Hello
I really need some help
I bought a Samsung galaxy nexus week ago and its worked until today
When I turn the phone on it asks me for "sim network unlock pin"
how should i get the unlock pin
could flashing to a new rom have un-done the unlock? ( i flashed but it still has problem )
I'm having this EXACT same problem.
VERY frustrating!

Hi,
I have bought a HTC Desire 2 days ago which is locked on 3 network (Sweden). I purchased an unlock code but i never got the sim lock screen to enter it. I tried entering all kinds of SIM cards and they all work except the phone will only connect to 3 network , so it's allways on Roaming.
How to enter the unlock code?
FYI: When i received the desire it came with android 2.2, i have rooted it and also installed cyanogen firmware.

I have a phone that was locked to 3.
I installed my Orange SIM and when I turned on the device, selected phone I gor the unlock enter code message.
just put a diffrent sim in and it will ask you for an unlock code
I'm doing that, i put different SIM from different provider but never got a dialog box to enter unlock code
Hi
I bought my Galaxy Nexus from someone on ebay and I assumed it would have been an unlocked phone .. However after using it for 2 months, it was suddenly unable to access the network (Vodafone, UK).
After upgrading phone to 4.2.1 and changing SIM card, there was still no improvement. Then Vodafone informed me that my phone is "locked" to their network and I need an unlock code.
I have, since, purchased an Unlock code, but the device does NOT prompt me to enter an unlock code when the Vodafone SIM is inserted. The directions in the unlock procedure have been advised as below:
1.So... type *#7465625*638*
2.Then type YOUR UNLOCK CODE
3.Type #
4.Press ENTER or OK
I have no idea how to type a number in the dialpad and press "Enter" because the only option I have is to "dial" .. which leads me to a "no network" error.
At my wits end ... any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
thanks !
If it's a Vodafone phone then a Vodafone SIM should just work - the SIM lock would only apply to non-Vodafone SIM cards...besides, all Galaxy Nexus' were SIM-free AFAIK

I don't know what network the phone was tied to earlier .. but I bought it and was using it with a Vodafone SIM. It's not a Vodafone phone per se .. and I was quite sure my phone was a SIM-free unlocked phone anyways.
But the tech support team at Vodafone say that the phone is locked to their network.

Please let me know if there is any way to unlock a mobile when it is NOT prompting for an unlock code when the new SIM is inserted.
thanks !
Hi !
I just started to play with a Wildfire S sim locked by Orange (Cid : ORANG202).
I unlocked it (but it's still S-ON) and flashed successfully several custom roms (Marvellous CM10, CyanogenMod 10.1, AceOne 2.2).
Then I installed a Free Mobile's sim card. The phone only asked me for the sim card code pin, it was accepted, it but I had no network at all. Note that this sim card works in another phone.
I thought it was a simlock problem, that's why I asked Orange for the unlock code, they gave it to me but ...
My problem now is that the phone NEVER asked me for a network unlock code. I have no network. Some roms display a red cross on the sim card icon on the top bar.
Does someone know what's going wrong ?
I finally got it working after flashing nearly stock rom. The phone finally asked me for a network unlock code !
Thank you for your help guys :silly:
Hi guys, I'm trying to network unlock my M8 to use in Germany. I've inserted the card and typed in the network unlock code that I bought. Unfortunately, it is hanging on "Requesting network unlock'
I have tried factory resetting the phone.
What can I do?
Thank you
Are you stock, which carrier?
AT&T Skydragon rom
Try stock rom if you can see if that helps. Do a backup of your current rom, flash stock then restore backup
I'd suggest go back to complete stock also.
thanks, going back to complete stock worked. However my SIM card is locked every time I turn on the phone.
What do you mean your SIM card is locked? Do you mean you have to enter a pin to unlock the screen?
Network unlock requested?
