SOURCE: emergency calls only and not showing service provider

sounds like either your sim card isnt inserted correctly, or the slots arent turned on. sim card slot 2 is the slot closest to the phone, gold chip faces up, sim card slot one is slightly elevetaed off the phone, gold chip faces down. make sure it is inserted all the way down. perss fimly. then go to SETTINGS>DUAL SIM SETTINGS>DUAL SIM OPEN>CLICK OK. This opens up both sim card slots. after you find out which slot you are going to use, you can repeat these steps and only have opened the one you are using.

SOURCE: my sim card is locked and i want it unlocked

ouch.... you have to go to your cellular provider to get you a new PUK # and then you can use your phone again. If you keep trying to put the 4 digit pass code it will fry the sim card !!!

SOURCE: My tracfone disp allows emergency calls only.

The same thing happened to me. Take the battery and SIM card out of the phone, then simply put them back in and turn the phone back on. Fixed the problem for me.

SOURCE: i bought a unlock code

First you need to unlock your phone before you put tracfone sim card on that phone. Make sure you have appropriate LG neon GT365 unlock code example : if your old sim card using t-mobile you must use t-mobile unlock code for your phone not tracfone. You can get lg unlock code from online seller with lower price and quick turnaround.

I have an LG Sentio and I do not know what my PUK code is, now my phone is locked and I can only do emergency calls.

A PUK (PIN Unlock Key) code is required to unlock SIM cards that have become locked following three successive incorrect PIN entries. If your SIM card becomes locked, you will need to get a PUK code from AT&T to unlock your SIM card.

You can obtain your phone's PUK code from AT&T by:
To get your phone's PUK code online:
  1. Log in to your myWireless Account.
  2. Select My Services under My Account.
  3. From the My Services screen, select My Phone/Device.
  4. Select Unblock SIM Card.
  5. The Unblock SIM screen will display your PUK code.

Once you receive your PUK code, you will need to enter it into your phone to set a new PIN code.

Hope this helps-
