I think you can use it on only one phone since they ask you for our IMEI, although I would love to be proved otherwise.

no paypal
i am in jamaica is there any other way to pay?

"Slot has been permanently blocked"

I flashed a custom ROM and the on first screen my device asked to insert the PIN code, then i tried more than two times and it showed "Slot has been permanently blocked". I could't make any phonecalls And when i flashed my stock ROM it works normal.
Do you know how to unlock the SIM slot?
Thank you very much.
Device: Blu vivo IV (Gionne s.5.5) chipset 6598
Custom ROM: Lolifox V6
---------------------------------
If you truly believe the device is stolen or has otherwise been acquired through illegitimate means, we can't help you - you should contact the authorities and have the seller investigated. Stealing is a crime and stolen IMEIs are blocked for that very reason.
If not, first check that the phone supports the network frequencies that your carrier uses wherever you are - not all phones support all bands, and not all carriers support all bands either.
If you can tell us the make and model of the phone, we can point you to a device-specific forum in case it's a general problem or issue with that phone model.
Beyond that, you can try to take up with the manufacturer of the phone or the carrier if it's a carrier-branded phone.
I once had to make numerous called to my carrier's support line because my new imported phone was somehow registered in my carrier's database as a completely different kind of device, so the system kept kicking me off the data plan."

My device was not stolen, i bought it recently, if you guys want i could post the photography of the box.
I live in BRAZIL (BLU IV) and i am trying to install a custom room for a device which's made for INDIA(GIONE s5.5), the device, it self, is the same, what changes its the "software".I saw a video on youtube that someone from USA installed the same custom ROM and didn't get any problem.
I am apologies for this good English sirs.

If you enter the wrong PIN more than three times, the "slot" gets blocked and you can't use your SIM to connect to the network anymore. Newly bought SIM cards come inside one bigger card on which your PUC is written on. For security purposes, SIM cards require this code to be entered if they get locked down.

Question Software Update disappeared

Unlocked variant from Samsung. I had a Software Update setting section. Soon after putting my Verizon SIM in the device the setting isn't there anymore.
Not sure how to fix or get the setting back. I can't check for new updates either

I have an unlocked variant (SM-F711U1) running a Verizon SIM and software updates option is right in the main settings menu

If you can't find it there, try going to Settings; About Phone; then on the bottom you should see "looking for something else?" And software update under it. Check the pic I've attached

This is all I have

Sorry for the late reply, but to me it almost seems like your phone didn't quite set itself to Verizon's configuration when you put your Verizon SIM card in. It's almost like it has no configuration for updating software PERIOD. This is very strange as even the unlocked version, while brand new, with no SIM ever put in should still show some form of a software update option when connected to internet.
The two suggestions I have are 1)
Use Google dialer set to default and dial code *#*#3747#*#* that will take you to a menu with three options and you want to tap on the "phone information" option and there will be a massive amount of information about your phones network configuration in there including stating that it is actively running on the Verizon network and successfully has the carrier provisioning info. (Disclaimer: I suggest not getting curious and manually changing settings in there when you don't know what you're doing because you can disable network bands and really end up having to factory reset your whole phone if you don't fully comprehend what you're changing) I'm just suggesting that you look visually to make sure of what I said above is what you see.
2nd)
If nothing else, pop your sim card out and go to settings, general management, reset and then tap the reset network info option and let your phone reset it's whole network configuration. If it doesn't reboot itself after then manually power the phone down, while powered down reinsert your Verizon SIM card and then power back up and give it a few minutes to get itself reconnected to Verizon's Network and after about 10 minutes I would reboot the phone again and see if anything has changed.

Spoiler: Also check this in about, status information, SIM status
You should see what you see in my picture when you click the spoiler link.

