SimUnlock instructions for ASUS p552 :)

hi,
this afternoon, i finally get a network code for my p552.
unfortunately, my operator support (orange) doesn't have a valid procedure to set the unlocking code...
First problem, the length of the code which is 10 in my case and 8 within the procedure...
Then, when i try another simcard from another network, if i set my pincode, nothing happens, except i don't have any network connexion available (which is normal, as my phone is locked on orange network)...i hoped a popup or something would give me access to a form to enter the unlocking code.
I think there is a way to enter the code with a special manufacturer code like *#12345678#unlock_code# (or something like that....)
So, if anybody here has already unlock an Asus mobile phone (not especially the p552), it will be very nice to give me a procedure so i can test it on my phone with my own unlock_code.
Thanks.
edit : in fact, the "enter unlock code" screen does not show up...And i really don't understand why.

To unlock the p552 (orange network) you have to do the following :
1. Power ON your phone with a not allowed sim card (one that didn't come with the phone)
2. Type *#865625#SIMUNLOCK CODE (provided by your operator) - without clicking on the "call button".
3. A popup will appear telling you it's done.
And now, to fully take advantage of your new simcard :
wait some moments
OR switch to plane mode and to phone mode again, type your pincode
...And it works!

bump.
If anybody knows.

Where to you to throw a file?

I don't understand... You want to send me a file?

Do you unlocked your phone or what?

if you read carefully my post, you'll understand that i don't have any instruction from my provider to do it. I've got the unlock code, that's all.

And you can't go to the shop and ask for the instructions?

Because instructions provided by both stores and customer services are erroneous...
Everyone who owns this phone, experience the same problem, and there is no known solution right now as technical services from orange are not qualified enough to solve it and guys from asus support won't help us as orange is the official distributor.
In short, right now, we're screwed.

Bump for justice \o/
See first post to get correct instructions.

thx very much for your help

Unlock Sony Erricson Xperia Arc

I am trying my level best to get my xperia arc unlocked. The phone is bought from Rogers Canada from my friend who won it in a contest. I cannot find the unlock code as it is not present in the rogers database. The third party vendors have suggested me to get a manufacture unlock code. Others have suggested me to get a turbo sim to unlock it. A turbo sim is not a good option as call get dropped. Also, I have been suggested to get it unlocked from a software. Please someone anyone can help me get a legitimate unlock code.

Just did mine today $7.99 and got the code in a few hours.
http://www.cellunlocker.net/

I have tried them. no code found in my case. any other suggestions.

You tested to make sure it isn't unlocked already?
if you check howardforums there are a ton of unlock companies in the marketplace.

Yes I have. I have an AT&T sim card as well as a telus sim card but still they are of no use. Please suggest me any unlocking place that can provide me with a manufacture unlock code or a software that connects to the sony server to get the code from them directly.

I have used these guys as well
http://www.mobileincanada.com/

Ton of unlock code providers for Rogers phones, as mentioned above.
Did you provide the right IMEI?
http://cgi.ebay.ca/UNLOCK-CODE-4-Ro...000?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item2310942680 Got my code in 2 hours.

Believe you me my friends but i have tried almost all the websites mentioned above including ebay. below is the imei number if anyone can help me find the code. I will be grateful to you. The imei number is coming right from the phone.

Sony Ericsson xperia arc
I had also tried out for my sony ericsson xperia arc but it doesn't work.
From where i can get the original code because for unlock code you can enter the code only for 3 time after that the phone will be lock and you will not be able to access your phone.

Never post your IMEI number as it can be used for insurance fraud!

Just got the update im on 3 in Ireland
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App

Apologies, I was not sure about it. but i have taken the imei down. my friends have suggested me that there is no unlock code in the database for rogers. i need a software unlock or some manufacture code to unlock it

Can i use a turbo sim to work with the phone? any thoughts? Is there a software that can unlock it. Please let me know.

i was wondering who told you that? every single phone has a unique unlock code and it is there while the phone was being made. people have been misled that unlock codes can not be found since it is too new or some other reasons.
PM me, if you still wanna unlock your Arc.
beware, your warranty will be void if unlocked by cable.

Lancez I have sent you a PM. Kindly follow up with me if you are lucky to find an unlock code.

I was thinking about getting the phone from Rogers once I find out a way to have someone ship it to me but now I stumble across this. Whats up with Rogers phones?

