NUK (Network Unlock Key) is similar as NCK (Network Restriction Code). Both NCK and NUK have another name ----Network Key, a key comes from your service provider. It usually appears when you want to change the service provider company.
If your friend phone is no-longer under contract you should get this Network unlock code from the original service provider of the phone.
You can of course, at your own risk, also get the phone unlocked by a third party or buy a cheap and safer 'universal network unlock sim adapter'.

The SIM card must be of the same service. For example, you can't use an AT&T sim card on a T-Mobile phone. If they are the same service, your sim is not made to work with that phone. You will have to get a new sim at your local retailer.

Important: Stop if you receive an error message. The device may lock permanently if you enter the incorrect code multiple times.
  1. See if your phone is eligible to unlock: Mobile Wireless Device Unlocking.
  2. Contact Customer Care to request the Mobile Device Unlock code for your phone.
  3. Verify the IMEI by typing *#06#.
  4. Insert a Non-T-Mobile SIM & turn the phone on.
  5. The phone will automatically prompt you to enter the code into an empty field.
  6. Click/Tap in the empty field above the "Unlock & Dismiss" options (this will display a key pad on the screen).
  7. Input the unlock code provided by T-Mobile.
  8. Click/Tap Unlock.
  9. The phone will display Network Unlock Successful.

No service on my unlocked HTC Touch HD

Check that your o2 number is activated and in-service by using it on another handset or just call the o2 helpdesk to get your number activated if it is a new service,
If you can assess that your new o2 number is in service and the HTC Touch still does not work, then your handset has not been fully unlock as they are basically two types of locks:
1) The 'normal' Network lock that allows any 'Orange' SIMs to work on the device (basically unlocked by NUK code)
2) The 'nasty' SIM lock' that only allows a SINGLE number on a specific SIM card to work on the locked device.
In either cases, make sure that you get all restriction lifted.

Hope it helps: let me know how you go and good luck!
