Hello,
I bought an unlocked AT&T Lumia 900. As I inserted my non AT&T SIM, it prompted me for the SIM PIN code. I got the SIM and PUK code from my Network service provider.
Then Itried all the possible combinations and exhausted 10 SIM unlock and 32 PUK attempts. Since then the phone is not accepting any SIM card. It displays SIM Error message. Is there any way I can get my Lumia to work?
Or Is the phone useless now?
Please help.
Thanks

Hi Guys
Can anyone PLEASE help me unlock my phone. it prompts for PUK code when I insert a different sim.
I appreciate the help,
Jonny
There is a unlocker on this very page it enables you to unlock your o2 mini. But PUK code, is when you ahve entered the sim card pin in correct two many times. It should come with your sim card like my german contract phone. If not you can get it from 02, via ringing them up. There is a number on there web site of how to get your puk code.
Then you have to choose a new pin.
long story short:
1.att lumia 900
2.confirmed correct unlock code;
3.flash and add Chinese language before I enter the unlock code;
4.entered the unlock code,didn't work ;tried 10 times but didn't show the 32times PUK requirements like the" Unlocking Lumia 900 -- AT&T SIM/Network Lock Code Is Incorrect - FIXED! "
5.thought it might be the language issue.flashed back to the 7.5 original version. didn't work too
6.now the phone doesn't show up unlock required page.nor the 32 time puk requirements just no-service and emergency call only
7.the non-att sim card is activated and working .
so,it seems strange thing happened, can anyone tell me what can I do ? or how to pull up the 32 times puk page?
Hi there,
I was decieved buying my xperia S from a french operator which was supposed to be free from network locks. Unfortunately it seems not. I'm currently travelling abroad for a few months and i logically bought a local plan with a new SIM. When i inserted the sim in my xperia s, I was asked for a code. Since i believed my phone was unlocked i'm afraid i entered the wrong pin a few times...
Then i asked the company from which i bought the phone to give me the unlock network code. They did, but the number has no effect. I am still asked for PIN network code when i reboot the phone. After looking it up on the net i found that my phone was probably hardlocked. Here's what i found in my phone menu after typing *#*#7378423#*#* :
[X] Network 0
[ ] Network Subset 0
[ ] Service Provider 0
[ ] Corporate 0
[ ] Sim 0
Where should i go grom there? Is there any chance i can use my phone with a different phone operator? (my phone is still working with my french SIM) Can i still hope to unlock the network?
Thx for your help.
Since your phone is still working with your french sim card, my guess is that the other sim card you bought got locked since you entered the wrong pin number too many times. Getting an unlock network code from the operator doesnt change/remove the sim lock as it only removes the network lock off the phone so that you can use it with other operators/providers.
Try getting a new sim card (from the same operator you bought the other one from) and see if it works.

But the new SIM card I inserted had no PIN code activated. How could i PIN lock my phone ?
Edit: the PIN code i was talking about earlier was the Network PIN code when i inserted the new SIM card. I'm afraid i locked this one up
Please HELP ME how to insert unlock code for unlock this smart phone.
My ZTE MAX is from Sprint BOOST operator.
Unlock code is here:
NCK/NP Code : 600914640880
SPCK/SP Code : 642193752180
I insert an unacceptable SIM card to phone, not ask me the unlock code.
Insert Tmobile SIM card, insert PIN code, phone not have signal, and in info operator write "invalid SIM card/Boost Mobile"

Did you ever find a solution? I have the same problem.
I've just bought a used G4 from Music Magpie which is locked to Vodafone. I've put a new Three SIM in it, and was expecting to be prompted for a SIM unlock code, but I'm not. Does anyone know how I can enter a SIM unlock code?
Finally managed to find a solution to display the SIM unlock menu: open the phone app and type this:
2945#*xxx# (where xxx is the model number - 815 in this case)
