| I've got my unlock code, what do I do now? |
|
Now that you have got your unlock code, you need to enter the code to your phone. This is an easy process and is just like typing in a phone number. Just incase your having any difficulty here's a guide...
We would like to point out that if you enter the wrong code 5 times your phone will be hardlocked and you’ll need specialist help.
So if your phone gives you an error message after your first atempt please read the instructions below very carefully.
1. Your unlock code will look something like this: #pw+1234567890+1#
2. Power on your handset, without a sim card inserted
Your unlocking code will always start with #PW+ followed by a 10 or 15 digit numeric code and finally it will end with +1# or +5#.
|
| For example #PW+123456789012345+5# ... |
|
To bring up the +, press the * key two times To bring up the P, press the * key three times To bring up the W, press the * key four times
Once you have entered the code your phone will appear “Sim Restriction Off” on the screen. Your mobile is now unlocked to accept a sim from any other network.
If you do not see this message or something similar, follow the instructions as above but leave the Sim card inserted in the phone instead.
You only have 4 attempts at entering your code, after which the mobile will be hard locked and you will need to visit a phone specialist to have your phone unlocked via cable.
