Default Sim Unlock for S-OFF Aria!

Seems someone has discovered how to generate sim unlock codes for HTC devices. Found this over on the Vivid forum, but tried it with my Aria and it seems to work (gotta try it out with my friends T-Mo SIM tomorrow to be sure):

Tested it and it worked perfectly.

Edit: It seems that it only works for certain networks - Didn't work with a T-Mobile SIM card, but it did work with a PureGSM SIM.

Default Textural success too

It worked, in as much as it matched the output of the original thread's output. If I get my hands on a different SIM, I'll report actual success...

Are you S-OFF? You must be S-OFF and currently only AlpharevX or an XTC clip are known to gain S-OFF on the Aria.

Actually, I was mistaken. Alpharev.nl is deprecated and Revolutionary.io is the preferred (only?) software S-OFF for Aria.

So I got a chance to try it with a co-workers T-Mo SIM and it didn't work even though all the screen messages looked right. Oh Well.
