Hi there, I have the V1615 (Kaiser) and I have locked myself out of it. I put the 4 digit lock code on just as a stuff you to my very suspicious ex girlfriend and forgotten what the code is. I put the 4 digit code on as opposed to the strong alphanumeric code option it has because I thought I would remember it. I would've remembered it if I didn't change it every other day. Is there anyway of getting this lock off or hard resetting to remove the code? The discs I got with the phone don't seem to be much help.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you for your help.

hey everyone, i have cracked the top of my screen of my orbit the problem is that i had it pin protected and put it in wrong too many times, the keypad shows up, so i am guessing its asking me to type something, dose anyone know what this is, if i can unlock my phone i can read my text messages as the bottom of the screen still functions. I have not changed the boot or anything from the stuff the o2 shipped with it
thanks in advance
After too many pin entry attempts, the phones usually ask for a PUK code. But be careful, after too many PUK entry attempts your SIM is going to stay locked for good.
I purchased an unlocked t mobile htc hd2 from e-bay. everything works but when i try to set up my internet after the apn screen it has user name then password i put in the required info from my provider and each time i try it has no connection. i go back and my user name is still intact but the 4 letter password keeps changing back to a 16 letter/number password i have tried many times and with the same result each time. is the password locked in by t mobile? is there a way to remove this? HEX editing? ANY HELP ? i have no clue plus my service privider will not help at all they said they dont sell this phone and have no idea ect ect.... i finally got the correct input info from the tech support over the phone after threating to pull the 8 year old plug and go elsewhere (DONT WANT TO CHANGE PROVIDER REALLY) my only problem is the password keeps going back the the 16 letter one rather than my 4 letter one. if i need to do any editing what software do i need ? PLZ HELP IF SOMEONE KNOWS. THANKS SO MUCH.
I somehow locked my SIM and have no idea how I did it and therefore how to unlock it. Thought I was setting up a 4 digit pin, and upon entry it is asking for 8 digits. I have no idea what the PUK code is supposed to be and used up a couple guesses just in case it was the obvious; have 3 tries left before I imagine I'm locked out permanently...?
Any way around this to clear PW or some other work around?

You can see your PUK code in your my verizon account. Also it tells you the default SIM pin, 1111. Just log in and press manage my device on the main screen, and its over on the right under "About my device"
Didn't realize I hadn't yet replied though I thanked you. Found it and issue is resolved. Much appreciated!
I have a Galaxy s4. My 4 year old was playing with it yesterday and it is now locked. I had a swipe protection on it and he did it so many times that it went to 'enter a pin code". I have NO idea what the pin code is! So I spoke with Verizon and Samsung and they gave me different generic codes to use and none of which worked. So they told me to use google device manager. I was able to locate the phone. It rang when I hit ring. So they told me to lock it. I typed in a new password and confirmed it. My screen lit up with a lock screen. I entered the password and it said "entered unsuccessfully". I tried using a password with a cap...then we tried with just numbers...then we tried with just letters and no caps... nothing worked. and now the pin code screen is not coming up. Just the locked by device manager is.
We took the SIM card out and it still rang and we tried a new password and that didn't work.
I have no idea what I am missing. I don't want to have to reset because I will loose over half of my contacts and word docs and pics. (I don't use backup and I don't have an SD card)
Thank you for any help anyone can offer!!!!!!
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. It sounds to me like you need a PUK code? Your carrier wasn't able to provide you with one?
No response in two days, thread closed.
Hi all,
I am wondering if anyone could help me please...?

I am in possession of my mums Samsung S8 SM-G950F, she has had to send it to me from Australia. Her ex husband activated a 6 digit pin code screen lock. We haven't a clue what this is and obviously he wont tell her what it is.
I spent a while on google and thought I may be able to sort it, I received the phone yesterday and I am still yet to crack it. She has photos on there that she would like to save.
I cannot get in to the phone to enable oem unlock or usb debugging so that leaves me very limited as to what I can do with the phone.
Has anyone got any ideas or know of a way I can get in to the phone to delete the pin lock or even flash stock firmware that may reset the settings so there is no lock activated? I even looked up how to use Rubberducky to create a script to put on a usb or sd card that will run and try all the number combinations to hack the pin code. But unfortunately I didn't find anything that would work.
Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated...
Cheers,
Lee
