You need to call your service provider and get your Personal Unlock Code. Then they will send a signal to the phone to ask for the code and you have to enter it in order for your SIM card to be unlocked. Hope this helps :)

    No Problem, I had the same issue with my iPhone and my friend with his Droid. The service provider issues a security code for each sim card in case the phone is stolen so it can be locked. You have to verify your identity with them and they will give you the code.

I was trying to set a password to lock my phone, but it is saying wrong passwork and then there is a "PUK" password and it is saying, of course, wrong password and only 4 attempts left.....how...

You are trying the sim lock, not phone lock so the sim card is locked.
The PUK is sim password. You have to call your network service provider to get your PUK code. They can ask the SIM no. which is printed at the back of the SIM card.
Tell me in case of any problem.

My daughters phone says "pin blocked , enter PUK

The PUK code can be found in the packaging of the sim card when you first bought it.
Several wrong tries for a pin code can get the sim card blocked and only the PUK code can enable it for access. If you can't find the PUK code, you have to buy another sim card or if this is postpaid, you have to report it to your Telecom Operator.
