Hi guys, I've searched and found no legit answer to my question. Can I unlock Bootloader without SD card inserted. SD gets wiped is what I've heard and seen in the tutorial by krabbappel but what if I do it without the SD card inserted. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Hello ladies and gents
Some of you may have seen my previous thread about unlocking a friends phone. I ended up unlocking the phone, as well as sim unlocking the phone for her as she wanted. Here lies my issue, she did not give me her sim card when giving me her phone. So, instead I had to use my sim card for the s-off procedure, and for the sim unlock. My question is, now that I have used my SD card to place the config.dat file(sim unlock), is her sim unlock now dependent on my SD card, or can I remove my SD card and she still have access to the sim unlock?
You're good... take your card out and put the other in

Hi..
I want to do unlock bootloader process..I'm already made TA Backup and currently on Monxdified Rom (4.3)..
1. Can I do unlock with this custom rom or should I flash the stock 4.3 first before do the unlocking process?
2. SD Card will be wipe or not?
Thanks..
I read somewhere when you Unlocking Bootloader something will be wiped but i think is not the SD. Anyway just read carefully on Sony webside where you have to go to unlock the bootloader. There will be all explained.

Thanks friend..I'm already do the unlocking process yesterday..
Yes mate u can unlock with custom rom but its always recommended that u must do the unlocking bootloader process on stock firmware.....and ur sd card will not be wiped....hope that helps...
Title says it all really.
I previously had rooted my old HTC Wildfire S and that had a removable SD Card but with the HTC One M7, if I unlock the bootloader through HTCDev and flash a recovery etc, does this affect data on the /sdcard partition?
Will it get wiped? Cheers

Unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device, after that though you can flash recoveries, rom's, kernels whatever without wiping your sd card.
So if your going to unlock backup your internal storage to your pc first. After you've unlocked you can copy it back. Then you can flash a rom or or whatever without losing it :good:

like already said, /data is wiped during the bootloader unlocking process so yes /sdcard will be wiped because /sdcard is a simlink to /data/media/0.
And don't forget about /data/preload (preloaded HTC apps and weather animations) which will also be wiped thus preventing the installation of future ota updates and obviously, you won't have HTC apps anymore (flashlight, calculator...) on your phone nor weather animations in the weather app. (unless that folder is restored after the bootloader unlock).
My phone is pretty much a dead weight now, i've updated to miui 12 and the IMEI number went to space for some reason and therefor it doesnt get sim card signal
I wanted to try to unlock the bootloader so i could flash the stock rom and stuff like that but how could i do it if the sim card doesn't work?

I don't think it is possible to unlock BL without a working SIM card.
