First, if your iPhone is carrier locked (as most iPhones are), you can only use a SIM card from the same carrier -- if you purchased a subsidized iPhone from AT&T, you can only use SIM cards from AT&T, for example.
If your phone is in a case, remove the case. Power off your phone by pressing the power button for several seconds and confirming the power off operation when the on-screen prompt appears.
On the top of the phone, just to the right of the headphone jack, is a small hole. Gently insert an unfolded paper clip or a short piece of thin wire into the hole and press the SIM release button. The SIM tray should pop out. Carefully remove the SIM tray, replace the SIM card and re-insert the SIM tray.
Now you should be able to power your phone back on and use your new SIM card.

My phone (A Samsung, model: SGH-A117) is asking for a PUK code and a new PIN code. I have looked on my SIM card, but there is no useful information. Please help.

PERMANENT UNLOCK CODE SAMSUNG SGH A117, T429, T729

Insert ANY unaccepted SIM card in the phone and then turn the phone on, follow the steps in 1 to 4 below to enter all the codes. The phone will states "Wrong card" at the end of step 2 and "network lock deactivated" at the end of step 4 if you do everything right so pls take your time to enter the code or follow the instruction correctly at each step. When entering some of the zeros at steps 3 and 4 your phone may display the zero as hyphen or minus (-), dont worry, just count when entering the zero to ensure you enter just the right numbers of zeros. Now let's begin... 1/ Put any unaccepted SIM card in your SAMSUNG SGH Phone, turn the phone on, it will display "WRONG CARD"

2/ At the wrong card screen, type *7465625*638*00000000*00000000#

3/ Now remove the battery with the SIM card, Put the battery back and turn the phone on again without the SIM card, it will display "Insert SIM card" 4/ At the insert SIM card screen/end of step 3 above type #7465625*638*00000000#

At the end of step 4 phone will show "network lock deactivated" 5/ Now Reinsert your unaccepted card or any other unaccepted SIM card in the phone and enjoy your unlocked phone!
