Hiya,
I've recently bought an Orange HTC hero off ebay
Searching around there seem to be several ways to get around the simlock:
i) Buy a RebelSim
ii) Flash to a Non Orange Rom and buy a unlockcode
iii) Unlock CID lock with bespoke serial cable and buy an unlock code
iv) ??
I'm not so keen on chopping my simcard or option 1 would be the way to go?
option 3 seems the least destructive but I've never been great with a soldering iron!!
is there another option (iv?) ive not yet found or your experiences on the above would be helpfull
Thanks
(ii) is probably the easiest, but before parting with your cash, check that you can definitely get the code for your device. As far as I'm aware http://www.htccode.com does not have problems with Orange phones anymore as long as you've flashed the ROM to something else.
Regards,
Dave
i tryed now to flash generic rom (update-hero-generic-1.76.405.6-signed.zip) i have nandroid, after i flashed rom with goldcard, i also bought the code, but when i enter the code it say sim unlock sucsesful, but is no service.

just a quick one, you did try an orange sim in it didnt you>? make sure its not blacklisted?
checked it
I used a checkmend report before purchase to verify it was legit
There just seem to be specific issues with the orange heros and unlocking
Have a look over that, something about the orange original software stopping the unlock from working,

You may want to read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708962&page=1which is more up to date then this and speaks of the current easy way to unlock a Hero on Orange includes a link to eBay where you can purchase an unlock code.
Hello
As im new to the world of Android ( not that im an expert in the windows mobile department) i would like your enlightment
I just bought my Hero today, unfortunately locked on Orange..I've heard rumours that those on orange cant be unlocked etc..and i tried a couple of unlocker shops that told me they cant do it..i've found one that told me he can and just wait 2-3 days..
lets say i decide to do it myself..What are my options??What do i have to do??
Can you give me specific instructions on just to unlock my sim and nothing else??
Thank you
You will need to buy an unlock code from a website.
Then you will most probably need to downgrade your rom. Use the link to BTDAG's guide in my signature for step by step instructions.
Then when you insert a non-orange sim card in it will ask you to input the code.
DONE!
Hi
I bought m2 on polsich ebay alternative the description says that is should be simlock free
Previous ovner says that he check the phone with few sims from my country ant wth few foreign ones and it works with him.
With my 3 sims from difrent networks it demands from me " SIM network unlock PIN"
At the begining phone has 2.2 English Vodaphone brand
I check it wit every cyanogenmod on this forum and ithat problem don't go away
now i'm traying sbf files but the chances are small.
I't is posible that when I put my sim card the simlock came back
Is there a way to get rid of this probelm without some simlock imei code calculator website? google says that it may or may not work.
I don't now why simlock came back but this site help me unlock my phone again
unlock.vodafone.com.au
