numbers of attempts for simlock

Hello,
Does anyone know how many times i can enter a wrong code to sim-unlock a HTC phone, before the phone block itself ?
Does it depend on the model? I have a P3300.
Might be 3 or 5?
Thank you.

Any idea?

it's handled by the sim card itself not the phone
here it's always 3 but could vary with other countries
and companys
heck it even tell me 3 times max when i type in the sim after
a softreset

Ooops,
Thank you for the answer.
My question dealed with the network lock, if the phone is locked to a specific carrier and i want to use a sim from a different provider, i have to enter a code to allow this.
In that case, the number of attempts should be handled in the phone, but i will check this.
Thanks.

X02HT Unlock.

I purchased unlock code,
but now i cant enter in it, it is always at
"Sim Lock. You can still make emergency calls if your service provider supports it"
And showing Emergency only,
is there any way to skip this or put code in it ?

Put a sim card from from another provider to your phone. Than it will ask you to put the unlock code.

It seems that people say to upgrade the rom and it should work.
Some older threads discussed this. The new rom is available at XDA-Wiki
Good luck!
I'm sitting here with my locked cavalier waiting for the unlock code to come to me!

I'll definitely consider ROM's upgrading. Thank you for the advice.
However, I'd like to post some feed-back about people behind http://www.x02ht-unlock.com/
( Dear forum admins, PLEASE do not remove this message. It's quite emotional, but I'm posting it to achieve one of two possible results. And every one of them is positive enough:
- people behind x02ht-unlock.com would hear me finally, and help to solve my problem (and, probably, I'm not the only one who has the same problem, but couldn't get any feedback via the support form);
=OR=
- someone wouldn't spend $50.00 for no result. )
Their support was more than terrible: they replied to all my questions promptly, but only until I finally sent them money for an unlock code ($50.00).
The current state: my phone is still not locked, and no one at support @ x02ht-unlock.com is willing to even talk to me on this problem.
I've done everything according to the instructions, but still get "SIM locked" message. I've sent them my problem's description (and even attached a screenshot), and no one replied to me. I sent problem description via email and using their "Send a question" form. Both both were left without _any_ reply.
It now seems to me, that they're cheating and the program never worked for anybody (someone on the internet can say it works, but who can be sure that he's not the person who receives money for that program?)
Even if the program is working, in fact, but they simply don't know how to solve my problem -- they could tell me about that and offer to return my money (because the program didn't its function). So, it's cheating anyway.
The worst thing is that PayPal won't cancel this transaction under any condition. Here's what they say:

I found some information and just trying
Please try and send ur feedback!
1. Power on phone with a non-original SIM card inserted
2. When prompted, enter unlock code you received from us
Attention! Use the onscreen keyboard and make sure that wireless mode is OFF.
3. Your cell phone is now unlocked
If you see a message Sim lock.. You can still make emergency calls your phone has a blocked counter due to several previous incorrectly entered unlock codes. Plug your phone in charger and wait about few minutes to few days until it allow you enter unlock ...
if tried 1 times = 30 minutes
if tried 2 times = 1 hours
if tried 3 times = 2 hours
if tried 4 times = 4 hours
if tried 5 times = 8 hours
if tried 6 times = 12 hours
if tried 7 times = 24 hours
........15 times = 4 days

Other network

My friend bought me a tmobile dash from america.I hevw to run the phone on a greek network but it doesnt working.It says the sim is valid?What do i have to do to make it work?

get it sim unlocked for one.
Read this thread

Is this the only way?I mean i have a qtek8310 and i sim unlocked it with the SPV-Services.Can i do the same with the Dash?I dont have a windows xp system at the time and the progrmam doesnt run..Thats why im asking!
Did anyone tested it?
Anyway if this is the only way unlocking the phone whats the price jockyw2001 asking?

If your phone had it working with an American provider, he can call the provider for the unlock code.
If it was straight from a store........find a computer with XP and go thru Jocky.
Not sure how much he asks for.
Can't you ask any off them Ellines to unlock it for you out there?

He changed the provider he doesnt have anymore T-mobile so we cant ask for a code anymore...
Before i ment that SPV-services doesnt run on vista.You must run it on XP system to test it if it can unlock the phone the same way as qtek8310 did.
Oi "Ellines" want a lot of money to do it!Some big mobile phone stores in Greece think that we are stupid...
They want something like 60euros witch is about 80dollars sometimes to make just a sim unlock and i dont trust them!I prefer to do it my way!
Lot of money dont you thing..?

T-Mobile UK

whenever i get a message from t-mobile it says its sent from one of my facebook contacts. not even someone i have in my phone contacts, just someone i have on facebook.

Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk

Google is your friend! Search for T-mobile SIM PIN.... if you had done you would have found this in the first post.. probably quicker than posting here & waiting for my reply too
The PIN code for your T-Mobile SIM card is printed on the delivery slip that comes with the SIM card.
If in doubt, try T-Mobile's default PIN code for SIM cards, which is 1210.
Note that you get three tries to enter the PIN, and your phone will be locked if you fail after these tries. You'll then need to contact T-Mobile to get a PUK code.

1210 or 1212 i think ... dunno should be on the SIM pack on the letter.

How to sim lock diamond?

hi giuys like the header says i would like to sim lock my phone... what i mean is that i want my phone to work only with my sim... i've tried to search on the forum for it but with no results... can you help me???
thanks in advance

hi. first of all, if your phone is sim locked, it not gonna work only with your sim but with every sim card of your network ( vodafone in your case); secondly i've never heard about something or somehow to sim-lock again a phone!!! ask Olinex, may be he knows!!! good luck

i didn't mean the general sim-lock like the branded phones have i mean maybe a lite app that runs when you start the phone and blocks you from using the phone if there is no sim or it isn'tt the sim you've previously registered...

aahhh okayyyy, you mean something like the nokia's phone locking if the sim is changed! i've understood now! i was looking for it me too but i've never found a bit! we'll stay in touch, if i find something intresting i'll tell you ciao

I got what you need but it is shareware [you have to pay for it].
It is for Wm 5 but i think that it will support higher too.
Did you search on google?
Here is the link: [click].
I searched for the "cra**ed" version but all links are dead or fake.

hi thanks for the reply guys

if you can use password protection why bother such thing!!!
okay, password may be broken by software, but same thing for any kind of security also.
anyway, a program can be written such as:
small memory residence program which will check the sim nr. in every few min.
if not matched, will enter into Airport Mode + screen lock
keep checking every few min.
if it matched the nr. stored before (encrypted) will unlock airport mode+screen
or the program will only trigger at the stratup or sim change
