Hi everybody
My Desire X SIM asks me PIN many times a day, even if my phone is only set on a table and don't move.
Any idea with this problem ?
Thank you

must mean your sim card is loosing network connection and authentication. if this has not happened with while using the same SIM on another phone, then your DX is very security tight. should check the security then...

Hi everyone.
I'm hoping someone can help me. I recently recieved my X10 and was setting everything to my liking when i accidentaly entered the wrong pin in the security section. Now it's telling me "SIM card PUK-locked" i'm a bit stuck.
At no point have i tried to put the PUK in so my sim can't be completely fried and infact i don't know where to put the PUK in because there's no option for it.
I'd rather not have to get a new sim card (Like the nice lady at Vodafone customer services suggested) so i'm hoping someone can solve my problem? Thanks in advance to anyone who can assist
do you have the PUK unlock code? it should be on the plastic tab that came with the sim card. You might be able to recover that way, otherwise the only other way is a new sim
I have got a PUK code i just don't have anywhere to type the code into. Only option i've got is to make an emergency call and i even tried putting it in there LoL
you can always take the sim card to a phone you know how to get to the puk code unlock with don it many times with phones where I didn't knew how to get the puk into it
Thanks, I had been thinking about that. Unfortunately i'm at work and don't have access to another phone and won't for a good few hours. Thought there might have been a way around it.
you work alone ?
last time I just borrowed the nearest guys phone and put in my sim and typed in the puk and that was it
For instance i've been reading up on another android that you had to goto "Emergency Call" and then type in ** and then a code before entering your PUK before it gets accepted. thougth there may have been something similar involved here.....
I do work alone in my office / workshop LoL. I have some staff on the front kiosk but they can't help. One doesn't believe in mobile phones and thinks there terrible things, another never carries hers with her and the third doesn't part with hers for even a second. Strange bunch
Oh i have to wait 5 minutes between posts, didn't notice that LoL.
Ok i managed to get it sorted by switching phones in the end. Thanks for the help guys. Very muchly appreciated.
Just to answer the question. In the manual there's a guide:
**05*[PUK-code]*[new PIN-code]*[new PIN-code]#
See now i actually tried that but it didn't work i ended up just swapping phones and sure enough it let me deal with the problem. How odd. Thanks though
Did same thing, puk locked, got an unlock code straight away on the phone from my provider (orange UK), and he tried to help me put it in but it seems there is no way on the/my x10 handset. I had to put the sim in a different handset (my old P1) and then enter puk code to unlock the sim.
More for faq.
need your help seriously

I have a TMo phone unlocked with a WIND Mobile sim. I have already PUK unlocked the SIM when I first use the phone. However, I randomly getting PUK locked message in the morning. I restart the phone. Message goes away. I don't get it. Is it something wrong with the SIM, the provider, or the phone? I can't find any information on that regard online. I do have the SIM PUK code from my provider.
Use the PUK code that Wind gave you.
i did but the warning screen pops up after a day or two. That is the part i don't get.
Puk codes are generated from the Sim card, suppose to happen when the security pin on the Sim card is entered wrong to many times.. There's also more than one pin and puk, usually referred to pin 1 and 2, which generates puk 1 and puk 2.
my guess is if it keeps happening, you might want to replace your sim.

About a week ago when I tried to use my phone it said no SIM card inserted. The SIM was in and unlocked as I had used the phone about an hour before without any problem. I rebooted the phone but still it said no SIM so I powered off, removed the SIM, cleaned it and tried again. Well after about an hour of messing around the phone started working normally again. I didn't do anything more about it and wrote it off as a glitch.
I woke up this morning looked at my phone at it was asking for my PUK unlock code. It seems as though the phone must have rebooted overnight or something and now it's asking for a PUK. Why would it do that? I can't unlock it as my copy of the PUK code has worn so I cannot see all the numbers any more so I'll have to go to my network provider.
My question what could be wrong with the phone that is starting to not recognise the SIM? The issue last week must have been a prelude to this and it's pointing to something failing in the hardware. Any ideas what can be causing this?
Did you flash any ROMs or Kernels? Because that may be the problem usually.

Please give more informationhone Model,Kernel,ROM...
Sorry should have given more information about the phone.
It's a UK GT-I9100 model running stock 2.3.4. I haven't flashed any Roms since updating to 2.3.4 over a year ago. I've been holding out for the UK Jellybean which I've just downloaded ready to go once I sort out this problem.
I think I read somewhere that moisture on the usb port may cause this problem but I can't find that any more and I'm not sure if I'm remembering it correctly either. Although, my phone has never been submerged or even got wet in the rain so I don't think it's moisture.
I just tried putting another SIM into the phone and it works fine. As soon as I put my SIM back in it asks for the PUK. I guess I'll need to go speak to my network provider. Would still like to know why I started having these SIM problems.

Dude,I think your SIM card got blocked.Go to your carrer provider,and ask them to unblock it
I went to my network provider and got the PUK and unlocked the SIM. I asked if they had blocked it or if had been blocked and they said no. They said I must have entered the SIM pin incorrectly which isn't the case as the phone was one and the SIM unlocked before I went to sleep. I put it into flight mode and the next morning when I looked at the phone it was asking for the PUK. That with the previous issue where the SIM wasn't being recognised points to something not quite right either with the hardware or software.
I'm going to be updating to 4.2.1 no that the UK version is available and see if the problems still continue.
Hello!
ive received my Truesmart today, ive ordered the EU 2100Mhz 1Gb/8GB Version Dev. Edition. I inserted the Micro Sim and the System recognizes that there is a sim and show me the input fields for the pin. Ive typed the pin several times and tried to unlock the sim, but nothing happens, no error wrong pin or something... it just happen nothing!
does anyone have a idea wtf this is?
I am thinking this might be due to you needing a correct APN setting set for your carrier.

the problem is i cant set the apn settings without unlocked sim card.... :crying:
oh damn im an idiot, i got the wrong simcard -_-
tried a new and all is fine
Yesterday I received my Mi10, what a beautiful device. But I ran into a problem today:
While I was navigating in Google Maps my phone suddenly switched to lockscreen and I had to re-enter my sim pin. Like I was doing a hot swap. Only then did the phone reconnect to the network. This has happened once but I've never had this with another phone before. The sim card is new, clean and carefully inserted.
I hope this was a software bug and not a hardware issue...do you guys recommend requesting a device swap (other mi10) already? Is this a know problem?
Happend to me today also , when i did start my phone after recharge might be a software bug
I bought MI10 three days ago and this morning it lost the SIM connection and there is no way for making it recognized by MI10.
The same SIM works fine on my old MI6 and no other SIM works on MI10.
I have also tried to hard reset it, but nothing changes.
Do you think it is a hardware problem? After 3 days?
I have same problem, mi Mi 10 isn't reading my sim card anymore, looks like HW problem because it is sometimes working but I have to try to insert it maybe 30 or more times
And from today it is not reading sim card anymore.
