Network locked??

---

Is there any way to tell if my un-rooted one x is network locked without having to try another sim card in it?
I don't have another micro-sim to try and i just wondered anyway.
I have no obvious signs of branding on my handset which came pre-installed with 1.26.401.2

I think you should be able to tell by checking the CID. Go here:

And follow the instructions in the first post to get your CID number. I think if it starts "HTC" then your phone is carrier-unlocked, as the carrier branding is usually part of the CID. Certainly the WWE "HTC__001" is carrier-unlocked. But there's a list here you can check:

And usually the carrier-branded phones have loads of bloatware installed. So if your phone is bloatware free, it's probably generic.

One of the advantages of getting the phone early is that you're more likely to get an unbranded one - I did, and the same happened with my DHD. Got to be some advantages to paying more when the phone is so new!

Fastboot getvar cid generates...cid none


EDIT Found cid with a market app. It's HTC__001. Should be ok?

Try this instead:

adb shell
getprop ro.cid

Thanks. That worked.
