I bought an BNIB, unlocked s7500 but it doesnt accept any other sim cards except what i currently use?
Is it possible that the phone locked itself somehow to the first sim I used?
I am in india and use Docomo
Type this number in your call log and it will tell you if your network lock is on or off.
*#7465625#
If it is on then your phone is locked

Even if it is locked...
fastboot oem unlock
Then its unlocked
Yeah. When you turn it on, is there a icon of a unlocked padlock under the word google? If there is them it's unlocked. This is unlocked in the sense of rooting it. Are you talking unlocked like to use on a different carrier? I don't know that answer.
But I want it with the origenal room so I can receive OTA without the need to boot. Thx

If you're talking about if it's sim unlocked then yes, if you bought straight from Google or Samsung then it is unlocked. If you bought it from a carrier then its not. Unlocking the bootloader is when you'd see the lock icon when u boot up. That has nothing to do with carrier sim unlock.

If you're buying used then just ask the previous owner if he bought it straight from Google (best buy, etc) or from a carrier.

When I entered *#7465625#, it says something like not an emergency number.
Does this mean I need to put a sim card inside for the check?
Thanks
You are correct.

HI guys ,
i am really desperate
i have a verizon sumsung galaxy s3 SCH-I535 and it's network is locked i already rooted and unlocked it s bootloader but i need the code to unlock the network
PLEAAAAAAAAAAASE SOME HELP ME !
If you are not the original owner, you will have to have him/her get the code. It is phone/SIM specific and needs to be activated thru Verizon Customer Care.
Or, you could always try this ...

Can you please expand on what you need? Maybe I am too new and don't understand, but what is a network unlock code, why do you need it, and what is your phone status? Will it boot? Can you get into recovery or download mode?

While I was travelling, I used another sim card in this phone, it worked for two days but then suddenly it prompted me for a lock code.. I left it over to my hotel room and my friend was playing around with it. he entered 10 times incorrect code. Now the phone is locked completely and i cant use any SIM. The phone itself it working only the network is locked it...

I have never come across this situation before. Now if you put a different SIM in it does it give an unlock prompt at all?

I think you should take it to the carrier or a shop. They may have tools to fix that. You can also try using the kdz updater to initialize the office but not sure if it would work.

I've seen this on another LG phone. It was on ATT. All my friend had to do was call the carrier and they unlocked it. Don't know it that will help, but good luck!
