I got my unlock code from AT&T, but they told me I must enter a non-ATT SIM to enter the code.
In searching the forum, the CDMA Rhodium apparently has a security menu under Settings-> Personal where you can enter it. That icon doesn't seem to exist on the Tilt 2.
Anyone know where to enter the pin?
You need to insert a non ATT sim card - start up your phone - a screen will pop up asking you to enter the unlock code - after you enter it, hit "ok".
That is all you need do.

I have received the unlocking code for the mda vario iii but there is no space to enter the code.
When I enter a foreign sim card it brings me to the following screen:
Top left: Sim lock
Main screen: Checking SIM lock status please wait
To make an emergency call, type the emergency number and tap emergency.
Then it has room to enter the emergency number.
I have tried running the simlock.exe from windows but still the same screen.
Let me know if you can help.
have you tried typing in the unlock code and pressing enter as one
would when typing in a normal simcode ?

Thanks.
The problem was with simlock.exe file in windows.
As soon as I have replaced it with the one found in a post it worked.
Hi guys,
A while back I tried to enter a sim unlock code with my T-Mobile sim card and this did not work. Now when I insert the SIM I just get an error MM#6 Not allowed. Is there any way I can get the screen/prompt to enter the SIM unlock again? I have tried a bunch of the *# numbers online but I have been unsuccessful in getting this screen to be displayed so I can enter a new SIM Unlock code. Thanks!

Not that it would really matter, but the guys in the AT&T forum may be more able to assist in this since your device is the AT&T device. Also, what ROM are you using when you try to enter the code? I do believe you have to be on a TouchWiz (custom or stock) not AOSP to enter that menu.

Try this, I am not sure that it will work but it will take you to the screen for network unlock
.Goto phone dailer, and enter *#27663368378# for the debug service menu.
In "ServiceMode", select [1] UMTS
In "UMTS MAIN MENU", select [1] DEBUG SCREEN
In "DEBUG SCREEN", select [6] PHONE CONTROL
In "PHONE CONTROL", select [6] NETWORK LOCK
Good luck!
I have the code to unlock my phone , but I don't see anywhere to put it. I change the sim to another provider and it boots up just fine without asking for any code. In the simlock menu I have an X next to NETWORK and a number 10 at the end.
How do i go about using this code?
I have a D5306.
Have you tried doing this yet...?
For most Sony phones, You must power the phone on with unaccepted SIM card, wait for a few seconds until the phone screen asks for a network unlock pin code. When you see the message, enter the code obtained from Us.
In other cases, mostly in new models can be used #987654321#.
How You can check codes counter:
1. Turn on the phone whithout sim card
2. Lock screen
3. Press sequence: Menu, Back, Back, Menu, Back, Menu, Menu, Back
4. Select Service info
5. Select SimLock
6. Check where is X
7. If X is on NETWORK and value is different than zero, you can unlock your phone.
8. If it is zero unlock by code is NOT available. The counter is blocked.
1. Turn on the phone whithout sim card
2. Type *#*#7378423#*#*
3. Select Service info
4. Select SimLock
5. Check where is X
6. If X is on NETWORK and value is different than 0, you can unlock your phone.
7. If it is 0 unlock by code is NOT possible.
The counter is blocked.

Yeah, tried that already. Thanks.
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 have been trying to unlock my LG tribute 2 phone, after multiple emails with the company (boostmobile), they finally gave me the code, which appears to be an MSL code (6 digits), the problem is, when I insert my unaccepted sim card, the phone doesn't prompt me to do anything, the screen says invalid sim, an icon with sim card with (!) in the top right corner.
After searching online, I found this code on this site: ##3424# , I dialed it in, then entered the code Boostmobile gave me, it then open a screen the turns "DIAG" mode on and off.
that's it, but the sim card is still locked.
how can I get the phone to prompt for inserting the unlock code?
and let me know if I asked my question in the right section

This opened up a menu titled "Data", with a bunch of rows : data profile, EVDO, LTE, eHRPD, APN Settings, ItsOn, DSS, Browser, MMSC, Multimedia, Advanced.
not sure If this menu has anything to do with unlocking the the sim card. do you know more sprint codes that I can try?

You might have to unlock the bootloader to change the sprint settings

Any Idea how to do that, and the likelihood of success?
does anyone know a code to reveal the simlock menu?
I guess no one cares to answer, where is the proper place to get ask this question?
