Are you entering the code with the original SIM card in the phone? I don't believe that it will work unless the original SIM that the IEMI number is linked to is in the phone when you enter the code. Once the code is accepted you can then put a different SIM in.

Are you leaving the original SIM the phone came with in it when you enter the code? Unless the IEMI has been linked to a SIM already either by AT&T or other provider, I don't think the code will work. I am pretty sure when you enter the code the SIM is validated against the IEMI it was registered to. Once you use the original SIM and unlock it you should be able to put your new SIM in then.

I'm having the same problem as well. but if you have the original sim, it wouldn't ask for an unlock code in the first place. it only asks for the unlock code because of the invalid sim.

check your unlock code guys and make sure they are 20 digits. mine was 21 which is why i was getting the error. luckily i figure out which number was wrong on the first try and now my phone is unlocked. good luck fellas

You should be using SIM from another carrier then att. Could be your code is incorrect. Phone back and confirm.

Thank you buddy, you are right. ATT offered me an wrong code. I just contacted with him few minutes ago, and he offered me an right code.

finished
The problem was a wrong code from AT&T

Missing number
Same problem here with a Lumia 52o Vodafone. Just added a number 1 to the code sent by the Operator and solved the problem Thanks for the help

You have your sim blocked. When you put more than 3 times wrong pin the sim card is locked and you need to put your puk to unlock the sim. Just find your puk code for the sim card normally it come with the card bid if you don have it just call your provider and tell them you wost your puk code or just you never had one.
For unlock the phone for other provider you need to quit your original sim card an put for other provider then you enter you unlocking code.
Hi Bojan,
thanks but I tryed with the sim puk and also with teh sim puk2 but without success.
Network PUK is not the same as simcard PUK.
It looks like it's needed when someone has locked phone to use only with one simcard. This code can't be cleared by hardreset or new rom.

Big K, why 2 unlock codes? Where you found the second one?
Currently there is only one solution for SIM Blocked message. You have to use turbosim/xsim card.
I wrote a program that generates scripts for EasyClicker, which I run with MyMobiler. Entering codes this way is much faster than typing them on TG01. Unfortunately checking all 8-digit codes will take about 555 days
There is thread on some russian forum about network puk & G900. I'll try to find it and post it here.

My tg01 history:
I bought the phone on ebay, in latvia and come with sim + tornado sim, no signal, ols sim, just for example. With my three usim phone don't work, now I received an UK sim from orange, all ok, phone work in roaming. I got the puk code from my orange UK account but this one don't deblock my phone with other sim card. So, now I'm waiting for the Orange answer about my sim block. When I have news I post here. Thanks a lot

You need the sim ulock code. The cheapest is from [email protected] wit 10 pound send from pay pal and 25min late you have your unlocking code.
Be careful when you use sim like a turbo sim, usim and etc....
If You ask orange for network puk they will answer about sim card puk that You already have.
I have orange UK sim card and it's working too. With any other card I have SIM Blocked message.
bojan6, I have unlock code from Vitamise, but I can't enter it. I have to enter Network PUK first, then probably I'll be able to enter unlock code. So gino70, if You buy code from Vitamise it will be useless unless You enter Network PUK.

I have a Vitamise code but doesn't work. I think unlock sim and sim blocked are two different thinks, two level of phone blocking.

Nobody know what mean Network PUK?

Because I saw that the turbo sim can break your phone with time.
That strange because a lot of people had their code from this guy and me to.
And if you put your orange sim card and its work the problem is not coming from the mobile. Chek the sim you use not from orange the other one. I think that is the problem. Try with sim from other providers and dont use turbo sim or other similar with it. Then post here what's happen.
I've tried about 10 different sim cards - always SIM Blocked.
Network PUK request appears on motorola mpx200/220 after 3 unsuccessful attempts to enter unlock code. Leaving phone for 8 hours at code entering screen works for motorola but not for tg01

And you are sure you have the correct unlocking code? When you asc for your unlocking code vitamise you give him the correct IMEI and original provider.
Can you post what error msg you have when you put the code?

[Q] How to sim-unlock orange uk mozart?

