Locked as in cant even get into it... or locked like 90% of phones from carriers are to only use their services?
Please move this to Q&A forum, this should not be in dev.

I think you should just stop and not root your phone just from looking at how you've asked this question twice in the same section as well as in the dev section.
Having a rooted phone doesn't make you cooler or give you special powers no matter what your friends told you, trust me.

Well seeing how I'm 15 and (and starting football and powerlifting camp today) building my own roms and a tester for TeamRoyal it can't be too hard but really to the OP you can't post multiple times, its a good way to get your question dismissed by the community. But to actually answer your question, the easiest would probably be the gfree method which is stickied in the development page.

I agree the same. At least try to keep the thing in only one post.
To root my MyTouch 4G took me over a week, of reading extensive posts here on XDA. Until i got it with the Link that i Posted on your last Discussion.
So every step, from the beginning, slowly. When you see that something is not going right, stop, and tell us Exactly what is happening
And yes, PERMROOT Wont give you special powers to show offf to your friends. Most likely if you do something wrong, say bye to that phone or have ready 100 $ to pay someone to fix it for you.
I just want root to install custom roms. I had a Samsung vibrant before and it was so easy to root.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
You people are funny with the whole root giving power thing, but I swear root gave me +100hp and eng hboot gave +100mp extra. But ya rooting is easy and you don't even need a PC. Story behind it...
I lost my HD2 (Leo1024) as it was my first dev-phone so I heavily modded it and few had personal things I never even released to public so now some prick walking around with it. When this happened dual core based phone the LG-Opt2x and Moto-Atrix (dual core) was still 4months behind and I couldn't wait for it so next best thing I got was MT4G (spec wise DHD-US model), so week before I got MT4G I did total run down from known issues with MT4G to root, ect. So I walk in to the TMoStore and the rep try to "sell" me MT4G so I told the guy save yourself some trouble I already know about the device and so we can skip all this BS and wanted to for it direct.
So I told him to open the box so I can verify it was superior display (by then we already knew about inferior SH model). So he started asking other silly questions how hard it was rooting and back then the meth was lil weird as you needed battery pull. Since I lost my phone they verified my account and gave me a new simcard free and provisioned my line on the spot. So I downloaded all the files needed from my phone for TheUnlockr meth to SDCard and rooted it in front of him using TempROOT (VISIONary+) and PermROOT (root.sh).
So what exactly is the easiest way?

Follow the TheUnlockr meth which takes 1min to root using VISIONary+ to obtain TempROOT and when you have it you can get PermROOT by running root.sh script.

Use that one. IS the easiest and asured way!!! One more time;.. you dont ned to ADB files, you barely need a PC only to transfer like ONE file to your SD card, y even told you what App to use instead the PAID app ( root Explorer).
Why better not ask to send your phone to someone and root it for free?!

well generally i think he means by placing the phone on another carrier or he may mean by changing the msl code which is different for each sprint phone unlike verizion which uses 000000 for all phones. I do not think he means about rooting.

To answer the OPs question,yes it can be unlocked. I had to unlock it when I flashed one to boost.
Can the T-Mobile HTC Mytouch 4g be unlocked to used with different carriers with out having to go to those paid for service sites ?
if yes how ?
if not, whats the best recommended site and cheapest .
Thanks in advance.
I am not quite sure what exactly you are saying but yes, you can get it simunlocked and just use a different sim card. Use the search bar next time, ok?

Check the stickies in the development section dude, you'll find your free method there. Just remember that it's not always a simple solution and anything you do to your phone is at your own risk. Fortunately instructions around here tend to be very helpful

By the way, you can unlock it for free. Whenever you root it, & flash Engineering bootloader, you can unlock it with gfree, in fact if you follow the guide for Ultimate s-off, it explains all those commands in gfree for locking & unlocking whatever you choose.

no rooting doesn't SIM unlock the device. You must do that via a ./gfree command.

I've been pretty unhappy with tmobile lately. So I suppose if I have to ask them then so be it, but is there an easier way to do it without calling a guy? Or paying money? I kind of thought rooting it would be the same as unlocking it.

no, if you unlock with T-Mobile, you don't need to pay...just make sure you've been with them for at least 2 months
