question on unlocking and rooting

i've searched, couldn't find exactly what i was looking for. anyhow, i have a g1 and att service. i have the tmobile provided unlock code and it's unlocked. if i root and reflash with custom rom, i understand it will lock the phone again, would i be able to unlock it with the same unlock code?

Once sim unlocked it will not lock again.. the sim lock it stored outside any user flashable part of the phone.

[Q] unlock bootloader in SIM locked phone

I couldn't find anything by searching the older threads so here is my question:
Is it possible (and reasonably save) to try and unlock the bootloader in a SIM locked x8? Just to clarify: I don't want to remove the SIM lock from my phone - I'm happy with my current provider. I'm just wondering if I can unlock the bootloader while I still have a SIM lock on my phone.
All the threads about unlocking seemed to be concerned about how the phone was SIM unlocked rather than whether it was actually necessary...
Thanks a lot in advance..!

anyone please?
I just want to know if I can unlock my bootloader while I still have a SIM lock in place. Or will I brick my phone then? I don't want to remove the SIM lock. Just flash a custom kernel so I can get proper wifi tether...

same question... now,why is necessary have unlocked by operator the phone ???
is very maddening D:
so so please developers unlock bootloader with phone locked by operator, many peoples will thank you

[Q]root and sim unlock

i want to unlock my phone so it will be sim-free,withot purchasing unlock code,is it possible?
if i unlock my bootloader it will help?
there are other possible ways ?

I believe, network unlocking will only work with an unlock code. So you have to buy one.
Unlocking the bootloader wont help in this situation.
Anyway, if you have a Droid, then your bootloader is not locked by default, but if you have a Milestone, theres a bad news, you cant unlock its bootloader.

[Q] Sim Unlock

Hello,
I read in a couple of threads that it is possible to sim unlock the X8 via unlocking the bootloader, I am not sure if this true, so could someone confirm it?
Thanks.

Well, aren't you a smart ass.

I dont think so bcoz there is a thread for BL unlocking process said when u unlock it, u should relock sim or somethinv like that i dont really remember
Sent from my E15i using xda premium

Absolute NO. The bootloader and the sim unlock is totally different.
You can unlock your bootloader for free IF your manufacture date is week 29, 2011 or earlier. If you have younger phone (manufactured on week 30, 2011 or later) you must use paid methods (you can try with the free method but the probability of a hard brick is more than 90%).
To unlock you sim lock you must use paid method (only the plasmatool was free in a limited time period).
So, if you unlock your bootloader, it will NOT unlock your sim lock, and if you unlock your sim, it will NOT unlock your bootloader.
Note: the first bootloader unlock method relocked sim lock if you unlocked it with omnius.

nor is there a free solution?

please help

No

You can convert the P20 Pro from a simple to dual sim?

Having the unlock code obtained in ministryofsolutions to unlock the bootloader can you install Rom Dual Sim and activate the second SIM?

We speak a lot about this.
To do that you must have the bootloader ublocked (you have the code) and than use the FunkyHuawei method (you must pay)
For the moment it is the only way.

But FunkyHuawei does not recommend it because it changes the Imei for another and closes the bootloader. If at least I left you open the bootloader and gave you the code of the new Imei or I did it with your own Imei and then you could unlock the bootloader with your unlock code. Ideally, do one with the bootloader unlocked. A pity that nobody could. I come from HTC's world where you could do everything.
