Hi, I would like to unlock my phone. It's a Samsung sgh-m110. Provider: Pannon GSM (Hungary) IMEI: 35817601016798/501 Could you give me a code for it, please? Thanks, Istvan
Hi As far as I know there are no free codes for this model. You can unlock it at; http://www.unlocksamsungonline.com/unlocksamsung/M110 You need FTDI usb cable though (this means original cable won't work) With best regards,
BACK UP YOUR FILES BEFORE UNLOCKING This will also bring the phone to default settings 1. First do a CUSTOM reset: *2767*2878# (star 2767 star 2878 hash) turn off the phone 2. take out the battery and sim and put wrong network SIM and insert a half of it, so it won't ask for network password and shows "Insert SIM" message. Now put the battery ,and switch the phone on .(phone shows "Insert SIM" message.) 3.With out turn off the phone push the sim fully in. At this stage the phone is still asking to "Insert SIM" 4. Make a FULL reset by typing: *2767*3855#(star 2767 star 3855 hash) 5. The phone should reboot working with "wrong" sim inside. 6. Make a Change the NCK password to 8 zeros by typing: *7465625*638*00000000*00000000#(star 7465625 star 638 star 8zeros star 8zeros hash) 7. Now Disable network lock By typing: #7465625*638*00000000#(hash 7465625 star 638 star 8zeros hash) Phone is unlocked (check with *#7465625#) If you find that SPLock is still on afterwards follow the below After you do the reset, check and make sure that your network lock is active by pressing *#7465625#. If it isn't active you must use this code to reactivate it, *7465625*638*00000000*00000000#. Then you have to deactivate the sp lock first. To do that you need to input *7465625*77*00000000*00000000#, (this will reset the lock) then you enter #7465625*77*00000000# (to disable the sp lock). Then you disable the network lock #7465625*638*00000000# and the phone is finally unlocked.
okay and can we send the bill to you when you found out your phones imei number is 000000000000 and bluetooth is not working anymore, or when you have the message "phone freeze" on the screen ? if you are willing to refund the repair costs of this then you can try it, this is only working on older models. on new phones it will erase the eprom with all the cal-data so your phone will become a nice paper-weight
I've performed this on two phones purchased from Tesco about two weeks ago no probs. I have also placed these instructions on two other forums where at least 4-5 other people(who have bothered to write back) have successfully perfomed the above instructions with newly purchased phones, no other reports this busting phones. The only thing I can suggest is that you have done something wrong?
Cool - got my Tesco m110 today off eBay, once I figured out to do stage 3 (inserting the SIM without removing the battery) the job was done in about 3 minutes and has worked! Thank you very much! To insert the SIM whilst leaving the battery powered on, I got a paper clip and bent it with a 90 degree angle. Obviously the back of the phone is open, so I held the battery at about a 30 - 40 degree angle out of the battery compartment whilst ensuring firm pressure was applied at the top battery to ensure the contacts at the bottom of the battery were touching. I then used the paper clip to push the 'wrong' SIM firmly into the slot. Fiddly - but not too difficult. Receiving text messages from Vodafone on my previously locked Tesco mobile. Very many thanks.
Hi I also have a vodafone sim. Am having trouble resetting the SP lock. when i type *7465625*77*00000000*00000000# to reset it, i get "Warning, no lock code in SIM". Then when i type #7465625*77*00000000# to disable the sp lock, i get "wrong password" Sorry if this is a newb question, but I am lost as to where to go from here. Thanks
yes and i still get no lock code in sim when trying to reset the sp lock. I presume the "Wrong sim" is the sim that you want to unlock, i.e. in my case the vodafone sim? Thanks
No. The 'right' sim is the the one that the phone works with. The 'wrong' sim is the sim that you have from another phone and you want to work in this locked phone.
its the opposite, depending on how you look at it. I've found doing a custom reset and following the instructions with the other sim works for me finally. In my case the wrong sim is the sim that works in the phone, and the right sim is the one that I want to work in it.
Ah well - try it that way. If it works - great. if it doesn't - try it the other way. That way - at least one way is going to work!
u've followed all the stages of all the methods - and got to the point where the network is unlocked but the SP lock is still on. i get the message that there is no unlock code in the SIM - its with virgin PAYG the virgin SM now works as long as i don't turn the phone off. any ideas anyone ?
Yes - just follow the original instructions including the paragraph at the bottom about the SPlock. If you find that SPLock is still on afterwards follow the below "After you do the reset, check and make sure that your network lock is active by pressing *#7465625#. If it isn't active you must use this code to reactivate it, *7465625*638*00000000*00000000#. Then you have to deactivate the sp lock first. To do that you need to input *7465625*77*00000000*00000000#, (this will reset the lock) then you enter #7465625*77*00000000# (to disable the sp lock). Then you disable the network lock #7465625*638*00000000# and the phone is finally unlocked."
Hi I also have a SGH-M110 locked (austria). Steps 1-4 work fine, but the phone doesn't reboot at all when i reset it-it even doesnt reboot with the original (=unlocked) sim inside; it just shows "Samsung SGH-M110 GPRS Dual Band" and doesn't react until i take out the battery. Has anyone an idea to continue? With best regards Hugo
I finally got my Tesco's M110 unlocked. I found that with the Vodafone SIM, I could not get the SP unlocked. I therefore followed all the instructions again with the Tesco's SIM in. I could then unlock the SP lock and the Network lock I have now put my Spanish Vodafone SIM in, and all seems to be working. Now all I need to work out is why when I plug in the USB cable I bought, I get a "USB Device not recognized" error Thanks M110user
I just wanted to say i recieved a phoned locked to tesco and wanted to use Tmobile, i never had a tesco sim but followed instructions and the phone unlocked without problems, thanks for the instructions on using a paper clip to push the sim in as that part got me me stumped. Thanks again for the ulock
Hi I successfuly unlocked my phone by following the steps above. It was a uk phone locked to O2. put mu Orange sim in and no problems. Thanks again P.s If you don't have a paper clip to hand, use one of your girlfriends hair clips.. they're a little stronger.
