Guest Lordsmiff Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Have you tried HTCCODE.com - i've used them twice now and it's worked fine for me (though they were on rooted heroes with MCR3.1) Smiffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes Systems would not recognize the imei number unless last digit was a 0 Edited January 28, 2010 by martyn028 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ri2la Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Hello again, I think i've been chatting to you on another forum owned by an unlocking service. .....Anyway, I'm in exactly the same situation, no one can seem to get me an unlocking code and i've been told its probably because its too new??? BTW both sticker and software imei match! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ri2la Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Well i believe htccode is doing a db update in the next couple of days and i am led to believe they will then have unlock codes for the newer phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shenshang Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 HTCcode, if that doesnt work, then flash a generic ROM or modaco onto your phone, and it will definitely work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ri2la Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Sorry...but no one seems to realize (not just on here).............. its not that the code doesn't work, but that there is NO CODE available!! Already MCR 3.1 etc... ready as i know the code doesn't work with original Orange UK rom. I haven't had a working phone for a few days, as i was promised by a unnamed unlocking site it would only take 10 mins, then ended up refunding me (3 days later) after i had cancelled my contract and purchased my new sim (my fault really but still...) Since that episode i'm now on the 3rd company htccode and they at least have been open and honest about timescales as i contacted them before putting an order in. Just fingers crossed they stick to them. (sorry just in case, the above is NOT having a go, just trying to show my frustration at the situation.)
