Hello guys,
Here is a method (confirmed working by Binary) to SIM Unlock your HTC Amaze for other SIM cards for use on other GSM networks.
Before we begin I wish to inform you that I did not create this tool. It is the property of sieempi.
You MUST be S-OFF for this to work.
Usual disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. Use this mod at your own risk.
Instructions:
1) Go to this site: http://www.sieempi.eu/blog/2011/09/22/universal-sim-unlock-for-s-offed-htc-devices-536
2) You'll notice that the HTC Amaze is not listed in the supported devices, but the process does work.
3) Supply a valid IMEI and email address on the form on that page and where it says "Phone Type" put HTC Amaze 4G, and they will email you a Config.Dat file to put on the root of your external SD card.
4) Reboot into bootloader, select "SIMLock" and it'll apply the config file.
5) Follow the instructions on the phone and reboot when it tells you to. If you get an "OpenCID File Fail" error, this is normal, proceed anyway!
6) Once you've rebooted, your Amaze should be fully SIM Unlocked!
7) Put in a foreign SIM card and test it out
8) For data to work, you will need to configure that network's APN settings. Use this thread (thanks hasoon2000) for APN settings for the specific carrier: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1428457
If you have any questions, please refer to the linked site as I will be limited in how I can help since I am not the original creator of the tool.

Binary - for sharing the site that has the tool and for risking his device to make sure it works (THANKS!!! )
