head over to xda-developers, the procedure to sim-unlock the phone is different from custom rom flashing.

Hi. I want to SIM unlock my HTC HD and read somewhere else that it needed first to be flashed to stock or USPL 1.56 or 1.54. I can’t remember well but watching your tutorial here I saw that you had the same 1.54.0000 as me and I had the same Dutty’s Rom, I think it says 1.56 as SPL as well. So I wanted to know which steps of your tutorial I need to follow and also if I can flash or do it all on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
Thanks

MSVC is basically Microsoft Voice Command, and CSVD is an equivalent of that, from Cyberon. Depending on whether you need one or not, you can choose the one with or without.

btw, you need to upgrade your SPL to 1.56. Your stock SPL will cause display problem later on if you upgrade your ROM w/o the appropiate SPL.

yes, it’s okay to leave stock 1.56SPL there (assuming you are flashing your ROM using USPL method)

radio flash is optional unless you have problem with reception, and you would look for newer version of radio to improve it.

Thanks for the reply. So, I assume it’s ok to leave the stock 1.56 SPL in there.

I’ve posted another question on Mobinaut too about flashing the radio. Is this really necessary? I dare not ‘mod’ my phone too much in case I don’t know how to retract..

if you are using USPL method to flash ROM to your HD, you don’t need to flash back to stock SPL, since it’s already in your device.

Flashing of SPL is the same procedure as flashing the ROM, as it’s still a image flashing activity, except that the size of the SPL image is small (less than 1MB)
