The PUK code is a code associated with the SIM card and not with the phone.

You have only two ways to get rid of the PUK code. Either you replace the SIM card , or you call phone provider that issued the sim cadr (eg. At&T, Virgin, Tmobile , Vodafone, Telecom etc.)

PUK means "personal unlocking key" .

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

You need to call the phone company that released the SIM card, they can retrieve the PUK code from a database for free.

In your case you need to contact your SIM card 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 will not ask for the PUK anymore.eee

If you have lost your pin then you can enter the pin 3 times, util the PUK lock appears. Then you unlock the PUK calling the phone company that provided the SIM card inside your phone (eg Vodafone, Telecom, Tmobile, Orange, AT&T etc.).

Calling the phone company is the standard procedure to unlock a SIM card, however, if you do not want to call the company you can just replace the SIM card with one compatible with the phone, as PIN and PUK codes are related to SIM, and not to the phone.

Actually my sim is lock andasking for puk number

To unlock your cellular phone you will need to enter the code. This code is just a calculation of IMEI number of your phone. To find your phones IMEI number -type *#06# into your phone or look under the phone battery.

There are different online services that will calculate the unlock code for your IMEI number.
I can recommend this one (cheap and reliable).


Click here to unlock your Samsung SGH-D500



I would not suggest to share your IMEI number on free forums like this.

SGH-D500 Cellular Phone: my samsung e 250 asking me for a puk code. how can...

A request for a PUK code ("Personal Unlocking Key") will appear on your phone if your SIM card PIN code is entered 3 consecutive times incorrectly.

Your SIM card will then become "PUKed" or Blocked. This is a security measure to protect your service.

You need to call the Customer Service department of your cell phone provider and they will give you the PUK code which will unblock your SIM card.

My phone needs a puk code and i dont know what it is

HI If you are asking for pin contact your service provider , he will give you a default pin . If you try pin more than few predefined no of times your phone will ask PUK code which can also be given only by your service provider which is specific for each and every mobile number . Donot try PUK code many times or else your sim will be blocked and you will need a new sim.
Contact your sim customer care department over phone. Its free of cost to get the pin or puk no.

Go to the nearest service outlet of your service provider they can also help you.

There is no other go than the above procedure only your service provider can give it nobody else in this world nor any software.

Puk code of +639266271609

The Puk number depends on the pin lock on the sim, the phone will still work with a different Sim card.

To unlock the Puk code you need to call the contact number for the service provider for your Sim. Alternatively you can unlock the PUK code at a local shop for a small fee, £10 or £20 in UK.

To unlock PUK, call the company that branded your Sim card.

PHONE LOCK

You should have a PUK number, on the plastic card where your sim card was. Enter 2-3 more pin numbers and your phone will lock itself and request the PUK number... tap it in and hey! presto.

PUK number is available from your service provider.

If you mean unlock sim, to make your phone work on any network. Most shops will do it for you for a couple of £s.
