When you got the SIM, it would have come with a PUK code printed either on the SIM holder or envelop.

You don't need to go to a store to get the 'PUK' (Provider UnlocK code): if you annot find your PUK code, just ring your SIM service provider Help Desk and they should give you the unique PUK code for your SIM for free.

Do not attempt to guess th PUK code as if you enter the wrong code too many times it will permanently and physically disabled your SIM.

Hope it helps.

Hello If your Sim is blocked, you can fix it right at your home, all you have to do is to make a phone call to the customer care of your Service provider and provide them with a few details esp the number present on the Sim card, they will give you the Pin Unblocking Code and that's all, your Sim will be unblocked.

I've tired to set the PIN code for my Nokia 6085 phone but I cannot. I've entered the PUK code but now it says, "Enter new PIN code:" What do I do? I've entered a code I wanted and other ones on my...

HOLD ON!
You may enter wrong PIN three (3) times only. After that your PIN will be blocked! To unblock, you need PUK. You can only enter wrong PUK ten (10) times. (This is as documented) After entering correct PUK, you will be asked for NEW PIN.

So, when it says "PIN blocked. Enter PUK code", you must enter the PUK. If you correctly enter the PUK, it will asked for new PIN, by asking "Enter new PIN code:". Enter anything you want as your PIN. You will be asked to enter it twice (two times).
From what I read from your post, you have done correctly, but you don't want to enter new PIN. There is no way SIM card/phone will use old PIN. The device doesn't know your PIN. So, you have to enter new PIN.
