PLEASE HELP!!!! We have just moved to Indonesia and while my husband is away on a business trip, he has given me and the kids his Samsung (spare) phone so we can call each other. It is asking me for a PUK code after I entered the wrong pin several times. PLEASE help!! I have no land line for himn to call us on (takes a while to connect here in Indo) and I can't retrieve his phone number from this damn phone until I can unlock it!!!! I'm really panicking and feel cut off from him!
Surely some techno minded guru out there can help me?
It is a Samsung SGH-x820
Now nothing happens when I try and turn the phone on, so I charged it until it said battery full, but the screen stays black and I can't see anything. Have I fried the SIM by trying too many times? Please don't tell me I have!
Thanks, Sharon

Re: sgh-x820 locked up!
Hi
I don't think your sim card is fried, you can try it in ant other phone.
Regarding the PUK number, that you can get from your service provider, by phoning the customer care centre.
Regarding your husbands phone number, this depends if it was saved on the phone or the sim. if it was saved on the phone, you can retrieve it by putting someone elses sim in your phone and switching it on, then go to contacts and get it there. If it was on the sim, you will need to get the PUK number first to unblock the sim. If you still have the sim pack, you can get the PUK number from there.
Hope you get it right
Regards
