Doesn't it ask u for a PUK code?....heres wat u gotta do....! Call up Customer Care....n get it! Btw, if u enter ur PUK wrong 3 times...ur sim will be permanently blocked!!....so be Careful!!
[ If ur a Vodafone customer, then u call up cust. care at 111....or, 9886098860...for any other fone!(toll free) ]
[ Its a Recorded msg mostly.... ]
Then, follow instructions and enter ur phone no.....They'll tell u ur PUK.... Enter ur PUK, The fone then asks u to enter ur new PIN no. ......n confirm it! If u wanna keep ur PIN code then it'll ask u for the new PIN dat u entered each time u switch on ur cell!! if u don wanna keep it, then go to Menu>Settings>n to whereva u disable ur PIN code....n try not to 4get ur PIN code..... If u can't remember it ....then keep it as four zeroes ( 0000 ).....this is usually the initial PIN no. when u get a new phone!
I do not have solution, but the same problem.
I was asked to enter PUK, which I did (I am 100% sure it is right, coz I am reading it from the card supplied with SIM) and then when asked to ener ew pin and to verify it, i get error code and back to entering PUK again.
It drives me crazy and I have run 5 attempts and 5 are left. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I have E72. I am think to myself if the PUK I am entering, although correct, is not taken corctly via kezboard (perhaps as characters instead of numbers on E72), but not able to verify that as enteries are not displayed when typed in, but straight away u c asterisks...
Pls if anyone can help, as I am basically not reachable on my phone.
HOLD ON!
You may enter wrong PIN three (3) times only. After that your PIN will be blocked!
To unblock, you need PUK. You can only enter wrong PUK ten (10) times. (This is as documented)
After entering correct PUK, you will be asked for NEW PIN.
So, when it says "PIN blocked. Enter PUK code", you must enter the PUK.If you correctly enter the PUK, it will asked for new PIN, by asking "Enter new PIN code:". Enter anything you want as your PIN. You will be asked to enter it twice (two times). From what I read from your post, you have done correctly, but you don't want to enter new PIN. There is no way SIM card/phone will use old PIN. The device doesn't know your PIN. So, you have to enter new PIN.
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 this solution a FixYa! rating if it helps you.
as youve entered the puk code, it asks for the new pin code, the default code was 1234 right? so if you are going to try the new pin code yu can either invent a new pin code or just enter the default code.
