[MOD][S-OFF] SIM Unlock Your HTC Amaze!

---

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/2011/09/2...tc-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://forum.xda-developers.com/show....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.

Credits:
Adrian Campeanu (sieempi) - for the tool, because you know, it's his intellectual property and stuff
Binary - for sharing the site that has the tool and for risking his device to make sure it works (THANKS!!! )

PS. I encourage donations to the tool maker who actually created this tool. You can find his donation button on the linked unlocking site.

I've decided to re-open this thread. I'm doing so, with the understanding that rules will be followed, and that there won't be any flaming, disruptive behavior, or nonsense. If for any reason, it starts up again, I will not hesitate to close and delete this thread.

With that said, have fun everybody, and behave yourselves!

~Danny

Alright, so anyone who's SIM unlocked their phone so far, report your feedback please. I don't have a foreign SIM that activated to test it out.

It actually worked. Thanks so much.

Yes, I removed the link, and you know why. Please don't bring drama to these forums.
