Hi guys,
I'm from indonesia, I bought HTC 802d in china last week. Before buying, i asked the sales person specifically if both the CDMA and GSM are unlocked. They said yes they are unlocked. I only brought my roaming GSM card and it worked just fine. Didnt bring my CDMA sim.
Came back to jakarta, put in CDMA sim and it said no service. FYI, i checked the cdma freq between indonesia and china, and they share the same frequency. So, i guess that the Sim 1 CDMA slot is being carrier locked by China Telecom.
I had followed all the intructions thats available in XDA, from unlocking bootloader, flashing recovery found on chinese web, installing ROM from chinese web, got my blinkfeed working in english, facebook & twitter also worked. Even perform S-Off using moonshine.
However, the sim1 slot is still showing "No Service".
Please help me with your expert advice. I need to get the CDMA working as soon as possible as the GSM part is only running on 2G and its internet is sooooooooo slowwwwwww....:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Thank your for your time and attention
No body have any idea?

I doubt I can help, here in the USA the CDMA is never locked and doesn't use a SIM card. On this side of the pond, only GSM uses a sim card. The CDMA phones that have a sim card here, is because the 4G LTE technology is a GSM, so their sim card is for LTE only.

Actually the above worked for me. After rooting and editing the build.prop the phone can connect to a CDMA network in Indonesia just fine. The only eyesore is that the carrier name doesn't show, it only shows its carrier code.

I'm in China at the moment and ended up picking up one of these today (HTC DESIRE 609d) which i was told was unlocked. 1 Sim card however seems to be locked to china telecom.
You managed to remove the lock? So I need to find a special DEV rom? if so could you please send me a link or point me in the right direction? Im a bit of a noob...
Cheers, Phil.
Hi guys! I also unlocked 1-st slot but it works only GSM card. my cdma R-UIM not work for this slot. Befor unlocking first slot I edited device nam settiongs with DFS. When I put GSM card to slot one and select cdma mode, phone use setting from device and pick up signal. but not incoming and outgoing calls (because there is no registered number to carrier). But in the DFS I choose "Only R-UIM" but phone not read the R-uim card. How can I unlock first slot to use my carrier R-uim card. (my carrier PerfectumMobile-Uzbekistan)

I am trying to unlock the Sprint HTC one's sim card so it can be used with a international sim card. Sprint has sent me numerous emails detailing my phone has been unlocked on their end, and i do know for a fact that the config was pushed to the phone (had a friend at sprint check this for me) but the phone remains SIMLock Enabled.
My theory is, if i flash a GSM rom, and insert my international sim card, hopefully it would prompt me for the Sim Unlock code. Right now in a sprint rom, it simply states SIMLock enabled and does not give us any optino to enter an unlock code. I would assume that the unlock is stored in NV memory and would survive a reflash of a different rom.
So my question are:
1. can I even flash a GSM based rom from the HTC One Section?
2. Will I be able to get back to a sprint based rom afterwards?
3. Can I harm anything by attempting this?
Thanks in advance.
Sprint One is CDMA, you can't flash GSM rom.
You will brick your one...

Sorry, but what do you mean for Sim Unlock Box?
Are you talking about the pin or you have a SimLock branded phone?
If you have a simlock branded phone, i'm not sure that you can unlock this with an interntional rom.
However, i think no.
Kernel are different...
The Sprint One is a CDMA phone with LTE bands (this is what requires the sim card). The phone does NOT have the hardware to connect to a gsm/wcdma network. So, even if you could sim-unlock the phone, an international (or any other carrier's) sim will not allow the phone to connect to any other network/carrier.
The Sprint One will ONLY connect to the Sprint network.

Yes, its completely LOCKED. No CDMA, No GSM working for 1st slot at the roaming. Changing any settings are not a subject. 2nd GSM slot is working fine. We need S-off and Sim unlocker...

Good news! It is possible and very easy to unlock first slot for GSM cards. Not sure regarding CDMA cards, but should work also. It needs just installed adb and rooted device.
1. Enable USB debugging option
2. Open shell or command prompt and enter the following commands
Code:
adb shell
su
setprop persist.radio.simlock.enable 0
reboot
After reboot it just works!

YES the solution works perfect on HTC 802D China telecom & Desire 609D china telecom
but the only drawback is the handset locks up again if You hard reset
802d
Hi All,
Am using dual SIM (CDMA+GSM) for over 4 years now - Z510d, S710 and now 802D.
802D have dual lock, 1 the 1st SIM is locked to China Telecom CDMA, but when you are outside China, the 1st SIM supports local CDMA, SIM unlock does support GSM as well as 3G.
There is also another lock, only 1 SIM support GPRS/EVDO, but this is only if you are in China, if outside, it supports on both SIM.
If you are foreigner (I suppose all of you are), China Telecom itself unlocks for you without any additional fees. Your warranty dont be void, dont root/fiddle with the nice machine, I just spent 1,000 RMB (160 USD) to fix my board, you either Brick or semi-brink, only way to fix is go back to HTC, wrong flashing burns your cables, which result in MYHTC drivers not working.
There are plenty of professionals who do the Unlocking (mostly for foreigners) online for a nominal charge of 20 to 50 RMB (2.5 to 8 USD).
Please use their service, some engineers have english support, you dont need do anything, connect PC to Phone with their provided SW (teamView) and they do the rest....

