I just recently bought my first smart phone from a friend. He told me we could get the unlock code from at&t. I was given the wrong code. Not knowing it was the wrong one I tried it a few times, 5 times to be exact. I have seen it posted on a few threads and was told by at&t, after i had tried the code, that after five attempts the phone is permanantly locked. I tried the kaiser sim unlocker but the phone still won't let me confirm the code. Is my phone permanantly locked or is it possible to still unlock it? The phone is a HTC Kaiser 8925. If anybody has any answers it would be much appreciated.

OK soo i jus purchased brand new never used ATT branded tilt2... it's still SIM locked-i need to unlock it so i can use it on tmobile.right now i am using the first generation tilt (also att branded) with tmobile service, it runs great and perfectly. i have tried purchasing to get the unlock code remotely twice within the last 2days but both parties said i either gave them the wrong imei or that they cant find the unlock code.WHY IS THIS??? i really need this phone unlocked!!! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! n/or tell me why is it that the code can't be found???~thanks
try this he is well known here http://www.htc-unlocks.com/
what i usually do is call At&t and tell them that i'm going on a business trip overseas and need it unlocked and then they'll email me the unlock code.
Done this for several devices with them.
Hope this has not been asked somewhere else, but I bought used Tilt form a co worker, was told by AT&T that there should have been 5 tries to unlock, when I got it there were 3. I used 2 got one left. The IMEI # on the phone and when checked for electronically are the same. The unlock code was verfied sevaral times through AT&T and I have a european sim in it. And am unable to unlock. When the phone starts up it takes you directly to the unlock screen. Any idea why I cant unlock this? 1 try left and its not good for Europe!!!
do I need to follow the kaiser sim unlocker post?
alot more complicated then what I was hoping
I have purchased an LG Optimus LTE P930 phone from someone on Kijiji and the phone is locked to bell but when I go to throw a different sim card in to unlock it I get "this phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked". is there anyways to fix this issue?
Yeah, you need to find someone who can get your NCK unlock code. I got mine from a guy on eBay for like $3. Then dial 2945#*930# and enter the unlock code you are given. Easy peasy.
You might try these guys.
it does not give me an option at type in a NCK code as soon as it turns on with wrong sim it just pop's up with that same error
I don't understand, can you not dismiss the error and continue using the phone and then type in that number I gave you? If all else fails, maybe you can remove your SIM card and dial the number that way? As I recall, I had 0 issues unlocking my phone and I didn't even have a SIM card in it when I did it if I remember correctly...
A "freeze" usually happens after too many NCK attempt, usually 10.
what you would be looking for is an "unfreeze" code.
But if your Bell SIM still works it sounds like it is a service provider lock -SPCK- which is similar to network locked.
There may be a dialer code to reset attempt count, may also be able to binary edit it.
I reocmmend trying a site like this http://www.unlockallcellular.com/lg-nitro-hd-unlock-code-p-198068.html
there may be afew other, even on ebay. I would get with one that provides a guarantee. Usually invloves taking a video of you entering code to prove if it works or not. If not they will refund your money.
be patient as it could take a day or two.
I once paid $70 to unlock my dell streak 7.
Cheers.

Hey guys
Just a couple of months ago I got my lumia 900 as a gift.. However it was AT&T SIM Locked.
Checking through some forums and combing through the internet I found out that the PIN Code given by AT&T sometimes didn't work when requested for the PIN code but instead when PUK Code was asked.
I must sadly say, I tried using my given pin code for my PUK including my current network's simPUK code but all failed.
Now I have no attempts and I cannot seem to enter the PIN Code given not even the PUK code..
Can someone please let me know a simpler way to unlock this phone? I have software flashed numerous times but the PUK or PIN code isn't resetting.. Please do let me know!
Thank you so very much.
