Hey everyone, I'm new here so thank you all in advance for the Help.
I've recently acquired an HTC Diamond GSM phone. I live here in America and the phone was regionalized on a french carrier so I began my search on how to flash the firmware, thus ,hopefully, unlocking it. I stumbled across this site and after hours of reading the forums I was ready to try the three step process described on the [TUT] tutorial. I upgraded to Olinex 1.40 SPL, that worked flawlessly. Then I upgraded the radio to 1.0.25.23, worked. Finally I updated the ROM to DIAMING Ultimate xxxx I know its based off the 2.0.3 official. That also worked great. Mind you I was doing all this without a sim in the phone. Now it was time to put my SIM in the phone and get started right?
*** Side note*** My previos phone was a Sony Ericcson w810i that I also needed to flash/unlock. My SIM has worked perfectly in this phone for 2-3 years.
When I boot up the phone with my SIM in it get all the way to the Windows Mobile Desktop when it pops up with "Network Locked, Please Enter Unlock Code," or something to that effect. I went to my ATT account website and got a PUK code that supposedly unlocks your SIM for you, however I entered it twice and it didn't work. (I was told 10 straight failure locks your SIM permanently So i dind't go any further).
Basically I'd like to know what I've done wrong, or is there something I'm not understanding. Thanks again
