Does the device have to be rooted? I need info on how to unlock my nexus one if its possible; I would appreciate it

Are you asking about SIM-Unlocking or bootloader unlocking?
SIM-Unlocking allows your device to be used on any GSM Cell Network using just a SIM card. All Nexus One's come unlocked in the US. I think they do everywhere, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
Bootloader unlocking allows you to flash custom boot/recovery/system/data/cache images. Many prefer not to unlock their bootloader because once it's done, it cannot be undone, and it leaves a lock icon on your splash image each time you boot your device.
Also, just a heads up- you'll end up upsetting a lot of people if you post questions in the General part of the forum. Make sure to post questions in the Q&A section from now on.
Congrats on your purchase of a Nexus One. It's truly a wonderful device.
Hope I helped. Click thanks if I did.
The N1 Wiki has all the information you need.

Thanks for the file but HTC__038 is the RUU for India, not Europe. I'm facing the same problem and I'm not able to finf this file. I contacted the local service center and HTC and they told me to send the mobile to India!!
My mobile is dead now for almost two week.
Sorry it says Europe hope you get it worked out.

Is there a chance that the custom roms can be used in these china versions? I am tired of the blinkfeed screen and would like a custom rom installed to get rid of this. Not sure if these roms can be used without destroying 2 sim card support.
thanks.
just install a different launcher if you dont want blinkfeed
I'm not sure whether ROMs will work on your variant (but I'd guess that they would) but as long as you're rooted with a custom recovery installed then you could always try it and see if you can install them or not. Of course, just make sure that you make a backup beforehand so if anything goes wrong, you can make sure that you can recover your phone to a working state.
You don't actually need to install a custom ROM to get rid of blinkfeed though. If you take a look at Q12 on the HTC One FAQ, you'll see that there are 2 ways you can "get rid" of blinkfeed without needing to install a ROM.
*NOTE* As this is a question, you shouldn't have posted your thread in the development section. I've just asked a moderator to move your thread to the Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum. Please remember to use that section if you have any further questions.

So far all 3 recovers in one forum can not be flahsed into One 802w. So there is no way to root it at this moment.
Not sure any recovery can be made for 802w or not.

If you can read Mandarin I would recommend trying out this site. It's probably the best and most reliable of the Chinese sites for custom Rom and rooting solutions for PRC specific devices: http://bbs.gfan.com/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=1257

The poster above you posted a link to the Chinese HTC One forums. From what I can gather they have already rooted it and have Roms available. Maybe your wife can help you out with understanding it. I can't repost the link because my post count is too low but it is the bbs gfan URL above.

The HTC store is absolutely useless. There are so many things that are not available on it. But if you bought this phone in China, then you have no choice as the Play Store and any Google services are banned. I had to install a custom tweaked ROM that had google services on it to enable everything again.
Hi there,
I just purchase HTC ONE M7 802W (china unicom version with 2 simcard)
But Since I Need google framework (google appslaystore, map, gmail, google contact etc etc etc more importantly, I live in Indonesia)
Then I guess I need to install the google apps into my HTC one.
The question is:
Is it possible to install the google apps without flashing
Rooted 802w from Shenzhen?
May you let me know if I could buy one from your friend in Shenzhen rooted?
I am very interested.
Greetings!
I order to unlock your HTC 10 Sprint phone check another my thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-one-m9/general/htc-one-m9-sprint-sim-unlock-distantly-t3479125
Unlock process is the same as with HTC One M9. Thanks!
Nothing new....
Here I have been doing this for the last year.
Also here you can see an NV method that is working for HTC 10 and most models too.
Not sure whats up with the post... :/
