[Q] Flashing and simlock - Surround General

Hi,
I am getting a Surround which was on AT&T with a simlock, but now it has been unlocked using a code. Now if I flash a rom onto this device, will it get locked again? If yes do you know how i can unlock it again?

[Q] Upgrading/Downgrading...will it lock my phone again?

once you carrier unlock (Sim unlock) using a legitimate unlock code, upgrading/downgrading will not re-lock your phone.
so do whatever you want, enjoy!

Bootloader question

Hi. I'm new here and I would like to ask few questions:
I bought my phone from Rogers and it came LT15a_2.3.2, 3.0.A.2.181_Rogers firmware. When I checked if the bootloader can be unlocked, I couldn't see anything because there wasn't this menu. I flashed LT15a arc_v2.3.4, 4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic America and now it says Bootloader unlock not allow.
I have rooted my phone.
My questions:
1) What do you suggest me to do? to try to unlock the bootloader? What are the risks?
2) To reflash old rom and unlock bootloader and after that to flash a custom Rom?
Thank you.
if your carrier wont allow bootloader to be unlocked i think only option is to use test point to unlock the bootloader.
it is a paid for service search forum as there are,2 members here who will offer this service

1) find someone with setoolbox and pay for unlocking (no free way), you can also do it over the web. check this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1304634
there are ways with wotan server or omnius, but not sure about them, what they actually do. i think they only remove SIM lock and then you still need to unlock bootloader with ether official or s1tool method.
2) flashing back old fw won't help you

Just give it a try and attempt to unlock your bootloader.Nothing must go wrong if you follow the official way of unlocking the bootloader.If your is unlocked then its very good and if doesnt then try the other way out i.e., find someone who can unlock the phone using se-tool

[Q] UICC SIM unlock and flashing Custom ROMS

Guys,
sprint just unlocked my phone for international use. I want to flash now a custom ROM . Will i loose the unlock if i flash a ROM or is it a permanent unlock?
Thanks
Hello,
No- you will not lose the unlock. I have flashed several ROM's since my international unlock from Sprint and I am still unlocked.
Yes that's what it is. Thanks man
