Whats a puk blocked

samsung phone "PUK blocked Call SOS" - i have the PUK code but cant put it in as its not giving me any option other than call sos. how do i put the code in to unlock it.

Hi everyone

Every PUK code is unique so nobody can tell you your PUK number, but i will tell you what you can do!
1) If you still have your packet that your Sim Card came in, you should find your PUK number in there, if you don't have the packet, please read bellow.

2) You must get a phone that is on the same network as your phone and call the networks Customer Care and ask them for your PUK number, they will ask you for your phone number, then they will tell you your PUK number. Once you have done this, you will be able to reset your Pin number so you will be able to go into your phone again.

Please also remember to give me a good rating on my profile.

Kind regards

To obtain a puk code you will need to call your phones service provider.

Complete information :
The SIM card protects your subscription and not the phone from unauthorised users. If you change SIM cards you can still use your phone with a new SIM card. Most SIM cards are blocked at the time of purchase. If your SIM card lock is on you have to enter your PIN (Personal Identity Card) every time you turn on the phone.

If you enter the wrong password three times in a row the SIM card gets blocked. This is indicated by the message PIN Blocked To unblock this you need to enter your PUK

Note:
card (Personal Unblocking Key). Your PIN and PUK is supplied by your service provider. You can edit your PIN and select a new four to eight digit number

• If the Message Codes do not match appears when you edit your PIN you entered the new PIN incorrectly.
• If the message Wrong PIN followed by Old PIN appears then it means that you have entered the old PIN incorrectly.
  

To unblock your SIM card:

1. When PIN Blocked appears enter your PUK > OK
2. Enter a new four to eight PIN > OK
3. Re-enter the new PIN to confirm > OK
   

To edit your PIN:

1. > Settings > the General tab > Security > Locks > SIM Protection > Change PIN
2. Enter your PIN > OK
3. Enter a new four to eight digit PIN to confirm > OK
   

To turn the SIM card On /Off

1. > Settings > the General tab > Security > Locks > SIM Protection > Protection and select On or Off
2. Enter your PIN > OK
   

if you enter the wrong pin code for 3 times your sim will get blocked ...
it will ask for the puk code ...
then you must call to the customer care of your network provider and you must tell them that your pin got blocked you want the puk code ...
they may ask for the details of your sim card be sure to tell it ..

then they will provide the puk code note it down and enter into it ..
your sim will get unlocked...

note :
if you enter the wrong puk code for more than 3 or 10 times the sim will get fully blocked if then you must contact to network provider shoppe....

puk number is given by the network provider ....

i think you blocked the pin code by entering the wrong pin code for 3 times so it is asking for the puk code ..

to get puk code you must follow these steps :

1. call to your network provider customer care

2. tell them that your pin code got blocked you want puk code

3. if they ask any details about the sim card owner you answer that one ...

4. then make a note of the puk code and enter in to your cell

note :
if you enter the wrong puk code for more than 3 or 10 times your sim will get fully blocked you must purchase the duplicate sim card or you must contact the network provider shoppe ...

puk is for the sim card buy new sim card...security code is for mobile

hi

as youve entered the puk code, it asks for the new pin code, the default code was 1234 right? so if you are going to try the new pin code yu can either invent a new pin code or just enter the default code.

hope this helps.

A PUK CODE SHOULD BE CALLING YOUR MOBILE PROVIDER FOR THAT...OR THE SIM-CARD ENVELOPE, SHOULD HAVE THAT PUK CODE IN THERE
