Hi again, glad to know your device is back to life :victory:
You can use a sim unlock code service from internet or even trough a google play app. Basically, you'll need to provide your phone IMEI # and they will send you back you sim unlock code. Cost between 10-20$ us in most cases. Sometime your carrier can give you that code to. Again you'll need to call them and provide IMEI #.
good luck

I'm having the exact same issue and if anyone could offer some sort of advice. I've been told my security block has been corrupted and other nonsense. No solutions or if any of the tools can get the code to take.

We are continuing to dig for a solution but the issue is there is a unique identifier within the eMMC which is checked by the modem through amss.bin with an RSA certification. If this unique identifier is destroyed by user corruption (bricking the phone within that region) then there is currently no way to rebuild it. The most logical way to resolve this issue is to have a developer patch the modem/radio to bypass that check. It should be able to be done and is already being done on the N7100 and I9300 devices which were facing a similar issue...

I have the same problem with my HTC m7 (Sim IMSI unlock PIN) after JTAG
still no solution?

I had to buy a new phone but i still use my old one around the house on my WiFi. I thought the Jtag repair guy screwed mine up but apparently it's common.
I've written some developers to see if someone can write a patch. No luck though, I can't even get an answer from anyone. We need a patch to bypass the security check done against the modern on boot.
I'm almost at the point of learning to do it myself. A lot of people are having this issue. Thoughts?

[Q] Need help to Sim Unlock AT&T HTC One

Looking to unlock an AT&T version of the HTC One to T-Mobile. I do have an unlock code but it's not working. The phone is rooted and running ARHD 51. I just flashed a different stock rom, tried the code once again but still no luck.
Any suggestions?

I heard you need to be stock to use a sim-unlock code so you might want to try back to 100% stock then use the code. If it still don't work then maybe you could purchase a new code.

Check your IMEI number and cross reference it with your original to make sure they match. My phone is doing the same thing and it came back from mobile tech videos jtag repair and my numbers are all wrong. Looking for a solution now but my serial number and IMEI numbers are different.
Just a thought, Shot in the dark

Do some searching here (in the Q&A) section, there were quite a few SIM Unlock threads solved (quite a while ago), I can't exactly remember, but it used to be a combo of
1- stock rom (or very close) but matching to firmware version
2- possibly stock recovery
3- possibly locked/relocked bootloader
4- s-off / s-on doesn't matter
I believe number 1 was the most important, can't say/remember about 2 and 3, and quite sure S-Off won't matter.

you don't need s-off, you just need to relock the bootloader
Hmmm still no luck. Been working at this for a while now, not sure what the problem is. Selling it is the only solution I can think of right now, but there must be a way to unlock this for my carrier.
Hello. I have a similar issue, so I don't think I should create another topic.
I just purchased a 64gb HTC One and purchased the unlock code from the same vendor as always. I was always able to unlock other devices (One XL, One X+, Windows phone 8X) easily, and even other Ones, since this is my fouth (first one I gave to my brother, second slipped off my pocket while in a tunnel riding my motorcycle and the third is 32gb, so I decided to sell it and buy a 64gb).
This one is used like new, everything stock, s-on, nothing unusual. Well, except the led seems to be smaller (very hard to see the red dot while charging) and the system may be newer, since it doens't find any update available.
But the code doesn't work. I tried twice thinking I could be misspelling the numbers, but returned wrong anyway.
So...
1-What happens if I try again and it returns wrong, since it's showing it's my last try?
2-Any clue?
Thanks in advance.
Does your phone work on any network? What carrier is it branded?
Best thing is to email (carrier) support and get a code from them.
This thread is for devices that have a security cross reference back end problems.
Does your phone say it accepts the code then restarts then asks for the code again?

In my experience, I'm not getting anything showing my number of attempts or last attempt. I've tried the unlock code about 8-10 times on different roms stock and non stock and stock recovery. I really have no idea.

Thanks for your answer.
All my HTCs always shown a counter.
Today, after restoring the phone to stock ruu, it wasn't showing any counter anymore, so I decided to try again the code I purchased (and other code sellers confirmed) and it worked.
Very strange... but now it's unlocked.

After a lot of painstaking effort, I managed to flash a stock RUU, got back to a stock recovery, and locked the bootloader. Got the same unlock code from two separate vendors. No dice. Incredibly frustrating, don't know what's wrong with my phone but now I have to sell it.

you must purchase a sim-unlock code. S-OFF/supercid/root will not sim-unlock the phone.
you must be as close as possible to 100% stock to use the unlock code. Anyway try it, if id doesn't work then go back to stock and re-enter the unlock code.

Thanks for trying to help me! The issue is, that there is no Unlock Code for this IMEI, I tried 5 differnt suppliers and noone could provide a code.
I guess the reason for that is the device is brand new...

in this case you could try the SIEEMPI method. The HTC ONE isn't listed on that page but many users reported that it works (in this thread)

I tried that, but I get an error when hit SIMLOCK, see screenshot. Also, the Config.dat file isnt there afterwards, tried to push it via adb to /root but it says "Read Only File-System". Am I doing something wrong? Transferred the file via usb on SD-Card and then copied it via ES Explorer to the root folder. Any Clue? Thanks.
Thats the error message.

the procedure is a bit different for the HTC One, you have to copy the .dat file to a fat32 hard drive connected to your phone with a usb Y-cable. take a look at the thread I have linked above, read the last few pages.

Unfortunately you have to be on Sprint's Network to get the OTA update. Here is the RUU 5.03.651.3 which will give you Sense 6. Just follow the instructions in the OP on how to run the RUU, since you are S-OFF you do not need to lock your bootloader to run the RUU.
Here is the link to the Sprint HTC One forum. Keep an eye out in this forum for future updates, generally someone will post the OTA so it can be installed manually.

It should not effect you SIM unlock. There is no guarantee that any process will not brick your phone, OTAs from the HTC and carriers have caused some issues. The best you can do is check MD5 checksums to see if the file has been corrupted during the download process and check the OP for any one who has reported an issue.

Do you have updated fastboot and adb? If not, Minimal ADB & Fastboot Tool
Extract the zip to your adb/fastboot folder
Boot phone into bootloader/FASTBBOOT USB before running ARUWizard.exe
Try with a different USB port and/or cables
If possible change PC's

[Q] Bootloader Problems :(

Hi everyone. I am trying to root my Htc one mini 2. (Its the verizon htc one remix). People have told me its the same phone. Anyway when i try to unlock bootloader and copy my token id using htc dev, I get this error. No one seems to know anything. Please help.
Error Code: 172.
Error Reason: CID Not Allowed (MID not exist in Model Rule).\
So far all i know is cid means carrier ID. Is this because its verizons version of the phone? thanks
I guess that your version isn't unlockable
Correct no methods worked to unlock the bootloader...
had to resell mine to get the European one mini 2....
I've been having the same problem.. It's because it's the verizon version of the phone. Verizon likes being a **** so they prevent HTC from giving out bootloader unlock codes for their phones. This basically means you can't unlock the phone through any official methods from HTC. The best bet is to wait for sunshine 3.0 to be released and see if that works because right now it's the only way to unlock verizon htc phones. However I'm not sure if sunshine is going to work for the remix. So right now there's no solution and there might not be one in the near future either. It's hit or miss. If rooting is that important to you, you might want to trade in for a new phone. Or just try and wait it out and see if something comes up.
