring the code across to the HTC site. I've seen sites that will do this for money so I know there's a solution out there. After many years of Android and unlocking I don't particularly want to pay someone for something that should be public knowledge.
I got a code from eBay for £3 and it worked fine... Send me a pm with your email and send you link....

Think you need s-off before you can remove carrier locks.

Can't say about UK, but my HTC One on 3 Sweden was no problem unlocking bootloader from HTC Dev at beginning of last week... Just wanted to clarify in case other swedes read and give up in advance... Find it strange that the same carrier would have different policys in different countries but fairly new to the game so I'm not sure.

I unlocked my 3 UK branded HTC one via htcdev
If HTC one is not in drop down menu
Then select other models option
This worked for me
Edit
Not sure if op means unlock bootloader, which is via htcdev as above or carrier unlock, to use a non 3 SIM, which is a different process
You will be emailed an unlock token that you should save, as this can be used to unlock your phone again should you relock

International ROM
Can anyone here give me simple starter instructions to reflash my vodafone htc one with international stock rom
I dont want a custom rom just a non vodafone rom form HTC, EU or World.
It is SIM unlocked Bootloader locked.
Can this be done without rooting?
Just switched form Samsung where it was easy to switch to a different rom by flashing without rooting...is there a similar way with HTC?

Thinking of changing form an Xperia Z with a locked bootloader - would you be so kind as to confirm whether the HTC One on 3 UK has a locked down bootloader? The XZ bootloader is locked down tighter than a duck's behind.

I know that the bootloaders are locked, but can you unlock it after you get root?
I know that they're working on root exploits, and I helped test somethings today for the VZW version.
Would something like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.segv11.bootunlocker work or something similiar be made for it?
If you can have root access without unlocking the boot loader that would be beneficial. Means your warranty is still valid for me I'm screwed as my boot loader is unlocked

Not without some sort of boot strap. Like safe strap or boot menu.

Is anyone working on an unofficial bootloader unlock/lock so we wouldn't lose our warranty?

What I would like to know is if the developer edition still maintains warranty after unlocking the boot loader?

To my understanding is that No It doesn't. When you go to the Moto website and go to the unlock your bootloader area and then find your phone. Once you click on that it gives you the whole deal on what you are about to do is going to void your warranty. Go figure, they make a phone with the ability to unlock the boot loader for just that specific reason and they still void your warranty. Lol

okay i will try thx
still nothing... am i doing something wrong?
i have succefuly unlocked the bootloder but when i inserted my t-mobile it says it doesn support it. do i need to edit or add a new APN?
Unlocking the boatloader is different then unlocking it for a different carrier that's a separate process,I don't think it is possible to use it for a gsm phone in the u.s just abroad.

all but the Verizon HTC one are easily unlocked at HTCDEV.com
and the Verizon one has an s-off workaround to get unlocked also.
do you have a G2 or are you asking how to trade for one ?

one look in the development section should answer your questions the bootloader has been unlocked by HTC since the beginning
If you have an HTC One GPE 4.4 or version after with locked bootloader. You cannot unlock it anymore (it may be an bug from HTC or sth)

Hello, I just got my Sony Xperia Z1S a couple of weeks ago and I'm on T-Mobile's Jump Program. I understand how the program works but I'm wondering if I root the phone and put a custom recovery on it will they say I can't jump to a new device when I'm eligible?

They can easy find out if you are rooted or not by seeing the boot loader its binary change for good if you root.
Only some devices have binary resetter.
so think and take you next step.
Press thanks if I helped you.
That is incorrect.
The boot loader on a Z1s can not be unlocked.
You can always unroot Xperia devices by flashing a stock ftf and no sign of routing is left.

without unlocking boot loader how can we root ?
You follow the one of the several guides in the development section.
Unlocking the bootloader is not the only way to root and since a lot of Xperia devices can not unlock the boot there are lots of ways to root with out touching the boot loader

Unlocked bootloader is always rootable.
Locked on other hand is sometimes HARD to root.
So if you can't root locked bl, it's easier to make tutorial to root with unlocked.
Since z1s can't unlock bl, it's mean it is locked, he rooted that way.
If he unroot, or flash stock rom, no trace of root is left behind.

That is only one way to root, and always works, if you are allowed to unlock the boot
But it is not often the only way or the best way or even possible (as some devices can not unlock the boot)

Yup. I am rooted but my bootloader is still locked. The only other device I had where I was rooted but my bootloader locked down tight was my Motorola Droid X. But still was able to flash custom Roms through Bootstrap recovery.

But its always, to me, nice to have the boot loader unlocked because you can do a lot more in the hacking sense with no worries. All of my other devices that have the BL unlocked are all easy to save if you some how bricked it. No need for rsd lite / sbf your Moto device. Plus all of my devices where I unlocked the BL, I had long after the warranty expired.
