Hi,
I have an HTC Blueangel that my brother set a PIN lock to, now he cant remember it. I had previously reflshed it to WinMobile 6.0. I have tried reflashing but the user area must be seperate or something but that did not clear it, and the PIN prompt is always there.Any idea any one?
Thanks in advance.
dude, if u r referring to the PIN Code Lock problem, then seek help from your network service provider. Coz the PIN Code is only applied to your sim card. No fault in the handset
just contact your network provider to retrieve it back

well i think this would be an odd topic with all the unlocking talk going around...but this is exactly what i want to know...
how do i lock my imate jam i mean how many locks could be put on the phone and the pda itself...powerfull locks so no one would be breaking those except for u guys xda-developers.com
is there a way to bootlock it like the one a PC has? you could just put a password for booting
and how does the sim lock work? i tried the option given in my phone which says "Require PIN when phone is used", but that is just for MY sim and it wont lock the whole thing. so basically what i want is a lock that would not allow any other sim to work in my phone.
thanks
hi...
simply...go to settings/personal tab/password,and lock it :wink:
it's too strong that it will prompt password after each soft reset,and if u put 0 minutes near "prompt if device unused for",will prompt password each time u turn on ur phone(after standby).....
it cannot be hacked....without....HARD RESET...
so i guess,ur looking for something stronger.. :wink: ,or u think it's enought???
RAGO :lol:
stronger one
well that is i think the weakest one i mean it just needs a hard reset im certainly looking for something stronger
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.
hi Devs!..
i searched in the whole forum, but I didn't find anything.
Is there a android-rom ore something else, which accepts my PIN-Code?
The XDAndroid doesn't do this....
If there's no rom, is there a program to debug this problem?
thx
Xdandriod should let you make/accept your Pin Code for Andriod. Unless you mean your Windows Mobile Pin Code.
People say on the forums that you need to disable your Pin Code for Windows Mobile but I don't seem to have an issue with that.
Good Luck.
If you're referring to the PIN on your SIM card, then no. I don't believe any of the Android ports for any of the devices on this forum support SIM PIN codes. If I recall correctly, I believe the problem lies in the AT command syntax used by Android, but don't quote me on that. For now, you'll have to disable your SIM PIN to use Android.
ok, so i don't have any programm to solve the problem?
Sure, i'm not so happy about that i habe to disable my pin code, but, if there's no way i have to do it...
thx anyway
yawp only way to run the droid is to disable ur pin but we are almost running android fulltime so fairly soon it will be more of a either or thing
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
Hey guys, I have a serious problem logging into my Pixel 6 pro. I basically locked myself out of it, as it seems.
I just wanted to add a pin code to my e-sim and went to the security settings to do so.
My phone asked for th PUK number which entered from the information card I received from my provider. Then it asked me to enter and confirm my new pincode. As soon as I did so, it said wrong PUK number. If you want you can deactive your esim to use the phone without mobile connection which I don't want, obviously.
Does anyone have an explanation for that? As I told you the puk is definitely correct.
The only reason I can think of why the PUK is incorrect is that the phone activated my old esim (something I asked my provider to do shortly before it happened).
Long story short I cannot log in anymore, Hard reset did not help me and I am about to send in the phone to the google support.
Is there a way around the puk pin request? My phone is not rooted and unfortunately debugging is also not active yet.
I am really clueless and hope that you can help me!
Best reagrds from Germany!
