Get your unlock code and punch this into the dialer #7465625*638*# then enter your code

Hello All.
I just moved back home and brought back with me a LG Quantum. I had really wanted the HTC Arrive from Sprint, but the lack of GSM capability was the deal breaker.
I purchased the LG Quantum SIM unlock code, but when I tried inputting the code, I got a PUK code error. I understand this a Unlock code that is associated with only the SIM card. So before I attempt unlocking again, my questions are:
1. Should I get another SIM card from my home network and re-input the code?
2. Has the PUK Code blocked the phone from accepting any SIM's other than AT&T?
3. IN the event that I have to get a PUK code, is this code specific to a SIM Card, the IMEI of the phone or AT&T?
Thanks for your help.
As i understand your trying to unlock the phone so you can use any SIM card?
1.No contact the service provider to get the puk code but i find it unusual that you would get a puk code when trying to unlock it. That usually happens when your try to enter a SIM pin in to many times which could have happend. in which case you have to contact that service provider to retrieve that PUK code.
2.The puk code is requested after the SIM pin was entered in to many times incorectly.
3.The PUK code is specific to the SIM card.
Thanks in advance for your time.
I consider myself somewhat savvy. I have searched all over for an answer before asking:
I bought a SM-G870A and I have tried putting an H2O SIM card with no unlock screen. I tried two other SIMS with no unlock screen. I assumed it was unlocked.
I tried selling this phone to a guy who was going to use it in Mexico and told him it was not SIM locked. He tells me that when he puts his SIM card in it asks for an unlock code.
I am lost as to why it would suddenly ask him for an unlock code but all my SIMS did not. I have not been able to see him try in person yet.
Why would I be able to put SIMS in the phone and not get asked for an unlock code. I thought that meant it was unlocked?
Thanks for the help!
I just went through this "sorta" thing when I unlocked my t-mobile s5. I took out my t-mobile sim and put in a metropcs pcs sim and got no unlock screen upon reboot. I put in a cricket wireless sim and upon reboot I got the unlock screen, which I quickly put in my unlock code.
I'm assuming since metropcs is owned by t-mobile, that is why it didn't ask for an unlock code.
Is h20 owned by at&t, if so, that could be why the phone didn't ask for an unlock code when you put in the h20 sim

Thanks for the feedback. There could be something like that going on.
h20 uses the ATT network.
I tried a Simple Mobile (T-mobile) and no unlock code prompt
I tried a US Cellular LTE card -- would not connect to network -- no unlock code prompt
I tried a Verizon LTE card -- Same as US Cellular
I am stumped as to why this would happen. I would think a locked phone would not accept those cards without an unlock code prompt.
Hey guys just purchased a code from cellunlocker.net and was wondering can I still unlock the phone if I don't have a foreign sim card? Just switched to Verizon so I no longer have service in the ATT sim. Is there a way to manually bring up the screen where you input the code?
I was given the unlock code for my s8 plus 955u by Comcast (I'm a Comcast dealer, and got it cheeeeeeeep) but it didn't seem to do the job. When I popped in a sim, it asked for the network code, and the supplies unlock code did not work, so I attempted to use the unfreeze code they supplies me as well, and it accepted it, removing the prompt forever after. The issue now is a message in the notifications thast says the sim is not an xfinity sim. Any ideas?
Try using the dialer code #7465625*638*# and put your code in there
I have a Sprint Galaxy S10+ and purchased the unlock codes for it.
I popped in my ATT SIM card and I was never prompted to enter any of the “unlock codes”.
At the top of screen, it said “Invalid Sim”
Do anyone know how to get the screen where I have to enter my unlock codes?
Thanks

Invalid sim normally means the sim is not working. It should bring up a pop box asking you to input network unlock code.

Okay..I will try a working sim from a different carrier.
In the past, I just inserted a different sim from a different carrier. Regardless if it’s activated or not.
But I will try a working sim and report back in a few
