I can unlock your mobile for you but a 3G sim will not work in a 2G phone.

 

I c.... So its basically useless??? I am going to have to buy a 3G handset to use in it. That doesn't sound good!!! If u can unlock it I'll be grateful tho, cheers

1. Insert a non accepted sim, most times it will show "Phone Restricted"
2. Press the UNDO option
3. You should see a box that says enter restriction code.
4. Enter the code given and then press (OK)

Press * 3 times fast for (p)
Press * 4 times fast for (w)
Press * 2 times fast for (+)

 

I have tried the given code but it doesn't work?? Is it because there is 3UK sim in there ?? Thanx

Jimmy

 

Yes, you will need another sim like Vodafone, T-Mobile, O2 etc...then the code will work

 

I forgot to ask what was the error???

 

It just says code error. Thats it. I tried without sim card and it reported cannot undo restriction.
Its wearin thin!!!
I'll c if wor lass has an old 3 phone going spare??
Seems me only hope now doesn't it.......
Thanx for your help thus far tho!!

When you get that message it means you have used all your attempts at unlocking the phone. You will have to send/take it to a professional unlocker / shop.

You should only try the codes we give once and once only!!!

 

Bollocks.....!! Never mind. Cheers
