Hi there,
My girlfriend went to India this season, and take her cellphone with her, it's a samsung GT-S5660L (bought in Chile)
a friend there borrowed her an Airtel sim card, but when she put it on the phone, it asks for a pin code
(already tried 1234 and 0000)
don't know what else to do, any advices?

I bought the galaxy core prime Sm-G360H from Saudi Arabia. I live in India. I entered my new local sim (New Delhi, India) into the brand new Core Prime for the first time and it is asking for Sim Unlock pin. I checked the sim by putting it in other phones, it works fine . It didnt ask for any pin. Reseting the phone again didnt help. Can anybody here help me with this. Is this the baseband issue? Any Quick remedy for this would be highly appreciated !
Hi guys , picked up a S5 at a train station , Tried finding the owner for 2 days but had no luck , taking the phone to a police station in my country would mean that some corrupt guys cousin is going to get a new phone . Now it had a CellC sim card in , wiped the phone and tried my MTN sim card it won't take it says it's not registered on the network BUT if I use my telkom mobile data contract sim card in the phone it works fine without any blocks or anything . So logic tells me it's been blocked on some of my local carrier networks or "Blacklisted" as such . Please help , I would like to use my MTN sim card in the device
Hi,
You can't unlock. You'd need to take it up with the carrier who blacklisted it. If it's stolen/fouded, then obviously you're out of luck.
Good luck

Hey guys this might be a weird one or very easy.
I bought my huawei ascend mate 7 in china in december 2014, has been working all good so far but while im in japan on holiday I havent been able to connect to the mobile network here at all.
I bought an "international sim" which is a sim service working through ecuador for some reason (dont ask lol)
and bought a data sim here in japan, both nano sims which ive entered the APN information for to no avail
My amaysim sim card from australia isnt working in the main sim slot either (although i didnt intend to use it so I havent activated roaming which is $8k per gb rofl)
When I go to the carrier list to try to choose a carrier the only ones that come up are chinese carriers like china mobile etc, im not sure if this has something to do with it since my phone has been working in australia using the auto select setting.
Any help would be much appreciated since ive lost my visa card and all sorts of horrid **** so im really pretty stuck at the moment.
I was asked to solve this problem by a woman I know.
She got this phone, S7 edge, SM-G935F, through her relative.
Her relative, bought this phone from internet and it had network lock.
I know this is a very repetitive story in this community but I didnt really find a solution.
First thing i did is see the message by plugging in my local SIM (Saudi Arabia cuz i live here) "SIM network pin blocked enter sim network puk"
and then I factory reset the phone to clear out some stuff that she has downloaded (just to remove possible errors.)
So found out that the phone is an international version, and the csc code suggests that its for Spain(?) (PHE) (And also when I factory reset the device and turned it on, the language on device was Spanish for the setup)
I was in Europe for a trip for about 2 weeks, so I had a Vodafone SIM from Czech republic. When I plugged that in, it did not say network locked, instead it proceeded to roaming state.
Now I'm wondering> The phone does not have a brand neither on the phone itself nor systemically. So I have no idea which network it's locked to (I'm thinking it's Europe tho (in general))
But from the vodafone sim working on it, is it possible that this phone is locked to vodafone? or is it the Saudi SIM that's locked to work on other regional versions of phones?
Because this will decide if I need the network unlock code from European service providers or Saudi ones.. I'm actually thinking of changing the firmware if that will unlock the phone. Is this possible as well?
Thank you in advance.
Hello,
maybe somebody can enlighten me or help me.
I have SM-G930S which my girlfriend made the account for me here in korea. When I brought my phone to my home country (manila), I used local sim and it recognized and I even used it in philippines.
However, now she wanted to use with her local sim (KT Telecom), it is not recognizing or not acquiring any signal at all from KT. I know that her sim card is not locked to current device because I try to use her sim to my old S3 and it does acquire signal from KT.
Now my question is, is there a way to unlock my phone so that she can use it for her own telecom? Right now, my phone is registered to SK telecom.
Thanks
