SOURCE: UNBLOCK MY PUK CODE


PUK stands for 'Pin Unlock Code', and has to be entered if you've locked your SIM by repeatedly entering the wrong PIN code. If you're asked for a PUK code, you've had more goes at guessing your SIM card PIN code than you're allowed. You'll need to phone your network provider Customer Services for your PUK code to unlock the SIM. For security reasons, it's only the network operator that can legally provide you with a PUK code to unlock your SIM.With some phones you will get a cert card with your sim card and it might have the 8 digit PUK on it. if this has been entered 10 times or more incorrectly then you will need a new sim card

SOURCE: lg viewty unlock code

I had the same problem! In the end I rang virgin and they gave me the unlock code. First hold down the camera button and the lock button at the same time. This will take you to your key pad. Enter 2945#*990#. To be honest I cant remember what I selected after that I think it was unlock sim or something then it took me to a screen saying "enter NSCK. Remaining 10". Then I entered the number virgin gave me. I dont know if it was for my phone only but here it is:
2902945217800973. After I entered that it gave me a tick and then the handset reset and everything was exactly the same as before and I didnt loose my numbers or settings. I beleive remaining 10 means you have that many attempts before you get into serious trouble. I hope this works for you!

Cheers

SOURCE: LG Viewty Puk Code

HI,

PUK means "personal unlocking key" .

The PUK code is asked if you enter a wrong pin 3 times.

You need to call your phone service company, they can retrieve the puk code from a database
for free.

In your case you need to contact your SIM card phone provider technical support to unlock the SIM.


The PIN and PUK are related to the SIM card, not to the phone.

If you replace the SIM card with a different one, then the phone should not ask for the PUK anymore.

thank you,

Puk Code Lg cookie fresh

A Personal Unblocking Code (PUC) or Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) is used in GSM mobile phones and some smartcards to unblock a blocked card.

Most mobile telephones offer the feature of personal identification number (PIN) protection. After switching on the phone, if the PIN security function is not switched off, the user is requested to enter a 4-8 digit PIN enabling the phone's non-emergency calling functions. If the wrong PIN is typed in more than three times, either the SIM card, the device or both become locked. They can be reverted to their original unlocked state by entering a PUC, provided by the service operator through verification. If the wrong PUC is entered ten times in a row, the device will become permanently blocked and unrecoverable, requiring a new SIM card. Cellular phone users are therefore advised by most providers to keep their PUC written down in a safe place separate from the device.

What is a PUK?

A PUK code is the code that unblocks a blocked SIM card.
It's provided by your service provider.

From Wikipedia:
Most mobile telephones offer the feature of personal identification number(PIN) protection. After switching on the phone, if the PIN security function isactive, the user is requested to enter a 4-8 digit PIN enabling the phone'snon-emergency calling functions. If the wrong PIN is typed in more than threetimes, either the SIM card, the device or both become locked. They can bereverted to their original unlocked state by entering a PUC (PUK), provided bythe service operator through verification. If the wrong PUC (PUK) is enteredten times in a row, the device will become permanently blocked andunrecoverable, requiring a new SIM card. Cellular phone users are thereforeadvised by most providers to keep their PUC (PUK) written down in a safe placeseparate from the device. The PUC (PUK) is a SIM-specific code assigned by the service provider. It isnear-impossible to guess and enter it; thus, if you do not know your PUC (PUK)and are prompted for it, you should get it from your service provider.

My son has got5 his LG viewty GM360 today it was working fine but all of sudden phone has got blocked and asking for puk code which i dont know anything about. Please help Thanks

Usually you get asked for a PUK code when you have entered the wrong PIN a couple of times. You will need to apply to the service supplier that the phone (or SIM) came from to get the PUK.
