Issues with Subsidy Unlock Code for HTC G1 - G1 General

So, guys, I'm aware that if a T-Mobile USA customer calls and requests a code, they can get it for no cost. I actually don't mind paying for the code, but these third party sites seem really shady, and I don't want to invest my only 15 bucks on me and have it tied up in PayPal claim litigation for a week.
So, if this is allowed on these forums, could someone with T-Mobile USA service call in and request an unlock code for the HTC G1 IMEI ..........edited by moderator.........? I would really appreciate it, and would even PayPal you the $15 as long as the code worked. My email is [email protected].
I read through the rules on this section and didn't see any against this sort of thing. If I missed it, I am terribly sorry. It won't happen again.

You should not post your IMEI in a public forum,it can be used for illegal purposes !
if any one can help you then use Pm. to communicate.
good luck
regards
faria

Oh no, I just noticed my IMEI was edited out. I hope I didn't just break a rule. Really sorry, please PM me and let me know what's up.

Maybe someone could even suggest a reputable company that has unlocked their HTC G1 in the US before? Certainly not HTCunlock.net, there forums are filled with refund demands and hatred.

You didn't break a rule. It's just that people can look take your IMEI code and use it for "bad things."
He was just protecting you, not trying to punish you.

Definitely appreciated his advice. Thanks him in PM. And thanks to everyone else to PMed me offering to help. I got the issue taken care of and I can say that I am finally rocking one of the best phones T-Mobile has to offer Thanks again all.

Same issue as the orginal quoter

I too would like to know how can i unlock my g1, which i got as a gift but Tmobile will not unlock it for me as i am not the original owner (stroke victim).
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

You can very well get the unlock codes for your HTC G1 locked to T-mobile at superunlockcodes.com which provides quick solution. You can always check out for the instruction at MobileUnlockGuide for all mobiles.

HONESTLY, UNLOCKING XDA IIi

:shock: :shock: Is there no-one who knows how to unlock the XDA IIi? I have seen a few other posts about this, but no answers except being refered to IMEI-CHECK.
1) Has anyone tried IMEI? Are they reliable? What does their wierd procedure actually do to the unit?
2) Where are the people who cracked the XDA II in a jiffy?
3) Maybe if we formed a group of interested people in this thread we could form a trust that would throw some money at whoever manages to do an application like XDAIIUnlock?
I'll alter this question just for now:
Please reply to this thread if you:
1) Have heard the there is a machine, by O2 reffered to as "XDAIIi"
2) Own this "XDAIIi" or knows somebody who does?
:? We'll just start from there. Maybe I am alone in using the IIi?
Hello, just checking if I have chosen the right forum: "The Himalaya and Andes", the Andes is referred to as XDAIIi in the UK, right?
If this is wrong and I should be posting elsewhere, any help/info is greatly appreciated. I am trying to locate other users of the XDAIIi.
If I am in the right place, it would be great to hear if there is someone else using the XDAIIi in here.
I have an XDA IIi.
I went to the IMEI check website, paid my twenty quid and got the unlock code, took all of 5 minutes.
There is no other way of unlocking it as far as I know...if there was, I wouldn't have paid £20.
Hope that helps.
thank you for your reply. I guess I will have to go with IMEI too. It's not the money that's bothering me, it's the "safety" issues. Do you know if the warranty is voided if you unlock it? Can the unlocking procedure go wrong in any way and leave you with a useless unit?
Hiya
I know this is amongst my first post so my opinion probably wont count for much but i definately recommend imei-check, he's unlocked several of my smartphones, ive spoken to him a couple of times on messenger and he is definately genuine.
:? So, I unlocked it too, using IMEI-check. It worked like a charm, very quick indeed. Wierd that he's the only guy who could figure it out though.
Yup it works!
I did mine today. Was done in an hour (had to email the proof of address).
Unfortunately my backup wouldn't restore (PITA) but the unlock worked a treat.

hi
My friend try to use IMEI-check yesterday to unlock the phone but it fail
Do they (IMEI-check) guarantee to unlock all the cases?
Regards
Tuan
Please post your IMEI numbers, and unlock codes.
We can get an algorithm sorted for the mass population of xda IIi users if you could possibly do that.
Many Thanks,
100-
Actually i did phone to O2 CS and ask them for the unlock code, they said that it is ok, but need to pay 15 pounds to them, now , i am waiting for them for the code( they said that may need up to 21 days..)

Please explain "1 code to 1 person!". Do you mean 1 FREE code? If it is, why did you refuse my proposal? If it is not free, please give us a quotation. If it is not free, I hope it will not be "1 code to 1 person!" and the cost will not be more expensive than at imei-check.co.uk! Its not bad if you can provide such a service, but please give more details or indicate your website if you want to sell your service
just out of curiosity how much is the unlock service you provide???
Please send all questions by PM.
Sorry for not answering for a long time.
I was on holidays.
How about you post more information about what you are trying to provide here ... $$ ..etc..?
In my opinion, I suggest you take "donations" instead of providing some pay service to do that .. .because everyone on XDA helps each other selflessly.
So when you come in here offering some pay service, I'd much rather just go to IMEI CHECK and pay them to do, because its a company, not some random guy who for all I know, can come in here, take our money and run.
I'am not collecting money here.
You can ask any moderator who have access to donation statistic... all payemnts are going directly to xda-developers.com... not in my pocket.
I'am offering Unlock by IMEI. If you do not like me.... use any other avaliable service. I not pushing anyone.

