i called verizon and requested to have my sim unlocked on my device. the first rep transferred me to someone in a higher tier of tech support - and he gave me a 6 or 7 digit (or something like that) code. he directed me to the "sim security" setting. i typed in the code, and i now have a message that reads "your hone is SIM unlocked".

the rep told me verizon was now NOT responsible for any charges or quality issues that result from me using another sim card.

so -

1 - what exactly did i accomplish here?

2 - do i still need to go through this "sim unlocker" process that cmonex is offering?

I have the same question. It seems like Verizon users will only benefit from unlocking in the ability to use radios from other phones.

I pay to security unlock my phone and then I flash the new radio (Sprint).

- What happens if I reflash the phone every week? I'm helping beta test a new ROM and one of the things we do is reflash the stock ROM before we flash new versions. Do all I do is reflash stock, flash new, then flash the unlocked radio again?

- For the utility that they send to me for my phone, can I rerun that utility on that SAME phone unlimited times if needed? Or does the unlock happen on the SIM itself so it's only done one time?

- If I have to RMA the phone for any reason, can this security be relocked, like the relocker will do for the SPL when it is released? Or will that do both?

Thanks!!!

If you're just flashing ROM's it wouldn't matter...once you're unlocked (HSPL) then you're set...you can flash to your hearts content...without having to run the hspl again...

There is a relocker...not sure if that's been posted yet...you should contact cmonex for that.

Confirming this worked great on verizon phone. For new subscribers or those not using verizon this unlocks sim. Codes had been unavailable for many tp2s. Looking for link to setup for tmobile and verizon.

Do I need to be to Security/CID unlocked to repair my ESN? With my Touch Pro, all I had to do was install the HSPL and set CID to all zeros... any different for TP2? Please delete if inappropriate.

i have to chime in and give my 2 cents here

this licensing proccess was set up very poorly. Im out of town where internet access is harder than usual so i paid for and downloaded it from my phon browser. Made somebody get off the computer at my moms house so i could "unlock my phone real quick" just to be denied because im using it on a different computer than i bought it on. wow.

This is entirely because of you. Why did you do it through your phone browser? No where does it recommend using your phone to purchase any of this. Was it absolutely necessary to unlock while your away from your home comp? Are you really going to be flashing while your traveling? Plus solutions to this problem have already been posted.

Seems like you just got anxious and had to have it, rather than waiting until an opportune time.

NO WHERE on this page does it say or warn you should purchase, download, and flash from the same computer
http://rhodiumw.htc-unlocks.com/

ALSO the reason i did it like this is because i did not know the pc you flashed it from had to be connected to the internet so i downloaded it to my phone to transfer to my laptop (no wifi where i was) and was gonna flash it that way. didnt work. So i found a ethernet and tried again and get the verification error.

and yes i have to flash on the road, I'm on leave for over 2 weeks, changing duty station with family so even when i arrive at my next base i wont instantly have a house, or my household goods to flash from my regular desktop. if you must know.


I fthis was free i wouldnt even be mad right now but I paid $25 for a instant download service that i cant even use. they really need to put this in the instructions. (not everyone has home internet access, some people tether from their phone 24/7).

This only says to me that you should've waited the two weeks until you got settled. And if you actually did download directly to your laptop while tethering, it would've worked normally. The way your accessed the internet is not the problem... rather that you purchased it using one computer (the phone) then tried to unlock using another (your mom's). So technically, you could've unlocked two phones if this licensing wasn't in place.