[Q] Repeated "network unlock request unsuccessful" message even after unlocking

[Q] Repeated "network unlock request unsuccessful" message even after unlocking
[Note, I do not have root (it caused too many weird glitches and I missed OTA updates).]
I have the Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM originally locked to O2 UK. Months ago they provided me an unlock code and unfreeze code. When I entered it, the phone unlocked. But often, when changing SIM cards, I'd need to enter the code again. No big deal.
A few months ago it took several reboots and inserting the original SIM before the phone would unlock, but randomly it did.
Now I am stuck overseas, and have been trying for 2 days to unlock this piece of ****. The exact same code will not work. The unfreeze code will not work. I even just paid $25 to an unlock website, and the just sent me the same codes, so the codes are definitely right.
I have tried all of the unlocking instructions in their email. Nothing is working.
None of these instructions work. No network unlock screen appears. I believe this feature does not work with this phone:
Code:
Method #2 Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press: #7465625*638*UNLOCKCODE# (8 digit unlock code)
OR
Method #3 Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press: #0111*UNLOCKCODE# (8 digit unlock code)
OR
Method #4 Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press #7465625*638*# Once prompted for code, enter the 8 digit Unlock Code.
When I insert a non-compatible SIM card, it asks me for the unlock code, then says "Network unlock request unsuccessful". If I try the unfreeze code, it gives the same message. Then I try the network unlock code again and it gives the same message again.
I have tried everything in the email they sent me, but nothing works.
I refuse to format my phone for this! I have so many settings that would be lost.
Is there anything you can do to help me get this working, or explain to me the correct digits to dial in the dialer to get the mysterious "network unlock screen" to appear? I repeat, the digits above such as #7465625*638*UNLOCKCODE# do not work.

thought i could help you unlock it directly without need for unlock code, but just found out it needs more than just a usb cable. I am helping out other guys via remote usb connection.
In your case, I cant really help coz ur phone is new on the playground so it needs sophisticated methods to direct unlock it.

Unlock issues with DN4 rom 4.4.4 with att unlock code

So I have managed to unlock it with the unlock code from att.
I used this access number to get into service mode
*#0011#
back
input key Q
back
input key 0000
and just wait
it will bring you into the service mode.
So I have a att note 2 running DN4 rom 4.4.4.
I requested a unlock code from att. Tried to enter unlock code ,unlock unsuccessful message appears .
Tried some steps I found online but still nothing.
When I dial *#197328640# it says connection problem invalid mmi code.
any thoughts?
I'm using an active t-mobile card to unlock device.

Most of the time, when having problems unlocking, you need to go back to stock rom of the device. Then if the problem still exists, you most likely have the wrong unlock code.

N910P - I have MSL code but no prompt to unlock? please help

Hi All,
Please help.
Goal:
- unlock N910P for domestic US (I have MSL code from Sprint)
- do not want to root
Details:
- account and phone is paid
- Sprint gave me MSL saying it is my unlock code
- 5.1.1
- has been reset to factory and cleared cache
- I watched a few videos saying that I need to put a different carrier sim in and it will prompt for the MSL code to unlock
- I have tired 4 sim from T-Mobile and AT&T, 2 are working sim from working phone... none will prompt for code
- I tried ##3282# which get me to manual settings but I am not sure if I should mess with it
- invalid sim for T-Mobile and AT&T but works fine for Sprint
- I read that it may work with Kit Kat but I cannot downgrade without root
Thank you all in advance.
Please let us not get into the debate of carriers and GSM/CDMA. I just need help with the unlock portion. Thank you again. :highfive:

You couldnt downgrade to kitkat even if you were rooted. Youre on a locked bootloader.

yup, I concluded that after a few hours of testing... tried several rev of Odin3 and several OEM ROM... all fail to auth... was hoping as last option that root will work but didn't plan for that route...
Are there any options to get the prompt for domestic SIM/carrier unlock? Whether auto or manually?
The only paid unlock service I see for N910P that guarantee it is on eBay... are those trustworthy?

I get that. I am, otoh, straddling that fence atm. I prefer root, but I just got the Note 4 so I spend my day cursing at the ads and playing "I wish, I wish..." Soon, very soon. :fingers-crossed:

Only way to get it running is root and GT

I know it has been a whie since you posted this, but the first method prompted me for network unlock key but the key sprint provided me was only six digits. and they actually provided a second one after the first was unsucessful. the second had no better results. Any hints?

I'm sure there's some way to use your msl to unlock, but I don't know how.
But if you give up, I used www.idoneapps.com
I used him and worked flawless. They have good support too.
I think you need to flash pc1 firmware or below to unlock but after you unlock you can flash anything else. As long as you don't disturb your efs partition you'll be unlocked. (But this requires root)
Hope you figure it out without having to pay, but if not, they're great.

Here , this will take all your problems away ?
#7465625*638*#
Unless ... for some weird aşş reason it doesn't work with your phone ? Then just look up on Google a secret dial code to force the network unlock code input for whatever phone you have
