Hi friends
Ok, I'm a newbie here. I just unlocked my SIM on my HTC Blackstone (the phone was locked to Orange UK). Is it possible to flash the ROM to a norwegian ROM without bricking the phone?
Regards
SIM lock is not the same as CID lock
CID=Carrier ID
This means that only ROMs from the specific carrier you are locked to can be flashed.
There is currently no CID-unlocker/Hard-SPL available whick allows you to flash other ROMs than your own CID.
Best regards,

Hey, i have an htc one sim locked to Bell, rooted, s-off, supercid, running android rev rom 13.3. When i insert a different sim card it doesnt prompt me to enter sim unlock code. Has anyone seen this or have a solution? Thanks.
Just flash stock RUU i.e. stock rom.. it will ask for unlock code then
Hello i have an htc one m7 that was initially locked to orange, i had it unlocked using a card that was inserted to flash some code.
For this card to be able to flash the code.. the htc was rooted and had S-off.
After the card flash that code i could use any sim in my htc one
Now there is a system update available.
My question is if i update will i lose my unlock, brick my phone ?
What do you guys recommend that i should do ?
Anybody ??
Hi guys,
My brother purchased an Xperia Z not too long ago, sim unlocked, and is now wondering if I could flash a custom rom on his device without removing the sim unlock, if it does. Here's some device info:
-originally on T Mobile network
-c6606
-stock rom, build 10.4.C.0.814
-android 4.3
-locked bootloader (device does not allow to unlock)
-rooted
-flashed both Philz and TWRP recovery
-we don't know which sim unlock method was used
My questions:
-Does flashing a custom ROM, e.g. cm based RR, remove the phones sim unlock?
-If so, are there any safe ROMs to flash?
-Some doubt I'd like to clear as it is not my phone: I haven't seen much ROMs for c6606. What features would be removed if I flashed a c6603 (or the other one, c6602, I believe)? Does this affect sim unlock?
Thanks
Juan

You can't install roms other than stock based ones on locked bootloader, I think.

Now that I look at the forum again, that's true. So, would flashing any of the LB stock roms affect sim unlock?

No
Thank you all. I will proceed with the flashing.
No, but you can flash stock based roms. Because of SIM lock, also there would be a Bootloader locking.
If you want to unlock your phone, contact T-Mobile.
In Hungary they unlock it for 10000 HUF (use google to calculate)
