Hi I've got a UK T-Mobile SDAII on contract, unlocked thanks to this forum, which I sometimes use with a French SFR pay-as-you-go card.
Somehow I've blocked the PIN on this card and have had to obtain a 7 digit PUK / Personal Unblocking Code. I can key in the code, but when I try to press the 'done' key, nothing happens.
I've also tried unblocking it via my 'Super GSM Reader' which does process the PUK, but says that the code is incorrect - although in the absence of proper instructions for the software that could be because I've not used it correctly (or because the PUK will only work in the phone?)
Any ideas how to get around this? Also, why is the PUK linked to the brand of the phone - and is this why the GSM reader didn't work?
Thanks...

Thank's a lot,i try but my code is wrong i think, it don't work, but thank you very much!!!
Can you try this for me?
go to phone dialer, enter the following: *#7465625#
can you change all entries to Enabled?
**I've an unlocked Omnia so can't try it for you first.**
Ok i do this but if i try again nothing is change, can you explain me what you want me to do?
Surely if you set all options to enabled, it'll enable ALL locks on the phone instead of disabling them?
After setting the "network lock" to disabled, when you enter that service menu again, it just automatically re-enables it again
Where can I find my unlock code
I have been reading the posts about this. I am on the Vodafone Dutch provider and want to unlock the i900 I have. Now, I have no idea where to find it and as you are the expert, can you help me?

Just been surfing about..now you will not get you unlock code until the i900 you have from your provider is more than a year old. So, unless you want to pay to have it done (+/- €40 here in NL) you will just have to patient!

This is for an I907. I imagine that if you are locked to a carrier to you call tech support and do something along these lines and go through the same process.
That is, assuming that you have some sort of account with the company that originally had your phone. I got my off ebay, but it was AT&T locked. Luckily I have an ATT account.
I called ATT support (611) pressed, 1, 5, 5, 0 (or something like that to get to a customer service person and said:
I am going to Hong Kong, a friend purchased a prepaid sim card for me. He said that I needed to call AT&T to ask for a subsidy unlock code to use my card over there.
They checked the imei and account code and then gave me my 8 digit number.
May not apply if you don't have an account with the locking company. Good luck.
There is a solution

I own an Android Developer Phone1 and have been working with it sans problems.
Once I tried to flash the OpenEclair 2.0 and succeeded in that. But as the performance was sluggish, I wanted to restore the stock ROM.
Accidentally I flashed drea100.nbh and my ADP was downgraded to a retail phone. After a long struggle I somehow managed to restore the original ADP bootloader.
But, now I have a problem. The phone does not recognize any SIM cards.
I thought the hardware might have gone bad, but found the "Lock SIM card" checkbox ticked in the SIM card lock settings.
I am unable to uncheck this, as it is asking me for the PIN and even if I enter 1234 or 0000 it is saying wrong PIN. Can someone help me remove this lock?
Baseband/modem I747UCUFNJ2, stock 4.4.2 rooted. Phone from AT&T working ok with Claro Brazil (code unlocked) . After upgrading, lost IMEI. Flashed new modem and IMEI and IMEISV ok now. Checked IMEI number, is the same printed behind battery on phone. But now can not make calls. Got message 'No SIM card'. Ordered a Sim card tray, replaced it, but got same message. Phone has strong carrier signal. After reading a lot, I ordered a paid unlock code, but seller stated that code doesnt work in android 4.2.2. Even though, I tried to insert it once. (#@7465625*638*# - have to use it since phone doesnt ask for code at starting). As stated by seller, got message 'unlocked unsucessfull'. So now, what can I do to unlock the fone ? I have access to a hiden menu by dialing *#197328640# , but dont know how to use it. I have read a lot during this week. Did no find any helpfull information. Any help will be apreciated. Sorry for my bad english.
Sounds like the baseband and bootloader and too new for the ROM. You probably need to upgrade from stock 4.2.2 to stock 4.4.2 or flash a custom ROM based on a TW-kernel.
I edited/corrected my wrong information. The phone is on 4.4.2 stock already.
Try this:
Method 1:
Go to the dial screen and press #7465625*638*#
Once prompted for code, enter 8 digit Unlock Code.
Method 2:
Turn off your Samsung phone
Insert a non-accepted sim card (different from the original carrier) and turn your phone back on.
When prompted for the unlock code type the UNFREEZE code provided. If you are not prompted, go to your dial screen and type the UNFREEZE code, now press enter, send or call. You will receive an unsuccesfull message, don't worry.
Once the phone freeze is disabled, the Network lock or SP Lock screen will appear
For Network lock enter the UNLOCK code provided. For SP Lock enter the SERVICE PROVIDER code
Your phone is now fully unlocked!
If you get "unsuccessful" again then hit Dismiss button and type *2767*3855# on phone keypad and try this procedure again (CAUTION! This will reformat all your data!).
Method 3:
You can try this method without the sim card or with the original sim card
Type #7465625*638*CODE# (CODE is the Unlock Code)
Phone deactivated message means its unlocked
I got an unlock code from AT&T for my Active. The instruction they send me is this:
1. Power off the device and remove the SIM card.
2. Power on the device.
3. Enter #0111*, the unlock code, and #. The device cycles off and back on.
However after step 3, nothing happens. I tried a couple times, press the dial button, nothing happened.
Can anyone help? Thanks
Put your AT&T SIM card back in the device, power it on, then make sure it's working with AT&T - this is assuming you have AT&T service, I hope, 'cause if not you could be somewhat stuck here.
Having said that, the process is fairly simple:
- power down the device with the AT&T SIM card inside it (as noted above, if this can't be done then again you could be stuck)
- take the AT&T SIM card out, put in a SIM card from whatever provider you're attempting to use the device with
- power on the device
- after the boot process is finished you should encounter this screen or something similar:
With a non-AT&T SIM card in the locked device that screen should appear every time you boot the device until you actually get it unlocked, if you're not seeing that screen then something odd is happening.
- if you do see that screen enter the code and BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO MAKE ANY MISTAKES WHATSOEVER because you can only enter a code incorrectly a certain number of times after which the device will never be unlockable so, make sure you're accurate.
My Active is still network locked and I just put a T-Mobile nanoSIM in it, rebooted and voila, I get that screen. If you're not getting it then something is not right someplace, you might need to go to an actual AT&T store and see about having them assist you.