Hello,
It is my first post, I just bought my htc 7 mozart.
I want to unlock it, so i could use my polish carrier sim card (carrier name Play).
I have sim-unlock code that i got after giving my imei number.
My question is when do i write this sim-unlock code?
Many quides on net say that i should insert my sim card (not orange uk but polish play) and after switching on the phone will be displayed area for entering this code.
When i turn device on i get information that there is no sim or it is invalid and i have 2 options :
1 click 'emergency call' (in this area) i cant type my unlock code.
2 click 'close' and device continues booting and after few sec i get main wp7 screen.
So i'm not asked for my unlock code.
Where in this phone is place to type sim unlock code?
I've seen some people here unlocked their htc mozarts with code, could someone write please how it can be done?
I say once again it's locked on orange uk.
Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks in advance guys.
Will debranding/flashing help?
There must be an option to unlock it via code...
When i use my polish card or no card at all in mainscreen of wp7 i see a cell 'no sim' i click it and again emergency calls only.
Where to type this sim-unlock code?
When I unlocked my Orange UK phone, it asked for a pin when I inserted my O2 sim card. This was when I entered the unlock code and after that it's been fine.
I don't see why an overseas SIM would be different, but one way round this would be to buy a UK PAYG sim from eBay or similar, then use that to unlock, then use your sim after that?
IT'S DONE
I was inserting sim card wrong way, when i had put it properly i was asked for unlock code.
I have my mango beta on it, i have to test many applications now
if someone have any questions about how to update to mango pls write ill try help.
Hello,
I'm new in WP7, I just got an HTC 7 Mozart, locked to Swiss Orange. So I wonder if is possible to unlock for free, or is there any specific tool for that. Any help would be appreciated.

SIM UNLOCK issue

Here is my problem:
I am trying to use GoPhone SIM with my Atrix. When I put GoPhone SIM in Atrix it says Invalid SIM card (it should be noted that phone works with normal AT&T SIMs).
Solution attempt #1: I went ahead and ordered unlock code for Atrix on ebay. Got the code.
Put GoPhone SIM inside , dialed #073887* entered the code and failed in unlocking.
Solution attempt#2: I asked AT&T for an unlock code, they gave it to me in two weeks. Entered it ,failure again.
Could it be that my phone is very special Atrix that can not be unlocked even by AT&T?
PS
I also tried unlocking without SIM card, no luck. It says NETWORK UNLOCK REQUEST UNSUCCESSFUL
Take a look at my thread, essentially the same issue. Not certain you can even unlock the Atrix

xt910 locked up

Hi all,
I have a strange problem with my phone. Hope someone will be able to help me.
I was not sure if my phone is unlocked when I came on holiday. Bought and put a different provider sim card and there was no signal. Also showed nothing to type unlocking code, so I thought that maybe something with a new sim card is wrong.
I bought a second card from another provider to be sure. On the screen appeared: enter sim network unlock code or something like that. ok so I have to unlock.
Now the strangest thing. when I put back my old sim card (o2), on the screen appeared again: enter sim network unlock code!
Since then I can not use the phone because it still asks for the unlock code.
I tried to change the soft but still do not have signal and no longer asks for the unlock code. anyone know how to force a window to enter the code?
I tried unlocking code from a cellunlocker but not working and and when i switched on my mobile is showing invalid SIM card.
someone has any ideas of ​​what i can do with it?
sry for my english

ATT>XAA>ATT flash

I flashed my Note 8 when I first got it (before I had the unlock code). I flashed it to XAA/U1. Well, I got the unlock code a few days later and when I popped in a foreign SIM it simply says "Invalid SIM card inserted" "This SIM card is not supported" with no prompt to enter SIM unlock. At the time this was not a huge deal I kept the unlock code and have been using it since. Today I swapped carriers. Now it matters.
Phone is showing model # SM-N950U1.
Bootloader shows Carrier: ATT
Baseband is BRA5
I flashed N950USQU3CRC2_N950UOYN3CRC2_ATT
It still doesn't have the carrier bloat or prompt me to enter a SIM unlock.
Thoughts?

Switching carrier guide to change CSC code to ATT...then flash ATT firmware
Let me give everyone a heads up who may be an idiot and do this.
I had to downgrade from Oreo to BRA8. I had to do the carrier switch and change the CSC file. I then had to flash all AT&T bloat. Then pop my SIM in. Use my unlock code. Then reflash to XAA.
Thanks BlueFox helped me through the whole ordeal. What an effin nightmare. All this was in the name of gaming the carriers for "free" phones.
I am still trying to get my XAA flash going, but this was a solid 5 hours of effort on my part. Shame I will be updating to the S9+ within the next month or so.