Hello dear,
I want to point out that slot 1 is CDMA and slot 2 is GSM and both slots r locked.
Abroad, you will not be able to use this phone for their local SIM CARDS.
when u say that u unlock 1st slot for GSM, does it mean that u can put a GSM card in first slot and it work???
or u can put other SIM CARD in respected slots and it works.
Await ur reply,

Second slot is not locked at all. First slot is locked. Solution that I posted in this thread allows to unlock it for GSM. For CDMA it works also on old ROMs, but in modern versions it may need additional changes in configs.

The unlock works 100%. If you don't see "SIMLock enabled" than it was successful. Probably the phone doesn't support your phone's frequencies. Don't jump directly to the last solution, read the thread thouroughly

Please heeelp me
Delete your IMEI please, it's not wise showing it to everybody. If you did get s-off and than downgraded, did you root your phone and than tried the "Sprint HTC One SIM unlock helper" app? What did the app say? I'm sure you didn't do some steps otherwise your phone would be unlocked. Hundreds of people have unlocked their phone this way. If the "SIMLock" message doesn't go away you probably don't have a sprint one
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
The Sprint HTC one has blocked the carrier id's for domestic use aka att etc.. You can however if your s-off you can flash the initial release radio the first radio when the Sprint HTC was released and it will allow you to connect to domestic carriers. Here is the first radio released http://d-h.st/HHD I can pick up T-Mobile and att using the initial release radio, it is the only radio I could get to pick up signal with. The radio may be the reason your thinking that its not working, With any other radio you will get no signal and no networks avail. Your probably unlocked if you followed what elvisypi said, your just using the wrong radio. I would try flashing that radio and see what happens, I am in Ohio so i am using domestic carriers. Also make sure there bands in your area are covered.

Follow the guide posted above. After unlocking it you might have issue when connecting to other carrier s network so be sure they are using compatible frequencies. I'm almost sure you will not be able to connect it to any other CDMA carrier. Normally CDMA carriers will not accept a phone on their network if not sold by them.
Next time if you are planning to switch carriers, buy a gsm phone, much easier! even with a locked gsm phone, you'll only need to sim-unlock the phone with a purchased code then put in any gsm sim card.
Sorry I can't help you more, I'm not familiar with the WLS variant.

Hello,
I recently acquired from ebay a used Sprint HTC One M7 for cheap because the guy couldn't unlock it.
I followed all the tutorials and guides here, and got the phone unlocked, TWRP recovery and SuperSU flashed, S-OFF, and a custom rom (Viper) flashed on it successfully.
I am from France and my network operator is Free.fr. I used both the *#*#4636#*#* and the Mobile settings to enable GSM and the phone, SMS, and 3G data are all working properly.
However, my operator allows for 4G LTE as well and I would like to use it if possible, while retaining the use of the Phone itself (making calls, texts etc).
The way it works for Free.fr is that I have to login on their website, and enable 4G manually. The server will then check if my phone has 4G LTE compatibility and enable it if it does, but everytime I try it tells me my phone is not 4G ready.
Is there anyway to do this? A guide or tutorial out there perhaps?
edit: more info:
It seems I need 2600 MHz frequency for 4G to work with my operator, could it be that the Sprint version cannot handle this? Any solutions?

Yeah :/ the Sprint HTC One only supports the 1900MHz for LTE. There aren't any solutions afaik, unless you might want to do a hardware mod, and doing hardware mods on an One is near-impossible.. so you're out of luck.

Ah well, that's alright, at the price I got it for it's still worth it even without 4G. Thanks for the reply!

Hi, could you share your experience of sim unlock the device?
my phone is on 1.57 hboot. I s-off it and RUU to 1.19 firmware. Android 4.1.2. Then I install latest TWRP and Super SU 2.0
Then I download the "sprint htc one sim unlock helper" , select sim unlock.
phone reboot. select " GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto" in *#*#4636#*#*"
Now when I insert my AT&T sim card. it pop up to select carreir, I choose "AT&T", I also choose "GSMUMTS only" in network moode. Also set up ATT APN.
now iin Phone indentity, I could see my phone number,
But there is no signal for the phone at all...
Could you told me your way of doing the sim unlock? Thanks.

I did exactly what you did and I had signal. I am from France so I don't know about AT&T though. With my French operator it works fine now.
