Hi, PUK means "Personal Unlocking Key" and it is asked if you enter wrong pin for three times. You are then given 10 attempts to enter the PUK. (it is printed on the voucher of sim card when you have purchased the sim) Your sim card will be blocked permanently if you still entered incorrect PUK code after the 10th attempt.
And if ever you lost the voucher you have only 2 ways to get rid of the PUK code:
1. Replace the sim card or 2. Call the phone company that released the sim card. They will give you the PUK code once you give them your account details and they have confirmed your identity. --Don't worry, PIN/PUK is not related to the phone, it's from the SIM card.
Hope this can help you,GoodLuck=)

Please help me I can't get into my cellphone samsung at&t like I say PUK blocked

PUK code is a SIM specific code assigned by your service provider so call Customer care and state the problem then they will ask for some codes written on you SIM card. Few people use PIN locking system to lock their phone to avoid un-authorised access. Though this is a good option, it ****** you off sometime. Three wrong entry of PIN code will result in SIM blocking. Once SIM gets blocked, phone starts asking PUK code to enter. If you again enter wrong code for three times, SIM gets completely blocked. You have to walk into your service provider outlet to get a replacement SIM card.
I think it may help you.

I lost my samsung at&t go phone sgh-a177 series for a couple of months and today i found it. the only problem is, i have a phone lock code to unlock my phone but i can't remember what it is. can...

Don't worry you can unlock samsung a177 password using PUK code, enter any password until your phone request your puk code then insert your puk code. But i doubt this since your sim card and your phone already lost for a couple month maybe your sim already blocked too so try to use samsung network unlock code or reflash your phone to nearest local mobile phone repair shop.

SAMSUNG SGH-E250 puk blocked

Hi everyone

Every PUK code is unique so nobody can tell you your PUK number, but i will tell you what you can do!
1) If you still have your packet that your Sim Card came in, you should find your PUK number in there, if you don't have the packet, please read bellow.

2) You must get a phone that is on the same network as your phone and call the networks Customer Care and ask them for your PUK number, they will ask you for your phone number, then they will tell you your PUK number. Once you have done this, you will be able to reset your Pin number so you will be able to go into your phone again.

Please also remember to give me a good rating on my profile.

Kind regards
