no SIM unlock hacks.. you must ask operator (vodafone) for unlock, or pay for unlock code

This might be a really stupid question, but have you tried another sim card in it yet?

You cannot use the other unlockers for this model.
Contact me by PM , I can give you the unlock code.
*ALL* UK vodafone contract phones are now sim unlocked.
Same with Telnor/Vodafone Sweden. They do not lock the phones.
You might see the locked phones soon.
Now T-Mobile Netherlands has locked phones and they are out in the market.
I can confirm that htccode can remove the simlock from a X1, my X1 was locked with a T-Mobile Netherlands Simlock, but now it's simlock free
Was done in about 5 minutes...
just got one from mobilkom austria (vodafone partner) a week ago - it came unlocked
mine came unlocked out of box. O2 uk (mobiles.co.uk)

I got my X1 last thursday, locked from Vodafone.
Simple visit to htccode and within a few minutes it was unlocked.
Excellent service.

Why don't you just flash the phone with the latest generic firmware as described in the ROM-forum? Branding and SIM-lock should be gone after that.

SIM-lock remains with a ROM flash.

Mine has gone away. Austria Mobilkom branded phone, now with AT_Generic Firmware and no SIM-Lock anymore -I tried SIM-cards from "3" and "T-Mobile" and they are working.
SIM lock has to be a software-issue, I don't think that they will mess with the hardware for each provider?
At least, it's a try. What works for me could work for others too.
is this the same as CID unlock? or only simcard lock?
unlocked x1
SFR (french vodafone partner) provide unlocked x1 too !!
I DONT SEE WHAT I NEED...IS THERE ANY STANDALONE THAT CAN UNLOCK THIS FONE..X1 YES OR NO?WHER?regards

Try to change your O2 ROM with the European ROM using Goldcard method

That would DeBrand the Device (removing the O2 Splash screen etc) however it WILL NOT unlock the device to allow another network's sim card to work in the device.
The ONLY way at the moment to unlock your device is to either obtain the code from O2 which you have tried or pay for one through a unlock site such as the one he's already been shown (http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/htc-hd7-unlock)
^^ ok thanks for all of you guys
i'll try that website
i wish that it work..
best regards for you ...

P9 EVA-AL10 - Sim lock help!

So I purchased the Huawei P9 EVA-AL10 4GB edition. I was told that this version has the most LTE bands and would be able to work with US carriers. When I try and put my Sim card in I get the message that says only China Telecom sims can be used. Is there a way around this? I know in the EVA-AL09 that any Sim will work. Please help as I now have a beautiful but useless device.
Thank you
Any tips on unlocking the Chinese Sim lock ?
