Hi,
need some help, i have a compact two and for some reason out of the blue it has requested a pin code? Is there a generic code to use as i certainly have not ever set a pin code for the phone? My only explanation could be someone has been as a** and changed it when i have not been looking!
Regards
Pete
in addition
Just to add to the message i have tried a hard reset and it still requesting the code
sims have a pug code which will reset the pin code
contact your phone company for what it is and how to reset it
if it's too hard on the pocketpc just put the sim card in another phone and do it there
Thanks for that, it doesn't appear to be the sim lock though, i take sim out of phone and put it in another and it works fine, the mda however still requests a pin code even without a sim?
i never owned a simlocked phone but
i always had it so i had to type in the sim if i restarted my phones
so ppl could not use them if they stole it
here i think it's std that you have to type in the pin code
but you can make it renember it so you dont have to
i just always choosed not to for safety
and when i was drunk and forgot the pin code and tried too many times
and it locked the sim
i called the phone company and they sendt me the pug code and i could reset the sim lock
mind you with a locked phone it's the phone which is locked in your case it's the sim 2 very different things
only way is to know the code or the reset it using the pug code
or return the phone and sim to the guy you stole it from jk
got the 8 digit code, how do i enter it into the phone, as at the mo, my phone is not locked... i want to unlock it before i play round with it.....
help
get another sim card not from your locked service provider....any other service provider will do. Turn it on, and if it asks for it, enter it, if not, then your cell phone is unlocked.....
re above
cheers, i didnt know if you had to put some godforsaken code in like with the nokia's
again cheers
I have looked into what this could mean, and finding that I have a pin on my sim but I dont
I can put my sim in my origonal device and works fine
this phone has been flashed with 2 roms both no signal only the 2nd rom was giving me this message at top of screen
one thing though, I am having to enter the sim unlock(phone lock from Three) code every time I reboot the phone, I obtained this code using the famous term emulater and running that specific string, this code enters fine and says
SSIM network unlock PIN, enters code, then gets - SIM Network unlock successful
any ideas
Forgot to add, if I go to settings, security, setup SIM/RUIM card lock
I click lock sim card and specify a code
Then tells me it cant because there already is one
I can choose Change SIM PIN, by entering the old one (12345? guess) then a new one
I have 1 attempt remaing before I have to contact my phone carrier
Phone is from 3 Mobile but my Sim is from O2, if I put this sim into my origonal device there is no PIN
Any ideas?

I would follow the other method on that guide and SIM unlock that way. It will be 100% successful and then you will know if your SIM card has a pin lock or if your device is having trouble. Remember that you need to be on gingerbread firmware to use the diag.nbh so search the forums and read up before you act

Hello. Half a year i bought D6603 that was connected to some uk provider, the man i bought from had unlock code. So on first run we inserted sim that is not acceptable, so it asked for unlock code, after code was inserted, sim lock was unlocked.
Now, i had a problem with my phone, so i brought ir to repair center, after all fixes they reinstalled OS , and after that, now i cant use my sim card. i wanted to insert that code again that i have, but it not allows it. when i go to that "secret" menu of sony, in sim card section i see all parameters are 0, so that means that enabling all simcards by code are disabled.
Please help, how i can unlock my phone, that i could use my own sim card? I have that unlock code, but i can't insert it and unlock.
Thanks.
P.S. now i have tried to hard reset it as it shown in this video:
youtube.com/watch?v=4al5k-mooc8
after this "hardreset", in secret menu , sim lock tab shows not zeros anymore, but unknown error.
Hi guys,
a friend of mine told me that your are the only persons they maybe can help me....i really hope so!
I bought a S8+ which is A1 Mobilkom Austria locked. As i want it with a another carrier "3 Hutchison Austria" i ordered a sim unlock Code from a third Party Company. After i got the Code i tried that like the instruction says:
#####################################
Instructions to release your SM-G955F Galaxy S8 Plus
1. - Turn on the handset on with a SIM card not accepted by the device (your new network operator)
2. - If the card has a PIN number, enter it and press OK.
3. - The device will prompt: “Network lock”, Now enter XXXXXXXX and press OK.
4. - Your phone will indicate: "The operation was successful", becoming permanently unlocked.
Minor code: If the code in step 3 does not work, type the code XXXXXXXX and press Unlock, the phone will indicate Unlock fail, now dial the code again from step 3.
######################################
I really don´t know if i did something wrong...after 3times it is locked now.
After that i am getting this message now "SIM Network PIN blocked. Enter SIM Network PUK" - But now the Problem Begins. I tried to put in the PUK Code um my 3 Hutchison Sim Card but that was
unsuccessfull. So it seems it doenst men the PUK of the sim, it means the PUK of the network lock.
Do i have to contact A1 for that Code? That would cost me 150€ and tehy will give me the sim unlock Code. But i do not Need the sim unlock Code, i need the PUK unlock Code....so maybe
i buy it but i alos do net get the PUK Code.
What can i do now?
Pleeeeeease help me!!
P.S. I am from Austria, vienna - Sorry for my not perfect english
Thanks in advance
martin
Whoah, take it easy...
You title says, "S8+ blocked after trying to unlock". But your description says that your SIM card is PUK blocked?
If the phone boots perfectly without any cards in, then the SIMcard is blocked. Then you need to order a new SIM card for the new carrier, cus you cannot unlock a SIMcard that has been PUK blocked...
It feels like you type the Carrier unlock code instead of the PIN for the SIMcard?

Thats the Problem. I have the PUK Code from my 3 Hutchison SIM Card but that one does not work. I took this sim Card and put it into a another phone which is unlocked and it worked fine. So it can´t be the simcard PUK. If it should be the simcard PUK, then the sim Card wouldnt work in a another phone , right?
I tried few minutes ago a anonther 3 Hutchison sim Card from a collegue (he has the sim pin and the Sim PUK with him) and it also doesnt work!
Thats really weird, it sounds like the SIM PUK ( i know the error message Sound like that) but it means the Network PUK.
I think there should be a another Code ewhich you Need, if yout put the carrier unlock wrong into the phone...
thanks in advance

1.) This means you again tried to unlock the phone 3 times with your friend's 3-SIM card and again ended with the PUK message?
2.) Or did the PUK message appear right from the start with the other 3-SIM in?
If 1. then looks like the bought unlock PIN is not working at all.
If 2. then
-->
Do you know anyone who could borrow you an A1 SIM card for a test, who has also a PUK available?
OK, finally my phone is working with the 3 Hutchison sim Card now
Solution:
I ordered a new unlock code which includes a UNFREEZE Code from a another company. I was telling them my problem and the told me it should be the unfreeze code which i was needed.
After typing the unfreeze code into my phone it asks me for the net unlock code...i typed the new net unlock code into my phone and i can use all cards now!
Thanks for your support guys :good:

I have the same problem, my phone is asking me for the
"Sim network PIN. Enter SIM network PUK."
Wich company did you use to get the code? help me!! haha
I used sim-unlock.at (Austrian Company) but you just need a company who also provides you the unfreeze code with the netlock code.
Some company just send you the netlock code, some are sending you a pack of codes...
Hope this will help you
I also have the same problem but I'm in Ghana, can my service provider help me provide me with the unfreeze code, I really need help, really cost me much to get this phone, Please help me, Phone keep asking me for a PUK even with a new SIM card in it

What is this file?
Will it brake the warranty?
Or need to be rooted?
