Instructions for unlocking from ATT

My wife talked to a tech at ATT and he gave her some instructions for unlocking her SX56.
1) Insert a blank SIM
2) Power up unit and enter the 8 digit unlock code.
I think these instructions were either incomplete or bogus. When we put in a blank SIM the SX56 asked for a PIN number and not an unlock code. The unlock code did not work in the place of he PIN number.
Is it possible to unlock this way?

I dont know what you mean by a blank sim, just put a sim from any other provider. I think the pin you were asked for is your sim card pin number, if you enter this wrongly too many times it will block the sim. You need to enter your pin, then you will be asked for sid code, that is where you enter the code.

You have tried 8 times wait for new try...

I recevied my unlock code for my wizard but I have problem to enter it.
when I insert sim card for different provider i get the unlock window but it says "you have tried 8 times wait for new try". I waited serveral mintes but it's still the same.
Is there any workaround for this problem? How long must I wait to be able to enter the unlock code?
many thanks in advance

you need to do this with the sim supplied with the wizard
is it a CID unlock code or a provider unlock code
provide some more info please

provider unlock code i optained using lokiwiz.

any idea !!??

touch hd counter blocked 12 tries entered

hello i've got an touch hd that has the sim password counter blocked all 12 tries has been entered.i have the unlock code now how can i enter it?is there any way to bipass this?the phone is powered on with a non accepted sim for almost 3 days.
any ideea?

ring your provider and they will send you the unlock code.
... presuming the phone isnt tagged as lost/stolen they should be able to assist.

the unlock code for sim I already have it but I cant enter it, there were too many codes entered before..../ do you mean there is an master code or something like this for the counter blocked that the operator have it...???

If you've entered the PUK code wrong 10 times in a row, the SIM will have destroyed itself. You need a new SIM.

man is not puk code the network code for unlock the phone has been enterred 12 times wrong and now i cant enter the right code i have a screen shot with the message displayed by phone but i don t have the access to upload it

[Q] WM6.1 Simlock Brute force

Hello
I recently bought myself Samsung SCH-I770 phone which has Windows Mobile 6.1 operation system.
My problem is that it's network/sim locked. I cannot use it with my country SIM card.
Though, there's code entering option under "Phone->Settings->Security-SIM Lock". 6 digit code and it gives the answer "Lock code and Input code do not match." after I enter the WRONG code. I think it checks the code which is written somewhere on the memory of phone.
Now - my question is. Would it be possible to BRUTE FORCE the password using that option? 6 digit code (numbers) is only 1 million possibilities - shouldn't take THAT long for a program to process.
Thank you in advance,

PS: I have checked unlock softwares which are posted on this forum, but non seemed to be working.

Most phones lock permanently after 10-30 failed attempts to unlock. Some don't, so if you have good typing skills and memory, trying all combinations will only take you a "little while".

So critical. I think follow instructions of 'stepw'

Isn't there a risk that somebody might "try" to unlock the phone and it will be locked forever? How could one unlock the phone from being locked forever?
Like PUK code for SIM card, when SIM is locked by trying to enter PIN codes too many.

[Q] Can't Network Unlock even with Code

I got my unlock code from ATT but I can not seem to find a way to unlock it, either with the ATT sim in or a TMobile one. Previously using methods here on XDA I was able to unlock the SIM lock; the Subset lock; the SP lock and the Corporate lock. Going into Diagnosis all of those locks are disabled. However, the Network lock is still enabled. When I put in the unlock code and excute, I keep getting the message of incorrect password.
How can I remove the Network lock???

Have you tried this? (Network Unlock section on Wiki)
Also, how many times have you tried already? You might need an "unfreeze" code if the unlock code provided was wrongly introduced 3 times... (which is different from the NCK code)

My Sim Lock already reads Disabled in the Diagnosis Menu. Only Network Lock shows as Enabled.

Same thing buddy. SIM PIN is not SIM (un)Lock
Quoting from the wiki:
How to unlock with code (IMEI dependent):
1. Open Diagnosis (enter ##634# in dialer)
2. In Diagnosis type *#7465625# to enter Locks menu (carrier/network etc) and enter in "Network Lock"
3. In the "Enter NCK" box type your code and press Execute
That should unlock your phone.

I guess I was unclear. That is EXACTLY what I have been doing. When in Network Lock and type the code in NCK, then press Execute, I get the message Incorrect Password.
What password? Where?

Looks like you've tried this too many times and you need an unfreeze code or a MCK code.
PCK - Provider Code Key (SIM lock)
NCK - Network Lock (Network Lock - IMEI dependant)
SCK - Special Code Key (Provided/set by manufacturer)
SPCK - Special Provider Code Key (Master unlock code by device carrier)
MCK - Misuse Code Key (Un/Freeze code)
I think AT&T can only give you the NCK. You might be able to drop it in the shop and ask to get it unlocked (they do have the SPCK) but they might refuse.
