I bought a sim unlock code for my Here and entered it however it doesn't seem to have worked. The problem is that if I get a new one I now have nowhere to enter the code as when I put a new sim card in it just doesn't recognize it, Is there a way of getting the sim unlock box back up?

So I just got my Magic, and I have not received my unlock code yet. But I was able to get into the phone and mess around while I wait. Now I can't seem to get back to the screen where I will enter the unlock code.
Anyone know how to get here?
Right now it says "no sim card in phone, insert a sim card"
Thanks
Insert any SIM other than what the phone is locked to, voila unlock code screen.

Insert a sim card. you will get it.
I got an unlock code from Vodafone. I followed the instructions, put in a different carriers SIM (Orange), boots the phone up and there's no prompt to unlock code. The phone boots normally and says no sim card is in. Has anyone had similar problems? Rang both VF and HTC and were unable to help! Does anyone have an idea of how to bring up the 'unlock' prompt?
Once you unlock the phone, it should bring up a keypad, or you should be able to bring up the keypad to dial in the unlock code. Hit OK afterwards, and it'll unlock the SIM. Just did it now.

I put in the new sim card, the phone boots as normal. I get no prompt to unlock it, neither does the keypad come up. It just says I have no sim inserted.
I have the same problem,when I put other sim not asking for unlocking code,do u find how to enter unlocking code?
I have the same issue. Did anyone ever get it figured out?
I'd really appreciate some help
Did you put in the sim card the wrong way?
Sent from my S-OFF Bell Canada HTC Legend.
So i purchased sim unlock code online for my hd2 which is running WP7. I inserted the AT&T sim card and turned the phone on. The first thing phone requested pin, i entered it and it said that pin accepted but the phone is still locked. Every time im trying to call it asks for pin again and it says pin required. What should i do to get it working??
I have the exact same issue. Anyone? I've tried apn settings, rebooting, etc.
I fixed this! If you load android on an sd and boot it and then put in the lock code it will unlock your device. I used Copenhagen's Gingerbread. After that, boot into WP7 and it should display your carrier name. Try this Wolk and tell me what you think, and click thanks if you think I helped at all.
How did you do this? Im having trouble with only one sd-card 2gb
Hey guys
I purchased a Telus Optimus 7 phone and I'm trying to unlock it. I got the code from a specific website... but when I put in my SIM card (from another provider) the phone prompts that "the sim is locked and you need a PUK". I got the PUK from my service provider but when I enter it... it gives me a SIM ERROR message. I know that the phone is suppose to prompt me to "enter pin" but it doesnt do it. Am I doing something wrong ?
Everyone looking to unlock their LG Optimus 7, heed my warning!
DO NOT ENTER A WRONG UNLOCK CODE MORE THAN 2 TIMES! IT WILL LOCK ITSELF ON THE WRONG 3RD ATTEMPT.
If you do, it's really locked and needs to be either re-sent to LG/carrier or completely re-flashed. The PUK it's asking is "Phone Unlock Key", not "PIN Unlock Key". Which means the phone itself is "locked" not NCK locked.
Btw, same thing happened to me.
whoa... think that in his case is the Personal unlocking code, not the Phone unlocking code... if u put the original SIM card the phone works? if so, or the SIM that ask you the PUK is fried or you just really don't have unlocked the phone
I've purchased an unlock code but it's asking for a PUK Key as well. How do I figure this out? Google hasn't helped. Is this a key Telus can provide? Or do I need a new SIM card (could mine have some kind of lock on it?)
Thanks!
I have tha same problem, does any one how to make my phone works, or to find a PHONE unlock key(PUK) without contacting AT&T (the original's phone carrier) because I don't use AT&T service, but I want to unlock my phone ... my LG quantum says ''your phone is locked, contact you service provider for an unlock code''
I have a Rogers Samsung Focus and I purchased an unlock code. When I insert my Fido sim card it doesn't prompt me to enter a unlock code but my phone says "sim error". I tried using the secondary option "#7465625*638*CODE#" and it doesn't do anything not even invalid code. Am I missing a step? Please help
that's strange. rogers & fido are basically the same network now. I've been able to swap sim cards between them without unlocking. maybe there is a problem with your sim. sorry I cant help more.