Well I am a Moderator and I see no Stars next to your name Tuspin.
If I look at the last donations I see none that are for 50.
Would you like to explain that ?
Tupsie-doopsie, why don't you just pay for your ads and really contribute to this forum, instead of using free space to advertise and make money?
Nobody does anything here for money... people accept donations, but they also post their work and THEN ask for donations. If you have figured out how to SIM Unlock these phones,
I can easily call T-Mobile and have them unlock my device, but I'm willing to personally send you $100, and I'm sure some other people here might contribute something as well, if you upload your SIM Unlock tool or method.

Sim Lock is when you buy a phone from T-Mobile and try to put a At&t sim in the t-mobile phone and it will not work.
Sim Unlock is when you have a phone you bought from t-mobile and unlocked the sim. Then you put a at&t sim card in the phone and it works. you can call on at&t networks if you have a at&t sim.
basicly allows a t-mobile only phone to work on any sim network.

I Know For A Fact That You Can Get Your Unlock Code From T-mobile. Just Tell Them You Are Traveling And Would Like To Use Your Phone In The Other Country. Also Its In The Digital Rights Act That They Must Provide It To You If You 1. Out Right Buy It 2. Full Filled Your Contract.
So Please Before You Pay For An Unlock Code Ask Your Carrier.

I'm sorry, but I disagree completely. (Politely said, no?)
What I consider impolite, is trying to use this forum for free advertising. If tupisdin wants to advertise his paid sim-unlock service, then he should pay for advertising, either on this site or elsewhere.
There is a word, for people trying to use discussion groups such as this one, for free advertising. That word is called SPAM! (Exception--forums specifically for the purpose of buying and selling used equipment, etc.) A lot of Usenet discussion groups have become totally ruined by spam.
Tupisdin spammed this board with this thread, and I do not appreciate that. I would suggest that the board owners delete this thread immediately.(Perhaps also remove his ability to send and receive PMs.)

Read the post right above yours. Call T-Mobile.
YESSS - T-Mobile WILL give you the SIM unlock code
Just call them - I just did - and tell them you will be traveling and may need to use the phone on another network - they emailed me the code in about 1.5 hours!

[HELP] - HTC HD2 Sim-Unlock ???

Hi guys
I need your help to unlock my HTC HD2 (LEO) ???
Operator : Orange - France
The only way to unlock as of now
Well bro there is no free app available yet to unlock the phone you gotta get the code from the company your phone is branded to or try searching on EBAY , you'll find the cheapest code's here, I did via ebay itself..!!!
It costed me only 6.9 GBP..!!!
PS : - You have limited number of tries to enter the unlock code if you enter wrong code more than twice [I presume] your phone will be locked forever, so don't play around with that..!!!
One of our fellow XDA member has already got it trouble cause of that..!!!
So if you LOVE your LEO be careful..!!!

Well EBAY is definitely secure but according to ferraripassion you need to get it from your operator, I have no idea about that..!!!
Well just send a mail to any of those ebay sellers & tell them on which operator is your phone locked to & ask if it can be unlocked..!!!
Learn from my mistake!
I sent about $20 USD to http://www.mobileunlocked.co 2 days ago.
I immediately got one email telling me that instead of 5 minutes, it'd take 30 minutes!
That was the last communication I have received and I have gotten NO response from several emails sent to them in the mean time!

If your being paid then maybe offer money for help outside of xda, making money off the help people give for free is immoral.
However, it sounds like a bootloop. Has the client been flashing/rooting?

That matters, why?
@OP: Take battery out, then put in and turn on while holding volume down and let us know if you get a white screen with writing on it.
Look for S-ON or S-OFF. If it says S-OFF then you can fix this really easily.
Edit: As everyone is say "ZOMG CLOSES THIS THREADS OMG I AM TEH AWESOME!!!111ONE!!!!1111ELEVENTY". If some mod comes and closes it, because you dared to ask for help. Then feel free to PM me.

Where in this thread do you see that? Who said there awesome, and what does "1111ELEVENTY" have to do with anything.
If you're not willing to help people. Then don't spam up threads in which you're not willing to help in.
If the guy is getting paid, then good for him. He didn't come here and say "Client is asking me to fix this for money". You came here enquiring about money.
If you're so desperate for cash, go do something productive with your life.
Sorry? Have I offended you?
Spamming up threads? That must be what I'm doing with my time these days then.
As for doing something productive, you know virtually nothing about me, nor how much money I earn. If I was desperate for cash I'd probably have a "Donate to me" button next to my username and spam up threads.
I apologize if me asking for you assistance made other people argue but I am just a employee in service that repair mobile phones and other electronics. Witch means that I am not paid directly by the client. My kind of work might make me discover other solutions to other problems I would not have any problems sharing them to other people without caring why they need it.
I am sure that everybody in this forum works somewhere and many of you in the mobile business so many of you are being payed to do this.

You sir are pure win.
I don't know what's the point of the whole argument.
A guy posted a question asking for help on how to fix a client's phone. Who knows how many members of the xda are community are working on repair shops, who of course ask for money in return of their services?
If you're not willing to help then do yourself a favor and quit bashing the guy. Don't act as you're the only all-knowing guy who could fix his problem.

There is no need to apologise as you have done nothing wrong, aside from posting in the wrong section which wasn't a crime last time I checked.
I was never my intention to turn this thread into an argument, nor do I think I did. I never bashed the guy. If you read through 99%+ of my posts I do try to help people. Not act like an obnoxious child.
We (the community) would need more information to help you. Do you know how to access the bootloader? Did the client tell you what had happened prior to this problem. Has he/she rooted / modified the handset.
HERE is a similar thread from the info we have so far. The problem was solved. Try following this thread to see if that solves your problem too.

It turned out that the owner of the phone had been playing (flashing/rooting) with the phone.
So yes it was a bootloop and I fixed it.
