How to tell if my 8525 is locked (sim i assume) to cingular. the sercive is expired and I would put a different sim in if I can determine if it is locked.
Put a new sim in, if it works its not locked, if it doesn't, it is....
If it is read this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
You should be able to unlock it...
Cheers...

Hi there,
I have my SIMLock Code for my Voda v1640, and I put in a Virgin SIMcard, entered the code, and it said "SIM Unlocked" and then worked great.....
Just wondering, do I need to keep my SIMLock code handy (I have it on an SD card at the minute) if I use a different SIM (ie try and use an O2 SIM) or does entering your SIMLock code completely remove SIMLock and never have to be entered again?
TIA

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
which begs the question: how and why did you obtain an unlock code for a non-orange phone?
just wondering if it is working on my phone and do i need to connect my phone to my laptop with activesync? and do i need to put my new simcard while unlocking it or my cingular sim first then new sim after unlocking. but i thinks i must put the new sim so that i can pput the unlock code. but i need your advices. "i will leave it to the experts"
I relocked my phone to bell because I needed to exchange my earphones and now when I try to unlock it wont work. Basically, when I turn the phone on with any sim card it just shows a no service icon and the phone thinks there is no sim no pop up saying invalid sim. It does not ask for a code. When I put the code in via #7465625*638*# it says unlock unsuccesful but when I put the same code to lock it to mcc/mnc using *7465625*638*# it works.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
ummm... first thought, why did u relock it to exchange ear phones? i exchanged the device itself when it was fully unlocked.
back to topic. u might have to exchange the device.
If you need help msg me
Okay first off all I think I posted in the wrong forum sorry. And I figured out that I was putting the sim card in wrong . But the underlying problem is there it is locked to Rogers now I cannot completely unlock just lock it to different providers.
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''