Locked out of Galaxy S22 following / after update -- device rejects / won't accept the correct password

Hello! Posting widely.
Around Nov 11th, about two weeks ago, I caved in and accepted the prompts on my S22 to undergo a firmware update. I'm not 100% positive, but based on the timing (and the assumption that this isn't a carrier update but a Samsung one) I think it was probably the One UI 5.0 rolling out for Android this fall. I was prompted to put in my password to complete the update, but my device rejected the correct password that I've always used since I activated the phone in July!
I have only a few attempts left before my device factory-resets, but apparently this isn't unheard of for Galaxy phones (https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S-Phones/Phone-locked-after-last-update/td-p/730622 -- but calling the specialist number listed therein, multiple times, led to nothing but the suggestion to do a hard / factory reset). I really don't want to lose all data since my last backup!
So far I've tried these steps over the past two+ weeks or so:
- Samsung Find My Mobile is apparently not set up on this device, even Samsung has no record of it
- Android Device Manager won't even ring the phone. It had the correct GPS location at first, but not after I let the phone die and charged it up again. Multiple soft resets haven't allowed it to find via GPS, but despite the never-even-ringing I did try hitting "Lock" and changing the password just once while it still "saw" the phone on the map. Now it just says can't reach device.
- Restarting in Safe Mode: still asks for the password, with "attempts remaining" countdown where it I left it. Can't even hit "Shut Down" or "Restart" buttons because that asks for the password, too.
- Recovery Mode / boot menu ... can't imagine anything I saw there was helpful. Perhaps "wipe cache partition" if something is glitchy? Or, is there any way to roll back to previous Android software I had prior to the update ... or force the same update again via ADB and hope it let me in this time??
- Many support calls to Best Buy, Verizion, and Samsung!
P.S. Not the safest, but I've been using the same password for another, still-in-use device for months now, and I used the eyeball icon on m Android to make sure I'm typing it right, so I know it's correct. I'm not sure what version I'm running or anything, can't get in to check. I'm able to connect apparently to my home, recognized WiFi source just by tapping the WiFi icon, and my Location icon is also lit as active when I drop down from the top of the screen.
Note about the images: my phone language is set to Italian. I bought it in the US, just prefer to see things written in Italian on it.
Is there any way I can hope to enter the phone even just once, to get my data off, without a factory reset? Seems like Samsung says absolutely not.

Mint Mobile SERIOUS Android issue, ANDROID SECURITY UPDATES

If you own an unlocked phone, there is something you should be aware of before choosing Mint Mobile as a carrier (this may apply to any carrier that uses a major carrier's network rather than their own).
Mint Mobile supplies no software or Android updates (unless possibly if you purchased your unlocked phone from Mint Mobile).
I purchased my unlocked Samsung Note 20 Ultra 5G used. The prior owner was on the Verizon network. I used the AT&T network, which put all the AT&T "bloatware" on my phone.
When I switched to Mint Mobile, all the AT&T software remained and cannot be uninstalled (other than by a factory data reset). My phone still boots with the AT&T logo, despite using Mint now.
The Google Play store is forcing an update to AT&T SIGN-IN HELPER - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.att.csoiam.mobilekey, an app I do not want or need. I am FAR from the only one facing this issue, if you read the reviews for that app.
My Note20 Ultra 5G is on Android 13, the last scheduled Android version for this model. However, I just discovered that I have not bern receiving monthly Android security updates since switching to Mint, because the phone still contacts AT&T to receive them, despite the fact that I no longer have AT&T as a carrier.
Mint Mobile support is aware of this and has no resolution.
Now my question... is there a safe way for me to manually install Android security updates on my non-rooted phone?
(Attempting to update on the phone always says "interrupted" now. The help option sends me to AT&T . Samsung support suggests I take my out of warranty phone to a service center )

At time of this writing latest AOSP security patch got released by Google at
2023-05-05​
and automatically gets installed on Google Pixel phones. Whether carriers also rollout a corresponding OTA is in their hands.

AT&T shows Android security updates for my phone model that are dated later than Nov 1, 2022 (my last update), but they can only be installed on the AT&T network, so I am kinda screwed at this point. My current Mint Mobile contact only has about a month left, I might need to switch to a major carrier just to get the Android security updates.
