Shutdown the device then repair your device through the se update service it will definitely work .
follow the instructions on se update service software to repair your device.

Oh ... that's really bad !
Phone just bought, so you may go back to the store and ask for help or another phone there?
Ok, a hard reset will erase more than only the "unblock" code.
As you do not have any personal data on the phone, and you won't lose anything, you can just try to reset your phone.
Good luck !
Give it a try but Ive read that sometimes it wont work because its not personal data its a security setting.Hope it works but id be doughtful or there wouldnt be any point in putting one in if it was that easy to get rid of.If you know the firmware you have you could root it and format the system.

Take it to a Samsung service center with proof its yours sales bill etc and they reset your handset... Some do charge for this service..
I can't go to service..so a hard reset will delete all?
Or what i can do ?!

Well is your bad at the end of the day...
Look at it this way you may of found said fone it may of been stolen what ever the case may or may not be you can enter a service center with proof of purchase Samsung will unblock and unlock fones as said some change for this service all depends on your location....To me it seem strange you went out and bought your fone but cant get to or ship the fone to Samsung.
As it stands now you cant use that fone so even if you shipped it to Sammy you still be withoiut a phone no matter which way you look at it...
What exactly is a 'deblock code'? The code when unlocking the phone or a network unlock code? Just a curious passer by.
Lol bro,i'm now in another country and i can't go to samsung
Yeah,Unlocking code
So you bought the phone and left the country in the same day
Sounds like you robbed a banked.Are you talking about the device pin code or another blocking code like go locker?
Devince...
Yesterday i bought(at 12:00 Germany) and today i arrived in my country..
Yes,pin unlocker phone no go locker
Why don't you just root it and use one of the many apps that are available to unlock it? That's what I did and it worked just fine. If you do proceed to do it, make sure you back up your EFS!

If its a device PIN Lock then a Factory Reset wont work because a Factory Reset wipes personal data and a Device Pin Lock is a security setting.You do however have a few options,
1.Find your receipt and find a Service Centre in your country and HOPE (and probably pay) they will unlock it as Samsung are global.
2.Root your device with a CF-Root kernel and format it completely in "mounts and Storage".This formats System,Data and Cache but you need to know what firmware it has to use the correct kernel and not brick your phone.(differing reports of this working but mostly it does).
3.Root and use and app from the market as posted from the user prior to my post but once again the problem of the correct kernel pops-up.
You main disadvantage is that its a security thing.They are put there to piss people off.Only its a bugger when its the owner

It's an unlocker (with points,need to do a lane or something)
I think i will go to an service..
But,who i can do the 2 ? Cf root?
I'm noob...
You need to know the Firmware it has to match the kernel.The rest I can guide you BUT if you dont not know the Firmware or kernel you WILL BRICK your phone.
Hello all,
Got an xperia x10 of a friend, now im trying to do a hard reset on it by doing this -
Turning it off
Hold the bottom left and right key and then press the on button to try and get it to go into the bios thingy? (not sure what they call in on phones)
and it wont work it just turns on??
Getting annoying as im also thinking about rooting the phone and putting jelly bean or ICS on it but I cant as I cant get into the bios thing
Help would be great please
Sorry its an xperia x10i if that makes any difference
for the "BIOS" thing. Do you mean recovery?
if you don't have it then just get it via flashtool
There is no hard reset n x10 only soft reset,or do it by this way:
1 From the Xperia 10 Home screen, tap the applications bar.
2 Tap Settings > SD card & phone storage > Factory data reset > Reset phone.
3 Enter your screen unlock pattern.
4 Tap Erase everything.
or just use pc companion to wipe everything
Hello, Cheers for the replys, yes that's the recovery I meant, but hmm im new to all of this.
and cheers will give that wiping a go..
So my phone is currently on 2.3.3
all standard,
Can one of you or someone help me with the following,
First I need to unblock it as it is currently locked to virgin or tmobile I think and I would like to use either o2 or orange,
I would then like to Root it and then install ICS or JB on it
I have never done this before so as much help would be really appreciated
Thank
You need to find a shop or someone who uses setool 2 to unlock the phone as it will unlock the bootloader at the same time, if you use any other software to unlock the phone you wont have any network if you unlock the bootloader afterwards the only ways to have a signal is by unlocking with setool 2 or via the unlock code from the network provider, once your bootloader is unlocked you can proceed to flash an ics/jb rom just follow the instructions posted on which ever rom you want to install.

Hi everyone
I will try to introduce my story, please I need some help:
I have a Xperia 10 , Android 9.0 , it was Rooted through Magisk and everything is fine...notwithstanding, Google Pay does not work..,
Then, I hid root with xposed+Rootcloak to hide it successfully, but Google pay does not still work , now the reasong showed on the screen is because the bootloader is unlocked.... so I definitely want to Lock it again.
In many devices if you lock the bootloader again you wont be able to modify your phone but the root will be activated at least.
HOWEVER, in Xperia devices ( bq and xiaomi seem to be the same) if you lock the phone again this process elimitates everything when you do it..., the phone resets everything erasing all .... and loosing the root as well....
So , Is there any chance to lock my xperia 10 without loosing root???? How Could I do it????
Many thanks in advance for your invaluable support and help.
Kind regards
Hello there.Here is a weird problem.One of my students brought me his mobile phone (Doogee y7).He said he put the pattern wrongly for some times and now even if we put it right,the phone doesn't recognize it.I suggested factory reset BUT even if we did,when the phone starts again it asks for the pattern.He doesn't remember the email password even if we know the email address.(I ll try again to login to gmail) but until then,is there a way to flash cwm or stock rom again so I can unlock it?I have to say that unfortunately USB debugging is not enabled..any help will be much appreciated even if I don't think he ll have any luck with it.(one of the biggest retail stores in Greece told him that the phone is dead and nothing can be done.)
Good afternoon. I forgot the password for lockscreen. (and yes I'm not normal) I did not attach importance to this password, and I thought that a hard reset from recovery will always help me. But still, how can I restore it? Naturally, I did not have time to unlock the bootloader. Technical support says only their service center can help me. I just live in such a place that it’s impossible for me to get to them. Are there any solutions?
Sorry for google translate =)
Restore what?
If you don't have the password for the lockscreen it is very difficult if not impossible to gain access to the device.
Repair centre can reinitialize your device by completely reflashing it (low level flash) which also, naturally, wipes the device clean.
